Chapter 1154: Demon Seeking Mirror

"Strange, where exactly did the problem arise?" the two muttered to themselves.

Liu Xian was still shaken; only then did she realize that Chen Yu had placed a Talisman on her, and it was precisely this Talisman that had concealed her aura, preventing the two from discovering her, yet even so, she was still badly frightened.

"Let's go, let's head back to the base first; the spiritual creatures nearby have almost all been caught by us," one of them replied.

"Yeah, that's true, hehe, although those things that condensed into form weren't human, a few of them were quite lively," one of them leered.

Just as the two were about to leave, one of them caught sight of Ning Ruoxue, and his eyes lit up.

Ning Ruoxue's appearance and figure were both top-tier, the type that one could never forget after a single glance in a crowd.

Moreover, these two were not exactly upright individuals themselves; Dragon Breath recruited Superpowered Persons from all over the world, and although the rules were strict, the mountains were high and the emperor was far away, so sometimes these people would act recklessly, relying on their own abilities.

"Hey, look, the thing from just now, isn't it right here?" The man with the mole on his face stared straight at Ning Ruoxue, drool even dripping from his mouth.

"Here? That's not right, the Demon Seeking Mirror didn't light up, it definitely isn't her." The other person glanced suspiciously at the Demon Seeking Mirror in his hand, but still couldn't find anything.

"I say it's her, so it is; no matter what, come back with us for a trip." The guy with the mole on his face gave a lewd laugh and reached his hand toward Ning Ruoxue.

Ning Ruoxue took a step back; with Chen Yu here, she was not afraid.

"Are you two freelancers for Dragon Breath?" Chen Yu stared at the man for a moment.

"Who are you?" The two were slightly startled; anyone who had heard of Dragon Breath was certainly no ordinary person.

"So, any normal person, as long as you take a fancy to them, becomes a demon?" Chen Yu stared coldly at the two: "You have ruined the reputation of Dragon Breath."

"You aren't from Dragon Breath?" The guy with the mole on his face looked at Chen Yu, seeing no trace of unusual aura on him; he felt Chen Yu was just an ordinary person, so his courage grew again.

"If I said I wasn't, would you kill me to silence me?" Chen Yu sneered: "Relying on having a few special abilities, you can act recklessly? You really are something."

"Kid, keep your eyes peeled; there are some people you can't afford to provoke." The guy with the mole on his face was full of hostility, looking like a bandit by trade.

"If I don't keep my eyes peeled, are you going to get up and hurt someone?" Chen Yu stared at him: "Do you know who I am?"

"Who are you?" The two looked at Chen Yu, feeling somewhat uneasy; after all, Chen Yu's tone and presence were unusual, and they were vaguely afraid.

"Chen Yu," Chen Yu said calmly.

"You are Chen Yu?" The pupils of both men shrank rapidly, and they were somewhat shocked.

If one were to ask who the most sought-after figure in Dragon Breath was this year, it would be none other than Chen Yu.

Chen Yu held no official position within Dragon Breath, but he reported directly to the Dragon Breath leaders Wang Zhongming and Shen Zhong, with authority equivalent to the Eight Great Heavenly Kings and higher than the Sixteen Deacons.

"That is indeed me," Chen Yu nodded: "As far as I know, Dragon Breath has no base here, and I heard that all Phantom-Shaped Demons within the vicinity, regardless of whether they are good or evil, are being seized by you. What are you doing?"

The two looked at each other; their dealings here were extremely secretive, primarily conducted to hide them from the upper echelons of Dragon Breath.

Now that they had run into Chen Yu, this was going to be a major incident.

"Speak," Chen Yu raised an eyebrow.

"Mr. Chen, this is a matter for our team, involving classified information, so it is inconvenient to disclose; you should please return," said the one holding the Demon Seeking Mirror.

"Involving classified information? So when you see someone pretty on the side of the road, you just act on your evil intentions?" Chen Yu sneered: "And within Dragon Breath, what classified information is there that I cannot touch?"

The two did not know how to answer, and just then, the man with the mole on his face looked at Liu Xian in surprise and shouted in a deep voice: "So it was her; she is who we were looking for just now."

Liu Xian was frightened until her face turned pale; the Talisman on her body had already failed, and now the two could see her origin at a glance.

"It really is you; to be able to evade my Demon Seeking Mirror, you're not simple. Seize her!" The other person flicked his hand, about to take action.

"She is under my protection; try touching her and see what happens," Chen Yu sneered.

"So what if she's under your protection? Chen Yu, you don't have a shred of Spiritual Power on you; I don't know what means you used to climb to your current position," the mole-faced man sneered: "I am taking this Liu Xian today; try and stop me."

"You think I'm an ordinary person?" Chen Yu looked at this Heizi with surprise; this guy probably hadn't even stepped through the gates of Dragon Breath.

Did he not know that if one's strength exceeds another's by too much, it is impossible to see the other person's abilities?

"Isn't that so? Today I'll see exactly what means the recently hyped-up Chen Yu used to climb up to the three giants of Dragon Breath." After the mole-faced man finished speaking, he gave a violent shout, and with a grab of his right hand, a Skull appeared in his hand.

The Skull was not very large, with eerie Underworld Fire darting from its two eyes, and its jaw opened, a ball of Underworld Fire condensing within its mouth.

"So you are an Evil Cultivator yourself," Chen Yu sneered: "According to Dragon Breath's rules, Evil Cultivators who walk the crooked path are not qualified to enter Dragon Breath, not even as freelancers. Who opened the back door for you?"

"That is none of your concern; go to hell!" The mole-faced man sneered, moving his hands in succession to urge the Skull, and the Skull in his hand suddenly slid out and attacked Chen Yu.

The surrounding temperature seemed to drop by over ten degrees in that instant; the Skull let out a series of shrill shrieks as it lunged fiercely at Chen Yu, and the eerie Underworld Fire erupted in that moment, spreading over ten zhang.

Chen Yu released a strand of Sword Qi that did not dissipate, forming a Sword Light in mid-air, and the sky-filling Underworld Fire was immediately blocked outside the countless rays of Sword Light.

Then, with a 'whoosh', the Underworld Fire suddenly returned and attacked the mole-faced man.

The mole-faced man let out a miserable shriek as his face was hit by the Underworld Fire, his hair and beard burned black; he fell to the ground with a thud, rolling several times before he could extinguish the fire.

And when he scrambled up in a sorry state, he saw that his Life-Bound Skull, which he had refined, was already in Chen Yu's hand.

"You are a Dharma Cultivator?" The mole-faced man suddenly realized, and he clamored: "Chen Yu, let go of my Dharma Artifact."

"Do you think the big shots of Dragon Breath are all as ignorant as you?" Chen Yu said leisurely.

"Fine, I was wrong, I apologize to you." The mole-faced man stood up and apologized to Chen Yu.
