Chapter 556 Mysterious Spring
The stench of blood gradually dissipated throughout the cave. The demon god guards were hung on the ancient sacred tree by countless branches and vines carrying the power of the sacred path, unable to move at all.
The Sacred Ancient Tree has already pinned down all four limbs of these Demon God Guards. Even if a Demon Saint were to arrive, he probably wouldn't be able to save them.
"Tell me, what do you want?"
Ye Ru smiled as he looked at Ghostfire and the others, but beneath that smile lay an extremely cold expression.
"I don't know either. The prophetic woman said that what our demon race wants is hidden within the realm of the Star Ape race. So she sent us here, partly to weaken the human race, and partly to obtain that thing."
"The will-o'-the-wisp said weakly, its life force constantly draining away."
"Star Ape King, what do you have that would warrant the demon race sending five demon god guards to retrieve it?"
Ye Ru turned his head and asked in confusion, "The thing that can make five demon god guards come to get it is definitely not a small thing. It may even be something that can enhance the entire demon race."
"Our Star Ape clan has always been a nomadic people. Generally speaking, we just migrate here according to the water and soil. Moreover, I haven't been back to the clan for a long time, so I really don't know what's here."
Star Ape King pondered for a moment, then said in a deep voice.
"Um……"
Ye Ru fell into deep thought, but after a while, he heard the Star Ape King slap his forehead and say:
"We found a spring in a cave near us. If there's anything strange about it, it's probably that spring."
"A spring? We'll go check it out after we deal with these guys."
Nodding, Ye Rudao waved his hand, and countless branches pierced through the demon god guards. In an instant, they turned into a puddle of pus, which was then purified by the Sacred Ancient Tree.
"We've dealt with these demon guards. I wonder how things are going with Qianyu. Let's go check on her. Star Ape King, I'm leaving the Tiger Head Clan here to you."
After Star Ape King nodded, Ye Ru and the others trembled and rushed towards the direction of the mark left by Qian Yu.
He knew that Qianyu alone was no match for that Tiger Fool.
……
In the mountains, a little girl kept fleeing into the distance, glancing back every now and then as if someone was chasing her.
Sure enough, where Qianyu had passed, there was a row of tiger footprints. Then, a tiger suddenly emerged from the bushes and chased after him relentlessly.
"Where do you think you can run to? You've killed so many of my men. If I don't use your head to appease my men today, how can I have the face to be the clan chief?"
The tiger spoke in a human voice, and a murderous aura began to permeate its surroundings.
"Come over here if you dare."
Qianyu stuck out her tongue at him, her light steps almost matching Huchi's speed, which made Huchi's face even more gloomy.
"Roar!"
With a roar, Tiger Maniac's eyes suddenly turned bloodshot, and his speed became even more ferocious. He then pounced on Qianyu.
"Oops!"
As the tiger pounced towards her, Qianyu's face gradually became more serious. She clenched her fists and then threw a punch.
boom!
The tiger's claw collided with Qianyu's small hand, and a powerful force surged into Qianyu's body. She coughed up a mouthful of blood and was sent flying backward.
boom!
After crashing into a large tree, Qianyu fell directly to the ground.
"Let's see where you can run this time!"
Tiger stood up, and all the fur on his body rapidly shrank until it disappeared completely, and he transformed into a human form.
He stared at Qianyu with a cold expression, and his demonic power continued to emanate from his body.
The enemy killed dozens of his men. If he didn't avenge this blood debt, how could he face the Tiger Head Clan?
"Hmph, you're just a little demon who hasn't even entered the demon race yet. When I'm at my peak, I could crush you with a single finger."
Qianyu pouted and said rather arrogantly.
She lived on the Holy Path for many years and possessed immense power, but after leaving the Holy Path, this power seemed to be sealed away, and no matter how hard she tried, she couldn't use it at all.
"But now you are indeed my defeated opponent, so you should just die."
With a murderous glint in his eyes, Tiger Fool clenched his fists and threw a punch.
The fist shadow shot out from his fist, carrying a powerful sound of wind breaking, and slammed towards Qianyu's head.
"Humph."
As Qianyu gazed at the ever-growing fist shadow, a resolute look appeared on her pale face, and she immediately wanted to use her body to block it.
The power of that punch was so terrifying that if it landed on Qianyu, it would probably pierce a large hole in his body instantly.
"Go to hell. I'll take care of the rest of them one by one."
However, before Hu Chi's smile could fully unfold, a dark figure appeared directly in front of Qian Yu's body. Then, with a muffled thud, the figure gradually disappeared and finally turned into nothingness.
This scene stunned both of them. Tiger Fool's gaze darkened as he looked around and coldly shouted:
"who!"
"Hmph, the dignified patriarch of the Tiger Head Clan actually bullies a child. He's truly shameless."
A mocking voice rang out, followed by the sound of wind breaking through the air, finally landing in front of Qianyu.
"Qianyu, are you alright? We're late."
Ye Ru turned his head and asked Qian Yu with concern. After seeing the injuries on the latter's body, his face became even more gloomy.
"Who do you think you are? Just a nobody scholar. What waves can you possibly make?"
Tiger Fool was taken aback at first, but after seeing that Ye Ru was just a scholar, a hint of disdain appeared on his face.
"I may not be able to make a splash, but..."
As soon as he finished speaking, Ye Ru looked in a certain direction:
"Senior Longhai, Mr. Zhang Dong and Mr. Zhang Zhi, please deal with this person."
"clear."
Three mocking voices rang out, accompanied by three powerful energies that rose directly from here. A sense of oppression, like Mount Tai, pressed down fiercely on Tiger Fool.
"This power..."
Sensing these three forces, several times stronger than his own, Tiger Fool's expression changed, and almost reflexively, he retreated rapidly.
"Want to run?"
Long Hai's lips curled into a smile, and with a tremor, he transformed into a giant dragon and gave chase.
The oppressive aura emanating from the dragon slowed Tiger Fool down, making him almost want to kneel down.
But a sense of crisis told him that if he stopped, he would likely become the dragon's meal in an instant.
