Chapter 659 - Female Skeletons (1/2)
Algernon Divine Branch's experts possessed great power. Just Borgans alone was incredibly powerful. Dio had plotted against Yang Ling on the sly many times, and Yang Ling wanted to kill him without leaving any traces so that he wouldn't bring trouble upon himself. Yang Ling pondered over this for a moment before coming up with an idea. He didn't advance. Instead, he retreated and left quietly with the crowd. He left the main hall without leaving behind a trail.
After they walked into a remote corner, the Corpse Wizard King couldn't bear stating his doubts. Instead, he questioned Yang Ling in a low voice, ”Lord, don't you plan to explore the Demon Hall in front of the Departed Spirit Road?”
”We will obviously go to the Demon Hall, but we still must take care of a very important matter before crossing the Departed Spirit Road.” Yang Ling summoned a group of Vampire Bats and asked them to disperse and scout the situation in the vicinity before saying coldly, ”Most of Algernon Divine Branch's experts have already entered the Demon Hall, and Dio only has a few Divine Duty Experts left with him. This a good opportunity, so how can we let it slip by?”
”That's right,” the war-like Giant Ape King said. ”Let's kill that hateful guy, take out his Godhead, and crush his head with a rod.” He waved his large rod strongly. He had almost been killed by Dio several times, and he had a bellyful of anger because of it.
”Lord, Dio is in the main hall, so why did we go out?” the Corpse Wizard King said. He couldn't understand this and was confused.
”Rodriguez, we must kill Dio,” Yang Ling said. ”But if we leave any traces or if the numerous wanderers in the vicinity learn that it was us who killed him, it won't be good for us.” He stopped for a moment before saying, ”The Demon Palace doesn't have anything other than a large number of flying demons. If a group of flying demons rush into the main hall, everyone will descend into panic, and we'll get an opportunity to strike.”
”Hehehe, lord. Isn't this too despicable?” the Corpse Wizard King laughed. He suddenly saw the light and understood Yang Ling's intentions.
A large number of wanderers assembled in the main hall, and the flying demons had rushed over there several times, but to no avail. They could only give up on attacking and intercepting the crowd, which was why many people lowered their guard. If a large group of flying demons suddenly appeared in the main hall, most people would be surprised and would descend into chaos. Yang Ling and his group could take advantage of the chaos to ambush Dio and kill him without leaving any traces.
The flying demons weren't able to rush into the main hall, which held many experts, but there were still innumerable flying demons outside intercepting lone wanderers. Yang Ling and his companions managed to quickly find the trails of a group of flying demons thanks to the Vampire Bats' scouting. They restrained their auras and followed the demons quietly.
This was a small team of demons. It had a dozen or more demons with forks, including the team leader. They were roaring loudly and fighting over several wanderers' corpses. They quickly tore open the corpses' chests and devoured their Godheads and internal organs. Their mouths were drenched with blood, and it seemed like they had just ambushed several pitiful wanderers.
”Hahaha, there is so much fresh blood. We finally get to taste a delicacy today,” a demon said.
”Leader, there are so many humans in the hall. If we storm it, won't we get to eat as much as we want?”
”Fool!” the demon leader said. ”There are too many humans in the hall, and even a large team won't be able to storm it. Rushing there isn't any different than seeking death.”
...
The numerous flying demons were quite excited, and they devoured the delicacy in their hands as they discussed this spiritedly. They were unaware that danger closed in on them. The mantis stalked the cicada, unaware of the oriole behind it!
”Binding Space!” Yang Ling sneaked over to the numerous flying demons and attacked without the least bit of hesitation. He cast the Binding Space Wizard Spell before pulling out the sharp Battle Soul Blade on his back. He swiftly attacked the demon leader. Meanwhile, the Corpse Wizard King, Ophelia, and others quickly cast the Demon God Battle Formation and attacked quickly.
The Corpse Wizard King, who followed Yang Ling, closely attacked ahead of the others and quickly fused his Soul Energy with the crowd. He released sharp Death Ripples, while the Blood Angel Ophelia, the Giant Ape King, and others pounced at the enemies and carried out ferocious attacks.
Buzz!
A soft cry echoed out of the narrow side road, and it was accompanied by an intense murderous aura.
The demon leader's mouth was drenched with blood as he devoured a heart. Yang Ling's Battle Soul Blade stabbed the demon's chest. He thrust the blade into the demon's chest strongly before pulling it out and cutting him again. The Demon Leader sustained serious injuries, and blood gushed out of his chest.
As for the demons in the vicinity, they were startled. They were about to rush to the rescue, but the Corpse Wizard King's Death Ripples reached them, and they instantly got a splitting headache. Soon after, they suffered the ferocious close-quarter attacks of Ophelia and the Giant Ape King, and collapsed.
The dozen demons were caught off guard, and their power and speed were greatly weakened by Yang Ling's Binding Space Spell. Their souls also suffered heavy damage due to the Corpse Wizard King's Death Ripples. They weren't a match for Ophelia, the Giant Ape King, and others, who cast the Demon God Battle Formation.
