A bloody head was smashed against the city wall. The head rolled at the feet of the soldiers. The soldiers looked at it and saw that it was the head of the fortress commander. For a moment, many of them were terrified. They shouted at the top of their lungs, having never seen such a scene before.

A golden shield slowly lit up in the sky above the entire city. It was like a huge bowl that trapped Sea City and isolated the demons outside.

A burly bull-like demon in front of the demons stood up. He held a huge ax in his hand and spoke with a buzzing voice.

“Young lady, surrender early and be my dual cultivation partner. I can save your life. Looking at your delicate appearance, I don’t want to destroy a flower!”

These demons immediately erupted into very ear-piercing laughter.

The city wall facing the demons was filled with guards. Every section had a general leading them. They were spread out evenly. Ye Qiluo stood in the middle and looked coldly at the bull in the sky.

These generals were already very unwilling to guard here. When they saw the demon army outside and the powerful figures in front of them, they were even more terrified and wanted to retreat. Now, they were all thinking about how to escape.

“Where’s the State Preceptor? Where did she go? Why don’t I see the State Preceptor here?”

“Who knows? I haven’t seen the State Preceptor since just now.”

“Maybe she’s controlling the Great City Protection Formation. If not for the State Preceptor guarding this place, I’m afraid we might not be able to guard here.”

“That’s right, but it’s been too long. Don’t tell me the State Preceptor has already left?”

“What nonsense are you talking about? The City Lord is still here. How can the State Preceptor leave? Be careful with your words. If you’re heard, then…”

“What’s there to hide? Don’t you know where General Li and the others went just now? They must have run away long ago. In my opinion, we should have left with them. Now, I’m afraid we can’t escape even if we want to.”

“Alright, I think you should stop talking. At this time, you’re still so scheming. How can you defend it?”

These generals did not care that there was a large army pressing down on the border ahead. They were only thinking about when they could escape. The few people who had been indignant earlier and said that they wanted to go out and fight the enemy had already disappeared with their soldiers.

Although they were regretful, they probably wouldn’t have a chance to follow them. They could only find another opportunity later. As for Ye Qiluo, since she wanted to guard this lousy place, then let her guard here. She was a hopeless person.

Although Ye Qiluo’s expression was very cold, she did not seem to be in a hurry. Instead, she looked at the other party neither servile nor overbearing. The powerful demon seemed to be waiting for something.

Seeing that his clamoring was useless, the bull’s temper gradually became irritable.

“Little lady, did you hear me? If you don’t reply, I’ll knock your city down. At that time, it’ll be impossible for you to negotiate!”

Bull thought that his final warning was ruthless enough, but Ye Qiluo still did not react, as if she did not care about their threat at all. This made Bull very angry.

“You little woman! Since you refuse a toast only to drink a forfeit, don’t blame me for being rude!”

Bull roared at the sky. Then, he raised his two big fists and punched his chest twice.

These two fists seemed to have hit a heavy leather drum, emitting a muffled sound. It was like a heavy punch to the heart. After these two fists smashed down, Bull turned into a thousand feet tall huge bull. His eyes were red as he charged at Ye Qiluo without hesitation.

The two thick bull horns hit the golden shield, causing a ripple.

After seeing that this fellow’s attacks had failed, the soldiers below were greatly encouraged. They had been pessimistic and thought that they had no hope at all. However, they did not expect such a powerful defense to exist at this moment. Then, there was no need for them to be afraid.

“State Preceptor!”

“It’s the State Preceptor. The State Preceptor has always been here!”

“As long as the State Preceptor is around, our defense will definitely not be broken. Everyone, don’t be afraid!”

Their voices gradually became louder. They seemed to be more confident that they could defend. This powerful defense gave them such confidence.

Behind the demons, Spirit Child was silently paying attention to the commotion ahead. When he saw this scene, he could not help but frown.

“General, this human’s array formation is too mysterious. I’m afraid we won’t be able to break through it in a short period of time. What should we do?”

A brown-haired wild boar soldier panted heavily and lowered his head to ask Spirit Child.

Spirit Child pondered in confusion. If the two people who came over just now were Red Wave and Gray Mountain, then they should have already broken through the defense of Sea City. At the very least, they should have infiltrated it. Why hadn’t they made a move yet? What were they waiting for?

Spirit Child did not expect that he would make a miscalculation. He originally thought that those two fellows had already taken down Sea City. However, he did not expect that this huge city would still be standing there without any intention of being broken through.

“Attack with all your might!”

“Yes, General!”

The few experts of the demon race stood in a row in front of the city wall of Sea City. They each held weapons in their hands and attacked the golden shield fiercely.

A figure on the side quietly circled around and arrived at the back of Sea City in a short period of time. He wanted to sneak in from this weak defense. A crack quietly appeared on the golden shield below with a sharp weapon. Then, he crawled through the crack as quickly as possible.

Spirit Child looked up at the tall city wall. He did not expect to be able to sneak in in such a simple way. He had thought that these humans would resist with such determination, but from the looks of it, it was just a little pressure.

However, just as Spirit Child was feeling happy, someone suddenly appeared beside him.

Li Yuanqing looked at him quietly, as if he had been waiting for him there for a long time.

“You still have some ability. You can even tear open Little Man’s shield.”

Li Yuanqing’s appearance shocked the Spirit Child. He hurriedly became vigilant, and his muscles seemed to have tensed up. He looked at Li Yuanqing in confusion.

“Who are you?”

Li Yuanqing looked at him meaningfully and said, “You sneaked into Sea City and asked me who I am?”

“It seems like you’re the legendary guardian of the human race.”

Spirit Child sized Li Yuanqing up.

“As far as I know, you’re only a third-grade Formation Arrangement Realm cultivator. From the looks of it, our information seems to have made a very serious mistake. You already have such a profound cultivation, but they actually didn’t find out.”

Li Yuanqing did not continue. Instead, he said, “Since you’re here, don’t leave.”

“Is this a joke?” Spirit Child flipped his hand and took out a slender sword. “If you want to keep me here, it depends on whether you have the ability!”

Li Yuanqing did not say anything else and directly took out a black square platform.

The black square platform emitted a dense devilish aura. The moment the Spirit Child saw the black square platform appear, his expression changed drastically. He had never seen such a powerful Dharma artifact in the Demon Realm. The thing in front of him had already exceeded his understanding.

“Dharma treasure?”

He stared at the black platform in disbelief. At this moment, he had no intention of fighting Li Yuanqing at all. He was not a fool.

Those idiots actually had the guts to rush up and compete with the other party after seeing such a powerful Dharma treasure. For example, he only had one thought in his mind.

Without hesitation, Spirit Child slashed the sword behind him. His entire body turned into a sharp spear that stabbed at the golden shield.

The golden shield flickered as if it was under great pressure. It looked like it was about to shatter at any moment. However, after such a short obstruction, Li Yuanqing’s platform immediately landed on the head of Spirit Child.

Spirit Child knew that he could not let this fellow control his body. The moment the threads on the square platform were about to land on him, he turned around and dodged to the side, rolling hundreds of feet away.

“Fellow Daoist, I have nothing to do with you. We have no feud and it’s all a misunderstanding between us. As long as you let me go, no demon will come and harass you in the future!”

Spirit Child’s words were quite beautiful at this time, but Li Yuanqing would not believe his nonsense.

Li Yuanqing controlled the square platform coldly and kept moving forward.

“I told you not to go back since you’re here.”

“Don’t go too far!”

Spirit Child revealed a ferocious expression. His eyes suddenly turned vertical. His body also gradually lengthened. He was actually vaguely like a long snake as he swam on the ground. His speed was actually extremely fast.

“I’m warning you, if you let me go today, I won’t be entangled with you. But if you really want to fight me to death, I definitely won’t let you off so easily!”

In this space, it seemed like he could no longer capture the figure of the Spirit Child. He could only hear his sinister and vicious voice piercing his ears.

Li Yuanqing stretched out an arm and grabbed at the space on the right. A small round shield appeared in his hand with a golden flash.

There was a clang.

Spirit Child’s body was sent flying heavily. His chest felt stuffy, but he disappeared into space without hesitation.

The guy in front of him was really incomparably powerful. Not only did he have such a powerful Dharma artifact, but his defense was also very shocking. He had already transformed into three afterimages just now to confuse Li Yuanqing, but Li Yuanqing could still accurately capture his location.

Spirit Child knew that he no longer had any chance of winning. He did not know that Li Yuanqing was not fighting alone. There was still the Man-eating Vine behind him who controlled the entire city’s array formation and kept capturing his location.

No matter where Spirit Child landed, he would appear in Li Yuanqing’s eyes. He had nowhere to hide.

Spirit Child kept swimming around the edge of the shield. He wanted to find an opportunity to break through and escape when the shield was weak. It was impossible for him to win against Li Yuanqing. If he wanted to escape now, his only chance of survival was to attack this shield.

However, to his despair, the golden shield seemed to have a life of its own. As long as he escaped to any position, it would immediately replenish its strength. It was as if it had predicted his footsteps. How was this possible?

After trying it out, Spirit Child decided to go all out. He poured all his strength into it, wanting to forcefully break open a place where the flames were condensed.

However, just as his attack was about to land, wisps of black smoke landed mercilessly and blocked in front of him. They formed a cage around him and enveloped him.

Spirit Child looked at him in horror. He was firmly tied up and had nowhere to hide. He transformed into his huge true form in the cage. It was a huge white snake. The snake kept trying to expand the cage with its powerful body, but when its body touched the black threads, it only caused black smoke to rise.

After a futile attempt, the snake transformed into a human. He could no longer maintain his huge body. His body was firmly restricted by the cage and could not change at all.

The injured Spirit Child sat in the middle of the cage, panting as he looked at Li Yuanqing viciously.

“I didn’t expect this! I didn’t expect there to be someone with extraordinary strength like you among the humans!”

He hated it. He hated the fact that his information on this guy did not include this. If he had known that there was such a powerful human, he would definitely not have sneaked in here alone.

Now, it seemed like the other party had deliberately revealed a flaw to lead him in. No matter what, he had already fallen into this trap. All of this was destroyed.

Li Yuanqing stretched out his hand and the cage shrank. He carried Spirit Child and entered the platform.

“Go in and reunite with your two brothers.”
