141: Let's escape from the ghost department together

Li Yi controlled the Feixue Sword, and with the blessing of Congenital Sword Qi, the Feixue Sword was unstoppable.

He suppressed the unique sword domain of the Feixue Sword to avoid causing too much commotion. At this moment, Bone Wraith was reveling in the slaughter and didn't notice the disturbance here at all.

Bone Wraith only wanted to kill all of the Ghost Division, preferring to kill the wrong ones than let any escape.

No matter what method Li Yi used to hide, as long as the Ghost Division was completely annihilated, Bone Wraith didn't believe Li Yi could escape.

The Feixue Sword continuously cut down demons, and their bodies piled up, forming a small mountain in the blink of an eye.

The demons witnessed Li Yi's terrifying strength; no wonder he could kill the Demonic Lord's Clone. He was actually this powerful. So many of them were no match for Li Yi's single sword strike.

Being so utterly crushed by Li Yi, if this continued, it would only lead to more casualties.

On second thought, they weren't Li Yi's greatest enemies. In the current situation, there was no need to fight Li Yi to the death.

It would be better to tell Bone Wraith and let the Demonic Lord Bone Wraith deal with Li Yi. Perhaps if Li Yi was killed, those treasures could also be obtained. The Demonic Lord wouldn't care for such things; they wouldn't enter his Dharma Eye, so he naturally wouldn't mind.

If Li Yi died, wouldn't that benefit them?

Moreover, reporting him would be a meritorious deed. After the Demonic Lord dealt with Li Yi, he might even reward them, and then wealth and glory would be within their grasp.

After careful consideration, they decisively gave up fighting Li Yi to the death and twisted away to find Demonic Lord Bone Wraith.

Informing the Demonic Lord of Li Yi's movements could also avert the Ghost Division's annihilation. This was a profitable deal no matter how they looked at it.

Li Yi noticed the demons' movements; they were trying to find Bone Wraith.

Li Yi was surrounded by demons and didn't have time to stop them.

This situation was going to be difficult to handle; he had to leave quickly.

“Xiao Hei, let's go quickly,” Li Yi said to Night Crow.

“So soon? I haven't taken enough yet,” Night Crow didn't want to stop. The more she took, the more she could eat. Night Crow didn't want to stop until she had emptied the entire treasury.

“Our identities have been discovered. If we don't leave now, it'll be too late.”

Li Yi also wanted to empty the entire treasury, but there was truly no way. If they delayed any longer, once the news reached Bone Wraith, they wouldn't be able to escape even if they wanted to.

“Why are you so careless?”

Night Crow said speechlessly. Wasn't this clearly delaying her good fortune?

Li Yi frowned slightly: “What did you say?”

Night Crow realized she had said the wrong thing and quickly flattered him: “Master, I was wrong, it's all my fault.”

Li Yi was too lazy to argue with Night Crow now; leaving was the priority.

Looking around, after learning Li Yi's identity, the surrounding demons all surrounded him, not planning to let Li Yi leave. They wanted to capture Li Yi to gain favor with Bone Wraith.

Having witnessed Li Yi's strength, they dared not act rashly; it was enough to simply delay Li Yi.

“How do we run? Do you want me to make a move?”

Night Crow saw that it was difficult to escape while surrounded and considered whether to help Li Yi.

“No need. If you make a move, Bone Wraith will know immediately.”

“Alright.” Night Crow was also worried about this. As fellow Demonic Lords, once her coercion was released, Bone Wraith would surely detect it.

The Devilish Qi within Li Yi's body swelled and erupted completely. For a time, the Devilish Qi surged, engulfing the entire treasury.

All the demons, enveloped by the Devilish Qi, couldn't see their hands in front of their faces, couldn't perceive direction, and their Divine Sense was completely black.

“No! He's trying to escape!”

Realizing this was Li Yi's escape method, they quickly charged towards the direction they remembered Li Yi being in, to stop him from escaping.

However, by the time they charged over, it was already too late; Li Yi had long since vanished.

“Damn it, that human actually escaped.”

If Li Yi escaped, it would be troublesome. Who would have thought Li Yi had such an escape method? The Devilish Qi blocked all the demons' vision and Divine Sense, making it impossible to perceive which direction Li Yi had escaped from.

What should be done!

Bone Wraith noticed the commotion from the treasury. The disturbance caused by Li Yi's escape method was not small, making it difficult for Bone Wraith not to notice.

Looking in the direction of the treasury, he realized something.

“Night Crow?”

He guessed this was Night Crow's doing. Although he didn't sense Night Crow's aura, a method of this scale must be that wretched Night Crow's.

He decisively charged towards the treasury, thinking, 'I finally found you.'

Along the way, he met the demon who came to report. After learning the news, Bone Wraith's mouth curved upwards, and he rushed over, ready to capture Li Yi and Night Crow to avenge his past humiliation.

However, by the time Bone Wraith arrived, the person had long since vanished, leaving only the demons still pilfering the treasury.

“Damn it!”

“Human! Get out here!”

A roaring bellow, its sound reverberating through the clouds, echoed throughout the entire Ghost Division.

Arriving one step late, just as he had found traces of Li Yi, the cooked duck flew away. Bone Wraith was furious, even more enraged than before.

“Useless trash, you couldn't even keep a human! Useless, what good are you? All of you, die!”

Bone Wraith roared and continued the slaughter, still showing no mercy whatsoever.

“Demonic Lord, please calm your anger...”

Before the words were finished, Bone Wraith's palm descended, striking and killing him.

He slaughtered the demons like a madman, killing every demon he saw until the entire Ghost Division was wiped out.

Seeing Bone Wraith completely insane, the demons were all terrified. Who dared to stay? Anyone who ran a step too slow would die without a burial place.

Li Yi returned to his residence, packed his belongings, took all useful items, and then quickly left this place of trouble.

Just as he stepped out, ready to leave, he saw two demons hidden in the shadows jump out.

Li Yi instinctively thought they were demons attacking him and launched an attack. Halfway through, he realized it was Ghost Green and Ghost Orchid, and he stopped.

“Why are you two here? Haven't you run yet?”

Li Yi asked in surprise. Bone Wraith was slaughtering the Ghost Division, and all the demons were fleeing for their lives. Why were these two here? Weren't they running? Could it be they were waiting for him?

Night Crow smiled and whispered in Li Yi's ear: “A love debt? But, from your human perspective... it seems quite interesting.”

Li Yi: “...”

He didn't find it interesting at all, only perverse and bizarre. This was completely cross-species, alright!

“Of course we were waiting for you,” Ghost Green said unhappily.

From her tone, it was clear she had been waiting for a while.

Ghost Orchid explained: “We took your Fourth-Grade Pill for free and haven't repaid you yet. Now that the Ghost Division is facing such a crisis, its demise is inevitable. We must run quickly, otherwise, we will all be killed by the Demonic Lord. We thought, if we go with you, and take you with us, it would be a way to repay your great kindness for giving us the Fourth-Grade Pill.”

Li Yi frowned slightly. These two demons were quite loyal, unlike the other demons.

They still didn't know Li Yi's identity. Li Yi's relationship with them was still somewhat ordinary. If they knew Li Yi's true identity, he wondered how they would react.

Ghost Orchid looked at Bone Wraith, who was slaughtering in the distance, and complained: “Our Ghost Division has been loyal to the Demonic Lord for generations. I don't know what madness he's in today, to actually slaughter us. It's truly hateful!”

She then said to Li Yi: “Hey, I'm telling you, are you coming with us or not? If you don't come soon, Ghost Orchid and I will be on our way.”

Li Yi thought for a moment and said: “Then let's go together.”
