Chapter 844: Thirteen Demon Guards!

Red orange yellow green cyan blue purple silver gray...

Various colored lights spread along the armor; when the armor fully lit up, an energy‑state phantom emerged from within it, like a ghost!

Each looked different, yet they all bore the same majesty.

They each held various divine weapons in their hands, appearing as unparalleled powerhouses!

"Those who trespass the Demon God Tomb shall die!"

A low, deep voice came from behind.

Only see, at the center of the round high platform, a more burly figure appeared, wearing black armor, seeming the strongest.

As the words fell, the eyes of the twelve Hell Hounds lit up, as if they had come alive, baring their fangs and exuding a terrifying aura!

"Alive!"

"Come down quickly!"

This scene was clearly seen by everyone; someone shouted loudly, but it was already too late!

The Hell Hound leapt up and in one bite crushed the skulls of those greedy people, blood spattering, brain matter flying.

In the blink of an eye, everyone who tried to claim the armor for themselves was dead!

Everyone was horrified; the power of these Hell Hounds seemed too strong!

At this moment, the Hell Hounds turned their targets toward everyone below!

The people scattered like birds and beasts.

"Miss, what are these?"

Leng Yue asked, trembling with fear.

"If I'm not mistaken, they should be the Thirteen Demon Guards of Demon God Taiyi!"

Records of Demon God Taiyi are scarce; she also happened to learn that Demon God Taiyi had a group of powerful subordinates, known as the Thirteen Demon Guards.

Back when Demon God Taiyi fell, the Thirteen Demon Guards vanished without a trace; it turned out they all perished in Demon God Taiyi's divine tomb.

These thirteen sets of armor must be what the Thirteen Demon Guards left behind.

The Thirteen Demon Guards remained standing in their spots, unmoving; the crystal on their chest armor flickered on and off.

The Hell Hounds' assault was fierce; many were wounded by their sharp claws and fangs.

A Hell Hound lunged at Ye Qingran, baring its fangs, its eyes glowing with an eerie green light, looking terrifying.

Feng Yi and Xuan Yuan Luo acted without a word, launching strong attacks; combined, even an ordinary Saint could not withstand them, yet striking the Hell Hound felt like they had no force at all.

"Woof~"

The Hell Hound barked furiously, looking even more frightening.

It was extremely fast, swinging its claws at Feng Yi, who barely managed to dodge.

In the fight between the two and the dog, the Hell Hound, immune to attacks, gained the upper hand; Xuan Yuan Luo and the other could not prevail, instead exhausting themselves greatly.

"Damn it, what the hell is this?!"

Xuan Yuan Luo gripped his Xuan Yuan Sword, brows furrowed tightly.

His and Feng Yi's attacks on the Hell Hound were like tickling it, which made him feel frustrated.

"Let's go together!"

Xia Zhimeng shouted and voluntarily joined the battlefield.

Qin Feixue and the others also hesitated not, joining the battle.

But no matter how many more joined, it seemed to have little effect on the Hell Hound, since all attacks were ineffective against it!

"Woman, aren't you going to help them? They simply can't beat the Hell Hound!"

Ye Qingran gave Fu Hanxiu a glance, saying, "If you can, go up."

Fu Hanxiu tightened his hand around Ye Qingran's neck.

"Of course I can." Fu Hanxiu wore a proud, smug expression.

"Oh? Tell me."

Fu Hanxiu pointed at the Thirteen Demon Guards and said, "Haven't you noticed their energy source is those Demon Armors?"

Ye Qingran nodded; she had noticed this, but for the moment couldn't think of a good solution.

"Moreover, these Hell Hounds cannot stray too far from the Demon Armor, or their energy supply will be cut off."

Hearing this, Ye Qingran's eyes lit up.

"Feng Yi, Xuan Yuan Luo, lure the Hell Hounds away from the Demon Armor!"

Hearing this, several people complied, fighting while retreating; the Hell Hounds pursued relentlessly.

As the distance grew, Ye Qingran clearly sensed the Hell Hounds' anxious light in their eyes dimming, and their movements became sluggish.

"What you said is absolutely correct!"

"Hmph, woman, now you know how formidable I am, right?"

Wooden horse~

Ye Qingran lowered her head and fiercely kissed Fu Hanxiu's forehead, saying, "You're truly a genius! I love you to death!"

Fu Hanxiu's face flushed red.

This woman really knows no restraint.

Fu Hanxiu thought, burying his face in Ye Qingran's chest.

However, Ye Qingran soon fell back into thought.

These Hell Hounds aren't stupid either; how can we get them to stay far from the Thirteen Demon Guards?

This side, the Hell Hound is simply too domineering; no one can stop it, and even a Profound Emperor‑level attack would at most blast it away, unable to inflict any real damage.

Moreover, the Hell Hound itself is agile and strong; many have become souls under its claws, truly living up to its name as a Hell Hound!

Even the Bai Tribe people are harried and exhausted.

"Ye Qingran, you're not that capable? Hurry up and think of a way to deal with these beasts!"

Bai Zichuan looked at Ye Qingran, his tone unpleasant.

"Are you begging me?"

Ye Qingran gave Bai Zichuan a sideways glance.

"Ye Qingran, what nonsense are you spouting? I'm begging you? What daydream are you having?!"

Ye Qingran shrugged, "Young Master Bai, the Bai Tribe's supposedly most talented genius in a thousand years, so capable, yet you can't think of a good plan to save everyone from fire and water?"

Bai Zichuan's face darkened after being retorted.

Ye Qingran couldn't be bothered with Bai Zichuan, but her mind raced, thinking of a plan.

At that moment, she suddenly heard a rustling sound, followed the noise, and discovered it was Xiao Huihui sneaking food!

"Xiao Huihui, what time is this, you still have the mind to eat?"

Xiao Hu said in a lecturing tone.

"Chee chee chee, I just exhausted myself a lot, I want to eat something to replenish my strength!"

Xiao Huihui was caught sneaking food, feeling very embarrassed.

"Eat?"

Hearing Xiao Huihui's words, Ye Qingran's eyes flashed, and a bold idea popped into her mind.

"Xiao Huihui, do you have a bone stick?"

"What?" Xiao Huihui glared, looking warily at the female demon.

"Surely the female demon is angry, going to confiscate its spirit beast!"

"Female demon, can't you, for Xiao Huihui's help just now, not confiscate its snacks?"

"Xiao Huihui's snacks were hard-won with great effort; normally it's reluctant to eat them."

"Who said I'm going to confiscate your snacks?" Ye Qingran found it funny; how could such a kind person do something so inhumane?

"I just want a bone stick."

"Really?" Xiao Huihui expressed disbelief.

"Has the female demon had a change of heart?"

"Although the bone stick is Xiao Huihui's chew toy, since you want it, I'll part with it."

"A bone stick ten times the size of Xiao Huihui, who knows where Xiao Huihui pulled it from."

"Everyone's mouths twitched. What a strange sparrow, liking to grind its teeth on a bone stick."

"Wrong, do sparrows even have teeth?"

Ye Qingran took Xiao Huihui's bone stick, very satisfied.

"Miss, what do you need the bone stick for?" Everyone looked puzzled.

"You'll find out soon." Ye Qingran gave a mysterious smile, then turned, holding the bone stick aloft, and shouted: "Big bone, delicious big bone!"

Then twelve hellhounds all shot curious glances; seeing the white big bone, the green light in each of their eyes grew brighter.

"Woof~"

Accompanied by a bark, all the hellhounds charged toward Ye Qingran.

Everyone: "......"

"Goddamn bone stick!"

"Isn't this a hellhound?"

"How could it like eating bone sticks?!"
