Beat the Mountain to Frighten the Tiger, Slay the Dream-Eating Devil
After using the Clear Mind Card.
Chen Ning's mind was completely clear.
The inexplicable weariness disappeared, but Chen Ning did not let his guard down.
The system notification just came through.
This illustrates a key piece of information.
A high-ranking Devil Race attacked him.
And at this moment, they were within the territory of Xiao Mei's Law Enforcement Hall.
Could it be that... Xiao Mei is already impatient to make her move?
Very likely!
Chen Ning remained outwardly calm, but inwardly he was constantly making predictions.
If Xiao Mei really wanted to take action, why bother arranging for other Devil Race to do it?
She herself was a Martial Venerable master.
It's not difficult to conquer yourself.
Xiao Mei, however, did not make a move, nor did she reveal her identity.
Only the high-ranking Devil Race hidden in the shadows launched the sneak attack.
Does that mean... she doesn't want to be exposed yet?
Was he just testing the waters?
That would be fine.
It's not that there's no solution at all.
As long as we can eliminate that high-ranking Devil Race lurking in the shadows, everything will be fine.
It not only completed the system's immediate tasks.
It can also serve as a warning to others.
He warned Xiao Mei not to do anything reckless.
He is not someone who can be tested casually.
"Hall Master Xiao, it seems your boudoir has been without sunlight for too long, and evil spirits have already taken root."
Chen Ning spoke with a smile.
Then.
His gaze was stern.
"Then I will clean it for you."
The words were spoken in a single breath.
Xiao Mei's heartstrings were touched.
Has the sect leader already seen through her predicament?
Furthermore, they even need to deal with the Dream-Eating Devil troublesome thing for her.
The Dream-Eating Devil, a demon prince of the Devil Race, is unpredictable and mysterious.
He has once again reached the Half-Step Martial Venerable realm.
How can the sect leader possibly handle this?
Xiao Mei struggled internally, but she couldn't make a move, lest she kill the Dream-Eating Devil.
The Demon Emperor must have sensed something.
By then.
How could she possibly escape the Demon Emperor's wrath?
When they parted that day, the sect leader was only at the Middle Stage of the Earth Martial Realm.
The difference in cultivation level is too great; the sect leader has absolutely no chance of defeating the Dream-Eating Devil.
Xiao Mei gritted her teeth, her gaze finally hardening.
She couldn't just stand by and watch her sect leader die.
But then...
A sudden feeling of weakness washed over her.
My mind started to feel foggy.
Oh no!
Xiao Mei collapsed weakly onto the bed, her whole body limp.
She only realized it now.
The Dream-Eating Devil had silently hypnotized her just now.
Even though she was at the Venerable Martial Realm, she could only barely resist falling asleep.
But at this point, he was completely unable to help the sect leader.
Seeing Xiao Mei's outburst.
The Dream-Eating Devil revealed a chilling smile.
But seeing that Chen Ning still appeared completely conscious, he couldn't help but feel a sense of unease.
How is that possible?!
How could it not work!
How was he able to resist the Deep Sleep Devil Incantation?
However, there's no time for him to think about it now.
Chen Ning's gaze was already fixed on him.
He could only transform into human form again.
"Hehehe... You actually managed to withstand my Deep Sleep Devil Incantation, you've got some skill."
The Dream-Eating Devil's rat-like eyes suddenly flashed with a beam of black light.
Chen Ning was surrounded by people.
The unrestrained flow of True Essence Power neutralized the Dream-Eating Devil's attack.
"Such domineering True Essence Power! It seems you possess many secrets. This demon prince will finish this quickly."
The Dream-Eating Devil finished speaking.
They will no longer be retained.
I am currently at the Dragon-Seeking Sect.
If this drags on any longer...
By the time the experts from the Dragon-Seeking Sect realize what's happening, it will be too late to escape.
"Black Devil Mist Killing Technique!"
The Dream-Eating Devil lunged forward.
Wisps of black mist swirled around his body.
It then transformed into a ferocious and monstrous black mist beast, as if it wanted to devour everything.
Chen Ning smiled faintly.
Change title.
Wear the [Devil Subduer] title you obtained earlier.
[Devil Subduer Slayer Title Effect: Doubles damage dealt to Devil Cultivator, Devil Race, and evil spirits.]
Then, a strange and indescribable power emerged.
Chen Ning smiled faintly, her Exquisite Sword Heart stirring slightly.
A deadly Sword Intent descended.
The strange beast formed from the black mist was instantly torn to pieces.
Fragmented.
The Dream-Eating Devil was instantly critically injured.
He lay on the ground, barely clinging to life.
"This... this is impossible..."
"You... you're just a cultivator at the Earth Martial Realm, how could you possibly hurt me?"
The Dream-Eating Devil was utterly dejected at this moment.
I can't believe what just happened.
Under that terrifying Sword Intent.
He didn't even last a single breath.
Chen Ning acted very casually throughout the entire process.
When I killed King Li before, I had to put in some effort to comprehend the Sword Intent in order to defeat him.
But the dream -Dream-Eating Devil before us is more about cunning tricks.
Their actual combat strength and raw power are even weaker King Li's.
In addition, there's the double damage from the Devil Subduer.
Defeating the Dream-Eating Devil was incredibly easy.
Xiao Mei, who was not far away, also had a look of admiration in her eyes when she saw this scene.
The sect leader actually defeated the Dream-Eating Devil in a single move.
One move to defeat Half-Step Martial Venerable!
That's absolutely outrageous!
Although she had long believed that the sect leader possessed a secret treasure, she was still deeply shocked at this moment.
Looking at the dying Dream-Eating Devil on the ground.
Chen Ning glanced at Xiao Mei again out of the corner of his eye.
Seeing the other person slumped on the bed, Chen Ning felt that the desired effect had been achieved.
It has already served its purpose of deterring others.
So, what's next?
The mission is complete once the Dream-Eating Devil Eater is killed.
However, at this moment, the Dream-Eating Devil's deep voice rang out. "Sect Leader Chen, I am one of the Demon Princes personally chosen by the Demon Emperor, of noble status. If I die at the Dragon-Seeking Sect, it will create a rift between you and my Holy Race. How about this, I, the Demon Prince, exchange a secret for my life, what do you say?"
The Dream-Eating Devil finished speaking.
Xiao Mei felt a chill run through her body; it seemed the Dream-Eating Devil was going to sacrifice the pawn to save the king.
To survive, the Dream-Eating Devil would most likely betray her.
At that time, whether it falls into the hands of the Dragon-Seeking Sect or the Demon Emperor...
She was doomed to die.
But now there's nothing she can do.
It seems despair has descended.
The Dream-Eating Devil's seductive voice continued, "Sect Leader Chen, killing me will bring you no benefit. Releasing this demon prince will grant you a secret, and perhaps even more. Why not?"
At this moment, Chen Ning touched his chin, seemingly weighing the pros and cons.
Dream-Eating Devil was very pleased; he had persuaded the other party.
They were able to survive.
However, just as the Dream-Eating Devil's face was filled with a smile, a Sword Intent suddenly descended, robbing him of all his life force.
"You..."
The Dream-Eating Devil stared at the other party in disbelief.
They seemed completely unprepared for him to act so suddenly.
In the end, the Dream-Eating Devil vanished.
Chen Ning shook his head and smiled. What secret could compare to the rewards given by the system?
These Devil Race are too naive.
Xiao Mei, who was not far away, also looked shocked. The sect leader had actually helped her kill the Dream-Eating Devil.
The Dream-Eating Devil died at Chen Ning's hands; even if the Demon Emperor sensed it, he would only consider himself unlucky.
As for handling the aftermath, Xiao Mei had many ways to prevent trouble from getting to her.
In this way...
She could then continue to stay at the Dragon-Seeking Sect.
But at that moment, Xiao Mei suddenly frowned, feeling an unbearable burning sensation all over her body.
