Chapter 22

Re-read chap 21… 

The little boy did not understand from where the dreamy candies came from.  

On the dirty street, a sliver of yellow sand was caught in the cross-flowing water and no other trace was seen.  

At this moment, in the dense jungle outside the spring city, the battle between humans and demons was in full swing.  

A wave of heat greeted her, sweeping Chu Qianxun down from a height.  

She didn’t dare to stay still, and rolled in a vertical direction, dangerously avoiding the huge demon that rushed towards her.

This demon had a tall body, a hard shell, and blazing flames all over the body. It ran wildly all the way, and basically no one could get near it. 

Chu Qianxun wiped her face. Her back and shoulders were burnt by flames. The pain was fierce. Her leg bones were broken.  

“Qianxun, you retreat,” Gao Yan pulled her. 

The demon their team dealing with was named Blunt Walker, it was a fifth-order flame demon. With rock defence and high attack, the red hot lava flows through its rock-like body. Wherever he passed, a trail of flames were passed, and the vegetation turned gray. 

But it was actually just a trivial pawn in this demon hunting operation.

Above the jungle not far from them, hovering high above was a small demon with back wings,

The demon was beautiful in appearance, an exquisite figure, and had a face very close to that of a human female and a semi-insect body.

At the moment, it hung in the air, the wings on the back hummed and the eyes were concentric circles of black and yellow intersecting. The exquisite yellow body was wrapped with delicate yellow stripes, and the limbs were thin and long like insects with sharp barbs. 

This was a ninth-order demon called the Egersis. It seemed small in size, which was the main target of this demon hunt. The most difficult thing was not its combat ability, but its unique control ability. It could control a large number of low-level demons and make them attack humans. The number of demons and its level depended on the Egersiss level.  

The ninth-order Egersis was terrifying. It brought an army of overwhelming demons.

Spring City Lord Huan Shengjie spent a lot of money to gather the masters of the famous major mercenary organizations nearby to come together to suppress the demon.  

The small team composed of saints like Chu Qianxun was only responsible for killing the low-level demons summoned by the Egersis to create as much convenience as possible for the big shots to fight.  

Chu Qianxun’s collar was pulled by someone and she was thrown away. She turned her hand in the air with a knife. The blade brought out a blast of wind, carrying sand and dust all the way and she rushed forward. 

Almost at the same time, the overwhelming flames were burning towards the place where she had just stayed. The flames rushed against the wind and were redirected, allowing the saints standing there to retreat in a short gap. 

If she was a step slower, even with the saint’s strong body she would inevitably be peeled off by the flames from the demon’s mouth.

Pulling her was a saint from the same team, named Lin Sheng. The two belonged to the same team and had cooperated many times. They had been in perfect harmony with each other and resolved any crisis in time.  

Two young saints who belonged to another team, could not avoid it because of inexperience. The flame hit them and they fell to the ground.  

The Egersis’s huge body squatted down. The experienced demon hunters groaned at the same time.  

Sure enough, in the next moment the demon used its signature move and rushed towards the two little bodies that fell to the ground.  

Gao Yan exerted her gravity ability to the fullest, trying to hold down the runaway demon and save the young warrior who couldn’t escape.  

Chu Qianxun flipped a pair of silver-white short knives with both hands, and two rows of dozens of wind blades staggered forward, splitting the flame all the way, hitting the demon’s body directly, and cutting off the demon’s rocky shell.
