Refining the Mountains and Rivers

This voice…

Qin Yu narrowed his eyes. Sure enough, it was Spring Breeze 13th Madame. It seemed that he was right before – this woman had a considerable background.

As for this mist, while he had no idea what it was, he felt a bit of dread towards it.

Of course, something like dread didn’t mean anything. At most it meant that the mist was a bit more dangerous. Qin Yu had 10,000 ways he could disperse the mist. However, this wasn’t his time to make an appearance. It was time for Feature to step onto the stage.

So after Qin Yu narrowed his eyes, he returned them to normal. Without moving, he looked as if he didn’t hear or see anything.

Feature said, “Qin Yu, it looks like they’ve come to cause trouble with you.”

“Is that so.” He glanced at her. He had no idea what she was doing, but he decided not to say much to avoid ruining her plans.

Feature shook her head helplessly. “This fellow, you always like to stir up trouble. You really caused a ruckus now. Do you really expect your sister to wipe your ass every time?

“Forget it. I’ll help you one more time. Remember, after this matter is over, you owe me another favor.”

This woman, she was definitely taking advantage of his silence right now.

Qin Yu gnashed his teeth and put on a fake smile, “Then I must thank…big sister!”

“Good!” Feature waved her hand, “Old Black, then I’ll have to trouble you with solving this problem.”

Black Astral bowed and nodded, “Yes, miss!”

“Wait a moment!” Blue Wave suddenly said. “I said before that I would escort Miss Feature and ensure your safety. Now that a problem has arisen, how can I hide behind you?”

He looked at the mist, a cold intent in his eyes. “Is this the Red-eye Demon Clan that can control demon beasts? Hoho, since we’ve met this trash here, we might as well kill them all off to prevent a calamity in the abyss!”

Feature hesitated. “Would this trouble you too much? After all, these red-eye demons aren’t good to provoke.”

It was true that they weren’t good to provoke, but the more difficult it was the more he could display his strength and restore his damaged image.

Blue Wave laughed out loud. “Miss Feature, please don’t worry. The strength of my guards is more than what they’ve shown so far. A mere red-eye demon isn’t enough to cause me trouble.”

He turned around and looked over, “Guard Leader Black Armor, please take action and capture that woman who is trying to harm Miss Feature. I want her to kneel in front of the young lady and beg for mercy!”

Black Armor could sense Blue Wave’s unwillingness to back down. There were some fluctuations in his eyes before he fell silent.

“Yes, sir!”

He stood up, raising the spear in his hands. Then, he shot forward, howling into the mist like a great bird.

Slaves were nothing but ants in front of their master. They had no will of their own. Even if they were ordered to walk into the endless abyss, they wouldn’t hesitate or turn back.

City Lord, if I die here today, don’t blame me for not protecting the young master.

Black Armor used his full strength!

Bang –

A fierce explosion sounded out in the mist. It violently rolled about, like a twisted and grinning monster.

Black Armor’s strength was indeed greater than what he had revealed before.

He rushed into the mist alone to fight with the enemy. One could hear the howls of enemies before they died.

Blue Wave smiled. “Miss Feature, please rest assured. My guard leader’s strength is considerable. He will inevitably…”

Before he finished speaking, a figure was struck flying out of the mist.

The figure smashed through dozens of great trees before falling to the ground in a bloody mess. Blood gushed out from his mouth and nose and his eyes were dark and vacant.

This was Black Armor who had just rushed into the mist. He had gone in with vigor and left in distress. Now, it seemed he didn’t have much longer to live.

Blue Wave’s smile stiffened. He looked towards the mist, revealing fear for the first time.

He certainly knew how terrifying and violent the Red-eye Demon Clan was. But because the demon seed bloodlines of these degenerate demons had gone out of control, the Demon General realm was basically the limit of their strength.

If they grew any stronger, the only result was that the amount of wild strength in their bodies would tear them to shreds.

This was why Blue Wave appeared so calm and composed in front of Feature.

It was because Black Armor’s strength was enough to be a worthy opponent for any Demon General, even if it was the cruel and savage Red-eye Demon Clan.

But a problem had appeared. Black Armor had been viciously killing all of his enemies just moments ago, yet a single strike had left him on the verge of death.

There was only one possible explanation for this. The red-eye demons had a powerhouse in their ranks, and this powerhouse’s strength was horrifying, far past the limits of Black Armor.

With just one strike this enemy had grievously wounded him. And the only one who was qualified to do this was…a Demon Commander!

As this thought appeared, Blue Wave’s heart began to race. A cold chill rose within him, spreading to his limbs and almost leaving him frozen.

His brother Blue Sea, who had just become the Lord of Adversity Peak City, was one such Demon Commander. So Blue Wave was well aware of how strong a Demon Commander was.

In front of a Demon Commander, unless a Demon General had a heaven-defying demon seed bloodline, it was nearly impossible to jump ranks to fight.

Otherwise no matter how many more of them there were, it was just like facing dogs and cats. A Demon Commander could easily kill a Demon General.

At this moment, Blue Wave suddenly felt regret. If he had listened to Black Armor, he might have been able to escape.

But now, saying anything else was meaningless.

He had to figure out a way to survive…

Fighting was clearly not a good idea. If so, he could only work out how to survive from another angle.

Calm down…I must calm down!

It had to be acknowledged that while Blue Wave was overly arrogant, his basic qualities were still good. Of course, the ‘good’ here was only relatively speaking. For instance, he had no idea that there were some people beside him who were watching the play unfold.

Blue Wave, who had fallen into a suddenly critical ‘life or death’ state of mind, took a deep breath. He loudly said, “My brother is the current Lord of Adversity Peak City, Blue Sea, and he has a Demon Commander level of strength! And there should be no need for me to explain what background Adversity Peak City has. If we die here today, my brother will not hesitate to pay any price to find my killer and take revenge for me!

“So I am willing to take responsibility for today’s conflict as well as any previous conflicts and pay the corresponding price. I hope you can spare us and allow us to live. To you and I, this is the best choice.”

The mist suddenly dissipated. It didn’t disappear, but quickly converged into one point, revealing what was hidden below.

A ferocious beast that stood nearly a hundred feet tall, with eyes so red they seemed dyed with blood, appeared in front of everyone. All of that mist was being sucked into its nose and mouth.

Black scales shined with the luster of iron and stone. A red-eye demon sat on top of it, imperiously looking down at everyone below.

A ball of light floated beside the giant beast. Within the faint white halo of light, Spring Breeze 13th Madame sat down cross-legged.

Beyond that, there were red-eye demons with fierce and bloodthirsty expressions. Roughly glancing around, there were at least a hundred of them.

Each of the red-eye demons had a demon beast serving them. The demon beasts constantly emitted growling roars.

At this moment, space seemed to freeze. It was like a giant invisible mountain pressed down on Blue Wave’s chest, making it impossible for him to breathe.

There were over a hundred red-eye demons…

This strength was horrifying. It was simply unimaginable.

According to what he knew, red-eye demons were born because they had swallowed too many different demon seed bloodlines. Eventually, they were unable to control their strength and lost control. The power of their bloodlines stormed through their bodies, affecting their intelligence, and causing them to degenerate into monsters that only knew killing and destruction.

So before degenerating to a red-eye demon, they had swallowed at least ten other demons.

This meant that the strength they possessed far surpassed that of ordinary demons. They could even be compared to the Demon General rank.

Of course, this wasn’t an exact comparison. But looking at their auras, these 100 blood-eye demons each had a strength equivalent to half a Demon General.

In the past when Great Deer City suffered the onslaught of the beast tide and nearly fell, the City Lord Mansion, Thousand Eye Temple, Merry Forest, and Three Lives Pavilion had joined forces to resist it. Even then, they only managed to gather 50-60 Demon Generals.

In terms of high-level combat power, this was a degree of strength comparable to that possessed by a big city.

But now, the most shocking and frightening thing was the giant beast in front and the red-eye demon sitting on top of its head.

Red-eye demons suffered a backlash from their bloodline and their minds were affected. While they still maintain the appearance of the demon race, they were actually not much different from demon beasts.

They were both controlled by their bloodlines, falling into a state where they only wished to devour demon seed bloodlines. Their personalities became violent and endlessly savage, and they retained only a small part of their sanity.

But while this red-eye demon’s eyes flashed with cruelty from time to time, the depths of his eyes remained cold and quiet.

A horrifying aura revolved around him like a black hole, continuously releasing and covering everything within its scope of destruction.

As for the giant beast it rode, it produced the sounds of wind and thunder just by breathing. The rumbling was deep and thick like a drum, suppressing the heart.

Blue Wave’s forehead was immediately covered in a cold sweat. His composed face instantly turned paper white.

Demon Commander!

It wasn’t just one Demon Commander level red-eye demon, but also a Demon Commander level demon beast. And if a Demon Commander level demon beast could still maintain its sanity, it was obviously because it had swallowed the brains of countless demons.

This was bound to be because the red-eye demon cultivated it, commanding it to eat brains to increase its strength.

There was no doubt he was successful!

If two Demon Commanders superimposed their strength together, the destructive effect they produced would explode exponentially.

The only reason Blue Wave had been able to remain calm was that his brother had given him a life-saving card before he left.

With this card in hand, even if he faced a Demon Commander he was confident he could escape.

But now, what he faced were two Demon Commanders…the explosive strength that one plus one could send out was far greater than two.

The card would lose its effect!

Damn it…

When people had someone they could depend on, they could often put on a relaxed and carefree demeanor. If negotiations broke down, at worst they could clear off their buttocks and run away.

They would just take it as their previous efforts having been in vain. As long as that person survived, nothing else was a problem.

But if it was a situation where their life and death was no longer in their control and whatever they depended on no longer worked, it was much more difficult to remain calm.

Blue Wave bit his tongue, and only then did he stop himself from shaking. His mind raced and there was only one question circulating there – how he could survive!
