If it were just those martial artists he didn’t know, Ye Qiu wouldn’t care about their lives, but Turquoise Pool was different; this woman once helped him.
Ye Qiu’s sudden appearance didn’t stop the abyssal demons from their actions; in their eyes, Ye Qiu’s arrival ant just another morsel of food.
About a dozen abyssal demons bared their claws, pouncing forward. Their claws were razor-sharp, capable of tearing through the void; should one be caught by them, sothing would surely be missing imdiately.
However, this ti the abyssal demons faced Ye Qiu, a young powerhouse who survived the Nine Tribulations and successfully reached the level of Supre Saint.
Puff puff puff puff...
Any abyssal demon close to Ye Qiu was turned into minceat under his casual punches, dying instantly from head to toe.
One, two, three...
Swish swish swish.
One abyssal demon after another charged forward relentlessly, yet none truly approached Ye Qiu. All were blasted apart half a ter away by his strikes.
Previously, juvenile king abyssal demons had summoned hundreds of secondary tier abyssal demons. Now, they were all slaughtered by Ye Qiu, leaving even the king abyssal demon dumbfounded, not realizing Ye Qiu was so powerful.
The king abyssal demon’s intelligence was not inferior to humans, especially at its level of evolution. Naturally, it realized Ye Qiu was incredibly dangerous, so it turned to flee.
"Don’t let it escape!" Turquoise Pool shouted.
Ye Qiu chuckled lightly, feeling sowhat speechless; at this mont, she was still thinking of killing that abyssal demon?
However, since Ye Qiu intervened, he naturally wouldn’t let it escape. This disgusting creature, exuding evil from every pore, was surely no good person, especially given how swiftly it devoured people earlier.
Ye Qiu wouldn’t let it escape. Although it was a king abyssal demon, Ye Qiu was stronger.
The void rippled, and Ye Qiu vanished from his spot, having dealt with the other abyssal demons. There was no need to worry about Turquoise Pool’s safety. He imdiately appeared before the juvenile king abyssal demon. Seeing Ye Qiu appear, the demon showed a trace of terror, instantly roaring at Ye Qiu.
Ye Qiu was unfazed, chuckled: "I don’t like being yelled at."
Saying this, he casually pointed, releasing a force that shot out, causing the demon’s mouth to sprout a bloody hole, oozing green blood.
Roar...
This strike caused the abyssal demon unbearable pain. Unlike the attacks from the young martial artists earlier, which couldn’t penetrate its body in one blow, Ye Qiu achieved it, his strength vastly surpassing that of ordinary saints, not even on the sa level.
In rage, the abyssal demon shuddered, all the bumps on its back opened, which Ye Qiu had seen during the battle — eyes capable of emitting green light.
Sure enough, as the eyes opened, beams of green light shot at Ye Qiu.
Ye Qiu’s expression remained clear: "Trying to trap in an illusion to buy ti to escape?"
Shaking his head, Ye Qiu was unaffected, stepping forward, standing before the abyssal demon, and slapping down on its head with one hand.
Poof!
Its head exploded instantly along with its body, turning into a pool of blood.
Among the blood was sothing sparkling, likely the energy source of the abyssal demon, akin to the core in the martial artist’s dantian.
Ye Qiu hovered it to his hand, weighed it, and didn’t care much. Although it contained considerable energy, he truly wasn’t interested.
Having killed the most powerful king abyssal demon, the crisis was fully resolved.
"Thank you, elder, for your aid; without you, I fear..." Turquoise Pool approached, cupping her fists to thank Ye Qiu. As she spoke, Ye Qiu slowly turned his head, smiling at her, "Turquoise Pool Saintess, long ti no see."
Turquoise Pool looked at Ye Qiu for a mont, stunned. How could such a powerful person be Ye Qiu?
Honestly, Turquoise Pool was sowhat bewildered; the king abyssal demon, without exaggeration, was close to the strength of a Supre Saint, which made it difficult for her to kill and landed her in danger.
But from Ye Qiu’s earlier action, the king abyssal demon was effortlessly killed, surely at the level of a Supre Saint.
Thus, Turquoise Pool didn’t regard Ye Qiu as a peer martial artist, identifying him as an elder.
Yet now, before her was Ye Qiu.
She rembered, at the Pantao Banquet, Ye Qiu’s strength hadn’t reached the Void Returning Realm. How long had it been, and he now possessed the power of a Supre Saint.
No wonder Turquoise Pool was shocked, as Ye Qiu’s progress was astonishingly fast.
"It’s you!" Turquoise Pool, being worldly, cald quickly.
Ye Qiu nodded: "Yes, unexpected to et again."
At this mont, the young martial artists approached. Though Turquoise Pool was in danger earlier, no one acted; now, none ntioned it as though it hadn’t happened, stepping forward to thank Ye Qiu.
Ye Qiu cared little for other people’s gratitude, frankly stating: "I only wanted to save Turquoise Pool."
This made so people’s smiles stiffen, forcing awkward chuckles.
Still, Ye Qiu’s strength was evident; even if displeased by his tone, no one dared comnt.
Offending a powerhouse was not wise.
The others didn’t disturb Ye Qiu and Turquoise Pool, noticing their acquaintance, which stirred so into jealousy, thinking Ye Qiu saving the beauty left a good impression on Turquoise Pool. If only they had Ye Qiu’s power, surely they’d earn her favor too.
All the young martial artists gathered, curious about Ye Qiu, a young yet powerful figure, whom none recognized.
Ye Qiu’s identity was a mystery, why so powerful yet unknown.
Then soone pointed out, thinking Ye Qiu resembled soone, sparking interest for more details.
"You think he’s the first to step onto Turquoise Pool’s celestial platform?" the crowd gasped.
"You know, I’m reminded, having so recollection, but isn’t it odd? What strength then, and now? Progress is alarmingly fast," remarked another.
Others agreed: "Indeed, if mory serves, it’s Ye Fentian, a loose cultivator."
"A loose cultivator, huh."
Upon hearing Ye Qiu’s identity, so expressed disdain, others jealousy — why should a loose cultivator reach such power.
At this, one sneered: "Perhaps you’re unaware; this person was here long ago."
"What?"
"My token can detect others’ presence, gifted by our family’s ancestor. When we were attacked by abyssal demons, it flashed, aning he was already present, but never acted imdiately. If not for Turquoise Pool’s sudden appearance, we might have been killed by the demons, and he wouldn’t have erged."
As this was said, the gratitude felt for Ye Qiu disappeared, replaced with hostility.
