Li Yu’s punch had blown up the woman’s chest.

She fell deep into the hillside and could not be more dead.

Then, Li Yu’s figure flashed a few times. Three experts of the Netherworld Demon Sect, who the soldiers saw as powerful as gods and devils, had instantly died.

The last remaining expert with untidy hair and a zombie-like face watched in horror.

Knowing that Li Yu was someone he could not mess with, he immediately attempted to escape.

Run?

Li Yu was so quick that no one could see him coming.

After that, a shrill cry resounded as the fleeing expert of the Netherworld Demon Sect perished on the spot.

“This kid is a freak!” Zhang Zhizhong looked in shock as Li Yu trotted back to Ye Qiu.

For a moment, everyone forgot that they were half a step into the gates of hell not long ago.

The remaining soldiers looked at Li Yu and could not recover from their shock for a moment.

“Senior Brother, why are you here?” Ye Qiu was surprised, but he was more grateful.

“Just here to settle something! Look at you. How are you supposed to enter the battlefield like this? With such meager ability, you’re going to die!” Li Yu pretended to be angry as he scolded Ye Qiu.

“Haha, I’ve embarrassed myself in front of my senior brother!” Ye Qiu was not angry. He knew that although Li Yu said that, he must have secretly followed him because he was worried about him.

Moreover, his objective for this trip was probably to eradicate the Wolf King clan.

I knew it! My senior brother is a great hero who cares deeply about the world.

That day I told him about the war in the north and the people’s suffering. Although he did not say anything then, he still traveled here secretly. He must be planning to attack in secret.

If I hadn’t encountered an ambush and almost lost my life, he wouldn’t have made his appearance easily. He wanted to get rid of evil for the people, yet he did not want anyone to know about it. He’s truly a hero, a true hero worthy of our admiration!

“Alright, if there is nothing else, I shall take my leave!” Li Yu waved his sleeves and prepared to leave.

“Senior brother, aren’t you coming with us?” Ye Qiu hurriedly asked.

“What? Do you want me to be your bodyguard? I told you I’m here to settle some matters, not to save you!” Li Yu said in annoyance.

“Haha, Senior Brother is right. Then your Junior Brother bids you farewell!” Ye Qiu did not say anything else and cupped his hands.

Li Yu waved his hand. With a tap of his foot, his figure disappeared on the spot again.

“Young Master, are you alright?” Zhang Zhizhong rushed forward and asked in concern.

“I’m fine. We are fortunate that my senior brother stepped in to save us just in time. Otherwise, we would have really died here!” Ye Qiu replied with lingering fear.

“Young master, who is this senior brother of yours? To have such power at such a young age is absolutely remarkable!” Zhang Zhizhong was also filled with curiosity.

“Well, he’s a hermit expert. Once I return home after this war, I’ll be preparing to go under their tutelage!” Ye Qiu said with a proud expression, though he didn’t plan on saying much about Li Yu.

He felt that Li Yu must be someone who liked to keep a low profile. Otherwise, it would be impossible that not many have heard of him until now with his monstrous capability.

If not for the appearance of the Heavenly Dao Rankings, he probably would not have known about Li Yu, much less witnessed how he had killed the demon child with a single strike.

It was the same this time. Li Yu had clearly decided to come to the Mo Prefecture to deal with the Wolf King Clan, but he pretended to be indifferent.

Since his senior brother liked to keep a low profile, Ye Qiu could not do anything that displeased him.

Therefore, he did not tell Zhang Zhizhong too much about Li Yu.

Zhang Zhizhong was a clever person. Seeing that Ye Qiu did not elaborate, he did not ask further.

He only replied with an “oh” and continued, “Young Master, let’s continue on our way. Let’s hurry to Tiger Forest Pass and meet up with General Ye. We’ll be safer over there!”

“Okay!” Ye Qiu and the others set off again. There were originally 30 people in the escort party. Now, only six were left.

When they arrived at Tiger Forest Pass, it was already evening.

It was not a big deal as they finally successfully met up with the army that Ye Guxing brought from the Qing Prefecture and set out for the Jade Peak Pass.
