Zhao Guang was taken aback, surprised that Xi Fei was aware of the breakthrough.
He waved his hand indifferently and said, "It's fine, it's fine, I've already taken care of two demigods."
"Two? What on earth happened?" Xi Fei was extremely shocked, never expecting two demigods would attack her master. If Zhao Guang hadn't dealt with them, Xi Fei would certainly have fought to the death.
"I don't know the specifics either, but perhaps tidying up first would be wise since others will arrive soon."
Zhao Guang sensed Sephidya and Jeana were flying toward them.
If Jeana could perform instant teleportation, Sephidya would have been here first.
At this moment, Xi Fei's appearance had changed somewhat again; the horns on her head had grown larger, spiraling like a bull's. Black flames burned atop, yet they exuded a serene feeling.
The wings on her back shone with a gemstone-like radiance, black but stunningly magnificent.
The key was Xi Fei herself; the allure she radiated was incomparable to before. After all, she's now a demigod-level enchantress, and this allure made even Zhao Guang feel restless.
This wasn't a physiological reaction, but a natural spiritual charming ability.
If Xi Fei were to take a walk outside, ordinary people would undoubtedly submit instantly to her charm.
It's what you might call a kingdom-wrecking beauty. Another reason was during Xi Fei's earlier breakthrough, her clothes were completely burned by the flames, leaving her bare.
Xi Fei glanced down, her face immediately reddening.
Though an enchantress, having been under Zhao Guang's influence, Xi Fei was rather reserved.
Seeing her current state, Xi Fei hastily put on a set of clothes.
Just after doing so, Sephidya and Jeana flew over from afar.
"Congratulations, now our kingdom has two demigods," Sephidya and Jeana showed expressions of envy but not jealousy, knowing they too would eventually break through.
The soul contract isn't all downsides; despite its strict requirements, the benefits are certainly substantial.
Xi Fei retracted her horns and wings at this time, also restraining her charm, making her appear much like usual. No, there was a difference; she seemed even more unassuming now.
Indeed, because her restrained abilities were stronger, Xi Fei was more easily overlooked by people usually.
In this restrained state, a passerby would just assume she was an ordinary person.
Xi Fei's allure was something she only wished to show before her master, preferably at night.
The two were unaware of the demigod attackers; Zhao Guang quickly explained his transformation and also mentioned this affair. Due to their special relationship, sharing didn't pose an issue.
"I can't believe so much happened in such a short time," Sephidya's expression hardened.
"According to the master, those two might be from the Evil God Temple and the Grim Reaper Temple, no telling what they're conspiring together,"
Jeana's face grew serious as well, "Certainly nothing good, but since they're on Delan Continent, it's definitely not a small matter. We just need to strictly monitor the surroundings."
Their undertakings probably weren't targeting Xuanwu Kingdom.
Though Xuanwu Kingdom had developed rapidly and changed greatly, its overall strength wasn't significant compared to other nations.
This comparison involved both visible metrics and hidden strengths. With their breakthroughs, they now stood apart; no one on the continent could compare.
But surely, the two demigods hadn't predicted this ahead of time.
Only detecting Zhao Guang's breakthrough aura triggered their spontaneous arrival for inspection.
"When dealing with such matters, just push the blame to the temple. After all, they're enemies by nature," Xi Fei wasn't concerned.
Relations between evil god temples and current temples are pretty hostile; it's normal for them to be enemies. If they can cause trouble for the temple, they'd be glad, as those would be legitimate issues.
The orthodox Divine and Evil God are naturally irreconcilable, better to let them battle it out.
Sephidya felt slightly frustrated, her own power was too weak; if she had broken through earlier, she could have helped.
They came over now mainly not to disrupt the two's breakthroughs. They sensed Zhao Guang's breakthrough considering its significant commotion, not to mention the contract connection.
At that time, Xi Fei hadn't broken through, so they could only reassure others and keep waiting.
Who would have expected that within such a brief span, a battle among demigods would erupt?
The critical aspect is that their master was no match and had to use a faith poison weapon for a stealthy kill.
This restrained everyone's swelling egos; though invincible at the legendary level, they realized many outclassed them at the demigod level.
"Alright, alright, people will find out sooner or later. We just have to keep it secret here,"
"Yes, can't let others know; if it gets out, it would be troublesome. Master, have you cleaned up the traces over there?"
Zhao Guang nodded, "Everything's cleaned up well, no one will be able to find anything out."
In this area, Zhao Guang was confident, even stronger demigods lacked his art; stealth requires expertly hiding one's abilities.
As for whether Divine beings might uncover it, that didn't concern him for it ventured far beyond his scope.
"Enough talk, let's focus on you. How are your abilities now?"
Xi Fei heard this and displayed a joyous expression, "Master, I've nurtured a new law powered by level ten rule strength—Dark Fire. This flame is entirely mine."
This was no longer super magic skills but Xi Fei's law essence. When she employed this flame, it perfectly carried the power of laws; consumption was minimal, with tremendous force.
Xi Fei's attack power surpassed Zhao Guang's for the first time, as Zhao Guang lacked attack-based Divine Arts.
Zhao Guang felt somewhat dispirited; enhancing quickly was crucial, failing to do so would be embarrassing. Nonetheless, Zhao Guang maintained a calm facade; couldn't let his woman discern his worry.
