Ancient Fiend Dragon Emperor

Chapter 307: Chapter 306 Taking Advantage of the Fire

“Who?!”

After the scream, Lii Sheng quickly retreated, while forcefully extracting his right hand, which had already been crushed, from the palm that had suddenly appeared.

Now, looking at his right hand again, it had completely turned into mush, and blood kept dripping down.

“Hmph!”

A cold snort came from the void.

Just as Lii Sheng was about to look, his heart suddenly shook, and an extremely intense sense of crisis arose within him.

...

In that instant, his body hair seemed about to explode.

“Back off!”

Guan Quan’s figure flashed, his cultivation base erupted, and he actually emitted the aura of someone in the late stages of the Dragon God Realm.

Someone at the late stages of the Dragon God Realm was more than capable of being the sect master of a Seventh-Rate sect. Clearly, Guan Quan had made his breakthrough during this period.

He moved extremely quickly, almost instantly appearing behind Lii Sheng, and swung a palm strike.

“Boom!”

This palm strike, though seemingly aimed at the void, produced a muffled sound upon impact, followed by the slow emergence of an elderly figure.

“Purple Demon King?”

Relieved to be rescued by Guan Quan, Lii Sheng breathed a sigh of relief. However, his expression darkened upon seeing the old man.

This elderly figure was none other than Shen Li, the Purple Demon King of the God-Slaying Pavilion!

“You’re quite lucky; Deputy Pavilion Master Su Yunming and many captains of the Divine Guard Regiment have already perished at the hands of the Super Sect, yet you managed to escape this tribulation?” Guan Quan said.

“So the Flowing Snow Sect can only engage in despicable acts like taking advantage of others’ misfortune, huh?”

Shen Li’s expression was icy as his figure flickered, ready to attack Lii Sheng once more.

But Guan Quan was not to be trifled with. He swung his palms repeatedly, unleashing countless Palm Radiance that swept towards Shen Li’s head.

At the same time, Peng Lei, the First Elder of the Flowing Snow Sect, also appeared, wielding two Silver Moon Scimitars in his hands, each blade emanating an extremely sharp light, aiming to pierce through Shen Li’s body.

Flowing Snow Sect’s third Dragon God Realm expert also joined in the attack, the sect’s Deputy Sect Master, Hai Yan.

Hai Yan’s eyes radiated a terrifying intent to kill. He stepped on the Kunming Beast as if exerting great force, causing the beast’s massive body to bend violently as if in excruciating pain, it even let out a roar.

Meanwhile, Hai Yan’s body was catapulted forward like a streak of light, attacking Shen Li from the void.

“Isn’t this a bit shameless?”

“All three Dragon God Realm experts of the Flowing Snow Sect are taking action against the Purple Demon King?”

“The Purple Demon King is indeed powerful. Fighting one against three, he doesn’t seem to be at a disadvantage.”

“It is said that he only joined the God-Slaying Pavilion a little over a year ago. When he joined, he was just an ordinary person. It’s hard to believe that in just one year, he’s become so powerful that he can fight alone against three Dragon God Realms.”

“So what if they are strong? The people from the Awe-Inspiring Sect and the Seven Swords Palace are eyeing them like tigers waiting to pounce. The Purple Demon King may seem evenly matched now, but if this drags out, he’ll exhaust himself and surely be killed,”

The onlookers felt nothing but contempt for the Flowing Snow Sect. It was one thing to kick someone when they were down, but now they watched as the Sect Master, Deputy Sect Master, and the First Elder—the three mightiest of the Flowing Snow Sect—attacked Shen Li together. If word were to get out, would they have any semblance of the dignity of the strong left?

“Haha, Sect Master Guan, it seems you have taken care of the God-Slaying Pavilion already? It appears there’s no need for the members of my Awe-Inspiring Sect and the Seven Swords Palace to make a move?”,

Sect Leader Tu Qingtian of the Awe-Inspiring Sect laughed heartily, looking quite at ease as he watched the scene with folded arms, as if enjoying the show.

“This so-called Purple Demon King may still pose some threat for now, but the rest are just ants,” Palace Master Chen Li of the Seven Swords Palace also chuckled.

“We cannot delay any longer, Sect Leader Tu, Palace Master Chen, I implore you both to act quickly and take care of the people from the God-Slaying Pavilion. Otherwise, if that Su Baliu emerges from the Gate of Deer Chasing, we will have serious trouble,” Guan Quan said gravely.

“Su Baliu?”

“The entire God-Slaying Pavilion has already been annihilated, so what use would it be if he does come out? Do you really think he alone can take on us, the Three Great Sects? Do you think we’re all vegetarians?” Tu Qingtian said.

“It seems you’re quite afraid of this Su Baliu, aren’t you, Sect Master Guan?”

Chen Li also sneered covertly, “I would actually like to see this Su Baliu myself. All the county cities have been abuzz with how formidable and fierce Su Baliu is, touting him as some kind of deity. Could his real strength possibly be in the Dragon Emperor Realm? The Dragon Vein Realm, slaying those in the Dragon God Realm? One against thousands? Does he think he’s immortal?”,

Hearing what the two men said, Guan Quan’s expression grew dark, and he spoke, “Gentlemen, while the God-Slaying Pavilion is on the verge of destruction, I must admit that Su Baliu is indeed formidable. There’s definitely a reason why he is called Su Baliu. It’s safe to say that it’s Su Baliu alone who has held up the God-Slaying Pavilion. Without him, there would be no such sect!”,

“Is Su Baliu really that powerful?”

“Compared to him, who is stronger, who is weaker?” Tu Qingtian still had his arms crossed, scoffing as he pointed at Shen Li.

Guan Quan fell silent.

At this moment, Shen Li’s whole being radiated the aura of the Dragon God Realm Mid-Stage. Though his cultivation realm was a level lower than Guan Quan’s, the techniques Shen Li utilized were potent, so that even Guan Quan, a powerhouse in the Dragon God Realm Later Stage and joined by Hai Yan and Peng Lei, two other Dragon God Realm cultivators, were hard-pressed to kill him for the time being.

Guan Quan had never truly witnessed Su Han’s strength, nor had he ever seen Su Han in person. Naturally, he wouldn’t know whether Su Han or Shen Li was the stronger.

“If you’re not speaking, then they must be about the same. At least, Su Baliu couldn’t be much stronger than him,”

Tu Qingtian sneered, “That’s what I wanted to hear. Even if that Su Baliu really does return, we will all attack together; even if he is immortal, he won’t pose any threat to us!”,

“We should not linger here. The God-Slaying Pavilion still has allies from the Cold Cloud Sect and the Palace of the Divine Maiden, both Eighth-Rank Sects. In terms of strength, they aren’t inferior to us. Once they learn of our arrival and hastily come to their aid, especially if Su Baliu returns, wiping out the God-Slaying Pavilion will become much more difficult,” Guan Quan said anxiously.

“The Palace of the Divine Maiden? The Cold Cloud Sect? Hahaha…”

Chen Li burst into laughter, “First off, the Palace of the Divine Maiden is far in Huang’an County City, a great distance from here. Even if those women got the news, it would take them a long time to get here.”

“As for the Cold Cloud Sect… While it’s true that they are allies of the God-Slaying Pavilion, all of this hinges on the Pavilion’s strength. Now that the Pavilion has provoked so many Super Sects, the Cold Cloud Sect would hardly have time to avoid us, let alone show up.”

Indeed, if Chen Li were the Cold Cloud Sect Master, he certainly wouldn’t intervene.

However, he didn’t understand Ling Qinghai.

“Boom!”

Just as his words fell, a massive roar suddenly emerged from the void in the distance.

Chen Li and the others turned to look, only to see hundreds of demon beasts charging rapidly towards them. They were so fast that a huge dust cloud rose behind them.
