Faced with this horde of demons, the members of the Demon Suppressing Division were now in a state of panic.
The Great Demon of Tushan immediately grew excited. "Demon Suppressing Division, not one of you will escape!"
"Since I was willing to bring my people here, did you think I hadn't made other preparations?"
Mu Yuan rubbed his chin, a smile on his face.
The Great Demon furrowed his brows as he watched him, keeping an eye on their surroundings.
But he didn't spot anyone lying in ambush nearby.
From that, he could tell Mu Yuan was bluffing.
"Children, don't bother with them. Filling our bellies is what matters most!"
The Great Demon no longer held back.
If he could kill the members of the Demon Suppressing Division here,
then Tushan would become famous once and for all.
From then on, he reckoned no one from the Imperial Court would dare come here!
"Kill!"
Seeing this, Chen Guan swung his fists, ready to charge into the demon horde.
But Mu Yuan stopped him!
"Now we need to deal with the Great Demon. As long as he dies, these demons will be nothing to worry about!"
Mu Yuan's words left Chen Guan puzzled.
The realm Mu Yuan had displayed just moments ago
was on a par with the Great Demon's.
So how was he going to kill him?
At Mu Yuan's command, the members of the Demon Suppressing Division began to defend themselves.
Meanwhile, without another word, Mu Yuan charged at the Great Demon.
"Good! Come at me!"
The Great Demon met him head-on.
Black demonic energy gathered around his body.
He swiped his right claw straight at Mu Yuan.
Just as Chen Guan was holding his breath for Mu Yuan,
a golden dragon-elephant apparition appeared around him.
"Chen Guan, watch closely. This is the true Dragon Elephant Subduing Demon Art!"
As Mu Yuan's voice fell,
golden light gathered around his fist.
He drove his fist forward with all his might, smashing it into the Great Demon's right claw.
The tremendous force sent them both stumbling back several steps.
The Great Demon's right arm was already drenched in blood!
"How is this possible? Our realms are about the same. How can you unleash such tremendous power?"
The Great Demon stared at Mu Yuan in shock.
From that exchange, it was clear
that Mu Yuan had been holding back all along when they fought earlier!
Chen Guan wore an excited smile.
What Mu Yuan had just demonstrated was the true Dragon Elephant Subduing Demon Art.
That powerful attack was exactly what Chen Guan had always wanted to master.
"Against you, I'm more than enough!"
Mu Yuan gave a cold laugh, shook his head, and charged forward again like a gust of wind.
The members of the Demon Suppressing Division were struggling against the horde of demons,
but at least they could hold out for now.
So whether they lived or died now depended on whether Mu Yuan could defeat the Great Demon of Tushan!
Chen Guan still hadn't joined the fight.
His eyes stayed fixed on the battle between Mu Yuan and the Great Demon.
One thing was clear to him: the deciding factor now rested with him.
That was why Mu Yuan had stopped him from joining the fight.
"Dragon Elephant Fist!"
Mu Yuan planted his feet in an extremely peculiar stance.
Then, when the Great Demon closed in, he began to unleash the Dragon Elephant Fist.
Every punch carried the power of a dragon elephant.
The tremendous force left the Great Demon of Tushan unable to defend himself, and he began to retreat step by step.
But this was as far as Mu Yuan could go with his strongest attack.
Chen Guan had quietly made his way behind the Great Demon.
Seizing the instant the Great Demon fell back, he rushed forward with Whirlwind Wind Steps.
"Wild Goose Fist!"
Chen Guan kicked off the ground with his right foot, shooting forward like an arrow loosed from a bow.
His body abruptly appeared behind the Great Demon.
Even the Great Demon was taken aback by this.
Yet he wasn't the least bit flustered.
After all, he could see Chen Guan's realm and believed Chen Guan's current strength couldn't threaten him.
But the moment the Wild Goose Fist struck his back, the Great Demon realized he'd been completely wrong.
Inner force gathered all around Chen Guan's fist.
That punch could split heaven and earth!
"Ah!"
The Great Demon let out a howl and was sent flying.
He spat out a mouthful of blood and crashed hard to the ground.
"Well done!"
Mu Yuan nodded approvingly.
Chen Guan was not only skilled in martial arts; he was also excellent at seizing the right moment and opportunity in battle.
The Great Demon got back to his feet.
His face twisted with madness. "You're asking for death! Black Sand Strike!"
With a sweep of his hand,
black sand whipped up around them, gathering in the air before crashing down at Chen Guan.
Chen Guan tried to use Whirlwind Wind Steps to dodge the attack,
but the black sand had already surrounded him, trapping him in place.
He couldn't move at all.
All he could do was watch as the black sand came crashing down.
But the Great Demon's attack was clearly driven by desperation.
He had completely forgotten that Chen Guan wasn't the only opponent he had to face.
Mu Yuan was right there too!
In the end, the black sand never struck Chen Guan.
Mu Yuan stepped in front of him.
He used the dragon-elephant apparition around his body to withstand the black sand's attack.
"Chen Guan, go!"
Mu Yuan's voice boomed beside his ear.
Taking cover behind Mu Yuan, Chen Guan spun around on his feet, using Whirlwind Wind Steps.
With Whirlwind Wind Steps pushed to its limit, he reached the Great Demon in an instant.
Before the Great Demon could react,
the Wild Goose Fist slammed straight into his face.
The Great Demon howled as his body rolled across the ground several times before coming to a stop.
He got back up and saw that Mu Yuan had also dealt with the black sand and moved behind him, cutting off his retreat.
After suffering two Wild Goose Fist attacks,
the Great Demon no longer dared to underestimate Chen Guan.
"You've got some real skill! But don't think that means I'll let you live!"
The Great Demon got to his feet and roared at them.
But Mu Yuan and Chen Guan could both see how his bluster masked his fear.
"Attack!"
At Mu Yuan's command, he and Chen Guan charged forward together.
But the Great Demon had already planned his escape.
The instant they charged at him,
black sand swirled around his body, obscuring their vision.
Once it cleared, he had vanished.
"He still got away!"
Chen Guan shook his head, his expression dark with regret.
If they'd managed to kill the Great Demon, he couldn't even imagine how much Demon Lifespan he would have gained.
"No matter. From now on, Tushan will be safe! My aim was to gather all the demons in Tushan here and deal with them!"
"Once we've taken care of these demons, the Great Demon will be all alone. He'll be much easier to deal with next time!"
Mu Yuan shook his head with a smile.
Chen Guan smiled too, then followed Mu Yuan into the crowd, where they began slaughtering the remaining demons.
Just as Mu Yuan had said,
once the Great Demon ran off, the demons were at a loss and could only line up to be slaughtered by Chen Guan and the others!
