A rare opportunity

There is no other way. The sect leader has already named him. Even if he is unwilling, Duan Kaishan has no choice but to go ahead!

Of course, Gu Changfeng can use the name of the sect leader to suppress him, so he can naturally use the name of the deputy sect leader to suppress others! What's more, he still has the sect leader's tiger skin to pull? He immediately roared:

"All the elders of the Xianxia Sect, listen up! The Sect Master has ordered us to attack with all our might! Otherwise, we will kill you without mercy! If you dare to slack off again, I will chop off your heads before the Sect Master chops off mine! Come on! Charge!"

The so-called one-level pressure one-level. Gu Changfeng pressured Duan Kaishan, Duan Kaishan pressured the elders of the Xianxia Sect. Then the elders of the Xianxia Sect would naturally pressure the cultivators of the aristocratic families under their command!

Immediately, the orders to attack were issued one after another by the Xianxia Sect elders, each one more severe and urgent than the last!

It's a pity that those cultivators from the sects and families had no one to force them, so they could only bite the bullet and approach Li Yu and the Three Saints of the Demon Clan slowly and cautiously!

Fortunately, due to the fear of these people, Hou Rujing and others had bought some time to recover. Although the time was short, it also allowed Hou Rujing, Mu Chengqi, and Xiao Qinglong to recover most of their internal strength.

Seeing that the other party was gradually approaching and the situation was critical, he did not have time to fully recover and jumped up and came to Li Yu's side.

At this point, the enemy and Li Yu and the others were almost mixed together, and it was impossible to use the spiritual cannon. Otherwise, it would likely cause accidental injuries to Li Yu and the others.

For the Xianxia Sect, it didn't matter how many people came. They were only afraid of Li Yu! Therefore, during the movement, they only had Li Yu in their eyes!

Each of them stared at Li Yu. His every move would make them tremble with fear!

Although the speed of advancement was still very slow, it was still moving forward. Gu Changfeng stopped urging him and, like the other cultivators, closely watched Li Yu's every move!

Honestly, the moment he laid eyes on Li Yu, his attention was captivated. Even with his strength at the peak of the ninth level of Saint Rank, he couldn't fully discern Li Yu's cultivation! He could only tell that Li Yu's cultivation seemed to be at the ninth level of Divine Rank. As for the depth of his cultivation, he couldn't even discern it! Only then did he realize that what Duan Kaishan and the others had said wasn't an exaggeration.

In his opinion, those people's description of Li Yu was not exaggerated, but underestimated him! Thinking about his Sun True Fire, he couldn't help but feel a little palpitated!

Therefore, he changed his mind temporarily. Instead of delaying Li Yu as he had planned, he let the other Saint-level monks rush forward, while he hid behind them and carefully observed Li Yu.

It was certain that relying on these people to kill Li Yu was simply impossible! Ultimately, he would have to do it himself! They were merely his cannon fodder! They were merely tools for him to consume Li Yu, to understand his strength, and to discover his weaknesses!

They were now advancing step by step, and their slow progress was exactly what he wanted. This way, he could observe Li Yu's every move more carefully!

Of course, he could also split a part of his forces to charge into the city wall and slaughter the demons. But he only had eyes for Li Yu!

In his opinion, as long as Li Yu was killed, the remaining people and monsters could be easily destroyed! Therefore, there was no need to rush and concentrate the troops to deal with Li Yu first. After all, those people and monsters could not escape!

Li Yu could tell that the other party had indeed made some preparations to deal with his Sun Fire. Not only were they advancing slowly, but they were also spread out! Each person maintained a sufficient distance between them, which they considered relatively safe.

The so-called safe distance was the product of their painstaking deliberation. It was designed to prevent the spread of the Sun's True Fire within the crowd. After all, the lessons learned from the previous two battles had taught them that if they crowded together, the Sun's True Fire would penetrate their bodies and enter the bodies of others, causing the Sun's True Fire to spread rapidly. This was also the main reason for their heavy losses in the previous two battles!

It's undeniable that their deployment can greatly reduce the spread of the Sun Fire among the crowd. However, it's only a temporary solution, not a permanent one! After all, this deployment can't truly prevent Li Yu from using the Sun Fire!

Li Yu just watched the approaching monks quietly, his face expressionless, neither sad nor happy. Even the arrival of Hou Rujing and others did not cause him to show any emotion.

In his opinion, the other party's preparations would have little impact on him. At most, they would limit the spread of the Sun's True Fire! Not only would it not affect the use of the Sun's True Fire, but it would actually facilitate his selective attacks!

You know, although the indiscriminate attack of the Sun's True Fire is extremely lethal, it also prevents him from attacking the target! Most of those who died under the Sun's True Fire were monks with relatively low strength. Those monks with strong strength would take the opportunity to avoid it!

Li Yu disliked killing, especially those who posed no threat to him! Right now, the greatest threat to him was undoubtedly the Xianxia Sect elders! If they were hiding behind other cultivators, he would be completely helpless. But now, each of them maintained a certain distance from each other, thus exposing the Xianxia Sect elders to him. This gave him the opportunity to attack them! Now he was just waiting! Waiting for them to enter his attack range!

The monks advancing cautiously and slowly were all puzzled. Especially those who had witnessed Li Yu's True Sun Fire. They saw they had already entered the attack range of Li Yu's True Sun Fire, yet Li Yu remained motionless, like an old monk in meditation. They couldn't help but feel suspicious! They suspected Li Yu had some hidden agenda! They suspected Li Yu was deliberately luring them into a trap! Consequently, they became even more cautious and fearful.

As the saying goes, if you stick your head out, you'll get a knife; if you keep your head down, you'll get a knife too! The knife actually coming down isn't scary; the scariest thing is the knife resting on your neck and not falling! That kind of terrified waiting is even more tormenting!

Not only the opponent, but even Hou Rujing and the others found it difficult to understand! If they were allowed to get closer, if they all rushed over at the same time, even if Li Yu used the Sun True Fire in time, he would not be able to stop their advance! Then, they would have to engage in close combat!

Once the fight got into close combat, the power of the Sun's True Fire would be greatly reduced. With the enemy outnumbering us, even with Li Yu's extraordinary abilities, we would still be defeated!

The three demon saints, including Vulture, were so anxious that they scratched their heads and ears! However, they were full of awe for Li Yu and did not dare to urge him.

Just as the opponent was becoming suspicious and the team was extremely anxious, Li Yu's eyebrows suddenly raised on his calm face! At the same time, his hands suddenly waved! Sparks shot out from his waving hands and flew towards the approaching crowd!

Li Yu's movements were incredibly fast! Even Gu Changfeng, who had been watching him the entire time, didn't catch his movements clearly. He only saw the sparks flying all over the sky! The cultivators only woke up from their dreams after the sparks had passed! Especially the Xianxia Sect elders hiding in the back row. They had never expected to become Li Yu's primary target! They had no time to react before they felt an intense burning sensation!

Only Duan Kaishan had been staring at Li Yu's hand intently. When Li Yu waved his hand, he subconsciously dodged to the side, avoiding the spark that shot towards him.

Watching the elders around him fall victim to the attacks, Duan Kaishan couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat, his heart still pounding with fear! He felt like he'd just survived a catastrophe! However, he knew danger could strike at any moment. Therefore, he didn't dare to stop or retreat, only to move sideways. After all, Gu Changfeng had said so before!

Of course, while he was moving, he was also constantly reminding those Xianxia Sect elders whose limbs were hit to quickly cut off their limbs and save their lives. It was precisely because of his reminders that the Xianxia Sect elders who were hit were not completely wiped out!
