This scene made Fang Yu feel quite strange.

Like a lion suppressing several hunting dogs, preventing them from daring to snatch the prey from the lion.

Yet who is the real hunter? These guys seem to have not recognized the situation.

Just then, the woman spoke.

It was a cute voice, somewhat childlike and innocent.

"Little brother, demons lie dormant in the city. Being so careless could cost you your life."

However, as she said this, that uncontrollable greedy gaze of hers was still locked onto Fang Yu.

[Shan Shunmei: 41421/41421.]

Indeed... it’s you.

Fang Yu slightly raised the corner of his mouth, cupped his hands in greeting, and said,

"Thank you, miss, for your assistance. However, based on these demons alone, they shouldn’t be able to harm me."

"Presumptuous!"

Shan Shunmei raised an eyebrow and leaped off the Meat Ball Monster.

She was barefoot, landing on the sun-baked, slightly scorching ground without caring about its dirtiness, and walked step by step towards Fang Yu.

"How can you be so careless with demons! You are simply..."

Buzz!!

How fast must a sword be to be considered fast?

Shan Shunmei didn’t know.

She only knew that when she thought the prey had already entered the web she wove, everything under control, she saw light.

The light of a sword!

Her throat was still rolling, voice still escaping, when her neck was already sliced through.

Blood gushed out like a fountain, and Shan Shunmei couldn’t even understand why the opponent drew the sword, dared to draw the sword, or where she had slipped up!

It was all so exquisite.

The demon’s attack, and then at the critical moment, she appeared heroically, completing the rescue.

Her identity shifted from a stranger to a benefactor in one step.

This kind of situation... this kind of situation ought to teach anyone, anyone! to know gratitude, right!!!

Then, what’s wrong with letting me consume your flesh and blood!!!!

Bang!!!

The head, held by only a thread of bloody skin to the neck, finally rolled down, and immediately after, a vast Blood Mist exploded.

The Blood Mist expanded, enveloping Fang Yu within it, and the invisible shockwave whipped at Fang Yu’s clothing, but his expression remained unchanged.

Fang Yu, looking at the ever-expanding outline of the flesh, didn’t retreat but advanced, attacking Shan Shunmei’s true demon form directly!

Dealing with a forty-thousand-blood demon is somewhat tricky, but still merely tricky.

Sword lights and roars alternated in the Blood Mist.

Accompanied by a blood-drenched sound, something suddenly retreated violently from the Blood Mist, waking the remaining demons to reality.

"Attack together!"

"Kill!!"

The Four Demons joined forces, with one being a forty-thousand-blood Great Demon; even Fang Yu had to put in a bit of effort to deal with it.

He was contemplating local Boneification of the arm to quickly resolve this battle.

Suddenly, an incredibly familiar yet unbelievable voice sounded from behind.

"Amitabha. Diao Inspector, long time no see."

What... is it?

Buzzing, buzzing.

Fang Yu felt as if there were tinnitus in his ears, like an auditory hallucination.

Looking back in astonishment, he saw someone, almost impossible to appear, indeed in this place!

"Quan, Quan Heng Master??"

[Quan Heng: 1000/1000.]

Fang Yu wanted to say this person was an illusion, this person was a demon, but the familiar health bar, the familiar appearance, seemed so real?!

Even the title of Inspector was an old story from long ago; later Fang Yu was promoted to Deputy Captain, acting Captain, but by then he hadn’t often seen Monk Quan Heng anymore, and it seemed he hadn’t changed his salutation.

No, no!

The current situation is...

"Master Quan Heng? Is it really you??"

Exposing one’s back to the enemy is very foolish, but Fang Yu was indeed shocked.

Because the last news he heard was that on the night Tianyuan Town was destroyed, Master Quan Heng left with a group of people, never to be heard from again.

Fang Yu thought he’d probably never see Monk Quan Heng again, but so suddenly, here and now... a reunion far from home with an old acquaintance!

So, Fang Yu turned around, his back to the enemy, facing Quan Heng, wanting to see through whether the person before him was illusion or reality.

And at this moment...

"Chance!!"

The few demons led by Shan Shunmei all rushed at Fang Yu, whose back was exposed, like hungry wolves, almost simultaneously!

Their speed was incredible!

Their momentum was fierce!

But someone was faster than them! More ferocious than them!

Boom!!!

Almost at the moment of the explosive sound.

The demons that rushed forward were knocked back in the same way.

Shan Shunmei and the other demons landed clumsily, rolling a few times before looking ahead in horror.

That uninvited, self-talking monk was now... actually floating in mid-air!

And from this person, a strong, natural enemy-like aura was emanating!

That is...

The aura of a Believer!

"Be... Believer!!"

The Heart Mirror Demon almost shrieked, its demonic form revealing facial features from its mirrored surface, showing expressions of fear and awe.

"Spirit?!!"

The Four Blood Demons’ Shan Shunmei was also startled, clutching her chest injury, and turned to flee!

She was scared witless!

Even an ordinary Believer is enough to scare her away!

Not confronting a Believer is almost an instinct ingrained in the life essence of demons!

The Four Demons fled in all directions, yet Quan Heng simply clasped his hands, chanting "Amitabha," with no intention to pursue.

But Fang Yu had already come to his senses.

While the demons were obscured, he saw clearly.

The once awe-inspiring, mysterious monk shrouded in a vague veil had now shed that haze, gradually revealing himself to Fang Yu.

A complex, indescribable emotion surged in his heart, quickly suppressed by Fang Yu.

Fang Yu saw.

At that instant, Monk Quan Heng suddenly erupted a massive amount of blood-colored steam around him.

The blood-colored steam first transformed into the Spirit Shield he had been associated with, but in the next moment, the Spirit Shield disintegrated and morphed into a horrifying propulsive force, instantly thrusting Monk Quan Heng to the demons, and with a palm strike!

The blood-colored steam exploded fiercely in Monk Quan Heng’s palm, using the most primitive and brutal force to simultaneously repel the attacking four demons!

What is that?

Believers are supposed to battle with Spirit Shields, aren’t they?

This is different from the knowledge he knew.

Although Fang Yu was puzzled, he could not allow the escaping demons to get away.

"Master Quan Heng, you handle those two, I’ll chase these two, don’t kill them, capture them alive, I’ll do it!"

No time for reminiscing, after giving instructions, Fang Yu immediately chased after the escaping demons!

If the demons manage to escape the alley and reach the street, the situation will be out of control.

Therefore, the situation must be contained within the alley to resolve it!

Without waiting for Quan Heng’s response, Fang Yu already acted, and with a swish, he was almost out of sight.

Quan Heng was clearly stunned for a moment.

He wanted to catch up with Fang Yu, but unexpected situations arose immediately upon their meeting.

Smiling and shaking his head slightly, his figure flashed, and he followed Fang Yu’s request to pursue the two weaker demons.

...

Run, run, run!

Shan Shunmei was filled with dread!

She had pushed her demonic form to the extreme, yet the figure behind her was still closing in relentlessly!

The distance between the pursuer and her was constantly narrowing, endlessly approaching!

Seeing the skull in the enemy’s hand, Shan Shunmei felt chills in her heart.

That was... the head of the Seal-Breaking Demon, who fled with her moments ago, but was closer!

Dead?

Useless waste!

Couldn’t even help alleviate some pressure, and died at the hands of the young lad!

Shan Shunmei was now filled with hate! Anger! Fear!

The three emotions intertwined in her heart, and at this moment, she even felt a twinge of regret!

Regret for her greed, why did she leave that tavern!

Clearly, the superior had instructed, regardless of the time, to stay guard in that tavern...

Thinking that even if she escaped alive, she would face punishment, her hostility skyrocketed for no reason.

Step!

Suddenly halting her steps, she abruptly turned back.

As if dealing with an unexpected attack, a five-fingered bone claw reached out to seize the approaching enemy!

But her attack missed.

It seemed as if the pursuer had anticipated it, or perhaps was agile enough to stop instantly from full-speed charging.

The former Shan Shunmei could comprehend, but if it was the latter, it signified something even more terrifying...

That the man, during the chase, hadn’t even exerted his full strength!

Only by reserving strength, can one control their body so smoothly, spontaneously halting.

Shan Shunmei hoped the man wasn’t as strong and terrifying as she thought, hence, she swung a probing second claw!

It was this claw that revealed a light.

A golden arc of light.
