Qinghan, together with his team members, were guarding the eastern part of the lake.
Throughout the night, no enemies appeared. They got used to this fruitless situation, for it had been like this for days. Some were cultivating, while others were peacefully sleeping. Until the next morning, when the silence was broken by the warning devices around the teleportation spots.
The team members all raised their vigilance, wishing to enjoy a brutal fight, after so many hours of waiting.
A scout took the initiative, and disappeared by using his Invisible Technique. As for the others, they clenched their fists, as they were ready to fight.
- Gugugu… -
Within the blink of an eye, another urgent siren rung, which frightened everyone. Their valiant expression immediately turned pale, as another scout was instructed to carry the message to the whole super team!
This was a first-grade alarm! The enemy ahead could be a Demonic or Barbarian Emperor!
All of a sudden, the birds flew away from their trees, as though they were scared of some ferocious beast.
- Swoosh! -
Upon receiving the message, Shisan rushed to Qinghan, who was now wrapped up in an armor of Battle Qi, as he was fully prepared for the upcoming fight…
- Swoosh! -
A lot of the super team’s members arrived, including the advanced cultivators in the Realm of the Prince.
“What’s going on?” Hua Cao whispered to Qinghan.
Turning around, Qinghan replied, “I’m not quite sure yet. We’d better go and have a look when everyone’s here.”
As per the previous agreement, once an advanced enemy, like the Demonic or Barbarian Emperor, appeared, they would all come to help. Also, each Prince-Realm cultivator would be assigned a specific task, with two safeguarding the young lords, and four attacking the enemies, while the last one kept patrolling for any further dangers. This way, the enemies wouldn’t be able to flee, and the rest of the team members would be well protected. Of course, most importantly, the descendants of the prominent families, some of whom might easily be killed by the enemies, would stay unharmed.
“Let’s go, they’ve successfully besieged them!” Shisan had received information from a Prince-Realm cultivator, and urged the rest of the team.
At the same time, Qingcheng also arrived, with a group of beautiful girls walking behind her.
Since the enemy was encircled by advanced cultivators, they had nothing to worry about. In a hurry, they ran to the scene to obtain some knowledge, such as demonic techniques or witchcraft, from the enemy.
When they arrived, a stick-like demon entered into their view. Black scales were covering his skin, including his face. His head was small and spinous, and his pair of eyes had some green light gleaming inside. In the middle of the lawn, he was besieged by four cultivators in black samurai outfits. Looking closer, the weeds and flowers in the surroundings were completely trampled. Predictably, this demon had attempted to flee, but failed.
“Oh, it’s a snake-shaped demon!”
Qinghan yelled in excitement, as he had learned some knowledge about this race. This was actually a pure breed snake demon, which accounted for a majority of the population in the Demon Prefecture. Because of their stunning speed, and toxic venom, they were known as a comparatively strong sub-race. Despite all of their advantages, they were short of attacking skills.
“Haha, since it cannot run away, his ring is at our fingertips.” Shisan somehow felt relaxed after seeing this situation.
Looking at the perplexed expression on the others’ faces, Shisan explained, “The snake-shaped demon is known for their amazing speed and sneak attacks. You know, they’re able to conceal themselves with the help of the surrounding environment. If a cultivator is bitten by such a demon, he will definitely die, for there is no antidote for the venom they release. However, for cultivators in the Realm of the Prince, they’re able to protect themselves from the demon’s venom with their unleashed Battle Qi. Look, right now, this demon has no chance to use his trump card – his venom! For those below the Realm of the Prince, you should avoid meeting a snake-shaped demon. If you get sneaked attacked by him, your physical functions will gradually fade away… The likelihood of being killed under such circumstances is extremely high!”
“Thanks for your reminder!”
Every nodded appreciatively, for this was a matter of life and death. In order to stay alive, they embedded this piece of golden advice within their mind. Meanwhile, the four cultivators in the Realm of the Prince didn’t have the slightest intention to fight, as they just stood there releasing their Battle Qi. Surprisingly, the cultivators’ Battle Qi actually had different colors. Looking from a distance, they were actually like four immortal guardians.
Out of desperation, the snake-shaped demon tried to run away many times. It changed into a streak of a black figure, as he would run in all directions, but he always ended up failing. Somehow, he was like a caged mouse, running everywhere for any possible exits. Sadly, in the end, he realized that he had no chance to get out of this “cage”…
“Humph, this Demonic Emperor is terrible. Except for his speed, he should feel ashamed of himself.” Feng Zi figured out that this demon would be easily killed by any of the four cultivators surrounding it.
“Since they’re all at a similar level of power, why’s the difference so distinct?” He added in confusion.
