Chapter 490: These Days, the Job of a Han Envoy Is Not Easy to Do

~8 min read 1,458 words

Tang An's eyes shone; she was just waiting for the other party to make a move and injure her.

There was no helping it; the upbringing carved into her very bones made her like to find a justifiable excuse for whatever she did.

Now that she was the Han Envoy herself, you needn't worry about how she humiliated others. But once the other party made a move, that justification would be set in stone.

Yes, in other words, she could have just robbed them directly, but she insisted on bullying them for a bit first before robbing them.

Isn't this blatant bullying?

No, it is blatant bullying of a demon.

"Go to hell..."

"Princess, be careful!" the Star of Misfortune couldn't help but offer a reminder.

Mofun had already finished charging his technique and was just about to unleash it when a spatial rift suddenly appeared in front of him, and then, without any warning, he was struck by a giant boulder flying out from the spatial rift...

"Hiss—"

Tang An covered her face and crossed her legs; just watching the scene seemed to make her feel Mofun's pain.

Afterwards, Tang An turned her head to look at the Star of Misfortune and gave him a thumbs-up.

The title of "mascot" was truly not given in vain.

"Nezha, send him back."

Although she really needed this mascot, she was currently acting as the Han Envoy, and having the mascot nearby would affect her performance.

"Mm." Nezha didn't say a word and took the Star of Misfortune away.

Watching Mofun fly off, Tang An had no choice but to set her sights on the other Ancestral Demon, Moyou.

"Wukong, go and bring that Mofun back."

"Alright, Master, old Sun will be back in a flash." Sun Wukong flicked his Golden Cudgel and vanished from the spot.

For now, only Tang An, Yang Jian, and the Ancestral Demon Moyou remained here.

Tang An raised her middle finger and beckoned, "It's your turn, make your move."

Moyou, however, was more cautious than Mofun and had no intention of attacking Tang An.

"What does the Guardian mean by this?"

"Was I not clear enough?" Tang An saw that the other party didn't believe her, so she reached out to borrow Yang Jian's Demon-Binding Rope and tied her own hands behind her back.

Moyou became even more cautious. What exactly was she trying to do? Surely she hadn't truly lived enough? Or was she trying to actively incite a war between the two domains?

Yang Jian rubbed the tip of his nose with his index finger, feeling the terror of the information gap.

If the Outer Realm Demon Race had ever heard of Tang An's reputation within the Three Realms, they wouldn't waste time agonizing over her motives. Instead, they would ignore everything and flee for their lives as fast as they could.

"Hurry up, let's get it over with quickly; my dad is waiting for me to go home for dinner." Tang An was losing her patience. Why did they have to be so cautious? They should just attack already; why waste both sides' time?

Moyou's brain was practically burning out. She had tied her own hands to show she wouldn't resist, yet she was also saying to finish the fight quickly so she could go home.

Which of her words could actually be trusted?

Tang An looked at Yang Jian and sent a voice transmission: "Why don't you go with Wukong to catch the other Ancestral Demon? You're standing too close, and he doesn't dare to make a move."

Seeing this, Yang Jian retreated about a thousand meters, but he had no intention of leaving.

"Look, I've shown plenty of sincerity here; my disciple is already standing so far away, hurry up and attack."

Moyou didn't know what Tang An was planning, but such a good opportunity right in front of him was indeed worth a gamble.

Moyou manifested a Magic Tool similar to a Flying Claw; with this kind of long-range attack, even if Tang An had other tricks up her sleeve, she couldn't easily kill him before he could react.

"Take this claw!"

As the Magic Tool was unleashed, hundreds of Flying Claw chains appeared in the space around Tang An, restricting her range of movement and binding her hands and feet, leaving her trapped and unable to move.

Seeing that Tang An truly did not resist and allowed him to strike, a ferocious smile curled the corners of Moyou's mouth.

"Strangulate!"

Those Flying Claws immediately expanded into sharp blades, intending to pierce through her defenses and flesh, latch onto her bones, and dismember her body to death.

A faint smile played on the corners of Tang An's mouth; she only needed to suffer a little injury, just a little, and her job as the Han Envoy would be perfectly completed.

However, after a while...

The smile on her lips gradually stiffened and twitched slightly.

"Is that it?"

It couldn't even break her Golden Body of Merit; what were these demons even good for?

Moyou was clearly also shocked, his mouth agape; he had never imagined that a person's defense could be strong to such a terrifying degree.

"Take this!"

Taking advantage of Moyou's distraction, the Gold Treasure Sword appeared silently behind him.

It struck his head with the force of a wooden fish mallet, sending Moyou scurrying about in the space, yet he was unable to escape.

There was no way out; Tang An had already sealed off this space to prevent him from fleeing.

"Today, if you don't injure me, you aren't going anywhere."

??????

Is this something a human could say?

Although they, the Demon Race, were not human, she shouldn't treat them as so inhuman either!

In the shadows of the Outer Domain, the Primordial Demon was silently watching everything that was happening here.

"It really is a trap."

It was fortunate he hadn't been fooled from the start; otherwise, what was lying in ambush wouldn't just be a Qingping Sword, but ten Great Killing Weapons like last time, right?

The Primordial Demon retreated from the shadows, a new storm seemingly brewing in his eyes.

After all, being constantly manipulated by a Guardian was not a good thing.

Wasn't she actively seeking death? Then he would seize her weakness, fulfill her wish, and force her to commit suicide.

Tang An seemed to sense that the Primordial Demon had vanished, and she clapped her hands helplessly.

"Sigh, it's really not easy to find an excuse these days. Forget it, I won't look for one anymore; I'll just rob them directly."

Tang An pulled her hands apart and returned the Demon-Binding Rope to Yang Jian.

"Master, old Sun has returned." Sun Wukong had returned; his voice arrived before he did.

Oh, there was also a large, rapidly spinning ball of flesh that had been kicked over.

Tang An raised her foot and kicked the ball of flesh into the air, then Yang Jian took over, shifting to the sky, holding the Three-Pointed Double-Edged Spear, and struck it fiercely.

"Pfft!"

Mofun was struck between two giant rocks that were about to collide, slammed onto the surface of the left rock, left a long streak, and spat out several mouthfuls of blood.

Before he could react and try to escape, Sun Wukong and Yang Jian had already tacitly stood on either side of the giant rocks and exerted force simultaneously, wanting to crash the two giant rocks together.

Like pushing a millstone, they used Innate Violent Qi to crush Mofun between them.

Moyou wanted to go save him, but Tang An blocked his path.

"You can barely look after yourself, yet you still have the heart to worry about others?"

Tang An smirked like a villain, "Senior Wutian, lend me the World-Extinguishing Black Lotus!"

She shouted to the surroundings, but the World-Extinguishing Black Lotus appeared inside her body as promised.

"This Venerable does not mind keeping a little demon pet."

Sensing a dangerous aura, Moyou disregarded everything else, turned around, and prepared to cleave through the spatial seal to flee into the depths of the Outer Realm Demon Race.

"Want to escape? It's too late."

Tang An did not launch an attack, but instead raised her hand and shot out a chain filled with black aura.

If they were in the Inner Realm, an Ancestral Demon would truly not be easily locked up.

But this was the Outer Domain, the place most suitable for nourishing the World-Extinguishing Black Lotus. Plus, Wutian had been absorbing dark Qi in the Outer Domain for a long time, increasing the power of the World-Extinguishing Black Lotus.

Therefore, the Law Power on this chain was naturally more than a hundred times stronger than before.
