Chapter 1481: Chapter 1394: Slaying the Demon
"Roar! Ignorant of life and death!"
The Wolf Head Man saw the two from Xuantian Sect still trying to fight him and let out a sinister laugh. The massive wolf head suddenly opened its maw, almost ready to swallow the two on the spot.
However, at that moment, a flash of sword light appeared.
"Swish!"
The wolf’s mouth only opened halfway before it stopped abruptly.
The next second, the massive wolf head fell neatly from the body.
The enormous wolf body also collapsed to the ground with a boom.
On the faces of those who survived by the skin of their teeth appeared an expression of disbelief. Yet, looking at the wolf’s corpse lying askew on the ground with blood gushing out from its neck, they couldn’t help but sit down heavily, gasping for air.
Ye Guichen walked forward.
The three people knew it was Ye Guichen who had helped them. They struggled to get up, wanting to bow to Ye Guichen.
Ye Guichen smiled lightly, "No need for courtesy."
He walked to the wolf’s body, dug out the demon’s inner core, and, like popping a candy, threw it directly into his mouth and started crunching it.
Seeing this scene, the three were stunned.
They all knew how hard a demon’s inner core was, fearing that even weapons couldn’t cut through it.
But now, it was being bitten to pieces by this person in front of them.
If they hadn’t seen it with their own eyes, they would have thought Ye Guichen ate a fake demon core.
"Are you from Xuantian Sect?" Ye Guichen asked while chewing the demon core, addressing the older-looking man among them.
The man appeared to be in his thirties and was heavily injured, his breath unstable.
"That’s right, we are disciples of Xuantian Sect." Lu Ming barely stood up and introduced his companions, "This is my junior sister Qi Fang, this is my junior brother Chen Yuan, and the one bitten to death by the Demon Wolf was named Chen Feng."
Looking at Chen Feng’s corpse, a trace of regret flashed in Lu Ming’s eyes, and he sighed deeply.
Ye Guichen nodded, "What exactly happened?"
"Senior, to be honest, the current situation at the border is far beyond our expectations." Then, Lu Ming roughly recounted the course of events.
It turned out that more and more members of the Demon Clan were gathering in the Northern North Desolation, and there even appeared to be great demons comparable to the Golden Core Realm.
Although those great demons were also of half-demon bodies, their strength was not inferior to the real Demon Clan.
The Spiritual Sense of half-demons was not weaker than human cultivators. After learning about the actions of the Daqian Dynasty, they no longer sent demon beasts to attack humans but sent some half-demons to bypass Daqian Dynasty’s army, waiting for opportunities to harass and even secretly infiltrated into the Daqian Dynasty to hunt experts.
The four of them inadvertently received this news, intending to return and inform everyone at Xuantian Sect to take extra precautions, but unexpectedly were discovered by the Demon Clan, who then dispatched a Wolf Demon to hunt them down.
Although all four had cultivation beyond the Foundation Establishment Realm, their strength was not strong.
Facing one against four, they nearly died at the hands of the Wolf Demon.
"Senior, thank you for saving our lives!" The three cupped their hands and bowed to Ye Guichen.
Lu Ming further said, "Senior, we at Xuantian Sect will surely not forget this great kindness, but now time is urgent, and we must quickly deliver the message back. If possible, could you give us your name so that once things settle, we can personally go to express our gratitude?"
Ye Guichen waved his hand, "That’s not necessary. In that case, you should hurry and leave."
Ye Guichen was not interested in their gratitude.
But hearing their words, the Demon Clan was incredibly cunning, actually targeting human experts for assassination.
If that’s truly the case, even if the Daqian Dynasty’s army arrives at the border, it wouldn’t be of much use.
"Alright, I have to hurry too." Ye Guichen prepared to reach the border quickly, perhaps even directly leading an army of a hundred thousand into the Northern North Desolation to wipe out the Demon Clan.
Seeing Ye Guichen heading toward the border, Lu Ming hurriedly asked, "Senior, where are you going?"
"The border."
"There are many demon beasts there, what are you going there for?" Although Lu Ming hadn’t clearly seen how Ye Guichen killed the Wolf Demon, being able to decapitate the Wolf Demon with one strike, even if it was a sneak attack, meant his cultivation wasn’t weak.
If they could team up to fight the Demon Clan, their strength would increase significantly.
Ye Guichen chuckled, "To fight the Demon Clan, of course."
"You’re going to fight the Demon Clan?" Lu Ming was overjoyed, "May I ask which sect or school you are from, Senior? How many people have you brought this time?"
In Lu Ming’s view, Ye Guichen was definitely a master from some sect, surely not coming alone.
If so, then naturally, he should ask clearly to report back to Xuantian Sect.
Ye Guichen said, "I am unaffiliated. If you don’t leave soon, you might not be able to leave at all."
"What do you mean?" Lu Ming asked, his face turning queer.
Ye Guichen sighed.
Originally planning to quickly reach the border and first join with the army of a hundred thousand, it seemed those from the Demon Clan didn’t intend to let him go.
Before Lu Ming and the others could comprehend Ye Guichen’s words, several roars came from a distance.
Moments later, three huge figures appeared in front of them, coming from afar.
One tiger, one bear, one wolf—once they came closer, their forms suddenly shifted into human shapes.
Seeing this, Lu Ming and the others’ faces turned pale.
These three half-demons all had strength at the Foundation Establishment Peak, and the Tiger Demon even faintly showed the strength of a Half-step Golden Core.
The three demons glanced at the decapitated Wolf Demon, letting out low growls.
The Tiger Demon’s eyes flashed with contempt, "Unexpectedly, you killed our companion. Haha, today you four will die!"
