Chapter 181: The Blue-Faced Lion Demon Brothers
Chapter 181: The Blue-Faced Lion Demon Brothers
......
After a moment, Shen Yi's eyebrows furrowed slightly.
He seemed to have figured out why such a situation had occurred.
For beings formed from the essence of the world like this, the process of awakening intelligence is extremely slow... But the amount of time he had spent was too much, and it had already developed consciousness while still in the Dao Seed stage.
Shen Yi had actually performed consciousness eradication many times through the panel.
However, he had relied on the death energy gained from cultivating the Death-Life Zen Body, and the consciousness he had erased belonged to demons and evil beings.
The situation was a little different now.
Since this Dao Seed was within his inner Dan (Golden Core), he couldn't very well use death energy to destroy his own Golden Core.
"Fortunately, there's the Sun Melting Treasure Furnace."
Shen Yi narrowed his eyes, mobilizing the suppressing power to envelop the seed tightly.
As long as he could control it, it would be fine. Anyway, it couldn't resist, and he could wear it down over time.
The thousands of years spent studying the Wind and Thunder Sun Melting Manual had been well worth it.
Of course, this was all he could do, and the rest was up to the panel to handle.
With that in mind, Shen Yi stood up again and said calmly, "Rest assured, I'll earn enough demon life force for you."
He looked ahead.
Two auras drilled out of the silver bells, throbbing more and more violently.
The next moment, the black-robed youth once again turned into a gentle breeze, gliding across the sky.
...
At Fuyao Mountain, by the Bishui Brook.
The stream was shallow, revealing smooth pebbles. A majestic blue-faced lion lay coiled in the water, and on its back sat a towering figure, clad in silvery scales and with a lion's head despite its human form.
"Big brother, can you please stop riding me?" The giant lion seemed irritable, shaking its tail forcefully.
"I'd love to ride Bai Yuniang, but she hasn't been back for days," the lion-headed demon said playfully, and even the figure beneath him let out a low, muffled laugh.
The two brothers gazed nostalgically in the direction of Qingzhou.
"I don't understand why the Demon King wants us to provoke You Longtao. He's stationed in Tingyang County, wielding the Skyfall Sunset Bow, and he's a cultivator who has condensed his Yin spirit. He may seem decrepit, but he's actually quite cunning."
The giant lion propped up its body, a hint of displeasure in its voice. "Isn't it a bit naive to think we can lure him out with just a golden bell?"
"It's better if he doesn't come out, then I can keep riding Niangniang."
The lion-headed demon burst out laughing, licking his lips. "It's her own doing if she wants to make a move and regain the Demon King's attention. It's none of our business."
"I heard Bai Lu is dead," the giant lion said as it walked onto the shore.
"Always thinking he's so smart. Serves him right for not submitting to us and secretly colluding with the Little Demon King behind our backs." The lion demon seemed indifferent to this news.
Although they served under the same Demon King, their relationship was far from amicable. In fact, if not for the Demon King's face, he would have slaughtered the other demon several hundred years ago at a banquet.
"That's not what I meant."
The giant lion shook its head. "If someone in Qingzhou could kill Bai Lu, then they could kill more demon lords. My concern is that if we suffer heavy losses, it will free up the hands of the people from the Demon Subduing Department, and having them breathing down our necks all the time isn't a pleasant feeling."
"Who cares about that?" The lion demon sneered. "The Demon King won't let that stupid deer die in vain. Qingzhou will have to pay with an equal life. As far as I know, the old flood dragon in Yangchun River is about to break through, and the Demon King has already sent him a precious elixir to aid his final push."
It's time to let Qingzhou catch a whiff of blood.
"Doesn't that push us down the rankings again?" The giant lion grumbled. Among the Demon King's seventeen Yaojun, their combined strength should place them in the top five. Yet, that despicable group insisted on ranking the Lion Demon Brothers separately, an obvious scheme to pull them down!
"I'm not like Bai Lu, caring about such things. I just want to know when Niangniang will return."
The Lion Demon leaped off his brother, feeling agitated and restless.
Just then, a graceful figure with disheveled clothing appeared along the creek. She seemed to have suffered a severe injury, her luxurious dress torn in multiple places, revealing glimpses of her snow-white skin. Her pretty face held a grievous expression as she bit her plump lips.
The Lion Demon's eyes went wide at the sight. "Niangniang, what happened to you? Come, let me comfort you properly!"
He took a quick step forward and pulled the beauty into his embrace, his large beastly palm resting on her in a most indecent manner.
"..."
The giant lion watched with a puzzled expression, feeling a strange surprise in his heart.
It wasn't because of his brother's lustful appearance, but because, for the first time, his partner hadn't called out to him.
Could it be that he had been holding back for too many days?
In situations like this, he usually served as a fur rug, otherwise, where would the two of them sleep?
And with White Jade Niangniang in such an injured state, why wasn't his brother being more cautious? He should at least ask what had happened before doing anything else.
The giant lion looked around and suddenly noticed a faint white mist.
It blended seamlessly with the creek, almost as if it belonged there.
But the giant lion's heart sank. He roared, "Big brother, beware! White Lu isn't dead! He must have betrayed the Little Demon King and is here to harm us brothers!"
In the instant his words left his mouth—
A dragon's roar and a tiger's howl exploded in their ears. The giant lion turned in shock to see a huge sword shadow bearing down on him, accompanied by two ferocious beasts!
Under that fierce true intent—
His massive body was instantly torn open, revealing a horrifying gash, before being blasted away by the dragon and tiger illusions!
At the same time, Shen Yi, suspended in the air, held the Sky-Piercing Sun-Breaking Divine Bow, the bowstring drawn to its limit like a full moon. His eyes sparkled, resembling a celestial general surveying the world!
Empowered by the Sixth Heaven of the Immortal-Demon Transformation, blindingly white arrow after arrow pierced through the sky.
Boom! Boom!
Vast white light enveloped the giant lion, tearing apart its sturdy demonic body!
Firing over a dozen arrows in succession, not a single one missed, yet the lion was only scraped of its flesh, revealing white bones, and it still had breath left in it.
Shen Yi frowned slightly, unsatisfied with the result.
But ever since breaking through to the Embrace Elixir stage, his original Tortoise Breath Technique could no longer completely conceal his aura. Getting any closer would risk discovery.
He could only resort to using the Two Extremes Dragon and Tiger True Intent and the Sky-Piercing Sun-Breaking Divine Bow.
At the same time—
The humanoid lion demon held White Jade Niangniang in his arms, his eyes filled with a struggling expression.
He was clearly trying to break free from the illusion.
In an instant, he bared his fangs and let out a mountain-shaking roar, his terrifying eyes gaining a hint of clarity.
"..."
Shen Yi paid him no heed as his figure vanished from the spot.
According to General You's description, these two demon brothers, when working together, were no weaker than him.
Most likely, they had some sort of complementary technique.
If he couldn't take out one of them in advance, the difficulty of defeating them both might double.
