Wu Shattered Star River

#122 - Chapter 122: Go Ahead

The sudden appearance of a demon beast near Moon Lake Town, and a particularly powerful one at that, left everyone in disbelief.

The Kyushu Continent was home to many demon beasts, but humans were the dominant species, forcing most demon beasts to hide in deep mountains, old forests, great rivers, and perilous lands.

Demon beasts rarely appeared in areas with frequent human activity, and any that did were immediately slain.

The more powerful the demon beast, the higher its intelligence. They were all clever, knowing that human settlements were home to powerful human warriors.

They wouldn't foolishly provoke human experts, as that would only lead to their demise.

For example, if a demon beast attacked a village under the jurisdiction of Jiangjia Town, and Jiangjia Town couldn't defeat it, they would immediately seek help from Yunmeng Pavilion.

If the demon beast was strong enough that even Yunmeng Pavilion couldn't defeat it, they would seek help from the Marquis-level power, the Seven Fiends Manor. If the Seven Fiends Manor still couldn't win, they would seek help from the King-level power above them, the Jiang family.

Above the King-level powers were the Overlord-level powers, and above them all were the Immortal-level powers.

Therefore, no matter how strong a demon beast was, there would always be a stronger human martial artist capable of suppressing and killing it.

Unless a heaven-defying, ninth-order Demon Emperor appeared on the Kyushu Continent, capable of contending with the strongest human martial artists.

Otherwise, demon beasts wouldn't seek death by actively attacking human villages, towns, or cities.

Moon Lake Town was very far from the Heavenly Fox Mountain Range, separated by hundreds of miles and over a hundred villages and towns.

How could this demon beast have crossed hundreds of miles to reach here? And why hadn't the Heavenly Wolf Hall received any news? How could anyone believe their eyes?

"Roar!"

The giant beast roared as it approached, with Han Jinmao and the other three being the closest. The four of them faced a formidable enemy, drawing their weapons to prepare for the demon beast's attack.

"This..."

To the astonishment of Han Jinmao and the others, the giant beast ignored them, heading straight for the fire circle.

The fire circle was a raging fire array, controlled secretly by a divine array master. As the giant beast leaped to cross the fire circle, the divine array master controlling the raging fire array activated it.

A dark red, enormous flame swept upwards, engulfing the giant beast.

"Huh?"

Everyone was once again stunned. The raging fire enveloped the giant beast, but it easily passed through the flames without suffering any harm, as if the raging fire was fake.

"It's a Suanni beast!"

Xiao Langhou exclaimed in shock. She wasn't sure before, but now that she saw the giant beast was completely unafraid of fire, she identified the giant beast.

The Suanni beast was a fire-attribute demon beast, so it wouldn't be harmed by raging fire, let alone ground fire.

"How did this Suanni beast get here?"

King Golden Wolf and the others were filled with surprise and doubt. Historically, there had been incidents of powerful demon beasts attacking human villages and towns.

But even if this Suanni beast went mad and ran down from the Heavenly Fox Mountain Range to attack human settlements, it would wander aimlessly, attacking any human village or town it encountered, sweeping through them one by one.

This place was hundreds of miles from the Heavenly Fox Mountain Range, separated by so many villages and towns. To sweep across them all, it would take at least a few days.

Let alone a few days, the Heavenly Wolf Hall would receive the news in just one day.

But now there was no news, which meant only one thing—this Suanni beast had run straight from the Heavenly Fox Mountain Range, directly to Moon Lake Town.

"Roar!"

The Suanni beast had already charged over, and the others had no time to think. King Golden Wolf exchanged a look with Black Wolf King next to him, and Black Wolf King made his move.

How the Suanni beast got here was no longer important. What was important was to prevent it from disrupting the situation and ruining the current assured victory.

Black Wolf King transformed into a bolt of lightning. He didn't charge towards the Suanni beast, but went straight for Granny Liu.

"Granny Liu, be careful!"

Ling Yunmeng shouted, wanting to support Granny Liu, but the Azure Wolf King, who was fighting her, launched a relentless attack, trapping her.

"Woo woo!"

Zuo Yiyi, who was tied to the tree trunk, desperately shook her body, causing the cold iron chains locking her to rattle.

Granny Liu had watched her grow up and had taken care of her since she was a child, being no different from her own family. Now that Granny Liu was about to be killed, she was naturally anxious.

"Hahaha!"

Granny Liu laughed as she saw Black Wolf King charging over. Then, a raging fire suddenly ignited within her body, and her speed soared, heading straight for Blue Wolf King beside her.

"Self-detonation of the altar? You're crazy!"

Blue Wolf King was shocked and retreated quickly, a light shield appearing in his hand, rapidly enlarging.

Black Wolf King, who was charging towards this side, immediately stopped, cursing, "Madwoman!"

"Pavilion Master, Miss Yiyi, farewell in the next life! This old woman will take her leave first!"

Granny Liu glanced at Ling Yunmeng and Zuo Yiyi, her body emitting a blinding light, and then exploded with a bang, a terrifying shockwave sweeping out.

Granny Liu had been chasing Blue Wolf King all along, and the two were very close. Now, with a sudden self-detonation at such close range, how could Blue Wolf King escape?

The light shield released by Blue Wolf King was instantly torn apart, and his body was blasted away by the terrifying shockwave.

"Pfft!"

The armor on Blue Wolf King's body was torn apart, and the wolf head mask on his face fell off.

He spat out blood in mid-air, his body crashing heavily dozens of feet away. He struggled to stand up, but collapsed to the ground, clearly seriously injured.

The shockwave swept out, pushing back Black Wolf King, Qi Tian, and Xiao Langhou by several feet.

At the center of the explosion, a bottomless pit appeared, with dust billowing and obscuring the sky.

"Granny Liu!"

Ling Yunmeng roared in grief, her eyes turning red, her aura surging as she continuously slashed her long sword at the Azure Wolf King in front of her.

"Roar!"

The Suanni beast charged over. It had originally charged towards Black Wolf King, but was pushed back more than ten feet by the powerful shockwave.

Its eyes turned, and its body turned towards the fallen Blue Wolf King.

"Fifth Brother!"

King Golden Wolf was shocked to see the Suanni beast charging towards Blue Wolf King.

He suddenly unleashed a black light, releasing the divine power Black Clouds Overwhelming the City, attempting to interfere with the Suanni beast and rescue Blue Wolf King.

"Whoosh whoosh!"

Unfortunately, his divine power was released too late. The Suanni beast flashed, reaching Blue Wolf King.

It opened its mouth and spat out a mouthful of flames, and Blue Wolf King was immediately engulfed in a raging fire.

"Ah—"

A heart-wrenching scream rang out as Blue Wolf King rolled on the ground, burned to a crisp, and died in just two breaths.

Black mist spread out, turning everyone in the field deaf and blind. Blue Wolf King's screams still echoed in their ears.

The Suanni beast's powerful beastly aura still enveloped them. Not being able to see the Suanni beast in the black mist made them feel even more suppressed.

"Roar!"

A huge beast roar sounded, followed by several muffled sounds, like the sound of weapons colliding with a monster's claws.

Clearly, the Suanni beast was fighting another martial artist, but it was unknown who it was fighting.

Before long, the mystery was revealed as Black Wolf King anxiously roared, "Big Brother, quickly retract your divine power! This beast is unaffected by the black mist. I'm at a great disadvantage! Ah—"

Black Wolf King's words were cut short by a scream. The scream was the same as Blue Wolf King's, clearly engulfed in flames.

"Second Brother!"

King Golden Wolf's expression changed drastically, and he quickly retracted his divine power. The remaining wolf kings and two wolf queens showed grief in their eyes. Judging from the screams, Black Wolf King was likely dead.

As expected!

When the black mist dissipated, everyone looked around and saw that Black Wolf King had turned into charcoal, and even the armor on his body had turned into molten iron...

The Suanni beast had just charged down and annihilated two high-level experts in the blink of an eye.

The overwhelming combat power of a high-level demon beast made everyone's heart tremble.
