Tiger Might Demon King swinged his heavy hammer with ruthless force. The blow crashed down as Ling Feng raised his sword to block it, but he was still blasted backward by the impact. Bai Linger was sent flying alongside him, both of them slamming hard into the ground. "What terrifying strength!" Ling Feng's right arm trembled violently. This was the power of a peak Demon King. It was completely beyond what he could resist! Tiger Might Demon King sneered, eyes locked onto Ling Feng. His hammer smashed down toward Ling Feng's arm. "Boy, didn't you act all arrogant before? Weren't you so sure of yourself just because the Purple Dragon Envoy backed you? Heh. Let me tell you something. I've got the Silver Wolf Demon Emperor behind me. That wench Bai Su means nothing to me." The hammer strike tore through the air, stirring up winds so powerful that even the void trembled. In that split-second, Ling Feng condensed the Heavenly Dao Divine Inscription. The Tiger Might Demon King was instantly caught within the reversed laws. For the moment, he could no longer attack his target properly. Disoriented, he spun around in confusion. At the same time, Ling Feng used the power of the Terrifying Gaze to put Bai Linger into a deep unconscious state. From that point on, everything became simple. Tiger Might Demon King was fully trapped within the Reality Reversal rule. Unable to escape, Ling Feng immediately summoned the Despicable Donkey. With Ling Feng's current strength, killing a peak Demon King was nearly impossible, even with the Heaven-Slaying Sword Art. The Tiger Might Demon King's body was simply too monstrous in durability. "You brat. This divine beast has practically become your personal hitman!" Despicable Donkey looked at Ling Feng with irritation and mumbled under his breath. "You can have all the treasures on Tiger Might Demon King's body." Ling Feng rolled his eyes. After spending so much time with the Despicable Donkey, he could already guess what the beast was scheming just by the way he twitched his rear. As expected, the Despicable Donkey grinned wide, revealing his large, gleaming teeth. He chuckled and said, "Now you're talking!" Then he swung his hoof. Tiger Might Demon King's skull burst open on the spot. Even under normal conditions, Despicable Donkey could easily kill a peak Demon King without breaking a sweat. And now, with the Tiger Might Demon King trapped in the Reality Reversal rule and completely disoriented, he could not even tell whether the Despicable Donkey's attack came from the front or the back. His defense lagged for a split-second. That was all it took. Death came instantly. "This power of yours is seriously useful!" Despicable Donkey blew the blood off his hoof and grinned. "If this divine beast could use that Reality Reversal ability, forget Demon Emperors. This divine beast would challenge a Demon Ruler just for the fun of it!" "Oh?" Ling Feng curled his lip. "The Canglong Demon Ruler is right in the Canglong Sanctum. Want to spar with him?" The Despicable Donkey flushed and quickly muttered, "This divine beast always conducts himself with humility." Ling Feng shot him a glare and turned to look at Bai Linger. At the critical moment, this demon girl had stood her ground, which was commendable. Still, she was not of his race. He could not reveal his identity or true purpose to her. Despicable Donkey unceremoniously stripped every valuable item from the Tiger Might Demon King's body. Only after taking everything did he return contentedly to the Five Elements Heavenly Palace. Ling Feng then woke Bai Linger. He needed a witness to confirm the death of the Tiger Might Demon King. Before long, Bai Linger slowly regained consciousness. As soon as she opened her eyes and saw Ling Feng, she gasped in surprise. "It's me," Ling Feng said calmly as he helped her sit up. "It's over. You're safe now." Bai Linger looked at him with uncertainty, clearly suspicious of his explanation. How could an early-tier Demon Lord possibly survive against a peak Demon King, much less defeat him? But with no one else around and both of them unharmed, it seemed the only possibility was that Ling Feng had killed the Tiger Might Demon King. Unless she believed she had somehow gone berserk and killed him in her sleep. "You're really not hurt?" Bai Linger bit her lip and asked softly. Ling Feng rubbed the bridge of his nose and replied with a casual lie. "To take out that old bastard, I burned two hundred years of life essence and used a secret art. Only then was I able to turn the tide. Don't be fooled by how calm I look. I actually sacrificed two centuries of life essence!" Ling Feng pursed his lips. It was hard to believe that a mere Demon Lord could kill a peak Demon King. But if he claimed to have used a life-burning secret technique to unleash a powerful attack, the explanation would hold up. To his surprise, Bai Linger immediately threw herself into his arms, eyes brimming with tears. "Long Fei. You burned two hundred years of life essence just to save me?" Ling Feng's face darkened. What kind of logic is this? His lips twitched slightly. He had no idea how this demon girl's mind worked. Why assume he burned his life essence for her? Couldn't it have just been for self defence? Ling Feng quickly pushed her away, feeling his face grow warm. "Well. Ahem. It was the right thing to do." "Long Fei, thank you." Bai Linger trembled slightly. If not for Long Fei, she might already have been defiled by the Tiger Might Demon King. "It's alright. Everything's fine now." Ling Feng looked a little uncomfortable. Bai Linger clenched her teeth and glanced at him with a conflicted expression. "Sorry, Long Fei. I forgot that you prefer men. Don't worry. From now on, I'll treat you as my dearest sister!" Ling Feng nearly choked and broke into a violent cough. Faced with that strange gaze of hers, he could only stay silent. Honestly, if he admitted he was a straight man, and she decided to throw herself at him, he might actually make a mistake. He was only human, after all! Seeing Ling Feng remain silent, Bai Linger narrowed her eyes with disappointment. She wasn't foolish. Of course she could tell Ling Feng was a perfectly normal man. But he would rather let her believe he liked men than explain himself to her. This bastard... Am I really that unappealing? She knew she was far from plain. In the entire Purple Dragon Hall, even throughout the Canglong Sanctum, countless demon geniuses had fallen head over heels for her! "Hmph! Long Fei, I swear I'll make you fall for me!" Ling Feng had no idea. His cold attitude only made Bai Linger more determined to conquer him. After a few more words of reassurance, Bai Linger finally calmed down. Fuming, she said she would report everything that happened today to her mother. With that, the two left the cave and went their separate ways.
