"Roar~"
Gravel flew everywhere, accompanied by three inhuman roars that exploded in my ears.
Immediately, three gusts of wind that stung the skin smashed towards him.
Ye Xiaofan's pupils constricted. He hadn't expected that behind a random stone door he'd broken open, three demons would be imprisoned.
In a flash of lightning and sparks, A sword's hum!
The bloody long dragon unsheathed.
In an instant, Sparks flew!
A mournful wail shook the heavens!
The two demons were sent flying back, crashing heavily against the stone chamber walls.
Only a demon with a single horn on its head and a closed eye in its brow withstood Ye Xiaofan's strike.
and still had the strength to counterattack.
Ye Xiaofan's eyes narrowed slightly as he took a step back, dodging the incoming sharp claws.
At the same time, his wrist turned slightly, and the long sword in his hand bypassed the attacking claws, sticking close to the demon's scales and thrusting straight for its heart.
The demon beast suddenly retreated, unleashing several slashes of bloody qi energy from its palms, tinged with a hint of scarlet.
Ye Xiaofan didn't dare to be careless.
Based on our brief exchange, this demon's strength has long surpassed the ninth level of Qi Refining, with two blood changes.
Cannot rely on brute force, must rely on speed and wit.
In an instant, Within Ye Xiaofan's body, his qi and blood erupted like a volcanic explosion, and a great sun of qi and blood appeared.
The three-foot treasured sword in his hand blazed like the midday sun, forming a sword curtain before him.
"I'll help you!"
Tie Wuqing let out a delicate cry, stepping forward as her palms flew, sending several palm strikes to meet the blade's light.
The red and black erupted in strange fireworks, the terrifying aftershocks forcing Ye Xiaofan and Tie Wuqing to retreat repeatedly.
The demon, however, didn't budge. It stomped its foot, turning into an afterimage as it continued its attack.
Uncle Xiao!
At this moment, The smoke and dust cleared, revealing the demon's clear face.
Beneath the dark green scales, Xiao Qiao Feng's appearance could still be vaguely discerned.
Ye Xiaofan couldn't help but exclaim.
Perhaps it was the name Xiao Qiao Feng, or perhaps it was Ye Xiao Fan standing before him.
Xiao Qiao Feng's body stiffened, and endless pain flashed in his eyes.
Clutching his head, he wailed madly on the ground.
His consciousness in disarray, images of the youth before him flashed through his mind.
He was just transformed into a demon, his consciousness is chaotic, maybe he can still be awakened.
Seeing this, Tie Wuqing quickly shouted to Ye Xiaofan.
Uncle Xiao, wake up quickly, it's Ye Xiaofan.
Uncle Xiao~
"Roar~"
The commotion here quickly drew everyone's attention.
Some of the Demon Suppressing Guards clearly recognized Xiao Qiao Feng, and they averted their gazes with looks of pity.
Uncle Xiao, wake up quickly, Lord Zuo Qianhu is here to vanquish evil.
Ye Xiaofan tightened the treasured sword in his hand and continued to shout at Xiao Qiaofeng.
"Roar~"
His only response was inhuman wails.
"He's beyond saving. Kill him and put him out of his misery."
Liu Qingyun didn't know when he had come to Ye Xiaofan's side, speaking in a low voice.
"Vice Commander Liu, can't Commander Zuo, who is still in the Qi Refining stage, save Uncle Xiao?"
Liu Qingyun shook his head. "Roar~"
Gravel scattered, accompanied by three inhuman roars that exploded in my ears.
Immediately, three gusts of wind that stung the skin slammed into them.
Ye Xiaofan's pupils contracted sharply. He hadn't expected that behind a stone door he'd casually broken open, three demonic creatures would be imprisoned.
In a flash, A sword cry!
A blood-red dragon unsheathed.
Instantly, Sparks flew!
Wails echoed!
Two demonic creatures were sent flying back in response, crashing heavily against the stone chamber walls.
Only one demonic creature, with a goat-like horn on its head and a closed eye in its brow, managed to withstand Ye Xiaofan's attack.
And it still had the strength to counterattack.
Ye Xiaofan's gaze narrowed slightly. He took a step back, dodging the incoming claw.
At the same time, he twisted his wrist, and the long sword in his hand bypassed the attacking claw, sticking close to the demonic creature's scales and heading straight for its heart.
The demonic creature retreated sharply, its palms striking out repeatedly, unleashing several streaks of Qi and Blood blade energy, black with a hint of crimson.
Ye Xiaofan didn't dare to be careless.
Judging from their brief exchange, this demonic creature's strength had long surpassed the ninth level of Body Refining with two Blood Replacements.
He couldn't confront it head-on; he could only rely on speed and strategy.
In an instant, Ye Xiaofan's internal Qi and Blood erupted like a volcano, and a Qi and Blood Great Sun appeared.
The three-foot treasure sword in his hand became like scorching sunfire, forming a sword screen before him.
"I'll help you!"
Tie Wuqing cried out, stepping forward. Her palms flew, and several palm strikes met the blade energy.
Red and black erupted in an eerie display, and the terrifying aftershock forced both Ye Xiaofan and Tie Wuqing to retreat repeatedly.
The demonic creature, however, remained unmoved. It stomped its foot, turning into an afterimage and continuing its attack.
"Uncle Xiao!"
At this moment, The dust cleared, revealing the demonic creature's clear face.
Beneath the dark green scales, the appearance of Xiao Qiaofeng could vaguely be discerned.
Ye Xiaofan couldn't help but exclaim.
Perhaps it was the name Xiao Qiaofeng, or perhaps it was Ye Xiaofan standing before him.
Xiao Qiaofeng's body stiffened, and endless pain flashed in his eyes.
Clutching his head, he wailed madly on the ground.
His consciousness in chaos, images of the young man before him flashed through his mind.
"He's only just been transformed into a demonic creature, his consciousness is in chaos. We might still be able to awaken him."
Tie Wuqing saw this and quickly shouted to Ye Xiaofan.
"Uncle Xiao, wake up! I'm Ye Xiaofan."
"Uncle Xiao~"
"Roar~"
The commotion here quickly attracted everyone's attention.
Some Demon Suppressing Guards clearly recognized Xiao Qiaofeng, and they averted their gazes with visible reluctance.
"Uncle Xiao, wake up! Commander Zuo is here to vanquish evil."
Ye Xiaofan tightened his grip on his treasure sword and continued to shout at Xiao Qiaofeng.
"Roar~"
His only response was a non-human howl.
"It's hopeless. Kill him and let him suffer less."
Liu Qingyun appeared beside Ye Xiaofan at some point, speaking in a low tone.
"Deputy Commander Liu, can't even Commander Zuo at the Qi Condensation stage save Uncle Xiao?"
Liu Qingyun shook his head.
Watching Xiao Qiaofeng writhe in pain on the ground, Ye Xiaofan's eyes turned red, emitting a chilling killing intent.
The Qi and Blood Great Sun burning around him intensified by several degrees.
"Uncle Xiao, I'm sorry."
The sword shot out like a dragon, its Qi and Blood surging and extending by over ten feet as it pulsed.
"Roar~"
Xiao Qiaofeng, who was howling in pain on the ground, seemed to sense the danger.
His frenzied, chaotic eyes instantly turned blood red, and he used all four limbs to instantly shift several dozen feet away.
His long sword slashed a deep gash on the ground, extending all the way to Xiao Qiaofeng's front.
Drip.
A drop of black-red blood fell from the scales on Xiao Qiaofeng's chest.
"Roar~"
The demonic Xiao Qiaofeng was thoroughly enraged. A dragon-like phantom could vaguely be seen within the black Qi and Blood Great Sun burning all over his body.
Xiao Qiaofeng slammed his palms on the ground and charged at Ye Xiaofan with his sharp claws, moving like black lightning.
Liu Qingyun's expression changed. "Those at the First Blood Replacement stage and above, attack together."
But before the others could move, Ye Xiaofan took a step.
He executed the Wind Shadow Steps to its limit, and six figures, indistinguishable from the real one, appeared before them.
The disoriented Xiao Qiaofeng unhesitatingly lunged at the figure directly in front of him.
Silently, like a breaking bubble.
As requested by our many readers, we are now introducing a VIP ad-free feature.
Click to view.
Before Xiao Qiaofeng could attack another figure, a figure to his left suddenly drew his sword.
"Clang!"
Like a dragon's roar across the sky, a crisp sword chime rang in everyone's ears.
A trace of blood-red flame remained in his pupils.
The long sword heavily struck Xiao Qiaofeng's right ribs.
Instantly, Xiao Qiaofeng was sent flying, crashing into the stone wall.
He spat out three mouthfuls of black blood.
And left spiderweb-like cracks on the stone wall.
Ye Xiaofan frowned slightly.
It didn't break his defense!
"Roar~"
The demonic Xiao Qiaofeng seemed to feel no pain. He pushed off the stone wall with his feet and charged at Ye Xiaofan again.
At this moment, Liu Qingyun and the other six experts at the ninth level of Body Tempering, at or above the First Blood Replacement stage, arrived and intercepted Xiao Qiaofeng.
However, among the six, only Liu Qingyun was at the Second Blood Replacement stage; the rest were all at the First Blood Replacement stage.
As soon as they engaged, they suffered a disadvantage.
Each of them had blood at the corners of their mouths and retreated repeatedly.
Liu Qingyun bore the brunt of one attack as the main force, grunted, took a step back, and firmly held Xiao Qiaofeng in place.
Ye Xiaofan arrived with his sword.
The seven of them, led by Liu Qingyun and Ye Xiaofan, continuously attacked Xiao Qiaofeng.
Although Xiao Qiaofeng was demonic, as a Thousand Households Officer, the seven of them attacked his chest with great coordination.
They wanted to leave him with a dignified corpse.
Liu Qingyun engaged him head-on, while the other five harassed him.
Ye Xiaofan moved around Xiao Qiaofeng.
Time passed, The scales on Xiao Qiaofeng's chest began to crack.
"Now!"
Ye Xiaofan's eyes were fierce.
Sword Drawing Technique!
A sword strike guarantees blood!
"Pfft!"
The sound of flesh being pierced rang out like heavenly music in everyone's ears.
Qi and Blood erupted along the long sword, instantly shredding Xiao Qiaofeng's heart.
"Roar~"
Xiao Qiaofeng let out a mournful cry, his claws, which had been swiping at Ye Xiaofan, falling limply in mid-air.
"Xiaofan~"
Just as Ye Xiaofan was about to withdraw his long sword, a weak voice reached his ears.
"Uncle Xiao?"
Ye Xiaofan asked in disbelief.
"Don't speak, listen to me."
"Cough, cough~"
A mouthful of black blood surged from Xiao Qiaofeng's mouth. Xiao Qiaofeng struggled to stop Ye Xiaofan, who was trying to speak, and continued:
"Your father was likely betrayed by the Sun Family colluding with demonic creatures. He found me back then to tell me he discovered the Sun Family secretly capturing civilians."
"The Sun Family has likely all turned into demonic creatures, but the main culprit responsible for Qingyang County being controlled by evil is Sun Wutao, Sun Wude's elder brother."
"I, I also, also just learned this from the evil ones."
"Cough, cough, Xiaofan, I, I'm sorry. If I hadn't made your father act as bait, he wouldn't have died. Later, I even wanted to use you as bait..."
Before he could finish speaking, Xiao Qiaofeng's eyes, now blood-red, widened as he slumped into Ye Xiaofan's arms.
"Rest in peace, Uncle Xiao!"
Ye Xiaofan closed Xiao Qiaofeng's eyes.
Nothing else mattered.
He only knew that without Xiao Qiaofeng, he wouldn't have his current strength.
Without Xiao Qiaofeng, he wouldn't have been able to escape Qingyang City.
Otherwise, he would have already turned into a demonic creature and been slain by the Demon Suppressing Guard.
Behind Ye Xiaofan, the members of the Jinyang City Demon Suppressing Guard heard the name Sun Wutao.
Their expressions turned extremely grim, and endless rage seemed to ignite in their pupils.
This was because Sun Wutao was none other than the Deputy Commander of the Jinyang City Demon Suppressing Guard, who was currently in seclusion attempting to break through to the Qi Condensation stage.
"Lord Liu, may I handle the bodies of Uncle Xiao and the two inside?"
"You may, but they must be burned to ashes."
Liu Qingyun, jolted back to reality from Sun Wutao being an informant for the evil forces, nodded at the grief-stricken Ye Xiaofan.
"Thank you, sir."
"Gang Leader Tie, please help me watch over Uncle Xiao's body."
Ye Xiaofan placed Xiao Qiaofeng on the ground and turned to Tie Wuqing, saying this before entering the stone chamber.
Since Xiao Qiaofeng was imprisoned in here, it was obvious who one of the other two bodies was.
It was Luo Ming, who had impersonated him and helped him escape Qingyang City.
Tie Wuqing watched Ye Xiaofan silently, a trace of dried blood still on the corner of his mouth.
