My Goddess is Good at Pretending-Chapter 702: Proceed with Caution

Many lives were lost there, not only from the demonic cultivators but also from several righteous forces.

"What a terrifying sight..." Meiying muttered softly, looking at the hundreds of people who had died in battle before they even arrived.

"Has he been found?" Miko called out to the nearby disciple.

"We found no trace of him anywhere, master. I’m afraid..." The disciple clasped his fist, but he averted his gaze to the side.

"Keep looking for him. His luck won’t allow him to die easily." Miko heaved a subtle sigh.

Sacred Sakura’s disciples weren’t the only ones involved in this mess. It was just that, Bai Yuchen was rather unlucky to be dragged into the mess when he had just descended the mountain to accompany the newly joined disciple to gain experience in the outside world.

Since she came with an overwhelming force, escorted by several Demi-Gods and Deities as the main fighting force, the well-hidden Mugong Blood Sect was destroyed in no time.

However, she knew the entire significance was not as easy as it seemed. It might be more treacherous than a trap laid by the villain.

The remnants of battle left by the fallen warriors of the other sects and the demonic cultivators did not look like a normal battle. The fatal, deadly injuries of the pious warriors were like a one-sided massacre carried out by powerful, savage demons.

"What happened on this land..." Miko crouched down and inspected the spiritual energy remnant on the ground.

She could faintly feel Bai Yuchen unleashed his decisive move here, and the bloodstains on the ground were still pretty fresh. It hadn’t been long since he was there. He held back all the enemies and gave Nuwa time to escape to the higher ground so Nuwa could leave the signal interference area to ask for help from the sect.

Sadly, Nuwa got caught after sending that emergency message, or maybe, the enemies deliberately let Nuwa ask for help so the villain could grab the bigger fish.

"Your Grace, I can track him down if we get his blood sample." Feng Xue volunteered.

"Perfect. Try to track the owner of this blood, Xue. It’s his blood." Miko returned to her feet, making room for Feng Xue, the Blood Empress.

Feng Xue stepped forward and moved her finger, pointing at the blood on the ground. She raised her finger to lift the drop of blood and cast a spell on it. "The blood of the respectable warrior, show me the way to your original owner."

The drop of blood fluctuated slightly and then floated away.

"This droplet will guide us." Feng Xue reported.

"Good. Find him as soon as possible." Miko ordered the nearby squad to go with Feng Xue’s team.

"Do you want to interrogate that demoness?" Meiying glanced at the top of the hill.

"She’s already experienced death twice in a row. Her fortified defense is crumbling. She should be more honest now, regardless of who backed her up." Miko closed her eyes as she flew up to the top of the hill. Meiying and Alicia quickly followed her.

Rafaela and Remiel had just finished bandaging Nuwa’s body. Although Nuwa suffered no injuries because their master had cast a greater healing, the trauma remained. Nuwa shouldn’t move for the time being, and the full-body bandages were meant to restrain Nuwa’s movements.

"She’s still unconscious." Rafaela reported.

"Senior brother..." Nuwa mumbled softly.

"We found only Bai Yuchen and Nuwa involved in this incident. Regardless, he should give us a proper explanation. He was not ordered to bring our new disciple to this kind of hazardous place." Remiel clenched her fist.

"He is clearly badly injured and is still missing in action. Please do not badmouth people behind their backs." Miko checked Nuwa’s condition, and everything was stable.

"Greetings, master. I did not badmouth him. Please forgive me for the offense." Remiel yelped in shock and immediately gave a greeting with justification.

"It’s alright. He is still alive, but yes, he does owe us an explanation. He will not die that easily, not since he possessed a divine spear." Miko was not too worried about Bai Yuchen, but her heart felt restless about something unknown.

Something big and evil was bound to occur soon, and she did not like this feeling.

"Ki- just kill me already..." The nearby demoness crawled on the ground despite the sacred chain bound that restrained her and the holy fire that burned her alive.

She got killed twice already, and she also got revived twice to taste the longer excruciating pain. At that moment, she tried to kill herself, but it was useless because she would be revived after that unless the Sacred Sakura Saintess granted her mercy. She began to wonder about her life and worth, but when she remembered, her life was like a joke for the pawn for others to exploit...

"You harmed my new disciple severely, so that’s what you deserve. Do you want to live and repent, or die in everlasting agony?" Miko stood before the dying demoness, squinting her gaze. She would always give the others a chance if they could still be saved, but only under the condition that they could redeem their sins.

"Is there... any choice for me? I’m just a disposable pawn..." The demoness smirked in contempt, full of hatred for everyone, including the world.

"Pitiful child, but a Grandmaster-level demoness is too flashy for a mere pawn. You should know a thing or two." Miko turned around and moved her finger sideways to cast a demon-summoning magic circle. "Envy, Aubryn, answer my summons."

"!!!" Meiying and Alicia gasped in shock. They never ever imagined that Miko, the Sacred Sakura Saintess would summon a demon!

"Your Envy is here to answer your call, milady. Uh-huh?" Envy emerged out of the demon-summoning magic circle with the greatest respect, but when she looked at her contract holder, she was stunned to find it was a young shrine priestess, the younger version of her master. "Is that you, my God?"

"The God you serve is my mama. Please extract information from her. Keep her alive and put her under watch." Miko pointed at the flabbergasted demoness.

"You... how you, it’s a great demon..." The demoness was at a loss for words. She had no idea how and why, but the sacred lady of the holy sect summoned a great demon, and it was so shocking!

"With pleasure. This is my specialty." Envy bowed respectfully as she did not need any reason to carry out the order. Since her master’s daughter could summon her, so it was still under her God’s will and permission.

She grabbed the dying demoness and cast a demonic healing technique to keep the prisoner alive. "I don’t know what you did to offend the divine daughter, but you are still lucky that she gave you a chance. This can become your extraordinary opportunity or your greatest misery."

"Who are you?"

"You don’t know me? It doesn’t matter because my domain is in the Hell Realm. All the great demons of Hell have become my subordinates. Whoever backs you up, be it big demons or prominent immortals, nobody can save you once ’she’ wants you dead."

"Wuwuwu..."

"Be obedient and be my demonic spawn."

"Aaa..."

Envy’s eyes glowed bright purple, casting a mind control on the terrified dying demoness. She scared the demoness terribly, but she stated the fact because nothing could save the one that her God wanted to destroy.

"Hum, hum... I see..." Envy listened to everything the demoness demoness said.

"..." Miko crossed her arms. Apparently, a great villain orchestrated a huge trap for an awakening ritual of an ancient demonic beast.

They targeted several major forces so they could obtain sacrifices to fulfill the ritual’s conditions, but the crux of the matter was unknown because the demoness knew nothing about the confidential information. However, one thing was for sure, hundreds of cultivators had been sacrificed and there were four great cultivators above 7th Rank captured in this trap scheme, serving as key catalysts to empower the awakening formation.

"You’ve heard everything she knows. So, do you want to kill her now?" Envy released the demoness to the ground.

"That’s probably because I’m being overly cautious. I’m giving her one chance to redeem herself. Put her under your wing and do something to her." Miko messaged her forehead as she glanced at Nuwa. If someone had to punish the demoness, she wanted Nuwa to do it, but that was for the future as Nuwa would need that determination boost.

"Uuh..." Envy scratched her head. That sounded troublesome, and she had no place for such a weakling in her rank.

"Are you unwilling? My mama is watching." Miko pointed her finger upward.

"W-what? Y-yes, with pleasure. If you like it, I’ll fix her for you." Envy gasped in shock. She rubbed her hand with a friendly smile as if ready to cross a sea of ​​fire and a mountain of needles to carry out that order.

"You’re dismissed." Miko sent Envy away.

"What is this? The master granted her authority for her daughter? Is this daughter going to take advantage of me? I must ask for an explanation from my contract holder..." Envy complained under her breath as she led the terrified demoness away.

"Miko..." Meiying called out, but she was hesitant about what she was about to say.

"Do you find that against your beliefs?" Miko closed her eyes as she tried to peer at the future possibilities.

"No, it’s not... I understand you have your reasons for your actions. I’m not very wise or experienced in this field, but it’s just that... are demons your enemies?" Meiying was hesitant, but she needed to know Miko’s stance.

As a sacred lady respected by countless, Miko held an important position in the world. Regardless, she still did not understand the Sacred Sakura Goddess and Miko’s true intention.

"One enemy is too many, and a thousand friends are too few. Even demons have the chance to repent. I always give a chance to those who could redeem themselves from their sins." Miko shook her head.

"One enemy is too many, and a thousand friends are too few. Even demons have the chance to repent..." Meiying repeated Miko’s words, feeling enlightened.

She recalled it, and she remembered that Sacred Sakura did not discriminate. There were even some good demons there.

"I see... that demoness can be saved to the right path." Alicia nodded in understanding. She had heard of the Great Demon Queen of Envy because that demoness was one of her master’s subordinates, serving other purposes in the Hell Realm.

She was wise enough to understand the true essence of such action, but she was also aware such a decision could only be carried out by the truly powerful, invincible one due to the consequences and risks involved.

"They trapped a lot of major forces here. Let’s see what they’ve got in store for us." Miko stared out into the distant sea, but her gaze landed on a particular cliff on the shore.
