Chapter 772 - How Will It Taste? (1/2)

”What in god's name is going on? How is he doing that?” Qi Man mumbled in a voice of disbelief as he watched Yuan throw the demon left and right like some kind of stress toy.

”Do you think he still needs our help?” Qi Huan asked in a sarcastic tone.

Suddenly—

”AAAAAHHHHHHHHHH!”

The demon released a deafening roar that shook the world.

”How dare a puny human play with me?! I will make you pay! I WILL MAKE YOU PAY!”

The demon's body began growing larger and larger until it was nearly twice its original size, becoming a mini giant.

Yuan had seen this kind of transformation before from the demon at the Jaded Garden, so he knew that he should stop playing around and actually take care of the demon once and for all before he makes a mistake and gets himself and everyone killed.

The demon released another loud roar before summoning two large greatswords with its own blood and wielding it.

It then leaped at Yuan with intense bloodlust radiating from its body.

However, before it could even begin falling back down, the demon felt something pierce its face.

It wasn't painful, but its vision blacked out for a second, and when its vision recovered after the gaping hole in its face was healed, the demon could see that Yuan had suddenly appeared in front of it.

”In the end, you weren't anything too special besides being a decent punching bag.” Yuan said to the demon right before extending his empty hand towards the demon's chest and grabbing the red crystal embedded within, tearing it right out of its body.

The demon fell directly to the ground afterward, but it wasn't dead yet.

It slowly got back to its feet and looked at Yuan with a puzzled face.

”What the fuck are you doing? Did you really think that by removing my crystal that it'd kill me?” The demon asked Yuan.

”You can beat me up as much as you want, but you won't kill me, and you will eventually run out of spiritual energy. You can try to seal me, but that also will only prolong your life by a little longer. You don't have the capabilities to kill me—”

The demon suddenly halted its speech when it realized that its crystal was not returning to its body.

Normally, when their crystal is removed, it would return to their body just like the rest of their body, hence the demon's confusion at this moment.

”You said that you wouldn't die even if I destroyed this crystal, right? Let's test that theory.” Yuan showed the demon his hand, where its crystal was resting.

The demon immediately began sweating profusely.

The reason the demon said that it wouldn't die even if Yuan destroyed the crystal was simply because it didn't think that Yuan had the capabilities to truly destroy the crystal since it would simply recover just like the rest of its body.

”T-That's not possible! Y-You! Who are you?!” The demon roared at Yuan.

”You don't recognize me? I thought all demons would recognize my face.” Yuan raised his eyebrows.

”Why the fuck would I recognize a nobody like—” The demon suddenly halted mid-sentence again, and it narrowed its eyes to focus on Yuan's face.
