31: Kill the demon and attack outside the city

"Demon-Human!"

Xie Weilou looked at the monster that rushed in.

This was a Taoist priest, his eyes blood-red, his face ferocious, with sharp fangs, and his neck covered in bloody scales. A strange demonic aura emanated from him, appearing somewhat tyrannical and bloodthirsty.

This could not be considered a true demon, but rather a Demon-Human.

This world is vast beyond measure.

Great Xia is just one small corner of it.

North of Great Xia lies the Demon Kingdom.

Within the Demon Kingdom, demon races run rampant, and often demon races will invade Great Xia's territory from the south. Each invasion by the demon race causes immense destruction.

Great Xia has been resisting the demon race for a long time.

Great Xia has a prohibition: within Great Xia's borders, the demon race is forbidden. Any demon race discovered must be slain.

And to the west of Great Xia is the West Chu Dynasty. West Chu colludes with the demon race and has developed many Demon-Humans through demonic energy.

Although Demon-Humans are not as terrifying as pure demon races, they should not be underestimated. Even an ordinary person, once transformed into a Demon-Human, will possess a certain level of power that ordinary soldiers definitely cannot withstand.

This is also why West Chu is keen on developing Demon-Humans; as long as there are common people, they will have an endless army of Demon-Humans.

Zhenxi Marquis Manor has fought many battles with West Chu's Demon-Humans, paying a heavy price.

Now, the appearance of Demon-Humans in Qingyuan Taoist Temple is certainly no accident.

"Roar!"

The Demon-Human in front of him let out a roar. He held a Taoist sword, his face ferocious and bloodthirsty, and he suddenly swung his sword to strike at Xie Weilou.

"......"

Xie Weilou glanced indifferently at the Demon-Human, his figure flashed, and he instantly appeared beside the opponent. He grabbed the opponent's neck and then squeezed hard.

The Demon-Human's neck was immediately snapped, his head flew high, and blood gushed from his headless body.

Xie Weilou flew out.

Outside the hall, hundreds of Demon-Humans appeared. Some were Taoist priests, others were ordinary commoners. All of them had ferocious faces, blood-red eyes, and demonic energy emanating from their bodies.

"Roar!"

Hundreds of Demon-Humans simultaneously lunged at Xie Weilou, like starved beasts that had suddenly discovered delicious prey, eager to devour it alive.

The strength of these Demon-Humans was not strong; there wasn't even a single Territory Expansion Realm among them.

"Die!"

Xie Weilou stretched out his hand and casually squeezed, and a terrifying force erupted.

Boom!

Hundreds of Demon-Humans instantly turned into a bloody mist, and the ground was stained red with blood.

"A bit of strength."

On the pavilion in front, two old Taoist priests instantly appeared. Their eyes were cold, and the demonic aura on their bodies was even more intense, far beyond what Demon-Humans could compare to.

These were two pure demons.

Xie Weilou looked at the four old Taoist priests expressionlessly and said calmly, "Two Tuojiang Realm Late Stage demons, quite impressive."

The two old Taoists grinned ferociously, and a thick mist emanated from their bodies as their forms rapidly changed.

A gigantic blood-colored wolf appeared. It let out a wolf howl, and the sky instantly turned blood-red, with blood-light covering the entire Taoist Temple.

At the same time, a pitch-black python appeared. It was twenty meters long, its body coiled on the pavilion, its gaping maw open, and corrosive liquid dripping from its sharp fangs.

"Kill him."

The snake demon's eyes were blood-red, and it spoke in human tongue. The demonic aura on its body was even more intense, and with a movement of its body, dense cracks appeared on the pavilion.

"Roar!"

The wolf demon roared, its body flashed, and it instantly appeared above Xie Weilou.

Its gigantic wolf paw slammed down, carrying terrifying pressure. This single slap could shatter the entire courtyard.

"......"

Xie Weilou waved his sleeve, and burial flower sword appeared before him. He gripped the long sword.

Clang!

The moment the wolf demon's paw slammed down, a cold glint flashed in Xie Weilou's eyes. burial flower sword was unsheathed, and a chilling sword qi erupted, cleaving open the blood-colored sky.

Whoosh!

His body instantly appeared behind the wolf demon.

Drip.

Xie Weilou stood above, and blood dripped from burial flower sword.

The wolf demon's body trembled, its pupils constricting.

Thud.

The next second, its head flew high, blood gushed out like a geyser, and the headless corpse fell to the ground, causing the ground to shake. Blood surged outwards, and the ice and snow continuously melted, followed by an explosion, and flesh and blood splattered.

"Roar!"

The snake demon saw the wolf demon being suppressed and killed, yet it felt no fear. Instead, it grew even more enraged, its eyes incredibly bloodthirsty. Its massive body shook, and its thick tail slammed violently towards Xie Weilou.

"......"

Xie Weilou gripped the long sword, and his body vanished from its original spot.

When he reappeared, he was already on top of the wolf demon's head. He stomped his foot on the snake demon's head, and the powerful force directly slammed the snake demon downwards.

The snake demon let out a roar, its large mouth opening, and it bit towards Xie Weilou.

"Slash!"

Xie Weilou did not dodge. Instead, he unleashed a sword strike, and a pitch-black, hundred-meter sword qi erupted, instantly striking the snake demon's large mouth.

Boom!

The sword qi slashed down, the snake demon's large mouth was split open, its sharp teeth broke, blood gushed out, and half of its head was directly severed.

Xie Weilou made a sword gesture with one hand, and burial flower sword shot out, circling the snake demon's neck once.

Rip!

Sword qi burst forth, the snake demon's neck was severed, and its body split into two. Blood gushed out, and the headless body twisted continuously on the ground, smashing a surrounding hall.

Zheng!

burial flower sword flew into its sheath, emitting a clear chime. A fierce sword qi erupted from the snake demon's body, and its body instantly exploded, flesh scattering, completely dead.

Xie Weilou casually waved his hand, and two demon cores appeared in his palm. He muttered to himself, "It's time to go back to sleep."

Having said that, he flew away.

------

Outside the city.

Three li away.

Xie Weilou walked alone on the snowy ground. He slowly stopped, his brow raised. A group of black-clad figures, about thirty or so, appeared in front of him.

"It's you!"

Xie Weilou looked at one of them. Although the person was masked, he recognized those eyes; it was precisely the Middle-aged General from Zhenxi Marquis Manor.

These black-clad figures came from Zhenxi Marquis Manor. To be precise, they were all Xie Cangxuan's people.

By his calculations, Xie Cangxuan should have returned by now.

His son had an arm severed; that old fellow couldn't possibly remain indifferent.

"Young Master, I'm sorry."

The Middle-aged General's eyes were cold, filled with a strong killing intent.

Within Zhenxi Marquis Manor, they naturally dared not act rashly against Xie Weilou, but out here, they had no such qualms.

Xie Cangxuan had returned, and after learning what happened at Zhenxi Marquis Manor, he was extremely furious, even blaming them for not intervening to save Wu Ji.

This time, Xie Cangxuan ordered them to deal with Xie Weilou to atone for their failure, and they naturally dared not refuse.

"......"

Xie Weilou's expression was indifferent.

"Kill him."

The Middle-aged General immediately waved his hand, and thirty-odd people instantly lunged at Xie Weilou, swords and blades flashing, radiating murderous intent.

"Die!"

A bloody light flickered in Xie Weilou's eyes, and he waved his sleeve.

Boom!

Snow and ice splattered, like a cold flash, suddenly striking down on these black-clad figures.

"Ah......"

A series of shrill screams rang out, and thirty-odd black-clad figures instantly turned into a bloody mist.

"What?"

Upon seeing this, the Middle-aged General's pupils constricted, and his eyes revealed a look of horror.

Xie Weilou was born with crippled bones, destined to be without a path in martial arts, but at this moment, what did he see?

"Your turn."

Xie Weilou instantly appeared before the Middle-aged General.

"......"

The Middle-aged General dared not think further and immediately drew his saber, only to find that the saber in his hand was restrained by a powerful force, utterly unable to be drawn. This sent a chill down his spine.

Xie Weilou reached out and grabbed the Middle-aged General's neck, lifting him directly. He said indifferently, "Can't even draw your saber?"

The Middle-aged General immediately felt suffocated, all his strength completely suppressed. His expression was terrified, and he stammered, "Young Master, I was wrong... please, don't... don't kill me..."

Boom!

Xie Weilou squeezed hard, and the Middle-aged General's body instantly exploded, turning into a bloody mist, utterly dead.

"If you're wrong, you die. What's the use of begging for mercy?"

Xie Weilou said indifferently and continued walking forward.
