"Ahem... ahem... that's enough, you two."
Seeing that the two of them would not stop hugging, Old Teng had no choice but to remind them.
Only then did they remember that they had a third wheel nearby. They hastily separated, then both glared at Old Teng, making him feel a sudden chill down his neck...
"Uh... well... fierce... Boss Zi You, from now on, you're my boss. If you tell me to go east, I'll never go west. If you tell me to catch chickens, I'll never catch ducks!" Old Teng sidled up to Zi You and tried to ingratiate himself.
"No need. Just follow him properly!" Zi You said.
"Will do!"
Old Teng hurriedly nodded. He no longer dared to act as arrogantly around Zi You as he once had. After witnessing her power, he had instantly become much better behaved...
"Ugh, one still got away..." Zi You said in frustration.
"It's fine. You were already amazing. Just kill him the next time we run into him!" Wu Shaozhen comforted her.
Zi You shook her head. "The Dark King alone is nothing. I'm worried he'll contact the Demon Lord. If that happens, we'll be in trouble..."
"How strong is the Demon Lord?" Wu Shaozhen asked curiously.
"Transcendent god tier!" Zi You said gravely.
"!!!"
Wu Shaozhen's eyes widened. Transcendent god tier! An existence powerful enough to inspire despair!
"The Demon Race really deserves its place among the three strongest races. They even have a transcendent god-tier existence!" Old Teng exclaimed.
"The Demon Race has a special inheritance. Every Demon Lord reaches transcendent god tier after receiving it!" Zi You said flatly, hatred gleaming in her eyes.
Wu Shaozhen squeezed Zi You's hand and comforted her. "It's all right. Someday, I'll help you take back everything that belongs to you!"
