CH 112.2

“Om!!”

The long saber shook, and a constant stream of evil qi qi passed into Chen Yu’s body through her palm. However, she was totally unaffected. The drought demon seemed to have sensed this, so he coldly snorted. What followed was a turbulent killing intent suddenly bursting out from the saber.

Someone could have thought Chen Yu died when she released a blood-curdling scream from the killing intent. By the time she let go, her hands were already bloody.

At this point, the drought demon finally crawled out from the ground. He stood there, coldly looking at Chen Yu, then he raised his right hand. The long saber that Chen Yu struggled to draw out for a long time, whooshed and flew back. The drought demon pointed at Chen Yu with the tip of the saber, and his evil qi and murderous aura boiled to its peak in unison.

Does he recognize me? Chen Yu was stunned.

“Why are you standing still? Why aren’t you escaping quickly?” While Chen Yu was in a stupor, Elder Wu suddenly rushed in and dragged her out in time.

Just as the two of them ran out of the array, a blood-red saber qi, blazingly flew towards them.

“Boom!” The golden light from the Coiled Dragon Array flashed and managed to block that blow from the drought demon.

When Chen Yu glanced back and saw the saber, she broke into cold sweats. H-How were they supposed to counter this attack power?  

“Shishi, a-are you all right?” Elder Shen asked as something helped him over. 

“I’m fine.” Chen Yu shook her head in shock.

“Fortunately, we started the Coiled Dragon Array in time,” Elder Shen said with relief.

“But…” Perfected Hua Xie, who rushed toward them, pointed to the drought demon in the center of the array who was wielding his long saber in an attempt to destroy the array. “The array doesn’t seem to have the desired effect.”

Everyone was petrified. They turned to look at the mighty and raging figure of the drought demon inside the magical barrier. It was as if he was suppressed by the array by half only. 

“What’s going on?” Elder Shen began to wonder if they had drawn the wrong array. “Is there something wrong with the array?”

“There is no problem with thearray.” Chen Yu said briefly, “It’s because of insufficient spirit qi. The spirit qi in the sky and the earth is too scarce, so the Coiled Dragon Array lacks enough spirit qi to support it and cannot exert its maximum power.”

“Then what should we do?” Today was the end of the Metaphysics era, and the lack of spirit qi was a natural phenomenon. They now knew the cause, but they couldn’t rock the world ah.

“Inject spiritual power into the array,” Elder Wu said. He took a step forward, raised his hand and stuck it to the array’s magical barrier. He then injected spiritual power into the array through his palms.

Hearing this, the bigwigs stretched out their palms. Chen Yu also followed suit and put her palm on it. However, the instant her palms landed, the drought demon, who was fighting against the spiritual power inside the Coiled Dragon Array, seemed to have sensed something. He suddenly turned his head, rushed toward them and menacingly slashed at Chen Yu.

Chen Yu was startled and took a step back.

“Boom!” The drought demon’s strike was once again blocked by the magical barrier. A pair of cold, bloodshot eyes stared intently at Chen Yu, embodying a viper staring at its prey.

Chen Yu coldly shivered and once again affirmed that the drought demon recognized her.

“Shishi!” Elder Wu glanced back at Chen Yu.

Chen Yu snapped back to her senses, and then blushed with shame. It turned out that when the drought demon wielded his weapon just now, the eight grandpas didn’t move a muscle. Only Chen Yu herself subconsciously retreated.

Chen Yu blushed, stretched out her hands and stuck them again. She made up her mind that no matter what happened this time, she would not take a step back.

It seemed that the drought demon was more competitive than Chen Yu. He slashed at the place where Chen Yu was, tirelessly delivering slash after slash. More and more evil qi gathered at the magical barrier. The diffused evil qi filled the whole sky above Qingmang Mountain and kept the sun from shining down.

Chen Yu gritted her teeth and used all her strength to resist the killing intent that almost manifested, insisting that she would never take a step back.

After the drought demon delivered slashes dozens of times and found that he could not break the magical barrier, he abruptly stopped moving. He turned and looked toward the eye of the array, and then a sneer surfaced at the corner of his mouth.

His clothes that had long been corroded; his dark and dry face; his bloodshot eyes, along with that strange sneer made the drought demon look incredibly terrifying.

“I remember you…” The drought demon looked at Chen Yu. His voice rang like a rusty gear, and every word he said was ear-splitting: “It’s you who sealed me.”

Of the nine people, how did you recognize me? It’s all my fault for being overly beautiful. Chen Yu couldn’t help but roll her eyes.

“I told you. When I wake up, I’m going to chew you up and swallow you one bite at a time,” the drought demon said viciously, word for word.

Come on, are you referring to three centuries ago? You can still remember things three centuries ago. Aiyo, your memory is quite admirable. What kind of talent can let things survive by force?!! 

“Wait till I come out.” The drought demon smirked, turned around with his saber and slowly walked toward the eye of the array.

What is he going to do? Chen Yu looked up nervously, only to see the drought demon walking to the hole he had just climbed out of. He then kneeled down on one knee, and after a careful examination, he suddenly plunged his saber into the ground.
