“David, the old man is really very strong. If I didn’t have the ancestral talisman and my own strength slowly recovered, I might have been killed by now.”
Hu Mazi swallowed the pill and circulated his spiritual energy to recover, his voice sounding weak.
“He must be the master of the Black Wind Demon, whose cultivation is immeasurable.”
David frowned. “The stronghold on the outskirts of Mount Jiupan has such a powerful expert. It seems that the waters of Mount Jiupan are deeper than we imagined.”
He remembered the wolf demon’s words: The Black Wind Demon had participated in the attack on the Hu clan, and the old man, as its master, was probably involved as well.
What disturbed him even more was when the old man mentioned that the Black Demon Palace was also involved, meaning that the extermination of the Hu clan was most likely caused by the combined efforts of various parties.
A flash of determination flashed in Hu Mazi’s eyes. “No matter how many people are involved, I will find out the truth.”
David nodded, about to speak, when suddenly his expression solidified: “Someone is coming!”
As soon as the words left his mouth, there was a whooshing sound from outside the cave entrance, and three dark figures landed at the entrance like ghosts, blocking the way.
The leader wore a black robe, his face covered by a hood, only revealing a pair of eyes sparkling with red light. He is a member of the Black Demon Palace!
“Mr. Chen, Mr. Hu, how are you?”
The black-robed man laughed hoarsely, his voice rough as sandpaper, “The Witch invites you to come back with us.”
“Youyue finally couldn’t hold back anymore.” David gripped the Dragon Slayer Sword tightly, his spiritual energy circulating quietly within him. “How many people did he send?”
“The three of us are enough to face the two of you.”
The two people behind the black-robed man stepped forward, their aura comparable to Youyue, which clearly showed that they were top-notch experts of the Demon Palace.
Hu Mazi forced himself to his feet, clutching the clan leader talisman in his hand. The white light radiating from the talisman resonated with the spiritual energy within him, giving him a little encouragement: “Want us to go back? First, ask the talisman in my hand if it agrees!”
“Acting recklessly.”
The black-robed man on the left snorted coldly, his figure flashed and he closed in, his five fingers forming claws, gripping Hu Mazi’s throat with dense demonic energy.
This claw attack was extremely fast; Even before the claw arrived, the foul-smelling demonic energy had already made the air in the cave thick and sticky.
Hu Mazi did not dare to delay and poured his remaining spiritual power into the clan leader token. The token emitted a dazzling white light, forming a light screen in front of him.
