Chapter 936: Chapter 575: Assault, Rampaging Insect Demons! (Double-Length)

"How did you know?" Song Ping’an asked in a deep voice.

He already faintly realized that the visitors had a purpose beyond merely trading Broken Sun Gold.

The visitor merely let out a strange laugh, continuing his steps.

"President, something’s wrong!" The accompanying martial artists sensed the malice emanating from the visitors and quickly drew their swords.

But it was too late; those tall, thin figures tore off their dust coats, revealing semi-human insect bodies covered in shells, and a large amount of demon qi began to spread.

"Dammit, it’s Insect Demons!"

Song Ping’an was also shocked, never imagining that disguised insect race would come looking in human territory.

Their combat strength was certainly enough to deal with ordinary human expedition teams; after all, true Martial Arts Grandmaster wouldn’t stoop to expedition team business.

But demons had appeared, and they mentioned Song Changming, so things couldn’t be simple.

The other side had planned ahead, not targeting him, but rather the Human King Song Changming behind him!

"Go!" Song Ping’an shouted.

"Too late!" Numerous insect demons raised a terrifying demon wind, completely enveloping the group.

"Kill!" All the martial artists attacked.

About the time it takes for a cup of tea.

Several insect demons lay motionless on the ground, and Song Ping’an held a piece of talisman paper.

Scattered energy overlapped heavily, as if countless Flying Sabers slicing through the void.

As the talisman paper exhausted its energy and turned to dust, the Flying Sabers formed by this energy disappeared.

This Level Seven talisman paper was undoubtedly one of Song Changming’s life-saving charms for Song Ping’an.

The power of Level Seven talisman paper, needless to say, can hardly be stopped by even Great Demon Level enemies, let alone these not-so-great demons.

A single piece of talisman paper directly wiped out these insect demons.

The innate martial artists in the arena were still shaken, and some were already injured in the brief moments.

Song Ping’an realized the difficulty in matching their strength, hence he was forced to use this precious Level Seven talisman paper.

"Is everyone alright?" Song Ping’an rubbed his somewhat drowsy head and asked.

Though the power of Level Seven talisman is great, it has one downside; activating the talisman and keeping it running also requires a large consumption of spiritual power.

With Song Ping’an’s spiritual power reserves in the Nether Sea, he could barely afford the use of such a Level Seven talisman.

"Thanks to the president, everyone is fine."

"But what in the world is going on, how could such powerful insect demons target us?!"

Several accompanying martial artists said with a grim expression.

"Let’s return first, and then investigate." Song Ping’an frowned and said.

Just then, a more terrifying demon qi spread around, plunging everyone’s mood to the bottom.

"You truly are useless trash who can’t accomplish anything."

Accompanied by this voice seemingly from hell, a terrifying aura engulfed Song Ping’an and the others.

"G-Great Demon!!" The martial artists were scared out of their wits!

...

Southern Yuan Province.

After spending the New Year at Song Mansion, Su Qingqing used the Treasure Mirror’s Teleportation Gate again, heading to Fox Mountain to spend some time with her mother.

"Sister Qingqing, come play!"

Soon after finishing her cultivation, Su Qingqing heard Little Phoenix’s call, and couldn’t help but open her eyes.

"Mother."

In the cave dwelling, Xi Yanxue smiled faintly.

"Go ahead, but be very careful."

"Alright." Su Qingqing then flew out of the cave dwelling.

These days, Little Phoenix often came to find Su Qingqing for some entertainment.

The two would regularly find a vacant, untouched spot and practice their newly refined skills.

Little Phoenix had inherited the Celestial Phoenix legacy, freshly hatched like undergoing Nirvana Rebirth.

Currently, Su Qingqing was not only a Martial Arts Grandmaster but also a Great Demon’s expert who had refined her Heart Core.

The combination of both made Su Qingqing’s true strength far exceed that of equivalent-level Martial Arts Grandmasters or similarly cultivated Great Demons.

Both sides were in a period of rapidly ascending strength, so their exchanges were more beneficial in reinforcing their grasp of their powers.

"Sister Qingqing, I recently learned to toss Fire Wheels, let me show you." After reaching a desolate land away from Fox Mountain, Little Phoenix said standing mid-air.

Though Su Qingqing didn’t understand what Little Phoenix meant by Fire Wheels, it didn’t stop her from accepting Little Phoenix’s challenge.

Just as both were about to use their demon techniques, the earth suddenly surged in the distance.

A giant centipede tens of feet long suddenly emerged slightly, then darted away.

"Insect Race Great Demon!" Su Qingqing stopped abruptly, looking at the giant centipede that had burrowed underground.

Whether from Fox Mountain’s stance or her master’s many grudges against the Eight-eyed White-haired Worm Race made her harbor no goodwill toward this insect race.

Seeing such an openly traversing insect race great demon suddenly within the domain controlled by Fox Mountain in southern Yuan Province was undoubtedly a provocation, perhaps even with ulterior motives.

Su Qingqing contemplated whether to inform her mother or to intercept this insect race great demon directly.

Meanwhile, Little Phoenix felt a keen perception, suddenly unsurely asking Su Qingqing.

"Sister Qingqing, why does that insect race great demon have Uncle Ping’an’s aura?"

Upon hearing this, Su Qingqing felt alarmed, immediately spreading her perception.

The next moment, she truly sensed Song Ping’an’s aura on that insect race great demon.

Though faint, it was indeed present.

"This is bad!"

Su Qingqing’s expression changed; she couldn’t think too much and immediately chased after the insect race great demon.

Her eyes blinked, instantly transforming into a pair of pink pupils, firmly locking onto the demon’s aura, heading deeper into Yuan Province.

The insect race great demon’s movement wasn’t particularly fast, and within a few minutes of pursuit, Su Qingqing caught up, unleashing a massive wave of sword qi that fractured the earth.

The insect race great demon had no choice but to emerge.

Before the insect race great demon could retaliate, a mass of golden Flame Light Wheel fell from the sky, smashing onto the demon’s carapace harshly.

The exceptionally tough demon body surprisingly couldn’t withstand the Flame Light Wheel’s impact, causing fluids to splatter.

The great demon let out a screeching insect cry, painfully enduring, yet unable to stop the Flame Light Wheel’s continued slicing.

The next moment, the entire demon body was cleaved into two halves.

Descending from the sky, Little Phoenix wielded wings, creating waves of heat and flames, scorching the insect race great demon.

"Wait!"

Perhaps with Little Phoenix and Su Qingqing displaying unexpectedly fierce combat prowess, the insect race great demon couldn’t withstand transforming into a bloody human form.

His legs were broken, face hideous, holding a captive Song Ping’an in one hand.

"If you don’t want him dead, stop!"

The great demon initially sought to leverage Song Ping’an’s life, but before he could finish speaking, Su Qingqing’s eyes shone with intense pink light, becoming extremely eerie.

By the time the great demon sensed something amiss, it was too late, feeling his whole body stiffen under Su Qingqing’s Demon Eyes, rendered immobile and bewildered!

Without a word from Su Qingqing, Little Phoenix immediately cooperated and maneuvered the Flame Light Wheel, severing the great demon’s entire arm holding Song Ping’an.

A gust of heat carried, Song Ping’an was rescued promptly.

Su Qingqing pointed at Song Ping’an’s forehead, circulating Master’s Power, awakening Song Ping’an and restoring his consciousness.

"Uncle Ping’an, are you alright, what in the world happened?!" Su Qingqing promptly asked.

"Qingqing, Little Phoenix..." Song Ping’an faltered momentarily, then quickly came to.

"Contact the young master immediately, they’re targeting him!"

"They?" Su Qingqing swiftly realized things were amiss.

The insect race great demon, capturing Song Ping’an, suddenly revealing itself before them, seemed exceptionally abnormal.

Worried about Song Ping’an’s safety earlier, there was no time to think deeply, but now it looked like deliberate baiting!
