Releasing the Demon from the Mountain, Crossing the Border Alone

Green Luo Continent, border region.

Hundreds of Treasure Ship hovered above the mountains, their hulls connected by Dao Patterns, forming a massive concealment Array Formation.

From a distance, the place is still shrouded in mist.

Even though many demonic beasts passed by warily below, they were unaware of the warriors who were already poised to attack.

On the lead ship.

A middle-aged man with a square face stood beside Ye Li, carefully explaining the situation here.

This man's name was Zhou Su, and he was the newly transferred head of the Alliance Association).

He had served in a border garrison here in his early years and was quite familiar with the various locations where he was stationed.

But now, facing Ye Li, even he, who was usually known for his composure, couldn't help but show some restraint, and cupped his hands in greeting:

"Palace Heir, according to my verification, there are three Fortune-Mastery Demon King here, all from the Heavenly Wolf lineage, and they are brothers from the same mother."

"It is said that they once broke through the Fortune-Mastery together, always advancing and retreating in unison, making their cooperation extremely difficult."

"Previously, it was the Perfected Iron Face himself who, with the help of several other True Person, managed to barely seal one of them inside that mountain."

Zhou Su raised his hand and pointed into the distance.

A majestic mountain stands amidst the surrounding peaks, its Array Runes, and several thick chains running through its body can be faintly seen.

"However, the other two leaders refused to give up the rescue and gathered many Great Demon under their command."

"The constant harassment over the years has dragged the battle line out until now."

"... I don't think so."

Ye Li looked into the distance and chuckled softly:

"Since one end has been blocked, and the other two ends are unwilling to leave."

"If we make good use of their friendship, we can always find an opportunity to wipe them all out in one fell swoop. Why have we let it drag on until now?"

"This..."

Zhou Su's expression stiffened slightly, and he remained silent, somewhat embarrassed.

He, as an observer, could naturally see that Wave-Subduing Residence was suspected of harboring bandits to enhance its own power.

However, Xu Yan, who was previously in charge of this area, had a past relationship with him, and he hadn't dared to expose the matter openly before.

They feared that Wave-Subduing Residence would abandon its responsibilities, leading to the loss of the border, and they also feared being secretly retaliated against by the Perfected Iron Face.

Secretly submitting a few reports to members of the alliance was already the limit of what he could do.

But no matter what excuses are given, Xu Yan cannot escape the fact that he neglected his duties.

Zhou Su hesitated for a moment, then cupped his hands and said:

"Regarding President Xu's previous dereliction of duty, please provide your Palace Heir, and I will immediately report to the alliance and take appropriate action."

Ye Li waved his hand casually:

"Considering that he voluntarily turned himself in, we will not pursue the matter for the time being."

Let's get down to business first.

Zhou Su just breathed a sigh of relief.

An Ziqing, who was standing to the side, suddenly spoke up:

"Since there has been dereliction of duty, how can we let the matter drop simply because the person has voluntarily confessed?"

Under Zhou Su's astonished gaze, the naturally beautiful and aloof young woman raised her eyes to look at Ye Li and said coldly:

"If others follow suit, concealing their mistakes before they can be hidden any longer and then admitting them, wouldn't the entire Alliance Association be thrown into chaos?"

These words were spoken with great force and conviction.

No sooner had she finished speaking than a slap landed hard on her face!

A crisp sound rang out in the air, causing An Ziqing's slender figure to sway and fall to the ground, her words cut off on the spot.

Ye Li then withdrew his hand and said calmly:

"Did I tell you to speak? Get down!"

Zhou Su stood frozen in place, eyes downcast and mind focused, not daring to move an inch.

An Ziqing clenched his fists, and a hint of anger gradually appeared on his usually cold face.

But I met those calm eyes.

After a long while, she finally managed to squeeze out a sound from between her teeth:

"Yes!"

Having said that, she lowered her eyes and retreated to the back, amidst countless different gazes.

It was a complete loss of face in public...

An Ziqing had expected himself to be angry.

But as I felt it in my heart, that familiar feeling of pleasure surged up uncontrollably again.

This made her afraid to lift her head; she could only clench her hands tighter to suppress the anger in her eyes.

Zhou Su also dared not look any further, secretly clicking his tongue in amazement.

Holy crap, the rumors are true!

This Palace Heir Ye... she really treats the Palace Heir of the Cold Purity Palace like dogs!

As a bank manager, what qualifications do I have to stand by and watch something like this happen?!

When this Palace Heir An eventually achieves the realm of True Person, if he recalls this state of affairs, will he gouge out his own eyes first?!

Thinking of this...

Zhou Su quickly lowered his head and said, forcing himself to speak:

"This humble servant thanks you, Palace Heir, on behalf of President Xu!"

Ye Li paid no attention and turned his gaze back to the distance.

Near the mountains, some demonic energy still lingers.

Clearly, even now, some Demon Race are secretly observing the changes in the seal of this place.

"Let's create the illusion that the seal has been breached, make the commotion as big as possible."

"Yes!"

Zhou Su immediately took out the talisman and sent out orders to various places.

Several beams of light silently shot out from the Treasure Ship and disappeared into the distant mountains.

A moment later.

Boom!!!

The majestic mountain suddenly trembled violently, and large cracks appeared one after another on its body!

Several chains suddenly tightened, then snapped in mid-air!

The sealing Array Runes covering the mountains shattered the instant it lit up, and billowing demonic energy immediately surged into the sky!!

"Awooo--!!!"

A wolf howl, filled with both joy and surprise, instantly resounded across the mountain peaks!

"They're out!"

"I've finally emerged!!"

Amidst the flying debris, a massive wolf demon suddenly leaped out!

Its entire body was grayish-blue, with a thick mane extending from its neck to its chest, and a row of silvery-white bone spurs growing along its back.

As the four legs touched the ground, a powerful, dark blue-black wind swept through the surroundings, making it difficult to open one's eyes!

'OK!!'

The white-boned wolf demon's demonic eyes swept across the surroundings, its eyes filled with the wild joy of finally escaping its long-standing confinement!

They've been sealed away in the mountains for years.

Its five senses were completely suppressed by the Array Formation, leaving it unaware of any changes in the outside world!

Now that the seal has suddenly shattered, its first reaction is to flee; it has no time to investigate the cause!

The only strange thing is that I can't figure out why I can no longer sense the presence of my two brothers within my range...

As the white-boned wolf demon's thoughts churned, a deafening roar that sent shivers down his spine rang in his ears:

"The Demon King has broken free!"

"How could this happen? Stop it!"

"Go and inform the Iron Face Prefectural Lord immediately!"

"The Prefectural Lord is coming immediately! Wolf demon, don't you dare run away!!"

At the foot of the mountain, hundreds of cultivators who had been arranged in advance appeared one after another, activating the Wave-Subduing Residence Formation Banner with a mixture of shock and horror!

Beams of Dao Law light intertwined in the air, attempting to force the wolf demon back into the mountain!

"Get out of here!!"

The white-boned wolf demon let out an excited howl, and the silver-white bone spikes on its back suddenly lit up!

How could these shrimp soldiers and crab generals stationed there every day possibly stop it from returning home?!

Innate supernatural Divine Ability activated instantly!

In an instant, the demonic wind around it surged, and its massive body transformed into a gray shadow, charging fiercely towards the magical light!

Boom!!!

The multiple arrays of light exploded on the spot!

The cultivators were forced to retreat continuously, and the military formations that should have been deployed on both sides were a step too slow!

Seizing the opportunity, the wolf demon immediately broke free of the encirclement!

Fearing that the Perfected Iron Face would receive the news and arrive, it stirred up a sky full of demonic clouds and fled at full speed towards the Vast Wild Continent as soon as it escaped!

Even if it can't sense the presence of its own siblings within its range, it still has a special way to communicate!

"..."

On the Treasure Ship, Zhou Su's expression gradually became serious.

Although they had intentionally let them pass, the demonic aura they exuded was undeniable.

A genuine Demon King Fortune-Mastery destiny!

Adding to their two other brothers, countless war sympathizers have died at their hands along the border over the years.

Several of his comrades from his early years never returned from that area.

If we can kill all three demons this time, the people in the nearby cities will finally be able to live a more peaceful life!

Thinking of this...

Zhou Su turned around and solemnly cupped his hands in greeting:

"Palace Heir, the play is over."

"All the camps are ready. I wonder how many troops you plan to bring on this expedition to slay the demon?"

That was all.

He saw the Official Player in the Green Robe glance at the rapidly receding demonic clouds on the horizon, then a contemptuous smile appeared on his face:

"Going abroad to slay demons, and we still need to muster troops?"

Zhou Su was taken aback by what he heard.

Before he could speak, the other person transformed into a golden light and vanished from the ship in an instant!

"This..."

Zhou Su stood frozen in place, this great cultivator who Half-step True Person still unable to see the direction the other party had left in.

In the distance, the demonic cloud was still fleeing with all its might.

The wolf demon was completely unaware that another person had appeared behind it.

Hundreds of Treasure Ship.

Upon hearing those words, all the cultivators in the alliance looked up at the sky, their hearts pounding with excitement!

Zhou Su stood there, also lost in thought for a moment.

After a while.

The bank manager finally couldn't help but murmur softly:

"Truly, so full of vigor..."
