Chapter 1633: Chapter 951: Who Else?!
Feeling the spiritual power fluctuations from these people nearby, Yang Xiao knew that today’s battle was inevitable. He didn’t rashly reveal his identity to intimidate them; he understood that the most direct and effective way to truly subdue these people was to defeat them first.
Honestly speaking, these guys aren’t weak. Sick Ghost, Butterfly Lady, Butcher, and Giant Hammer Lolita, all have a level close to Mid-stage Ghost Level. As for Desire Demon, Illusionist, and the Night Watchman, they are actual Mid-stage Ghost-level Apostles, their spiritual power strength significantly surpassing Yang Xiao, who has just stepped into the Mid-stage Ghost Level.
Especially that night watchman, who is already close to the Upper Ghost Level.
The remaining monk and Taoist are even more extraordinary. The monk has the strength of Upper Ghost Level, and as for the old Taoist who always meditates with eyes closed, he possesses strength close to the Peak of Ghost Level, the strongest among everyone present, even stronger than the assassin Taoist who was stabbed to death by Chief Wu.
"What? Want to all come at me together?" Sensing someone building up power, Yang Xiao asked with a smile.
To be honest, if these guys attacked together, it would indeed be troublesome. But if he couldn’t hold on, there was no need to stubbornly persist. He still had the Soul-Capturing Mirror to rely on.
Just as the Desire Demon, who harbored delusions about Yang Xiao, was about to make a move, the meditating old Taoist suddenly shouted, "Don’t forget the rules the man set for us!"
With these words, the situation changed instantly. Yang Xiao astutely noticed the change in everyone’s expressions, clearly showing fear.
"If you want to fight, it has to be one-on-one; no one else is allowed to interfere," the old Taoist shouted again.
Now Yang Xiao somewhat understood; this rule must have been set by the experts from the Patrol Defense Office; it couldn’t be anyone else. Most likely, it was Chief Wu. The nickname "Overlord Spear" indeed made these Evil Cultivators not dare to breathe.
"Let me!" Desire Demon couldn’t hold back any longer, just about to make a move, when Yang Xiao stopped him.
"I don’t want to kill anyone. If you bow down and apologize by kneeling, and then break one arm and one leg yourself, I’ll let you go as if you were nothing," Yang Xiao said.
"What did you say?!" Desire Demon was stunned for a moment, then flew into a fury.
As soon as these words came out, not only was Desire Demon dumbfounded, but the other renowned Evil Cultivators present were also taken aback, wondering if this kid was scared out of his mind.
Even the meditating old Taoist couldn’t help but lift his eyelids to take a good look at Yang Xiao.
"This person... is very strong," the strange monk wearing a wooden mask whispered.
"When I catch you, I’ll surely make you realize my power. I’ll make you scream all night!" Desire Demon shrieked, pulling out his Magic Artifact, and attacked Yang Xiao. At the same time, the peculiar color from the pants spread, his steps becoming unpredictable, almost leaving afterimages.
Desire Demon didn’t plan to waste time with Yang Xiao; he started with two Magic Artifacts. He didn’t care about Yang Xiao’s face as long as he could capture his body.
Besides, this person embarrassed him in front of so many people; he had to regain face, or how could he maintain his footing?
Yang Xiao stood motionless as if he couldn’t see the opponent at all. Just as Desire Demon charged in front of Yang Xiao, a green light suddenly exploded in front of him.
When the onlookers recovered from the glaring green light, they were all shocked by the scene before them. On the ground laid a mess of blood and flesh, resembling a path to immortality paved with flesh and blood. And at the end of the path, Yang Xiao stood with his back turned, holding a knife in his left hand and a human head in his right.
The human head still maintained a half-closed eye posture, as if it hadn’t recovered from the green light.
"Six... six items!" the strange monk couldn’t help but exclaim. Others couldn’t see it, but he could see that at that moment, this kid almost simultaneously activated the powers of six Magic Artifacts.
A Green Lantern, a mirror, an oddly shaped short stick, a bell, a bamboo stick, and... that knife!
The next second, Yang Xiao threw out the head, and it rolled all the way to the feet of the wide-eyed old Taoist, who instinctively stepped back in shock.
Yang Xiao knew that he was the leader of this group.
He was targeting the leader.
Yang Xiao took a deep breath and finally had the chance to shout out the line he had kept in his heart for over twenty years.
"Any—body—else?!"
He had always been involved in high-level battles before, but this time, fighting an Apostle of the same level gave Yang Xiao a great thrill.
