Chapter 11: Initial Realm. Demon Subjugation Upright Sun Blade
"I came here today to see the wife you found for us, but I caught a whiff of those earth dogs, so I decided to take a look."
"Rest assured, you're efficient, and we're quite satisfied with you."
The old ape glanced at Shen Yi and then brought its head close to Song Changfeng's face, "But you're too young, and you still have to take orders from such incompetent people. It's too inefficient. Today, I'll get rid of him for you and help Younger Brother Shen climb higher."
"I didn't kill the dog demon..." Song Changfeng's eyes widened, his eyeballs almost popping out of their sockets, and he screamed in a shrill voice, "I'll resign... Don't kill me... Shen Yi! I've never provoked you! Why are you doing this!"
Seeing his appearance, the three-headed ape demons laughed out loud.
The laughter was sharp and piercing, stirring up Shen Yi's irritation. His voice carried a hint of coldness, "Let him go."
As soon as he spoke, the old ape's face changed abruptly.
Although it called Shen Yi 'Younger Brother Shen', it was a mocking tone. In their eyes, Shen Yi was merely an obedient and well-behaved lackey.
Otherwise, they wouldn't have deliberately prepared such an intimidating display for him.
When did it become a lackey's turn to issue orders here?
The old ape grinned, revealing its pale yellow fangs, suppressing its anger and looking on with interest, "If I let him go, what's in it for me?"
Although it had no intention of truly releasing Song Changfeng, it was still curious about Shen Yi's two-faced nature, wondering what he was up to.
Upon hearing this, Shen Yi lowered his gaze, staring at the old ape. After a moment's thought, he relaxed his furrowed brows, as if offering a condition that the ape couldn't refuse, "Let him go, and you can die more comfortably."
The room fell silent at his words.
A murderous intent gradually rose in the old ape's eyes, "Interesting, what if I don't let him go?"
Shen Yi lifted his head and spoke sincerely, "I'll skin you alive."
Before the ape demons could react, Song Changfeng was terrified, his eyes nearly bursting out of their sockets, and he almost bit his teeth to pieces.
He had realized that Shen was never going to let him leave alive! Skinned alive? Who was skinning whom?
The ape demons from East Mountain were not like the Yellow Pelt Clan in the western suburbs. The Yellow Pelt Clan had a large number of dog demons of varying strengths, but the ape demons had only five from the very beginning.
Apart from the ancient great demon that hadn't shown itself in years, the four brothers were all elite warriors. With just this number, they could rival the Yellow Pelt Clan.
And now, three of the four brothers had arrived! Indeed, upon hearing Shen Yi's words, the scholar-robed old ape demon's gaze turned completely cold.
It didn't mock or roar to intimidate its enemy.
The old ape gradually increased the force in its grip, sharp claws piercing Song Changfeng's forehead, digging into his skull with a creaking sound, as if the next moment, his head would explode like an overripe watermelon.
It looked indifferently at Shen Yi beside it, hoping this lesson would teach him how to speak properly.
Just then, a hint of confusion appeared in the old ape's eyes, followed by fury! Shen Yi didn't even glance at its handiwork but turned and walked towards the door, stopping in front of the two bewildered ape demons.
He observed for a moment and chose the one who had broken through the door to kill earlier.
Then, Shen Yi raised his hand and, in an instant when the ape demon had no time to react, he viciously pressed down on the back of its head!
With the vast power of his strike, the ape demon crashed to the ground, its face smashing into the shattered floor tiles.
The other ape demon finally snapped out of its daze, opening its mouth to let out a piercing shriek. Even in such a desperate situation, it maintained its composure.
The youth's arms, longer than that of an ordinary person, swung in a perfect arc through the air, the black-furred clawed fist poised to strike with the weight of a thousand pounds, directly aiming for the young man's spine!
This was no longer an instinctual strike but a highly skilled martial arts move.
Its left arm was poised, ready to deliver a fatal blow to the spine.
"..."
Shen Yi leaned forward, pressing down on the head of an ape demon, and just as the claw was about to smash down, he casually blocked it with his other hand.
The black-furred claw, capable of easily shattering a spine, was effortlessly batted away, and the immense force crumbled in an instant."
Shen Yi's long fingers then clamped onto its throat, and with a slight exertion, he crushed its cervical vertebrae.
From start to finish, he didn't even bother to glance back.
His indifferent gaze focused on the palm of his hand, where the ape's head gradually deformed. With each struggle, he increased the pressure.
"Awooo!"
The scholar-robed old ape paused, perplexed by the familiar person's every move, which exceeded its understanding.
But the death of a brother had clearly shattered its rationality.
Instinctively, it wanted to use Song Changfeng, whom it held, to order Shen Yi to stop, but before it could speak, it stared at Shen Yi's calm face and suddenly realized.
The person it held was its brother, and the one in Shen Yi's hand... had nothing to do with him.
Enraged, it kicked Song Changfeng away and leaped over the table, shouting, "Stop!"
A scream and the sound of something shattering filled the air.
Shen Yi retracted his palm, shaking off the red and white sticky substance from his fingertips.
He glanced sideways at the approaching figure in the air, his palm resting on the hilt of his sword, ready to draw it. But his movement paused, and this time, the act of drawing the sword was much slower than before.
His body surged with energy, and even through his skin, he could feel the scorching heat within.
The sword slowly emerged from its sheath, and a layer of pale red mist clung to the silver gleam, flowing like blood.
Suddenly, the sword slashed through the air!
The scholar-robed ape demon's eyes widened as it watched the youth, now only three feet away, seemingly within reach to tear apart his face. But its sharp claws trembled, unable to move.
It looked down in confusion.
The robe was torn, the break remarkably clean, and from the waist down, two sturdy, powerful legs thudded to the ground, yet it was still leaping in the air.
"Clang."
Shen Yi sheathed his sword and stepped over the two severed ape demons.
