Chapter 958 - 470: The Demon’s Purpose

Chapter 958: Chapter 470: The Demon’s Purpose

Upon seeing Li Ang, Inanna’s cheeks were flushed with a rosy hue, her legs recoiled, and she nervously shifted to the side.

From the looks of it, this was still the demonized aspect.

She began searching around again, and when she saw Liluliss nearby, she bit her lip and let out a low growl.

This appearance... almost like seeing the youthful stance of a little puppy from earlier.

"Um..."

Li Ang was just about to speak to her when Inanna suddenly got up, ran to the entrance of the tree hole, and lay there, watching the Evil King Demon Remains disappearing into the distance.

"That thing is probably the ’Ten Thousand Spirits’ enemy they want you to eliminate."

The Dragon Maiden turned her head to Li Ang and said.

As if afraid to look at Arunak’s demon remains any longer, she quickly retreated back into the tree hole.

"So that guy was because of you all... oh, I don’t know your names yet," Lily said.

"My name is Li Ang." "Miss Lily, I am called Diao."

The Spiritual Forger and Druid Maiden briefly introduced themselves, and Liluliss memorized their names with a big smile.

"This is Inanna, the embodiment of the Earth Dragon that sustains the world."

Seeing the demonized consciousness surfacing with the Dragon Maiden’s shy demeanor, Li Ang voluntarily introduced her to the Dragon God Witch.

"So you’re called Inanna, oh right, I forgot earlier," Liluliss said, smiling at the Dragon Maiden.

"You know?" Li Ang looked at her.

"Yes, there are related books in the sect, given by the grand old woman. After Little Baha’s creation, the power spread, with part of it obtained by the six element-controlling dragons, who inherited the Father God’s duty to maintain world stability due to their birth attributes. Did I get that right?"

"Very precise."

Li Ang was quite surprised that "Big Zoe" could accurately describe the origin of the Six Dragons.

"Because this is one of the main lessons, if you can’t remember it well, the grand old woman gets angry."

So that’s how it is.

Liluliss extended her palm to Inanna: "I sensed it earlier, you’re Little Baha’s child, we can get along well."

"No!" The Dragon Maiden said angrily.

"Uh." Liluliss looked quite hurt.

"Was it because I hit you? Did it hurt a lot when that happened?"

"Miss Lily, you better stop talking now."

Feeling Inanna’s anger rising, Li Ang stopped Lily.

He took the opportunity to explain to the black-haired girl why he entered the Land of Ten Thousand Spirits, and his simple experiences along the way.

"Oh, so you encountered demons too..."

"What? Ancient world? That’s wonderful, I also want to see it. Little Baha said he has many children, but he never can explain it clearly..."

Liluliss listened to Li Ang’s storytelling like a child, with emotional ups and downs for their encounters.

"A witch, is it? Our sect has many, so this profession has that kind of lineage."

Regarding the inheritance information about witches, it seems either the sect knows little or the grand old woman didn’t teach Lily much; she’s not familiar with more details, even though she knows how to use curse arts.

Li Ang asked Lily a bit about the magic she knows. He had long been very curious about one thing: in the notes written by Zoe’s father, she seemed to understand magic that changes people’s minds, having used it on islanders on Satus Island for Zoe’s protection.

Seeing her demonstrate the casting process seemed indeed quite peculiar.

Lily said she understood all similar magic, and because Li Ang possessed part of the Magic Power Magic Scripture and now held the Spiritual Forger profession, these spells were fully decipherable. They were precisely a combination of divine art, arcane, and curse art to achieve effects that regular casters couldn’t accomplish.

This could even be considered a new system, since ultimately it acts on the level of the spirit, also counting as an evolution of curse art.

"Regardless of the angle, as someone who inherits the path of the witch and returns it to its rightful path, the Ten Thousand Spirits probably truly wants me to deal with that thing."

Li Ang rubbed his forehead and sighed, adding: "And I have this duty, as that thing looks like it’s devouring the entire flow of the River of Spirits. Over time, Nebis’ new life’s birth will be affected, while it becomes a brand new element for world destruction."

Though there are many world-destroying elements, currently most surround the Primordial Being and Deus People lineage, with Arunak merely a continuation of this connection to sin.

"That’s great, thank you for being willing to help me, really good friends."

"I haven’t agreed." Inanna said, arms crossed on the side.

"Oh right, we don’t know your purpose, what exactly are you pursuing?"

Li Ang looked at the Dragon Maiden. At this moment, she was unlike when in the Desolate Stage; Inanna in the Desolate Stage had only a change in personality, while the demonized Inanna appearing in the Illusion Realm seemed like another persona.

In the first Illusion Realm, she teamed up with the Demon King to attack; in the second Illusion Realm, she might have been here to assassinate Li Ang but ended up being subdued by chance.

Now, being taught by Lily, she appeared much more docile.

Inanna remained silent, Diao said: "She wants to breed Earth Dragon Descendants with the Great Witch—"

"No!" The Dragon Maiden jumped up in frustration, face flushed red.

She was so anxious she was speechless, while Li Ang saw the little grievance in Diao’s eyes. The brown-skinned maiden had long been discontented with the closeness between the Earth Dragon and him, using this chance to vent.

Under the gaze of the three, Inanna stammered for a long time, before simply closing her eyes.

When she opened them again, the red hue receded from her golden dragon pupils, and the gentle Inanna returned.
