Chapter 387 - Demon Lord (2/2)
With his mind made, the Demon Lord placed the hammer down only for the vendor to inquire calmly, ”Oh, sir, don't you like the quality of the hammer? I have even better quality—”
*Splat*
Annoyed, Demon Lord waved the hammer at an inhumane speed and smashed the vendor's head for this fickle reason, attracting the attention of the citizens due to the sound of the man's head getting crushed and laughed loudly. Without waiting for others to react, a wave of spiritual energy flooded the surroundings and made Nie Li's eyes widen in fright.
The spiritual energy locked onto Ziyun and Nie Li could feel it!
Run!
He wished to scream, but the spiritual energy physically suppressed everyone. It was different from the suppression of Nik's gravity as Nik only focused on pressurizing the physique to make the girls grow strong.
With each step, Demon Lord's smile grew wide as he whispered in satisfaction, yet, the contents of whisper rumbled into deep roars the spread across more than half the entire city.
”Nik Faran, Ye Zong, I am taking you apprentice and daughter— Ye Ziyun— away. If you wish her well-being, then hand the Eight-Armed Devil's external bone and Nik Faran over to me.”
He finally reached the terrified Ziyun as the three girls felt visibly frightened when the Demon Lord glance landed on them. Ryu'er was the same. Beast she might be, old she may be, but a kid she remained.
Grabbing the top of Ziyun's head, the Demon Lord smiled playfully before clutching her hair and taking off to the sky without any wings on his body. Only a single purple ring flashed beneath his foot.
Clasping her palm around the Demon Lord's head, Ziyun screamed loudly, her face twisted in pain as she dangled in the air.
”Z- Ziyun!”
Nie Li finally roared as he broke out of the trance the quickest.
”Hehehe, everything...”
Demon Lord's eyes flashed malevolently, ”Belongs to m— BUGHHHAAAA!”
A crisp punch landed on the youth's face while a crimson blade simultaneously cut his arm over Ziyun's head. The broadsword did not have any arm wielding it while another arm coiled around Ziyun's waist and brought her into a warm embrace.
The punch broke the jaw of the youth, and yet, as he regained his balance in the air, he looked at the dark-haired youth with violet eyes and smiled widely.
A series of rings erupted behind him.
One... three... seven... fourteen... nineteen...
Finally, as the sixty-first spirit ring of the deep crimson color unfurled and bloated the sky, the man looked at Nik and finally whispered darkly. His smile still etched on his face.
”Can't a man enjoy the plain ol' kidnapping? Now I'll have to eradicate the city because of your punch.”
Nik looked at all the spirit rings and secretly gulped.
'Well...' he looked downwards and found Ziyun still crying with her face buried into his chest and trembling like a bunny. Using his gravity, he finally controlled Ziyun and made her descend even if she didn't want to and shouted towards his apprentice, ”Take her back to Ye Zong!”
”Don't ignore me, prey!”
The Demon Lord snarled, and it this moment, Ye Zong finally arrived with a ragged breath as he looked at the sky and instantly paled at the sight of so many spirit rings.
”Oh, sorry,” Nik smiled. He turned in the air and smacked his butt in front of Demon Lord before snickering, ”Butt, catch me if you can!”
Nik laughed wildly. He had made quite some effort to lace his words with suggestions, and it worked.
The Demon Lord snarled and shot towards the Star Dou forest to chase Nik.
Meanwhile, Nik also called his fiercest general.
He really had no confidence in dealing with this person alone, and he wasn't prideful enough to not ask for assistance when truly needed.
This battle may get nasty.
