Elsewhere, Li Yu had struggled to deal with a third-tier demon and was utterly exhausted, both mentally and physically, when he saw Ōtsutsuki Yamei flying toward him.
"Zi Yu, how are you?"
"I can still hold on."
Ōtsutsuki Yamei took the initiative to support Li Yu by the arm, her face full of concern, making him feel somewhat flattered.
"Your sleeve and the clothes over your chest... are you really all right?"
One of Li Yu's sleeves had been torn away, and the clothes over his chest were in tatters, leaving him in a thoroughly disheveled state.
"I'm fine. I'll be better after some rest."
Ōtsutsuki Anshiki and Ōtsutsuki Keiko quickly drew near.
"The demon? Where's the demon?" Ōtsutsuki Keiko assumed a fighting stance.

Hearing this, Li Yu could not help feeling a little smug. If he could kill a third-tier demon above his level alone, then killing a third-tier Ōtsutsuki would not be difficult either.

Li Yu looked intently in the direction Ōtsutsuki Keiko was pointing, and his mind immediately tensed to the extreme.
"Damn, are they other demons drawn here by the battle?"
"They're coming this way," Ōtsutsuki Yamei warned.
"Miss, we've been spotted. What do we do?"
Ōtsutsuki Anshiki could not help feeling nervous, her mind racing.
Li Yu withdrew the arm resting on Ōtsutsuki Yamei's shoulder, leaving the support of her soft body, and straightened his back.
"You go first.
