Not only them, the girls on the street also stared at him as if they were going to eat him.

  "Whoa! It's enviable! She is speaking to Master Kingfisher!"

  "Why is she but not me?!"

  "I also wanted to greet Master Kingfisher!"

  "Is it because Master Kingfisher likes maid uniforms?"

  "No! That can't be true!"

  Ok, now Yun Xi knew the name of the elf. It seemed that he was famous here.

  That wasn't surprising. After all, even in the Western God's Domain, it was rare for elves to appear in public, not to mention that he came to this remote sword domain.

  Kingfisher was probably the only elf in the entire White Lotus Sword Domain. If the mysterious dark elf, Black Moon had left this sword domain.

  Chapter 351: Elf Illness

  "'Kingfisher' is my name." Kingfisher noticed Yun Xi's confusion. He said and walked to him leisurely.

  His body wasn't as delicate as Black Moon's but was very tall.

  His appearance and body had suppressed the boundary of gender. When he stood in front of Yun Xi, he looked sparkling.

  "When I was born in the Flower of Life, a beautiful kingfisher sang beside the flower, so I was called 'Kingfisher' in the elf forest." Kingfisher smiled and explained.

  At that time, he was a quiet elf who only loved arts. The corolla he made was very popular in the elf forest.

  If the Demons hadn't come, he would probably become the best of the numbered Corolla Producers in the forest.

  "Oh... hello, Kingfisher..." Yun Xi felt more confused. He felt that he knew the elf, but it couldn't be his memory but an impulse from the maid uniform he was wearing. Because of this, he stopped and greeted to the elf just now.

  "Well... if you don't want to drink, how about having a walk?" Kingfisher said without any displeasure of being refused.

  It was also a fresh experience to be refused by someone to him.

  As a rare Demon Slayer, the hero of the Demon War, rarely there were people who would refuse him, no matter where he was.

  If he asked, even the master of the elf race, the holder of the Life Tree Crown, the Elf Queen would consider seriously, not to mention the common kings and emperors of the mortal world.

  When he decided to recruit partners, the families of the human world would be scrambling to recommend the best children of their families.

  When young boys and girls looked at him, their eyes were always full of longing and adoration, and they would think every word of his words was the truth of the universe.

  Some people even recorded his words when they left the team and made it become their family instructions.

  Hundreds of years had passed, and he had had hundreds of partners, but no one dared to say "no" to him.

  "Williams, I find that there really are differences amongst different people." Kite half squatted down on the ground like a loser dog and his face was covered with tears.

  "You just knew it? There are surely differences amongst different people!" Williams also cried with him.

  This must be the so-called "pain of youth".

  He heard that Kite's ancestors also had the same illness just like his ancestors.

  He finally knew what the unspoken words on the record of his family were.

  However, it was too late to find the truth.

  They were already helpless!

  "Oh... ok..." Compared to the knight and the mage, Yun Xi didn't feel too much from the elf, because he had had the dark elf girl.

  Only an "elf" could heal the illness called "elf". Kite and Williams didn't have the Mist Soul Army, naturally, they couldn't summon Mist Souls just like Yun Xi.

  In the entire universe, only Yun Xi could do this. When all was quiet at dead of night, he would put on the White Emperor Mask and summoned the Dark Elf's Mist Soul, asking it to dance for him.

  Of course, apart from his star spirit Mei'er, no one knew about this.

  Speaking of Mei'er, Yun Xi looked around and found that it disappeared.

  After he accomplished the trial on the Water God's Fantasy Island, Mei'er obtained much more power and that could let it leave Yun Xi for a period of time. It seemed that it found something just now and ran to a corner on the street.

  "Master, I just found something good!" When Yun Xi started to worry about Mei'er, its sound appeared inside his mind.

  "What is it?" Yun Xi said and walked to Kingfisher, strolling around the street under the jealous eyes of Kite, Williams and the girls on the street.

  "It's... whoa! No, something is wrong!" Mei'er suddenly cried, which giving Yun Xi a shiver.

  No, is she getting in trouble?

  "These ice-type pine nuts taste cold but are very delicious. They are imported goods from the Dragon God's Domain, do you want to have a try?" Kingfisher peeled the pin nuts and handed them over to Yun Xi.

  "Oh... thanks." Yun Xi took over the pine nuts from his hands.

  Compared to human's hands, the elf's hands were soft. Only the favourite of nature could be born with such a pair of hands.

  "Williams, does Kingfisher like maids?" Kite gazed at them and clenched his fists.

  "Don't think too much. Just what the proverb in this god's domain says, enduring for a while, you shall appease the dispute; retreating a step, you will get a broadened mind." As a mage, Williams was as knowledgeable as his ancestors.

  "I think my mind is not right. I must be ill." Kite pressed his hand on his forehead. He finally realized how happy it was to be an ignorant young warrior who only knew to fight.

  Eat and drink all day, never retreat when facing enemies. He was the steel shield of the whole team. Apart from battle, he never needed to worry about anything else.

  This was the tradition of Kite's family. A lot of well-known Holy Knights were from his family. He was always proud of his knight ancestors and swore that he would become an excellent knight too.

  But now...

  Williams heavily patted him on his shoulders.

  "Kite, you are not alone."

  Chapter 352: Black Dog

  "Woof!" With a pitiful barking, Mei'er rushed to her master from the corner of the street.

  "Boom!" A beast which should never appear on such a street was chasing after her.

  It was a black beast that was as tall as a man and as strong as a bull. Its four limbs were covered by thick bones and had sword shaped protrusions on its head, shoulders and hind legs. The most frightening thing was that it had four blood red eyes.

  Hunger, ferocity, the desire of hunting and a primeval instinct flooded inside its eyes.

  "Master, help!" Mei'er was going to cry. Its body toppled down to the ground after running to Yun Xi's feet.

  "A Golden Fairy?" Kingfisher looked at Mei'er in surprise. Even the elf race also liked this animal very much, because it was a full blooded golden dog that could bring good luck to its master.

  "Golden Fairy" was a rare imperial golden retriever. Moreover, this dog obviously had the purest bloodline. Even in the entire Western God's Domain, it was a kind of favourite endangered animal.

  In order to stop this kind of dog from dying out, people tried all sorts of methods.

  To put it bluntly, even one of its paws was more valuable than a small city.

  "No, it's just a common golden dog fed by me!" Yun Xi quickly shook his head.

  Don't lie!

  How can it not be a Golden Fairy?

  Kite didn't know what the Golden Fairy was, but as a knowledgeable mage, Williams saw through Yun Xi's lie at a glance.

  How could any common golden dog have its pure golden fur, wise big eyes and a pair of black obsidian like pupils?

  Williams once saw the real Golden Fairy with his own eyes, so he was sure that it was the best Golden Fairy, a Golden Princess!

  Although it was just a dog, it was actually more valuable than most princesses of the kingdoms in the Western God's Domain.

  However, since she was the real "princess" that was recognized by Kingfisher, it wasn't surp
rising to see that she had a Golden Princess.

  It was the highest token of identity that was more distinguished than diamonds or gold, because proud Golden Fairies would only accept the oldest, most excellent royals as their masters.

  Kingfisher was right, this maid really had the bloodline of the oldest kingdom in the Western God's Domain!

  "Ululu... ululu..." Looking at Mei'er running to Yun Xi, the black beast roared. Its four paws firmly caught to in soil like an eagle's talons, and the sword shaped protrusions lightly fluttered on its body.

  "Black Demon Dog..." Kingfisher realized what this black beast was.

  It was an avatar of disaster.

  No one knew where the first Black Demon Dog came from, but these nightmare creatures indeed appeared in the Western God's Domain together with Demons. Their four eyes were the symbols of them, a single Black Demon Dog could even rout an army of 1000 mortals.

  They could also obtain different abilities after evolving into different higher forms. They were the favorite war machines of the Demons.

  It seemed that the Black Demon Dog on the street was still in its initial form, but even a Black Demon Dog that hadn't evolved could be equal in force with a common hero ranked human.

  This kind of dark creatures had twisted the rules of the world since the beginning of their birth. Just like the blood thirsty Demons, they belonged to "that side".

  It was said that even a god was killed by the strongest Black Demon Dog. It was the ultimate war machine of the Demons.

  "Roar!" Being suppressed by Kingfisher's aura, the Black Demon Dog emitted a sharp roar. The bones on its body started to spread and covered its whole body as blood lines appeared on the bones.

  Suddenly, sunlight disappeared... no, it was the aura of the Black Demon Dog spreading and covered the entire street.

  "Dark Skyfall?" Kingfisher frowned. It was too strong to be a Black Demon Dog’s ability, since it was still in its initial form. Maybe the Demons had developed some new technologies.

  The fact that a Black Demon Dog appeared in the mortal world itself had indicated that the seal had become unstable. Maybe the Demons still couldn't go to this world, but their low-level war machines like the Black Demon Dog were already able to pass through the seal.

  "Roar!" Being covered by thick black mists, the Black Demon Dog rushed towards Yun Xi, like a nightmare ran out of the deepest darkness.

  The look in its blood red eyes, was unbearably thirsty for blood!

  As the Demons' war machine, Black Demon Dogs wouldn't feel fear. It would attack its enemy till it killed its enemy or was killed, no matter how strong its enemy was.

  "Ding!" The Crane Wings Twin Sword drew two mysterious traces in the air, blocking the dog's paws precisely, but the strong power still made Yun Xi take a step back.

  This monster dog is strong! Although Yun Xi wasn't wearing the White Emperor Mask, common hero ranked beings couldn't force him to step back now. The monster dog's strength was stronger than most common hero ranked beings.

  If taking green hippo as a reference, this black monster dog's strength was dozens of times stronger than a common green hippo.

  "Hiss!" The attack was just a try to figure out how strong Yun Xi was. The Black Demon Dog roared and increased its strength again.

  "Master, be careful, it can keep evolving in battle." Mei'er's voice appeared inside Yun Xi's mind.

  She was too unlucky. She suddenly met the big black dog and was being "loved" by it. In order to obtain Mei'er's heart, it had started its wild "pursuit".

  Chapter 353: The Pleasant Princess

  "Black Demon Dog..." Yun Xi didn't know why but he knew its name was "Black Demon Dog", although he had never seen such a black dog before.

  He felt as if he was very familiar with it.

  Its weak point was under its neck three centimetres.

  Its heart wasn't its weak point, neither its head. The only weak point of this creature was its "core", which could let the Black Demon Dog keep eating and evolving.

  The easiest way to kill a Black Demon Dog was to stab a sword into its neck, then cut through its body and tear it open from the inside!

  Only a dead Black Demon Dog is a docile dog! Suddenly, a flash of killing intent appeared inside Yun Xi's eyes.

  "This is..." Kingfisher was ready to aim his bow and kill the Black Demon Dog with one shot, but he stopped after seeing Yun Xi's expression, and shook his hand at Kite and Williams.

  "Puff... puff..." The Black Demon Dog also saw the killing intent in Yun Xi's eyes, which made it feel very uncomfortable, as if there was a memory that had been engraved in its bloodline.

  It became grumpier and stared at Yun Xi fiercely, even ignoring the elf who was a much higher threat to it.

  It was a hatred that had been remembered by the instinct of its body!

  The bone armour on its body became thinner but much sharper. After losing a few defence points, its speed and strength were increased greatly.

  Defence meant nothing in front of this enemy. It needed to be faster and stronger! This was what the Black Demon Dog obtained from its bloodline along with a crazy killing intent.

  "Let's play." Yun Xi put down the shopping basket and held the Crane Wings Twin Swords in his hands.

  His mind was very clear now that he could hear the flowing of his blood.

  He wasn't wearing the White Emperor Mask, but he was in high spirits.

  After seeing the Black Demon Dog, something woke up inside his bloodline.

  "Roar!" The Black Demon Dog jumped to the roof of the building beside the street, running crazily around Yun Xi.

  Yun Xi felt more and more stressful as it ran. It seemed that it was a meaningless running, but was actually a special hunting rite of the Black Demon Dog, which could even shake the heart of a hero ranked being.

  When it turned the 18 rounds, the battle broke out.

  "Hiss!" With a sharp sound breaking the wind, three figures pounced at Yun Xi from three directions.

  "Triplex Attack... the basic ability of the second form..." Kingfisher recognized this skill.

  When a Black Demon Dog was in its initial form, it would only know to attack any living creature following its ravening instinct, but after eating enough flesh and blood of strong creatures, it would be able to develop and evolve into different forms.

  Triplex Attack was one of the strongest abilities a nimble-type Black Demon Dog could have after it entered its second form. One was real and the other two were fake shadows, but the attacks from the two fake shadows were real. If one only regarded them as common shadows and didn't dodge them, the person would pay a heavy price.

  "One, two, three." A dangerous light flashed inside Yun Xi's eyes.

  Pleasure, stimulation, excitement and a special feeling were affecting his mind, activating his body into a special state.

  Yes, this is a battle, this will become a killing.

  There won't be anything else but the simplest idea of killing each other.

  Smelling the sweet smell of blood, dancing in hell.

  Let's party!

  First, cut off its paws!

  Yun Xi didn't even look at the three figures with his eyes. His body naturally danced and his hands subconsciously brandished the twin swords, then the Black Demon Dog's true body suffered a heavy blow, and one of its paws was easily cut off.

  "Ooroo!" Before the Black Demon Dog's poor head understood what was happening, its belly was kicked and its body rolled on the ground.

  The next is to break its bone armour!

  The light of sword flashed in the air again. Yun Xi used a sword skill he had never used before, stripping off the Black Demon Dog's bone armour instantly.

  After losing its bone armour, it was just a strong black dog. Moreover, it had lost a paw.

  Pleasure! Pleasure! A brutal smile appeared on Yun Xi's face, as if he had become another person.

  "Oh... the whole thing still went down in this direction." Looking at his smile, Kingf
isher sighed.

  Nothing has changed.

  The Killing Princess is still the Killing Princess.

  Maybe she could preserve her sanity at other times, but would instantly go crazy as long as she saw anything about the Demons.

  In this mood, the Killing Princess wouldn't stop, until she had killed all the Demons in her sight.
