Instant Kill, What's There to Say? (Please Read!)

Wu Wei was very good at taking advice, and scurried happily out of the backstage area.

Jiang Yuan remained seated where he was, spreading his mental power and Electromagnetic Domain in every direction as he closely watched every corner of the venue.

While waiting for the Scaly Demon Mother to reveal an opening, he also tried to catch the aura of those Parasitic Demons.

That probe really did let him sense a faint feeling of discord in some of the students.

He just had no way to confirm whether that feeling was from Parasitic Demons.

So after marking those students with his Electromagnetic Domain, he stopped paying attention to them.

Time slipped by quietly.

Soon, evening arrived.

There were more and more students in the venue. By a rough estimate, the number had actually reached around eight thousand. More than half of Green Campus's students had gathered here.

Strangely, Qin Yun had said earlier that he would be back soon, but there was still no sign of him now. Who knew where he had run off to.

Jiang Yuan suspected he was probably with Dean Xiao right now, secretly watching from some hidden spot.

By now, the stage was fully prepared.

The idol singer could take the stage and perform at any moment.

"Cu Cu, Cu Cu, Cu Cu!!"

The students waved the glow sticks in their hands and shouted their idol's name in perfect unison.

Under everyone's gaze, a graceful figure in bright, striking clothes slowly rose from the center of the stage.

"Hello, everyone!" Cu Cu's voice was sweet as she greeted the audience below, instantly triggering an even louder wave of cheers.

The lift had already risen three meters high. According to the original plan, it should have slowly descended and officially begun the performance.

However, the lift did not move at all.

Cu Cu smiled at the audience with a hint of apology, then turned around and called sweetly to the auntie controlling the lift, "Miss, you can let me down now!"

The auntie did not press the button on the remote in her hand. Instead, the smile on her face suddenly turned eerie.

"Miss Cu Cu, thank you for preparing this gluttonous feast for me and my children today."

Before Cu Cu could understand what those words meant, her pupils suddenly widened.

She watched in horror as the auntie's skin began to peel away piece by piece, revealing the ugly, nauseating demon body inside!

"Rippppppp!!!"

Sharp claws grew from the auntie's hands, and she actually tore her own skin open by force!

When the Scaly Demon Mother fully revealed herself, the venue first fell into a brief, fraction-of-a-second dead silence, then erupted with deafening, shrill screams.

"Ah!!!!!!"

However, the truly terrifying part was still to come.

"My children, wake up now. Eat your fill."

The Scaly Demon Mother's voice was extremely hoarse. Every word was like a dull knife, scraping harshly against people's eardrums.

She raised that hideous head, sticky fluid constantly sliding down from the corners of her mouth.

The next second.

"Gyaaah~~~!!!!"

"Gyaaah~~~~~~!!!!"

Sharp, piercing cries instantly spread throughout the entire venue.

Amid those strange cries, the demons parasitizing the students' bodies awakened one after another.

The students discovered in terror that they were instantly surrounded by demons. The classmates who had been chatting and laughing with them moments ago shed their human skins in the blink of an eye and lunged at them with bared fangs and brandished claws.

Monsters appeared one after another.

In an instant, the students who had not been parasitized were completely surrounded.

Chaos.

Everything descended into chaos.

Below the stage, dense waves of heads surged.

Screams, curses, and prayers wove together into a despairing dirge.

"H-help me..." Cu Cu curled up fearfully in the corner.

She wanted to cry out for help, but her throat seemed to be blocked by something. By the time her voice reached her lips, only a faint whimper remained.

"Miss Cu Cu, do you know how delicious you are? It doesn't matter if you don't. I'll slowly savor your flesh and tell you exactly how delicious it is."

The Scaly Demon Mother flicked out her long, bright-red tongue and advanced toward Cu Cu step by step.

Just as the Scaly Demon Mother was about to make her move on Cu Cu, a tall, straight figure slowly walked out from the shadows in the corner of the stage.

The Scaly Demon Mother suddenly turned her head. A wary light flashed in her vertical pupils as she stared fixedly at Jiang Yuan, who had appeared. "Who are you?"

In truth, it knew very well that the human world hid many powerful beings far stronger than itself.

But human flesh was simply too tempting—not only delicious, but also a great tonic for demons!

And most human children were unarmed, utterly incapable of posing any threat to it.

That was why it had risked sneaking into the human world, trying to secretly prey on humans.

The Scaly Demon Mother firmly believed that as long as she was careful enough, she could keep hiding until she had slowly devoured the entire human world!

Thankfully, no one knew about that ridiculous idea of hers. Otherwise, she probably would have become a disgrace to the demon world.

"Classmate, run... boo-hoo-hoo," Cu Cu cried softly. As she spoke, tears burst from her eyes.

She both hoped that this boy who had suddenly appeared before her could save her, and couldn't bear to watch him throw his life away for nothing.

"It's all right. Don't be scared," Jiang Yuan comforted her softly.

His calm gaze swept over the Scaly Demon Mother, then turned to the students fleeing in every direction after being frightened by the Parasitic Demons.

He couldn't help feeling speechless.

Did these look like mages trained by an institution of higher learning?

They had no real combat experience at all. The moment they saw demons, they panicked and ran blindly, forgetting even their own abilities as mages.

These Parasitic Demons were barely even Servant level. With their strength, they should have been able to handle them easily.

No wonder so many mages in society looked down on the academy faction.

They were simply too fragile!

If he were part of the School Leadership, he would definitely organize more practical demon combat drills, on the premise of ensuring the students' safety.

Humans were still struggling to survive under the threat of demons.

As outstanding mages trained by institutions of higher learning, how could they become greenhouse flowers?

On the other side, the Scaly Demon Mother could no longer suppress her craving for flesh and blood.

"Hyaaah~~~!"

She hissed, using both hands and feet like a crazed beast as she lunged at Jiang Yuan.

Beside Jiang Yuan, a blue star chart appeared in an instant, radiating mysterious light.

"Storm Wave—Flood Roll!"

Following his low shout, surging water erupted like waves from the sea.

In one move, it blasted the Scaly Demon Mother away, then swept toward the densely packed crowd.

Chen Shui poured backward, and whirlpools churned in rushing currents.

Jiang Yuan skillfully used Storm Wave to separate the Parasitic Demons from the normal students, preventing any accidents.

Then his gaze locked onto the Scaly Demon Mother, who had been washed into a corner.

The Scaly Demon Mother's face was filled with terror.

This was bad!

She had run into one of the human world's powerful beings!

She wanted to flee, but she wasn't as fast as Jiang Yuan.

A gray star chart suddenly lit up.

A massive White Bone War General descended from the sky, both feet stomping heavily onto the Scaly Demon Mother's body. The intense pain made her let out a shrill howl.

Hearing that cry, the Parasitic Demons went mad, surging crazily toward this side.

"Kill her," Jiang Yuan ordered the Three-eyed Underworld General calmly.

Ghostly fire flickered in the Three-eyed Underworld General's eye sockets, giving off an eerie glow. He drew the cleaver from his back.

His hand rose, and the blade fell!

The Scaly Demon Mother's head instantly rolled to the ground, blood spraying out like a fountain!

Instant kill. What else was there to say?
