A Demon's Journey

After the Nine Yin Saintess arrived near the Crario City, she kept flaring her Ardor to allow Shun to sense her.

The Archangels and the Glerian Kingdom's Emperor Ranked Experts sensed her presence. They instantly halted their battle and stared in her direction.

Emperor-Ranked Experts were merely ants in front of a God-Ranked Experts! Bryon, the Saber Emperor, and the Archangels wanted to know why a God-Ranked Expert had arrived in this kingdom.

The Archangels wondered whether the appearance of this God-Ranked Expert was related to the Radiant God. This signified that, despite his diligence and precaution, the Radiant God's presence was detected by human experts when he visited the Frascoia Continent.

The Archangels let out a relieved sigh as they realized that this God-Ranked Expert wasn't after them. However, the Archangels weren't sure how long this God-Ranked Expert would ignore them.

They fled from the battlefield while noticing that the Saber Emperor and Bryon were still flabbergasted by the presence of a God-Ranked Expert in the Glerian Kingdom.

Shun immediately met with the Nine Yin Saintess and notified her that he was the one who contacted Qin Feng.

The Nine Yin Saintess readily accepted his words as his appearance matched the description she received from Qin Lei, the Current Emperor of the Great Qin Empire.

The Nine Yin Saintess sensed the pure power of stars from Shun. She was greatly astonished and wondered 'Is this a kid chosen by a star? But even they don't have such pure star energy within them? Who is this kid?'

In all her life, the Nine Yin Saintess had never encountered a Prince of Stars before. The Star Lineage had nearly vanished from the Frascoia Continent after the end of the Ancient Era.

Nine Yin Saintess did encounter other members of the Star Lineage. But this was the first time someone from this lineage and given her such an unfathomable feeling.

"These people recognize the Demon God we are hunting," Shun spoke calmly. His two comrades felt extremely suppressed as they faced Nine Yin Saintess. Even speaking had become an arduous task for them.

Nine Yin Saintess was rather familiar with this reaction. She coldly nodded before speaking, "How should we find him?"

Shun immediately answered her, "My comrades witnessed his fight against another warrior. And he displayed the power of a 6 Star Warrior. So, I guess the first thing we should do is search for all the 6 Star Warriors in the area. There can't be too many if we filter out the ones who are fighting at this moment."

The Nine Yin Saintess nodded and responded calmly, "Alright. I will extend my senses to cover the Glerian Kingdom. We can widen the search range accordingly."

Shun's eyebrows twitched upon hearing those words. He found it unbelievable that this woman's sensing range could cover the entire Glerian Kingdom and even more. And more so, she was speaking so casually as if this was a very normal thing.

The Nine Yin Saintess enjoyed Shun's look of surprise but kept her expression impassive.

It didn't take long for her to detect all the 6 Star Warriors in the Glerian Kingdom. Nine Yin Saintess ignored the Celestials and focused mainly on the humans.

According to the information she had received, Azaroth had reincarnated into a human body. So, it made sense that he was a human.

However, as the Nine Yin Saintess focused on all the 6 Star Warriors, she frowned as she sensed the presence of Demonic Ardor from a human.

It was extremely faint, and that trace was rapidly vanishing. Nine Yin Saintess could perceive that faint Demonic Ardor only because Azaroth had recently employed Demonic Ardor to trigger the Frozen Hell Longbow.

"I have a guess. Come along and see if it's our target or not," Nine Yin Saintess wasn't asking them but rather stating it.

She employed a Spatial Technique and warped to the location, just a few miles high in the air.

Shun's comrades saw Azaroth and immediately pointed in his direction, "That's the guy! He was the one fighting Tronte! He was also the one who forced the Radiant God to return to Heaven!"

The Nine Yin Saintess smiled a bit upon hearing those words. She cocked her head in Shun's direction and spoke, "Looks like we have our target."

"Yes," Shun nodded his head. He then turned to his comrades, "You both can go now. Make sure to not approach this location!"

His comrades lightly bowed in Nine Yin Saintess's direction before fleeing in the opposite direction at their quickest speed.

The Nine Yin Saintess raised her brow in confusion, "You are going to accompany me to the target? I can handle it from here."

"I know. I don't doubt your ability. It's just that I have been having an invisible battle against this guy for a very long time, and I want to have a short talk with him," Shun spoke with a rather pleading look.

The Nine Yin Saintess thought for a bit before agreeing to his request and allowing him to accompany her.

Thus, they reached their current situation.

Nine Yin Saintess and Shun gazed at Azaroth rather cautiously. Azaroth noticed their wariness and smiled, "You don't dare to approach me even while possessing such a great advantage over me. Do I scare you that much, Inquisitor Fox?"

Azaroth addressed Shun first, even in the presence of the Nine Yin Saintess. It demonstrated his high regard for him.

Shun had managed to counter all his schemes in the Sinyalian Kingdom. Moreover, he did it so covertly that Azaroth couldn't find his true identity even through Bianca and Josephine's influence. This was no easy task!

"...Yes, you truly do, Azaroth," Shun didn't shy away from admitting that he was scared of Azaroth.

At this moment, Azaroth had already activated his Mystic Eyes of Perception and noticed that just a few strands of the Golden Streams passed through his body. This indicated that the mysterious Fate Energy considered Shun as a typical human despite Shun's Star Lineage.

He turned to face the Nine Yin Saintess. Typically, a King-Ranked Warrior could never garner anything from a God-Ranked Expert. But Azaroth was no normal King-Ranked Warrior.

His Mystic Eyes of Perception had already undergone a mutation and easily saw through the Nine Yin Saintess. She possessed a lot of strands of Golden Streams, even greater than Tryfon Rellas, who held millions of Golden Streams within his body.

He whispered, "So, you are cultivating a modified version of the Nine Yin Cultivation Art? This seems even better than the one I know."

Those whispers sent a shiver down the Nine Yin Saintess's spine. She didn't know how but Azaroth seemed to have analyzed her cultivation art! This was a terrifying skill to copy a cultivation art just by observing the other person!

"You are related to the Nine Yin Empress, right? I can sense a trace of her presence through you," Azaroth asked, a bit amused.

Meanwhile, the Nine Yin Saintess soon responded while maintaining a cold expression, "Yes. She is my Ancestor and the founder of my Nine Yin Sect."

"I see," Azaroth whispered softly.

"As one of the guardians of humanity, I will slay you here today! You are a respectable figure from the Ancient War. Do you have any last words?" Nine Yin Saintess spoke those words filled with heroism and determination.

Azaroth's smile widened at those words. He looked at Shun and spoke, "I hope you are prepared for the future, Inquisitor Fox. This won't be our last meeting."

Shun frowned underneath his mask upon hearing those words. He immediately asked Azaroth, "And what do you mean by that? Are you implying that you won't die here today? Or is this merely a clone, and you are stalling to allow your main body to escape?"

Azaroth merely smiled at that question and refused to speak.

Nine Yin Saintess spoke up with a sneer, "Hmph. If that's what you are counting on, then you are going to be disappointed. I was chosen for this mission precisely due to my high level in sensing Spiritual Energy."
