Chapter 2292: Shambles

“Big brother Zu really is handsome...” On the flying ship, Ji Xiaoxi’s little face turned red and her eyes practically shone.

Xie Daoyun’s eyes were also shining brilliantly. Her rational mind always told her to quickly separate herself from big brother Zu, but whenever she saw him, the bit of willpower she painstakingly managed to gather would just as easily scatter.

When she saw the reaction of the two young ladies and the female Demon race warriors in the distance, Jiang Luofu thought, No wonder Zu An has so many lovers.

If you’re that handsome, forget about those young ladies, even I...

The women on the ship reacted dramatically enough, but Yun Yuqing and Suolun Shi were so excited that it was as if every pore on their entire body opened. Yun Yuqing was a bit more compose, as she had just seen him fight in the capital. But Suolun Shi’s eyes were shining as she looked at Zu An. Then, she looked away guiltily. She wanted to keep looking at him, but was too embarrassed to stare too much.

Zu An raised his hand, then clenched it into a fist. All of the techniques in the sky seemed to be crushed into a rainbow colored sphere of light by a vast invisible hand.

The cultivators here were all shocked by the sight. After all, it would have been one thing if he managed to do that to physical arrows and spears, but these were magical attacks! And yet all of them were crushed as if they had physical form.

On top of that, they could tell that power inside of the ball of light was flickering intensely. It was clearly already on the verge of going berserk, as if it would explode at a moment’s notice. After all, these were attacks from several armies' worth of cultivators, so they were enough to destroy an entire opposing force. And yet, all of them were now being crushed into such a small sphere. It was easy to imagine just how great their explosive power would be! It was likely that half of the people here would end up losing their lives.

Almost everyone reflexively stepped back. They all wanted to keep some distance away from the terrifying ball of power.

This guy doesn’t even care about his life anymore, all for the sake of chasing after women!

Just go to hell!

The three clan masters watched expectantly, hoping to see a brilliant explosion of fireworks.

But the next second, everyone’s eyes widened in disbelief. The terrifying explosion didn’t happen. With a gentle clench of Zu An’s hand, the ball of energy that was on the brink of exploding just... shattered.

Right, it just shattered, in a way that was really difficult to describe with words. It was as if all of the power was completely destroyed in an instant. That didn’t match the principles of the techniques these cultivators had spent their entire lives learning at all! Just how was Zu An doing this?

Just then, Zu An swept out his sleeves, and a powerful gust of wind immediately appeared. The soldiers of the three Demon race clans could no longer stand steadily, and were tossed to and fro. The military formations they had tried to maintain were soon all gone.

A calm voice echoed in the skies above. “I will let bygones be bygones if you end this here. If you remain stubborn, you cannot blame me for being ruthless.”

When they heard what he said, many soldiers threw the weapons in their hands away. With them taking the lead, the sounds of weapons falling quickly rang out across the battlefield. Even many of the three clan masters’ personal troops dropped their weapons.

Are you kidding me right now? Forget about the fact that he's the Fiend races' regent, with the terrifying strength he just displayed, isn’t going against him just courting death?

Cheers erupted from Suolun City when they saw this scene. In contrast, the three clan masters’ eyelids twitched.

The Yun Clan Master stared at Zu An, his eyes full of fear. He said to his two companions, “Brother Rong, Brother Wu, if we work together and use all of our trump cards, we might not lose to him.” 

But there was still no response even after a second had passed. He turned around and saw that the Rong and Wu clan masters were already far away from him. They were already surrounding him next to Zu An.

The Rong clan master said with an embarrassed smile, “Old Yun, I feel that your actions are a bit too extreme.”

The Wu clan master also said in agreement, “That’s right, he is the Fiend races' regent. How can we treat the regent with disrespect?”

The Yun clan master was speechless.

You two shameless opportunists!

“In that case, I hope that the regent won’t mind any offenses I have committed previously too much.” The Yun Clan Master's serious expression gave way to an obsequious smile. He walked up to Zu An and continued, “With your relationship with Yuqing, we are all one family, right? Hahaha.”

The Rong and Wu Clan Masters were stunned.

Does this guy have any sense of shame? He was criticizing us just a moment ago! He really is someone special!

Yun Yuqing’s beautiful brows furrowed slightly. Her Second Uncle’s behavior that lacked all integrity really was humiliating.

Just then, something strange happened. As the Yun Clan Master approached Zu An, he suddenly launched palm strikes forward. In that instant, his body suddenly changed, becoming covered in black scales. Countless bony spurs emerged along his back, forehead, and elbows.

Following his attack, an Azure Dragon projection appeared in the sky. It roared and charged at Zu An. Compared to the giant dragon, Zu An looked extremely small and weak. The pressure that filled the world in that instant filled all of the soldiers and clan masters with horror. It was as if the Fiend Emperor had come back to life! Since when did this guy suddenly have such powerful cultivation?

“Big brother Zu!” Ji Xiaoxi screamed.

Jiang Luofu was quite experienced; for some time, she had already been prepared to help Zu An at a moment’s notice. She had already prepared her skills and taken out her magic weapons. A pair of scales that represented the fairness of the law appeared in the sky, and smashed straight into the Azure Dragon projection.

The Azure Dragon staggered from the force. However, it released a roar and quickly smashed the scales away.

Xie Daoyun acted at the same time, but the talismans she used were a bit slower. Fortunately, she had Jiang Luofu to help her buy a bit of time.

Suddenly, celestial troops appeared in the sky. The massive figures grabbed the Azure Dragon projection and held it in place. The Azure Dragon struggled frantically, but just then, a giant golden-armored spirit swung an axe, chopping the dragon into several segments.

It was the Record of Emperor’s Suppression!

Xie Daoyun had studied the talisman carefully. Thanks to the pointers she'd received from Zu An and her teacher from time to time, she was already able to use about thirty percent of the talisman’s power.

As the Azure Dragon projection disappeared, the Yun Clan Master was seriously injured. He vomited blood and fell from the sky. His heart was in shambles. He'd thought that the strength he had accumulated would be able to hurt Zu An, but the latter hadn't even lifted a finger, only relying on the women around him to defeat him.

It wasn’t just him, though. The women also felt defeated.

Suolun Shi in particular was thinking that the women around big brother Zu were not only pretty, they were all so formidable. Why would he like an ugly duckling like her?

If the Demon race’s people heard what she was thinking, many people would no doubt start shouting in protest. After all, Princess Suolun had always been known for her beauty and intelligence. She was the target of countless demon men’s dreams. The Suolun clan had been able to fend off the attacks of the three other clans largely because they were fighting for her sake. Who could have imagined that the goddess of their dreams would actually feel so inferior in front of another man?

Yun Yuqing gave Xie Daoyun a few looks.

Along the way, she looked delicate and bookish, and she didn’t seem to be much of a threat. But she was actually this strong?

Ji Xiaoxi was the one who felt the most dispirited.

Big brother Zu has so many pretty and amazing big sisters. They’re not like me, someone who can’t even help at all.

She'd just discovered that even though it hadn’t been many years since she and big brother Zu separated, he had already grown so fast that she couldn't even see his back anymore.

Sigh, I miss the time when big brother Zu and I were gathering medicine in the mountains together.

...

Even though Zu An’s cultivation was powerful, there was no way he could sense what every single woman was thinking. He quickly moved over to the Yun Clan Master’s side. He looked at the scales and bony outgrowths on the latter's back and asked, “Was this power given to you by the Demon Deity you spoke of?”

The Yun Clan Master coughed out a mouthful of blood. He looked away and said, “History is written by the victors. I have nothing to say to you.”

“Where's that True Demon emissary you were talking about? Why don’t I see him?” Zu An asked the question he wanted to know the answer to the most. He had searched around the battlefield earlier but didn’t see anything that resembled this True Demon.
