Chapter 813 - Guaranteed Advancement
The battle had begun.
This round would determine the ranking of the bottom fourteen demon generals.
Overwhelming demonic might erupted from Qi Xue as her palm strike hit the war drum. With a loud boom, several demonic pythons swept out, slithering toward Chen Fan.
In this battle, the twenty-eight demon generals could only borrow the power of the war drums to attack; they weren’t allowed to strike directly. The guardians and guards under the demon generals were free to do as they pleased, however.
As soon as the battle started, Qi Xue launched an attack on Chen Fan’s side. Chen Fan joining Yan Shuiyi’s faction had made her very upset.@@@@
Though the demon generals couldn’t attack directly, the power of the war drums was still heavily influenced by their cultivation. This meant their strikes, while indirect, still carried deadly force.
Yan Shuiyi, with her delicate hands, sent a forceful strike at her war drum, summoning a massive demonic shield in the sky. As the pythons smashed into it, cracks appeared in the shield.
Considering her rank, Qi Xue was bound to be extremely strong, being a top-tier, peak Heavenly Star realm expert. So, her attacks put enormous pressure on Yan Shuiyi.
Also, when Qi Xue made a move, her guardians and her guards charged toward them.
“Be careful, the battle has already begun,” said Yan Shuiyi to Chen Fan.
Chen Fan nodded slightly. The demon sect valued efficiency above all, striking immediately without hesitation.
Crack!
With every strike Qi Xue made on her war drum, the cracks in Yan Shuiyi’s demonic shield deepened.
The demonic shield shattered with a crisp sound, and a demonic python rushed toward Chen Fan.
“Hmph.” Chen Fan snorted coldly and struck the war drum with his palm.
A sharp demonic sword rushed out, disemboweling the demonic python with a tearing sound.
“Kill!” Chen Fan shouted coldly, and he struck out with his palm again.
Dong, dong, dong...
As he beat the war drum, demonic swords erupted from them and tore through space, whizzing toward Qi Xue’s guards.
The guards from both sides were already engaged in battle. Yan Shuiyi’s guards were much weaker than Qi Xue’s guards; therefore, they were being beaten back.
He was the number one demon general, and the force behind him was also the strongest among the guards and the guardians of the other demon generals, undefeated in battle.
More than just one or two top-tier, peak Heavenly Star realm experts served under him. Many of his subordinates were strong enough to hold positions within the top fourteen demon generals, underscoring the immense power of the First Demon General’s forces.
The second demon general, Jin Xingzi, was like a golden-armored demon king, looking at the battlefield with interest. He and his subordinates remained still—no one dared to challenge them either.
The third demon general, Dou Yan, said to Pan Huan beside him, “Do you want to make a move?”
“No hurry. We’ll let them enter the next round. I’ll take his life then,” Pan Huan replied with a smile.
“Alright.” Dou Yan nodded.
Pan Huan, a top-tier, peak Heavenly Star realm expert, had significantly strengthened Dou Yan’s forces by joining his ranks. Dou Yan was planning to rely on Pan Huan in the next round to take the second demon general’s position.
It was also because of this plan that he targeted someone as inconsequential as Chen Fan.
“Tell Qi Xue to let Yan Shuiyi into the next round,” Dou Yan told a guard at his side.
“Yes.” A guard behind him received his order, then he beat the war drum. A terrifying demonic dragon materialized, rushing toward Qi Xue, suppressing and destroying her attack.
Qi Xue’s expression changed slightly. She had already abandoned Chen Fan. Was Dou Yan still targeting her?
“Lord Third Demon General has orders to let him advance into the next round,” said the guard.
Although he was only in the ninth-level Heavenly Star realm, facing a demon general like Qi Xue, this guard did not show too much respect.
Qi Xue’s eyes flickered, revealing a trace of indignity.
However, since Dou Yan had already given word that he wanted Yan Shuiyi’s group to enter the next round, it went without saying that she could no longer make a move. Otherwise, she would be going against Dou Yan.
Qi Xue stopped her attacks. Her icy gaze swept across Chen Fan, Yan Shuiyi, and the others, and she said, “Count yourselves lucky!”
The other demon generals were also slightly taken aback.
They did not expect Dou Yan to defend Yan Shuiyi’s group and allow them into the second round. This came as a surprise.
However, the corners of many people’s lips drew back into a cold smile immediately afterward. Perhaps the higher one stood, the harder they would fall.
After all, there was no way Dou Yan helped them out of the goodness of his heart.
