Chapter 280: Do You Really Think You Can Stop Me? (2)

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

Under the attack of many demon beasts and Level 3 demon beasts, the Falling River Taiyi Array kept flickering. At this moment, two sword lights suddenly appeared from the distance.

Accompanied by an ear-piercing metal collision,

The two sword lights slashed at the two Level 3 demon beasts closest to them.

One was a silver sparrow and a single-horned tiger.

The two demon beasts were both at mid-grade Level 3.

Facing the sudden sharp sword light, their eyes revealed shock.

Before this, they did not sense any opponents of the same level nearby.

Buzz!

Seeing that the sword lights were getting closer and closer, the two demon beasts immediately erupted with surging demonic power.

A blinding bolt of lightning suddenly burst out from the silver sparrow’s mouth.

Squeak—

A sharp sound like an electric drill sounded, carrying a destructive power, and it collided with one of the sword lights.

At the same time.

On the horn of the Singled-Horned Tiger, a dazzling saber beam condensed, facing another sword light.

In an instant, intense energy exploded in the sky, creating a huge air vortex.

Then, the vortex kept twisting and collapsing. In the end, it suddenly shot out in all directions.

“ROAR!”

It was only at this moment that the remaining two Level 3 demon beasts suddenly reacted.

They were the Flame Tail Peacock and the Glacial Tiger.

The moment the two demon beasts reacted, they immediately charged towards the place where the commotion took place.

There.

Two figures appeared.

A man and a woman.

It was Jiang Chengxuan and Hua Mengyou.

However, the strength they revealed was only a small portion.

The reason was very simple.

They wanted to stall for time.

After all, they weren’t sure if after they revealed their true strength and killed the four Level 3 demon beasts, there wouldn’t be demon beasts of higher level coming to replace them.

If there were, they might as well let these four demon beasts live first and stall for as much time as possible.

If they had to, it wouldn’t be too late to kill them.

After all, their ultimate goal here was to protect Ancient Origin City, not kill as many demon beasts of the same level as possible.

Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!

At this moment, the two of them had to borrow the power of the array to face the Flame Tail Peacock, the Glacial Tiger, the Silver Sparrow, and Singled-Horned Tiger together.

As a result, the battle between the two sides lasted from day to dawn the next day.

At the east gate, when the Blade Eagle let out a sharp cry, the group of Level 3 demon beasts and many Level 1 and 2 demon beasts began to retreat.

The four Level 3 demon beasts on the north gate were no exception.

After attacking Jiang Chengxuan and Hua Mengyou for the last time, they flew into the distance.

Several hours later.

Everyone returned to the meeting hall with seriousness written all across their faces.

From the battle that had just ended, the intensity of the demon beasts’ attacks had clearly begun to increase.

Even high-grade Level 3 demon beasts had begun to appear.

Fortunately, they did not expose all their strength and should be able to hold the fort for quite a while.

After discussing the matters they had to pay attention to, they dispersed and returned to their cave abodes to rest.

Just like that.

Several months passed in the blink of an eye.

During this period, the demon beasts’ attacks became more and more fierce.

The humans were forced to retreat from the front line again and again.

Jiang Chengxuan and the others even learned that several Violet Palace cultivators had died.

This undoubtedly put everyone in a heavy mood.

If this continued, the pressure on Ancient Origin City would probably be even greater.

Because in the past few months, the demon beasts seemed to have sensed something.

And the number of demon beasts sent out increased significantly.

There were also two more high-grade Level 3 demon beasts, Berserk Lizard and the Moon-Swallowing Silver Wolf.

The Berserk Lizard appeared on the east gate, while the Moon-Swallowing Silver Wolf appeared on the north gate.

This forced Jiang Chengxuan and Hua Mengyou to reveal more strength to deal with the attacks of the five Level 3 demon beasts on the south gate.

BOOM!

In the sky, a silver pillar of light that looked like moonlight suddenly shot out from the mouth of a silver wolf nearly a hundred meters long.

Hua Mengyou, with a sweep of her sword, sprinkled a large amount of hazy light spots that offset the silver pillar of light.

However, at this moment, Hua Mengyou suddenly sensed an extremely dangerous aura.

Without thinking, she flashed away.

Immediately after, a loud bang sounded and a huge mushroom cloud rose from where Hua Mengyou was standing.

Storms, ice, fire, and lightning intertwined.

When all of this dissipated, what appeared in Hua Mengyou and Jiang Chengxuan’s vision were four high-grade Level 3 demon beasts!

They were the Moon-Swallowing Silver Wolf, the Combat Ape, the Abyss Cat, and the Two-Headed Snake.

The appearance of three high-grade Level 3 demon beasts made Jiang Chengxuan and Hua Mengyou feel threatened.

If not for the fact that Hua Mengyou’s spiritual sense as a sword cultivator was extraordinary, she would have been severely injured.

Most importantly, this situation seemed to indicate that they could no longer keep a low profile.

Since that was the case…

Killing intent flashed across Jiang Chengxuan’s eyes.

To be honest, he had been holding it in during this period of time.

The anger that was accumulating in his heart was about to explode.

When he saw some low-level cultivators on his side died and eaten by the demon beasts, he wanted to go on a killing spree to vent his anger.

At that time, because he had to consider the big picture, he could not do that.

Now that the demon beasts seemed to have discovered their plan, there was no point in hiding anymore.

If that was the case, what else was there to say?

BOOM!

Jiang Chengxuan circulated his Dharmic power to the fullest.

Seeing this, the four Level 3 demon beasts surrounding him immediately attacked again, wanting to stop him from going to Hua Mengyou’s rescue.

“Do you really think you can stop me?”

A cold killing intent flickered in Jiang Chengxuan’s eyes.

He raised his hand and waved.

The Golden Void Sword, which could barely withstand the attacks of four demon beasts, suddenly emitted a dazzling and sharp sword light.

Under the eruption of this sharp sword light, the clouds in the sky were instantly swept clean.

The closest Level 3 demon beast, the Glacial Tiger, was the first to bear the brunt.

The sword light flew across the sky at the drop of a hat and swept past the Glacial Tiger’s head before it could react!
