The Emperor Reigns Them All-Chapter 457 - The Standing Position
Chapter 457 The Standing Position
The demon bear did not dare to hurt Li Ye in the City Lord’s Mansion, but this did not mean that the demon python would attack with reservation.
Just like when the demons were still rational, they wouldn’t attack Li Ye together because they lost their magic treasures. But no one could guarantee what kind of outrageous things they would do when the brave and fearless demons became extremely angry.
So Li Ye started a fight without scruple and reservation, and his first attack was completely killing.
In the face of a cultivator at the peak period of the Real Immortal Realm, Li Ye would not be arrogant when he started a fight. He would not avoid hurting the vulnerabilities of the other side and give the other side opportunities to escape.
This launch of sword was simple, but it was absolutely fast. The sword arrived as soon as it was launched.
It was not only fast, but also fierce. The sword light was like a meteor, as if it had the power to pierce the sky!
Li Ye’s murderous intention was felt by the demon python the first time, which made him furious. A cultivator in the Ground Immortal Realm actually wanted to kill a cultivator in the Real Immortal Realm, which was a great insult to the cultivator in the Real Immortal Realm.
The demon python let out a low roar from his throat, and his eyes became scarlet in an instant, as if bottomless abyss and hell were hidden in them, which made people shiver at a glance.
At the same time, the huge axe in his right hand was raised high and the surging spiritual Qi was burning violently around it, making sharp crackling sounds. It seemed that the air had been burned.
After the burning of the spiritual Qi, countless streaks of lightning were emitted, and finally gathered into a rotundity of light that was more dazzling than the sun, which then rushed to Li Ye like a sharp arrow!
The demon python was a Great Cultivator in the Real Immortal Realm. His power of cultivation and reaction speed was much better than that of the cultivator in the Ground Immortal Realm. In other words, they were not at the same level.
Li Ye’s attack of sword was fast enough. As soon as other demons saw it, the sword light was already in front of the demon python. That was not the speed a cultivator in the Ground Immortal Realm could have, but the demon python could still deal with it calmly.
The thundering rotundity of light and lightning had arrived in front of Li Ye, but Li Ye had no intention of dodging. He didn’t seem to pay attention to the attack at all, which was enough to destroy the cultivator in the Ground Immortal Realm in an instant.
His sword went straight to the throat of the demon python at full speed with strong power.
The demon python widened his eyes and shouted, “You are courting death!”
The demon python was angry, and all demons were shocked.
Li Ye’s behavior obviously showed that he was going to directly fight with the demon python, which made many demons who wanted to see what special tactics or secret methods Li Ye had feel disappointed and think that Li Ye was crazy in their minds.
“A cultivator in the Ground Immortal Realm has the power comparable with that of the cultivator in the Sky Immortal Realm for some reasons, but he fought recklessly instead of bringing his superiority in other aspects into full play while fighting against the cultivator in the Real Immortal Realm. Isn’t he courting death?” Wu Liuqi was confused and asked.
Childe Python sneered and said, “If he wants to die, who could stop him? Does he really think that we dare not do anything to him because he is the Prince An from the Tang Empire? Are we going to be killed by him without any resistance as long as he says he was invited by the seven sages? What a dream!”
His words were agreed by many cultivators of demon clan.
They just didn’t understand why Li Ye dared to fight recklessly. Now, after hearing the explanation of Childe Python, they suddenly realized that the reason why Li Ye had no scruples was that he thought he was special and the demon python didn’t dare to kill him.
Thinking of that, the demons sneered one by one.
As a cultivator in the Real Immortal Realm, the demon python could control his cultivation skillfully and perfectly. It was easy for him to hurt Li Ye seriously but not to kill him. Moreover, even if the demon python killed Li Ye, he would leave Panfeng City and live in the mountains and forests at worst. The seven sages could not find him and he could still live at ease.
Li Ye did not know the thoughts of the demons, nor did he pay attention to their reactions. The demon python’s axe was rushing to him and the dazzling rotundity of lights and lightning made his vision full of white lights, so that he could hardly see anything immediately.
“Get down!” The demon python roared.
“You are not qualified to say that to me!” When the sword light and the rotundity of light and lightning collided, Li Ye narrowed his eyes.
In an instant, the power of Dragon Qi, people’s Luck and Way of Emperor broke out around the sword, just like mountain torrents. Accompanied by a loud roar of dragon, the sword light suddenly brightened, which then was no worse than the rotundity of light and lightning.
The axe and sword collided with each other, and the explosion of air sounded in ears. The Spiritual Qi, like fireworks, overflowed, rippled and spread, coming out of the courtyard in a flash.
The clothes and hair of the demons flew backwards together at the same time. The cultivators in the Ground Immortal Realm suddenly shook and lost balance. They almost fell from the air. Those cultivators with lower cultivation turned pale and those with poor cultivation even tended to vomit blood, because their viscera were hurt.
This made the demons’ expression change greatly, and they all looked at one person and one demon in the war in surprise.
They didn’t expect that the spreading Spiritual Qi caused by the head-on confrontation of them would be so powerful!
It was not just the power of the demon python. All the demons had some knowledge. They immediately realized that such a movement could only be triggered when two cultivators in the Real Immortal Realm fought!
“Prince An’s combat power is not just comparable with that of the cultivator in the Sky Immortal Realm… but it’s comparable with that of the cultivator in the Real Immortal Realm?!” cried a cultivator of demon clan.
The fierce vibrations from the fighting axe shook the demon python’s hand, which made him almost unable to hold it. Besides, the hegemonic power from Li Ye’s sword rushed into his meridians along with the fighting axe and went on the rampage, making his arms tremble for a moment!
The demon python was shocked and his eyes became fiercer. He didn’t expect that Li Ye’s attack would be so powerful.
He had used seventy or eighty percent of his power, which he thought was enough to hurt Li Ye seriously. Unexpectedly, Li Ye wasn’t knocked down by the fighting axe as he expected. Instead, the demon python was shaken by the vibrating axe.
The demon python was surprised, but he was not greatly frightened. After all, he didn’t use all his strength and had attacked Li Ye only once. He didn’t suffer any real damage. There were more chances for him to attack.
At this moment, the sword and the axe parted as soon as they collided with each other.
The demon python suddenly saw Li Ye’s eyes were sharper and a kind of sharp and cold momentum burst from him. The demon python was well-informed and had already realized something bad. Li Ye’s momentum was rising instead of decreasing, which was clearly the omen of launching a strong attack again!
“He, with the cultivation in the Ground Immortal Realm, had a head-on fight with me just now. But now he actually could launch the next attack faster than me!” The demon python realized that his previous attack hadn’t given any pressure to Li Ye at all!
“Sword Qi Born Lotus!” As Li Ye said the incantation, his figure suddenly became blurred in the surprised and alert eyes of demon python.
In the field of demon python’s vision, suddenly a lotus blossomed. It was very close, but couldn’t be reached, as if it was blossoming in another space and only a projection was seen.
The demon python suddenly sensed strong danger and chill on his back. The danger he felt when Li Ye fiercely stared at him and said he was courting death before he started a fight appeared again.
“Howl!” Without any hesitation, the demon python exerted all his cultivation to help the body turn rapidly and quickly change an angle that could not be ignored in a very short time.
The demon python suddenly felt cold on his shoulder. Li Ye passed him like a flash of light, which made the demon feel unreal. But the cold eyes of the other side were clearly seen by the demon python.
The sword light directly tore off the demon python’s body-protecting spiritual clothes, leaving a striking wound on his body. At the same time, blood appeared on his shoulder.
The demon python, who was two realms higher than Li Ye, was wounded by Li Ye almost as soon as they started a fight. Although the wound was not very serious, it also made the demon python angry. A sense of humiliation he had never had before rose from the bottom of his heart and surrounded him in an instant, so that his hair bristled and he blushed with shame.
“I’ll kill you!” The demon python roared angrily and attacked Li Ye with fighting axe and trident in his hands alternately.
At this moment, the demon python’s strength, speed and actions all reached the extreme. Few of them were reserved. Instead, they were even stronger than usual. The demon python was ashamed into anger.
At the moment when the demons saw the blood splashing, they were all stunned and thought they were wrong. “Shouldn’t the blood belong to Li Ye? Shouldn’t Li Ye be injured?”
However, the demon python’s angry roar clearly told them that he was indeed wounded by Li Ye. He was wounded by a cultivator in the Ground Immortal Realm from the mortal world during the first head-on attack!
Wu Liuqi couldn’t help murmuring, “The deputy commander was injured… How long hadn’t it happened? Had this Prince An been hiding his strength all the time?”
Those female demons who were worried about Li Ye were screaming one by one at the moment, as if they were the ones who were injured.
The demon python was furious and started a fight with extreme power.
Every time he attacked, there were lightning and wind flickered before the fighting axe and trident. The torn air gave out harsh sounds, which made the eardrum ache. Air masses burst out one after another. Although they were not big, they were as many as stars. They kept appearing around him, making him look like a God.
This made all the demons watching the battle involuntarily distanced themselves from them for fear of being hurt.
Not only the cultivators in the Ground Immortal Realm and Sky Immortal Realm, but also the cultivators in the Real Immortal Realm were shocked. They looked at each other, and they all felt each other’s worry and fear. Obviously, if it was they who faced the attack of demon python, they could not take it.
They couldn’t take it, but Li Ye did.
In the field, every time the demon python who was holding a huge axe and trident in his hands attacked, he would show his great power that the cultivator in the Real Immortal Realm dared not be careless about. However, Li Ye, like a sparrow, wandered and flew around the demon python. Sometimes he was blurred, while sometimes he suddenly appeared.
Every time he moved, there would be a cyan and white sword light hitting towards the demon python. Sometimes it was as long as a piece of cloth, sometimes it was like a curved moon, and sometimes it was like a powerful arrow. With the sword light constantly appearing and disappearing, the attack of demon python was either evaded by Li Ye or hit by his Sword Qi, and then disappeared.
If the demon python was a big tree that didn’t move like a mountain, Li Ye was the wind. One was as steady as a mountain, while the other was light and elegant.
However, when the demons saw the situation, they all looked strange. Because the situation in the field was that Li Ye was attacking with all his strength, while the demon python was defending with all his strength!
This also meant that the demon python was hitting by Li Ye all the way!
One was attacking while the other was defending, which decided the keynote of the battle and differentiated the weak and the strong.
“Prince An… what kind of freak is he?” Wu Liuqi swallowed hard and said. As soon as he finished speaking, voices of surprise sounded one after another. Although they were deliberately made in a low voice, they were still very clear. Because there was blood again.
That blood still came from the demon python!
As soon as the blood appeared, the demon python’s angry voice sounded and his attack was fiercer.
Soon, the blood appeared for the third time.
This time it was from Li Ye.
The demons were relieved. The demon python finally hurt Li Ye. If he had been suffering the suppression from Li Ye all the time and could not hurt Li Ye, he would be bound to lose. Only when Li Ye was traumatized could the demon python have a chance to turn the tables.
But before the demons could felicitate, the fourth blood appeared. It was from the demon python again!
With the beginning like that, the frequency of the appearance of blood suddenly increased rapidly. It almost appeared in succession!
The demons held their breath and dared not be careless for fear of missing the details determining the outcome.
Their expressions were not good-looking, because most of the blood was from the demon python.
However, those young female demons screamed again and again as the blood appeared, which sounded harsh and made other demons upset. Some demons gave them hate-filled looks and even yelled at them to shut up. But what they received was the group attack of the female demons.
These female demons were already involved in the play deeply.
Wu Liuqi really couldn’t understand why a cultivator from the mortal world could make these female demons crazy.
At this time, Wu Liuqi suddenly found some abnormalities.
When no one noticed, a braided little girl in a green coat and skirt bypassed the disordered crowd and came to the one side of the demons, staring at them calmly.
Her fists were quietly clenched, her back was slightly arched, and her feet were slightly divided back and forth.
Wu Liuqi’s eyes turned sharp. This was a posture ready for action. That was to say, as long as the little girl was willing, she could launch an all-out attack in an instant!
However, before Wu Liuqi could think about it, he saw the demon leopard standing at the other side of the demons.
The demon leopard was still standing straight with an indifferent look, arms crossed before his chest. His eyes were slightly narrowed, which made people suspect that he was still refreshing his spirit by closing his eyes. But Wu Liuqi knew that no one of them could escape as long as the demon leopard, a cultivator in the Taiyi Real Immortal Realm, started a fight!
Wu Liuqi was shocked.
It was not because of Wu You’s and demon leopard’s posture ready for action, but because of their standing position!
They were not in the position where they could support Li Ye, but in the position where they could control the demons!
That was to say, they were guarding against the sudden support to the demon python from anyone of the demons!
Wu Liuqi felt strange.
Because this move meant that they had full confidence in Li Ye’s victory over the demon python.
