Picked up a Demon King to be a Maid Chapter 223 – You Just Stay There and Watch

Was this the power of a red-eyed black cat? Just a simple wave of the claw would have such frightening power, they couldn't win no matter how many Lesser Devils they had.

However, Anderson's lament stopped there, since no matter how strong the air current was, that huge black cat already vanished.

“Puh…”

Fresh blood sprayed out from the gradually dispersing black mist, a maid with ragged clothes was kneeling on the floor with a deathly pale face and lips and couldn't even stand up.

“This damn contract!” Elena endured the sharp pain in her head and inwardly cursed.

She forgot something important, her progenitor's power wasn't something that an ordinary magic crystal could endure!

The magic crystal from before shattered because it took in her power, similarly, when she returned back to her original form, the large magic crystal that Lin Xiao gave her also couldn't contain that power and instantly shattered.

Without the crystal for support, and Lin Xiao wasn't next to her, the rebound was instantaneous and she had no way of fighting anymore.

“Wha… what happened?”

She was just a terrifying red-eyed black cat, why did she turn back into a maid?

Happiness came too fast and Anderson couldn't react in time.

“Damn Lin Xiao! If I survive, I'm going to kill you!” She didn't forget to curse that damn pervert even while she was in imminent danger.

But even if she was going to complain, she should wait until after she survives.

Although she was unbelievably weak, the good thing was that the surrounding Lesser Devils and Anderson were all stunned by her initial unstoppable attack and were still frozen in their spots so she had an opportunity to escape!

She clenched her teeth and staggeringly climbed up, and started running out of the cave.

“Hurry and catch her!”

Anderson finally came to his senses and quickly ordered his Lesser Devil army to chase her but he was a beat too slow.

Elena already crawled into the narrow passageways of the remains, and the Lesser Devil's large bodies were restrained and had no ways of quickly catching up to her!

“Damn pervert! How long are you going to frolic with that stinkin' woman?”

Elena stumbled down the small passageway, the constant sounds of walls being broken down behind her made her panic but she didn't dare look behind her, because she knew that they would catch up as soon as she stops.

“Damn, damn! What do you like about her? Hah? Is it her long legs? Do you like long legs more than ******? Damn pervert!”

The old walls were being crushed by the Lesser Devils one by one and caused the remains to rumble, like it could completely collapse at any time.

She didn't know why, but the more agitated she became, the more she wanted to curse at someone. She knew that she wouldn't get any response but she still wanted to release all her fear and anger onto that person that wasn't by herself, like everything was because of Lin Xiao, she didn't have to think of anything but curse at him!

If she died here, it was definitely all Lin Xiao's fault!

Elena continued to curse him while stumbling through the narrow passageway until she finally saw a ray of light in front of her!

The rumbling sounds were approaching her, she didn't dare turn around. As she approached the light, she gathered all her strength and leaped and was finally able to leave the remains.

The huge trees covered the skies, the green moss covered all that she could see… it was Despair Forest.

She finally saw the light of day, but before she could take a breath of fresh air, she heard a horrifying roar behind her.

One of the smaller Lesser Devils already caught up to her and had its arms raised ready to give her a fatal blow.

Even though Elena's perception skill clearly showed its path of attack, and she just had to take a couple of steps forward to easily dodge it, she couldn't control her body due to the intense headache. The rebound was still affecting her and her vision became blurry, it was already a miracle that she could remain standing.

“Eh?”

She thought that she was already dead but she suddenly felt her head clear up and the effect of the rebound lessened!

What was going on?

She couldn't worry about the reason and quickly took a step forwards, but that wasn't enough to evade the attack so she was forced to use her special move!

Demon King Battle Technique — roll!

Elena lowered her head and used the heavy mass of her upper body and fell straight forward.

The fatal blow brushed right over top her and she fell towards the floor, curled up and rolled away.

“Uh… I say Elena, even if you miss me, you don't have to welcome me like this, you know?”

She heard a familiar voice next to her.

She looked up and understood why her headache lessened.

Who else could it be but Lin Xiao?

“Tsk…”

Elena clenched her teeth and climbed up without minding the cuts and scrapes on her arms and legs. She brushed off the mud on her skirt and lifted the fabric that was sliding down her chest and stared at the Lesser Devils that came out of the remains, completely ignoring Lin Xiao.

Where was the thanks? The surprise? The tears of joy? Why was there no reaction?

“Hey, are you deaf or blind? Do you not recognize me?” Lin Xiao blinked and didn't understand why Elena was acting like that.

How come Shen DaiYing's reactions were completely different to hers?

Since she was being chased, shouldn't she be moved to see him.

“Elena, you…”

“Scram.”

“Hah?” Lin Xiao didn't hear clearly.

“I told you to scram!”

This time he heard her clearly, but he didn't know how to respond.

“You're not leaving? Fine.” Elena coldly snorted and used her hands to pinch her trembling legs and walked towards that group of monsters running out of the remains.

“Do you think I need your help? Hmph, what a joke! I'm the Demon King, do you think I need you to take care of these small fry?”

Elena took a deep breath and stubbornly used her fingers to wipe some blood off her arm and spread it onto her lips.

“Just stay there and watch!”
