Chapter 423 - A Group of Fathers (2/2)

Shen Ying, on the other hand, did not seem to have heard him. She continued to stare at her screen, oblivious to the romance taking place just beside her. She was frowning, obviously deep in thought.

“Exalted Goddess, what is that?” Little Black could not help but ask. “Why are there invisible items that even our divine perceptions cannot detect? Aren’t we just dealing with the true form of that layer of ice?” How come they are now being attacked?”

Shen Ying flicked her wrist. The true form…

Suddenly, she thought of something. She tapped the screen once again and a flurry of images appeared. Shen Ying narrowed her eyes. Indeed, the true form of that thing was not ice – it was light!

She raised her head to look at the group of people. She had not noticed before, but now she discovered that the only people who were getting injured were the Celestial Emperors. The demons and Skyfiends, on the other hand, were perfectly fine. It was almost as if the thing was avoiding them. Shen Ying’s eyes brightened as she turned back to face Little Black.

“Hey, Little Green?”

“…” Who is Little Green?

“Little Dog? Little Elephant? Little Whatever? You know I’m talking to you!”

“… I’m Little Black.” Oh, how his heart hurt! Why were the nicknames that the Exalted Goddess was coming up with getting more and more unusual?

“Use demonic Qi to cover up this entire area.” Shen Ying gesture toward their surroundings. “Don’t leave even a bit of light. You can do that, right?”

Little Black paused. Although he did not quite understand what she was talking about, he nodded. “I’ll try my best.”

He shot a look at Yu Hong, and tightened his hold on her hand. Then, he let go and flew off. A moment later, loads of demonic Qi flowed out of his body. They covered the sky like dark clouds on a stormy day. It was noontime, yet the afternoon light seemed to have disappeared. Instead, a chilling aura filled the air.

“Demonic Qi!” The Celestial Emperors exclaimed. “Why is Demon King Little Black suddenly-”

“Wait! Everyone, look!” Someone shouted.

Everyone looked and saw the originally “invisible” figures begin to take shape. Now that everything was dark, they could faintly see blur human figures flying around. Although their features were unclear, they were pretty sure they looked like humans.

All the Celestial Emperors immediately reacted.

“Quick, use your demonic Qi to force them to show themselves.”

The ten Skyfiends activated their own demonic Qi, which they earlier held back for fear of harming the Celestial Emperors. Now that they knew their demonic Qi could force the formless creatures to show themselves, they did not bother holding back any longer.

A wealth of demonic Qi filled the area. Coupled with the fact that they were already closer to the demonic realm in the first place, it took them less than a minute to cause everything to darken and for the demonic Qi to thicken.

The blurred figures in the air were getting clearer and clearer. They could slowly make out their silhouettes, their figures, their features…

When they could finally make out the human figures around them, every single person in the group widened his eyes in disbelief. Together, they shouted.

“Lonemoon!”

It was Father Niu! Many, many Father Nius!
