Chapter 78: Eight Precepts Shows Its Might, the Ice Demon Appears

As a war drum sounded.

The soldiers of Luoyue City charged toward the incoming Phantom Demon Army.

And for Yan Xiao, this was something he had been waiting for for a long time.

Phantom Demons might be a disaster for others, but for him, it was a prime opportunity to earn Fear Value.

He felt not a shred of psychological burden in killing Phantom Demons.

Most of the soldiers in Luoyue City were martial artists with little cultivation; fighting against Phantom Demons, casualties were inevitable.

The ones who would decide the victory were still the cultivators.

"Move out, watch your formations, don't fight on your own."

At the order, Yan Xiao charged ahead, leading the way, holding his Magic Sword, hacking and slashing left and right—what a thrill.

"You gray-haired old fool, dare you fight me!"

Yan Xiao roared at the sky, and the only response he received was the hissing of the Phantom Demons.

"Idiot!"

Tingxue rolled her eyes at Yan Xiao, not knowing what he was so excited about.

But when she looked back, she saw the members of Juesha acting as if they had been injected with adrenaline, shouting "Dare you fight me!" as they followed in Yan Xiao's footsteps to slaughter their way into the Phantom Demon Army.

Even the youngest ones, Ma Jianyang and Ma Xiaoyun, were flushed with excitement, running in the center of the formation.

The two of them would almost never encounter a Phantom Demon; they were perfectly safe.

Yan Xiao mainly wanted them to personally experience the cruelty of the battlefield.

"Yaoniminsanqian!"

Wang Dazhu unleashed his signature technique, killing a Zhutou Huan Yao with a single blade strike.

The companions nearby were left dumbfounded.

"As expected of the Chief Disciple of Luoxia Mountain, this combat power is truly strong and violent."

Several Juesha members who had originally looked down on Wang Dazhu immediately gave him a thumbs up.

Wang Dazhu smiled smugly and unleashed another 【Yaoniminsanqian】, this time even more violently, killing two Phantom Demons with one strike.

"Senior Brother is truly remarkable."

A disciple nearby complimented him.

"Average, just average. Look at my Master; that is what you call truly formidable!"

Wang Dazhu said modestly.

Everyone followed his gaze and saw Yan Xiao swing his sword; a ball of flame immediately erupted from the tip, burning the patch of Phantom Demons in front of him to ashes.

"See? My Master is just that badass; I admire him so much."

Wang Dazhu said proudly.

Everyone nodded and shouted loudly, "Sect Master is mighty, Young Master is domineering!"

"City Lord, Sect Master Yan Xiao's combat power is truly formidable. Look at this charge of his; more than half of the Phantom Demon Army has been wiped out."

On the city wall, a general watched the battle with a look of shock.

He had never seen anyone capable of killing Phantom Demons so quickly.

"He is the reincarnation of the Ancient Sword Demon, so he is bound to be powerful."

Chang Yongsheng said as if it were a matter of course.

"I heard you are on intimate terms with him. I wonder if he has any thoughts of taking a concubine? My daughter is quite lovely; if she could marry Sect Master Yan, that would be wonderful."

With the battle decided and victory in hand, the generals couldn't help but chat about personal matters.

"Brother Yan is definitely a lecherous man, but he has his bottom line. Look at all the beauties around him; aside from Fairy Feng Jingting, I haven't heard of him being with anyone else."

"Your daughter? I think it's unlikely."

Chang Yongsheng shook his head, not optimistic.

In truth, he had his own selfish motives, such as setting him up with Wanqing...

"Wanqing has a cold personality; who knows which bastard might take advantage of her in the future. It would be better to betroth her to Brother Yan. That's settled!"

Chang Yongsheng pondered secretly, thinking of finding an opportunity to get Yan Xiao drunk and then make him agree to this marriage.

Given Yan Xiao's tolerance—a single cup and he's down—he was very confident.

"Kill!"

The members of Juesha turned back to fight, only to find that the Phantom Demons in the field had already been wiped out, and they all wore expressions of dissatisfaction.

Yan Xiao checked his backend income: 30,000 Fear Value.

A bit low.

"It would be great if the Phantom Demon Army came a few more times."

Yan Xiao sighed.

Hearing this, everyone had strange expressions, not knowing why the Sect Master was so regretful.

"How does it feel? Is it completely different from the feeling of previous battles?"

Yan Xiao put away his Magic Sword, toyed with the Golden Scale Shuttle, and looked at the Juesha members as he asked.

"Yes, Sect Master, it feels very exciting and exhilarating."

A disciple replied.

"Call me Young Master when we are outside. Anything else? What do the others feel? Speak up and let me hear it," Yan Xiao said with a smile.

"It feels very safe; there are comrades all around, no need to worry about being ambushed from behind."

"The efficiency of hunting Phantom Demons is high."

Several disciples shouted loudly.

Yan Xiao smiled with satisfaction; this was the effect he wanted, to let Juesha merge into one through repeated tempering, becoming brothers in arms, while also honing their sharp edge.

To become a sharp sword in the world of cultivation, making enemies tremble at the mere mention of them.

"Does Tingxue have anything to add?"

Yan Xiao looked at Tingxue and asked with a smile.

"I feel it is very boring."

Tingxue said indifferently.

"It is fine to feel bored for now; you won't feel that way later."

Yan Xiao did not find it strange; Tingxue's strength was vastly different from theirs, and in her eyes, this coordination was just an unnecessary effort.

But Yan Xiao believed that one day, she would feel proud and honored for Juesha.

"This kid really has some ability."

In the mountain forest, a man with a silver mask secretly spied on Yan Xiao, and seeing Yan Xiao's performance, he could not help but admire him.

"Master of the Pavilion, more Phantom Demons are attacking from the rear, there are 3 Level 5 Great Demons."

A man in black hurriedly reported.

"A good opportunity!"

Yinmian let out a cold sneer; he wanted to see how Yan Xiao would deal with the three Great Demons ahead.

If he died, then that would be easy to handle; if he didn't die? Then he would go and deliver the finishing blow.

In his view, this was Heaven wanting Yan Xiao to lose his life here.

"Who the hell keeps flashing light in my eyes! Are you sick!"

Yan Xiao was hit in the eyes by the sunlight reflected from Yinmian's mask, and he couldn't help but point directly at Yinmian and curse out loud.

"Not good, he has discovered us."

The man in black said in terror, not expecting their target to be exposed so quickly.

Yinmian was also startled; his concealment methods were so remarkable, yet he was still discovered by Yan Xiao.

This Yan Xiao was truly not simple!

"It is the Master of the Pavilion of Yanyu Tower."

Tingxue said in a low voice.

"The Master of the Pavilion of Yanyu Tower?"

Yan Xiao exclaimed, hurriedly putting on his Sunglasses to lock onto their positions.

"Heiyu, go bind his wife and bring her here, just in case."

Yinmian ordered.

"Damao was prepared long ago; I'm afraid he has already taken action by now," Heiyu said, fishing for credit, feeling very smug.

"Damn it! Son of a bitch, this bastard is asking for death."

Yan Xiao had just locked onto Yinmian when he heard this sentence, and he immediately flew into a rage.

Was this person going to kidnap Feng Jingting to threaten him?

He had already passed a death sentence on Yinmian.

"Tingxue..."

Yan Xiao was just about to order Tingxue to lead the team back to Luoxia Mountain when, at that moment, the war drums were beaten again, and the Phantom Demon Army attacked once more.

At the same time, the ground began to shake; Yan Xiao rose on his sword, and looking from the air, three giant Phantom Demons were heading this way.

His Sunglasses locked on; they were actually all Level 5 Great Demons.

"Something is wrong!"

Yan Xiao frowned; the giant ape in the middle was actually not a Phantom Demon but a Demon Beast, a living Demon Beast.

It looked like it was even a Little Demon King.

Could a Demon Beast control Phantom Demons now?

This was not a good sign.

A demon with intelligence was much harder to deal with than one without.

Retracting his gaze, that man in black was clearly heading toward the Feng Family Medicine Garden; what was to be done about this?

If he left, Juesha and the soldiers here would all be in danger; if he didn't go to save Feng Jingting, how could he be worthy of being Feng Jingting's man.

"Tingxue, your mission is to protect Juesha well and try your best to delay for time until I return."

Yan Xiao ordered Tingxue in an extremely serious tone.

If Tingxue chose to betray him at this time, then there would be no need for her to stay.
