Back then, they were stronger.
More prepared.
Yet nothing like this had manifested.
"…Is it because we're weaker now?" she mused softly.
"Or because someone is stepping where they shouldn't?"
Before she could think further.
"Kyayaa~! Finally, you stopped!"
A melodious yet grating voice rang out behind her.
Ming Tianmei halted.
Three demons stepped into view.
The first was undeniably beautiful at a glance.
Slender frame, elegant posture but the illusion shattered the longer one looked. His facial proportions were subtly off, it was definitely asymmetric.
"I was really having a hard time catching up," he said with a smile that didn't reach his eyes.
Another demon scoffed, crossing his arms.
"Idiot. Didn't sir say she's to be taken alive? She's already been marked as a concubine candidate."
A third arrived, eyes glowing faintly as he assessed Ming Tianmei like prey.
