Chapter 216: Chapter 193: The Towering Demon Shadow Amidst the Veil of Rain (Seeking Monthly Tickets) Damn it! Right under his own eyes, the demon brazenly committed atrocities, a sheer disgrace. And here, in this tiny spot of land, he, the Colonel, was hamstrung, feeling all the more stifled by it. Seeing a few influential families that had been clamoring just a moment ago now only caring about saving their own skins in the face of danger infuriated him even more. “Running for what!” “Disperse this damned mist!” With an angry shout, he bent down to open his mouth wide, his eyes glaring furiously as a streak of red fire shot out, swelling rapidly in the wind and sweeping forth as a fiery blaze, surging towards the pink mist. At this moment, Xiao Mansion was in a state of chaos, as the terrifying demeanour of the six spirit monsters struck fear into the hearts of some of the normally boisterous young members of powerful families, causing them to flee in terror, scattering in disarray. Only a few people were running against the fleeing crowd, shouting as they went. One was the Xiao Family Master Xiao Yuanshan, whose face was a mix of shock and anger. He truly could not have imagined that so many powerful demons were hiding in his own home, and seeing them slaughtering inside his mansion made him feel as if he were about to breathe fire from his eyes. With a loud shout, he shook his hands furiously. Two blue streams of water twisted up his arms and then he pushed forward violently. With a majestic dragon roar, the streams of water were flung out, swelling in the wind to transform into two thirty to forty-foot long water dragons that pounced towards the mist. Then, opening their giant maws widely, they sucked in the pink mist like dragons drinking water! Another was Ji Wuming from Shu Mountain Sword Sect, with a cold gleam in his eyes as bright as stars, a three-foot green blade floating horizontally in front of him, vibrating with sword sounds. With his hand pointing sword fingers, the air whistled sharply, and the sword light transformed into serpents, twisting into the midst of the mist to vanquish it. Additionally, two other Heavenly Pass Experts from Guang’an Prefecture eagerly took action. They had been taken unaware earlier and had come into contact with the Devil God Incense of the demon, causing great damage to their True Qi. Seeing the pink mist surging towards them as if facing snakes and scorpions, their faces turned dark with rage as they cast Divine Skills. At the same time, outside Xiao Mansion, in the torrential rain, a sharp whistle blew, followed by a loud shout. “Wind!” “Wind!” “Wind!” Next, the clashing sounds of iron armor could be heard. In the sky, the floating Mountain-cutting Banners flared with golden light in a swift flash. The banners rolled out, and immediately afterward, all of them stretched straight down. Four violent winds, transformed into swirling columns, blasted from the northeast, southwest, and northwest four directions towards where the pink mist was thickest. A Heavenly Pass Taoist Soldier, three Tao Seeds, along with the Ninth Mountain Army Mountain-cutting Formation attacked in unison. In an instant, the originally spreading pink Devil God Incense stopped its expansion and then began to contract towards the center. Gradually, six giant, fierce demons became visible within. Six pairs of crimson and green eyes shimmered with a cruel and bloodthirsty cold gleam. Their mouths chewed on flesh and blood, making cringing and crunching sounds. Then, looking towards the several figures who had taken action at the Heavenly Pass, they snickered fiercely, lifting their gigantic claws, inside which could be seen the figures of terrified, screaming people. “Master, save me.” “Father, save me, it hurts so much.” “.....” Meanwhile, on a nearby pavilion, the demon Feiyi with blood-red fleshy wings and a fierce and enormous size perched on its claws. Then, with its long neck, it stretched down to a window, a single fierce and large white eyeball peering through the small window into the empty room. At this moment, behind a folding screen in the room, two pairs of eyes peeked out through the crack, terrified, looking at the massive white eyeball at the window. The fierce and eerie sight was enough to send shivers down one’s spine. Immediately, one of them, frightened out of wits, was about to scream, but a soft hand hurriedly covered her mouth. It turned out to be Xiao Qingzhi and her maid. The maid, Little Jiu, was trembling all over, collapsing into her mistress’s arms. Her usually lively and quirky eyes were now filled with terror, staring wide-eyed. As for Xiao Qingzhi, even as she forced herself to stay calm, her pale face revealed everything. She bit her lip to keep from making any noise. But at that moment, a glint of mockery flashed through the giant white eyeball outside the window, and the next second, “Boom” The ceiling shattered, and a huge and fierce claw accompanied by flying wood chips reached into the pavilion, followed by a swift extraction. A frantic shout followed closely after. “Miss!” Not far away, Xiao Family Master Xiao Yuanshan, who was controlling the two water dragons, saw this scene, his eyes revealing a panic, and he shouted anxiously, “Zhi’er!” At that moment, it was visible that the demon Feiyi, who had lost one claw, was holding Xiao Qingzhi, the youngest daughter of the Xiao Family, dressed in green silk, in its hand. “Ha ha!” “So this is today’s birthday banquet’s star.” “Such tender skin and flesh, it must taste delicious.” The demon Sima Pu let out a sinister and piercing laugh, followed by its long neck stretching out swiftly, facing Xiao Yuanshan, with its white pupils flashing with savagery. “You despicable, disgusting humans really deserve to die; I, the Divine General of the Heavenly Pass, suffered in your home for a few days, and yet I’ve been discovered after all.” Speaking, those white pupils turned and looked at the Eldest Son of the Xiao Family, Xiao Qingxiong, who was hiding behind Xiao Yuanshan, flickering with a bone-chilling malice. This scared the Eldest Son of the Xiao Family out of his wits, and he stepped back continuously. “Release my Zhi’er!” Xiao Yuanshan spoke with a fierce exterior but frailty inside; his eyes conveyed his anxiety. Yet, that Feiyi twisted its neck around and let out a menacing laugh, “If you want me to release your daughter, withdraw those damned Ninth Mountain Troops, open the grand formation, and I’ll release her immediately once it opens.” “Otherwise...” Its neck shrunk back, and then it tightened its claw. The small green figure’s mouth was suddenly stained with the color of blood, like a bright flower petal smeared with blood pearls, yet she did not make a sound. This reaction left Feiyi feeling that it hadn’t quite achieved the effect it desired, “Heh, such a frail body, but still quite tough.” Saying so, it was about to exert more force. “I agree with you.” Xiao Yuanshan shouted deeply and withdrew the water Jiao. At the same time, the other two Heavenly Pass Experts from Guang’an Prefecture faced the same threat, their family members being held by six demons. The three had ugly expressions, exchanged a look, and quickly moved to stop the local Colonels and Ji Wuming from the Shu Mountain Sword Sect who were still taking action. “How dare you obstruct me!” “Listening to those demons’ nonsense, have you gone mad!!” Gou Zhi’s face darkened, and he cursed at the three men. “Please General, hold back. My youngest daughter is in the hands of a demon. Do you expect me to just watch her die?” As Xiao Yuanshan acted, he called out unwillingly. “Bullshit, do you think the demon will really release her? Do you know how many lives these dogs will slaughter once they’re released? Is only the Xiao Family’s life valuable? Xiao Yuanshan, don’t forget your father was once a Colonel.” Gou Zhi shouted angrily, his eyes and brows wide open. “I can’t do it, I can only offend!” Meanwhile, the other two Heavenly Pass Experts from Guang’an Prefecture, one stopped Ji Wuming, while another jumped in front of the Xiao Mansion gate, looking at Liu Qing defending the formation, “People of Ninth Mountain, open your grand formation now!” “Idiots!” Liu Qing’s eyes were cold, he uttered just two words. Then, the Family Head’s face turned red, and he shouted, casting Divine Skills towards the gate. “Ha ha” The Feiyi, seeing how it had set everyone at odds with its manipulation, couldn’t help but feel smug. And time had already passed for quite a while, the Ninth Colonel and those Sect Heavenly Pass Experts mentioned in the intelligence hadn’t made a sound. “The Ninth Colonel and some Sect Heavenly Pass Experts seem not to be in Guang’an.” “Quickly break this formation; when the time comes... a massive slaughter!” It transmitted the message to its companions, excited by this speculation with a fierce voice. With that said, the six demons all let out fierce howls together, the Demon Cloud tumbled, and they unleashed surging Demon Light towards one area. Suddenly there was a loud blast! Inside Xiao Mansion, it was total chaos. Outside Xiao Mansion, there were horses neighing and people shouting. And at that moment, on the western city wall. In the rain-shrouded world, amidst the vast expanse, terrifying roars came piercing through the air! One after another, fierce demon shadows, treading on the void, broke through the rain curtain with an overwhelming momentum, cascading down. “Demons!” The Government Army on the city wall exclaimed in alarm. Then, a piercing whistle sounded atop the wall. Following that, “Ding” “Ding” “Ding” The sound of a bell rang out, reverberating in all directions. Immediately, the tranquil Guang’an Prefecture under the rain curtain was startled by these urgent bell tolls. Sky Striking Bell! It must not be used unless it was a dire emergency.
