After the last battle with the demon race, Yang Jian had gained some understanding of their aura.
The moment the aura reached him, Yang Jian sensed it at once.
"The other aura is extremely strange. It belongs neither to the human race nor the demon race. I don't even recognize it!"
Yang Jian stroked his chin. The Primordial World was vast beyond measure; it was perfectly normal for things he did not know to exist.
Still, it piqued his curiosity. With a flicker of his body, he vanished from where he stood.
The battlefield was not far from him. After only two flashes, he had arrived nearby.
"These demons are actually ganging up on someone!"
As soon as Yang Jian approached, he saw several demons besieging a living being.
"This being has the cultivation of a perfected true immortal. His strength is not weak, but unfortunately, he encountered these demons!"
After observing them, Yang Jian immediately saw the difference in strength between both sides.
The unknown being had reached the perfected true immortal realm, while even the strongest among the demons was slightly inferior to him.
In a one-on-one fight, this being would naturally have won.
However, the demons knew they were no match for him, so they had attacked him together, gaining a certain advantage.
"Master, these demons clearly intend to kill him. Every move they make is filled with killing intent!"
Three-Headed Flood Dragon's voice rose in Yang Jian's mind. Yang Jian nodded. "That's right. These fellows clearly mean to kill him!"
However, Yang Jian also noticed that the being's physical body was no weaker than those of the demons. Although he was being besieged, he was still handling it with ease.
But Yang Jian knew that this could only be maintained temporarily. Given enough time, that being would likely meet a gruesome end!
"Fine. Since we met today, it must be fate. I'll lend you a hand!"
Yang Jian sighed softly, his aura erupting as it bore down on the demons!
"What fiend dares to run wild on Mount Buzhou? Are you tired of living?"
Yang Jian instantly appeared in front of the being. Neither side had expected this to happen, and they were all stunned.
The being was the first to react. Realizing that Yang Jian had come to help him, he was immediately delighted.
"Thank you, Fellow Daoist, for your assistance!"
The being bowed, and Yang Jian smiled. "Meeting is fate. Besides, I can't stand the way these demons act!"
The demons also recovered, and their expressions changed.
"Who are you? I advise you not to meddle in other people's business!"
Yang Jian sneered and clenched his right hand. The Three-Pointed Double-Edged Halberd appeared in his grasp.
"Sorry, but I'm meddling in this matter today!"
"A perfected Golden Immortal? So he's only a human. Everyone, there's no need to worry!"
After sensing Yang Jian's aura, they were initially stunned, but then they all relaxed.
The human race's fortune was poor. Even at the same realm, humans were far weaker than demons.
Thus, in many cases, demons could rely on their physical bodies to challenge humans across realms.
Several demons revealed vicious looks. "Kid, you dare ruin our demon race's business? Today, we'll make you regret it!"
With that, several demons charged forward together, ready to tear Yang Jian apart on the spot!
Yang Jian sneered. "You look down on the human race? Today, I'll show you that the human race is not something you can provoke!"
Instead of retreating, he advanced, heading straight for their leader!
Seeing Yang Jian charge over, the leader confidently prepared to take the blow head-on. But in the next instant, his eyes widened.
Yang Jian's Three-Pointed Double-Edged Halberd pierced straight through his body. In the blink of an eye, all life force within him dissipated.
"How can this guy be so terrifying?"
"The weapon in his hand is definitely no ordinary item. Retreat!"
The remaining demons also came to their senses. Realizing they were no match for Yang Jian, they immediately prepared to flee.
But how could Yang Jian give them that chance? With a throw of his right hand, the Three-Pointed Double-Edged Halberd flew from his grasp, and Three-Headed Flood Dragon manifested his true form.
Three-Headed Flood Dragon had already been in a foul mood these past few days. Now that these demons had appeared before him, how could he possibly let them go?
He opened his massive, bloodthirsty jaws. Yang Jian had already dealt with the strongest one; how could the rest possibly be his match?
Yang Jian walked over to the being and looked at him with interest. "I am Yang Jian. May I ask who you are?"
The being immediately bowed. "Thank you, Fellow Daoist, for saving me. My name is Hou Yan, and I am a member of the Witch Clan!"
A descendant of the Witch Clan?
Yang Jian was startled. After the Witch-Demon War, both the Witch Clan and the demon race had hidden themselves from the world.
Although both sides had left behind some descendants, they rarely appeared.
Yang Jian had not expected to encounter a member of the Witch Clan here.
