Chapter 481: The Devil is Coming

Liang Yu left the dragon’s head, hovering in mid-air, arriving at the same height as Shangguan Ye.

Although Shangguan Ye was somewhat wary of the armored person in front of him, most of his attention was currently on the Light Emperor War Dragon.

He was also curious about how strong such a powerful exotic beast could be and to what extent it could reach.

The Light Emperor War Dragon met the monster that showed greed towards it.

The monster bared its fangs and claws, pouncing on the Light Emperor War Dragon, spewing a black energy beam from its mouth towards the Light Emperor War Dragon’s eyes.

The Light Emperor War Dragon was fearless, its body shining with dazzling light, and as the black beam approached, it instantly nullified the black beam with an even more powerful light arrow.

Immediately after, it swiped its Dragon Claw, bringing forth a fierce gust of wind, and directly clawed at the monster.

The monster dodged the attack by flashing sideways, while several blood-red hands extended from behind it, slashing towards the War Dragon’s abdomen.

The strange thing happened earlier: the monster clearly dodged the Light Emperor War Dragon’s Dragon Claw attack, but as it dodged the Dragon Claw and prepared to counterattack, five claw marks suddenly appeared on its body, directly sending it flying backward.

After flying back more than ten meters, the monster stopped with the help of the blood-red hands behind it, but it was now extremely furious, roaring at the Light Emperor War Dragon.

The five claw marks on its chest glowed with specks of golden light, and at some unknown point, golden flames had adhered to the wounds, constantly burning the monster’s flesh.

The next moment, the monster used flesh regeneration to cover the wounds, and blood-red tentacles continuously grew from other parts of its body, wrapping around the wounds like bandages.

The Light Emperor War Dragon had its own pride; it disdained to attack while the opponent was recovering, and its eyes held contempt for the opponent, as if the opponent was completely unworthy of fighting it.

In fact, that was indeed the case; after the opponent dealt with the injuries on its chest, it was just about to continue attacking the Light Emperor War Dragon.

Unexpectedly, the tentacles that had covered its chest like bandages had now broken off and fallen onto the ground beneath the Cultivation Field, and the five claw marks reappeared.

Moreover, the flames at this time were no longer just specks; the burning flames had already covered the claw marks, continuously causing damage to the monster.

Upon seeing this scene, City Lord Shangguan Ye’s pupils suddenly constricted, and he pondered in his heart how much chance of winning he would have if he fought the opponent.

He also kept recalling that claw strike from earlier; could he have dodged it?

The monster nearby cried out in pain from the scorching golden flames, letting out a roar, and its aura became even more violent.

Completely disregarding the injuries on its body, it attacked again, and black flames actually erupted around its body, enveloping it. The five golden flames in front of it were particularly striking, and it crashed into the Light Emperor War Dragon like a black meteor.

In response, the Light Emperor War Dragon opened its mouth, and golden energy began to gather within it. The Dragon Breath condensed to its extreme, and a thick golden light pillar shot out, colliding head-on with the monster wrapped in black flames.

For a moment, intense light shone, and the energy impact formed visible airwaves around them, distorting the surrounding air.

Liang Yu hovered to the side, watching the battle between the two as if nothing was happening, with no intention of intervening.

The golden light pillar and the black flames collided, making crackling sounds.

Although the monster was in excruciating pain from the scorching golden flames, its attack was still fierce. Under its continuous output, the black flames actually counteracted the Dragon Breath, and there was even a slight indication that they were beginning to erode the golden light pillar.

However, the Light Emperor War Dragon increased the output of its Dragon Breath, and in a short instant, it shattered the black flames and surged towards the monster.

The next moment, the monster, struck by the powerful Dragon Breath, was instantly engulfed by golden light, letting out a tragic howl.

Its body twisted and deformed under the impact of the Dragon Breath, and the black flames were completely extinguished.

But then an unexpected event still occurred: just as it was about to be completely swallowed by the Dragon Breath, a more powerful black energy suddenly erupted from its body, forcibly resisting the Dragon Breath for a moment.

Just then, the blood-red hands behind it danced wildly, and a rune appeared from the void. The blood-red hands grabbed the appearing rune and integrated it into its body.

Its body rapidly expanded, its power seemingly rising to another level, and it actually forcibly broke free from the Dragon Breath’s restraint.

However, this also came at a heavy price, as its injuries became more severe, and it was covered in blood.

Seeing this, a hint of disdain flashed in the Light Emperor War Dragon’s eyes, and it swung its Dragon Claw again, grabbing towards the monster with endless pressure.

However, this time, the Light Emperor War Dragon’s Dragon Claw was blocked by a barrier before it even touched the monster.

Just as Shangguan Ye and Liang Yu were surprised, the black bead left by Bai Hong had already controlled the soldier guarding it in a box to come before the monster.

The bead flew out of the box and integrated into the monster’s body. After the monster absorbed the bead, its damaged body was instantly repaired and began to evolve, moving one step closer to a human form.

Its aura became increasingly terrifying, with dense black mist swirling around it, as if it were a demon from the abyss.

The Light Emperor War Dragon even felt a threat from the opponent, and its entire body glowed brightly, preparing to launch another attack.

Before it could act, Liang Yu stopped it.

Liang Yu understood that this was a tough nut to crack, so he decided to leave it for City Lord Shangguan to handle.

Moreover, he genuinely felt a familiar aura from the opponent.

He then made a gesture of invitation towards City Lord Shangguan Ye.

However, Liang Yu wanted them both to fight, but he did not know that the opponent had come specifically for him.

The first words from the monster that had fused with the bead were:

“I found you, Golden Armored Demon God!!!”

The opponent’s words instantly stunned both of them.

Shangguan Ye was shocked by the final phrase “Demon God”; he never would have imagined that the person in front of him was actually a Demon God who had escaped from the abyss.

Liang Yu, on the other hand, was puzzled; he hadn’t done anything, so why was the opponent fixated on him?

The owner of the voice and gaze was precisely the one he had threatened in the Gods and Demons Abyss at that time.

He truly hadn’t expected the opponent to be so petty; he had only threatened him with a single sentence, and he hadn’t done anything else.

This old geezer was actually so shameless, escaping from the Gods and Demons Abyss, and specifically coming for him.

No!

Liang Yu suddenly realized a problem: the opponent’s true body should still be imprisoned in the Gods and Demons Abyss; it was impossible for its true self to descend here. This was at most a consciousness or a projection, after all, it even needed to use the body of the monster in front of him.

Thinking that the bead was related to Bai Hong, Liang Yu then called out to him.
