Chapter 82

Completely different from their usual squabbling, at this moment, the Divine Sword Peak disciples were truly like unsheathed sharp swords, displaying their edge to the fullest.

The Blood Tiger Demon King and the Golden Eagle Demon King, seeing the Divine Sword Peak disciples suddenly charge out of the formation, had faces as black as the bottom of a pot.

And at this moment, Hong Zun finally spoke.

“As long as there are disciples of the Dao One Sect, this old man will never be alone.”

As he spoke, his gaze swept over the disciples who were fighting fiercely with the demonic beasts, and his eyes softened.

“These little brats of mine, although they do things that make this old man angry on a daily basis and are quite mischievous...”

“But as long as they are here, this old man is not alone.”

“So...”

Hong Zun looked up again at the Blood Tiger Demon King and the Golden Eagle Demon King, his tone calm but incomparably firm.

“Whatever explanation you want, my Divine Sword Peak will give it to you today.”

Just as Hong Zun was the backbone of the Divine Sword Peak disciples, the disciples were also Hong Zun’s backbone.

The Divine Sword Peak, which seemed to have no seriousness on a daily basis, was absolutely the most trustworthy when something truly happened.

Hong Zun had never doubted this.

Hearing Hong Zun’s words, the two Demon Kings, Blood Tiger and Golden Eagle, had gloomy expressions. They were truly in a difficult position; who knew the Divine Sword Peak would be so tough, charging up with such vigor?

Just as they were hesitating, not knowing what to do, Xu Jie, in the midst of the fierce battle, actually turned and shouted at Hong Zun.

“Master, what are you standing there for? Take them down!”

The Blood Tiger Demon King and the Golden Eagle Demon King actually did not want to start a direct war with the Dao One Sect.

This was a critical moment for their plan. If a major war broke out with the Dao One Sect now, it would clearly be unwise and might even cause their plan to fail.

The harsh words they said earlier were, first, because they were angry at seeing Black Tiger beaten into such a sorry state.

Second, it was a matter of face; after all, they were people... no, demons of status.

But who would have thought the people of Divine Sword Peak would be so tough? They didn’t say anything and just started hacking away. Now it was difficult to stop; the main issue was how to even bring it up.

And just at this moment, in the middle of the melee, some little bastard who loved watching the chaos shouted:

“Master, what are you standing there for? Take him down!”

And hearing this, Hong Zun actually nodded with a smile.

“Good, Master will take him down right now.”

As he spoke, Hong Zun and Qing Shi paced through the air. With every step they took, their aura surged by a fraction.

Watching Hong Zun and Qing Shi approach, the Blood Tiger Demon King and the Golden Eagle Demon King were stunned.

Damn it, are you master and disciple performing a duet here? You just decided to come on your own?

“Hong Zun, think clearly. The Dao One Sect and my Tiger Ridge...”

Not wanting to truly strike, but unwilling to lower his head due to face, the Blood Tiger Demon King could only use the big picture as an excuse.

But was Hong Zun the type of person to care about the big picture?

If it were any other powerhouse of the Dao One Sect, they might have had such concerns, but who was Hong Zun? An old drunkard who, from his youth until now, had never been a person to care about the big picture.

Therefore, what the Blood Tiger Demon King said was completely useless to Hong Zun.

“Cut the crap! Let’s fight!”

Not listening at all, he slashed out with his sword and engaged the Blood Tiger Demon King in a fierce battle. At the same time, Qing Shi did not fall behind, striking out with a palm toward the Golden Eagle Demon King.

The great battle between the Demon Kings and the human Sages erupted once again.

However, the strength of the Blood Tiger Demon King and the Golden Eagle Demon King was clearly superior to that of the Black Tiger Demon King, both having reached the perfection of the Demon King realm.

In terms of realm, they were on par with Hong Zun and Qing Shi.

Seeing that Master had finally struck, Xu Jie chuckled.

“Since Master is still willing to pay attention to me, it proves that I can still be saved.”

This was a guy full of schemes. The sentence just now was to test if Hong Zun was truly angry with him.

If he were, Master definitely wouldn’t have paid attention to him. But Hong Zun did, and even smiled at him, so Xu Jie immediately felt relieved.

While thinking, he slashed a demonic beast to death, but suddenly his foot slipped, and he stumbled, nearly failing to stand.

“What tripped me?”

Looking down, he saw a humanoid creature lying there, covered in shoe prints, clearly having been stepped on by countless people.

He couldn’t recognize who it was, but the only thing he could be sure of was that it was a demonic beast, because it had fur.

Since it was a demonic beast, *bang*, he kicked it flying.

“Get lost, blocking the way and tripping people.”

Xu Jie couldn’t recognize the opponent, but Blood Tiger in the sky saw this scene and his eyes nearly split with rage.

That was the unconscious Black Tiger Demon King!

From the beginning of the battle, he had seen the Black Tiger Demon King being stepped on by the Divine Sword Peak disciples. After all, in the middle of a melee, who had the energy to pay attention to what they were stepping on?

He wanted to save him, but had no opportunity.

Seeing Xu Jie kick the Black Tiger Demon King away, only for him to be stepped on heavily in the face by another Divine Sword Peak disciple, the Blood Tiger Demon King’s eyes turned red.

That was his brother, his flesh and blood! To be so trampled by the people of Divine Sword Peak.

It was simply inhumane. Who exactly was the beast?

The entire area outside the offshore camp had become a battlefield. In terms of numbers, the Divine Sword Peak disciples were clearly at a disadvantage.

The number of demonic beasts was at least ten times that of the Divine Sword Peak disciples, and almost every disciple faced the risk of being surrounded.

However, having fewer people did not mean losing. On the contrary, the Divine Sword Peak disciples actually held the advantage; each one of them was truly fierce.

“Slow, slow, too slow.”

An outer disciple of Divine Sword Peak was fighting a leopard spirit at the Profound Demon level.

Facing the opponent’s attack, this outer disciple dodged them one by one with ease, like a rough man dancing gracefully on the battlefield.

Then, seizing the opportunity, he slashed down with his sword, killing the leopard spirit.

He didn’t know when it started, but movement techniques had become the advantage of the Divine Sword Peak disciples.

Combined with their movement techniques, which were all at the perfection level, they fought with ease.

Of course, there were special circumstances.

Also an outer disciple, facing the attack of three demonic beasts, although he had dodged perfectly, the last beast’s attack was truly unavoidable.

Just then, another outer disciple stepped forward without hesitation and blocked the attack for him.

Then, the two joined forces to kill the three demonic beasts.

“Are you okay, Senior Brother?”

Looking at the injured senior brother, the junior brother who had been saved asked with concern. Hearing this, the senior brother laughed without caring.

“Small injury. If Junior Brother feels bad, how about letting me have a meal spot as a reward?”

The junior brother, who had been full of gratitude, had his expression change instantly. He didn’t reply and turned to leave.

Later, this senior brother also fell into danger. At a critical moment, the junior brother suddenly appeared from nowhere and blocked the demonic beast’s attack for him as well.

Afterward, the junior brother said calmly.

“Now we’re even. We don’t owe each other anything.”

Want me to give up my spot? Dream on. I’ve been watching you the whole time. You block for me, I block for you, we don’t owe each other anything.

More and more demonic beasts died under the swords of the Divine Sword Peak disciples. As time passed, the gap in numbers between the two sides was rapidly shrinking.

Once they no longer had a disadvantage in numbers, the Divine Sword Peak disciples were like tigers entering a flock of sheep, completely slaughtering mad.

It was a scene of rivers of blood and corpses strewn across the field.

And although the Divine Sword Peak disciples were injured, not a single one lost their combat effectiveness.

This had to be credited to their daily meal-snatching.

The three daily, non-negotiable melees seemed like nonsense on the surface, but in reality, this was absolutely the best practical training.

And the constant injuries also allowed the Divine Sword Peak disciples to figure out a set of experiences on how to control injuries and where to be wounded to suffer the least.

For example, when facing an unavoidable attack, others might simply choose to take it head-on.

But the Divine Sword Peak disciples would consider: since this blade cannot be dodged, where would it cause the least damage? Comparing the two, the effect naturally stood out in battle.

The situation had begun to be slowly controlled by the Divine Sword Peak disciples. Just at this moment, Lu Youyou, Liu Shuang, and a group of Jade Maiden Peak disciples also charged out from the formation.

Hearing that the Divine Sword Peak disciples and the Flying Eagle Ravine demonic beasts were fighting outside the formation, Liu Shuang and Lu Youyou immediately drew their swords and killed their way out.

Just kidding, how could they be missing when Divine Sword Peak was fighting?
