The entire space trembled violently as the power of the white light storm raged, engulfing Tu Xiao’an.
"You damn hedgehog, fuck you!"
BOOM...!
Following Tu Xiao’an’s furious curse, an earth-shattering wave of energy exploded outward, sweeping in all directions. Tu Xiao’an reappeared between heaven and earth, a trickle of blood leaking from the corner of his mouth. He was a little stunned from the blow.
’Damn that White Demon King. Has he no shame?’
"You’re pretty tough."
The Saint Peng King was slightly surprised to see that Tu Xiao’an had survived an attack from the White Demon King, but a vicious, cruel smile soon spread across his face.
’Excellent. I haven’t had my fun with him yet. I was actually worried that snake would have been turned to ash by the White Demon King’s attack just now.’
’I’ll torture him some more, then kill him. Once this snake is dead, the Immortal Spirit Peacock’s soul-binding will be gone, and she’ll be free.’
’As for offending the Snake Race... what’s there to fear from a race that has lost its king? A nest of snakes without a head is just a pile of loose sand.’
WHOOSH...
The Saint Peng King’s figure once again vanished without a trace.
"Are you fucking kidding me? Is there no end to this?"
Although Tu Xiao’an couldn’t see the Saint Peng King’s movements, he sensed faint fluctuations of Energy in the space around him. His bewitching eyes narrowed, and a powerful Consciousness Power surged forth, blanketing the entire area.
Instantly, the area around Tu Xiao’an became a zone of immense gravitational pressure. An ordinary creature entering it would immediately be crushed into a bloody mist, completely unable to withstand the force.
As the pressure from his Consciousness Power took hold, a figure was forced into view. The Saint Peng King wore a vicious smile, throwing a sinister punch right at Tu Xiao’an’s face.
’This was the kind of simple attack he’d been using to torment the snake before. Taking advantage of his speed, it was simple and crude, but incredibly satisfying.’
But in that instant, the Saint Peng King felt as if a great mountain was crushing his nimble body, severely impeding his speed.
’Not good! I’m visible! He can see me!’ the Saint Peng King cursed inwardly.
"Having fun, are we? Now it’s my turn," Tu Xiao’an said, his eyes turning cold as they radiated a terrifying killing intent. He was incredibly frustrated after that inexplicable beating. Instantly, his entire body erupted in roiling Flame. With a thunderous shout, he roared, "Fire Dragon!"
Flame filled the sky. A churning, roaring giant Dragon shot out from Tu Xiao’an’s fist, rushing toward the Saint Peng King in a Devouring blaze.
"You call this an attack?" the Saint Peng King sneered. He flapped the black wings on his back, and a fierce gale erupted, instantly dissipating the Devouring Fire Dragon.
BOOM...!
The next second, the Saint Peng King’s eyes bulged. His slender body doubled over as a fist slammed into his stomach. He looked up to see Tu Xiao’an’s delicate face.
PAIN... PAIN... PAIN...!
’That punch... The force it contained was immense. If it had struck a mountain, the mountain would have been pulverized.’
"Feels good, doesn’t it?" Tu Xiao’an demanded, his face cold and his body wreathed in crackling light. A current of Thunder shot from his fist directly into the Saint Peng King’s body.
AH... AH... AH...!
The Saint Peng King let out a bloodcurdling scream, his very soul trembling. The Thunder contained Celestial Power!
"It’s getting dark."
"Huh?"
A Dark Flame surged forth, enveloping the Saint Peng King completely. He was plunged into absolute darkness.
"Taste my Eighteen Bird-Slaying Fist!" Tu Xiao’an’s eyes were filled with bloodlust. Without pausing for breath, he raised his fists and unleashed a torrential storm of blows upon the Saint Peng King.
Every single punch contained an Elemental Attribute Ability, inflicting unimaginable damage.
THUD... THUD... THUD...!
The scene of the snake’s torture had taken a dramatic turn, transforming into the torture of the bird.
Tu Xiao’an was determined to return every blow he had received.
The Saint Peng King’s miserable screams echoed across the heavens.
The Demon Spirits below watched, dumbfounded. ’Are they just taking turns beating each other senseless?’
The White Demon King’s expression darkened. He coldly watched the Saint Peng King getting pummeled, then once again pointed a finger from afar. A white light erupted with enough force to shatter mountains and make rivers flow backward.
"Damn hedgehog, you again!"
Seeing this, Tu Xiao’an sent the bird-man flying with one last punch and then flashed away. He knew taking an attack like that head-on would not be pleasant.
But as Tu Xiao’an changed position, the beam of white light locked onto him like a heat-seeking missile, vowing not to stop until it hit its mark.
The moment the White Demon King’s attack appeared, its chilling light seemed to freeze a person’s very soul, leaving them with no choice but to await their execution.
"Fuck you!" Tu Xiao’an roared, his anger surging like a torrential river. He had no choice but to gather his full power into a single punch to counteract the powerful beam of light.
"RUMBLE..."
The world shook, and everything was lost in a vast expanse of white. The hearts of the Demons below trembled. ’Those guys up there are all monsters. They can make the world tremble with a casual flick of a finger.’
「After a while, the chaos subsided.」
The Saint Peng King looked a little worse for wear. He wiped a trace of blood from the corner of his mouth, his gaze now like that of an abyssal beast. ’How many years has it been since I was last injured?’
"Brother Peng, are you alright?" the White Demon King asked with a chuckle.
The Saint Peng King cupped his hands slightly toward the White Demon King. "Thank you for your help just now, Brother Bai. I was careless."
The White Demon King shook his head, sighing to himself. ’That snake has truly become a force to be reckoned with. His growth since his recent ascension is astounding.’
"Why don’t you two come at me together?"
Tu Xiao’an stood in the distance, his cold gaze sweeping across the battlefield. The observing Demons below couldn’t help but shudder. He was a wild beast, a venomous snake.
"Such arrogance! You’re just a measly snake! Who the hell do you think you are?" the Saint Peng King roared in fury. ’That was just a warm-up. It meant nothing.’
’All I can say is, this snake has some real power. His combat strength is no less than that of a Demon King.’
The White Demon King gave a cold smile. "Brother Peng, you should step back. This snake came to ruin my wedding today. It’s only right that I be the one to kill him."
"No, Brother Bai. With your status, why use a butcher’s knife to kill a chicken? I, the Saint Peng King, will take the liberty today."
The White Demon King smiled and nodded. If the Saint Peng King were to step down now, he would lose a lot of face.
"What are you two yammering about? Just come at me together. One Deep Mountain Demon King, one Demon King... what do I, the Snake King, have to fear? Fighting one is no different from fighting two."
Tu Xiao’an’s domineering posture was on full display, true to his nature of never failing to say something utterly shocking.
The White Demon King’s eyes turned to ice. "You are not worthy," he said flatly.
"I’m not worthy? You fucking sneak-attacked me just now!" Tu Xiao’an roared. ’What a piece of work. So I guess your sneak attack doesn’t count as you two ganging up on me, huh? I only fought a few rounds with the Saint Peng King, and that asshole already hit me with two of those white light attacks. The power of each one was terrifying. And he still has the gall to say I’m ’not worthy’? Have some fucking shame. This is a classic case of a whore wanting a monument to her chastity.’
At his words, the faces of both the White Demon King and the Saint Peng King turned livid. They were left speechless, and even a little embarrassed.
The Saint Peng King shot the White Demon King a reproachful glance, as if to say, ’I never asked for your help. Now you’ve given him ammunition against us.’
The White Demon King’s face twitched. His expression seemed to reply, ’I couldn’t help it. I had no choice.’
