107: I've wanted to kill you for a long time!
The Demon Suppression Envoys who participated in the battle between the Demon Suppression Division and the Demonic Cult that night were naturally familiar with the demonized individual before them.
Although he was somewhat different from that third-rank demonic overlord, both had undergone demonization.
The Blood Demon Puppet raised his eyes, his emotionless, cold vertical pupils sweeping over everyone, then he took an explosive step directly in front of Li Shengyuan and Ye Hangzhou, standing respectfully.
The Blood Demon Puppet had no thoughts of his own but would actively approach the person who controlled him.
As the grand array was controlled by Ye Hangzhou, the mark within the Blood Demon Puppet's body also fell into Ye Hangzhou's hands.
Li Shengyuan chuckled as he patted the nearly three-zhang tall, extremely robust Blood Demon Puppet.
He smiled at Blood Puppet Venerable, whose face was ashen and uglier than if he had eaten excrement, saying:
“This puppet is indeed good. To be able to raise a puppet's strength to the third rank, you must have expended a lot of energy and resources, right? You’re quite impressive!”
“May you die a horrible death!”
Blood Puppet Venerable was so enraged he almost spat blood. Refining this Blood Demon Puppet had not only consumed resources; he had practically spent most of his life on the Blood Demon Puppet.
If not for the Blood Demon Puppet being heavily wounded and needing to be closely bound to him and the array for recovery, how could he have been snatched?
Having a third-rank puppet made Blood Puppet Venerable immensely proud, and it also gave him a very unusual status within the Demonic Cult.
However, a battle with Qin Yang three years ago not only left him heavily wounded, almost costing him his life.
His beloved Blood Demon Puppet was also almost completely destroyed. Since then, Blood Puppet Venerable had completely vanished from the martial world, hiding to cultivate.
The Blood Demon Puppet was brought by him to the Northern Territory and hidden in the Giant Spirit Hall, which had been cooperating with the Demonic Cult for some time, to recover from his injuries.
He himself made a deal with the Giant Spirit Hall, refining pills for them to help them increase their strength.
In return, the Giant Spirit Hall provided him and the Blood Demon Puppet with blood food.
This included ordinary people, as well as experts from various sects; even people from the Giant Spirit Hall would be used as blood food.
Blood Puppet Venerable liked the Giant Spirit Hall the most. These body-refining brutes were full of vital energy, comparable to Demon Barbarians as blood material.
After three years, he had not fully recovered, but he was seventy to eighty percent better.
Today's great battle resulted in countless casualties, and the Giant Spirit Hall's body-refining blood food, which he liked most, accounted for the vast majority, which made him incredibly excited.
As long as he absorbed all of it, his precious Blood Demon Puppet could not only recover but even significantly increase his strength!
Even if he couldn't reach the second rank, he would be very satisfied.
But now, looking at the obedient Blood Demon Puppet beside Li Shengyuan, he felt like his world had collapsed…
All his hard work over so many years had become a wedding dress for someone else.
And now, they were showing off in front of him?!
His hatred for Li Shengyuan now even far surpassed that for the culprit, Ye Hangzhou; this brat was simply too hateful!
“Damn brat, die for this Venerable!”
Blood Puppet Venerable, whose anger had reached its peak, roared, transforming into a bloody mist and attempting to bypass Yue Xiyan to charge at Li Shengyuan.
“Stone Yifan, stop this vile woman, and after this Venerable kills the Li family brat, I will heavily reward you!”
“What is Venerable saying? We are now on the same boat, so naturally, I will help you!” Stone Yifan, the Hall Master of the Giant Spirit Hall, laughed loudly and charged towards Yue Xiyan, who was about to draw her sword.
Although he was no match for Yue Xiyan, he believed he could hold her back without issue.
However, when Yue Xiyan's sword qi swept past, almost directly severing one of his arms, Stone Yifan suddenly broke out in a cold sweat.
He realized that this woman had been holding back when fighting him earlier?!
If she used her full power, even if she couldn't kill him in a short time, heavily injuring him would be no problem!
This made Stone Yifan both shocked and enraged.
As a sect master of the Upper Three Sects, the gap between himself and a woman was actually so huge!
He no longer cared about his reputation and shouted at the Deputy Hall Master:
“Second brother, quickly come and lend me a hand!”
Although the Deputy Hall Master's injuries were not as severe as his, he had also been greatly tormented by Ye Hangzhou's array earlier, making it difficult for him to exert his full strength.
Seeing the Deputy Hall Master charging over from the side, Yue Xiyan showed no fear, fighting two third-rank experts alone, which excited the disciples of Yuehua Palace.
They had never seen their Palace Master fight with full strength, and they never expected her strength to be so formidable!
Chen Qingxuan and other experts from other sects were secretly alarmed, never imagining that the Palace Master of Yuehua Palace could fight two third-rank experts alone without falling into a disadvantage. After this battle, her reputation would surely soar. They wondered how their own sect master compared to her…
Li Shengyuan was also somewhat surprised by the powerful strength Yue Xiyan displayed.
This woman looked cold, but he never expected her strength to be so formidable!
Blood Puppet Venerable, who was charging towards Li Shengyuan, saw that Stone Yifan, fighting two against one, still couldn't gain an advantage, and couldn't help but curse, “Two useless fools!”
Then he looked at Li Shengyuan with eyes full of hatred, “Brat, die!”
As soon as he finished speaking, he exerted his full strength to condense a bloody palm print and struck it towards Li Shengyuan.
However, Li Shengyuan showed no fear, chuckling as he patted the Blood Demon Puppet's shoulder.
“Go, kill him!”
Upon hearing this, the Blood Demon Puppet, under Ye Hangzhou's control, suddenly trembled with his massive body. After a roar, he charged directly and unhesitatingly towards the bloody palm print condensed by Blood Puppet Venerable.
He raised his sharp claws and struck directly at the bloody palm print.
In a head-on clash, the Blood Demon Puppet was only pushed back a hundred meters, completely neutralizing all damage from the palm print.
And the hard armor on the Blood Demon Puppet's body only showed shallow cracks, not even counting as injuries…
This scene left everyone dumbfounded. The Blood Demon Puppet's physical body was simply too terrifying; even Stone Yifan was inferior in comparison!
This was a formidable opponent, but thankfully, he was on their side!
“Not bad, not bad. You indeed have some skill in refining puppets,” Li Shengyuan affirmed with a smile.
Blood Puppet Venerable, however, was so enraged he spat blood. It was bad enough that his puppet was stolen, but now he had to face the puppet he had painstakingly refined himself; this was simply too infuriating!
Only he, who had personally refined the Blood Demon Puppet, knew how resistant to damage and how disgusting this thing was!
The most important thing was that the Tiangang Blood Transformation Corpse Refining Array was still providing him with backup energy while also weakening his strength.
He truly shot himself in the foot…
While dealing with the puppet, Blood Puppet Venerable roared furiously at Mu Yunxiao:
“Mu Yunxiao, kill that brat, and afterwards, I will grant you any one request!”
Everyone's gaze turned to Mu Yunxiao and Zhou Bing, and their hearts couldn't help but sink.
Although the current situation was much better, it was still not optimistic.
Although only two of the opponents' third-rank experts were free, their side's third-rank expert was Ye Hangzhou. While his attainments in spirit arrays were extraordinary,
A spellcaster's combat power was not top-tier; it was simply impossible for him to stop two third-rank experts, let alone Prince Yan, a top-tier third-rank expert.
They also didn't know if they could hold out until the sect experts arrived as reinforcements…
But the major sects were simply too far away from here; even a third-rank expert at full speed would need to travel for a very long time.
Not everyone could teleport like Ye Hangzhou.
Moreover, for the closer sects, would their third-rank experts truly be willing to come here and take risks?
This was an unknown variable…
At this moment, Mu Yunxiao looked at Li Shengyuan and said faintly to Zhou Bing:
“You deal with Ye Hangzhou, I will kill him.”
“Yes, Your Highness.” Zhou Bing nodded respectfully.
He had long disliked this brat and wanted him dead, so he revealed an ugly, ferocious grin.
However, as soon as he moved, mysterious array patterns appeared under his feet, and he was then trapped in place, unable to move…
Li Shengyuan saw this and sneered at him, “Truly brainless. Knowing you had problems, wouldn't I have prepared countermeasures?!”
Everyone rejoiced at the sight, exclaiming, “Lord Li is brilliant!”
Now they were truly saved!
However, everyone was astonished to see Li Shengyuan slowly walking towards Mu Yunxiao.
Li Shengyuan held a saber in his right hand and the Cangsheng Brush in his left, saying coldly:
“I’ve wanted to kill you for a long time too!”
