Chapter 412: Chapter 412: Assault

"It’s confirmed! Han Feng has been in the City Lord’s Mansion in closed-door cultivation this entire time!"

The speaker was a stunning woman with an oval face, dressed in a tight black suit embroidered with a rabbit. She possessed a sensual figure and a gorgeous face, and her every move exuded a bewitching charm.

This gorgeous, oval-faced woman was Demon Rabbit, one of the Twelve Giant Demons. Though she was only a Martial Arts Grandmaster, she served as the eyes and ears of the Twelve Giant Demons. The intelligence she provided had allowed them to escape the encirclement of powerful experts many times, enabling them to grow and thrive.

"Mo Hu, where is Boss Demon Dragon? That brat Han Feng is as slippery as an eel. It’ll be easy to defeat him, but killing him won’t be so simple!"

This came from a middle-aged man in black clothes embroidered with a rooster. He had a handsome and refined appearance. This was Demon Chicken, one of the Twelve Giant Demons, who was known to be extremely cautious by nature.

Mo Hu’s face darkened as he spoke in a cold voice, "Are Boss Demon Dragon’s whereabouts something you’re qualified to ask about?"

Demon Chicken stiffened and obediently said, "My mistake."

Among the Twelve Giant Demons, the positions of Demon Dragon, Mo Hu, and Demon Snake had always been constant. The other nine had been replaced several times over.

Demon Dragon, the leader of the Twelve Giant Demons, was notoriously elusive and had become even more low-key in recent years. The only ones who knew his whereabouts were his sworn brothers, Mo Hu and Demon Snake.

Mo Hu said coolly, "You only need to know this: Boss Demon Dragon is handling something big. If he succeeds, we will become the Sixth Demon Sect of the Great Zhou Demon Country!"

At these words, the breathing of the other Giant Demons present grew ragged, and a fiery fervor gleamed in their eyes.

Each of the Five Great Demon Sects in the Great Zhou Demon Country controlled its own territory, collecting immense Tributes from major cities every year.

The Twelve Giant Demons rampaged, killed, and plundered everywhere they went, but the resources they acquired were a pittance compared to the Five Great Demon Sects. Furthermore, they were frequently hunted by these same sects, suffering heavy casualties with each encirclement.

If they could become the Sixth Demon Sect of the Great Zhou Demon Country, it would be like they had finally gone legitimate. They could sit back and receive a massive amount of Cultivation Resources every year. Their descendants would enjoy endless wealth and glory.

Mo Hu asked, "Demon Rabbit, is Han Feng in the City Lord’s Mansion now?"

Demon Rabbit replied, "He had breakfast in the City Lord’s Mansion this morning, and none of our informants have seen him leave. He should still be inside!"

"Everyone, assemble! We’re charging in! A mere brat at the Martial Master Realm, no matter how heaven-defying his Talent is, is nothing before me!"

"After we kill Han Feng, you can slaughter the city for a day. Then we withdraw!" Mo Hu added with a vicious grin.

With permission to sack the city, a flicker of excitement appeared in the eyes of every Warrior of the Twelve Giant Demons. They surged forward like a black tide, rushing toward the City Lord’s Mansion.

「Inside the Qiguang City Lord’s Mansion.」

’A Grand Martial Master! The Martial Emperor’s Form is truly heaven-defying!’

Shu Feng stood in a training room, quietly watching Xiaozhu, who sat to one side cultivating her Profound Qi. A flicker of envy crossed his eyes.

It had only been three or four months since Xiaozhu officially began her training, yet she had already gone from a little beggar who knew nothing to a Grand Martial Master. Such cultivation speed was simply unbelievable.

What was more frightening was that Xiaozhu reached the Extreme Realm in each Martial Arts Realm before breaking through, making her foundation incredibly solid.

Shu Feng himself had been able to reach the Grandmaster Realm so quickly only because he was originally an expert at the Spirit Venerable Realm Level, and his body had been terrifyingly enhanced by the Energy Evolution Tower.

Shu Feng frowned slightly. ’My Cultivation Resources are running low! Why hasn’t the Sea Martial Venerable shown up yet?’

Sun Yiluo’s invitation was a trap laid by Shu Feng. As long as the Sea Martial Venerable dared to enter Qiguang City, Shu Feng would ensure he would never leave.

Shu Feng thought with a hint of regret, ’If he won’t come to me, then I’ll just have to go to him.’

The Cyan Demon Sea was home to countless powerful Sea Monsters. For the Sea Demon Association to dominate a part of it, they naturally had to be skilled. Given the choice, Shu Feng would have preferred to lure them ashore to eliminate them, as it would involve fewer unknown factors.

"Hm?"

Suddenly, Shu Feng’s ears twitched as he caught the distant sounds of battle.

"Master, we’re in trouble! Mo Hu of the Twelve Giant Demons is leading an attack with Demon Chicken, Demon Bull, Demon Sheep, Demon Pig, and Demon Dog!"

Sun Yiluo flew into the room, his face a mask of anxiety. He leaned in and whispered in Shu Feng’s ear.

"The Twelve Giant Demons? They’re courting death. Killing them will just get me more Cultivation Resources!"

Far from being alarmed, Shu Feng was pleased. He stood up and strode outside.

Sun Yiluo followed close behind, like the most loyal of servants.

Within the City Lord’s Mansion, hundreds of Warriors from the Bi Yao Demon Sect were locked in a fierce battle with the Warriors of the Twelve Giant Demons.

"Haha! Die! Die! Die!"

Demon Pig, one of the Twelve Giant Demons, was a two-meter-tall, obese man wielding a two-meter-long Fine Steel Long Staff. With every swing, he shattered the bones of the Bi Yao Demon Sect’s Warriors.

The Bi Yao Demon Sect’s Warriors were slightly stronger than the average Warrior under the Twelve Giant Demons’ command. However, before experts like Demon Pig and Demon Chicken, they were utterly outmatched and fell back in disarray.

If not for the Bi Yao Demon Sect’s cruel punishments and strict military discipline, its Warriors would have broken long ago.

Mo Hu stood with his hands clasped behind his back, calmly watching as the other leading Giant Demons slaughtered the Warriors of the Bi Yao Demon Sect.

"How dare you come to Qiguang City and run wild! In that case, you can all die!"

An icy voice rang out from the side. A terrifying flash of a blade, like a shooting star, slashed down and swept over Demon Pig’s body.

A look of disbelief flashed in Demon Pig’s eyes as his body was sliced in two. Blood sprayed out, and his entrails spilled across the ground.

"He killed Demon Pig!"

"What a terrifying strike!"

"No wonder they call him the monster who killed Demon Rat!"

"..."

Seeing this, the four Giant Demons—Demon Chicken, Demon Bull, Demon Sheep, and Demon Dog—all took a few steps back, a look of dread in their eyes.

"So, you’re Han Feng? A peerless genius with extraordinary Talent, just as they say! Too bad you crossed the Twelve Giant Demons. Today, you die!"

A murderous glint flashed in Mo Hu’s eyes. He activated the Demon Tiger Slaughter Saint Technique, and his Profound Qi began to boil. Behind him, the phantom of a terrifying, pitch-black demon tiger materialized, radiating a vicious aura as it stared intently at Shu Feng.

"A Martial Venerable!"

"He’s an expert at the Martial Venerable Level!"

"Damn it! How could a Martial Venerable Realm expert be here?"

"..."

The moment that ferocious, terrifying demon tiger appeared, the faces of the Bi Yao Demon Sect’s Warriors all changed drastically, and their morale began to waver.
