Chapter 265: 264 can come upon
As Shane, Ai Yi, and Jiasinta decided on their plan and went their separate ways, they had no idea that deep in the canyon, by the edge of the vast lake, something was happening.
“Roar—!!”
The terrifying demon could no longer bear it and stopped entangling with the continuous swarm of Refined Demons that were sacrificing themselves. After a painful roar, its wings on its back suddenly flapped, causing a powerful gust of wind that blew away countless Refined Demons. It broke free from the relentless Refined Demons and took flight.
Seeing this, Lord Vasco, who had been watching from a distance, suddenly changed his expression.
The nobles around him were the same.
“Not good!”
“It’s trying to escape!”
“No… really?”
“It still has the will to resist, and it can even escape…!?”
The group of nobles exclaimed in shock.
This situation was indeed beyond their expectations.
By reason, under the Demon Refining Ceremony, even if the demon was powerful, it should have been affected and lost its sanity—let alone having slaughtered so many Refined Demons and absorbed so much of their Magic Power and flesh.
Under such circumstances, it should have already completely fallen into madness and become the most powerful Refined Demon in the Artlu Canyon.
And then, once it had devoured all the Refined Demons in the canyon, the ultimate sacrificial offering would be born.
At that time, the Demon Infant that consumed this offering would undoubtedly become unprecedentedly powerful. This was what Vasco and the others wanted to see.
But now, this terrifying demon was desperately resisting the ceremony’s influence, resisting the integration of the Refined Demons, and even running away—truly beyond everyone’s expectation.
“Quick! Stop it!”
Lord Vasco ordered loudly as his face dramatically changed.
The surrounding nobles and knights immediately reacted. After hesitating for a moment, they started launching magic attacks at the colossal creature that was preparing to soar into the sky.
Various magic spells bombarded the demon’s body but hardly affected it.
After all, the magic levels of these people were not high; not one of them had learned Upper-Level Magic, so naturally, they could not do much to a terrifying demon of at least Level 90.
If it wasn’t for the surrounding Refined Demons, the demon would certainly have regarded this as a Taunt and slaughtered Vasco and the others.
Unfortunately, the demon was now struggling with all its might to maintain its sanity and had no spare energy to do anything else.
At that moment, the demon flew up, enduring the fierce attacks from the Refined Demons and the magic bombardment from Vasco and his allies. Its wings vibrated, and not caring about anything else, it fled the place.
“Screech!”
“Howl!”
“Roar!”
With the largest target gone, those Refined Demons immediately turned on each other and began to fight, utterly disregarding the choosing to flee.
“Damn it!”

Fury consumed Vasco.
“Lord Vasco!”
“The demon has flown away!”
“What do we do now?”
The group of nobles immediately asked in a panic.
Upon seeing this, Vasco spoke without hesitation.
“Chase it,” Vasco said coldly. “With the Demon Refining Ceremony here, that demon can’t leave the canyon. As long as we find it and continue to lead Refined Demons to attack it, it won’t last long.”
Hearing this, the group of nobles hesitated again.
It couldn’t be helped.
In terms of strength, their highest was not even Level 60. Facing a super strong demon of Level 90 or above, they inevitably hesitated.
The reason they dared to trouble this demon was that they did not need to face it directly—just launch the ceremony and lead Refined Demons to slaughter it.
But now they had to actively chase such a frightful entity—their hesitation was understandable.
“What’s the matter? Are you afraid?” Vasco saw this scene and immediately taunted, “If you are afraid, go back now, beg for mercy from the Kingdom, and maybe you can spend the rest of your life in jail as the price for being stripped of your title.”
This statement made the group of nobles abruptly realize.
Yes, they no longer had a way back.
Choosing to participate in this plan and helping the Old Demon Clan Faction conduct the Demon Refining Ceremony within the Kingdom’s territory was an unforgivable crime.
Now, they had no choice but to see it through, raise the Demon Infant to maturity, and after achieving their revenge, rely on the power of the mature Demon Infant to restrain and even control the Kingdom.
Beyond that, there was no other path for them to take.
Realizing this, the nobles clenched their teeth in agreement with Vasco’s method.
With a cold laugh, Vasco lead everyone in pursuit of the direction the demon had fled.
…
Meanwhile, Vivian and the others had taken some time to rest, somewhat recuperating their physical strength and magic power.
Lu Muya and Merica had also woken up and gathered around Vivian and Tielle.
Though anxiety was evident on their faces, there was no fear.
Clearly, like Vivian, they did not feel Tielle had dragged them into this.
On the contrary, since Tielle had encountered such trouble, they felt compelled to stand and face the danger, no matter how perilous it was.
“Tielle always took care of us…”
“This time, it’s our turn to help Tielle.”
The two girls spoke with firm determination.
This touched Tielle’s heart, further solidifying her resolve to protect her fellow squad members at all costs.
Vivian had already adjusted her state of mind and, clapping her hands, called out to the women.
“Ladies, our most urgent task right now is to find a way out of Artlu Canyon,” Vivian said solemnly. “Only by leaving the canyon can we be temporarily safe, until we return to the Royal Capital.”
Lu Muya and Merica immediately nodded in serious agreement.
Only Tielle’s expression was not so good.
“This won’t be easy,” Tielle said softly, “I can feel that the air in the canyon seems different.”
This statement left both Vivian and Lu Muya somewhat stunned.
Obviously, neither of them had noticed anything amiss.
Only Merica quickly raised her hand.
“That’s right, I’ve felt it too since I woke up.” Merica said, her complexion as uneasy as Tielle’s, as if she were afraid, “There’s a strange flow of magic power in the canyon that makes me very uncomfortable.”
As an elf born from nature, Merica found the air and magic power in the canyon uncomfortable.
“It’s… it’s like something terrible is happening.” Merica shivered, hugging her arms, “Let’s hurry out of this canyon, the sooner, the better.”
This proposition made everyone’s expression grow solemn.
Unfortunately, the next second, Tielle’s face changed, she suddenly stood up, and shielded everyone in front of her.
Vivian also didn’t hesitate and raised her shield to protect the group.
Then…
“You think you can leave? Don’t even dream about it!”
Accompanying such a triumphantly sneering laugh, a noble appeared with many troops.
It was Jiorrido.
“This time, I’ll see how you can run.”
Jiorrido’s sneer was relentless.
Around him, all the nobles and knights also released a chilling murderous aura.
This scene cast a heavy shadow over the faces of Vivian’s Team members.
Tielle felt even more acutely.
Perhaps, this was where they would meet their end.
…
At the same moment, two figures entered the depths of the canyon at an astonishing speed.
“Quicker,” urged Ai Yi, flying in front with her Dragon Wings, her expression suddenly changed, “Those girls seem to be in a bit of trouble.”
Shane’s head shot up immediately.
In his eyes, a cold light flashed.
