Chapter 368: Chapter 366: This Emperor’s Eyes Have No Place for Traitors
“Keep acting tough! If I don’t beat the shit out of you today, you can say you’re clean!”
Yu Chao’an intimidated the Roe Demon, then soared up next to Tong Xin’chuan.
Looking at the Golden Eyes Lion in the array, he sneered and rolled up his Daoist robe, clapping his hands together forcefully.
“…”
Tong Xin’chuan gave the idiot a helpless glance.
He quickly gathered his thoughts and began setting up the second killing formation.
...
Just then.
His pupils suddenly constricted.
He saw the Golden Eyes Lion Emperor take a casual look around, his expression calm, without the slightest ripple.
Following that, it nonchalantly took a step forward.
The seemingly chaotic steps grew increasingly faster, each one stepping on Tong Xin’chuan’s heart, making his face instantly contort in ferocity.
In just a few breaths’ time.
Shen Yi walked out of the light screen unhurriedly.
The flock of phoenixes seemed not to see him at all, still fluttering and shedding light dust.
Whoosh—
With the sound of tearing through the air.
Yu Chao’an glimpsed the massive golden eyes in front of him, and the spell he was halfway through reciting came to an abrupt stop.
He awkwardly tugged at the corner of his mouth, “Lion Emperor, I was just kidding.”
Tong Xin’chuan’s breathing trembled, his eyes wid with rage and disbelief staring at the lion before him, his movements freezing quietly in place.
The half-completed killing formation slipped from his hands.
The fog that filled the sky suddenly dispersed, revealing two massive dragon and tiger guillotines, descending at a speed invisible to the naked eye.
Then they mercilessly chopped down on the muscled back of the lion.
Crack!
The dragon and tiger guillotines inexplicably shattered into pieces.
The lion’s gaze did not change in the slightest, and following that, it violently swung its paw, its sharp claws carrying the sound of tearing wind, heavily striking both men.
Yu Chao’an, having barely regained his composure, was once again sent flying.
Only this time there was another figure beside him.
Tong Xin’chuan’s eyes were dazed, as he flew backward as if facing a great confusion.
He couldn’t understand how in this world someone needed only three glances to walk out of the formation he took pride in.
Even those with similar expertise to him could not possibly break the formation so easily without even needing to think.
Just before hitting the ground.
He finally conjured a propitious cloud to cushion their fall.
His fingers moved slightly, wanting to set up another formation, but after a brief tremble, he reached for his storage bag at his waist instead.
Immediately after, a seemingly ordinary array plate drifted out from his waist.
That was the tool his master once used to pass on formations to him.
Summoning this item meant that Tong Xin’chuan, albeit unwillingly, conceded defeat in the realm of formation knowledge deep within his heart.
Although he always disparaged these few people.
At such a critical moment, he actually couldn’t bear to gamble his junior’s life over a moment of arrogance.
“Escape.”
He closed his eyes, his voice somewhat weak.
Suddenly, the array plate burst into blinding brilliance, enveloping the lion’s body.
Grabbing his junior’s robe, Tong Xin’chuan didn’t look back as he fled into the distance!
However, the Golden Eyes Lion Emperor seemed to anticipate something and, before being enveloped, once again threw the long spear in its hand.
The Youwei turned into an extremely thin streak of light chasing after the two men.
It struck Tong Xin’chuan’s waist, sending him flying a hundred feet again.
“Pu!”
Tong Xin’chuan spat out a mouthful of blood and looked back in horror, then as if sensing something, reached toward his waist.
“Are you okay, what happened?” Yu Chao’an gasped for air in great gulps.
“I… I’m okay, let’s go.”
Tong Xin’chuan, touching his empty waistband, gritted his teeth, swallowed the blood in his mouth, and still showed no intention of looking back.
“…”
Shen Yi retrieved the Youwei Spear, looking around at the sword rain covering the sky.
He slowly turned to the Roe Demon and said coldly, “Stop them.”
“I.”
The Roe Demon opened its mouth, “You’re giving orders now? Better save your own life first!” it thought.
It sighed, pretending to chase diligently ahead.
“Whew.”
Shen Yi shifted his gaze back to Sword Rain.
He had been able to break through Tong Xin Chuan’s Formation; the reason was simple. He had truly exhausted more than twenty thousand years of his lifespan, memorizing all the Xu Family’s formation diagrams, including mere conjectures and fanciful ideas—none of which he had omitted.
And the entrapment Formation that Tong Xin Chuan had just set up belonged to one that had already been researched.
He didn’t rely on innate talent or cleverness to break through the Formation; it was purely due to his thorough familiarity—hence, no need to think.
As for this completely unfamiliar one… he could only face it head-on.
In an instant, swords wailed to the skies.
Transforming into a drizzle as fine as cow hair, the luminescent streams all fell onto the lion’s body.
In the deafening roars and explosions that followed, the ground within dozens of miles shook violently as countless muds and stones were thrown into the air.
“Hiss!”
The Roe Demon, who was pretending to chase, trembled all over and looked back in horror.
Then, its entire body stiffened in place.
Among the flying mud and stones, an eight-zhang-tall figure stepped out at a leisurely pace.
It still bore the same proud demeanor, akin to that of a sovereign.
Unhurriedly, it walked to the Roe Demon’s side.
As if the sword formation that had just altered the heavens and the earth was merely an illusion.
Shen Yi calmly looked towards the empty space in front of him, then revealed a smile, “Is this how you block someone’s path?”
As he spoke, he slowly lowered his gaze.
Under the scrutiny of those golden eyes, the Roe Demon could barely keep its balance, and as a Demon Emperor, under the watchful eyes of all, it ridiculously fell to the ground, “Lion Emperor, it’s not… you… let me explain… ”
“Let me explain, please!”
Amidst the shrill pleas for mercy, a dark spear suddenly pierced through its neck, and Monster Blood splattered around.
“Intentionally letting the Wutong Mountain disciples escape, yet you still try to argue.”
Shen Yi smiled gently, but even Thunderhoof, who was far in the sky, could not help but shudder at the moment.
“Do you take me for a fool?”
As he spoke, his mighty lion’s paw enveloped the Roe Demon’s head.
Suddenly, he tore it off.
Hiss—
The lion opened its mouth slightly, leisurely feasting on the flesh and blood.
Under the gaze of many demons.
With meticulousness tinged with ferocity, it slowly swallowed the Roe Demon whole.
The entire Thousand Demon Cave fell into silence.
Including the voluptuous woman who was slowly descending behind the lion.
The Golden Eyes Lion Emperor flapped its wings with a complex expression as it watched the scene unfold.
Savage and brooking no defiance.
Decisive and utterly merciless.
“Even though it was indeed naturally timid, it never deliberately colluded with Wutong Mountain… After all, it was under my command; don’t you think you’ve gone a bit too far?”
“Hmph.”
Shen Yi wiped the bloodstain from the corner of his mouth with his paw, “Colluding or not, your word doesn’t count. I only believe my own eyes—it let my prey escape.”
“I could have crippled Wutong Mountain in one go.”
He turned around slowly, his expression filled with murderous intent.
Upon hearing this, the Golden Eyes Lion Emperor hesitated for a moment, fury mounting in its eyes, “Come back with me, I have words for you.”
Shen Yi indifferently looked back, “I still have unfinished business.”
“What business?” the woman frowned.
She saw Shen Yi slowly extend his hand, his palm cradling a small, twinkling Jade Slip.
He lifted the corners of his mouth, looking toward the sky, “I want to know what this is, why this Thousand Demon Cave can’t accommodate me, who has established great achievements.”
His voice slowly resonated.
Under the watch of those golden eyes.

The Thunderhoof Demon Emperor was startle, its body’s thunder scales erupting, guiltily turning and fleeing towards the Clear Thunder Pool!
“…”
The Golden Eyes Lion Emperor lapsed into silence, its gaze growing more complex.
An ambitious Great Demon striving to lead the Thousand Demon Cave would never tolerate a traitor in its midst.
“As you wish.”
She waved her hand and departed, “But afterward, you must give me an explanation.”
The Golden Eyes Lion Emperor appeared to not hear and turned around, stepping into the cavern.
Leaving only the far-off crowd of onlookers.
Watching the Golden Eyes Lion Emperor’s departure with a mix of fear and respect in their eyes.
And remained silent for a long time.
