Ethereal World: Vicious Cannon Fodder's Immortality Road

"Calm down, why are you reacting so fiercely?"

"Should I react calmly after being told this?" He roared like a young tiger ready to strike. ƒгeewёbnovel.com

"Look, you’re still a pitiful kid who can’t stand being criticized." Shenlian Yingyue nodded as if she understood why he was like this.

"Y-you!!! Woman, you’re looking for death!" Run Jue’s delicate face turned red like a tomato. He pushed her against the wall, his tall body towering over her as if he wanted to suffocate her.

Shenlian Yingyue didn’t notice his weird posture of getting close to her. She forgot that each of the protagonists here had a cleanliness fetish and hated being close to others.

Run Chu was stunned. Her brother never took the initiative to get close to anyone except her, let alone have skin contact like this. Why was he pressing his body against hers?

"You want to be a real man and earn your sister’s recognition? The way you act ruins your image. No wonder your sister is with Shen Xian. You’re immature and short-tempered." Shenlian Yingyue knew her words hurt him, but she preferred telling the painful truth rather than lying to him, letting him fall into his own fake fantasy and get hurt later when the truth came out.

Run Jue glared at her fiercely, as if he wanted to swallow her alive, but he couldn’t deny the painful truth. He wanted to be a real man, but once he became one, he could not get close to his sister.

Unlike most female demons here who lost their virginity as soon as they came of age and slept with male demons for fun, his sister cherished her body like jade for Shen Xian.

She didn’t like talking to other men except Shen Xian, let alone allowing them to flirt with her. Once she realized he had grown up, she would distance herself from him.

Shenlian Yingyue seemed to see through his thoughts, but she had no obligation to comfort him. She didn’t want to interfere with anyone’s life. Their stories were destined to be written by their own hands, not hers.

"I’ll say it again—I won’t hand it over. I know you’re despicable, full of tricks and schemes, but at the same time, you’re someone who disdains forcing the weak to hand over their belongings. That would make you lose interest easily since you prefer fighting for what you want. You want that thing? Come to me later. Right now, I am not your opponent, but soon, I will be able to defeat you." Shenlian Yingyue’s words made everyone’s lips twitch.

She was scolding people with a sincere expression while simultaneously praising them with an expressionless one.

Run Chu’s lips wouldn’t stop twitching. She had never been so speechless in her life. She was scolded, praised, and understood by a woman she had looked down on.

"You’re such a sharp-witted one. I will forgive you for our past grudge. Five years. I’ll give you five years. If by then you’re still not strong enough to fight me, don’t blame me for being despicable, because not only will I take everything from you, but I will also return the injuries you’ve caused me in the past." Run Chu laughed in a good mood.

Shenlian Yingyue nodded and glanced at Di Xiuyu, who was breathing weakly. "You’re already despicable. I don’t have any words left to scold you anymore."

"Will you stop scolding my sister with your expressionless face? Do you want to die fast?" Run Jue’s anger flared up.

"Who in the world wants to die fast when their goals are yet to be achieved? What kind of question are you asking?" Shenlian Yingyue was puzzled. "Besides, how long are you going to press against me? My husbands will be jealous. I have a cleanliness fetish too."

She couldn’t push him away, knowing that it would only make him pounce on her more, so she let him willingly distance himself.

Run Jue: "....."

He immediately got off her as if she were a plague. He hurriedly looked at Run Chu’s expression, but Run Chu ignored him, focusing on Shenlian Yingyue.

Run Chu’s face turned black. "She deserves it! Does she think she’s the favored Daughter of Destiny or what? She plays with people in her palm, takes them for fools, and provokes conflict everywhere with her innocent expression."

"If you want to live five years longer, stay as far away from Di Xiuyu as possible." Shenlian Yingyue looked at the wounds on Di Xiuyu’s face.

These wounds would not disfigure her. The heroine had a lot of treasures. It was useless to ruin her appearance. Even if Run Chu were to pull out Di Xiuyu’s bones and spiritual root, it would only grant Di Xiuyu more opportunities to grow stronger because heaven favored her.

"I don’t believe it!" Run Chu shook her head with a cold face. His Majesty had also warned her not to provoke Di Xiuyu, but she was blinded by jealousy and didn’t want to obey his warning.

She walked toward Di Xiuyu, spiritual power appearing in her palm. It was ice—darker than normal ice in the Human Realm. The ice turned into a sharp blade, glowing with dark blue and red light, looking evil.

Her action was fast. She was about to insert the ice into Di Xiuyu’s heart, but her body was sent flying.

"Bang!!!" She spat out blood in disbelief as she saw the golden glow protecting Di Xiuyu. "What is this? Why does she carry the breath of heaven? Is she the chosen one, favored by heaven?"

Everyone’s expression turned serious.

"Sister, are you okay?" Run Jue picked her up in concern.

Shenlian Yingyue made an expression that said: See, I warned you.

"You can’t kill me." Di Xiuyu sneered. She laughed, enjoying her enemies’ pale expressions.

"It seems fun here," a voice suddenly said amidst the silence.

"Your Majesty!" Everyone kneeled on one knee except for Shenlian Yingyue, Di Xiuyu, who was already lying on the ground, and Run Chu, who was still in shock.

"Why are you here?" Di Xiuyu’s weak voice echoed.

"If I don’t show up, how would I know that some people here dare to disobey my order?" Shen Xian’s presence was powerful. His murderous aura enveloped everyone. Today, he wore a new mask, covering his face since the old one had broken.

Two figures stood behind him, wearing imposing Hanfu robes that resembled those of the royal clan’s nobility. They seemed to be the Demon Elders. From their presence, Shenlian Yingyue could tell that their powers were slightly weaker than his but far stronger than the Demon Kings and Queens.

Run Chu broke into a cold sweat when his eyes glared at her. Run Jue’s expression turned gloomy. Under Shen Xian’s pressure, he clenched his jaw unwillingly, his face turning pale. He hated that Shen Xian was so powerful.

"Who is this woman? Why doesn’t she kneel before His Majesty?" one of the Demon Elders asked coldly.

"No need," Shen Xian’s voice halted everyone’s movements.

Shenlian Yingyue frowned with a troubled expression. So many powerful demons here... will I be able to leave peacefully?
