CHAPTER 427: CHAPTER 79 SURROUND AND KILL_2

The three of them had been tracking a unit of the True Demon Clan for some time. Feeling the distance was now close enough, they abruptly launched an attack.

As prodigies of the Crystal Clan, although they were not the absolute finest, they considered themselves among the most distinguished and believed they could swiftly handle the True Demons. However, the outcome greatly exceeded their expectations.

CLANG!

Jing Wen’s sword hand faltered. The Immortal Sword, capable of severing Immortal Mine, plunged straight into the ground as a saber slashed towards her, a shimmer of light flashing in her eyes in that instant.

Fortunately, Jing Qiang, realizing Jing Wen’s peril, killed his opponent despite his own grievous wounds and barely managed to deflect the attack.

Jing Wenshu retreated as well. He looked at Jing Qiang, whose hands were covered in blood, and at Jing Wen, who was so frightened her legs had given out. With a grim expression, he said, "We miscalculated. I didn’t expect these True Demon Clan members to be so powerful. Let’s withdraw for now."

"Withdraw? You think you can escape?"

Two True Demon Clan figures appeared on a large tree behind them—it was a trap.

"Very nice. One against two and still able to slay one of our warriors. You’ll make excellent prey."

Surrounded by five members of the True Demon Clan, Jing Wenshu tensed inwardly and sighed lightly. "Jing Qiang, Jing Wen, it looks like we’ll have to fight for our lives this time."

"Then let’s fight for our lives," Jing Qiang said, his expression unchanging.

Despite the fear in her eyes, Jing Wen rose determinedly. "I’m not scared."

From the bushes, Yang Huan watched the trio surrounded by the True Demon Clan, a gleam of pleasant surprise in his eyes. To think I’d stumble upon such good fortune! Could it be that the Heavenly Dao itself thinks I’m too weak and wants to grant me some battle merits?

His hands moved quickly, and a miniature Glazed Cannon appeared in his grasp.

Unlike ordinary meter-tall cannons, this custom model was only a dozen centimeters high. It was also rapid-firing—a treasured piece meticulously crafted by Da Bai.

Perhaps because he believed the Crystal Clan trio had no escape, the True Demon Clan member who appeared to be their leader watched the fight with an arrogant air, arms crossed. This gave Yang Huan an opportunity.

Aiming the cannon at this leader, Yang Huan suddenly recalled a phrase: "Acts of pretentiousness attract calamity."

Although I don’t have lightning, I can still give you a little warning with a drug.

A pink Elixir flashed by, rapidly merging into the True Demon Clan leader’s body.

Yang Huan’s Elixirs were also custom-made, faster acting and more potent. If it weren’t for the scarcity of materials needed for Refining the Yin Yang Immortal Pill, Yue Meng would have even made a genuine Elixir bomb.

The True Demon Clan leader, still watching with his arms crossed, suddenly felt something was wrong. His mind flooded with an overwhelming urge to strip his own kinsmen bare. He quickly shook his head. What am I thinking?

Wave after wave of desire surged from deep within him, his once-clear eyes turning bloodshot. The leader suddenly remembered a rumor that circulated among his people.

It was said that in a forest at the fringes, there resided a Cultivator of weak capabilities but highly skilled in administering drugs. Anyone who entered that forest would fall prey, their chastity lost for life.

Just before he completely lost consciousness, the leader was filled with regret. If only I could turn back time!

The leader was worthy of his title. Even having lost his reason, with a single palm strike, he slammed the nearest True Demon Clan member into the ground, cracking the earth on impact. Yang Huan unconsciously clenched his teeth. That hit must have been vicious!

This sudden turn of events stunned the Crystal Clan trio and the remaining three True Demon Clan members.

"Leader, what’s wrong with you?"

"Hsss... Mine, all mine," foul-smelling drool dripped from the corner of his mouth as the leader rapidly attacked the remaining three True Demon Clan members, completely ignoring the Crystal Clan trio.

"What just happened?" Jing Wen asked in shock and confusion.

"Whatever it is, let’s leave first," Jing Wenshu said gravely.

"Okay."

The trio had not gone far when they heard humiliating, pitiful cries filled with indomitable anger and fury. Even Jing Wen, who had barely escaped death at the hands of the True Demon Clan, couldn’t help but feel a tinge of sympathy.

"Don’t dwell on it," Jing Wenshu advised. "We need to tend to our wounds. The presence of so many True Demon Clan members suggests a significant force or objective in this area. We might find resources here to help us recover."

「...」

Despite the cringeworthy scene unfolding before him, Yang Huan, not wanting to miss the perfect opportunity, forced himself to watch, his eyes reddened.

After an unknown period, following a final low roar, the True Demon Clan leader collapsed stiffly to the ground. Clarity began to return to his eyes.

CRACK!

Before his consciousness fully returned, Yang Huan decapitated him. Looking at the dazed eyes on the severed head, Yang Huan shook his own. I’m still too kind.

As for the other four True Demon Clan members, they had already been crippled by their leader during his rampage. Far from being able to resist, they were lucky to still be breathing.

Decapitating them one by one, a white Law Crystal appeared in Yang Huan’s hand. A smile touched his calm face. This was easy. But I owe it all to Da Bai and Yue Meng. I should see if I can kill some more and share the spoils with them later.

「...」

ROAR!

The Deputy General, clad in Heavy Armor, desperately suppressed the desires raging within him. Looking at his subordinates, now utterly out of control, he swung the great axe in his hands downwards, instantly splitting one of them in two.

"To think you would use such Lower-grade tricks to insult my True Demon Clan! You all deserve to die!"

The sixteen-foot-long Big Axe swung wildly through the air. Heads soared into the sky, only to be instantly minced into a bloody pulp by the wind of the axe.

Karen forcibly restrained his lust-driven trusted aide, his face utterly grim. "Now I understand why that good-for-nothing was willing to kneel before me, so desperate for revenge. Such despicable tactics."
