Chapter 153: The Broken Devil Pillar
Xidi's actions clearly indicated his unwillingness to allow Lin Ze to intervene.
Lin Ze, however, remained unfazed, sensing no hostility from Xidi.
Meanwhile, within the barrier, under Xidi's questioning, Cai'er slowly spoke, "Sister, it was indeed us who informed Palace Master Ling Xiao about Ye Xiaolei's situation, but I never expected them to act this way."
In reality, it wasn't Cai'er who reported the incident, but Wang Yuanyuan. But at the time, Cai'er hadn't anticipated Ling Xiao's decisive response.
"What did you just call me?"
But Xidi wasn't concerned with Ling Xiao at the moment. She hadn't intended to do anything to Cai'er; she had simply seen her follow her and wanted to piss her off.
However, Cai'er's words, "Sister," resonated deeply.
Cai'er paused, then said, "Sister... Sister..."
"Hmm, that's a good name. You and Lin Ze should call me that from now on."
"Oh, oh..." Cai'er replied instinctively.
"Okay, don't worry. I'm here, and everything will be fine. I can sense several auras heading this way. You'd better not get involved. Leave now."
Cai'er was momentarily stunned by Xidi's words. Was Xidi concerned about her?
But Cai'er also understood that she couldn't get involved right now. With so many powerful people present, she would only be a hindrance.
"Then, be careful," Cai'er said.
But just as Cai'er was about to turn and leave, Xidi spoke again, "Cai'er, I wasn't kidding. I can come pick you up whenever you want."
Cai'er, about to leave, paused after hearing Xidi's words.
After a moment, she slowly said, "I'll think about it."
As she finished speaking, Cai'er glanced at Lin Ze in the distance, and then disappeared.
As Cai'er left, Xidi appeared beside Lin Ze and the others.
Looking down at Long Xingyu, who was already unaware of his own fate, Xidi spoke slowly.
"Let's go, let's continue on our journey."
Sidi prepared to retract the Demon Pillar.
The massive Demon Pillar, towering over the heavens, could be seen slowly rising.
But just then, a beam of light imbued with destructive energy blasted towards the slowly rising Demon Pillar.
Faced with this sudden attack, Sidi initially dismissed it.
After all, the Demon Pillar couldn't be destroyed by ordinary attacks.
Boom!
With a resounding roar, a crack appeared in the previously indestructible Demon Pillar!
Sidi, the Demon Goddess of Love, who had already formed a pact with the Demon Pillar, was immediately struck back by the damage.
Her spiritual energy suddenly became chaotic, and a trickle of blood flowed from the corner of her mouth.
"What's wrong with you?" Seeing the blood oozing from Sidi's mouth, Lin Ze instinctively stepped forward to support her and inquired.
Seeing Lin Ze's anxious expression, Sidi was taken aback for a moment, then forced a smile and said, "Don't worry, I'm fine."
Sidi wiped the blood from the corner of her mouth and looked up at the Demon Pillar, which had been breached by the blow, in disbelief.
"I can't believe this attack could actually damage the Demon Pillar!"
"If this force were any stronger, I'm afraid the Love Demon Pillar would have been severed!" Sidi said solemnly.
As Sidi spoke, the expressions of everyone present changed drastically.
The Demon Pillar's indestructibility was well-known, and it was the reason the demons had dominated the Holy Demon Continent for thousands of years.
As long as the Demon Pillar existed, the demons could be resurrected and were indestructible.
However, if the Demon Pillar were destroyed, the chain reaction would be devastating.
Not only would the demons contracted with it be implicated and killed, but even the races enslaved by the demons would be decimated.
As everyone was conversing, another volley of light, imbued with the aura of destruction, blasted towards the still-rising Demon Pillar.
Seeing this, Sidi instinctively tried to stop it, but just as she tried to mobilize her spiritual energy, a trace of blood spurted from the corner of her mouth.
Clearly, the backlash from the recent destruction of the Demon Pillar had severely injured Sidi.
The volley of light, imbued with the aura of destruction, was about to strike the Demon Pillar once again.
"You're looking for death!"
Lin Ze was now furious. He reached out and plucked out the moonlit void nearby. A radiant blade, fused with all of Lin Ze's spiritual energy, slashed out, intercepting the volley of light imbued with destructive energy.
Just as Lin Ze was about to pull out the hidden attacker, Xidi suddenly grabbed his wrist.
"Don't chase them! There are Ninth-Rank experts heading this way. I'm injured now. If they surround us, we'll all have to stay here."
Lin Ze watched the Love Demon Pillar completely disappear into the clouds, vanishing from view.
Looking at Xidi, who was already seriously injured, he could only suppress his anger.
"Let's go."
Lin Ze picked up Xidi and headed towards the demon territory.
Lin Ze could sense that he wasn't incapable of dealing with the attack, but as Xidi had said, there were several Ninth-Rank experts heading their way. Even if he had the strength to fight them, Xidi and Leng Xiao didn't.
Lin Ze remembered these two sneak attacks.
He could ignore the other demons, but not the people around him!
At the same time, not long after Lin Ze left, six Ninth-Rank experts arrived one after another. If Lin Ze and the others were there, they would definitely discover who they were.
They were the "Demon God's Fall" Demon Hunters, one of the only two title-level demon hunting groups currently active in the demon clan.
"Damn it! They got away!" one of the hot-tempered warriors exclaimed angrily.
"The captain has two men under him!" a thoughtful cleric from the group suddenly spoke up.
Everyone followed her gaze and saw a young knight treating another knight beneath a large tree.
These two men were none other than Long Haochen and the critically injured, near-death Long Xingyu.
"You and I will go down and take a look. The rest of you should go after the Devil of Love, Sidi," commanded Chen Zidian, the leader of the Demon Hunters.
Upon receiving the order, the others hurriedly chased in the direction where Lin Ze and the others had disappeared.
Chen Zidian and the cleric from the Demon Hunters flashed and appeared beside Long Haochen.
Upon seeing the man drenched in blood was Long Xingyu, their faces changed drastically. Before Chen Zidian could say anything, a ninth-level healing spell struck Long Xingyu.
The penetrating wounds on his body were healing at a speed visible to the naked eye.
