Desperate Love: Rebirth of the Demon King

But at the critical moment, Dongfang Bubai suddenly withdrew his move and deliberately revealed a flaw.

Seeing this, Linghu Chong did not hesitate to use all his strength to strike, and the sword directly pierced Dongfang Bubai's chest. Linghu Chong slapped him hard with his palm again.

Dongfang Bubai fell to the ground, his clothes stained with blood. He looked at Linghu Chong with a bitter smile on his face.

His last words before his death were: So this is the price you have to pay for trusting someone...

After he said this, he closed his eyes forever.

Linghu Chong stared blankly at Dongfang Bubai's body, his heart full of contradictions and pain. He didn't know whether his decision was right, but at this moment, everything was irreversible.

"How did Dongfang Bubai conceal the evil spirit in his body?" Helan asked curiously after listening to Yu Xiaobai's story.

"..." At this moment, Yu Xiaobai felt as if a thousand alpacas were flying through her heart.

"Xiao Yu...why don't you speak?" Helan Ruofeng asked again when he saw that she ignored him.

"I told you this story not to make you pay attention to this, but you really know how to grasp the key points." Yu Xiaobai wanted to cry but had no tears. Just now she thought he was extremely smart, but now she felt that he was an idiot.

Helan Ruofeng, who knew how to grasp the key points, immediately laughed and said, "This Dongfang Bubai is actually the leader of the Demon Cult, and Linghu Chong is also the leader of the righteous faction. How could they not discover each other's identity? They must both know it well, but they cherish each other, so they don't tell each other." Helan Ruofeng said with a chuckle.

"That's good enough." Yu Xiaobai was reluctantly satisfied.

Helan Ruofeng continued, "It's rare to meet a bosom friend in troubled times, so one must cherish him very much. But when the time comes to decide the winner between good and evil, the friendship between the two is not worth mentioning compared to protecting the righteous path. Therefore, Linghu Chong killed Dongfang Bubai. Dongfang Bubai must not want to see him in trouble, so he resolutely chose to die."

"..." Yu Xiaobai felt depressed. When she first watched The Smiling, Proud Wanderer, her understanding was: People in the world have no choice but to do what they want. Since she cannot change this fact, she should just enjoy the present.

"If you were Linghu Chong, what would you do?" Yu Xiaobai couldn't help but ask.

"Hmm?" Helan Ruofeng hummed, but did not answer her directly.

At this time, they were already very close to the City Defense Department and could vaguely hear noisy sounds coming from there.

When they got closer, they were frightened by the shouting and the immortal formation inside.

"Heiduo..." Yu Xiaobai was very alert. Her first reaction was to call the bodyguard out. She remembered Lan Moqiu's words in her heart and dared not forget them at any time.

Sure enough, Hei Duo appeared immediately and stood guard beside Yu Xiaobai vigilantly, staring at the City Defense Division with his sharp eyes.

"Xiao Yu, you stay here and don't go in, okay?" Helan Ruofeng quickly put her down, turned around and looked at her seriously and warned her.

"I know. You...be careful." This was the only thing Yu Xiaobai could say.

At this moment, she didn't even have the courage to fight alongside him. And he never asked why from beginning to end, but instead told her to stay away from him.

"Don't worry, my master is a god. Wait for me here and protect yourself." Helan Ruofeng looked at Yu Xiaobai, then glanced at Hei Duo, and immediately turned around and rushed towards the City Defense Division.

The City Defense Department was already in chaos at this time, with injured immortal disciples, monsters, and soldiers everywhere.

Some of them were wailing on the ground, while others were motionless, and it was unclear whether they had fainted or were dead.

At this moment, Xiao Yu is fighting against Zhou Ze, Ao San, and Gu Yunnuo on his own.

These three people are worthy of being the rising stars of the immortal sect. Facing Xiao Yu, one of the five powerful elders in the demon clan, they did not show the slightest fear.

The three of them cooperated very well, advancing and retreating in time, and attacking together, and they actually managed to fight Xiao Yu to a draw.

The other disciples joined forces to besiege the other demon tribes.

As soon as Helan Ruofeng arrived, he joined the battle between Zhou Ze and the other two without saying a word, causing the originally balanced situation to tilt instantly.

As soon as Helan Ruofeng's sermon came out, Xiao Yu suddenly felt that something was wrong. The other party actually had the cultivation level of an immortal.

He narrowly avoided the attack and immediately asked with vigilance, "Who are you? Someone from the upper realm?"

There are no such young immortals in the human world, unless they are from the upper realm.

"Who I am has nothing to do with you." After saying this, Helan Ruofeng quickly summoned Sermon and used a more fierce killing move.

"You are just an immortal, and you still want to kill me?" Xiao Yu raised his hand, and a thick fog as red as flames rushed towards everyone.

"The three levels of karma, namely, the one from the king, the one from the god, and the one from the abyss, are for my use. Command..." Helan Ruofeng decisively used the Samadhi True Fire to fight against the thick fog.

As the order was given, the flames fought against the thick fog, which retreated and disappeared in an instant.

"Hehe..." Xiao Yu smiled contemptuously and attacked again. Ghosts of all sizes flew out from his palm like puppets and attacked the crowd.

Each of them had a green face and fangs, was extremely ugly, and had skinny limbs. They opened their bloody mouths and bared their teeth and claws and pounced towards the crowd.

"What is this?" The new disciples who came out for the trial had never seen such a scene and they were all screaming in fear.

"They are the living beings devoured by this demon. They were absorbed by the demon and cultivated into a common soul-controlling technique." Ao San explained loudly.

"It turns out that this devil has killed so many lives. We must avenge the dead lives today and never let this devil go." Gu Yunnuo also roared indignantly.

"All disciples of the Yuling Sect, listen up, return to your positions, and activate the Heavenly Punishment..." With Huo Ning's order, the originally chaotic scene instantly became orderly.

He looked at the monsters in front of him, secretly surprised at their cultivation and brutality. Facing such an enemy, he had to fight quickly to ensure the least damage.

At the same time, disciples from other sects on the field evacuated one after another, leaving enough space for the Yuling Sect to set up the Tianzhu formation.

The disciples of the Yuling Sect's Tianzhu Formation returned to their respective positions as quickly as possible, ready to wait for orders.

Xiao Yu's men did seem a little stupid. They didn't understand why the disciples of the Immortal Sect suddenly evacuated, nor did they realize that they were about to fall into a desperate situation.

By the time they reacted, they were completely surrounded and unable to escape.

"Start..." Huo Ning gave the order again, his voice firm and decisive.

The Tianzhu Formation was activated with the concerted efforts of all the disciples of the Yuling Sect.

Suddenly, countless dense swords rose from all directions, surrounding the monsters in the formation.

As the arrows were shot out, they began to flee in panic to avoid the arrows, even pulling and pushing each other, trying to find a safe place.

Some even ignored the safety of their companions and directly pulled them over to use as shields to protect themselves from arrows.

"The power of Heavenly Punishment is truly formidable." The people of Chonghai Sect felt their blood boiling with excitement.

As the monsters in the formation slowly fell one by one, the disciples from other sects on the periphery began to cheer and shout "Great kill".

Xiao Yu's men were almost wiped out by the Heavenly Punishment Formation, leaving only himself and four powerful juniors to fight.

He glanced at his men who were already beyond saving, and began to regret his impulsive behavior and arrogance.

"Today, I must kill him." Ao San roared again.

Zhou Ze did not say anything, but still cooperated with them to besiege Xiao Yu.

Gu Yunnuo was also concentrating on finding an opportunity to attack Xiao Yu.

Helan Ruofeng also fully cooperated with these three people at this time.

As time went by, they worked together to break Xiao Yu's spirit-controlling technique.

Seeing that his two best puppetry techniques had been broken, Xiao Yu could only turn his mind into fighting power. He directly summoned a black long sword and began to attack several people head-on.

From the initial battle of magic to the current sword fight, the four of them cooperated well. Gradually, Ao San and Gu Yunnuo, who were good at magic, fell behind and could not keep up with Helan Ruofeng and Zhou Ze.

"You two can retreat first!" Zhou Ze roared, his voice as loud as a bell.

"Who are you looking down on?" Ao San shouted back without giving in.

"You are good at magic, and he is good at swordsmanship. Asking you to retreat now does not mean that I look down on you." Gu Yunnuo explained for Zhou Ze, and then she withdrew from the battle circle without hesitation.

"Thank you..." Although Ao San was somewhat unwilling, he still listened to the advice and quickly left the battle circle.

Only Helan Ruofeng and Zhou Ze were left on the scene to fight against Xiao Yu.

Both of them are swordsmen. The sword skills in Helan Ruofeng's hand are as sharp as a storm, while the sword in Zhou Ze's hand is like a rainbow that disappears into the water without a trace.

Xiao Yu was not afraid of the combined attack of the two. He used the long sword in his hand flexibly, sometimes defending and sometimes counterattacking.

The three figures shuttled between their respective moves like ghosts, and a fierce confrontation ensued between them.

"I didn't expect that after not setting foot in the human world for a long time, this small human world is really full of talented people." Xiao Yu has gradually become disadvantaged, but still said so.

Suddenly, Helan Ruofeng found the right moment and hit Xiao Yu in the abdomen with a sword, and then struck out with a palm, hitting him in the chest.

Xiao Yu staggered and fell directly to the ground. He endured the pain and stood up quickly, staring at Helan Ruofeng with fearless and extremely fierce eyes.

Seeing this, Yun Qing suddenly shouted, "Activate the Tiangang Formation and kill him."

Upon hearing this, all the disciples of Yunji Villa began to line up.

"You guys think you can kill me, Xiao Yu?" Xiao Yu hardened his heart and swung his long sword directly at Yun Qing who had just spoken.

"Big Brother, save me..." Yun Qing shouted at Zhou Ze.

Zhou Ze raised his sword to block Xiao Yu's attack.

Helan Ruofeng took the opportunity to attack again and stabbed Xiao Yu in the shoulder armor on the back with a sword.

"Ah..." Xiao Yu's back was injured, and he couldn't use his arms, so he could only turn around and run away.

Helan Ruofeng chased after him without saying a word.

"Let's go too..." Gu Yunnuo and Ao San looked at each other and followed him out.

Outside, Yu Xiaobai and Heiduo were waiting quietly. After about an hour, she began to feel a little restless.

At this moment, the injured Xiao Yu escaped.

When he saw Yu Xiaobai, he thought he was just an ordinary human, thinking that he could catch him to heal his wounds. So he stretched out his left hand, which could use strength, towards Yu Xiaobai without hesitation.

"Heiduo, come on..." Yu Xiaobai dodged Xiao Yu's clutches and shouted.

Hei Duo stood in front of her in an instant and bit Xiao Yu's left hand with just one bite.

"Evil spirit?" Xiao Yu was horrified. He had a bad start today. Each character he met was more ruthless than the last.

Heiduo didn't care about that. She took his hand in her mouth and started biting it.

"Xiao Yu..." Helan Ruofeng rushed over immediately upon seeing this situation.

"Damn it..." Xiao Yu had no choice but to take drastic measures. He gritted his teeth and raised his right hand to tear off his left hand at the wrist. He then teleported away from the scene.

"Xiao Yu, are you okay?" Helan Ruofeng was not in a hurry to chase Xiao Yu, but turned Yu Xiaobai over and over to check him.

"Stop shaking, I'm fine, I'm fine..." Yu Xiaobai stretched out a hand to stop him from shaking her.

"Master, you're fine. I'm busy and I'm not full." Hei Duo bared his mouth and looked at Helan Ruofeng.

"How is it?" Ao San, who had caught up with Helan Ruofeng, asked hurriedly when he saw him.

"Let him run away..." Helan Ruofeng replied.

"What's going on?" Gu Yunnuo asked in confusion.

"He actually wanted to catch my master. I ate his left hand, which tasted pretty good, but he ran away." Hei Duo said while licking his tongue with a look of regret.

"What? His hand is injured? Chase him quickly, I must kill him today." After Ao San said this, he chased after him regardless of anything.

"This Ao San? He really is as impatient as the rumors say!" Gu Yunnuo praised. She thought again and shouted, "Wait for me!" She quickly followed Ao San.

Helan Ruofeng looked at the direction they were chasing in but did not follow. However, Huo Ning followed with a group of disciples.

"Mr. Helan, didn't you chase that devil with them?" Huo Ning asked when he saw Helan Ruofeng.

"His left hand was bitten off by Heiduo. I want to stay with Xiaoyu, you guys go and chase him!" Helan Ruofeng said directly.

He thought that Xiao Yu, who had lost his hand, would not be able to achieve anything great. Even if he did not go, he believed that Ao San and Gu Yunnuo could kill him together. Moreover, he was worried that Yu Xiaobai would be in danger again. After all, Hei Duo was sometimes very greedy, and he was afraid that he would ignore Yu Xiaobai.

"Okay! Everyone else, follow me." Huo Ning did not force Helan Ruofeng, and left with his men.

"Master Helan, you and Xiaoyu stay in the city guard office first. We will also go out to track down that devil Xiao Yu. We must not let him escape today, otherwise there will be endless troubles." Zhou Ze said in a serious tone.

"Okay." Helan Ruofeng nodded in response.

Zhou Ze and his group also left.

Seeing that Helan Ruofeng looked a little serious, Yu Xiaobai couldn't help but ask, "Who are they chasing? The leader of the demon tribe?"

Helan Ruofeng glanced at her, took her hand and walked towards the City Defense Department, saying as he walked: "He is one of the many elders in the demon world, and his cultivation is unfathomable. It took Senior Brother Zhou Ze, Ao San, Gu Yunnuo and I working together to injure him by chance."

"So powerful? Fortunately you hurt him, Heiduo bit him again." Yu Xiaobai said fearfully.

"During the duel just now, he used some kind of soul-controlling technique, which he developed after absorbing the energy of many living beings. Those tens of thousands of living beings were killed by him and their essence was eaten." Helan Ruofeng said, with an indescribably solemn expression on his face.

"Ruofeng, Heiduo and I will stay here, you go and help them kill this demon elder. He deserves to die." Yu Xiaobai let go of Helan Ruofeng's hand and said seriously.

"But..." Helan Ruofeng wanted to say that he was worried about her.

"No buts. Have you forgotten that I am also very strong? And I also have Heiduo, who is a veritable ancient ferocious beast!" Yu Xiaobai said bravely.

She knew that Helan Ruofeng also wanted to go with everyone to find the evil demon, but he stayed because he was worried about her.

"Is it really okay? How about you stay with me?" Helan Ruofeng thought about it and decided that he should keep Yu Xiaobai by his side.
