501: The enemy is revealed

Less than half an hour later, Mu Ziping suddenly pointed at the Mountain and Rivers Map and said, "Your Highness, there's a small green dot rapidly approaching this city."

"Go." Qin Shilei immediately took them into his Blessed Land and quickly teleported towards the city on the map.

In less than three minutes, Qin Shilei had arrived above the green marker.

Looking down, a burly Evolution user was arrogantly walking down the street, riding a massive Wind Demon Wolf.

That Wind Demon Wolf was a Golden Beast of two stars.

"@#￥#￥@"

Qin Shilei couldn't help but curse.

The Mountain and Rivers Map could only choose to display humans or Golden Beasts. When displaying Golden Beasts, it was impossible to distinguish whether a green dot was an Evolution user's pet.

This greatly increased the difficulty for Qin Shilei to determine if a green marker was the culprit.

With a wave of his hand, Qin Shilei struck the arrogant Evolution user on the street with lightning, knocking him to the ground.

The man, nearly scorched, rolled into a nearby building, looked up at the sky, but found no enemy.

"I haven't done anything bad recently, so why was I struck by lightning?" the unlucky fellow thought to himself.

Qin Shilei returned to where he had been, letting Mu Ziping continue to monitor the Mountain and Rivers Map.

Night fell, and time quickly reached midnight.

Mu Ziping pointed at the Mountain and Rivers Map and once again called out to Qin Shilei, "Your Highness, dozens of green markers have appeared again, moving rapidly towards Auerborg."

Qin Shilei's spirits lifted. "It's so late, and there are still Golden Beasts heading into the city. These are very likely the culprits."

After speaking, he quickly took Mu Ziping and the others into his Blessed Land, then transformed into a bolt of lightning and flew towards Auerborg.

When he arrived at Auerborg, he found a group of Evolution users lying on the city wall.

A quick scan revealed that those Evolution users were already corpses.

"Watch me this time; I'll catch you all."

Qin Shilei quickly flew into the city.

Along the way, he found that the sleeping Evolution users had all lost their vital signs.

He flew several kilometers before discovering a living creature.

The phantom-like creature below was precisely the Soul-Devouring Demon that had once appeared in Lingquan City.

A Soul-Devouring Demon of Silver Realm.

Qin Shilei looked up into the distance and saw countless Soul-Devouring Demons below, hunting humans.

His gaze suddenly sharpened as he noticed several solid figures.

Illusion Demon: A demon from the Abyss World skilled in illusion, it likes to drag sleeping creatures into illusions in the dead of night.

"Illusion Demons combined with Soul-Devouring Demons, no wonder Lair Duchy was silently annihilated."

Qin Shilei suddenly understood.

However, he did not immediately act to destroy the Soul-Devouring Demons and Illusion Demons below.

Because their numbers were too great, if some demons managed to escape, they would still threaten the safety of Great Xia.

Qin Shilei quietly retreated. Outside the demons' detection range, he opened his Blessed Land and released Mu Ziping and the others.

When he suspected the culprits might be Soul-Devouring Demons, he had already gathered a large number of lightning- and light-attribute ability users skilled at dealing with such demons.

"Everyone, split up and surround this city. Not a single demon must be allowed to escape."

Qin Shilei instructed his subordinates.

"Yes, sir!"

Thousands of figures instantly flew in all directions, surrounding Auerborg from every angle... A few kilometers in front of Qin Shilei, Arons swallowed the soul in his palm, a look of ecstasy on his face.

At this moment, hundreds more Soul-Devouring Demons brought him a fresh batch of newly produced souls.

Arons, however, was not in a hurry to enjoy these souls. Instead, he pulled out a jar and collected all of them.

He murmured, "This Qin An King truly cannot monitor low-level demons. This time, I will definitely cause a huge uproar within Great Xia's sphere of influence."

A careful demon had discovered that once a Platinum Realm demon entered Great Xia's sphere of influence, it would quickly be ganged up on and killed.

However, low-level demons had a chance to sneak in.

Upon learning this information, Arons immediately expended great effort to summon a large number of Soul-Devouring Demons and Illusion Demons below Platinum, even his own avatar only possessed Golden Beast peak strength.

Indeed, it allowed him to easily massacre two cities in Lair.

Now, a day had passed, and everything was calm. That hateful Qin An King still hadn't appeared, indicating that his calculations were accurate.

As long as today passed, and he went tens of thousands of kilometers deeper, he could continue to encroach upon the Qin An Royal Mansion's territory.

The thought of Qin Shilei watching his subordinates die in large numbers, yet being helpless, made Arons feel exceptionally pleased.

He did not realize, however, that the city he was in had already been surrounded, and he had become a turtle in a jar.

"Let's make our move too."

Qin Shilei turned to An Qian and Mary and said.

The three summoned their pets, then transformed into three phantoms and flew forward.

Innumerable dazzling silver lights suddenly flashed in the dark night.

The demons on the street were instantly blasted into charcoal.

The supremely powerful lightning also woke the demons who had rushed into the buildings.

"Run!" The demons scattered and fled, shouting warnings as they went.

Although these demons hadn't seen who or how many enemies there were, facing lightning, their natural enemy, they wisely chose to flee.

"Trying to escape? Too late."

Qin Shilei swiftly swept over the demons from above, rapidly collecting them all into his Blessed Land.

Although he could easily destroy these demons, their numbers were simply too vast. He couldn't annihilate them all at once, so he had to use the Blessed Land to ensure not a single demon escaped.

Once the demons were collected into the Blessed Land, they could not escape death. They would instantly be blasted into dust by the naturally generated lightning within the Thunder Mountain.

After dealing with all the demons awakened by the Devouring Thunder, Qin Shilei continued to fly forward.

Another clap of thunder once again startled countless demons.

These newly appeared demons vanished into thin air again within a mere ten seconds.

When he unleashed the third clap of thunder, a piercing shriek echoed through the sky.

All demons within a ten-kilometer radius were awakened.

Then, countless more sharp shrieks rang out, and the demons throughout the entire city completely erupted into chaos.

They abandoned the delicious souls they were about to enjoy, transforming into streaks of shadows, and fled towards the outskirts of the city.

At this moment, Arons, who was hiding in the shadows, finally realized that his and his subordinates' whereabouts had been exposed.

"If the covert approach doesn't work, then let's go overt!"

Arons sneered, then flew out of the building, shouting fiercely, "My lads, it's party time! Kill them!"

His voice boomed, echoing through the sky and reaching the ears of all the demons in the city.

When he chose this city as a target, he had specifically had his subordinates confuse several humans to ascertain that the strongest individual in this city was only Golden Beast peak.

Such strength was not even worth his attention.

Although the number of demons was not as great as the humans in the city, Soul-Devouring Demons and Illusion Demons possessed Weird (guǐyì - strange/ Weird) methods. Therefore, Arons believed his side would surely defeat the humans.

He did not know, however, that his loud shout had completely exposed him.

"Arons, we meet again!"

Suddenly, a silver light shot from afar, and then a familiar voice rang in Arons's ears.
