Chapter 625: The Fall of the Pseudo-King (Second Update, requesting everything)

After the Brass Dragon died, Fang Qing swayed violently, his complexion turning noticeably paler, yet he did not spit out blood.

A Pseudo-King's Consciousness Sea is far broader and more resilient than that of an ordinary Monster Tamer, and their ability to withstand mental shocks is likewise incomparable to an ordinary Monster Tamer.

After the Brass Dragon was easily killed, Fang Qing already understood the gap between them, but he still did not give up hope for survival.

In the sky, the Archangel, bolstered by several of Fang Qing's Secret Techniques, neutralized Kailan's offensive at the cost of a minor injury, then the Angel Sword in its hand transformed into forty meters in length, and with a wave, it unleashed a sweep across the army.

Kailan subconsciously retreated a distance, moving out of the Angel Sword's attack range; this played right into Fang Qing's hands, and the Archangel seized the opportunity to slash at the light screen manifested by the Imitation Demon Refining Pot.

The light screen twisted violently, but ultimately managed to hold on, though it was clearly much thinner, and would likely break on the next strike.

Before the Archangel could swing its next sword, Kailan rushed up again.

The Archangel did not swing its sword to parry, instead manifesting a milky-white light shield to envelop its body.

Pop—

The milky-white light shield held for a moment, then was forcibly shattered by Kailan, the Green Giant Blade losing only a third of its momentum before slashing fiercely onto the Archangel.

Sizzle—

The silver armor worn by the Archangel blocked it slightly, then was forcibly breached by the Green Giant Blade, cutting a significant wound.

Under this blow, the Archangel was nearly dealt a heavy blow, but it still mustered its remaining strength to swing another Half-Moon Slash, which flew rapidly toward the light screen.

Fang Qing's eyes lit up, revealing hope.

At the critical moment, Li Zhangsheng flew in front of the Half-Moon Slash before anyone knew it.

Li Zhangsheng stood upon the Six-Rank Star Palace Lotus Platform, with the Taiyin Token above his head, starlight and Moonlight reflecting off each other in brilliance.

Clatter—

The Half-Moon Slash struck fiercely against the silver light screen manifested by the Taiyin Token; the silver light screen trembled violently, but ultimately withstood it.

Seeing this scene, Fang Qing was so angry he nearly spat blood.

As a Pseudo-King, Fang Qing's discernment was not poor, and he naturally sensed the power of the Imitation Demon Refining Pot, the Taiyin Token, and the Six-Rank Star Palace Lotus Platform.

Everyone was a Pseudo-King, but this guy's equipment was far too luxurious.

At this moment, Fang Qing felt like a pauper.

Baa— Roar—

Misfortunes never come singly; before Fang Qing could think of other methods, two more Demon Pets were finished off almost simultaneously.

Among them, the Crowned Flame Bird finished off one.

The other was a mighty and majestic Golden Lion, which ended up being gutted by Adai, who ripped out a heart that was still beating violently.

Pfft—

Even though a Pseudo-King's Consciousness Sea is far broader and more stable than an ordinary Monster Tamer's, this time Fang Qing could no longer endure it, opening his mouth to spray a mouthful of fresh blood.

At this life-and-death crisis, Fang Qing's eyes were almost bloodshot; he endured the violently shaking Consciousness Sea and directly applied the Bloodline Burning Secret Technique to the Earth Titan.

The Earth Titan's bloodline burned violently, its entire body emitting a strong blood-colored aura; its already massive frame swelled again, and it swung a fist the size of a small hut, smashing heavily onto the multicolored light screen.

Before Li Zhangsheng could stop it, the Earth Titan landed two consecutive punches on the light screen.

Pop—

The light screen flickered violently, could no longer hold, and vanished.

"Hoo!"

At this moment, Fang Qing had the feeling of seeing the light of day again.

The next moment, he didn't think so anymore; instead, he was filled with panic.

Because on his retreat path, Ning Bizhen was floating in the air; she sat upon the Water-Avoiding Golden-Eyed Beast, holding the Cold Jade Rabbit in her arms, with a Three-Legged Fire Crow above her head, giving the impression of a banished immortal from the Moon Palace.

With the path forward blocked and the retreat cut off, Fang Qing, like a castrated rooster, shouted powerlessly: "I surrender!"

"What, what did you say?"

Li Zhangsheng feigned not hearing clearly; without his command, his Demon Pets were still taking the opportunity to harvest Fang Qing's remaining few Demon Pets.

In an instant, another one of Fang Qing's Demon Pets died!

Pfft—

Fang Qing sprayed another mouthful of blood; he wanted to continue begging for mercy, but when he saw the situation the Archangel was facing, his eyes could not help but reveal fear and despair.

In the sky, the Archangel defended against a strike from Kailan in an exceptionally disheveled state, flying back a distance in the air, just happening to retreat in front of the Crowned Flame Bird.

The Archangel had naturally fallen for Kailan's scheme, and the Crowned Flame Bird naturally did not let this opportunity pass, its two sharp claws directly grabbing the Archangel.

Flame Storm!

Not giving the Archangel a chance to break free, fierce flames emerged around the Crowned Flame Bird, rapidly enveloping it and the Archangel.

In the blink of an eye, a Flame Storm with a diameter of several tens of meters formed, spinning rapidly in place, inflicting massive damage on the Archangel.

Within the flames, the Archangel's exceptionally painful screams rang out; its voice weakened rapidly, and finally, the sound came to an abrupt halt.

When the flames dissipated, the Archangel's body was like charred coal; it opened its eyes powerlessly, having completely lost its combat ability.

Crack—

The Crowned Flame Bird had no intention of letting it go; its claws pulled hard to both sides, tearing the charred Archangel into two pieces.

The Archangel's flesh and blood splattered, but it was caught in advance by Li Zhangsheng using Mental Power, not a bit was wasted.

"No, ah!"

After the Archangel was killed, Fang Qing curled up on the ground in pain, his head feeling as if it had been pierced by countless steel needles, an indescribable pain filling his body and mind.

His Consciousness Sea was indeed broad and stable, but the Archangel was his Life-Bound Demon Pet, having established a deep connection with his soul, which was very different from a blood-bonded Demon Pet.

Fang Qing bled from his seven orifices, his features twisted, resembling a fierce ghost, giving people a ferocious and terrifying feeling.

However, Fang Qing did not die, nor did he become a vegetable, but his eyes were blank, giving the impression of someone who had lost their soul.

Although he did not die, Fang Qing had become an idiot.

Crack—

Li Zhangsheng shook his head and crushed Fang Qing's throat with one foot, giving him a quick end.

The moment Fang Qing died, his remaining Demon Pets also suffered backlash one after another.

Boom—

The Earth Titan, still in the state of Bloodline Burning, clutched its head in pain and collapsed heavily to the ground; its massive body twitched a few times before it stopped moving entirely.

The backlash from Bloodline Burning and Fang Qing's death directly cost the Earth Titan its life.

Chirp— Roar— Woo—

Not far away, three more Demon Pets fell from the sky; before they could stand up again, Li Zhangsheng's Demon Pets pounced on them, and their fate was easy to imagine.

Roar—

At the same time, the Purple Heaven Leopard-Scaled Beast, which had been suppressed by Aixi, also suffered backlash and fell straight to the ground.

"Aixi, stop!"

Seeing that Aixi was about to finish off the Purple Heaven Leopard-Scaled Beast, Li Zhangsheng hurriedly stopped it.

Rather than killing the Purple Heaven Leopard-Scaled Beast, it would be better to take it back and keep it well-fed and cared for; that would count as sparing its life.

Of course, interest still had to be collected, such as occasionally giving the Purple Heaven Leopard-Scaled Beast's rear a shot.

Aixi stopped immediately, and then Kailan produced Hypnosis Powder that surged into the Purple Heaven Leopard-Scaled Beast's mouth and nose.

The Purple Heaven Leopard-Scaled Beast, which had been struggling, could not suppress its drowsiness and fell into a deep sleep.

As a Demon Beast, the Hypnosis Powder created by Kailan had been significantly enhanced by Mystery; barring any accidents, the Purple Heaven Leopard-Scaled Beast would likely sleep for a day and a night.

"Delivering a head from a thousand miles away, the gift is light but the affection is heavy; you really are a good person, it's a pity I don't even know your name."

Li Zhangsheng shook his head and sighed, while Ning Bizhen beside him couldn't help but roll her eyes.

After looting the corpse, the Crown Flaming Bird spat out a pillar of fire, quickly and safely incinerating Fang Qing's body.

Soon, the battlefield was cleaned up.

After ensuring all traces left behind were cleared, Li Zhangsheng restrained his aura again, recalled all his Demon Pets except for Adai, and then returned to the Li Family Manor with Ning Bizhen.

Adai carried the sleeping Purple Heaven Leopard-Scaled Beast, following closely behind Li Zhangsheng.

This time, Ning Bizhen did not come alone; she had brought several Instructors and even brought Dean Ning Wei along.

Of course, Dean Ning Wei had come voluntarily to help.

With their help, the fate of the remaining members of the Fang family was easy to imagine.

Except for a few Fang family members who escaped, the rest were either killed or captured, including one Fifth-tier Beastmaster.

Li Zhangsheng sat in the family conference room, quietly waiting for the gains and losses of this family incident.

Soon, the losses had been estimated; apart from a few Li Clan members who unfortunately died in battle, the other losses were negligible.

Among these people was Li Xinming's son, the former Internal Affairs Hall Clan Elder Li Wenhan, who was also Li Wenbo's own younger brother.

It was precisely because of Li Wenhan's early warning that the family avoided huge losses.

It could be said that Li Wenhan had made a great contribution to the family this time.

Having lost a close relative, Elder Li Xinming was filled with tears, and Clan Leader Li Wenbo was also in low spirits; although Li Wenhan was usually stingy and stubborn, he was willing to give his life for the family at a critical moment.

Li Zhangsheng also sighed softly and could only comfort them together with Li Haoqiong and He Yan, while discussing compensation for the deceased.

Among them, Li Wenhan had made a great contribution to the family, so his compensation and rewards were high, to be received by his direct relatives.

Besides this, the Li Clan members also pried open the mouths of several invading enemies; as for the reason, it was not very clear, but in their confessions, it was learned that the Fang family's Supreme Clan Elder Fang Qing had been in close contact with the Third Prince Dou Yuanbin recently.

Upon learning that the other party was the Fang family from the Dai Kingdom, Li Zhangsheng recalled the letter sent by the First Prince and felt that this action by the Fang family was very likely related to Dou Yuanbin.

"However, why didn't Dou Yuanbin come?"

Li Zhangsheng put himself in Dou Yuanbin's shoes and felt that Dou Yuanbin should not be so shallow; it was very likely there was a next step in the plan.

"Right, the Teleportation Array!"

Li Zhangsheng thought of the Teleportation Array again; it was highly likely that Dou Yuanbin did not know this news, and if Dou Yuanbin really had a next step, he seemed to have guessed his intention.

Without hesitation, Li Zhangsheng hurriedly bid farewell to the Li Clan members and stepped onto the Teleportation Array with Ning Bizhen, returning to the Yuanling Academy in the blink of an eye.

At the first moment, Li Zhangsheng flew into the air, activated the Heavenly Vision Secret Technique, and began to patrol the movements in all directions.

Today's Short Skit

Ancestor Leopard-Scaled Beast: Finally saw one of my own kind, so happy, give the author a chicken leg.

Adai: What to do, I used up all my cheats early on, so panicked.

Baitian: As long as there is a ball of yarn, it's fine.

Heiye: +1

Yuangungun: Continuing to sleep, you guys chat slowly.

Kailan: Yuangungun, Changsheng said, if you don't succeed in breaking through, your sleeping time will be halved from now on until you break through.

Yuangungun: I feel that this world is full of malice towards me {Blue thin mushroom}
