Chapter 161: Goddess of Luck_1
Su Chengyu knew that he had no chance of winning in a fight. His only hope lay in invoking the name of the Demon Slayer Department in an attempt to intimidate the Demon Man into retreating.
The Demon Slayer Department specialized in eradicating creatures like him and was their natural nemesis. Merely mentioning the department’s name was enough to make any Demon Man change color from fear.
Just as he’d hoped, the Demon Man’s face turned deathly pale and he backed away in fear before turning to flee in terror.
"Where do you think you’re going! As the Demon Slayer Envoy, I am determined to slay you today!"
Su Chengyu shouted with bravado, but his actions betrayed him—he didn’t make a move to chase him.
What a joke! The Demon Man was too strong; to follow him would be a death wish!
Seeing that the Demon Man had disappeared out of sight, Su Chengyu let out a sigh of relief and wiped away his cold sweat. "The name of the Demon Slayer Department does carry quite some weight!"
Su Chengyu hurriedly walked toward the speedboat with the intent to rescue the sibling pair first.
However, just as he was about to reach the speedboat, he heard the voice of the Demon Man behind him.
"I almost fell for your trick! The Demon Slayer Envoys of the Demon Slayer Department are extraordinarily powerful. Even the weakest, clad in black, have the strength of a Great Grandmaster. To think you dared to deceive me with the name of the Demon Slayer Department!"
The Demon Man had run for a short distance before realizing something was wrong and returned.
