Chapter 197: Fierce Battle with the Little Demon King
Chapter 197: Fierce Battle with the Little Demon King
In the instant the pauldron flew towards him, Shen Yi grabbed it with one hand and viciously slammed his right fist into the Little Demon King's forehead.
Crack!
Under the force of his punch, the skull didn't even last a single breath before shattering.
At that moment, another arm guard shot forward.
Shen Yi casually smashed it away with the pauldron in his hand, sending it flying. Then, he dug his right palm into the wound on the Little Demon King's forehead and, with a forceful grip of his fingers, tore off another large chunk of bone.
"Ahh!"
The Little Demon King let out a miserable howl.
As the two broad palms reached for its head, Shen Yi, standing on its brow, swung his right leg back and, enhanced by the green light, easily tore apart the bull demon's palms.
He leaned forward and threw another heavy punch.
With each strike, he would casually snap off a piece of skull.
Shen Yi's body had returned to its original state, his spine as sturdy as a dragon's. With each punch, golden beastly patterns emerged on his skin.
The Little Demon King displayed its foundation.
Shen Yi, too, was showcasing his own depth, and if all went as expected, his opponent would soon become a part of it.
Finally, he decided the opening was large enough.
He stood up, casually performing a sword seal with his hand.
A crimson longsword, several zhang long, gradually condensed in the air above.
Shen Yi turned with indifference, gazing at the surrounding armor pieces rushing to protect the bull demon. With a punch for each, he blasted them all away!
"..."
Witnessing the youth's fierce demeanor, the two Golden Bell Demon Catchers unconsciously swallowed their saliva.
The usually reserved and silent Shen Yi seemed like a completely different person when facing demon beasts.
Even the powerful Little Demon King couldn't put up any resistance against him.
"This time..."
As Shen Yi stepped out of the golden light, Jiang Qiuluan slowly released her palms, as if he never needed anyone else's concern.
She gazed into the distance and gently asked, "Can I join you this time?"
Ah Qian turned her head instinctively.
Even without her saying it, the young girl had guessed her thoughts.
After flipping the table and leaving the matter to the Martial Temple and the Immortal Sect, Qingzhou would simply refuse to get involved any further.
But there was one person they couldn't absolve of responsibility—the one who had struck down the Little Demon King.
The Dark Ice Jade Dragon flew again, rushing towards the Little Demon King's forehead! Shen Yi, standing on the bull demon's face, had just knocked away the armor pieces when he punched and sent the Dark Ice Jade Dragon flying.
"..."
Jiang Qiuluan looked on helplessly.
The crimson longsword instantly descended, injecting vicious demon power into the Little Demon King's skull. Dragon and tiger illusions fiercely tore at its insides until everything within was turned into a pulp.
The towering bull demon widened its eyes, the light in them gradually fading away.
The hand holding the knife handle powerlessly drooped to the ground.
【Kill the Demon Ox in the Nascent Soul Realm, total lifespan of 10,700 years, remaining lifespan of 9,800 years, absorption completed】
After the panel prompt disappeared.
The floating bronze armor pieces fell one after another, each piece shrinking back to the size of a palm and lying quietly on the ground.
Shen Yi picked them all up, circled around the bull demon once more, and found a wisp of red mist at its waist.
Then, he dug out its elixir core, conveniently storing the qi and blood into the Silver Bell.
"This..."
Ah Qian opened her mouth, intending to remind him.
After slaying such a well-connected demon, if they didn't cover their tracks, would they still dare to claim the reward from the court with the demon's essence blood...?
Then she saw Shen Yi storing the entire bull demon's corpse and the ring-headed broadsword into his pocket treasure.
"Let's get out of here."
Shen Yi glanced at the two still-dazed Golden Bell Demon Catchers. What were they doing, standing there dumbfounded? Weren't they going to run? Were they waiting for the Howling Moon Demon King to show up?
As he spoke, he pulled Jiang Qiuluan's arm, and they vanished like a gentle breeze.
Ah Qian and Wu Feng didn't have time to be shocked. They quickly packed up the golden silk net and sprinted towards Qingzhou.
...
Outside Qingzhou, in a spacious cave.
At this moment, he gently placed his palms on the dog demon's spine, and strands of substantial-looking blood energy flowed back and forth between the two.
"..."
The chaotic energy in the dog demon's body gradually stabilized, and the sinister ice in its wounds had been dispelled, slowly healing.
It never thought that the Howling Moon, this old demon king, would actually want to heal its injuries.
To be honest, after leaving the waterfall that day, the dog demon didn't even think it would make it out of the mountain range alive.
It looked forward silently.
The twelve demon lords glared at it with malicious intent, as if they wanted to devour its flesh and bones.
"Hmph!"
The Howling Moon Demon King opened his eyes, baring his teeth slightly, and coldly swept his gaze over the demon lords, "Quiet down for this king."
At his indifferent words, the demon lords reluctantly withdrew their gazes.
The wariness in the dog demon's eyes lessened slightly.
It knew that the hatred these demons held for it stemmed from the loss of five of the Howling Moon's seventeen demon lords, including the White Jade Rabbit.
Most likely, this was due to their efforts to protect the Little Demon King, resulting in their demise in Qingzhou.
Such a significant loss would be difficult for anyone to bear.
This old wolf indeed had a bit of compassion. Despite his extreme anger, he had not treated it excessively harshly.
"This king hopes this is the last time."
Fatigue grew more pronounced in the Howling Moon Demon King's eyes, and it was clear that healing the dog demon's injuries had taken a toll on his accumulated energy.
"There won't be a need for a next time."
The dog demon slowly got up, its attitude still extremely cold, but with a hint of resistance gone, "My Demon King is exceptionally talented, and his breakthrough is merely a matter of course."
"You have my thanks."
The Howling Moon Demon King nodded slightly, looking at the empty seat, and a hint of sadness appeared in his cloudy eyes, his voice hoarse as if he had aged greatly.
"..."
The dog demon felt a twinge of guilt, but quickly suppressed it.
Being associated with the Little Demon King was a great advantage for this old wolf.
It picked up its spear and returned to its former arrogant demeanor, "Rest assured, my Demon King always keeps his word... Farewell."
"Stay a few more days."
The Howling Moon Demon King glanced at it, "You and I are of the same clan, there's no need to be so formal. Your injuries are not fully healed, and you won't be able to break through to the next realm in this lifetime."
A wolf, claiming to be of the same clan as a dog.
The dog demon gripped the spear tightly, standing there in hesitation.
Just then.
Its heart suddenly filled with dread as if it had sensed something terrible, "Demon King!"
The Howling Moon Demon King's face, which had been filled with fatigue, suddenly turned fierce, and he leaped to his feet, roaring, "What has happened?"
Without waiting for a reply, he grabbed the dog demon and rushed out of the cave, speeding towards the waterfall.
Perhaps due to the excessive expenditure of his energy.
The Howling Moon Demon King's steps were unsteady, and his speed was far inferior to before.
Soon they arrived at the familiar valley.
Looking at the chaotic scene before them.
The dog demon's expression turned numb, and it felt as if all the strength had drained from its body.
The Howling Moon Demon King's face twisted with rage, his body trembling, and he let out a sharp howl, "Qingzhou! Qingzhou!"
"How did you find this place, allowing the people from the Demon Subduing Sect to track you here?! Answer this king! Where is the Little Demon King?!"
The Howling Moon Demon King grabbed the dog demon, his eyes red and saliva dripping from his mouth.
"I... I..."
The dog demon was lost and dazed, its eyes vacant as it felt the empty spiritual connection within, and it couldn't even hold its spear steady, "He's dead... the Little Demon King is dead..."
