Ethereal World: Vicious Cannon Fodder's Immortality Road - Chapter 769

Chapter 769: She Is A Human Being???

Chapter 769: She Is A Human Being???

The temptation to draw her black sword and eliminate them was strong; it would ensure they could no longer challenge her.

However, the repercussions of such an action loomed large in her mind.

Once they witnessed the power of the black sword, there would be no doubt they would report her to their superiors without hesitation.  Don’t speak of the demons that will pursue her for the possession of this formidable sword capable of severing their immortal ties.

Not just demons, but humans and other races would stop at nothing to claim it from her.

That sword…

she inhaled deeply, a pang of recklessness washing over her.

She hoped Yao, the Destroyer Dahlia, would keep this secret buried.

Doubts began to creep in about the wisdom of her decision to let him go.

She grimaced as she battled the demons around her.

Before long, something felt off to demons as they observed her.

She had never felt fatigued.

Her spiritual energy seemed boundless; it had been two hours since they engaged her in battles, yet with every confrontation, she appeared more invigorated.

As if an infinite reservoir of spiritual power lay within her Dantian.

“How is this even possible?

Are you truly human?” they gasped in disbelief.

“Human!!” They exclaimed in horror.

Instead of despising her identity, they felt horror creeping inside them.  As they attempted to grasp the situation, they realized a deeper truth.

Her strength did not originate from the Underworld Realm.

Those vile creatures had not summoned a shred of this scarlet flame at all.

They found it within themselves to accept their disorientation and utter defeat at the hands of this mysterious underworld creature, recognizing that there was no shame in losing to such a mightily powerful opponent.

After all, the strength of the demon clan and the monsters was alike.

But the fact that she wasn’t a monster but a human sent shiver down their spines.

They had always regarded humanity as weak, inept, and inferior, but here they were-facing a formidable opponent and lost to a mere human!

Should they feel rage at her audacity for challenging them, shame for succumbing to someone they deemed lesser, admiration for her remarkable prowess, or doubt about their own capabilities?  A whirlwind of conflicting emotions enveloped them like a storm, but none could alter the stark reality that over a hundred of their kind were being overwhelmed by her, unable to rise or move!

Shenlian Yingyue stood dumbfounded.

How could they know she was a human?

So, Xiao Yun explained to her.

In this extensive world, from the lowly continents to the towering Upper Worlds, each race wielded distinct powers.

Consider the elves, for instance; their fire powers were not akin to the fiery essence held by humans who possessed the Spiritual Fire Root.

The elves’ flames served as conduits for healing, soft and nurturing in nature.

The color of the fire power was mint green.

Then there were the Dragons, whose fire flickered in dark green, reminiscent of emeralds.

Their flames were fierce and commanding, embodying raw power.

But her flames blazed scarlet red.

It was a manifestation of human fire, birthed from their Fire Root.

In contrast, the flames wielded by creatures from the Underworld were a gruesome deep red, echoing the searing and gloom, hellish infernos of their realm.

Despite her extensive reading on the history and practices of this cultivation world, she remained naive about the depth of knowledge held by the demons.

As she absorbed their insights once more, a wave of realization washed over her: she had been heedless!

How could she have missed such a vital piece of information?

If she were to hit her head with the brick now, would it be too late?

She felt ashamed that those professors and teachers praised her for being a talented genius in school and university.  {This understanding of the varying abilities possessed by different races was not hidden, yet it wasn’t common knowledge either.

While not all humans grasped the capabilities of other races, the demons who had lived for millennia were well aware of these intricacies.

They had encountered numerous races over the ages-how could they not be informed?} Shenlian Yinzhu and everyone were amused by her cute reaction.

In her stunned silence, the demons became even more convinced of her true identity, making their earlier misjudgments seem all the more foolish.

“But how can a mere human have white hair?” The demons exchanged glances, their eyes narrowing as they caught sight of the few strands of white hair peeking out from beneath her cloak and mask.

Confusion danced in their minds as they tried to process the anomaly before them.

“Is she a half-breed?

Some kind of human-beast hybrid?” “Could she be a demigod?” An unsettling silence enveloped the area, thickening the tension.

Shenlian Yingyue, acutely aware of the ever-growing number of demons converging on the city center, rapidly steeled her resolve.

Despite the blunders she had made, she set her plan into motion, signaling her companions to act as they had agreed.

“I suspect her father is a beast and her mother is a human.

Or it might be the opposite,” a demon theorized, eyes filled with speculation.

“Maybe her father had an affair with a monster, and betrayed her mother or it might be the opposite?” another chimed in, questions spiraling out of control.

As if activated by the absurdity of the last remark, a sudden, brutal silence followed.

Nobody knew who had posed the dumb question, but the moment the words hung in the air, Shenlian Yingyue sprang into action.  “Bang!!

Bang!!” The sound of fists connecting with flesh echoed through the space as she unleashed her fury upon the demon who had spoken.

This was no ordinary beating; it was an unrelenting assault meant to humiliate and punish.

The cries of the demon echoed against the walls around them, filled with agony, yet the others only stepped back in dread rather than rushing to his aid.

Indeed, it wasn’t that they lacked the desire to aid their ally; rather, they were eager to annihilate her.

However, the moment they drew near to strike, their bodies were shredded by the Slashing Fire she unleashed.
