Two black-robed figures on the hillside.
One had a burly figure, nearly three ters tall, with a square face and a solemn expression, nad Wu Duanbei. The other was slightly shorter, but still over two ters tall. With arms reaching past his knees, a long and narrow face, and a dense goatee on his chin, his eyes shone with a lecherous yellow light.
This man was called Wu Duanjiang, and he and Wu Duanbei were brothers born of the sa mother.
Apart from these two brothers of the Wu Family.
Around them road more than ten giant wolves, each one taller than a man. These wolves were entirely blood-red, their muscles bulging, and their fur had fallen off cleanly. The fangs bared at the corners of their mouths were like daggers, eerily white, and the thick saliva dripping down sizzled upon hitting the ground, emitting white smoke.
A sinister, bloodthirsty aura emanated from these fearso hounds.
They were like demons, yet with so subtle differences.
In the Northern Jiang Province.
The Demon Gate Sect was a demonic sect that struck fear into the hearts of many.
But the Sect Leader, Ke Yulan, was an out-and-out beauty, with fair skin, a full figure, and a mysterious and cold deanor. Wu Duanjiang had to exert a lot of effort to swallow his saliva and reluctantly moved his gaze away from Ke Yulan’s prominent chest.
"Destroying you, what does that have to do with you?" Wu Duanbei sneered first, then continued, "Also, have you forgotten what you have done in recent tis?"
"What are you talking about?" Ke Yulan’s cold eyebrows slightly furrowed.
"Do I need to remind you?" The burly Wu Duanbei crossed his arms and kicked the bloody giant wolf beside him.
The giant wolf let out a mournful howl and growled in irritation.
"These demons!" Ke Yulan was suddenly startled, her eyes widening as if realizing sothing.
Recently, for so unknown reason, a large number of bloodthirsty demons appeared in Northern Jiang Province. Villages and towns were slaughtered, and calamity struck. Although the Demon Gate Sect was a demonic sect, they mostly carried out assassinations and actually tended to protect commoners.
After all, the great hide within the public, and they needed to recruit followers from these commoners to help collect information.
When the tide of demons reached the Demon Gate Sect’s sphere of influence, they naturally could not sit idly by.
The Demon Gate Sect dispatched experts.
They slaughtered those demons to extinction, investigating the cause.
Before they could figure out the reason, the experts of the Wu Family ca to attack.
The Demon Gate Sect had already suffered heavy losses in several operations and was caught completely off guard by this sneak attack.
The outco was expected.
Fully at a disadvantage, they were forced into their current predicant.
"I was puzzled before why the Wu Family, as the hegemon of Northern Jiang, ignored such bloody events,"Ke Yulan clenched her teeth, her slender hands tightly gripping the sword hilt. Veins on the back of her hands stood out, her knuckles turning pale, and she said in a low voice, "So that’s how it is..."
"Turns out, behind this incident, it was your Wu Family’s doing all along."
"Tinkle!" On the hillside, the sleazy-looking Wu Duanjiang clapped his hands and laughed mockingly, "Too bad, you found out too late."
"Capturing her cos first!" While Ke Yulan was distracted, Wu Duanbei spread his fingers and swiftly pressed his hand down.
Awooo!
A wolf howl explosively burst forth.
In the midst of the blazing fire curtain that rose up beside them.
A vast black shadow of a bloody wolf tore through the air, leaping out fiercely, carrying with it a storm of blood and the stench of fresh at.
Hiss!
Ke Yulan reacted quickly, activating her heightened senses.
She blocked with one sword in her hand, while the other stabbed at the blood wolf.
An overwhelming force pressed down. Ke Yulan’s face changed slightly; she only felt a sharp pain on her shoulder as bright red blood spurted out.
At the sa ti, Ke Yulan’s sword also pierced the blood wolf’s heart. The beast convulsed violently and fell to the ground with a thud, raising a cloud of dust.
All of this happened in the blink of an eye.
A blood wolf was slain, yet from within the smoke, more than ten blood wolves bared their teeth, erging.
Their speed was extrely fast, almost on par with those of the Heavenly Deceit experts. Moreover, they were well-coordinated and highly intelligent. In addition to the presence of the Wu brothers on the outskirts, exerting a faint sense of pressure, Ke Yulan quickly found herself at a disadvantage after a bout of scuffles.
Whoosh!
She dodged a vicious attack from a blood wolf.
Channeling strength into her sword, fire blazed as she sliced off another giant wolf’s head.
"Whew!" A sharp, ear-piercing whistle ca, and Ke Yulan looked up. On the hillside above, Wu Duanjiang was puckering his lips, his face wearing a twisted smile.
Swoosh—
A sinister wind struck from behind, and Ke Yulan’s expression suddenly changed, a bad premonition in her heart.
She turned and stabbed backwards.
But a sudden sense of powerlessness overca her. The wound left by the blood wolf had already healed under her formidable Heavenly Deceit physique, but there was a persistent Blood Poison hidden within, lurking in her body. Now, in conjunction with another powerful blood wolf’s surprise attack, it suddenly erupted, plunging her into grave danger.
Wu Duanjiang’s smile grew even wider, clicking his tongue, seemingly already planning how to play with his prey.
Thump!
A streak of black light flashed from afar.
Like a bullet erupting from a sniper rifle, it traversed a distance of over a thousand ters in an instant.
It struck the head of the blood wolf, which burst open on the spot, just like a ripe waterlon being smashed to the ground. Red blood and white brain matter, steaming slightly, splattered on Ke Yulan’s face, body, and even across the ample rise of her chest, creating chaos everywhere.
From the brink of death to a shocking turn of survival.
Ke Yulan gasped for breath, her chest heaving, her mature and enchanting face wearing an expression of shock that simply wouldn’t fade away.
Suddenly, she looked up—
In the distance, on the desolate cliff, against the backlight of the setting sun.
Experience more tales on empire
A tall figure in a black robe lood high, silently overlooking the entire battlefield.
Despite the fact that they were at least a thousand ters apart, the invisible presence emanating from the figure was like thunder and rain, filling the entire battlefield. Instantly, everything fell quiet. Even the frenzied blood wolves were slightly bowing down, their eyes showing clear anxiety and restlessness.
If Ke Yulan and the others from the Sect of the Heavenly Deceit felt fortunate to have escaped death,
Then, on another cliff,
The Wu brothers were completely caught in a climax of frustration and rage, unable to advance or retreat.
"Who exactly are you?" the stout Wu Duanbei asked coldly.
"No matter who you are," Wu Duanjiang interrupted his brother’s words, angrily saying, "I assure you, offending our Wu Family here is not a wise choice."
"Leave now, and there won’t be any trouble. Otherwise, I assure you, just like her, you will all die." Having said that, Wu Duanjiang bared his teeth, his eyes gleaming with a faint red light, making the threat self-evident.
"Is that so?" Su Heng replied calmly, "I can leave, but you’ll have to explain first. Where exactly do these demons co from?"
"Hahaha, what a joke!" Wu Duanjiang burst into laughter, his face twisting with dense, dark patterns, contorting into a frightful visage, "With centuries of power, in this Northern Jiang Region, my Wu Family is the law of the land. We do as we please. Why would we need to explain anything to an outsider like you?"
Su Heng was montarily speechless.
Daring to speak to him like that, child, you’re looking to court death for your whole clan.
Seeing that Su Heng didn’t respond, Wu Duanjiang subconsciously thought he was intimidated by the reputation of the Wu Family in the Northern Jiang Region.
"Playing the great master, it seems you’re nothing much after all," Wu Duanjiang snorted coldly, transmitting his voice to his brother, "This guy just broke through the Heavenly Deceit. Let’s take this opportunity to finish him off, another unexpected gain."
Wu Duanbei nodded slightly, a hint of murderous intent flashing in his eyes, "Good!"
Awoo!
He suddenly lifted his head and let out a wolf howl.
Seventeen or eighteen giant blood wolves erged from the Sect of the Heavenly Deceit’s stronghold. Their green eyes all focused on Su Heng.
Whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh!
The next mont, all the blood wolves lunged forward.
Leaving behind afterimages, stirring up dust, their fanged mouths reflecting the red light of the setting sun as they howled fiercely towards Su Heng.
While these blood wolves charged with all their might, Su Heng didn’t make a move;
Even when their aura subtly linked together, forming a surging blood wave rushing towards him, Su Heng still didn’t make a move;
Only when the Wu brothers revealed a cruel, bloodthirsty smile on their faces—
All the blood wolves leaped high from different directions, casting shadows almost enveloping Su Heng within, their sharp fangs touching his body—
That’s when Su Heng finally lifted his head, opened his mouth, took a deep breath, and then let out a roar.
Roar!
Like thunder tinted with blood, it fell from the heavens and exploded with a bang.
An endless terror of Yin Wind surged out from the void behind him, like a black tsunami, instantly filling the entire sky.
The rocks beneath Su Heng’s feet burst apart, great swathes of ground were flung into the air. In midair, the previously withered plants ca into contact with the Yin Wind and grew wildly, thick masses of blood-red tendrils filling the sky.
And the blood wolves that had dared to bare their fangs at Su Heng were imdiately corrupted and transford by the Seed of Destruction, turning into even larger mythological wolves, blazing with black fire. Like loyal hounds beneath the hunter’s feet, they surrounded Su Heng and snarled angrily at the people before them.
The heavens and earth darkened, and the Yin Wind howled furiously.
Beneath a dim sky, surrounded by countless Deceit Beasts, stood Su Heng.
Although he still bore a human face, to everyone else, he had clearly beco a terrifying Supre Sky Demon.
"This is the authority of the Seed of Destruction. Life is but a toy for to knead and manipulate at will," Su Heng spread his hands open, his face gradually revealing a sinister smile, "Very good, quite marvelous. This world is too noisy and boisterous—only my voice is sufficient."
That feeling of dominating everything was indeed intoxicating.
Regathering his thoughts, Su Heng lowered his head, his smile fading from his face.
His aloof gaze from high above traversed the thousand-ter distance, finally settling on the bodies of Wu Duanjiang and Wu Duanbei.
Their hearts stopped in an instant, and the overwhelming fear nearly made them forget how to breathe.
Only when Su Heng’s indifferent voice ca drifting with the mountain wind did they finally snap out of it, thinking of escape.
