Chapter 652 I Want to Drink Your Blood
"Is what you said true? There are several hundred Five Star demons in this horde?"
A High-Stage Four-Star Mage asked in a high-pitched voice, attracting more people's attention.
Sigh!
Max sighed in his heart, already regretting choosing to speak out loud. He did that so they wouldn't take them lightly and lose their lives as a result. But it seemed his words only served to create more panic and bring the people's morale down, at least, of those who heard this man's voice.
His expression not changing a bit and his gaze focused on the demons, he said, "It's up to you whether you all believe me or not. But no matter what you do, be careful or suffer the consequences."
"Don't listen to him!" Someone shouted.
"He is just a Four Star mage; how can he know their cultivation so precisely?"
"That's right. He is lying. He must be a traitor who wants to bring our morale down. I say we kill him first–"
Swoosh!
Boom!
Before this last person could finish their sentence, the sound of something piercing air sounded, which was followed by the sound of something exploding.
Everyone's expression changed drastically when they looked in the direction of the man who was speaking because... his head had just exploded.
For a moment, everyone looked at Max, thinking he had killed him, but then the cackle of a demon sounded.
"Keke, how amusing! Do you think we would need human traitors' help to kill you all? Don't underestimate us great demons."
Swoosh! Swoosh!
Right as the voice fell, a group of twenty demons pushed through the people in front and appeared before Max's group.
The one leading the group was a humanoid female demon with hip-length red hair and blood-red eyes. Also, unlike the rest of the demons, she had blood-red scales on her cheek bones.
She gave off a powerful and deadly aura as she swept her gaze across everyone before facing Max, "I want to drink your blood."
Swoosh!
"Why are you running? Come, have a taste of my blood." Max shouted in the demon language, startling everyone.
He channeled his mana and mixed some of his bloodline energy, casting the Phoenix Wings two seconds later.
By now, the demoness had disappeared in the crowd, but she was still in the range of his bloodline sense.
"Miss Pauline, lend me a sword." He said, extending his hand toward the stunned Pauline, who quickly snapped back to her thoughts and gave him her black sword.
"I will be in a while. You guys take care of these demons until then."
Fwoosh!
Shiing!
Once he was finished speaking, his wings gently flapped, and the sound of a sharp sword cutting through flesh sounded almost at the same time he disappeared.
When they heard the sound, Lily and the High-Stage Five Star mage's gaze flashed as they turned their gaze to the demon group.
"How strong!" The High-Stage Five Star mage exclaimed in shock while Lily wore a beautiful smile and a proud expression on her face.
Hearing the mage's exclamation, Emily and others followed their gaze and saw the heads of two demons, who were standing closest to the scaled demoness, slowly slide down their necks and fall to the ground.
Thud! Thud!
Just like them, the rest of the demons' eyes widened in shock.
"This... he killed them?" One of the demons muttered in demon language, his voice trembling.
Lily glanced at Pauline and Emily. "They were the only two Five Star demons apart from that scaled demoness. The rest are just in the Three and Four Star realm."
Swoosh!
"Let's quickly kill them." Saying this, she rushed toward the demons, a cloud of white mist covering her figure.
When she was ten meters away, the cloud of white mist burst apart and enveloped half of the demons, instantly freezing them into Ice statues, snuffing out their lives.
Seeing this, Pauline donned her full body armor, took out another black longsword, and rushed over, "Kill!"
Emily, Sera, and the Fullers also rushed at the shocked and panicked demons.
