Chapter 24 How come my brother is so amazing?
The rain was torrential.
Washing over the muddy slopes.
A small leader of a monster, over ten feet tall, with a human body and a snake's tail, stood impatiently at the cave entrance, urging:
"Hurry up, do you want to die from dawdling?!"
It held a bone staff in its hand, constantly tapping the ground and splashing mud and water.
Dozens of monstrous snakes of varying sizes were scrambling to emerge from the honeycomb-like holes, their hissing mingling with the sound of rain, creating a chaotic and panicked scene.
"Keep up!"
"Spread out and head into the woods!"
As the snake demon leader gave instructions, he turned his head to look towards the village well, his vertical pupils filled with worry.
"I wonder if Master will be able to escape successfully..."
Immediately, a venomous glint appeared in its eyes, and it gritted its teeth, saying:
"Those damned dogs from the Demon Slayer Division are like persistent ghosts! Just wait, when the Mistress returns after her cultivation is complete, she will definitely chew these scumbags in official robes to pieces and devour them alive!"
Just as it was cursing and swearing, a sudden sense of alarm arose in its heart.
"who!?"
It suddenly turned its head.
Its response was a blindingly bright glint of light.
In a moment of desperation, the snake demon instinctively reached out and pulled a companion who was about to emerge to its side.
"puff--"
A flash of sword light, and a fountain of blood gushed into the sky!
A hideous snake head flew high into the air, its blood and filth mingling with the rainwater, quickly spreading into a patch of spiky red.
Jiang Mu killed the snake demon leader with a single strike, then floated back several steps, just avoiding the foul-smelling venom sprayed by the snake demon leader, and landed steadily on a protruding rock.
"The Demon Slayer!?"
The snake demon leader's expression turned extremely ugly when he saw the tight-fitting clothes Jiang Mu was wearing.
How is that possible?
Weren't all those people lured there?
How could anyone have found this hidden escape route?
Jiang Mu held his sword horizontally in front of him, letting the rain slide down the blade. With his other hand, he stuffed the domino that had absorbed most of his aura into his robes.
It was with this item that he was able to sneak up on the other person without making a sound.
Jiang Mu said calmly:
"You are surrounded. Surrender immediately."
Surrounded?
Upon hearing this, the snake demons froze in fright.
The previously orderly escape team instantly descended into chaos.
They looked around in terror, flicking their tongues frantically, trying to find the people lying in ambush.
however--
I looked left and right but there was no one there.
Looking back... there was only a kid standing dumbly in the grass.
"two?"
The snake demon leader was stunned for a long time, his expression turning strange.
Jiang Mu nodded, readily admitting, "That's right, just the two of us."
The snake demon leader's mouth twitched.
A surge of furious anger, as if he had been tricked, rushed to his head.
"Fuck your grandma!"
The snake demon leader roared, "Two people dare to boast about surrounding us? Are you out of your mind?!"
Moreover, neither of these two individuals clearly possessed any star power enhancement.
The description states that the user is a sand sculpture demon slayer at the Body Tempering Realm.
"Kill these two idiots!"
The snake demon leader roared and swung his bone staff forward.
The demons roared, and a bloody wind arose.
Dozens of snake demons twisted their bodies and rushed towards the two of them.
"Well done!"
The rocks beneath Jiang Mu's feet crumbled, and he charged directly into the demon horde, his sword sweeping up a curtain of rain.
He unleashed the Eight Forms of Heaven-Breaking to their fullest potential at this moment.
The technique is a brand new secret skill that has reached the pinnacle of perfection.
On the other side, Zhang Xiaokui was internally devastated.
As a subordinate, seeing his superiors draw their swords and charge out, he naturally had no reason to cower in fear.
But the problem is...
Damn it, so many monsters, they're just throwing their lives away.
Demons of the same level are inherently slightly stronger than cultivators, making even a one-on-one fight difficult.
Are we really going to fight these twenty-odd second-tier demons?
What are the advantages?
"grass!"
He could only grit his teeth and roar, bracing himself to swing his sword at the several first-tier demonic snakes that were lunging at him from the side.
Rain and blood mingled in the air.
Jiang Mu's figure weaved through the swarm of snakes, the raindrops being pulled and shredded by the force of his blade, turning into a cloud of blood mist!
Broken scales and severed bodies flew up continuously.
A continuous stream of demonic energy rose from the dead demon corpse, entered his body, and transformed into surging blood and true energy, replenishing the energy he had consumed after the outburst.
In an instant, he killed more than ten snake demons.
"What kind of monster is this!?"
The snake demon leader was dumbfounded.
Is this the Body Tempering Stage?
Seeing its subordinates suffer heavy casualties, it could no longer sit still and roared as it personally joined the battle.
Its thick snake tail suddenly lashed out at Jiang Mu, sweeping out with tremendous force.
Jiang Mu stepped aside to avoid it.
The hard scales scraped against a rock about half a person's height next to him, and with a "boom," the rock was swept into pieces like tofu, sending stone chips flying everywhere.
A demonic creature at the second-stage Great Perfection level is only one step away from condensing its core.
Its strength is far beyond that of ordinary demons.
However, it was fast, but Jiang Mu's knife was even faster!
Just as the snake's tail swept down again, Jiang Mu's body twisted strangely, and the light of his blade swept upwards along the sweeping snake's tail.
Shila-
With a cutting sound, the hard snake scales were directly cleaved open by the blade, leaving a wound several feet long.
Black and red demon blood gushed out like a fountain.
"ah!!"
The snake demon leader let out a shrill scream as his massive body was sent flying backward by the force of the blade, crashing heavily into the mud and rolling several times before finally coming to a stop.
It scrambled to its feet in terror, and seeing Jiang Mu approaching again with his knife, it lost all courage, its eyes filled with fear.
"Charge! All of you, charge!"
It roared at the remaining lesser demons around it.
Driven by instinct, several first-tier demons pounced on Jiang Mu, attempting to stop him.
The snake demon leader suddenly turned and charged towards Zhang Xiaokui, who was fighting fiercely on the other side.
By this time, Zhang Xiaokui was covered in blood and was panting heavily.
If Jiang Mu hadn't drawn so much hatred and attracted most of the firepower, he would have been devoured by these cold-blooded beasts long ago.
Zhang Xiaokui, who was desperately wielding his knife to parry a vicious snake's attack, suddenly felt a chill run down his spine.
I looked up.
Suddenly, the snake demon leader charged towards him.
"You bastard, why are you coming at me!"
Startled, he did a clumsy roll and rolled behind a large rock.
However, the snake demon leader didn't even glance at him.
With a flick of its thick tail in the mud, the snake darted away desperately toward the dense forest on the other side of the barren slope.
"..."
Zhang Xiaokui was stunned.
Whoosh!
A figure swept past his head.
"You take care of the remaining crippled ones!"
Jiang Mu's voice came through the rain.
Zhang Xiaokui looked up and only managed to see his master carrying a knife, chasing after the snake demon leader, before disappearing into the depths of the rain.
"this……"
Zhang Xiaokui dazedly got up from the ground.
He looked around.
At the foot of this small hillside, a swarm of snake carcasses lay scattered about.
Rainwater washed down and gathered into a crimson stream.
The remaining few snake demons that were not dead were writhing and hissing in pain on the ground, having lost their fighting ability.
This scene was like a scene from hell.
Zhang Xiao Kui swallowed hard, his saliva mixed with rainwater, his hand gripping the knife trembling slightly.
"Brother, our sect leader... is not human."
Unbeknownst to Zhang Xiaokui, a hazy, slender figure floated gently like mist among the branches of the ancient tree above his head.
The girl tilted her head, gazing at the corpses of demons scattered on the ground.
"Brother, how did you become so amazing? Hehe, this is really interesting."
Swish!
His figure flashed.
The girl drifted off in the direction Jiang Mu had left.
