Slaying demons and eliminating evil, a martial saint among mortals.

There were six wolf demons in total.

They are larger than the previous one.

The wolf demon in the lead was almost as tall as two ordinary people.

Its body was covered in grayish-black fur, and there was blood around its mouth.

His eyes were fixed on Qin Lie and Xu Qinghe.

Upon seeing the wolf demon's corpse on the ground, the ferocity in his eyes intensified.

Qin Lie subconsciously used his Qi Observation Technique to take a look.

Target: Wolf Demon

Demonic Aura: Peak Lesser Demon

Upon seeing this notification, Qin Lie's heart sank to the bottom.

Peak of the Lesser Demon!

This thing is not easy to deal with; Xu Qinghe and he might both die here today.

Yesterday, Lu Chen explained to him the general realms of the demon race and the human race.

Ordinary demonic beasts tainted with demonic energy can at most be considered demonic beasts, probably only a little fiercer than ordinary wild animals.

Only those that have gained sentience, can speak human language, and know how to disguise and scheme can be considered minor demons.

The early stage of the Lesser Demon Realm roughly corresponds to the ninth rank of the human race, the middle stage to the eighth rank, and the late stage to the seventh rank.

As for the peak of the Lesser Demon Realm, that's a realm where one is almost at the threshold of becoming a demon soldier.

If we were to compare them to other human races, they would be among the most troublesome of the seventh-rank individuals.

Qin Lie is currently only at the early stage of the ninth rank. Even if his physique and agility are stronger than those of an average ninth rank cultivator, it doesn't mean he can go toe-to-toe with a peak Lesser Demon Realm cultivator.

Fortunately, Xu Qinghe is still here. Judging from her calm demeanor, she should be able to handle the current situation.

"Those brats from the Demon Suppression Division arrived pretty quickly."

"You dare to kill my men, Wolf Wind? You've got some nerve."

As he spoke, Wolf Wind revealed his gleaming white teeth.

However, his gaze soon fell on Xu Qinghe. After looking her up and down, a disgusting smile appeared on his lips.

"Kill the man, keep the woman, she'll be perfect to take back to the cave for me to have some fun with."

Upon hearing this, Qin Lie's eyes instantly turned cold.

He gripped the demon-suppressing blade tightly, about to take a step forward, but Xu Qinghe beside him chuckled softly.

The laughter was soft, but it sent a chill down Qin Lie's spine for no apparent reason.

Xu Qinghe slowly closed the booklet in her hand and looked up at the wolf demon.

"What did you just say? I didn't hear you."

"Why don't you say it again so I can hear it?"

Upon hearing this, Wolf Wind laughed even more arrogantly.

"What's wrong with me saying it again?"

"In a moment, I'll show you what real pleasure is!"

Upon hearing Lang Feng's words, Qin Lie silently took two steps back.

Wolf Wind didn't notice Qin Lie's actions, but Xu Qinghe did.

She turned and glanced at Qin Lie.

Why are you backing away?

Qin Lie gripped the Demon-Suppressing Blade tightly in his hand, his expression serious.

"I'm afraid you might accidentally hurt me when you make your move."

Xu Qinghe paused for a moment after hearing this, then laughed.

That smile was as beautiful as a flower.

To be honest, Qin Lie had never seen Xu Qinghe smile before.

However, Qin Lie quickly noticed something was wrong. Xu Qinghe's pupils had turned red at some point, as if rouge had been applied to the bottom of her eyes.

The aloof and unsmiling clerk Xu seemed to vanish in an instant, replaced by a completely different demeanor.

Zhang Yang

妩媚

It also carried a hint of indescribable danger.

He was right; this woman was about to unleash her ultimate move.

The next moment, Xu Qinghe took a step forward, not walking towards Lang Feng, but instead approaching Qin Lie.

Before Qin Lie could react, she was already standing beside him, gently holding his arm with one hand.

Qin Lie immediately felt the touch on his arm.

Xu Qinghe looked up at him, her voice softening considerably.

"Qin Lie, look at them, they say they want to take me back to the cave."

"I'm so scared, can you protect me?"

As she spoke, she gently shook Qin Lie's arm.

Qin Lie glanced down at Xu Qinghe beside him, and for a moment he didn't know what to say.

Is this her ultimate move?

You can use charm to increase the strength of your allies.

However, at this moment, Qin Lie felt nothing but heat all over his body, and he didn't feel any increase in strength.

It was obvious that Xu Qinghe was teasing him.

Qin Lie felt helpless. Things had already come to this point, could they just stop playing around?

It's a matter of life and death!

However, since Xu Qinghe had said so, Qin Lie could only grip the Demon-Suppressing Blade in his hand and stand in front of Xu Qinghe.

"Don't worry, as long as I'm here, if they want to mess with you, they'll have to step over me first."

Whether Xu Qinghe was genuinely afraid or feigning fear, they couldn't very well ask Qin Lie to retreat behind a woman at this moment!

Xu Qinghe leaned against him and suddenly giggled.

"I didn't realize you had such a chivalrous heart."

"But to be fair, you looked pretty cool when you stood up for yourself, like a real man."

Qin Lie was about to retort that he wasn't like a man when he was about to speak.

But before he could say anything, he felt a hand gently pull him from behind, and he unconsciously took seven or eight steps back.

"However, your current strength is still a little lacking."

"If I really relied on you to protect me, I guess neither of us would be able to get back today."

Qin Lie's lips twitched. How could this woman change her attitude faster than flipping through a book after her eyes turned red?

Xu Qinghe raised her hand to tidy her hair behind her ear, her red eyes looking at Lang Feng.

"I'll take the tallest one, and the rest are yours, okay?"

"Haven't you always complained that you haven't killed enough monsters? Let's see if you can kill to your heart's content today."

After hearing Xu Qinghe's words, Qin Lie swallowed hard.

He had initially thought Xu Qinghe would join him in dealing with the wolf demons, but it turned out she only dealt with one.

Yes, he previously thought there weren't enough demons to kill, but those demons were all low-level monsters.

The five wolf demons in front of them were all at the early stage of the Lesser Demon Realm, equivalent to the ninth rank.

He could definitely handle one-on-one, but now he's facing five...

Even if it's one against five, we have to fight!

Because Xu Qinghe lightly touched the ground with her toes, she headed straight for Lang Feng.

A hint of surprise flashed in Lang Feng's eyes, but he quickly burst into laughter.

"Well done!"

It raised its thick wolf paw and slapped it towards Xu Qinghe.

Xu Qinghe didn't make a move at all; she simply raised the booklet in her hand and gently tapped it forward.

boom!

Wolf Wind's enormous claw abruptly stopped in mid-air, as if blocked by something unseen.

Xu Qinghe stood still, not even taking a step back, tilting her head and smiling at Lang Feng.

"Oh, is that all the strength you've got?"

"I'm not happy at all right now!"

Wolf Wind's expression immediately changed, and at this moment, the remaining wolf demons had already surrounded Qin Lie.

One of the wolf demons grinned and growled softly before lunging at Qin Lie.

Qin Lie raised his sword to block.

boom!

The wolf's claws slammed onto the Demon-Suppressing Blade.

Just as Qin Lie managed to fend off a frontal attack, a wolf demon pounced on his waist.

He could only retreat immediately, but there were other wolf demons behind him.

Stab it!

A wolf's claw slashed across his back, tearing his black outfit open, and a burning pain immediately shot through his back.

Qin Lie gritted his teeth.

Five of them attacking at once is a completely different matter from fighting one at a time.

If they were ordinary monsters, it wouldn't be so bad, but these wolf demons actually cooperated.

If he reacts even a little too slowly, he'll get a claw attack.

Before long, he had several more wounds on his body.

Qin Lie spat out blood and gripped the Demon-Suppressing Blade tightly in his hand.

At this point, we can no longer continue to play a passive defensive role.

With five wolf demons attacking, it's impossible to defend alone.

We need to kill one or two of them first to break this encirclement.

Qin Lie charged towards a wolf demon with the Demon-Suppressing Blade in hand. He deliberately created an opening, and the wolf demon immediately pounced on him.

Qin Lie didn't dodge; instead, the wolf's claws grazed his shoulder, and blood immediately flowed out.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Qin Lie slashed horizontally with his sword.

puff.

The Demon-Suppressing Blade slashed directly into the wolf demon's neck. The wolf demon let out a miserable howl and fell backward.

It's better to cut off one finger than to injure all ten.

Qin Lie didn't give it a chance to struggle, gripping the knife with both hands and pressing it down hard.

Click!

One strike to the head!

The first wolf demon fell to the ground.

The Demon Suppression Order also became very popular.

However, Qin Lie didn't have time to examine these prompts closely, because two wolf demons had already pounced on him from the left and right.

He didn't retreat, but instead went to meet the wolf demon on his left.

The wolf demon's claws tore open his left arm.

pain.

It hurts a lot.

But that's exactly the effect Qin Lie wanted.

Ignoring the pain in his body, he thrust out his sword, the Demon-Suppressing Blade aimed straight for the wolf demon's heart.

Two have already been killed, and there are three left.

However, Qin Lie is not in good condition right now.

Both arms were severely injured, covered in blood and gore, and he couldn't even lift the Demon-Suppressing Blade.

Qin Lie glanced at his panel. He had gained six attribute points from killing three wolf demons, so there was no need to save them anymore.

"Improve physical fitness."

As soon as the thought crossed his mind, a warm current spread from his chest, and the wounds that had been bleeding, though not completely healed, stopped bleeding.

My sore arms regained their strength.

This is what he relies on to dare to use a fighting style that trades injury for life.

Each time you add points, it heals your physical injuries and restores some strength.

Qin Lie picked up the Demon-Suppressing Blade again and held it in his hand.

After the two wolf demons died, the remaining three became noticeably more cautious.

They didn't pounce on him immediately, but instead slowly circled around Qin Lie.

Qin Lie also took this opportunity to glance at the panel.

He originally wanted to continue increasing his physique, but the next moment he frowned because the plus sign after physique disappeared.

Physical condition: 10

Only one data point remains.

What's going on?

Does this mean that 10 points of physique is the upper limit of the ninth rank?

But there was no time to think about these issues now, as the remaining wolf demons pounced again.

Qin Lie did not hesitate at all. Since he could not increase his physique, he would increase his agility.

"Add all points to Agility".

The panel flashed again the next moment.

Agility: 10

This time it was different from when I was trying to improve my physical condition. I didn't feel anything obvious in my body, but a surge of heat instantly rushed to my legs.

Qin Lie could clearly feel that his body was much lighter.

Looking again at the wolf demon's pounce, it seemed to be moving a little slower than before.

However, it shouldn't be that the wolf demon was slower; rather, he was faster.

A wolf demon pounced from the left, and Qin Lie slipped, almost sliding past the wolf's claws.

The Demon-Suppressing Blade was swung upwards from the bottom.

puff!

The wolf demon's abdomen was ripped open, and its intestines spilled out onto the ground.

The third one.

A hint of panic visibly appeared on the faces of the remaining two wolf demons.

They originally thought that if five people ganged up on one human, they could easily tear him to pieces.

Unexpectedly, as the fight went on, the human in front of them not only did not fall, but their own kind died one by one.

Especially now, Qin Lie's speed is significantly faster than before.

A wolf demon turned and tried to run into the cave, but Qin Lie's eyes turned cold.

"Now you want to run? Weren't you pretty fierce when you were ganging up on me?"

Qin Lie pushed off with his foot and chased after him, the Demon-Suppressing Blade slashing down from behind!

The fourth wolf demon also fell to the ground.

The last wolf demon was completely exasperated and turned to run towards Wolf Wind.

"Boss, save me! Boss!"

It was running while wailing.

Just as Qin Lie was about to give chase, he heard a muffled thud from not far away.

boom!

Wolf Wind's massive body was kicked away by Xu Qinghe and crashed heavily into the mountain wall.

Gravel rolled down.

The wolf wind, crushed to the ground, howled in agony, spitting out blood continuously.

Xu Qinghe stood still, her clothes not even a speck of dust on them.

She was still flipping through the booklet in her hand, but her eyes remained breathtakingly beautiful.

Seeing this, Qin Lie's heart skipped a beat!

This woman was definitely just playing around!

If she really wanted to kill Lang Feng, he would probably be dead the moment she made her move.

"Why are you looking at me? It seems you haven't finished your mission yet."

Xu Qinghe looked up and said coquettishly.

Qin Lie immediately looked away.

If he continued watching, he was truly afraid that he would end up like Lang Feng.

The last wolf demon hadn't run more than a few steps when Qin Lie caught up with it from behind.

Cut it off!

To be honest, this Demon-Suppressing Blade is indeed quite sharp.

Qin Lie stood there catching his breath; the wounds on his body were still throbbing.

But this time he really made a killing!

The six lesser demon wolf demons each had only two attribute points, but he obtained 12 attribute points from the system alone.

The Demon Suppression Order also saw a series of meritorious achievements.

Before Qin Lie could finish celebrating, Xu Qinghe's voice came from the side.

"Are you done killing them?"

Qin Lie turned his head and saw Xu Qinghe sitting on Lang Feng's lap, legs crossed, watching him with great interest.

At this moment, Lang Feng was no longer the arrogant person he had been just moments before.

Xu Qinghe tapped Lang Feng's head with her toe, then looked at Qin Lie, her red eyes curving slightly.

"Should you do the last one, or should I?"

Qin Lie swallowed hard after seeing this.

He glanced at Lang Feng, who was being trampled under Xu Qinghe's feet, and then at Xu Qinghe's red eyes.

"Don't rush to kill them."

"We're here on an investigation mission. If we kill all the monsters and still can't get any information out of them, then the mission would be pointless, wouldn't it?"
