Tang Dynasty Demon Suppression Division

Li Yuan activated his spiritual senses and vaguely sensed a faint demonic aura around him.

"There's an ambush!" Li Yuan shouted sharply. "Protect Master Zhang!"

Before the words were finished, two violent bursts of demonic energy suddenly erupted from the forest and rushed straight at the carriage.

Xuan Yi's expression changed drastically. He immediately drew his longsword and shouted, "Form the formation!"

"Protect our Master!"

"Hehehe..."

A pitch-black figure hovered in front of the carriage, seemingly formed from countless shadows, without a fixed shape. Sometimes it transformed into a human form, and sometimes into a cloud of black mist. Wherever it passed, even light was swallowed up.

"Zhang Daojing, I never thought you'd end up like this!"

The shadow let out a piercing laugh, "You killed my brother and destroyed my cave back then, today I will make you pay for your debt in blood!"

The other figure was entirely bluish-gray, with skin like dried tree bark, and two curved horns on its head, exuding the aura of a demon king.

He roared, "Zhang Daojing, you destroyed my cultivation; today you must pay for it!"

The two demon kings joined forces, actually intending to take revenge on Zhang Daojing when he lost all his cultivation.

"So it's the Demon King of Wujian and the Demon King of Cangwu. How have you two been?"

Zhang Zhenren's calm voice came from inside the carriage, which angered the two men so much that they roared and attacked at the same time.

The disciples of the Celestial Master's Mansion quickly drew their swords and formed a formation, protecting the carriage in the center. Xuan Yi took the lead and thrust out with his sword.

"Celestial Master Sword - Demon-Slaying Style!"

The golden sword energy was fierce and slashed towards the Demon King of the Boundless Realm, splitting him in two.

Xuan Yi was taken aback, not expecting his opponent to be so weak. But before he could even feel happy, he saw the opponent's figure solidify again.

"Tsk tsk, is that all you've got?"

The Demon King of the Boundless World sneered disdainfully, his figure flickered, and he transformed into a black shadow, instantly appearing in front of Xuan Yi and striking out with a claw.

Xuan Yi hurriedly parried with his sword, but with a loud clang, he was sent flying and crashed into a large tree, breaking it in half. He spat out a mouthful of blood, and his sword almost slipped from his hand.

"Junior Uncle!"

The disciples of the Celestial Master's Mansion exclaimed in surprise.

Seeing this, Li Yuan was about to step forward to help, but Xuan Yi turned around and shouted at him, "This is none of your business! This is a matter for our Celestial Master's Mansion!"

Li Yuan frowned and stopped walking.

Inside the carriage, Zhang Daojing calmly observed the battle outside through the curtain. He beckoned to Li Yuan, signaling him to come closer.

Li Yuan rode his horse to the carriage and whispered, "Master, Daoist Xuan Yi, he..."

"Let him hit you."

Zhang Daojing said helplessly, "Xuan Yi is an abandoned baby that I found at the foot of the mountain. I raised him, taught him Taoist magic, and protected him. I have never let him suffer any hardship."

"This child is naive and ignorant, and thinks he is invincible."

He sighed, his eyes filled with guilt: "I have lost all my cultivation and my days are numbered. I will no longer be able to protect him. If I don't teach him a lesson, he will suffer even greater losses sooner or later after I am gone."

Li Yuan remained silent. No wonder the True Man had been silent these past few days. It wasn't that he couldn't see Xuan Yi's arrogance, but rather that he deliberately kept quiet, letting Xuan Yi run into a wall and learn to be respectful.

This is a teacher who, in the final moments of his life, used his silence to give his students his last lesson.

In the arena, Xuan Yi got up from the ground, wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, a fierce glint flashing in his eyes, and turned to shout, "Form the Seven Star Sword Formation!"

"yes!"

He leaped into the arena, and the six disciples of the Celestial Master's Mansion behind him quickly changed positions, their long swords pointing to the sky. Seven sword energies converged in the air, forming a huge seven-star pattern, which pressed down on the two demon kings.

The Demon King of the Boundless Realm paused slightly: "Seven Star Sword Formation? Interesting."

"Brother Cangwu, I'll go!"

With a swift movement, it transformed into seven black shadows, each lunging towards one of the seven people.

"boom!"

The black shadow exploded, and seven figures were sent flying backward. The Seven Star Sword Formation collapsed instantly after only a few breaths.

Xuan Yi's face turned pale instantly. He never expected that even the Seven Star Sword Formation couldn't defeat the Boundless Demon King.

Behind him was his master, and Li Yuan was watching from the side. It was said that he had single-handedly killed three demon kings. He originally thought he could do it too, but now he was in a dilemma.

His eyes darkened, and he gritted his teeth as he took out a golden talisman from his pocket and formed a hand seal.

This talisman was bestowed by the Celestial Master and contains the full power of a peak Qi Condensation Realm cultivator. However, its use is conditional; it will burn one's own essence and blood. It was specifically reserved for him to save his life.

Seeing this, Master Zhang shook his head slightly but remained silent.

Talismans flew out from the arena, emitting brilliant golden light. Before the moves could be formed, the Cangwu Demon King suddenly made a move, his withered fingers suddenly extending and wrapping around Xuan Yi's wrist, twisting it forcefully.

"Snap!"

Xuan Yi was in excruciating pain and let out a scream. The talisman slipped from his hand and fell to the ground. The Demon King of Cangwu then struck him in the chest with a palm, sending him flying. He coughed up blood and couldn't even stand up.

"Junior Uncle!"

The disciples of the Celestial Master's Mansion cried out and tried to rush forward, but were blocked by the Cangwu Demon King and could not get close at all.

"Hahaha!"

The Demon King of the Boundless Realm walked step by step toward the carriage, letting out a triumphant, sinister laugh: "Zhang Daojing, your disciple is crippled. No one can save you now."

"Today is your death day!"

He raised his hand, and the black mist condensed into a giant claw, which slammed down on the carriage.

A silver-white blade of light, like a shooting star from outer space, struck down in an instant!

"boom!"

Sensing the fierce and violent intent emanating from the blade, the Demon King of the Boundless Realm felt a chill in his heart and instinctively dodged. The blade swept past with a whoosh, and three claws flew into the sky.

Black blood splattered.

"Aaaaaah!"

This strike severed his true form. The Demon King of the Boundless Realm let out a painful roar, staggered back several feet, and his body scattered with a bang before reforming.

He looked over in shock and anger, only to see Li Yuan standing in front of the carriage, a knife in one hand.

"If you want to mess with Master Zhang, you'll have to get past me first."

The Demon King of the Boundless Realm looked down at his severed finger, where black blood gushed out and dripped onto the ground with a sizzling sound.

It raised its head, its eyes, hidden in the black mist, fixed intently on Li Yuan: "Who are you?"

"Demon Suppression Division, Li Yuan."

Starlight shimmered on the blade, reflecting his calm face. "Demon King of Wujian, Demon King of Cangwu, I don't care about your grudges with Master Zhang, but with me here today, you can't touch him."

"You're Li Yuan?"

The two demon kings quickly exchanged a glance. Of course, they had heard of Li Yuan's name; he had already become famous throughout the world after the battle at Xuefeng Mountain.

What they didn't expect was that this legendary figure was actually a teenager.

"Li Yuan." The Demon King of the Boundless Realm's voice held a hint of apprehension. "This is a personal feud between me and Zhang Daojing, and it has nothing to do with you."

"If you step aside, I can pretend nothing happened; otherwise..."

He gave a sinister smile and said in a blustering but cowardly tone.

"Otherwise what?"

Li Yuan interrupted him without any politeness. He had been watching the battle from the sidelines and had already seen that the seemingly strange Demon King of the Infernal Realm was actually just putting on a show, and that his combat strength was comparable to that of the Black Feather Demon King.

Therefore, he did not take the Demon King of Wujian seriously, but the Demon King of Cangwu was clearly a level above him in terms of combat power.

"If you remain obstinate and refuse to see the light, you will suffer the same fate as the meerkats and black dragons, your head severed from your body!"

The Demon King's pupils constricted sharply. He knew very well the strength of the Mongoose Demon King, who was also from Jiangnan Road; it was definitely superior to his.
