Chapter 225: Chapter 225: The 108 Blood Demon Generals

Luo Feng was speaking with Luotian when he suddenly felt a chill wash over him, making his body hair stand on end.

His intuition for danger, which had saved him countless times before, kicked in. He glanced towards the source of the threat.

In the midst of the crowd, a martial artist dressed in grey was swiftly approaching, a bloody light radiating from his icy pupils, chilling to the bone.

“Father, be careful!”

Luo Feng’s expression changed. His words had barely left his mouth when the man in grey suddenly unleashed a ferocious aura.

“Kill!”

BANG!

A giant, bloody eagle’s claw emerged from the man’s hand, tearing through the air. Surrounded by a demonic aura, it lunged towards Luo Feng.

The air violently shook. Several martial artists standing in front of Luo Feng didn’t have time to react and were shredded by the fierce energy emanating from the claw’s shadow.

“Die!”

The man in grey’s eyes glowed an even deeper red. The strength of his claw shadow was overwhelming, suffocating those in its path.

Gang Qi with divine presence! Ninth Heavenly Court Realm!

Luo Feng was horrified. He dared not delay. With a clear dragon chant, his Teng Dragon’s Gang Qi roared out, protecting him from all directions.

BANG!

The eagle claw struck the dragon-shaped Gang Qi. A series of crisp cracking sounds rang out. The dragon scales, capable of easily cutting through rock, were pierced one after another!

“You dare!”

Luotian, startled from his shock, became furious. Amidst the roar of tigers, a tiger-shaped Gang Qi appeared on his fist, charging towards the man in grey.

BANG!

The bloody eagle claw was instantly shattered by the impact, and the Fire Lion Gang Qi also collapsed. It dissipated into invisible Qi Force, riddling the surrounding ground with cracks and gashes.

That was close!

Luo Feng looked at the horrifying marks on the ground, his heart still pounding. His current strength was still insufficient against a Ninth Heavenly Court Realm powerhouse. If Luotian hadn’t intervened, he would have been doomed.

The man in grey, looking at Luo Feng, had an ugly expression. As a Ninth Heavenly Court Realm powerhouse, he had assumed killing a peak Seventh Level Essence Storage Realm martial artist would be effortless. He never expected to fail.

“Feng Er!”

Yang Qing pulled Luo Feng behind her, asking worriedly, “Are you alright?”

Luo Feng shook his head. “I’m fine.”

BANG!

Luotian shattered the claw shadow and took a step forward. His piercing gaze landed on the man in grey. In a low voice, he rumbled, “Who are you, and why did you attack Feng Er?”

Despite Luotian using his full force, the man in grey wasn’t harmed in the slightest. This opponent was not to be underestimated.

The grey-clad man’s eyes were long and glinting, holding a sinister and treacherous light. He looked at Luo Feng and chuckled, “Today, not only will he die, but none of you will escape!”

As soon as his words fell, the situation changed abruptly.

A dozen martial artists clad in grey appeared seemingly out of nowhere in the plaza, rushing straight towards the center of the martial arts arena.

In an instant, horrified screams filled the air as dozens of martial artists fell into pools of blood, plunging the entire plaza into chaos.

These people…

Luo Feng narrowed his eyes. These martial artists dressed in grey possessed a minimum cultivation of the Eighth Hell Realm. Among them were even five at the Ninth Heavenly Court Realm. The skinny old man leading them, whose strength Luo Feng could not fathom, had to be a Spiritual Rotation Realm powerhouse!

“Kill! Leave none of the Four Great New Talents alive!”

The skinny old man’s raspy voice was filled with boundless murderous intent. WHOOSH. With a casual wave of his hand, a red flash appeared on the bodies of several nearby martial artists, who then exploded into a mist of blood!

“Kill!”

The dozen or so martial artists in grey shouted in unison. They moved towards the center of the martial arts arena like specters, leaving a river of blood in their wake.

“Since when does our Tianlan School allow you to do as you please!”

A soft voice rose, accompanied by an imposing aura. Zhou Zhiyun stepped out from the VIP seats, her pretty face now covered in frost.

Behind Zhou Zhiyun, Zi Hongyuan, Huo Tianqing, and Zhao Hanshan, the deans of the Four Great Schools, stepped forward, positioning themselves to shield against the grey-clad martial artists.

Zhou Zhiyun’s eyes fell on the bodies strewn across the plaza. Her gaze turned ice-cold as she stared at the leading, skinny, grey-clad man. Such an incident happening during the New Talent Assembly had severely damaged the Tianlan School’s reputation.

Upon seeing Zhou Zhiyun blocking his path, the grey-clad leader sneered derisively, “Zhou Zhiyun, I don’t take your little Tianlan School seriously. Do you think the few of you can stop me? I suggest you leave quickly if you want to keep your lives. Otherwise, you’ll bring disaster upon yourselves, and then it will be too late for regrets!”

The other grey-clad martial artists looked at Zhou Zhiyun with lewd grins. “We’ve long heard that the Dean of Tianlan School is a beauty, but we didn’t expect her to be this stunning. Blood Lord, should we capture her and refine her into a puppet corpse for your amusement?”

The skinny old man in grey waved his hand. “Don’t cause unnecessary trouble. We’ve already attracted attention in the Hundred Nations Territory. This is not a place to linger. End this quickly!”

As soon as his words fell, the skinny old man flicked his finger. A powerful Qi Force pulsed from his body, a foul wind stirred within the plaza, and a blood-red energy streamer charged towards Zhou Zhiyun.

Zi Hongyuan’s expression changed in alarm, and he cried out, “Zhou Zhiyun, be careful! That’s the Blood Demon Sect’s Blood Fiend Yuan Gang! They are members of the Blood Demon Sect!”

Zhou Zhiyun hadn’t heard Zi Hongyuan’s words. The moment the blood-red streamer appeared, she sensed immense danger and dared not divert her attention in the slightest.

“Break!”

With a simple gesture, a jade-green longsword appeared in Zhou Zhiyun’s hand. Carrying a relentless, fierce momentum, it slashed towards the bloody streamer.

SWISH!

The bloody streamer broke apart under the impact, and an intense shockwave spread outwards. A terrifying pit, tens of feet wide, formed between the two combatants.

Zhou Zhiyun, caught in the aftershock, let out a muffled grunt and staggered back a few steps. An unnatural flush spread across her delicate, snowy cheeks.

What power! Both of them are Spiritual Rotation Realm experts!

Feeling the intense fluctuations of Yuan Qi, Luo Feng’s eyes twitched slightly. Their exchange reminded him of the past showdown between Cang Nanyue and Chen Hei Feng, an External Elder of the Demon Sect!

Huh?

The skinny, grey-clad martial artist looked at Zhou Zhiyun, his brow furrowed slightly, then a cold sneer formed on his lips. So you’ve already entered the Spiritual Rotation Realm. No wonder you could block my attack. Fine. I’ll kill you today as well, to avoid future trouble!

Beside Zhou Zhiyun, Zi Hongyuan, Huo Tianqing, and Zhao Hanshan looked on with surprise. As deans of the four major schools, the three of them were only at the Ninth Level of the Heavenly Court Realm; they hadn’t expected Zhou Zhiyun to have already advanced to the Spiritual Rotation Realm.

Zhou Zhiyun took a shallow breath, suppressing the churning Qi and blood in her chest. Her beautiful eyes, now tinged with gravity, fixed on the skinny old man. “I never expected that the renowned Xue Jiuyou of the Blood Demon Sect would come to my Tianlan School.”

“What!”

Hearing Zhou Zhiyun’s words, the nearby martial artists all gasped.

“Father, you also know Xue Jiuyou?” Luo Feng couldn’t help but ask, seeing Luotian’s expression change.

Luotian looked at the skinny old man in the distance, took a deep breath, and nodded. “This man is one of the 108 Blood Demon Generals of the Blood Demon Sect! He has a formidable and fearsome reputation.”

The 108 Blood Demon Generals of the Blood Demon Sect!

A chill ran through Luo Feng’s heart. After his encounter with Cang Nanyue and the Demon Sect elder in Ghost Howl Forest, Luo Feng had returned to the school and researched information about the West Desert Demon Realm. The Blood Demon Sect was one of the major sects in the West Desert Demon Realm, possessing immense power. The sect had tens of thousands of disciples, among whom were 108 External Elders. These 108 individuals were all Spiritual Rotation Realm experts, formidable in strength, and also known as the 108 Blood Demon Generals!

When Luo Feng had read the description of the Blood Demon Generals, he had been astounded by the Blood Demon Sect’s strength, but he never imagined he would witness one in person today!

The skinny old man looked at their drastically changed expressions and sneered proudly, “I haven’t been active in the Hundred Nations Territory for ten years. I didn’t expect anyone to still remember me, Xue Jiuyou.”

Zhou Zhiyun’s face remained expressionless, her voice cold as ice. “This is the Hundred Nations Territory, not your West Desert Demon Realm. No matter who you are, you will not have your way here!”

Zi Hongyuan stood beside her, his eyes wide with rage, and snorted, “Exactly! If you kill the Four Great New Talents today, what dignity would our four academies have left? If you want to touch them, you’ll have to get through us first!”

Huo Tianqing and Zhao Hanshan also radiated killing intent.

Xue Jiuyou snorted coldly, a terrifying Yuan Qi erupting from his body, causing the ground around him to crack. His voice was glacial, “Just you lot? Want to stop me, Xue Jiuyou? You’re still too inexperienced! Kill them! Leave no one alive!”

WHOOSH!

Finishing his declaration, he roared, and a terrifying momentum shot towards the sky. The surrounding Yuan Qi churned madly, stirring a violent gale that made it difficult for people to keep their footing.

SWISH!

In a flash, Xue Jiuyou transformed into a terrifying streak of bloody light, soaring into mid-air. His vast, blood-colored Yuan Qi, like a pool of blood, locked onto the space occupied by Zhou Zhiyun and the other three deans, then suddenly pressed down.

BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!

The blood-colored Yuan Qi descended with the force of a thousand tons, heavy as a mountain.

RUMBLE…

Wherever the blood-colored Yuan Qi passed, space itself collapsed, and wild winds scattered. Although Xue Jiuyou employed no specific martial arts technique, a strike from him at his level of cultivation was enough to shatter mountains and crack the earth!

“Don’t be so arrogant!”

Zhou Zhiyun raised an eyebrow. Her plain dress fluttered though there was no wind, and her dark hair streamed behind her. The jade-green longsword in her hand let out a dragon-like hum.

“Azure Light Soft Water!”

As her clear voice rang out, Zhou Zhiyun’s beautiful eyes flashed with a cold light. The jade-green longsword thrust diagonally outwards, and her figure transformed into a thirty-foot-long streak of azure sword light, rocketing skywards to meet Xue Jiuyou!

CHINK!

The azure sword light tore through the air, emitting a sharp whistle as it instantly cleaved the terrifying blood-colored Yuan Qi in two!

“Courting death!”

Xue Jiuyou snorted coldly, his eyes blazing with a bloody light. A terrifying, red Gang Qi erupted around him, making him appear as if wreathed in flames as he charged towards Zhou Zhiyun!

BANG!

The two collided. Zhou Zhiyun’s figure was blasted back a hundred meters, leaving a terrifying energy trail in the air.

Hovering in mid-air, Zhou Zhiyun looked at Xue Jiuyou, her gaze even more solemn. She spoke quickly, “I will hold back Xue Jiuyou! Elders of Tianlan School, heed my command! Lead the students and evacuate Yunlan Peak immediately! Seek help from the Sky Sword Pavilion!”

Zhou Zhiyun was only at the third level of the Spiritual Rotation Realm, while Xue Jiuyou’s cultivation had reached the fifth level. After that brief exchange, Zhou Zhiyun knew she was no match for him; at best, she could only delay him for a short while.

Several elders of Tianlan School, seeing the direness of the situation, shouted loudly, “All students, evacuate Yunlan Peak immediately! Gu Yunfei, mount the Six-leg Demon Horse and go to Sky Sword Peak to seek help from the Sky Sword Pavilion!”

Hearing the order, the surrounding students were jolted to their senses and frantically scrambled towards the exits of the plaza…
