Fantasy: I'm Really Not A Supreme Master!

a dark shadow was rapidly approaching.

Before long, it had already appeared outside the world barrier.

“Demon Monarch, are you sure she is within this realm?”

The man carrying the little girl respectfully inquired.

“Of course, hurry up, hurry up! I’ve already smelled her scent!”

The man nodded and said, “Alright!”

“However, this world seems to be, at most, a lower Earth Character Realm. 1 fear it may not be able to accommodate your subordinate from entering…” He took a step forward to try, but to his surprise, in the next moment, both he and the little girl riding on his neck had already passed directly through the world barrier!

“Hm? What’s going on here?”

The man was puzzled.

After all, he was of Great Luo Golden Demon strength, a Demon Marshal.

In the Lower World… unless it was one of the Three Great Heavenly Realms, or some very special high-grade Earth Character Realm, nothing else could accommodate him!

But this world before his eyes wasn’t part of those realms at all…

“It’s no wonder this is where the Demon Monarch’s Primeval Soul is hidden; indeed, there’s something special about it.”

He murmured to himself.

“Quick, over there. 1 feel like I’ve gotten one step closer to her,” the little girl continued, pointing towards the center of this world.

The man immediately stepped forth.

Having reached the Great Luo Golden Demon Realm in his cultivation, spatial distance was already just a numerical concept for him. With a single step, he crossed several states in the next moment!

Soon, they appeared in Xuan Tianzhou.

“Something’s wrong, why is the Immortal Spirit Qi here so dense…”

The man was taken aback.

It could almost compare to some of the strongest Earth Character Realms!

Yet, with a sweep of his divine sense, he comprehended the lay of the land and didn’t detect any particularly strong Cultivators.

“It seems this world is a newly formed one. What on earth does the Demon Monarch’s another Primeval Soul, in hiding here, intend to do?”

He muttered to himself.

“To the south…”

The little girl continued to speak, directing him.

Before long, they had already arrived outside the Cangli Mountain Range. “This area is a bit strange, so be careful,” the little girl on his neck reminded him with her large, sinister eyes showing a hint of suspicion.

Upon reaching this point, they didn’t rush ahead but approached slowly. “Hmm? I can sense a faint trace of Demonic Qi, very light.”

The man spoke up, his eyes lifting to see the small mountain village ahead!

“I see, it must be someone Gong Ya sent to protect the Demon Monarch’s

Primeval Soul. Hehe, such an important matter as the Monarch’s Primeval Soul is guarded only by a minor Golden Demon?”

He understood the other’s realm from the Demonic Qi he had sensed.

The two immediately neared the small mountain village.

And at this moment,

inside the village,

in a corner against a wall,

a bald man was sitting cross-legged on the ground, his clothes somewhat tattered, with a broken bowl placed before him, just like a beggar!

This person was none other than Ming Tianbei, who had previously escorted the Demon Monarch’s Primeval Soul to escape to the small village!

He was fortunate to stay in the village, and because of his ragged appearance, the villagers took him for a beggar.

The kind-hearted Auntie Wang even gave him a broken bowl.

This made Ming Tianbei, a formidable Demon Guard, nearly moved to tears, as the bowl meant the villagers occasionally gave him some food.

And those food items were almost exclusively Spiritual Medicine.

Hence, he led a shameless and easygoing beggar’s life in the mountain village. It was only a few months of such a life, but he had already broken through from the Xuanmo Realm to the Golden Demon Realm!

This made him realize the best days of his life had finally arrived!

But at this moment, Ming Tianbei, who was cultivating, suddenly changed his expression.

He had sensed two terrifying demonic presences!

“Not good!”

His expression changed drastically.

Gleaning up, he looked towards the edge of the village and saw a middle-aged man with demonic patterns on his forehead entering the village.

On his neck rode a little girl.

“Jing Mie, the Demon Marshal… and another of the Demon Monarch’s Primeval

Souls, have they come knocking?”

Hiss!

Ming Tianbei gasped, turned, and sprinted towards Li Fan’s courtyard!

This matter was too significant; he must immediately inform Gong Ya, the Demon Marshal, and the Demon Monarch!

It should be known that after the Nine Holy Demon Monarch failed to breakthrough to become the Immortal King, his Nine Soul Paths scattered in different places, each guarded by one of his nine Demon Marshals. And the Primeval Souls were destined to devour each other!

He quickly vanished from the spot.

Meanwhile, at the village entrance,

“He’s running away!”

On Jing Mie’s neck, the little girl pointed in the direction Ming Tianbei fled and said:

“He’s definitely going to snitch. We need to catch up quickly!”

However, Jingmie Demon Marshal at this moment was sweating profusely. As soon as he entered the small village, he felt a dreadful oppression.

“Demon Monarch… this place, this place seems to be a forbidden area…”

He spoke hoarsely, pointing forward and saying:

“There are traps everywhere. Look, that wooden bridge—if one is careless and falls off, even a Great Luo Golden Demon would be refined!”

“That green grass field, full of Sword Qi. Once entered, I might not be able to come out unscathed.”

“And those seemingly simple stone houses clearly contain terrifying principles…”

He spoke word by word, his voice laced with fear.

Even as a Demon Marshal, how could he not fear when entering the fabled forbidden land?

It was precisely because of the lethal dangers everywhere that made him simply watch Ming Tianbei flee.

Otherwise, how could he let him go? Alerting Gong Ya, the Demon Marshal, and the Primeval Soul of the Nine Holy Demon Monarch to their presence would be like startling the snake in the grass.

“I can feel it too… this place makes me very uncomfortable.”

The little girl on his neck also spoke, frowning and saying:

“If it really is a forbidden area, then we’re in trouble. Seeing how fast that Demon Guard ran just now, he obviously knows this place well. Could it be that the Master of the Forbidden Area has accepted another Primeval Soul…”

“We must hurry up!”

Jing Mie Demon Marshal also nodded, and immediately quickened his pace with each step he took.

However, at this moment, his nerves were already taut!

Not much later, outside Li Fan’s courtyard.

“Miss Gong Ya, something big has happened, something big has happened!” The anxious voice of Ming Tianbei rang out!

He didn’t dare to approach and could only shout from a distance.

Previously, Gong Ya knew that Li Fan lived in seclusion like a mortal and did not like to meddle in cultivators’ affairs, so she had specifically instructed Ming Tianbei to call her as Miss Gong Ya in urgent situations, not to mention the word “Demon Marshal” to avoid displeasing Senior Li.

Meanwhile, inside the courtyard.

Gong Ya was brewing tea for Li Fan, her gaze intently observing how the boiling water forced steam out of the tea leaves.

After the last guidance from Li Fan, she had sensed the key to progressing from the Great Luo Golden Demon Realm toward Immortality, so now she was contemplating that profound principle!

Outside the door, the sudden sound of Ming Tianbei’s voice made Gong Ya lift her eyes, a flicker of indecision crossing her gaze.

What could have made Ming Tianbei so anxious?

She looked at Xinning.

Xinning said, “Go and see what’s happening.”

Respectfully, Gong Ya bowed to Li Fan and said, “Master, may your maidservant step out for a moment?”

Li Fan said, “Go ahead.”

Gong Ya immediately hurried out of the courtyard.

“What exactly happened, why such panic?”

Gong Ya Demon Marshal asked Ming Tianbei!

Ming Tianbei knelt down on the ground in a frightened state, and said: “Reporting to the Demon Marshal, Jing Mie Demon Marshal, accompanied by another Demon Monarch’s Primeval Soul, has already arrived at the village entrance…”

Upon hearing this, Gong Ya was greatly startled!

Jing Mie!

As one of the nine Demon Marshals under the Nine Holy Demon Monarch of bygone days, she was very clear about his strength.

He was one of the strongest among the nine Demon Marshals.

Moreover, there was another Demon Monarch’s Primeval Soul…

Based on the timeline, the Primeval Soul that Jing Mie Demon Marshal was assisting had emerged earlier than Xinning, and was certainly far stronger than her.

“I understand.”

Her voice turned grim as she said, “Find a place to hide. You needn’t get involved in this matter.”

A mere Golden Demon was not fit to participate in a struggle of this level.

Ming Tianbei immediately nodded and ran off.

Gong Ya turned back and returned to the courtyard.

“Demon Monarch, it’s bad. Jing Mie is coming with another Primeval Soul…”

She communicated to Xinning through a mental message.

A look of tension immediately passed through Xinning’s clear, large eyes! Clearly, she, too, was concerned!

“What’s wrong? Has an enemy come?”

At that moment, Li Fan asked.

Previously, Xinning had been pursued by her enemies, and that Ming Tianbei seemed to be Xinning’s bodyguard. Now that he’d come running in such a fluster, it was likely her enemies had caught up…

Li Fan speculated in his heart.

Hesitating for a moment, Xinning turned and looked at Li Fan, saying:

“Big Brother… 1,1 have a sister, and she has come looking for me…”

Upon hearing this, Li Fan was momentarily surprised. Xinning had a sister?

But then he immediately smiled and said,

“A reunion of sisters, that’s wonderful.”

Xinning said:

“But, but this sister, she wants to kill me. Only by doing so can she inherit what belongs to me…”

Hearing that, Li Fan was taken aback.

Such a plot twist? To actually come across such a situation?

It seemed that Xinning indeed came from a wealthy family, and it was even possible that she was a princess of some sort, like in the novels…

Such wealthy households often witnessed deadly infighting over inheritance. “That’s rather malevolent!”

Li Fan too found it unpleasant to see. During their time together, he had already come to see Xinning as a part of the little courtyard’s family.

And besides, after spending so much time with Li Fan, reading poetry, Xinning had become increasingly docile and her big eyes ever more pure.

“Like this, you need not be afraid. Let them in, and 1’11 talk to them!”

Li Fan was determined to reason with them!

After all, this courtyard, this little village was his territory, with plenty of support available!

If a resolution through discussion could lead them to give up their pursuit, that would be for the best. But if it came to a fight, he wouldn’t back down!

Hearing this, Gong Ya Demon Marshal was suddenly overjoyed.

Heaven!

Such a formidable being was actually going to take action to help personally??

With such support, what could they fear??

The endgame was secure, the victory already assured!

Overwhelmed with excitement,

And Xinning, too, was stunned for a moment, a profound sense of gratitude blossoming in her heart.

All this time, this Senior had never stepped a foot outside the courtyard, never lent a hand to matters of the outside world!

But now, to help her, was he actually going to take action?

“Don’t stand there dazed, go on.” Li Fan motioned to Gong Ya.

“As you command, as you command!”

Gong Ya, her chest heaving with excitement, turned and once again stepped out of the courtyard.

As she opened the courtyard’s main gate, she saw a middle-aged man with a little girl riding on his neck already approaching.

The middle-aged man was sweating profusely, looking as if he’d just endured a terrifying battle.

And the little girl riding on his neck radiated an aura filled with sinister energy!

“Hee hee hee, got you!”

The little girl looked at Gong Ya and suddenly let out a giggling laugh!
