Heavenly Demon and Earthly Demon?
The seven looked at each other, the atmosphere falling into a moment of silence.
It wasn't that they were cowardly, but rather they knew their own limits. The seven of them combined were probably no match for the two legendary top-tier demons.
Even with a suspected target, they were powerless to approach the two great demons.
"We can't deal with the Heavenly Demon and Earthly Demon. We might as well capture the weakest demon lord and see if we can get information from him," Ji Buwang suddenly said.
"Feasible."
"Agreed."
Upon hearing this, the six men's eyes lit up.
That's right, they were no match for the two great demons, but they could handle ordinary demon lords. For instance, Han Hong of Black City had died by their hands.
"I cannot appear myself at this time, so this matter can only be entrusted to you," Xu Yi looked at her companions.
"Don't worry, Sister Xu. Even without you, we're not pushovers," Bai Shan smiled confidently.
Xu Yi looked at his smile, feeling inexplicably uneasy, and couldn't help but remind him, "The demon race's methods are fierce and unpredictable. Caution is paramount."
"Got it, got it. Just relax,"
Bai Shan agreed casually, his brows filled with eagerness.
Xu Yi secretly shook her head, deciding to let Hong Jing and Bei Xinghan watch over him more closely, preventing him from acting recklessly.
Xu Yi and the other six split into two groups. She went into hiding, making it easier to provide support.
The six led by Ji Buwang set off for the nearest perilous city.
The demon lord of the perilous city was named Ye You. He ranked low among the eighteen demon lords, making him comparatively easier to deal with.
Ji Buwang and the others expected this mission to be uneventful.
However, they hadn't anticipated that to capture Xu Yi, several demon lords had not acted separately but had gathered together.
So, when they broke into the demon lord's mansion, intending to abduct Ye You, Ye You immediately summoned Shen Zhong and Yin Shan, who were nearby.
The six instantly fell into a disadvantageous position.
"You guys go first."
Ji Buwang knew the situation was dire. Moreover, having already confessed his true feelings to Xu Yi, he had no intention of concealing his strength any longer.
His cultivation was no longer suppressed; his aura surged at a frantic pace.
The terrifying pressure caused the expressions of the three demon lords to change drastically.
Xiong Zhuangzhuang and the others were still bewildered, but Bei Xinghan was the first to react, "Let's go first."
"But Lu Zaiye..."
"If we stay here, we'll only slow him down. Go!"
Bei Xinghan, like a meteor, was the first to rush out of the demon lord's mansion, clearing the path ahead.
The remaining few looked at Lu Zaiye, who stood blocking their way, gritted their teeth, and followed Bei Xinghan.
"Who exactly are you?"
Yin Shan looked at Ji Buwang, his eyes filled with apprehension.
This person gave him a dangerous feeling; his strength should not be inferior to that of the Succubus.
But when did such a dangerous figure appear in Zhuzhou?
Recalling the time he was ambushed in the Black City demon lord's mansion by that female demon, an unbelievable thought began to form.
Seeing that the person opposite him remained silent for a long time, Yin Shan angrily asked, "You are not of the demon race!"
"Not of the demon race?"
Shen Zhong and Ye You were startled, then understood the deeper meaning of Yin Shan's words.
Human! This is a human!
No wonder they found him unfamiliar; it turned out he was a spy sent by the human race.
The two were enraged. Shen Zhong sneered, "Your human race occupies such a vast territory, and now you dare to come to Zhuzhou to cause trouble. This time, you will leave your lives behind!"
Shen Zhong clapped his hands on his body forcefully.
Layers of fleshy waves began to churn, then stretched upwards at a visible speed.
The once mountain-like Shen Zhong quickly transformed into a well-built demon man, ten feet tall.
His facial features, when revealed, were not unattractive but rather quite handsome. Coupled with the demonic energy swirling around him, he possessed the aura of a demon king descending to the mortal realm.
He looked down at Ji Buwang below and stepped forward to crush him.
On the other side.
Yin Shan did not hesitate to pull out his Black Feather Fan and throw it outwards.
The Black Feather Fan soared into the air, spinning rapidly, emitting a chilling wind that seemed capable of stripping flesh and blood.
Ye You's trident suddenly appeared in his hand.
Holding the trident, he let out a roar and thrust it towards Ji Buwang.
A sharp whistling sound echoed throughout the demon lord's mansion.
The three demon lords attacked simultaneously. Demonic energy surged violently, and even the demonic energy hovering above the demon lord's mansion showed signs of dissipating.
Ji Buwang's eyes flashed with cold light. He did not intend to take out any artifacts. Instead, he clasped his palms together, gathering spiritual energy in his palms. Just as the three demon lords were about to close in, he pushed his palms outwards forcefully.
Rumble!
A deafening roar accompanied by surging shockwaves swept outwards. The demons near the demon lord's mansion were instantly pulverized by this blast, while those further away suffered ringing ears and internal injuries, falling into a coma.
The entire perilous city became a ghost city in an extremely short period.
All the buildings in the demon lord's mansion had already collapsed under the residual power of the battle.
Dust filled the air, making it impossible to see one's hand in front of one's face.
However, within a few breaths, fierce fighting sounds could be heard again.
The hazy dust was once again swept away by the shockwaves, revealing the scene of Ji Buwang using his finger as a sword, stabbing towards Ye You.
Ye You's face was as pale as a ghost, with dark red bloodstains beneath his eyes and at the corners of his mouth.
Seeing Ji Buwang attack again, his pupils constricted, and he channeled demonic energy into his trident.
The trident blazed with demonic light, whistling as it cleaved towards Ji Buwang.
"Die!"
Ye You roared ferociously.
Ji Buwang's expression was calm. With a thought, he vanished from Ye You's sight.
Ye You's divine sense spread out, but he found he couldn't capture Ji Buwang's whereabouts at all.
"Ah!"
A sharp, piercing scream rang out from behind Ye You.
Ye You turned to look back and saw a thick arm sweep past overhead.
He squinted to see that it was Shen Zhong's right arm that had been severed, and he was now clutching the wound and groaning.
"Ye You!"
Yin Shan's voice jolted Ye You back to his senses.
The next moment, a dazzling white light appeared to his right.
He roared in anger, raised his trident, and thrust it towards the white light.
Bang!
A sound like colliding metal and stone suddenly rang out.
A destructive force surged into Ye You's arm through the trident.
Crack.
The almost imperceptible sound of bones cracking under the impact was incredibly clear to Ye You.
He felt a surge of bitterness within him.
What was the origin of this person to be so ferocious? He surmised that even on the Nine Provinces Continent, he would not be someone easy to deal with.
He switched his grip on the trident, his eyes fierce, and shouted, "You think you can hold us back and let those people escape? To tell you the truth, other demon lords have already gone to intercept them. You're all dead!"
As he spoke these words, he was secretly hedging his bets.
Although he appeared to be threatening with words, he was actually revealing crucial information.
The human's companion was also in peril at this moment. If he insisted on killing him, his companion's life would also be forfeit.
Therefore, he was gambling that this human would abandon the idea of killing him and rush to save his companion.
