Sole Sword Supremacy-Chapter 536 - 540: Demon Race Attacks (Part 2)

As they spoke, Wang Junze took the initiative to disconnect from Luo Qingxuan.

By now, his recovery was almost complete, and continuing further would mean completely absorbing Luo Qingxuan’s strength, something Wang Junze naturally wouldn’t do.

With a slight gesture, the Great Nether Mirror beside him flew back up and directly entered the center of Wang Junze’s forehead.

Previously, Wang Junze’s injuries were too severe to dare easily mobilizing the power of the Great Nether Mirror. Now that he had recovered, the mirror became an absolute protective treasure, capable of even reversing the tide of battle in many situations.

Opening the door, Wang Junze strode out directly.

"Brother Wang!"

Seeing Wang Junze emerge, the disciple of the Profound Moon Sword Sect at the door couldn’t help but reveal a trace of joy as he hurriedly bowed in greeting.

Despite having left the Profound Moon Sword Sect for a while, Wang Junze’s reputation within the sect remained high, even rivaling Luo Qingxuan’s. Otherwise, so many disciples wouldn’t have been willing to follow Luo Qingxuan to the Nether Sea this time.

"Thank you, everyone!"

With a slight apology, Wang Junze softly replied, "There may be a fierce battle ahead, and I’ll need everyone’s help."

"Brother, what are you saying? As long as you command, we’re all willing to fight alongside you!"

Upon hearing Wang Junze’s words, the disciples of the Profound Moon Sword Sect agreed immediately.

"Young Master!"

At the same time, Peng Ru hurried over. She originally wanted to throw herself into Wang Junze’s arms, but given the number of people present, she restrained her excitement and simply bowed.

"Don’t worry, I’m fine!"

With a smile, Wang Junze walked over and gently patted Peng Ru’s head, speaking tenderly.

Meanwhile, Pei Haoran had already brought people back to the Netherworld Mansion. As these people flooded in, many also recognized Wang Junze, and several came up to greet him.

"Young Master Ye, you’ve recovered?"

In the crowd, Wang Junze quickly spotted several familiar faces and smiled, "Brother Wan, long time no see!"

"Haha, Brother Ye, you’re being too polite. These days, you’ve been the superstar of the Nether Sea."

Master of All Things greeted him with a smile and said, "In the future, I might depend on you for a living, Brother Ye, so please take good care of me."

"You’re too kind!"

With a wave of his hand, Wang Junze turned his gaze to the others, slowly saying, "The situation is urgent, so let’s set aside the formalities for now. I’ve just received the news that the Demon Race and some demon cultivators are rampaging through the city. I, Mr. Ye, albeit not very capable, will naturally take responsibility now that I’ve taken over the Netherworld Mansion. However, to win this battle, I’ll also need everyone’s assistance!"

"There’s no need for pleasantries; I’m sure Brother Pei has already informed everyone."

After a pause, Wang Junze continued, "I’ll make a promise to everyone. Although I am a disciple of the Profound Moon Sword Sect, I am also the demon cultivator Ye Piaoling familiar to you all! Should I take over Netherworld City, I will ensure the interests of the demon cultivators, and Netherworld City will remain everyone’s Netherworld City!"

These words had been spoken by Pei Haoran before, but hearing it from Wang Junze’s own mouth was indeed different.

Especially since Wang Junze dared to declare in front of so many disciples of the Profound Moon Sword Sect that he was the demon cultivator Ye Piaoling, it also reassured these demon cultivators.

After all, usually, not to mention the disciples of the Four Great Celestial Sects, even ordinary righteous cultivators looked down on demon cultivators. Now that Wang Junze could treat them on par with the disciples of the Four Great Celestial Sects, this courage was indeed remarkable.

"Hehehe!"

In the midst of the conversation, a sharp laugh suddenly echoed from above.

"What a huge joke, a disciple of the Four Great Celestial Sects pretending to be a demon cultivator, and people actually believe this nonsense?"

As the words fell, a terrifying force of demon qi suddenly gathered, and the next moment, a demon race with a green face and fangs, resembling a Yaksha, descended from the sky!

A Transformed Great Demon!

And one of the top Transformed Great Demons at that. Judging by its aura, it was likely only a hair’s breadth away from being a Demon King, equivalent to a top-notch Path-Entering Powerhouse in human terms.

"Get down here!"

In an instant, three cold lights shot out, not even waiting for Wang Junze to speak, Huang Siyu had already acted.

Though they had quite a few experts on Wang Junze’s side, only Huang Siyu had reached the Taoist Cultivation level; the others, even Luo Qingxuan, were only at the Divine Travel stage.

Of course, Luo Qingxuan’s Divine Travel ability was far more terrifying than an ordinary Path-Entering level.

"Ding, ding, ding!"

Facing Huang Siyu’s attack, the Yaksha remained unflinching, directly using his physical body to withstand the three hidden weapons.

A clear sound rang out as the three hidden weapons fell to the ground, failing even to pierce his skin.

The Demon Race was renowned for their formidable bodies, and this Yaksha was among the best. Even Huang Siyu’s hidden weapons couldn’t harm him.

Boom!

Taking a step forward, Huang Siyu unleashed her Path Domain, morphing into a poisonous mist, enveloping the area in front of her.

Her greatest strength wasn’t hidden weapons but poison.

"Using poison?"

Glancing at Huang Siyu, the Yaksha sneered, scornfully saying, "As long as I don’t step into your Path Domain, this bit of poison won’t harm me."

Despite his words, the Yaksha was indeed wary of Huang Siyu, subconsciously stepping back a bit.

"What other experts are there? Since you’ve come, why not reveal yourselves? Surely you don’t have the guts to provoke us alone."

Unfazed, Wang Junze cast his gaze around at the surrounding void, speaking calmly.

"Haha, I’ve long heard of Ye Piaoling’s name, and I must say, your eyesight is impressive, though your cultivation is a bit lacking."

As he spoke, several figures emerged from the void.

These demon race and demon cultivators were unaware of Wang Junze’s conquest of the Netherworld Mansion. They had come well-prepared to loot Netherworld City, and naturally, they didn’t just bring the Yaksha.

With these experts revealing themselves simultaneously, immense pressure descended upon the others.

In addition to the Yaksha, two other Transformed Great Demons of equivalent level were present from the Demon Race, and an additional Path Domain level powerhouse under the Cyan Robe Demon Venerable.

Adding it all up, there were actually four Path Domain level experts among them!

Such a lineup was incredibly formidable.

In comparison, even counting Luo Qingxuan, Wang Junze’s side was far weaker, especially now that Luo Qingxuan’s strength was greatly diminished. The gap was even wider.

For a moment, everyone’s morale dropped a few more notches.
