How come you are here

The silver whip transformed into a coiling dragon, striking Xue Ming's hand.

The medicine bottle he was holding was knocked to the ground.

"Your poison is useless against me," Yan Zhi said coldly.

Xue Ming's eyes turned icy as the toxic gas from the bottle dispersed, filling the sealed space with a faint green mist.

Yet Yan Zhi remained unfazed, firing another bullet from her silver pistol.

Clang!

The bullet pierced into Xue Ming's body—

Only to be forced back out moments later, landing on the ground with a crisp metallic sound.

"Tch, your bullets are useless too. That kind of gun is already outdated," Xue Ming sneered, gripping his dagger as he charged forward.

The whip and dagger clashed!

With each exchange, Xue Ming's expression grew darker.

He was no match for her.

Swiish!

The whip howled through the air, lashing across Xue Ming's back and leaving a deep, bone-exposing gash.

Xue Ming's pupils constricted. His body, tempered since childhood with countless poisons, could even withstand bullets—yet a single whip strike had shattered his shoulder blade.

Yan Zhi remained cautious.

To endure a direct hit from my silver whip… Just how monstrous is his physique?

"Impressive. You’ve gotten even stronger since we last met in the secret realm," Xue Ming chuckled through gritted teeth, clutching his wound. "A friendly warning—Chi Xiao has already begun slaughtering everyone on this cruise ship. Staying here means death."

"Then I’ll drag you down with me before I die!" Yan Zhi’s cold eyes flashed with determination.

"You can’t catch me."

Xue Ming crushed a black sphere in his hand.

Instantly, thick black smoke erupted, forcing Yan Zhi to cover her mouth and nose.

Splash!

By the time the smoke cleared, Xue Ming had vanished.

A massive hole had been torn through the hull, seawater rapidly flooding in.

Yan Zhi’s phoenix-like eyes narrowed.

He got away!

Cough!

A trickle of blood escaped her lips as she leaned against the wall for support.

Xue Ming’s poison was too potent—if the fight had dragged on, she would’ve lost.

Fortunately, his cautious nature had made him retreat.

Boom!

A colossal foot smashed through the deck above.

Yan Zhi’s gaze sharpened. What the hell is happening up there?!

Crash!

An Yi descended from above, his heavy sword slashing downward—

Straight at Chi Xiao.

At the last moment, Chi Xiao’s wings folded, blocking the strike.

Those black feathers were harder than steel.

"Not bad, kid."

Chi Xiao effortlessly deflected An Yi’s attack, leisurely hovering in the air.

An Yi’s expression darkened.

This guy… is ridiculously strong.

Even among fourth-tier beings, that hippo from before was nothing compared to him.

Chi Xiao’s eyes gleamed with murderous intent. "I wasn’t planning to bother with an ant like you, but you dared to hurt my woman."

An Yi smirked mockingly. "Then your head must feel pretty light, huh?"

He distinctly remembered Zi Xin mentioning how she’d "played around" with Xiao Xiao’s master.

Seemed like this bird-brain was still clueless.

"I’ll handle this brat!"

The fat man swung his spiked club at Fang Jueming.

Clang!

Fang Jueming met the attack head-on, blocking it with his bare fist.

"Peak Dark Force stage?" The fat man scoffed. "Pathetic. You’re not even at the Transforming Force level!"

Yet inwardly, his wariness grew.

As a fourth-tier demonic beast—equivalent to a human Void Realm martial artist—he hadn’t expected this kid to withstand his blow.

Fang Jueming’s fist trembled, sweat beading on his forehead.

Still… too much of a gap.

At the peak of Dark Force, he could easily kill Transforming Force experts—

But this was on another level.

But when faced with the Void Force realm, this was no longer something he could withstand.

At that moment, a black tiger-shaped demon beast seized the opportunity and pounced toward him.

"Xiao Ming, move!"

Hongtian transformed into his giant wolf form and charged forward.

But it was too late!

"Not good!"

Fang Jueming's eyes turned icy.

Right then, the hippo-like fat man swung his spiked club with immense force!

Fang Jueming couldn't hold on—blood sprayed from the corner of his mouth.

The tiger-shaped demon beast was already upon him!

A flash of white light!

A rapier pierced straight through the beast's skull.

"You—fall back!"

Katies brandished her sword, deflected the spiked club, and locked eyes with the hippo fat man.

"Well, well, a little foreign mare—haven't had my fun with one yet!"

The fat man grinned, his expression brimming with excitement.

Katies gripped her rapier, an aura of terror radiating from her body.

"Impressive."

The hippo fat man's gaze turned solemn.

The energy emanating from this foreign woman was no weaker than his own.

While Hongtian was momentarily dazed, the cat-eared girl found herself surrounded by a horde of demon beasts.

"Damn it!"

Hongtian saw this and immediately rushed over. With a single charge, he sent two second-tier wolf beasts flying off the cruise ship, their howls fading as they plunged into the sea.

"Bastards! I haven't even taken a bite yet!"

Hongtian bared his fangs, glaring at the demon beasts with the murderous intent unique to a savage beast.

The creatures hesitated, their courage wavering.

Chi Xiao, soaring in the sky, caught sight of this and his expression darkened.

That cat-eared girl—she was his true objective for coming here!

The Third Princess of the Ten Thousand Demon Kingdom!

Only after capturing her had he learned her true identity.

If he didn’t bring her back safely, disaster would surely follow.

Chi Xiao’s eyes turned frigid.

Entering this world was easy—but finding a way back was another matter entirely.

Killing intent flickered in Chi Xiao’s gaze.

That brat below—he needed to finish this quickly!

An Yi leaped into the air, using his Aerokinesis to hover. Flames coiled around his black sword as he slashed toward Chi Xiao.

"The sky is my domain!"

Chi Xiao smirked coldly and finally drew his weapon—

A crescent-moon-shaped scimitar!

Swoosh!

Where Chi Xiao had been standing, only an afterimage remained!

An Yi’s strike met empty air—his pupils constricted in shock.

The scimitar had already sliced across his waist!

Blood blossomed in the air.

An Yi plummeted to the ground!

"Master!"

"Kid!"

"An—what’s-his-name!"

Three panicked voices rang out from below.

Chi Xiao grinned savagely.

Fighting on land might’ve been troublesome, but in the sky?

That brat stood no chance!

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

Chi Xiao pressed his advantage—his black wings transformed into blade-like feathers, raining down on An Yi!

"Master!"

Fang Jueming punched away a demon beast and sprinted toward him.

Katies’ eyes held a trace of pity.

Clearly, that kid wasn’t surviving this.

But Hongtian remained unfazed.

"Are you kidding? The Indestructible Body doesn’t die that easily."

"Stay back!"

An Yi’s voice stopped Fang Jueming in his tracks. Gritting his teeth against the pain, he yanked the feather embedded in his chest and abdomen and tossed it aside. "Goddamn, that hurts!"

Chi Xiao’s expression shifted.

That attack should’ve killed him!

Flick!

An Yi hurled the feather back at Chi Xiao.

Chi Xiao caught it, crushed it in his fist, and said coldly, "Fine. Let’s play properly then!"

Boom!

Right then—

The deck shattered!

Gabriel’s body burst through!

Lin Chen followed close behind.

Spotting Lin Chen, An Yi gasped, "Stone-face! What the hell are you doing here?!"
