Chapter 941: The Demon Commander Courting Death (Second update, requesting everything)

This was a Great Demon-level Six-Armed Snake Demon, standing over three meters tall, with sharp blades two to three meters long gripped in its six arms.

Upon discovering Li Zhangsheng blocking its path, the Six-Armed Snake Demon swung its blades without a second thought; six sharp blades slashed toward Li Zhangsheng from every angle, completely sealing off any room for evasion.

Yet at this very moment, the Hunyuan Golden Lamp automatically appeared above Li Zhangsheng's head, and he was instantly enveloped within the Five-Colored Tassel; the Six-Armed Snake Demon's blades struck it, only causing ripples to stir, firm and unbreakable.

The Six-Armed Snake Demon was clearly taken aback; even if this casual strike had not utilized its full strength, this defense was simply too strong—even if it attacked with all its might, it feared it would be unable to break through in a short time.

If it were a mid- or low-grade treasure, it might have been broken by the Six-Armed Snake Demon after just one or two strikes, but the defense of a Zifu Qizhen-level Strange Treasure far exceeded that of mid- or low-grade World Wonders; even a Saint Grade Spirit Pet might not necessarily be able to break through it in one go.

Not giving the Six-Armed Snake Demon a chance, Li Zhangsheng pointed at the Hunyuan Golden Lamp above his head.

The Hunyuan Golden Lamp began to spin rapidly, and the Five-Colored Lamp Flame above it suddenly surged, instantly engulfing the Six-Armed Snake Demon.

The Six-Armed Snake Demon had no time to react before it was shrouded by the Five-Colored Lamp Flame.

The Five-Colored Lamp Flame of the Hunyuan Golden Lamp was composed of a mixture of five-element energies, sharing a similar ingenuity with the Five-Colored Divine Light of the Five-Colored Peacock, only the Five-Colored Lamp Flame was primarily focused on destruction.

At this moment, the Six-Armed Snake Demon could be said to be feeling it firsthand; its body simultaneously felt the cutting of Metal, the growth of Wood, the persistence of Water, the scorching of Fire Element, and the heaviness of Earth, causing it such agony that it could not help but let out a shrill scream.

Black Demonic Qi emerged on the surface of the Six-Armed Snake Demon's body, attempting to disperse the Five-Colored Lamp Flame, but it was easily obliterated by the Five-Colored Lamp Flame, which continued to calcine the Six-Armed Snake Demon's body.

Boom—

The Six-Armed Snake Demon could no longer endure it, falling straight to the ground from a hundred meters in the air; while creating a large crater, the Six-Armed Snake Demon, now turned into a human of fire, ignored the pain and rolled on the ground in agony, vainly hoping to extinguish the Five-Colored Lamp Flame.

Unfortunately, these were all futile efforts; the Five-Colored Lamp Flame was composed of the five elements, so naturally, it could not be extinguished so easily.

The Six-Armed Snake Demon's struggles grew increasingly feeble, until finally, it stopped moving altogether, burned to death by the Five-Colored Lamp Flame; the entire process took no more than half a minute.

Li Zhangsheng snapped his fingers, and the still-burning Five-Colored Lamp Flame returned to the Hunyuan Golden Lamp, leaving behind a corpse of the Six-Armed Snake Demon that looked like charred charcoal.

Although the surface appeared charred, the Six-Armed Snake Demon's heart was undamaged, becoming Li Zhangsheng's trophy.

If it had been near the Abyss Gate, the Six-Armed Snake Demon might have been able to resist a little, but there was no Abyss Will here, causing the Six-Armed Snake Demon to be severely suppressed by the Heavenly Dao Will, and it was feared it could only exert half of its combat power.

On the other side, Aixi had also finished off another Great Demon and came running over with its corpse in its mouth.

As for the dragons, they were like they had been injected with stimulants; after easily crushing the demon army, they began to pursue the fleeing demons.

As for the garrison of this small city, they had also assembled, but because the dragons were too crazy, they did not dare to leave the city at all.

At this time, the only Fifth-tier Beastmaster among the garrison flew toward Li Zhangsheng.

His complexion was as pale as paper, with blood at the corners of his mouth, and he was in a state of intense Consciousness Sea agitation.

He was Luo Tong, the City Lord of this small city; even knowing the situation was lost, he still did not choose to flee alone, which could be considered quite responsible.

Upon seeing Li Zhangsheng for the first time, Luo Tong could not help but be stunned, because Li Zhangsheng was ridiculously young.

Once he sensed the aura faintly released by Li Zhangsheng, Luo Tong could confirm that this was an aura unique to a King, because he had once felt it from the only King in the Hu Kingdom, and he was immediately filled with respect.

"This humble one, Luo Tong, on behalf of all the people in the city, thanks Your Majesty for your life-saving grace. May I ask for Your Majesty's title?"

While speaking, Luo Tong bowed deeply; if not for Li Zhangsheng, he and all the people in the city would likely have ended up in the bellies of these demons.

Not only that, their souls would not have been spared by the demons either; they would either be devoured by the demons or used as currency.

"No need to be so polite; leave the cleanup work to you!"

Li Zhangsheng did not state his title; he had no intention of staying here long, because the longer he stayed here, the more likely the capital of the Hu Kingdom would be broken by the demon army.

Seeing that the overall situation was settled, Li Zhangsheng immediately took back the dragons, rode on Aixi, and continued to fly toward the capital of the Hu Kingdom, disappearing in an instant, with quite the air of "having finished his task, he brushes off his clothes and hides his merit and fame."

Luo Tong stared blankly at Li Zhangsheng's departing back, his heart filled with reverence; he decided that after returning, he would inquire about Li Zhangsheng's information and build a temple and statue for him, believing that all the people in the city would also express their heartfelt gratitude once they knew Li Zhangsheng had saved them.

In the blink of an eye, after just a quarter of an hour, the capital of the Hu Kingdom was already visible in the distance.

At this moment, the capital of the Hu Kingdom was being shrouded by an oval light barrier covering the entire city; it was clearly at a critical juncture, forced to activate the Forbidden Array with full power.

Outside the capital of the Hu Kingdom, tens of thousands of the demon army had already gathered, attacking the Forbidden Array from all four sides, causing the Forbidden Array to ripple in layers.

Seeing that the Forbidden Array could still hold for a while, Li Zhangsheng began to observe the demon army from the shadows.

Within a few breaths, his gaze could not help but be cast toward the western city gate, and after locking onto a figure, he could not help but be startled.

He never expected that the Demon Commander would not stay near the Abyss Gate, but would actually dare to personally lead the army to attack the capital of the Hu Kingdom.

There was no Abyss Will here, nor was there any rich Demonic Qi; under the suppression of the Heavenly Dao Will, unless the Demon Commander possessed a Strange Treasure like the Xuan Kun Creation Stele, its strength would inevitably be greatly discounted.

In Li Zhangsheng's eyes, this Demon Commander was undoubtedly courting death.

Even if the Demon Commander was in the center of the demon army, Li Zhangsheng was confident he could slay the Demon Commander amidst the ten thousand troops.

If the demon army were as disciplined as a human army, Li Zhangsheng might not have much confidence, but given the nature of demons, as soon as danger appeared, they would guarantee to scatter like birds and beasts at the first opportunity.

To ensure nothing went wrong, Li Zhangsheng waited quietly; waiting until the demon army was all sent onto the field or the Demon Commander entered the fray personally would be the best time to strike.

Under the siege of the demons, the color of the light barrier covering the entire capital of the Hu Kingdom grew increasingly dim, giving one the feeling that it could shatter at any moment.

It was also at this time that the Demon Commander finally moved, leading a group of elite demons to charge to the front line.

Demons were products of selfishness; if the Demon Commander stayed in the rear, it would likely only get some scraps, or perhaps get nothing at all.

To seize trophies, the Demon Commander had to compete with other demons; this was perhaps the main reason it did not sit in the Abyss Gate and risked taking the chance.

Of course, this also had to do with the fact that the only King of the Hu Kingdom was being held back by another Abyss Gate.
