Chapter 5401 of the Dragon King’s Order: If I take action, you will have no chance of survival
Xue Wuying understood Soul Eater’s thoughts and whispered in his ear, “Master, we still have troops. We can continue fighting. If we win, we can still force them to hand over the sacrificial manual.”
The Soul Eater nodded and said to the demon cultivators, “Who else dares to challenge?”
The demonic cultivators were silent for a moment, then a figure flashed and arrived in the middle of the battlefield.
The figure was a young man in a black robe, his face covered by a mask, his facial features were faint, only a pair of cold eyes were visible.
“I will do it,”
the young man’s voice was hoarse and deep.
Zi Yuan stared at the young man before her, her heart trembling.
He could feel an aura from the young man that was even stronger than Mu Baiyi’s, and terrifying, as if it came from hell.
“Who are you?” asked Zi Yuan.
“You don’t need to know,”
the young man said coldly. “Attack.”
Zi Yuan without hesitation, with a long sword in hand, and attacked again.
The sword, like a green snake emerging from a cave, pierced the young man’s throat.
The young man dodged Zi Yuan’s attack in a flash.
His speed was even faster than Mu Baiyi, and his movements were extremely strange, as if he was not affected by gravity.
“Hah?”
Zi Yuan was shocked and immediately adjusted her sword movements, attacking the young man again.
The young man still easily dodged Zi Yuan’s attacks, and even launched counterattacks from time to time.
Her attacks were very strange, without any definite moves, but each move was aimed at Zi Yuan’s weakness.
Zi Yuan slowly fell into a disadvantageous position, her breathing becoming more rapid, and her face becoming paler.
After the intense battle with Mu Baiyi, his spiritual energy was completely depleted. Now, facing a stronger opponent, he felt somewhat helpless.
“Ziyuan is in danger!”
Wu Hao exclaimed anxiously.
David also frowned. He could sense the young man’s extraordinary strength and the strange aura he radiated, unlike that of an ordinary demonic cultivator.
On the battlefield, the young man’s attacks intensified, forcing Ziyuan to retreat time and time again.
Several wounds appeared on his body, and blood stained his clothes.
“It’s time to end this,”
The young man said coldly. A black dagger suddenly appeared in his hand, emitting a dense aura of death, and stabbed Ziyuan’s heart.
A flash of despair flashed across Ziyuan’s eyes; she no longer had the strength to escape.
Just as the black dagger was about to pierce his heart, a golden spiritual energy suddenly shot from the side, hitting the dagger with a clang, deflecting it.
At the same time, a figure flashed past and blocked Ziyuan’s path.
He stared at the wounds on Zi Yuan’s body, a flash of anger flashing in his eyes. “Are you okay?”
Zi Yuan shook her head. “I’m fine, thank you.”
David nodded, then turned to the black-robed youth, his gaze icy. “You dare hurt her? You’re courting death!”
The young man stared at David with a glimmer of fear, but he forced himself to remain calm. “This is a duel between our demonic cultivators and theirs. Why are you interfering?”
“Duel?”
David sneered. “When Mu Baiyi wanted to kill Leng Yun, why didn’t you say it was a duel? Now you want to kill Zi Yuan, so…
Why can’t I intervene?” The young man fell silent, at a loss for words.
The Soul Eater, seeing this, said coldly, “You want to intervene?”
“You don’t need me now. When I need you, you’ll be dead!”
David said, supporting Zi Yuan as he walked back. The young man could only watch, not daring to act.
David’s aura intimidated him.
Zi Yuan leaned on David’s shoulder, feeling deeply moved. She had never seen a man treat her like this before.
If there weren’t so many people around, Zi Yuan would have given herself to David right then and there.
David had helped her so much, and she had no way to repay him, so she could only repay him with her body.
