"Uncle, don't worry, because I'm part of your family."
Huh...!?
After Zheng-Fu said this, Duan-Hun's expression instantly turned dazed. He turned to look at Duan-Jian for confirmation, and Duan-Jian responded with a nod and a small smile, as if to say that the young man was indeed telling the truth.
Ah!!!
"But they're very strong. With your energy at the ninth level of the Divine Emperor stage, you can't beat them. Well, you should—"
Zing!!!
Slash!!! Slash!!!
Grrrrr!!!
Gkeeeee!!!
Before Duan-Hun could finish his sentence, Zheng-Fu's figure suddenly disappeared from view. Even he, a highly skilled master at the initial Divine King stage, nearing the interdiate level, couldn't keep up with Zheng-Fu's speed. At the sa ti, the loud howls of the demon monster beasts, the Dragon-Scaled Lion and the Skeleton Centipede, echoed in the air.
Flap!!!
"It wasn't that hard, Uncle, did you think so?" Zheng-Fu asked as he reappeared beside Duan-Hun, having already killed the two demon monster beasts in just four breaths.
"Ah!!! I guess I've been resting too little. Sigh!" Duan-Hun said, trying to find an excuse to calm his mind. He couldn't comprehend how Zheng-Fu had beco so powerful, far beyond his level, able to easily kill Divine King stage enemies—even though they were injured. For a Divine Emperor stage cultivator to do that was unheard of.
"Then you can rest. Leave the rest of the work to ," Zheng-Fu said with a smile, not offering much explanation. He simply urged Duan-Hun to stop using his secret skill and rest.
Wooooosh!!!
The Blue Kirin Monster Deity Shapeshifter slowly dissipated, and Duan-Hun's body slumped, exhausted from using too much energy in the clan's secret skill.
The Azure-Cloud Bird demon monster beast, seeing Duan-Hun withdraw his skill, brightened and let an evil smile cross its face. However, that smile quickly vanished when its gaze fell upon Zheng-Fu.
Having watched Zheng-Fu easily kill the Dragon-Scaled Lion and the Skeleton Centipede with just one slash, the Azure-Cloud Bird couldn't help but feel alard. Even Great Commander San-Un and Commander Dan-Ge had taken a much longer ti to kill the Savage Wolf demon.
"This one is dangerous. Even though he's at the ninth level of the Divine Emperor stage, the weapon in his hand is no ordinary weapon. It was able to easily kill those two fools who were already injured. That weapon must be of a very high level, especially with the aura it emits!" The Azure-Cloud Bird demon monster muttered to itself, deeply contemplating after analyzing what had just happened.
"Why think so much? It's just a regular weapon. Those two were weak cultivators, as are you," Zheng-Fu replied with a disdainful look, having overheard the demon beast's thoughts.
"Yo... you!!!"
The Azure-Cloud Bird's expression darkened instantly. It was furious, but being cautious by nature, it cald itself down, searching for a way to deal with Zheng-Fu and the others, including the two remaining demon monster beasts.
"Mhm... You're good at controlling your emotions. But no matter what you do, it's useless. You'll die just like the others," Zheng-Fu mocked, walking toward the bird with a casual, almost indifferent deanor, as if approaching a small, harmless animal.
"You're not a half-blood monster like them, are you? You're human!!?" The demon beast, as Zheng-Fu drew closer, sensed that he lacked the aura of the Monster Tribe. Realizing this, it was shocked to find that Zheng-Fu was a human helping the Monster Tribe, with no apparent intention of harming him.
"That's right! I'm human, and I'm also from another star. Scary, right? Ha ha ha! Absolutely terrifying!" Zheng-Fu laughed like a madman, his strange deanor causing many from the Monster Tribe to smile, lightening the previously tense atmosphere.
"You!!!"
The Azure-Cloud Bird was speechless, unable to believe Zheng-Fu's odd behavior. But before it could react, it realized that Zheng-Fu had already closed in on it. Without the beast noticing, the Aquatic Dragon sword in Zheng-Fu's hand swept through its hind legs.
Slash!!!
Hah...?
Ah!!!
Grrrr!!!
Red blood gushed from the wound, and its hind legs slipped from its body. Its howls of pain shook the ground, shattering buildings within a one-li radius. Even so advanced Divine Emperor stage martial masters were knocked back several steps.
"Oh! That must hurt a lot, right? But that's still not enough for what you've done," Zheng-Fu said with a cruel smirk before his expression turned serious and cold. With a flash of his sword, he slashed twice more.
Slash!!! Slash!!!
Thud!!! Thud!!!
With two more slashes, Zheng-Fu aid at the wings of the Azure-Cloud Bird demon monster, which were moving as it prepared to fly away. However, before it could take off, Zheng-Fu severed both wings. Now, the demon bird had neither legs to run away nor wings to fly.
Zheng-Fu's actions left everyone in shock, their mouths hanging open in disbelief. It was utterly absurd that he could cut off the legs and wings of an initial-stage Divine Emperor-level demon monster with such ease. Even Duan-Hun, who used a secret skill, couldn't achieve this, or if he could, it would take much ti and energy.
Yet, Zheng-Fu did it effortlessly, as if his opponent were nothing more than a block of tofu. How could this not leave everyone stunned? Even the two demon monsters fighting with Monster King Duan-Jian turned to look at Zheng-Fu with fear in their eyes.
"How could he do that?"
"He's just at the Divine Emperor stage, but he's that strong? Or is the secret in his sword?"
"Just a mont ago, I heard that demon monster beast say that he's from the Human Race. And he admitted that he's a human."
"Hey! There's going to be a huge uproar. He's a human? How did a human get here?"
Many of the great, skilled martial masters were filled with doubts, and nurous questions were being raised. However, they knew they wouldn't get answers anyti soon. Nevertheless, everyone wanted to know who exactly Zheng-Fu was and if he really was at the Divine Emperor stage.
Indeed, Zheng-Fu was able to cut off the Azure-Cloud Bird's legs and wings because he had acted while it was off-guard. Additionally, he used a secret technique to block the bird's energy flow by coating the Aquatic Dragon sword with his golden energy. Golden energy, being the strongest counter to dark energy, effectively disrupted the Azure-Cloud Bird's energy.
The bird was left shocked and confused by what had happened, with no ti to dispel Zheng-Fu's golden energy. By the ti it realized its energy was being blocked and attempted to clear it out, Zheng-Fu had already severed its wings. Even after dissipating the golden energy, escape was no longer an option. The more the bird thought about what had happened, the more furious it beca.
"Yo… you… you! You filthy, deceitful, low-class human! You bastard tricked !" the Azure-Cloud Bird demon monster beast cursed Zheng-Fu fiercely, knowing well that it was not weak enough to be defeated this easily. It understood that Zheng-Fu had outsmarted it with a clever tactic.
"Hey… hey! You can't say that. This kind of thing takes brains too. You're good at using your brain, aren't you? So, it only makes sense to use mine to co up with a clever plan to beat you! Ha ha ha! A legless bird without wings!" Zheng-Fu laughed heartily, completely unfazed by the bird's insults. What he really wanted was its knowledge and mory.
"But don't worry, I won't kill you now. Your brain is far too valuable to !" Zheng-Fu whispered in its ear so that only the Azure-Cloud Bird could hear. He then struck several points on its body, stopping the bleeding and destroying its energy.
Tap, tap, tap!!!
Grrrrrr!!!
After dealing with the Azure-Cloud Bird, Zheng-Fu turned his attention to the remaining two demon monster beasts. Licking his lips in a creepy manner, he dashed toward the Cruel Bat with his Aquatic Dragon sword in hand.
"Dear Bat, Daddy's coming!"
Hah...?
The Cruel Bat demon monster beast's expression instantly changed. Zheng-Fu's predatory gaze, as if it were about to feast on its favorite al, filled the bat with fear. Even the Sword-Haired Tiger standing next to it couldn't help but shiver when it saw Zheng-Fu.
Even Monster King Duan-Jian was startled by the strange aura that Zheng-Fu emitted. Though there was no overwhelming energy or pressure, the intensity of the mont made it impossible for anyone to look away or lower their guard.
"Hopefully, he doesn't do anything too strange," Monster King Duan-Jian muttered to himself, shaking his head.
