The human he saw earlier was wearing a deep blue Daoist robe.
The one in front of him now had changed into a black Profound Robe.
"Die!"
The Hyena Demon couldnât be bothered to think further and swung a claw fiercely at the hateful human opposite it!
The massive black claw, as large as a house, carried overwhelming power, locking down almost the entire space ahead.
Even if a Foundation Establishment Cultivator were in front, the Hyena Demon was confident the opponent couldnât escape this blow and would be turned into a pulp under its paw.
Immediately, it saw the human male cultivator on the opposite side raising a fist, as if he intended to clash directly with it?
Is he out of his mind?
The Hyena Demon felt incredulous.
But the speed of the claw didnât slow down in the slightest, with its gaze growing more cruel, as if it already envisioned the horrific scene of the foolish humanâs body exploding into gore.
But then, the Hyena Demonâs expression changed.
It felt as if its claw had struck an unbelievably hard top-grade spiritual artifact spear, and it was the tip, no less.
"Roar!!"
Severe pain erupted from the new wound on the palm, causing it to let out a scream.
However, the nightmare was only just beginning.
The originally small hole suddenly emitted a dazzling red light.
Then, spider web-like cracks appeared around the hole, rapidly spreading and expanding in all directions!
âBang!â
The Hyena Demonâs black giant claw, larger than a house, exploded entirely.
It turned into a rain of blood and fragments, which fell and were entirely dissolved by the gray ribbons within the array.
Its eyes showed extreme fear.
It finally realized that this human in front of it was completely beyond its ability to resist!
Without a thought, the Hyena Demon turned to flee.
But it was within the array, and the gray ribbons around surged forward, entangling it aggressively.
Although it broke free with effort, its speed was greatly reduced.
By this time, the human had already rushed in front of it, his fist shining with a brilliant red light, as radiant as the rising morning sun!
"No!"
The Hyena Demon howled in despair, desperately fighting back, trying to carve out a path with its other giant claw.
But the difference in strength between the two sides was too great.
In just an instant, its right claw also exploded.
Then the opponentâs fist landed on its neck, easily breaking it, causing the massive head to fall powerlessly to the ground, a thick fountain of blood spraying skyward.
A vague blood shadow, over ten feet tall, descended upon the Hyena Demonâs corpse, devouring all of its essence blood.
Finally, only a withered demon skin was left, which was hit by a blue fire lotus and burned to ashes...
âAn initial-tier Demon General can be destroyed with a single hand.â
The black Profound Robe man inside the array couldnât help but sigh.
He was a clone of Lou Yi, whose cultivation had now reached the initial level of a Martial Saint.
Even against most high-tier Demon Generals, he was confident in killing them, let alone a mere initial-tier Demon General.
Lou Yiâs main body was manipulating the array outside while his clone entered to capture and kill the Demon General, achieving a perfect coordination.
Those outside remained unaware of what had transpired inside.
They only saw dazzling red light emanating from Lou Yiâs array, worried for his safety, thinking the Hyena Demon was about to break the array.
Unexpectedly, after waiting for a moment, Lou Yi retracted the array map, and nothing remained?
"Whereâs that Hyena Demon?" At this moment, a Corpse-Driving Sect elder, originally maintaining the array, risked coming out to support.
He found the Demon General taken into the array by Lou Yi was gone, causing him to be inexplicably shocked.
"My array devoured it, turning it into fertilizer," Lou Yi explained.
"Talents emerge in every era."
The elder was speechless for a moment.
He looked at Lou Yi as if he were a monster, then turned back to fly to the city walls.
Without him, the City Defense Array became somewhat unstable, and he had to return immediately to prevent further consequences.
Lou Yi didnât rush back; instead, he looked at You Qingyi behind him.
At this time, her aura was gradually stabilizing, looking at Lou Yi dazedly, showing an unprecedented fondness and longing in her eyes.
"Lou, Brother Lou..." She stuttered a bit.
"Qingyi, itâs not safe here; we should return to the city," Lou Yi said with a smile.
"Okay." You Qingyi nodded like a pecking chick.
Lou Yi took You Qingyiâs jade hand and led her back, easily disposing of any careless demons that got in their way.
You Qingyiâs previously pale skin turned a charming pink after holding hands with Lou Yi.
The two reached the city wall without incident, where Bi Yaoyao, Rong Xuejian, and Dai Xiang rushed over.
The thin-skinned You Qingyi hurriedly released Lou Yiâs hand.
"Qingyi, Iâm so glad youâre okay."
"All thanks to Brother Lou," You Qingyi said shyly, her eyes evasive.
This left Bi Yaoyao stunned, and then her gaze became excited.
"Qingyi, you..."
Before she could finish speaking, Lou Yiâs voice sounded in her mind: "Donât alert the target; Master Han Yue is only hiding temporarily and has not disappeared."
This froze Bi Yaoyaoâs expression.
"Whatâs wrong, Yaoyao?" You Qingyi asked, puzzled.
"You should be more cautious next time; why did you dash out of the city?" Bi Yaoyao quickly changed her mindset and accused immediately.
"Sorry, I donât know why I became so impulsive," You Qingyi replied, a little confused.
At this time, the battle in the sky was nearing its end.
Three imposing figures descended from the sky.
Wang Enning of the Red Sun Sect had blood-stained clothes and looked slightly pale.
The elder from the Li Family of the Eastern Sea appeared somewhat listless.
Only True Blood Sectâs Elder Chen Changqing seemed unchanged and wasnât even panting.
"Whatâs going on?" Wang Enningâs face suddenly turned grim upon learning a genius from his sect had died.
"It was Li Tonghui who invited Senior Brother Huang Xiaodong out of the city; True Blood Sectâs Yun Shaohua was also coaxed by him!" An informed disciple shouted in anger.
"I only acted on Fairy Youâs suggestion," Li Tonghui panicked upon finding the blame shifted to him, trying to pass it off.
"Do you listen to anything anyone says? If they tell you to eat shit, will you?" Lou Yi retorted mercilessly.
"You!" Li Tonghui glared at Lou Yi.
"What are you looking at? Never seen a genius who killed a Demon General with Qi Cultivation level?" Little fatty Dai Xiang shouted.
Upon hearing this, everyoneâs eyes focused, filled with shock, astonishment, envy, and admiration.
Many had witnessed Lou Yiâs feat.
Yet hearing it from Dai Xiang was still immensely shocking.
A Qi Cultivation eighth-stage cultivator single-handedly killing a Demon General.
Though he relied on the array, the array was part of his strength, destined to be a bright Chapter in the history of the Corpse-Driving Sect and the cultivation realm!
"Never thought the Corpse-Driving Sectâs fortunes would turn, producing a genius like you," Red Sun Sectâs Wang Enning said coldly, looking at Lou Yi.
"Thanks to Elder Wang seriously injuring that Hyena Demon; otherwise, I wouldnât have had any opportunity," Lou Yi responded with neither arrogance nor humility.
"Hmph!" Wang Enning was somewhat displeased and then turned to Chen Changqing, "What about the death of my sectâs disciple?"
"Everyone walks on their own legs and makes their own decisions; you canât blame others," Chen Changqing added blandly, immediately defining the situation.
In his heart, Lou Yi silently gave Elder Chen a thumbs up.
Old Chen might be a bit of a coward, but heâs reliable at critical moments.
