Six Demons
Si Ming swayed, and immediately felt his internal True Qi become sluggish and difficult to activate. At this moment, a leopard-like Demon Beast with sharp teeth pounced from behind him, opening its blood-red maw to bite his head.
"My hair has only just started growing! Why are you all always picking on my hair?!"
Si Ming slapped the Demon Beast's head out with his backhand, sending it crashing into its chest cavity. The head bounced back at ten times the speed it had come from, crushing a series of Demon Beast along its path.
Si Ming never relied on his Internal Cultivation; his powerful physique was his true strength. The poison that targeted Internal Cultivation, such as the Bone-Softening Gentle Breeze, was completely ineffective against him. He immediately turned around, swung his arms, and unleashed the "Ora Ora" Bullet Fist, single-handedly blocking the demon horde, like a boulder cutting off a rushing stream.
Si Ming even managed to relay a message: "Principal, I received a call from the Mohist Knight Guard. A large number of Demon Beast are concentrated near our school, while there are very few elsewhere. The Mohist Knight Guard have already established a defensive line around the campus. You should quickly gather the students and teachers and try to break through!"
The principal thought for a moment and realized that this was the only option he could take. However, instead of leaving as Si Ming had suggested, he said, "As an educator, there's no reason for me to abandon my students and leave. You should step aside; I'll handle things here."
Si Ming hurriedly said in an impatient tone, "Principal, you should leave now. These lackeys can't hurt me at all. Even if I stand here and don't move, they can't do anything to me. If I wasn't worried about ruining my hairstyle, I would really like to demonstrate this to you."
The principal was still hesitant, unsure whether to believe it or not.
Si Ming changed to a disdainful tone. "Principal, why are you still here? I'm in a hurry to unleash my ultimate move, and I'm afraid you'll get hurt if you're here. If you don't believe me, step back twenty meters first."
The principal was skeptical, but casually killed a few of the Demon Beast that had slipped through, and slowly retreated.
At this moment, Si Ming shook his arms, surging his surging essence and energy, while absorbing solar energy to replace the inert True Qi. The chaotic radiation energy gathered on his hands, and a pale blue halo appeared on his body.
Blue Moon Light Burst!
The moment their fists collided, a blue, bow-shaped shockwave emanated, silently taking the life of the Demon Beast, and a series of sounds of corpses falling to the ground filled the air.
In a flash, the school gate was cleared out. The Demon Beast behind, seeing this bizarre situation, couldn't help but feel fear, stopping in their tracks and hesitating to move forward.
Upon seeing this, the principal had no more reservations and decisively turned and left.
Chapter 147 Six Demons
The Star-Picking Building, the tallest building in Tange City, has six humanoid figures standing on its roof. Each of them possesses a part of Anomalies form and exudes a strong demonic Yao Qi.
Clearly, these six are demons, and they are Earth Rank Demon Race, second only to Divine Rank, possessing the ability to transform.
A middle-aged man with a Golden Horn on his head and scales covering his arms came to the edge of the roof. Looking at the city engulfed in chaos, he sighed, "I never thought the plan would actually succeed. When I received the order, I thought the higher-ups had gone mad and were going to throw us out as cannon fodder."
"It's not us who's gone mad, it's the humans. They're actually weakening the seal on their own. Are they tired of living in peace?" The one who spoke was a young man with a thick, scaly tail.
A short man with animal ears and a black mark in the center of his face chuckled, "There's nothing strange about that. Humans are naturally prone to infighting. Many of history's greatest heroes died at the hands of their own people. Perhaps our partners are just using us to kill their enemies."
Because of his appearance, his smile was particularly lewd, even though he didn't intend to give that impression.
The only one among them with the fewest unusual features, a female demon almost identical to a human woman except for a pair of rabbit ears on her head, said with concern, "I don't think this operation will go as smoothly as we imagined. Such a good opportunity, yet the other three dukes' forces aren't participating, only sending us out. I'm afraid we're going to be used as pawns. Alas, with the Duke Azure Dragon dead and the Heart Moon Fox missing, we've become a group of abandoned pawns without protection. One order and we can be sent to our deaths..."
"Enough!"
Another female Demon Race in the crowd impatiently shouted to stop them. Her skin had black stripes, and she had a furry tiger tail behind her.
"If you're scared, go home and tremble. Don't disrupt morale here! Whether it's a conspiracy or a trap, the Demon King has issued a decree, and he will carry it out. Whoever makes the greatest contribution in this battle will be the new Azure Duke Azure Dragon. The Demon King's Nine Ding; he won't deceive us on such matters. What we need to do now is very simple: slaughter to our hearts' content, take advantage of the chaos to kill human powerhouses, and see who laughs last."
In the end, the tiger-tailed banshee looked at the Golden Horn man and the lizard-tailed youth with a provocative gaze, while the last remaining man, a thin, long-limbed, yellow-faced man covered in black spots, stood silently behind her, indicating his stance.
The six demons present were Jiao Wood Jiao, Kang Gold Dragon, Di Earth Raccoon Dog, Room Sun Rabbit, Tail Fire Tiger, and Winnowing Basket Water Leopard, all under the command of Duke Azure Dragon. Duke Azure Dragon was the Black Winged Demon God who was killed by Si Ming with Nuclear Bomb Fist in Deep Blue Plateau. The female demon taken away by Xiao Xuan was Heart Moon Fox.
Humans have political parties, and the Demon Race is no exception. As the only two scaled Demon Race, Jiao Wood Jiao and Kang Gold Dragon are obviously on one side, while Tail Fire Tiger and Winnowing Basket Water Leopard are on another side. The remaining three Demon Race who are not good at fighting also stick together.
However, ever since Heart Moon Fox went missing, Di Earth Raccoon Dog has had other ideas. He intends to find a new ally and has shown goodwill to both the Long and Hu families, showing his intention to be a fence-sitter.
Kang Gold Dragon said jokingly, "Speaking of Human Race powerhouses, there's one right near the sea: Startling Rainbow Beyond the Heavens, a dignified Spirit Transformation expert. If you could kill him, you'd definitely be at the top of the merit list. It just depends on whether you have the guts to kill him."
He was deliberately trying to provoke them. If Tail Fire Tiger and Winnowing Basket Water Leopard really went to intercept and kill Startling Rainbow Beyond the Heavens, the position of Duke Azure Dragon would be firmly in his hands, because the merit of a dead demon is meaningless.
However, the tiger woman wasn't fooled and retorted with a cold laugh, "If I had the ability to kill Spirit Transformation expert, why would I bother trying to gain merit here? I could just knock you down and the position of Duke Azure Dragon would be mine. Put away your petty thoughts. Schemes have never been our Demon Race's forte. Trying to use tricks like Human Race will only make you look ridiculous."
Without saying a word, she immediately leaped into the air, ignoring gravity, and ran down the wall of the Star-Picking Building in a horizontal position, with Winnowing Basket Water Leopard following closely behind.
Rebuffed by the sarcastic remark, Kang Gold Dragon's face darkened, becoming extremely ugly. He wanted to retort, but the other party had already run away after uttering his verbal attack, leaving him with no way to retaliate. He snorted and turned to leap off the other side of the building.
He transformed into his true form in mid-air, becoming a one-horned golden dragon that roamed freely over the city. With a sweep of its massive tail, it destroyed a signal tower, causing the citizens to scream in terror and panic.
Jiao Wood Jiao grinned and transformed into his original form, becoming a dragon. His body coiled around the Star-Picking Building as he slid down, crushing windows on every floor. His enormous size terrified the ordinary people, making their legs go weak and preventing them from even having the thought of resisting.
Even without knowing their true strength, their appearance alone is enough to make people realize that these two monsters are different from those Demon Beasts who only know how to charge around recklessly; they are at a level that ordinary people simply cannot deal with.
"This is going to be interesting. We'll sit back and watch the show, and vote for whoever wins."
On the rooftop, Di Earth Raccoon Dog chuckled, shrank back, and turned into a puddle of mud, merging with the building's cement, just like the Lord of the Land in a TV drama, disappearing without a trace.
In the end, only Room Sun Rabbit remained on the rooftop. After confirming that her companions had all left, she dropped her timid and cowardly expression, and her silly demeanor disappeared.
"A bunch of muscle-bound idiots who have never even heard the story of 'Two Peaches Kill Three Warriors.' Whether you can succeed as the Duke Azure Dragon has absolutely nothing to do with how much merit you've made. As long as you advance to the Divine Rank, the Duke Azure Dragon Duke's crown will naturally fall on your head. Even if the East Sea Demon King is unwilling to bestow the title, seeking refuge with another Demon King wouldn't be a bad option. To insist on fighting humans on human territory is simply a case of lining up to hang yourself, having a death wish."
She patted her head, and the rabbit ears immediately disappeared.
Now, all that's left of her is a short tail hidden under her skirt. If no one lifts her skirt to peek, she looks no different from a human beauty on the surface.
The more perfect Demon Race's human form is, the closer it gets to the Divine Rank.
This means that, in terms of cultivation alone, Room Sun Rabbit is the strongest among the six demons. She usually keeps her ears closed to prevent her companions from underestimating her.
"After the death of the Duke Azure Dragon, the other three dukes coveted our power and intended to annex us. However, due to the established rules and the Demon King's intimidation, they had to restrain themselves somewhat. But to the Demon King, we are just pawns. As long as there are enough benefits, turning pawns into discarded ones is just a matter of a moment's thought... Sister Heart Moon said that the East Sea King does not really want to cooperate with humans, and this operation is likely to end badly."
Just as she was pondering, the rabbit girl suddenly heard Kang Gold Dragon's roar. Looking up, she saw the golden dragon soaring in mid-air with its head split open, blood flowing freely. It was writhing and thrashing about in agony, crashing into the surrounding buildings.
"You little brat, flying so arrogantly in the air, who else would we shoot if not you?"
