Erased in a Flash!
The night was deep in the secluded alleyways of the western part of the city.
A figure came riding the wind and landed on the Bluestone road.
Yang Xiao stood in the street, his gaze sweeping around. He caught a faint, familiar scent in the air, which seemed to be Zhou Zheng's.
The distress signal from the Qi-Gathering Bottle stopped there, but there weren't many signs of a struggle at the scene.
Am I too late?
Just as he was about to leave, he suddenly sensed several mixed Yao Qi slowly swirling around him in the shadows.
A moment later--
"The Deputy General..."
A weak voice came from the alley.
Footsteps sounded, and a figure staggered out of the alley.
The man was covered in blood, his dark-colored outfit was torn in several places, and his exposed skin was covered in wounds. He was unsteady on his feet.
Yang Xiao turned around and looked at the person.
It was a man dressed Deputy General, about thirty years old, with disheveled hair that obscured his face.
"The Deputy General..."
The man raised his head and gave a weak smile.
"I was being hunted by Demon... Fortunately, I encountered a few Deputy General who helped me in the Demon..."
He stretched out a hand and offered it to Yang Xiao.
"Please Deputy General with me immediately, my lieutenant..."
Yang Xiao looked at the outstretched hand and walked towards the person.
A look of delight flashed in the man's eyes, and he extended his hand even further forward.
"Deputy General, this way..."
Yang Xiao walked up to the man and shook his hand in return.
The man's smile widened.
In that instant, Yang Xiao's other hand suddenly shot out!
A Rising Dragon Fist, carrying immense power, slammed upwards toward the man's jaw!
The man tried to back away, but Yang Xiao had already grabbed his hand and he couldn't break free!
The fist pierced through his jaw and went straight into his skull!
Blood and brain matter spurted from the man's head, splattering onto Yang Xiao's face and body.
"Hiss--!"
The man let out a sharp screech, and his face, which had been that of Deputy General, suddenly twisted, revealing half of a crimson fox face.
Its sharp claws reached for Yang Xiao's heart, attempting a final counterattack.
But Yang Xiao didn't give it that chance at all.
His fist came down again.
He punched the Red-Faced Fox in the head, slamming it directly into the Bluestone of the ground.
The Bluestone shattered, and fragments of stone flew everywhere.
The Red-Faced Fox's head was smashed and dented, its brains splattered everywhere, its crimson fur covered in blood, and its once gleaming eyes had completely lost their luster.
Yang Xiao released his grip, stood up, and silently began to count.
"The Seven Demons of She Mountain, the Red-Faced Fox... the first one."
No sooner had the words left his mouth than several Yao Qi in the distance erupted simultaneously!
"Sixth Sister!!"
A sharp cry pierced the night sky!
Yang Xiao suddenly looked up and saw a black feathered demon swooping down from the clouds.
Its eyes gleamed with bloodlust, and its wings folded into a sharp shape, like a black arrow, swooping straight at you!
"You dare kill my sixth sister! You're asking for death!"
The Black-Feather Demon let out an angry screech, its sharp claws swooping down on Yang Xiao like an eagle!
Yang Xiao watched the Black-Feather Demon swooping down, then slowly raised his right hand, and the Army-Breaking Spear appeared in his palm.
"Well done!" he hissed, his wrist suddenly tightening!
The Army-Breaking Spear transformed into a black streak of light and flew out of his hand!
The gun's blade tore through the air, emitting a sharp whistling sound!
The Black-Feather Demon had just swooped down halfway when it saw an incredibly sharp black light flying towards it.
It tried to flap its wings to dodge, but the latter was too fast, so fast that it didn't have time to react.
The spearhead pierced through its chest and abdomen and emerged from its back.
"Gah--!!"
The Black-Feather Demon let out a painful howl as its massive body was sent flying backward by the spear, until it was pinned to the wall of a house a hundred meters away, the spearhead deeply embedded in the bricks!
The Black-Feather Demon's wings drooped limply, and blood gushed from the wounds in its chest and abdomen, staining its jet-black feathers red.
With Yang Xiao's current strength, he wouldn't be at a disadvantage even if he clashed with Demon who had just entered the Profound Mysterious Core Realm. How could Aperture-Opening Demon possibly put up a fight?
The Black-Feather Demon's eyes gradually lost their luster, and its angry roar, under the corrosive influence of the Demon-Slaying Soul-Extinction, turned into a weak groan, until it fell silent.
Yang Xiao stood there, looking at the Black-Feather Demon nailed to the wall.
"The second one."
Yang Xiao withdrew his gaze and scanned his surroundings again.
The Red-Faced Fox is dead, and the Black-Feather Demon has been captured, but there are still other Demon hiding nearby. Since you won't come out, I'll force you to.
He strode towards the Black-Feather Demon nailed to the wall in the distance.
Just then, an angry roar came from the other end of the street!
A massive figure burst forth from the shadows, kicking up clouds of dust, and hurtled straight at Yang Xiao!
"You brat, die!!"
The Stone Bull Demon charged straight at you with a ferocious aura.
It roared angrily, its horns gleaming with an earthy yellow light, unstoppable, with the force to shake mountains!
Yang Xiao looked at the charging Stone Bull Demon and made no attempt to dodge.
He stood still until the very last moment before slowly raising his hand.
Boom--!!
The Stone Bull Demon crashed into Yang Xiao with a loud bang!
Dust billowed up, and gravel flew everywhere!
But the next moment, when the dust settled, Yang Xiao was still standing in the same spot, his right hand on the Stone Bull Demon's horn, keeping it an arm's length away.
The Stone Bull Demon's pupils suddenly contracted, his face filled with disbelief.
Its Mountain-Shaking Charge could even collapse city walls, but this human... didn't budge an inch?!
"Is that all the strength you have?"
Yang Xiao let out a low shout and suddenly exerted force with his right hand!
He broke off one of the Stone Bull Demon's horns!
"Roar--!!"
The Stone Bull Demon let out a painful howl and staggered backward.
But Yang Xiao didn't give it a chance to catch its breath.
He took a step forward and appeared in front of the Stone Bull Demon, clenching his left fist and smashing it toward its head.
"Boom--!"
He punched the Stone Bull Demon on the bridge of its nose, sending it flying backward with its head tilted back.
Blood spurted from the Stone Bull Demon's nostrils and mouth, and a moment of dizziness flashed in its eyes, but its vitality was equally tenacious, and it was still struggling desperately even after being hit hard.
"Roar--!!"
The Stone Bull Demon roared again, tilted its head, and rammed its remaining horn toward Yang Xiao's heart.
Yang Xiao dodged to the side, simultaneously clenching his right fist again!
"Boom! Boom! Boom!"
Three punches landed in quick succession, each one incredibly powerful, causing the Stone Bull Demon to stagger backward!
Finally, the Stone Bull Demon's body went limp, and it knelt down on the ground.
Its head was almost completely shattered, its eyes lost their luster, and a large amount of blood gushed from its mouth. It had been killed by a flurry of punches.
Yang Xiao looked at the Stone Bull Demon lying on the ground and secretly counted the numbers in his mind.
"The third one..."
He could sense several Yao Qi pulsating in the distance.
If they were just moments ago trying to surround him, the remaining few Yao Qi are now planning to flee.
He strode forward, hastily pulling the Demon Core from the three corpses on the ground. Without even having time to collect the corpses and put them into the Fourth Equipment Slot, he chased after the remaining two demons.
We've finally encountered them, we have to kill them all.
