478: trade

The scene was silent for a moment, then became noisy again.

"Qin An King is here! We are saved!"

"The power of a single sword, terrifying as such!"

"Qin An King is invincible!"

"Qin An King, kill these damned demons!"

Many members of the Zhengqi Alliance cheered wildly, all feeling fortunate to have survived a disaster.

The demons, on the other hand, felt the complete opposite; their cruelty and bloodlust receded, replaced by an involuntary surge of fear.

Innumerable intelligent demons turned and rushed down into the crowd below.

Only by hiding within the crowd might they have a slim chance of survival.

The dazzling sword light reappeared, and it seemed as if purple and red blood rain was falling in mid-air!

As a phantom figure moved through the demon horde, their numbers continuously dwindled.

Whether they were Golden Realm demons or Platinum Peak demons, none could withstand a single blow from Qin Shi Lei, falling to the ground as corpses.

For these demons, Qin Shi Lei had no intention of letting his subordinates keep them as pets, showing no mercy in his attacks.

Phantom, Vajra, Golden Winged Thunder Roc, and Purple Armor Bug were all released by Qin Shi Lei to assist him in killing the enemy.

"Kill!"

The Zhengqi Alliance, which had been suppressed, also recovered and joined the encirclement to slaughter the demons.

Minutes later, the demons in mid-air had been completely annihilated.

However, hundreds of demons had taken the opportunity to sneak into the crowd below and disappeared.

"Thank you, Qin An King, for your assistance!"

Chu Ye first bowed to Qin Shi Lei in thanks, then turned and instructed his subordinate: "Elder Liu, immediately order all personnel in Zhengqi City to remain in place and not move."

"All experts of the Zhengqi Alliance will form groups of ten to search and eliminate the remaining demons!"

Chu Ye looked up, about to ask Qin Shi Lei if he had a better way to find the demons hiding in the crowd, when he saw Qin Shi Lei had already transformed into a phantom and rushed towards an Evolution practitioner below.

A cold light flashed, and that Evolution practitioner was split in half by Qin Shi Lei's sword.

The Evolution practitioner fell to the ground, transforming into a terrifying-looking demon.

Qin Shi Lei's figure was erratic, moving through various streets and rooms on the ground, quickly finding and slaying demons one by one.

"Stop!"

A demon with a long tail, clutching an Evolution practitioner in each hand, threatened loudly: "Don't come any closer, or I'll kill them immediately."

A figure suddenly appeared behind him, a silver light flashed, and the demon's enormous head flew into the sky.

Before Qin Shi Lei, who possessed instantaneous movement, this demon still tried to threaten with hostages; it was simply wishful thinking.

The demons hiding in the shadows could no longer sit still, rushing out from their hiding places and fleeing into the distance again.

This would only accelerate their demise.

In less than three minutes, under Qin Shi Lei's Eye of Illusion Breaking Purple, all nearby demons were rooted out and killed.

He once again took out the Mountain and Rivers Map and infused it with vital energy.

He found that there were still two red dots and eighteen green dots rapidly moving away from Zhengqi City.

Presumably, these were demons with extraordinary life-saving and escape methods, able to escape two to three hundred kilometers unnoticed.

"Chu Alliance Master, the demons in this direction and that direction are yours."

Qin Shi Lei pointed to the green dots in two directions on the Mountain and Rivers Map and said to Chu Ye.

Then he turned and pursued the two red dots.

After circling, Anthony and a Platinum Peak succubus flew towards the Space Rift with grim expressions.

They had already used all sorts of potential-stimulating methods, hoping to escape to the Space Rift before that terrifying human caught up.

Upon first arriving on Blue Star, Anthony had been full of ambition.

He never expected to be fleeing like a stray dog less than half an hour after arriving on Blue Star.

Seeing that they could successfully escape back to the Abyss World in another three minutes of flying, Anthony and his companion felt a glimmer of hope.

Suddenly, a silver light pursued them from behind.

Anthony's expression drastically changed, and he quickly activated a life-saving item at his waist.

Just as the sword light was about to split him in half, his figure instantly vanished from its original spot.

The succubus, however, did not possess such a precious life-saving technique; although she tried her best to evade and threw out several defensive items, her left hand was still severed by a single sword strike.

"Ah!"

The succubus shrieked and fell to the ground.

After rolling a few times, the succubus did not get up and flee immediately; instead, she perfectly displayed her proud body.

"Powerful human, I am willing to become your slave. I hope you will spare my life!"

The succubus's voice was sweet and cloying, making one's blood surge and desires rise upon hearing it.

Although Qin Shi Lei's composure was astonishing, he was still made somewhat restless by the other party's seductive actions.

If it had been a year ago, encountering such a legendary species—a succubus—he would certainly have been interested in experiencing her methods of seduction.

However, after the incident with Mary, Qin Shi Lei's curiosity in this regard had significantly lessened.

Moreover, with time being of the essence, he quickly reined in his emotions.

With a wave of his hand, a sharp sword qi was unleashed, instantly splitting the succubus in half.

He moved his body and once again pursued Anthony.

He quickly closed the distance to within a few kilometers of the other party.

Anthony understood that he had no chance of successfully escaping into the Space Rift, so he turned and shouted loudly at Qin Shi Lei.

"Strong human, how about we make a deal?"

Qin Shi Lei slowly stopped dozens of meters away from him, watching him with interest.

Seeing that Qin Shi Lei did not kill him immediately, Anthony's hope instantly rose.

"I am the son of Lord Andrei of the Abyss World. If you let me go, I can be your inside man in the Abyss World, providing you with intelligence about the Abyss World, and I can even devise schemes to trap and kill powerful individuals from the Abyss. Keeping me alive will surely bring you greater rewards than killing me."

Qin Shi Lei was immediately somewhat moved.

Killing the other party would at most yield a gold treasure chest, whereas keeping him could allow him to understand the Abyss World better.

Qin Shi Lei said calmly: "It's not impossible to spare your life, but how can I trust you? And what useful information can you provide me?"

Anthony said fawningly: "We in the Abyss have a secret technique. As long as we form a master-servant contract, you can easily control my life and death, so you don't have to fear my betrayal.

Currently, Platinum Realm experts can pass through the Space Rift. As time goes on, Diamond Realm and even King Realm demons will also be able to come to Blue Star through the Space Rift. I presume you know very little about our Abyss World, while I know the Abyss World like the back of my hand.

As the saying goes, 'know yourself and your enemy, and you will win a hundred battles.' Keeping me will surely bring you unexpected benefits."

Qin Shi Lei said indifferently: "First, give me a good introduction to your Abyss World."
