With the sounds echoing.
Five headless corpses lay scattered on the ground.
One of them was startlingly close to Zhong Menjing; the sensation of something flying past his neck still lingered as the person next to him fell.
Zhong Menjing gasped for air, his heart ashen, and he nearly despaired as he looked towards the Thousand Households but found him slowly closing his eyes as if waiting for the inevitable fate, with no intention to resist, let alone save himself.
Thousand Households... had accepted his fate??
The Thousand Households I know would never just accept his fate !
Even in the most difficult and desperate situations, he would erupt with astonishing power, leading everyone out of peril!
His unyielding spirit, his perpetual struggle, that’s why I’ve always followed him!
They’re just some demons... just some demons!!!
Zhong Menjing opened his mouth to scream, but suddenly heard a voice he couldn’t believe.
"Thousand Households, I do not know the number of Thousand Households, I only know that the one leading me is the [Swift Wind Sword] Su Qianhu."
Thousand Households, he, he actually voluntarily revealed the information to the demons??
And not false information, it was true!
"Oh? There’s one who knows what’s good for him."
That young inspector drew his sword, lightly patted Thousand Households’ shoulder.
"And the Hundred Households? How many of them are there?"
Blood spurted out in large volumes from a brother at Thousand Households’ side, accompanied by an astonished expression, he slumped to the ground.
The body twitched twice, then went still.
"In my company, there were three Hundred Households, the others I just..."
"You better think carefully before you speak." That young inspector, with a smile like a devil’s grin.
"I, I truly don’t know..."
Zhong Menjing was taken aback; he realized his field of vision was rising—he had just become aware that this sword strike from the young inspector had severed him.
And this sword, was so long!
He was a full three to four meters away from the young inspector; he hadn’t seen anything clearly before he was suddenly cut down!
The head hit the ground, consciousness fading into darkness; in his blur, he seemed to hear Thousand Households’ trembling voice.
"You?! How could you kill him! I’ll fight you to the death!!"
Fang Yu parried the attack from the incoming person.
He had not expected that this Hundred Households could suddenly shatter the spiderweb bound to his body and engage him in combat.
His eyes were bloodshot, as if some young manga hero had just powered up.
That acting was so, so real!
"Lord Blood Demon, be careful!"
"Lord Blood Demon, back off! Let me!"
Fang Yu had a whole bunch of demons with him.
Seeing someone confronting the boss head-on, they all rushed to help.
The reward at hand, could Fang Yu let others have it?
A Hundred Household had at least four to five hundred points of health!
With a loud shout, the demons who were just about to come up and help all stopped, staying put.
They were only trying to show loyalty, who didn’t know about the Demon Lord’s strength!
The strongest Demon Lord among the nearby tails, dealing with a Foolish Underworld squad leader, wasn’t that more than enough? Original content can be found at novel(ꜰ)ire.net
"Courageous and tactical, lurking until now just to launch this fatal ambush, but unfortunately, you encountered me. Little Hundred Households, tell me the information and location of the [Swift Wind Sword] and the other three Hundred Households, I can offer you a chance to escape."
Thousand Households looked tense, the flesh on his face trembling with excitement.
Hearing this, several demons clearly showed impatience but didn’t dare to contradict Fang Yu’s decision.
The flesh and blood of this Hundred Household was not something they had many chances to taste usually.
Now, by the virtue of being in a larger group, mixing with Lord Blood Demon, they had a chance to share some; it was a great opportunity.
How regrettable it would be to let him go!
Sensing the eagerness among The surrounding demons, Thousand Households seemed to be a bit frightened, stepping back a few steps.
"Fine, then I will tell you..."
The blade of the Thousand Households’ longsword suddenly snapped into hundreds of sharp fragments, whooshing through and breaking the web binding his subordinates.
Some of these subordinates were either too scared to death or were riled up by the sight of their comrades dying before their eyes, ready to fight the demons to death; they did not need any reminders from the Hundred Households and had already started to take action.
Some charged at the surrounding demons, while others seized the chance to flee into the distance.
"How dare he deceive Lord Blood Demon!"
By taking this action, Thousand Households gave the surrounding demons a reason to pounce.
In an instant, demons danced wildly, clusters of Blood Mist erupted, revealing demonic true forms, chasing and tearing at these people of the Foolish Underworld.
The scene instantly became chaotic.
Che Linfang and the others were not affected, as they hadn’t planned to let this group leave alive anyway.
Sparing lives was just Fang Yu’s request for the sake of extracting some information.
However, these Little Demons were not obeying orders and rushed to devour humans, disorderly sharing the spoils, which slightly irritated Che Linfang, her eyebrows faintly furrowing.
Having lurked among human ranks for so long, she preferred a more orderly approach versus such wild, brute feasting on humans.
In the midst of the chaos, Thousand Households did not flee; instead, following his shattered sword, he clenched his fist and pounced fiercely towards Fang Yu.
He was prepared to fight to the death with his bare fists, determined to slay his enemies!
At that moment, Thousand Households said nothing, yet everything was said.
