In the dim underground room, the glow of weapons illuminated the surroundings.

Zhao Xing'er must have a Storage Magic Artifact on her, otherwise, it would be difficult to explain how she carried her two-meter-long Three-Pointed Double-Edged Halberd with her.

Storage Magic Artifacts are generally equipped by disciples of Immortal Sects or elites of the Supervision Bureau. For ordinary cultivators, it's not a question of whether they can afford it, but rather that you need a Magic Artifact to store your treasures if you have many valuable items worth carrying around.

For those miscellaneous items, a backpack would suffice.

Zhao Xing'er's Three-Pointed Double-Edged Halberd was naturally extraordinary as well. Its sharpness was chilling, and its quality was extremely high. Empowered by her Martial Spirit Red Light, one swing unleashed a large crescent arc of light, forcing Vest Tiger and Golden Refined Tiger to retreat.

If either of the two tigers had retreated even a moment slower, they would have met that crimson edge and ended up with one losing an ear and the other a tail!

The Tiger Demons' bodies, as hard as metal and stone, had always been their greatest pride, but at the moment they faced the Three-Pointed Double-Edged Halberd, they simultaneously felt fear.

Meanwhile, Earphone Tiger charged towards Yue Wen. Yue Wen simply let go and hurled the Flying Sword in his right hand.

Sword Control Art!

The Flying Sword instantly turned into a cold glint, startling Earphone Tiger into flipping and landing, but it still couldn't dodge in time. Its left claw clanged against the side of the Flying Sword, drawing a line of scalding blood.

Screech--

The first wave of attacks from the three Tiger Demons, which was supposed to be powerful, was so easily intercepted by two young people!

Yue Wen had intended to hold them off himself, giving Zhao Xing'er a chance to make a call. He hadn't expected the situation to turn into Zhao Xing'er transforming into a warrior charging the front lines while he acted as the mage in the rear.

He reacted quickly, pulling out his phone directly from his pocket. Fortunately, he knew someone at the Supervision Bureau in City Seven, so he quickly found their contact and dialed.

"Roar--"

Suit Tiger, which had been stationed at the rear, seemed to have been anticipating this move. Seeing Yue Wen about to make a call, it let out a sudden roar that shook the heavens and earth.

Its roar was more powerful than the combined roars of the three tigers earlier.

The soundproofing in this underground room was excellent, not only due to the sturdy materials but also reinforced by various formations. The purpose was likely to prevent the sounds and auras from inside from escaping and attracting attention to this group of Tiger Demons.

Yet, this single roar caused the ground and the underground to shake three times!

The building above trembled, and the members of the Tiger Head Gang below were thrown into a panic, exchanging bewildered glances. "What happened?"

At this moment, the burly man, Old Six, had just run down from upstairs. After closing the basement door, he had guessed that no matter who won between the two young people and Brother Hu, the fight would last for a while.

Thinking he had to escape anyway, he decided to go all out and take as much as he could before leaving!

So, he went upstairs to the Tiger Head Gang's money storage and began to loot it extensively.

Now, he had a large duffel bag full of money slung over his left shoulder, a jewelry box filled with precious ornaments hanging from his right arm, the keys to a luxury car and over a dozen particularly valuable ugly plush toys clipped to his waist, and two "sisters" in super short skirts with fiery red lips slung over his back...

He was fully prepared to flee.

Just as he was worrying about being noticed and having trouble leaving, he heard the ground shake. He ran while shouting loudly, "Earthquake! Run! Earthquake! Run!"

"An earthquake?"

Hearing his shouts, the headquarters descended into even greater chaos.

However, some people remained clear-headed and looked towards the basement. "Brother Hu is still inside! What do we do? Should we go save him?"

"What's Brother Hu's strength, and what's yours?" the burly man shouted. "Does Brother Hu need you to save him?"

"That's true."

And so, a group of Brother Hu's subordinates scattered from the building like birds and beasts.

The battle in the underground room escalated once more with Suit Tiger's roar.

Yue Wen trembled from the shock, his hand shaking as he dialed, nearly dropping his phone. Fortunately, his spirit was strong enough that he endured the strongest wave of sound and managed to press the button.

However, he no longer had time to speak. He didn't care if the other party had answered or not and shoved the dialed phone back into his pocket.

The next second, a gust of black wind surged forward!

It was the Black Tiger that had been lying in the corner. Although it appeared to be the largest, it was because it had remained in its beast form. Compared to the other Tiger Demons, it was likely the youngest and had the lowest cultivation, which was why it hadn't transformed into human form.

However, this little Black Tiger was the fiercest. In the blink of an eye, it lunged from the distant corner, like a black whirlwind.

Yue Wen reacted swiftly, raising two fingers on his right hand. He recalled the Flying Sword and stabbed it towards the Black Tiger from behind.

"Roar--" The Black Tiger flicked its tail, dodging the sword. At the same time, its thick tail swung ferociously towards Yue Wen.

Judging by the momentum, being hit by that tail would result in a broken bone, if not death!

Yue Wen unleashed his movement technique, spinning to narrowly evade it. He pulled the sword light back and, instinctively, severed the tiger's tail.

But at the same time, Earphone Tiger pounced, its claws forming hooks like ten steel blades, slashing down fiercely!

Yue Wen had no choice but to change direction. The sword light moved horizontally, blocking the tiger's claw strike. Clang! Sparks flew as Earphone Tiger's claws were once again wounded.

At this moment, Suit Tiger, which had been sitting there, suddenly stood up. "Outsiders will definitely be attracted today! Hurry and kill them, then leave here!"

Its den, where it had resided for many years, had been inexplicably invaded by these two uninvited guests, forcing it to rearrange everything. Rage surged in its eyes as it leaped forward!

Riiip! Its black clothing tore.

Its suit jacket exploded, revealing a body of terrifying muscle!

"Thunder Tiger Shocks Heaven Fist!"

After ripping his clothes, he swung his right fist in the air, suddenly drawing a bright white light that trailed a long luminous tail as he punched towards Zhao Xing'er!

On Zhao Xing'er's side, she was swinging the Three-Pointed Double-Edged Halberd, suppressing two Tiger Demons with her martial arts cultivation and formidable red light. Suddenly hearing the wind rushing towards her, she hastily raised her weapon to block.

BOOM!

This punch landed on the weapon's shaft, and its full power exploded, still sending Zhao Xing'er flying heavily, crashing hard against the wall behind her.

She had once again become a living mural.

Yue Wen, standing nearby, noticed this scene and immediately frowned.

This Tiger Demon not only possessed the strongest physique and innate Supernatural Powers, but it had also practiced martial arts techniques! Its combat power was far beyond Ten Thousand Grandma Level!

Demonic creatures are naturally dull-witted, and their species are incompatible with human customs. It is very difficult for them to comprehend human Visualization Diagrams. Forget about Supernatural Powers and wondrous techniques; even the simplest martial arts techniques are extremely difficult for them to cultivate.

However, once they achieve mastery, combined with their already heaven-blessed physiques, it becomes a completely different matter.

Zhao Xing'er, whom two Tiger Demons couldn't handle, was instantly broken through her defenses by this punch!

Seeing the Suit Tiger's aura shift towards him, realizing he was about to be surrounded and attacked by five tigers, Yue Wen felt a sense of dread. He swung his sword, creating distance, and quickly retreated a few steps.

The Tiger Demons thought he was trying to escape and immediately swarmed after him.

Just as the Tiger Demons' attention was fully focused on him, Yue Wen suddenly raised his hand and shouted, "Behold, my sword!"

The five Tiger Demons focused their gazes, but instead of a sword, they saw an incredibly dazzling white light he unleashed!

Instantly, the underground chamber erupted as if a sun had burst forth!

Flash Art!

He had already closed his eyes in advance, so the light did not affect him. When he opened his eyes again, he was faced with five completely panicked Tiger Demons!

All white!

The sudden loss of vision had a tremendous impact. By the time they used their senses of smell and aura to locate Yue Wen again, they detected a pungent scent of blood.

Sword Control Art and Flash Art were unleashed simultaneously. The sword light, agile as a swimming dragon, sliced through the necks of the Vest Tiger and the Golden Refined Tiger. Scalding tiger blood sprayed out like a fountain, a gruesome spectacle of blood rain!

Yue Wen did not choose to attack the strongest Suit Tiger because he worried that even with the Flash Art surprise attack, his sword might not be able to kill it.

By acting with the utmost speed, he directly eliminated two opponents, which was the most secure approach.

As golden light entered his body, he knew he would gain a large sum of Demon Suppressing Coins this time, but it wasn't a time for celebration.

He needed to survive to spend his earnings!

Watching two of their brethren die before their eyes, the remaining three Tiger Demons' pupils bled, and they let out roars of mixed fury and grief.

"ROOOAR—"

Despicable humans! Shameless tactics!

Yue Wen, his face full of caution, quickly created distance between himself and them.

He did not relax after killing two Tiger Demons. Previously, there were five full-health Tiger Demons; now, there were three enraged ones. The situation might be even more perilous!

And at this very moment, on the wall behind the Tiger Demons, a ball of red light grew increasingly blinding.

Enveloped in the crimson glow, Zhao Xing'er floated in mid-air, her face contorted in anger, shouting, "Who's using Flash Art over there, it blinded me—"

Judging by her state, it was clear she had reached the point where she could no longer control her Martial Spirit Red Light, filled with rage and recognizing no one.

So, Yue Wen decisively pointed at the three Tiger Demons before him and shouted loudly, "It's these three!"
