Demonic Creatures

"Stop!"

Luo Ming roared, a layer of pink gauze appearing around him. His long saber pulsed with Qi and Blood, and he looked ready for a major battle.

A flicker of surprise crossed Ye Xiaofan's eyes.

Normally, only those at the Body Refinement Sixth Layer could cultivate Qi and Blood Gauze. He hadn't expected Luo Ming to have cultivated it at just the Body Refinement Fifth Layer.

It seemed his talent wasn't bad.

Seeing this, the others quickly moved closer to Luo Ming, scanning their surroundings vigilantly.

Their group numbered over ten people, and Tie Wuqing's specific strength was unknown.

Luo Ming was at the Body Refinement Fifth Layer, Zhang Tianhong at the Body Refinement Fourth Layer, and the rest of the Demon Suppressing Guards and Iron Hand Gang members were at Body Refinement Second to Third Layer cultivation.

The tall figure blocking their path slowly walked towards them.

An invisible, terrifying aura pressed down on them. Some Demon Suppressing Guards and gang members turned pale, their hands gripping their weapons trembling.

The air was almost frozen, and everyone felt like fish drowning.

Ye Xiaofan felt this aura, his heart pounding as if it would leap out of his chest.

This was several times stronger than the one-armed man who had chased him before.

No weaker than a cultivator at the Body Refinement Seventh Layer!

Ye Xiaofan's palms grew damp, and he instinctively tightened his grip on the sword hilt. The Qi and Blood within him felt like the calm water in a kettle before it boils.

He did his best to dispel the chill that enveloped him.

The figure drew closer, silent, yet it felt like war drums pounding in everyone's hearts.

In the firelight, Ye Xiaofan finally saw the appearance of this tall figure.

He immediately gasped.

Dark green scales covered its body, emitting a cold glint in the firelight. Its bald head was topped with a spiral, blood-red horn. Its blood-red pupils were like two red lanterns in the darkness.

Wolfskin covered its lower body, but the rest of it was no different from a human.

A humanoid demonic creature!

After joining the Demon Suppression Division, he had seen other beast-like demonic creatures in the dungeons, but never a humanoid one.

Humanoid demonic creatures possessed intelligence no less than humans, and their strength was terrifyingly formidable.

Among those of the same level, few human cultivators could match them.

"Hmph!"

At some point, Tie Wuqing rode his horse to the front and let out a snort, breaking the humanoid demonic creature's imposing aura.

Everyone felt their bodies relax, their breathing returning to normal.

The humanoid demonic creature's pupils contracted, and a look of solemnity appeared on its face.

The information he had received was that there were only ten people coming, and the highest cultivation level was no more than Body Refinement Fifth Layer.

Who was this woman who suddenly appeared, whose strength he couldn't discern?

The humanoid demonic creature's expression turned grim; the situation seemed to be beyond his control.

"Human, who are you?"

"Why aren't you being a good human, but willingly falling into depravity? You deserve to die!"

Ye Xiaofan's heart trembled upon hearing this. He carefully observed the humanoid demonic creature before him.

Tie Wuqing's words contained a lot of information.

He vaguely guessed, could this demonic creature before him have been a human?

"What do you know? You people only know how to look down on others from on high!"

The humanoid demonic creature suddenly became emotionally unstable and roared furiously.

Tie Wuqing's words seemed to deeply pierce the humanoid demonic creature's most vulnerable and sensitive spot.

Tie Wuqing remained silent, taking a large gulp of wine from his flask. The wine spilled, releasing a captivating fragrance.

The next moment, Tie Wuqing hung his wine gourd on his horse and leaped into the air, gliding towards the demonic creature.

In mid-air, a blood-red armor materialized around Tie Wuqing, revealing only his eyes, which were like stars but exuded a terrifying killing intent.

"Roar!"

The demonic creature's pupils constricted sharply. It roared, and a dense black energy emanated from its body, instantly condensing into black armor. Its fingernails grew long, becoming like ten sharp daggers as it clawed at Tie Wuqing in mid-air.

In an instant, It was as if heaven and earth changed color, the night sky was torn apart, and red and black intertwined.

Palm strikes were heavy, and sharp claws tore through the air.

The sounds of explosions were constant. In almost an instant, the surrounding environment was devastated, the earth cracked open, and dust flew everywhere.

Suddenly, Tie Wuqing seized the opportunity and struck out with a palm print about a foot wide, made of blood. The demonic creature, unable to react in time, took the blow directly to its chest.

Instantly, its chest caved in, and it spat out black blood, flying backward. It crashed through over a dozen large trees before it could finally stabilize itself.

It spat out another mouthful of black blood, which landed on the ground and rose in wisps of black smoke, corroding a pit into the earth.

"Still not coming out."

The humanoid demonic creature wiped the blood from its lips. Its sunken chest quickly recovered, and it roared toward the depths of the forest.

"Useless!"

A grating sound, like rusty gears grinding, exploded in the darkness.

The next moment, another humanoid demonic creature, slightly taller and with two horns on its head, slowly emerged from the depths of the forest.

At the same time, a rustling sound echoed, and in the blink of an eye, pairs of blood-red pupils appeared in the surrounding darkness.

Faintly, one could also see massive beast-like figures of various shapes hidden among the trees and grass.

The horned demonic creature clasped its hands behind its back, its blood-red eyes watching Tie Wuqing with amusement, as if admiring a flawless piece of uncarved jade.

"Look at your mom!"

Tie Wuqing suddenly let out a vulgar curse, unbefitting her status. Her entire body turned into a bloody afterimage as she charged at the horned demonic creature.

"Heh heh~"

The horned demonic creature licked its lips, grinning to reveal a mouth full of jagged teeth.

The human and the demon instantly became entangled.

The power was even more terrifying than before. Everyone could only hear the deafening sounds of collision and the roars of the demonic creatures.

Just then, the restless demonic creatures around seemed to have received an order, roaring and charging toward Ye Xiaofan and the others.

The one-horned demonic creature that Tie Wuqing had just defeated had recovered some of its injuries. It flashed forward like an ancient wild bull, charging at Tie Wuqing.

Fighting two at once, Tie Wuqing remained at ease, firmly suppressing the two powerful humanoid demonic creatures.

"Brothers, follow me and slay these demonic creatures!"

Seeing how powerful Tie Wuqing was, Luo Ming's heart settled, and he roared, charging forward.

"Kill!"

Zhang Tianhong was not to be outdone.

Their Qi and Blood surged as they wielded their twin blades, blocking two powerful demonic creatures.

On the Iron Hand Gang's side, under the leadership of a hall master, they also proactively engaged the demonic creatures.

In an instant, the shouts of killing and the roars of beasts intertwined.

Ye Xiaofan's eyes were filled with cold light. He channeled forty percent of the Qi and Blood within his body, transforming into a son of the wind god. He moved through the chaotic battlefield like a gentle breeze.

Sword Drawing Technique, every sword strike draws blood!

Wherever Ye Xiaofan went, blood splattered, and beast heads flew.

The Demon Suppressing Guards and the Iron Hand Gang members were fiercely battling multiple demonic creatures when they suddenly felt a gust of wind blow past.

A silver streak remained in their pupils.

The next moment, they saw the heads of powerful demonic creatures flying off.

"It's Ye Xiaofan!"

A Demon Suppressing Guard with decent strength recognized Ye Xiaofan's figure and exclaimed.

They had only heard that Ye Xiaofan's talent was monstrous, his cultivation speed was incredibly fast, and he could fight beyond his level.

But they never imagined his combat prowess would be so heaven-defying, slaughtering demonic creatures as if chopping vegetables.

"Brothers, kill! Cut down these man-eating demons."

Seeing Ye Xiaofan's ferocity, with not a single demonic creature able to withstand his sword, everyone's spirits soared. They roared to the sky and charged at the demonic creatures.

Their shouts drowned out the roars of the demonic creatures.

This was the easiest time they had ever had fighting demonic creatures.

The scales of victory gradually tipped in Ye Xiaofan's favor.

Tie Wuqing's peripheral vision constantly observed the lower-level battlefield. When she saw her side gaining the upper hand, she breathed a sigh of relief.

Especially when she saw that it was because Ye Xiaofan was cutting down demonic creatures like vegetables, their heads rolling, her beautiful eyes sparkled with admiration.

"A young prodigy!"

Then, Tie Wuqing confidently withdrew her gaze. Her violent Qi and Blood surged out of her body, and she focused all her efforts on dealing with the two humanoid demonic creatures.

Suddenly, the pressure on the two humanoid demonic creatures increased significantly.

The Ox-Horn Demonic Creature's face was so grim it could drip water. He had underestimated the woman before him.

Both were at the Ninth Level Body Refinement, yet the gap in combat power between him and this faceless masked woman felt like an unbridgeable chasm.

Even with the two demonic creatures working together, they were no match for this delicate woman.

If the fight continued, their defeat was only a matter of time.

"Stop her."

The Ox-Horn Demonic Creature roared and dodged Tie Wuqing's palm strike, then shot towards Ye Xiaofan.

His objective this time was to capture Ye Xiaofan alive; killing was secondary.

The situation had changed, and it was not advisable to get entangled further.

The One-Horned Demonic Creature's face was ugly. If Tie Wuqing hadn't beaten him to the point where he couldn't speak, he would have cursed loudly.

This was practically a death sentence for him!

Tie Wuqing wouldn't let the Ninth Level Body Refinement Ox-Horn Demonic Creature escape his control. He immediately forced the One-Horned Demonic Creature back with a palm strike and pursued the Ox-Horn Demonic Creature.

Although the One-Horned Demonic Creature was displeased, he dared not disobey the order. He gritted his teeth and charged forward to block Tie Wuqing.

"Scram!"

A sharp cry, and a terrifying blood-red palm print struck the One-Horned Demonic Creature.

The One-Horned Demonic Creature's heart trembled violently. The chill of death made him flinch, and he instinctively dodged to the side.

Tie Wuqing ignored the One-Horned Demonic Creature and continued chasing the Ox-Horn Demonic Creature.

If that Ox-Horn Demonic Creature managed to break into the crowd, the consequences would be unimaginable.

On the other side, Ye Xiaofan felt a prickle of unease, his mind screaming a warning.

There was no time to think. He immediately abandoned suppressing the lingering poison in his body, and the thick Qi and Blood within him surged madly.

He pushed the Perfection-level Wind God Steps to their absolute limit.

At this moment, Ye Xiaofan felt as if he had truly transformed into a gust of wind.
