C1989 Her Hand Slipped
The hand slipped.
Jian Xilai looked at Jess indifferently. A trace of ridicule flashed across his eyes. His killing intent did not decrease because of Jess's begging.
"Not good, she really intends to kill me!"
A trace of fear flashed across Jess's eyes. At this stage of cultivation... He had spent countless years of hard work, and only he himself knew how difficult it was. He could still live for countless years, and he absolutely couldn't die here. Otherwise, wouldn't all the hard work he had suffered all these years be in vain?
Jian Xilai moved. The cold light of the Long Sword in his hand swept across. He could only hear Lilian screaming like a donkey. Her four limbs had been cut off.
"Saintess, this old servant was wrong, Saintess!"
Lilian begged loudly.
The guards of Saint Lady Temple who stood behind Jian Xilai all showed a trace of pity in their eyes. If they knew this would happen, why did they have to do it in the first place?
Lilian had been targeting Jian Xilai since the beginning. All of these people had witnessed it with their own eyes. It was only because of her special identity that nothing happened to her. Unexpectedly, it turned out that their Saintess only didn't want to bicker with this old servant. Now that they were bickering, they even directly broke all four of Lilian's limbs.
These four limbs weren't simply broken. The life force at the fracture had long been destroyed by the violent demonic Qi. Unless there was a Heavenly Devil Level helping her, or swallowing some kind of heavenly treasure... Otherwise, there was basically no way for these four limbs to regrow.
"Hahaha, now I know how to beg for mercy!"
The Spiderweb looked at Lilian with an expression of relief.
The corner of Jian Xilai's mouth raised slightly. Just as he was about to end Lilian's life, a burst of laughter came from the door.
"Saintess, although Lilian is taking advantage of her old age, she has also done so many things for our Lucifer Tribe. For the sake of this old man, let her go this time."
An old man slowly walked in. The Qi on his body was thicker than Jian Xilai and Jess's. Clearly, he was an intermediate Earth Devil.
"Elder Martinez, save me!"
Lilian seemed to have seen her savior. She wanted to hug his thigh, but found that she had lost both her hands. She could only use all her strength to jump behind Martinez.
When Jess saw the arrival of the elder, he heaved a long sigh of relief in his heart. Martinez was a member of the Elder Pavilion, and he was in charge of many matters in Lucifer Giant City. He would surely give Jian Xilai some face if he was the one to step in. At least, his life would be saved today.
"Martinez, why are you free to come to Saint Lady Temple today?"
Jian Xilai said indifferently.
Martinez smiled and looked at the four wings on Jian Xilai's back. A trace of shock flashed across the depths of his eyes. However, this trace of shock did not show on his face. He smiled and said, "Saintess, I happened to pass by this place today and saw Saintess throwing such a big temper. I was afraid that something unexpected would happen, so I came over to take a look."
"Oh, is that so?"
Jian Xilai smiled faintly and nodded at Lilian. He looked at Martinez and said, "Do you really want to plead on behalf of this evil slave?"
"This..."
Martinez hesitated. Lilian saw this and quickly shouted for help. Martinez lowered his head and looked at Lilian. His gaze swept across the wrinkles on her face. There was a trace of disgust in the depths of his eyes, but when he thought of a long time ago... He had some romantic affairs with this girl. If he did not help her today... He felt bad about it.
Thinking about this, Martinez smiled at Jian Xilai and said, "Saintess, although Lilian's temper is a little bad, it is not a crime to die. How about this, you have already broken all four of her limbs. Even if you recover in the future, I am afraid that you are not even comparable to a Late Period of Human Devil Stage. Give this old man some face and let her go. How about it? "
" Alright then, I'll give you some face. "
A cold look flashed across Jian Xilai's eyes. After that, he walked straight out of the main hall. Martinez wanted to say something, but when he saw that Jian Xilai didn't seem to have any intention of talking to him, he immediately shut his mouth.
Lilian hid behind Martinez, staring at Jian Xilai with hatred in her eyes.
"Ai, what a pity. This Elder Martinez came at the right time. If he didn't come, Lilian, this old shrew, would definitely die today."
The Spiderweb had a look of pity on its face.2
Ning Qi originally followed Jian Xilai and left. When he passed by Lilian's side, because his aura was very weak, Martinez wasn't on guard against Ning Qi at all. When he finally realized what was going on... Lilian's head had already been split in half, and her brain was scattered all over the ground.
Lilian, a Human Devil Great Perfection, died on the spot!
In fact, Lilian would not have died so easily. After all, she was a Human Devil Great Perfection. However, her limbs were cut off by Jian Xilai first, and she was seriously injured. The HP had dropped to an extremely low level, and she was just like Martinez. She had never thought of guarding against Ning Qi. That was why she was killed by Ning Qi's indestructible Dragon Slaying Blade. Lilian's grayish-white eyes were still filled with a trace of shock and unwillingness.
There was no notification from the system. Ning Qi also did not know if there would be any rewards for killing Lilian. After all, the system was in the midst of upgrading.
The Spiderweb stared at Ning Qi with its mouth agape. It did not react, but Jian Xilai was slightly stunned. In the next moment, his body flashed and appeared in front of Ning Qi, blocking between him and Martinez.
"What's going on?"
Jess and the Saint Lady Temple guards were dumbfounded.
"You... killed Lilian?"
A layer of fury emerged in Martinez's eyes as he stared at Ning Qi.
Ning Qi smiled, "My hand slipped just now. Sorry."
"Martinez, you heard him. His hand just slipped."
Jian Xilai looked at Martinez coldly.
Martinez wanted to act up, but Jian Xilai's position had already clearly told him. Did he have to stand on Ning Qi's side and become enemies with Jian Xilai for the sake of a dead man? Perhaps Martinez would have done this before, but after seeing the four wings on Jian Xilai's back, Martinez felt that offending her was not a wise choice.
"Hehe, so your hand slipped."
Martinez nodded with a fake smile. With a light tap of his finger, Lilian's corpse was burned to ashes.
"Lilian's luck is not good. No one can blame her. Saintess, I have a lot to talk about today. I will take my leave first."
Martinez smiled and turned around to leave. Jess saw this. He quickly followed Martinez and passed by Ning Qi's side. His face was full of vigilance, as if he was afraid that Ning Qi's hand would slip again, but he didn't think about it. Lilian was only a Human Devil Great Perfection, and she was seriously injured. As for him, he was an Early Earth Devil. Unless Ning Qi was stupid, how could he attack him?
Very quickly, Jess followed Martinez and left Saint Lady Temple. He heaved a sigh of relief in his heart.
"Jess, I want the information about that kid. Send it to the Sect Elder Pavilion tomorrow!"
Martinez cast a cold glance at Jess, then turned around and left.
