Chapter 331 - 278: One Slash of Purple Gold, Severed Head! (Double-Length)
The demon commander, flung away, smashed through the wall and fell onto the nighttime street, spitting demon blood incessantly.
His unconscious body was completely unable to stand, and naturally lost the strength to fight again.
"Monster! It’s a monster!"
On the street, bystanders shouted in horror; even without its disguise, the demon commander was easily recognizable.
This shout also triggered a greater disturbance.
In Fengling Pavilion, demolishing a companion with one punch, such a stunning display changed the mindset of the remaining three demon commanders.
They knew the strength of this Human Race martial artist was significant, otherwise the Demon Race wouldn’t have sent them specifically to ambush him, yet they hadn’t expected Song Changming to be this powerful.
"Is it because I didn’t let you intercept and kill the new City Lord, so you’re here tonight for revenge?" Song Changming looked at the three Flower Raccoon demon commanders and asked.
The three demon commanders, however, didn’t spare the time to reply to his question.
"This person has innate divine power, avoid engaging him head-on!" one demon commander said grimly.
The three approached Song Changming again to attack, obviously more cautious, no longer choosing individual recklessness.
After all, they were three innate-level demon commanders; if they coordinated properly, they definitely had the advantage in numbers.
This time, Song Changming was not careless either, directly unsheathing his Qiushui long saber.
Though his fists and kicks were as heavy as a mountain and extremely powerful, his true strength was even greater under the saber!
Aside from decades of swordsmanship mastery, he also had attributes enhancing characteristics like the sword practitioner, specifically boosting the power of his saber attacks.
Coupled with his other blue attribute-enhancing characteristics, it was destined that only with a saber could he unleash his full strength.
Witnessing a companion sacrifice himself, Song Changming swung his saber, forcing the three alert demon commanders to retreat, evading the saber, rather than choosing to block it directly.
The Flower Raccoon tribe’s perception was sharp, with an acute sense of crisis and ghostly agility in their movements.
Simply put, their agility was maxed out, best at guerrilla combat and assassination.
Among the four demon commanders, the weakest was downed, leaving behind three with each stronger than the other, a force not to be underestimated!
Under Song Changming’s feet, purple-gold anomalous lightning floated as he performed a perfection realm Martial Technique.
The same Martial Technique, when executed with ordinary inner Qi versus innate Qi aura, obviously had drastically different effects and power.
With a bang, Song Changming moved from his original spot, drawing a long black afterimage in the hall.
The purple-gold thunder light crackled in the air.
As members of the Demon Race, the opponents were extremely fast, yet Song Changming possessed the blue trait "Wind Chasing Lightning," and his speed in explosive moments was not inferior to these three demon commanders!
The saber pursued one of the demon commanders who was just slightly slower.
That demon commander moved his claws repeatedly, creating several dark claw marks in the air, all of which Song Changming quickly broke with his saber.
Despite multiple twists and turns, he could not escape Song Changming, sensing he was firmly locked onto him.
Seeing he couldn’t avoid it, this demon commander, sweating from his forehead, unhesitatingly transformed into his demon form!
In mid-air, morphing into a gray-furred demon beast resembling a lynx or a leopard.
Roar!
The gray-furred demon beast bit onto the saber swung by Song Changming, its limbs stamping continuously in mid-air, attempting to dissipate the terrifying force on the saber.
Yet the next moment, the gray-furred demon beast was still knocked to the ground by the saber.
The floor couldn’t bear the weight, cracking beneath, causing the beast to fall to the next level.
Taking Song Changming’s saber hit, its condition was still manageable, although not lightly injured, it was not instantly killed like the previous companion.
It succeeded in using demon techniques to dispel the terrifying giant strength attached to Song Changming’s saber, otherwise, that saber alone would have split its demon form in two!
At this point, the other two demon commanders didn’t remain idle, already transformed into black winds to attack as he wielded the saber.
Facing the coordinated siege, Song Changming knew there was no time to dodge and instead focused all his energy to activate the innate Qi aura.
Purple gold fire ignited around his body, turning him into a small fire figure.
"Hmph!"
The two demon commanders did not fear the purple gold fire; they were more afraid of Song Changming’s immense strength!
This purple gold fire could at most cause them some injury, but if they could directly eliminate this strong enemy, what’s a bit of injury!
Bang!
One after another purple gold fire lotus exploded, with the purple-gold flame columns breaking through the pavilion roof, immediately reaching the air above Feng City, suddenly stirring an invisible energy layer.
The energy undulated like ripples, spreading under the night sky.
The purple-gold flame columns were blocked, scattering in all directions in the air.
This anomaly immediately drew the attention of martial artists in various city districts.
Including the City Lord’s Mansion!
In the mansion, Meng Jianli hadn’t slept, still in the study reviewing various Feng City affairs and documents.
These days, he worked until dawn every day, aiming to quickly familiarize himself with the city’s governance, solidifying the overall situation.
Suddenly, a brilliance in purple-gold light shone through the window crevices from the night sky, catching his attention.
He also heard the disturbance reported from the personal guard outside the door, prompting him to rise and open the study door.
"What is the matter?"
The personal guard was startled and then pointed at the purple-gold brilliance in the sky.
"City Lord, it seems someone is causing chaos in the city, activating the protective array!" the guard reported.
They became Meng Jianli’s personal guards, ensuring his safety with robust capabilities, instantly discerning the cause.
