Chapters 3088-3097 Escaped Prisoners 3

3088 Surrounded by an 8 star and a 9 star, NL could easily defeat them individually but isn’t a match against both, as SL and the bat rush to help. Realizing SL is too weak to be YH, the rotund demon mocks the bat for becoming a contract beast and for daring to go against them. While NL and the bat are a star lower than their opponents, SL is confident in NL’s abilities, taking out all her pets to assist the bat against the 8 star. The rotund demon mocks her for being so weak, telling her she needs to pay for YH’s actions.

3089 The rotund demon laughs at the suggestion that he might lose, having already taken over Purgatory City, one of the continent’s strongest forces. Despising the bat for siding with humans, he slaps it away, when SL’s war puppet sneaks an attack, only for its arms to be torn off. Depressed, SL sends it back to her space, thinking of how to deal with the escaped prisoners, when the rotund demon notices the little dragon. Smirking, he identifies it as a creature from the Spirit World and that he and his brothers should raid its treasures, as SL puts the rest of her defeated pets away. As NL’s fight reaches a critical stage, ⅓ of his attention is still on SL, fighting off the square demon when he notices the rotund one approach her.

3090 Shocked at NL’s potential, the square demon resolves to remove him before he’s strong enough to defeat them combined, calling the lanky demon for support. The lanky demon reminds him they were just unlucky to run into YH but other humans can’t compare. Looking at SL, they recall the trauma of meeting YH; while realizing NL had forced the square demon to a standstill. The rotund demon proposes a truce.

3091 Author’s note about the next day’s release but no chapter

3092 However the other demons realize that they might not be able to defeat NL soon, and decide to team up and remove him while they still can. The lanky demon then laughs when SL asks if other prisoners would arrive. She smirks that she doesn’t need to wait for anyone else, before using the CLD to summon CZ just as the rotund demon punches NL. Suddenly, a terrifying force comparable to YH appears, as the entire base cheers at the sight of CZ floating in the sky, with some crying from relief.

3093 The crowd is confident in CZ’s abilities, yelling for him to punish the Empress as the elders surround her, tying her up and leading her away from the base. CZ ignores the lanky demon’s questions, breaking 3 of his ribs with a single punch as the crowd cheers him on.

3094 Shocked, the lanky demon suddenly realizes his strength has disappeared. Recalling clones should only contain 1% of the original’s strength, the lanky demon is shocked that CZ’s is at Ascension level. Hearing this, SL is stunned by his strength, since no one on the continent could even compare to his clone. While the rotund demon argues for him to hold CZ off until they finish off NL, the lanky demon realizes why SL had asked about the other prisoners.

3095 Since his brothers didn’t heed his warning, the lanky demon runs off by himself, when CZ’s arm extends after him. The demon contemplates begging for mercy, when he feels a sharp pain as his head rolls from his body. Watching the blood spurt out of his severed neck, the demon closes his eyes before dying. The crowd is shocked at CZ’s strength, before erupting in cheers. CZ then walks towards the bloodied NL as he fights off the remaining 2 demons, when the demons realize their leader had already been defeated.

3096 Furious that the lanky demon met with such a humiliating end, the two demons rush towards CZ with their strongest attacks, when he sweeps his sleeve, wiping away their techniques away. Fearing him almost as much as YH, the demons turn to flee. But since they had bullied SL, CZ won’t let them off, instantly grabbing them with one hand each, before bashing their heads together, cracking their skulls.

3097 CZ then tosses their corpses aside, with his white robes completely stainless, as the Purgatory City members gaze at him filled with worship. Watching CZ, NL realizes just how lacking his own strength is, when he notices the admiration in SL’s eyes as she stares at CZ, and resolves to surpass him. Meanwhile CZ is laughing while rubbing SL’s head, leaving the crowd stunned that he can laugh so freely, when he tells SL to deal with the remaining 6 demons herself since the CLD will only summon him once every 3 years. He then turns to NL, asking about the dragon phoenix shadow resurfacing.
