Chapter 271: Chaotic Battle, Humanoid Demonic Beast (2)
The fiery light was incomparably powerful. With a whistling sound, it instantly arrived in front of Yin Wuyou.
Yin Wuyou shouted as her body lit up. In a hurry, she blocked the fire with her sword.
Zhou Shu frowned, bent his knees, and shot into the sky.
Boom!
Zhou Shu scattered the flames in front of Yin Wuyou with a punch. At this moment, a few more flames shot over from all directions.
!!
Zhou Shu and Yin Wuyou hurriedly landed from the sky. At this time, the flames collided and exploded in the sky.
Zhou Shu and Yin Wuyou looked at each other. This should be an attack from someone from the Demon Realm.
It seemed that they couldn’t fly randomly, or they would get hit like a bird.
“I took a glance just now,” Yin Wuyou said softly. “There don’t seem to be any of our people nearby. Dozens of kilometers southwest seems to be the army of the Demon Realm…”
“We came to a place occupied by the Demon Realm?” Zhou Shu felt that it was a little ridiculous. How did a logistics staff member like him get behind enemy lines?
He turned and saw that only Shi Songtao and Haitang were still with them…
Four of them and not a single official combatant…
“We’re not surrounded by enemies, are we, Your Highness?” Shi Songtao said carefully.
Shi Songtao didn’t know about the imperial cauldrons. Most of the soldiers who partic.i.p.ated in the Ten Nations Martial Arts Tournament didn’t know.
But they already knew about the Demon Realm before coming in.
Regarding the Demon Realm, the officials of the various nations only hid it from ordinary people. They couldn’t hide it from these frontline soldiers.
Shi Songtao also understood who they were facing in the Ten Nations Martial Arts Tournament.
“So be it. What’s the big deal?” Zhou Shu said indifferently. “They can surround us, but can’t we turn the tables around and surround them instead?”
Shi Songtao: “…”
Are you serious?
There are only four of us. How many people do they have?
Isn’t it obvious who’s surrounding whom?
“What do we do now?” Shi Songtao said. He realized with some sadness that he seemed to be the weakest among the four of them.
Her Highness’s little maid’s cultivation might not be as high as mine, but her combat strength…
Shi Songtao was panicking now. If the enemy discovered them, wouldn’t he be in the most danger?
“Surround them,” Zhou Shu said casually and walked forward.
Yin Wuyou and Haitang followed without fear.
Shi Songtao was stunned. “Wait for me!”
He had to follow closely. If he hadn’t been following Zhou Shu closely, he suspected that he wouldn’t have survived the first wave of battle.
It seemed to be even more dangerous now than in the chaotic battle earlier. He couldn’t be too far away from Zhou Shu.
The four of them walked straight toward the Demon Realm army that they had just seen.
Zhou Shu’s thoughts were very simple—find the main army and peacefully be their logistics support.
A detour?
There was absolutely no need for that.
The Demon Realm army had the same thoughts as Zhou Shu.
Zhou Shu and Yin Wuyou had already exposed their location.
The Demon Realm army was already swarming in their direction.
They were halfway across when they b.u.mped into each other.
Previously, he had been focused on fighting and hadn’t even had the time to carefully observe the Demon Realm army.
This was the first time Zhou Shu seriously sized up the Demon Realm army.
Speaking of which, it wasn’t appropriate to call the people of the Demon Realm humans.
They were probably demonic beasts or demons.
In terms of appearance, they were not much different from the demonic beasts Zhou Shu had seen before. If there was one thing, it was that the pupils of these demonic beasts in front of him emitted a demonic red light.
Moreover, they seemed to be even more ferocious, bloodthirsty, and powerful than the demonic beasts Zhou Shu had seen before.
As Zhou Shu sized up the demon army, the demonic beasts also stared at the four of them with scarlet eyes.
Roar! The demonic beasts let out a roar, as if they were saying something.
But Zhou Shu didn’t understand.
“Come and accept your fate!” Zhou Shu hooked his index finger.
The demonic beasts might not understand his actions, but they understood the expression on Zhou Shu’s face.
Boom! A strong aura erupted from the demonic army.
Just as Zhou Shu was about to start a ma.s.sacre, the demonic beasts suddenly stopped their riot. Then they parted, and a person slowly walked out from behind the demonic beasts.
That’s right! A person walked out from the demonic beasts!
At least, from the outside, it looked like a person!
Zhou Shu sized up this person curiously. A legendary humanoid demonic beast?
Unfortunately, it was male.
Zhou Shu’s gaze seemed to pierce the man. The man snorted and opened his mouth to speak.
But Zhou Shu didn’t understand…
The man seemed to react. A cold light flashed in his eyes, and his voice changed.
“Human, tell me your name.” He spoke rather stiffly.
He speaks our language? Zhou Shu found it even more interesting.
“If you understand human language, don’t you know that you should give your name before asking someone else’s?” Zhou Shu said.
As Zhou Shu spoke, Yin Wuyou obediently stood behind him and didn’t rush to say anything.
The humanoid demonic beast narrowed his red eyes.
“How dare you talk to me like that? You’re courting death,” he said coldly. Then the ground under his feet suddenly exploded, and his figure disappeared.
Bang!
With a m.u.f.fled sound, the humanoid demonic beast appeared again. If not for the deep pit under his feet, it would seem that he hadn’t moved at all.
Surprise flashed across the humanoid demonic beast’s face. He stared at Zhou Shu and said in a stiff tone, “Your spiritual essence cultivation is only at the fourth rank. Why do you have so much strength?”
“Why don’t you tell me your name first?” Zhou Shu smiled faintly. “Also, are you the supreme commander of the Demon Realm army this time?”
Zhou Shu looked at the humanoid demonic beast with a strange expression.
He had heard from Meng Bai that the person from the Demon Realm who had killed ten first-rank martial artists in one battle had a humanoid form.
Could it be that he was so lucky that he encountered such an existence on his first time partic.i.p.ating in the Ten Nations Martial Arts Tournament?
But judging from his strength just now, although he was also a first-rank martial artist, he didn’t feel that strong.
He felt even weaker than the Qin emperor.
If the Qin emperor knew Zhou Shu’s thoughts, he would definitely curse angrily.
What did he mean by weaker than the Qin emperor? Was the Qin emperor very weak?
“You don’t deserve to know my name,” the humanoid demonic beast said coldly. “Your strength is not bad. I can allow you to be my pet—”
Thump!
Before he finished speaking, he was sent flying.
All the demonic beasts present widened their eyes in disbelief.
The lord was sent flying by a human?
Boom!
The humanoid demonic beast flew hundreds of feet away and then stopped. There was a clear palm print on the right side of his face.
A powerful aura erupted from the humanoid demonic beast’s body, and his face became slightly distorted from anger.
He roared, “I’ll swallow you whole!”
Thump!
With another crisp sound, the humanoid demonic beast flew hundreds of feet away again.
And there was another figure where he had been standing.
Zhou Shu waved his hand and said casually, “If you don’t know how to speak human language, don’t spout nonsense. No one wants a pet like you.”
The humanoid demonic beast was about to go crazy. His violent aura erupted as he stared at Zhou Shu. How is this possible?!
He clearly only has the spiritual essence of a fourth-rank martial artist. Why is he so strong and so fast?!
I’m a first-rank martial artist!
Zhou Shu’s lips curled up. Humanoid demonic beasts are also very weak.
Speaking of which, the divine ability from the Heavenly Halberd was really useful. These two slaps were really satisfying.
“You’re dead. I swear to Heaven I’ll tear you apart. All of you! Die! Ah!”
