Chapter 822 -822: Jiang Liu: I’m in a Difficult Position Caught in the Middle

Flames!

As the Peacock Princess waved the feather fan in her hand, overwhelming flames were released with her movements, transforming into a sea of fire that fiercely pressed towards the Scorpion Demon.

The Scorpion Demon’s cultivation level was at the Great Luo Golden Immortal stage, and the Inverted Horse Stake had reached a divine level of quality as a Dharma Treasure.

However, regardless of her strength, she was ultimately born from a demon creature, a poisonous one at that. Faced with the scorching flames waved out by the Peacock Princess’ feather fan, she was suppressed at the moment.

The blazing flames were evidently a restraining force against all evil demons and poisonous creatures.

Seeing the incoming overwhelming flames, the Scorpion Demon’s expression changed. She didn’t dare touch them easily and quickly retreated to avoid the flames.

The feather fan in the Peacock Princess’ hand waved continuously, and as she moved, these overwhelming flames seemed to come to life, splitting into several directions, pressing towards the Scorpion Demon.

There was absolutely no room for her to dodge.

The Peacock Princess still appeared elegant at this time, just gently waving the feather fan in her hand.

However, with each movement, the Scorpion Demon was forced to flee in all directions, not daring to touch these terrible flames even the slightest.

At this moment, the situation in the arena was completely one where ranged attacks suppressed melee attacks.

Although the Inverted Horse Stake was powerful, it was ultimately a melee weapon. Being pressed by the Peacock Princess with overwhelming flames, it couldn’t even get close, making the Inverted Horse Stake redundant.

The cultivation level of the Peacock Princess was at the Late Stage of the Great Luo Golden Immortal, while the Scorpion Demon was only at the Early Stage of the Great Luo Golden Immortal.

If such a treasure as the Inverted Horse Stake couldn’t be utilized, the Scorpion Demon was like a toothless tiger, with her overall strength decreased by at least four to five tenths.

It was natural that in front of the Peacock Princess, she could only be heavily suppressed.

On this side, the appearances of the Great Luo Golden Immortals in combat naturally caught the attention of Zhu Bajie and Sha Wujing.

Therefore, including the White Dragon Horse, they all came over when they saw the situation of the battle here.

“Wait? Isn’t that the Scorpion Demon from the Women’s Kingdom!?” Zhu Bajie said with a surprised look as he saw the suppressed side in the battle.

“Yes! It really is her! How did she end up here!?” Following Zhu Bajie’s words, Sha Wujing also nodded and said.

While speaking, looking at the situation in the battle arena, Sha Wujing’s face was filled with amazement.

“This, this Peacock Princess is so strong! She seems to be even stronger than our senior brother!” Sha Wujing said in amazement, closely watching the battle in the arena.

Although they had stayed in Peacock Valley for quite a while, the Peacock Princess had never taken action from beginning to end.

Whether it was during the siege of the myriad demons or the subsequent execution of Manjushri and Samantabhadra.

She only stood out in the end, showing her stance to protect Jiang Liu in front of Kong Xuan.

But now, watching her fight with the Scorpion Demon personally, both Sha Wujing and Zhu Bajie were dumbfounded.

It turns out the Peacock Princess was so formidable?

From the displayed strength, she was almost no less than Manjushri Bodhisattva and Samantabhadra Bodhisattva, right?

“Indeed powerful!” Following Sha Wujing’s words, Zhu Bajie also nodded in agreement, looking dumbfounded.

Normally seeing the Peacock Princess’ gentle demeanor in front of their master, he had thought she was weak-minded. Who would have thought that when she fought, she was so terrifying.

Zhu Bajie could never forget that back in the Women’s Kingdom, even with the three brothers working together, they couldn’t defeat this Scorpion Demon.

But now, she was being completely suppressed by the Peacock Princess?

“Master is indeed incredible! Such a high-cultivation, extraordinary princess is also devoted to him…” Watching the Peacock Princess’ means, Zhu Bajie admired Jiang Liu even more.

If he had half the skill in courting women that his master had, he would gladly die for it.

Not to mention Zhu Bajie and Sha Wujing, who were all dumbfounded. In the battlefield, the Peacock Princess moved with elegance, waving her feather fan continuously.

The overwhelming flames, sometimes merging and sometimes dividing, pressed towards the Scorpion Demon with unparalleled agility.

Under the pursuit of these flames, the Scorpion Demon fled everywhere, her heart growing heavy.

With the cultivation level of a Great Luo Golden Immortal, the Scorpion Demon was originally very confident in her strength, which is why she dared to appear openly and cause trouble for the Peacock Princess.

Who would have thought she would kick against such a tough opponent today?

This person who appeared from nowhere had a cultivation level far higher than her own.

More importantly, the other party’s abilities seemed to restrain hers significantly!

“What to do? Should I escape just like this?”

As she dodged, the Scorpion Demon muttered to herself, thinking about her strategy.

To jump out openly to cause trouble and then flee in defeat?

If that was the case, how would she ever have any face in the future?

More importantly, if this person clung to the Sect Hierarch in the future, wouldn’t she be at a loss?

At the headquarters of the Ming Sect, she considered herself the Hierarch’s wife!

…

Whoosh Whoosh!

In the sky, Jiang Liu and Sun Wukong were flying towards Peacock Valley. After completing the Magic-Forbidden Circle and the mission, Jiang Liu could feel the more general and greater power of faith converging towards him.

And this power of faith was also transforming into destiny.

“Master, look over there at Peacock Valley…” Flying in the sky, Sun Wukong suddenly reminded Jiang Liu.

Jiang Liu raised his head and looked carefully towards Peacock Valley.

Sure enough, despite the great distance, the scene of overwhelming flames in Peacock Valley was still clearly visible to Jiang Liu.

“Oh no, is there trouble in Peacock Valley!?” Seeing this, Jiang Liu’s heart tightened.

The face of the Peacock Princess had influence even in front of a grand character like Kong Xuan.

Who on earth dared to make trouble in Peacock Valley?

With doubts in his heart, Jiang Liu quickened his Cloud Ascending Leaps, flying towards Peacock Valley.

With merely a few hundred miles of distance, it didn’t take long before Jiang Liu arrived at Peacock Valley.

“Peacock Princess and the Scorpion Demon? Why are they fighting!?” Arriving at Peacock Valley and seeing the situation of the fighting sides, Jiang Liu was relieved inside but still more surprised.

Looking at the Peacock Princess, she seemed fine, her health bar above her head was very healthy.

But looking at the Scorpion Demon’s side, she seemed in a bad state, her health bar had dropped to about half.

Many parts of her body were charred, indicating severe injuries.

The black dress she wore was already filled with temptations, but now several parts were burned by flames.

In her dodging movements, her alluring figure and revealing spring light made onlookers’ blood boil even more.

Needless to say, just looking at Zhu Bajie with his eyes wide open and drool at the corner of his mouth could reflect the seductive power of the Scorpion Demon.

“Stop!”

Jiang Liu took a deep breath, forcibly controlled his gaze away from the Scorpion Demon, and shouted.

After all, the Scorpion Demon was considered a member of the Ming Sect, and the Peacock Princess had saved his life; no matter who got hurt.

Stuck between these two women, it was difficult for him to handle the situation.

Following Jiang Liu’s shout, the Peacock Princess glanced at him before closing up her feather fan.

At the same time, the overwhelming flames also retracted, and her figure retreated slightly.

“Hmph! I haven’t lost yet!”

Seeing that the Peacock Princess had retreated, the battered Scorpion Demon, still angry, shouted loudly and directly lunged at the Peacock Princess, while the Inverted Horse Stake struck again.

Seeing this, Jiang Liu frowned slightly and then chanted an incantation.

With Jiang Liu’s incantation, the Scorpion Demon’s movements were immediately controlled by Jiang Liu. Her attack stopped entirely, and she retreated to Jiang Liu’s side.

“Let go of me! I haven’t lost!”

Though she had retreated to Jiang Liu’s side, the Scorpion Demon was still unwilling, struggling, and twisting.

But she couldn’t break free at all.

The Tight Hoop, initially put on the Black Bear Demon’s head by Jiang Liu, could be tightened with incantations, causing unbearable pain.

The Golden Hoop, previously placed on the Scorpion Demon back in the Women’s Kingdom by Jiang Liu.

The five-part hoop was respectively placed on her head and four limbs.

This was the original Golden Hoop that Guanyin used to subdue the Red Boy.

When chanted, it could control the opponent’s movements like manipulating a puppet. Naturally, Jiang Liu used this to successfully stop the Scorpion Demon.

“Oh?” Watching Jiang Liu chant and completely control the Scorpion Demon’s movements, the Peacock Princess’ eyes flashed with a trace of surprise.

It seemed this female demon who fought her was really acquainted with the Holy Monk earlier.

Moreover, their relationship seemed quite unusual?

“Sigh, why did you come here?” After controlling the Scorpion Demon with the Golden Hoop, Jiang Liu sighed helplessly, asking the Scorpion Demon.

“Didn’t I tell you already? I sensed the presence of other women on you, so I came to check it out!” The Scorpion Demon answered Jiang Liu’s question.

Speaking, her gaze swept cautiously over the Peacock Princess.

A beautiful, noble, and elegant woman, whose cultivation was even higher than her own, yet entangled with the Sect Hierarch!?

This woman was a great threat, greater than the Mysterious Bird!
