Having the genes of a demon king, I never intended to be a kept man.

Under the scorching flames, all moisture within the area evaporated, and the air twisted like a furnace.

Jiang Xiaoming wanted to use his half-Zhu Yan-transformed physical strength to forcibly break free from Zhu Yu's fiery prison.

At this moment, Wu Yikun and Zhiling also put their hands together and unleashed their respective abilities.

"Soul Skill - White Tail Painting World!"

"Soul skill - virtual sound wave!"

The two people's abilities added another layer of debuff to him.

Jiang Xiaoming felt his body become heavier, his head was dizzy, he was short of breath and his ears were ringing, and one knee fell heavily to the ground.

Zhu Yu formed hand seals again, intending to deliver another blow and completely subdue Zhu Yan.

Jiang Xiaoming struggled to lift his head, his eyes contorted with rage, and just as he was about to be defeated, he unleashed a terrifying burst of killing power!

"Roar!!!"

Jiang Xiaoming roared and tore open the fire curtain of the Fire Prison with his bare hands!

Zhu Yu's pupils contracted.

What......

"Roar—!!!!"

Jiang Xiaoming broke through the curtain of fire, leaped high into the air, and pounced on her!

Just then, a black sword aura swept across! Jiang Xiaoming's pupils shrank, and he was forced back by the sword aura, staggering back more than ten meters.

Zhu Yu was stunned for a moment, then turned her head and saw Xing Minglong slowly landing in front of her, carrying the demonic sword.

"Thank you... thank you." Zhu Yu breathed a sigh of relief.

"The Demonic Sword Ghost Dragon?" As an ancient ferocious beast, Zhu Yan immediately sensed the demonic aura of the Ghost Dragon.

Xingminglong remained expressionless and did not respond. He swung the Ghost Dragon Demon Sword, unleashing another burst of demonic sword energy that pierced the air!

Jiang Xiaoming rushed forward to confront the demonic sword energy head-on. However, his originally fearless and resilient body was instead cleaved away by the demonic sword energy, crashing through three walls before finally stopping.

Star Dragon continued its pursuit, flapping its dragon wings and sprinting at incredible speed to reach Zhu Yan.

Jiang Xiaoming had just gotten up from the ground when he saw the demonic sword slashing down at him. He grunted and quickly caught the sword with both hands.

The white cloth covering the demonic sword finally shattered and vaporized under the clash of the two people's demonic and malevolent energies, revealing the true form of the demonic sword, Ghost Dragon. Dark red demonic patterns emanated a terrifying ancient aura on the surface of the sword.

The roar of the ghost dragon continuously emanated from the sword. Zhu Yan, enveloped in the demonic energy of the demonic sword, seemed to see the ghost dragon emerging from the sword and gradually devouring his malevolent aura...

"boom--!"

With a whooshing sound as demonic energy tore through the air, the Star Dragon unleashed another fierce slash.

This time, Jiang Xiaoming was completely unable to withstand it. His murderous aura suddenly dissipated, and he was sent flying backward, crashing to the ground and tumbling several times as he was thrown about by the sword energy.

Xingminglong, wielding his demonic sword, was about to go up and finish him off.

However, at that moment, a figure blocked his way.

It is Night Song!

"when!"

The sound of metal clashing was deafening.

Yege held a samurai sword in one hand, the very same Demon Slayer Blade he had obtained from Muramasa, Muraki's younger brother, and used it to parry the demonic sword's slash.

Night Song and Star Dragon locked eyes.

Ye Ge thought to herself, 'It feels so strange to be looking at myself like that...'

'Like looking in a mirror...'

The greatsword and the katana collided and rubbed together, producing a slight hum, and remained locked in a stalemate for several seconds.

"Ding!"

In the end, both Night Song and Star Dragon chose to retreat.

Star Dragon flapped its Demon Dragon Wings and retreated back to Zhu Yu and the others.

Ye Ge took a few steps back, and Gao Shenxue, Xia Xiyao, Nangong Qiuyue and others also emerged from the ruins of the tavern.

"Night Song?"

Zhu Yu was surprised to see Ye Ge and the others here.

This place is far from the territory of the Qin Empire, so there is no possibility that it was just a coincidence that I passed by.

So, they're also after Zhu Yan?

"Hello, what a coincidence," Ye Ge said with a leisurely smile. "I didn't expect to run into someone from the company here."

Zhiling saw Ye Ge and paused, then asked, "Is that Ye Ge?"

He then murmured, "So handsome... even more handsome than Lord Star Dragon..."

Wu Yikun: "......"

"Xiao Ye, Xue'er." Xia Xiyao tugged at their clothes, like a little girl tattles on her parents, and whispered, "That long-haired man is the one I fought in the old city last time! He's a genetically modified human who received Qiongqi cells!"

Ye Ge and Gao Shenxue both looked at Su You upon hearing this.

Su You smiled: "I didn't expect to be so lucky today. Not only did we find Zhu Yan's spirit, but now we've even found the descendants of the Chaos Clan."

He licked his lips, his eyes gleaming with amusement: "In this remote borderland, I can finally act without restraint. This time, I won't be as cowardly as last time."

"So you're the one who bullied Xiyao last time." Gao Shenxue said expressionlessly.

Those dark eyes, which were as calm as a still pond, now revealed an invisible, terrifying, and chilling killing intent.

Su You, however, remained oblivious to the murderous intent emanating from the girl, her sneer still lingering between her teeth: "So what if I am, you..."

"Snapped!"

Before he could finish speaking, the girl clasped her hands together, unleashed her soul power, and emitted a dazzling blue light from her clasped palms. Suddenly, a six-layered nested mechanical gear array appeared on the ground within a radius of a hundred meters.

"Buzzing..."

"Buzzing...!!"

The ground shook violently!

It was like an 8.0 magnitude earthquake!

The sound of metal scraping together was like the roar of an ancient beast awakening!

Zhu Yu, Wu Yikun, Zhiling and the others quickly stood firm and steadied themselves.

Su You's expression also changed.

This girl actually has such strong soul power!

"Boom, boom, boom!!!"

A gigantic war machine, over ten meters tall, rose from the summoning array!

The war machine was completely covered in armor, its dark chrome surface shimmering with a liquid metallic sheen. It was armed with weapons from head to toe: laser cannons for eyes, magic pulse annihilation cannons mounted on its arms, various missiles crammed into its body, and a massive blue flamethrower mounted on its back...

Next, Gao Shenxue took out a mechanical box.

The box was opened, and inside were countless things that looked like technology capsules, neatly arranged.

Gao Shenxue chanted an incantation, and all the capsules inside flew out, opening with a "bang bang bang" sound in the air.

Tens of thousands of small flying robots appeared behind the girl!

These small robots each have two helicopter-like propellers on their heads, hold a pair of submachine guns in each hand, and display the expression panel on their faces: (╰_╯).

Tens of thousands of small flying robots, densely packed together, a huge, dark mass, almost blotting out the sky!

"Ninth-Tier Mechanical Skill - Control of All Machines"

Gao Shenxue's pupils flashed with digital light, and a transparent control panel that only she could see appeared before her eyes. She slowly raised her hand, and her ten fingers manipulated the virtual keyboard in the air.
