Faced with the Golden Feathered Demon's pursuit, Chen Ya and Brother Tian were cornered in an alley. Just as they were about to be devoured, an old man intervened, severing the demon's beak. However, before he could finish the demon, another powerful figure, Fang Yu, appeared and attacked the old man, claiming Chen Ya and Brother Tian as his prey.

"Uuugh..."

Presently, the creature beneath Fang Yu’s feet let out a faint groan.

It was the Golden Feathered Demon, its head already obliterated halfway, its life force rapidly waning.

The situation was dire, and Fang Yu had reflexively applied more strength than intended.

Fortunately, Ding Hui had not specifically requested it be captured alive, otherwise dealing with it now would have been a considerable hassle.

Fang Yu, while keeping the hostile elder in his sight, lowered himself. Under the observant eyes of the others, he slowly extended his hand to caress the remaining fragment of the Golden Feathered Demon’s beak.

As the Golden Feathered Demon wearily gazed up at Fang Yu with its fading eyes...

Buzz!!

A swift sword strike extinguished its final spark of vitality.

-5419!

Spurt!!!

Blood erupted dozens of meters into the air, cascading down like rain, and the severed avian head tumbled to the ground.

Facing the spraying blood, the surrounding young men and women hastily retreated, but the elder remained steadfast, allowing the crimson fluid to drench his face and attire, his gaze fixed intently on Fang Yu.

[Golden Feathered Demon: 0/36155.]

[System Prompt: Congratulations to the player for defeating [Golden Feathered Demon], obtaining 403 experience points.]

[System Prompt: Experience points have surpassed 100, resulting in a total of 5 attribute points.]

The moment the system notifications concluded, the unmoving body of the Golden Feathered Demon listed and collapsed, impacting the adjacent wall.

Rumble.

Amidst the billowing dust, Fang Yu had already landed gracefully. However, at this very instant, a figure adorned with a health bar surged into the haze, rapidly lunging toward Fang Yu with a slashing motion!

Did he truly believe this was an opportune moment to attack?

"Foolish..."

Fang Yu’s right arm, encased in Bone Armor, was positioned in a reverse grip. The partial armament materialized instantaneously, and then...

Clang!!!

One strike!

With merely one sword, the charging adversary was sent flying backward!

It was fortunate that the assailant possessed swift reflexes and considerable strength; otherwise, his head might have been severed along with that precise blow.

Fang Yu was merely experiencing a surge of malevolent Qi, not desiring to escalate the carnage, but he was not one to tolerate being trampled upon by just anyone.

Squinting, he observed the figure now hurtling away, barely managing to regain balance after sliding several meters, and Fang Yu declared coldly.

"Do you desire to perish, old fool?"

Shen Chenshui’s hand exhibited a slight tremor.

If he could rationalize his earlier setback as a consequence of being unprepared during the surprise assault, the subsequent display clearly demonstrated an undeniable disparity in power!

"Interesting!"

Shen Chenshui’s hand ceased its trembling.

At this juncture, Fang Yu, with the carcass of the Golden Feathered Demon providing cover, pointed his sword at Shen Chenshui and deliberately uttered.

"I shall grant you three breaths’ time. Depart, or face death."

Shen Chenshui let out a laugh.

An involuntary laugh escaped him.

Such laughter stemmed from genuine exhilaration.

"I, Shen Chenshui, have navigated the treacherous paths of the Foolish Underworld for half my life. I have endured defeats and suffered injuries, but never… have I entertained the notion of retreat!"

Almost as his words concluded, the ground where Shen Chenshui stood erupted with a sudden burst of air! He himself vanished from that exact spot in an instant!

No!

He was in motion!

Simply moving too rapidly for Chen Ya and the others to track!

Even though his physical form eluded their sight, Chen Ya, through her profound comprehension of Sword Qi principles, managed to discern a similar energetic presence in the air through an uncanny connection!

Over there!

"Master, exercise caution!"

Chen Ya had just managed to pinpoint his location and issued a warning, but it was already exceedingly late.

"Deep Sea… Three Thousand Drops!!!"

A formidable sonic wave detonated explosively near the demon’s remains!

The immense concussive force instantly pulverized the surrounding white walls, scattering feathers ubiquitously and violently propelling Chen Ya and Brother Tian backward.

Brother Tian retched blood and lost consciousness mid-air, disconnecting from the battle instantly, his screen fading to monochrome.

While Chen Ya’s condition was somewhat less severe, she too collapsed to the ground, coughing blood and clutching her chest, grievously wounded.

Yet, the intensity of the unfolding conflict diverted her focus from her own injuries to the unfolding confrontation.

She could sense an emergent comprehension of swordsmanship, on the verge of a breakthrough catalyzed by the close observation of this formidable battle! A new form of swordsmanship was rapidly coalescing within her mind, requiring only further combat experience to solidify.

The powerful airwave generated by the ongoing clash between these formidable combatants had dispersed the dense dust, revealing the scene with unimpeded clarity.

Amidst the scattered feathers on the ground, the young strong man was seen raising his hand to block with the Bone Sword, yet seemingly, due to the exaggerated might of the old officer’s swordsmanship, he was pushed into the ground about a half-inch, barely managing to deflect the assault.

But even so, the residual power of that exaggerated swordsmanship directly shattered the demon’s corpse behind the young man on the spot, splattering everywhere like debris from a body falling from great heights, mixed with the Bird Demon feathers all over the surrounding ground.

From Chen Ya’s limited experience, in this exchange, the elderly officer clearly had the upper hand!!

"Huff ha... Huff ha..."

Shen Chenshui was gasping heavily.

All his strength was focused on the sword, pressing the enemy whose feet were sunken into the ground.

Deep Sea Three Thousand Drop, his trademark ultimate skill, and his strongest attack.

This move even had records of slaying enemies beyond his level!

Although it was achieved with the help of his subordinates, his mastery of Qi Force was the key that landed the final blow on the enemy.

So Shen Chenshui always believed that his secret technique gave him the capital to duel with a Hall Master-level expert!

Right now, it was truly suppressing the old monster sunken into the ground!
