“…”
When Shen Yanxiao said that, not only were the two demons stunned, but even Long Xueyao, who stood behind her, was also shocked.
“Shen Jue! They are advanced-ranked demons. You are not their opponent. Don’t be rash!” Long Xueyao was shocked. That young man had just saved her life so she could not stand by and just watch Shen Yanxiao die for her.
The two demons were even more baffled.
“Are you joking? Do you think you can beat us?” The taller demon sneered at Shen Yanxiao, who looked much younger than Long Xueyao. He wondered if he had misheard her.
This human wanted to challenge them?
Shen Yanxiao did not think that there was anything wrong with her idea. She nodded honestly and pointed a finger to the tip of her nose. “Yes, I can.”
“Haha! I’ve seen people who are not afraid of death, but I’ve never seen someone who would rush to their death like you. Little kid, how old are you? How capable are you to dare to utter such arrogant words?” The shorter demon laughed out loud. That was the most ridiculous joke he had heard in years.
“I don’t know what you did to save that girl, but if you think you can defeat us with that little trick, you’re overestimating your abilities.” The taller demon sneered.
Shen Yanxiao crouched on the stone steps and propped her chin with one hand as she looked at the two demons who were mocking her. She said calmly, “You don’t have to worry about whether I can beat you or not. Just treat me as if I’m sending myself to my death. I just want to say that if you win, this beauty is yours and you can eat me. However, if I win, you have to let these people go. What do you say?”
“You still dare to negotiate with us?” The two demons thought that Shen Yanxiao was crazy.
“Why not? If you don’t agree to my terms, you won’t be able to get this little beauty.” Shen Yanxiao pointed her finger towards Long Xueyao, who was behind her, without turning back.
The flight of stairs was narrow, and Shen Yanxiao’s arm was not too short. Her casual finger poked Long Xueyao’s thigh, she immediately blushed.
“Ridiculous. We don’t have time to play with you.” The taller demon lost his patience and immediately climbed up the boulder. The demon was very fast, and in the blink of an eye, he was about to reach the stone steps.
Long Xueyao gasped. All of a sudden, she saw Shen Yanxiao, who was crouched on the stone steps, leap into the air. A dark purple longbow suddenly appeared in her hands. She pulled the bowstring and a silver light flew towards the climbing demon.
Everything happened so quickly that the demon did not expect Shen Yanxiao to suddenly shoot him with an arrow. He barely managed to dodge the arrow, and just as he was about to curse at her, he stopped himself.
More arrows flew towards him like rain.
The advanced-ranked demons tried to dodge the dense flurry of arrows, but they failed to grab onto the boulder while doing so. They fell down in a panic. Fortunately, they reacted fast enough, and so they did not fall too hard.
“Such speed.” The taller demon who was forced to retreat narrowed his eyes as he looked at the young man who had a smile on his face.
It had only been a few seconds, but more than a dozen arrows had flown towards him. Furthermore, all of the arrows were aimed at where he landed, without the slightest error.
