Chapter 557 - 553: Tiger Demon Commander
Whoosh!
High above, Ye Chen's body seemed to transform into a sky dragon, flying toward Xu Yan at an incredible speed.
"It's Ye Chen, everyone, the Weasel Demon was killed by this damned member of the Human Race," an Outer Realm Demon Race member said angrily.
This Outer Realm Demon Race member was a subordinate of the Weasel Demon and had witnessed Ye Chen killing the Weasel Demon.
So, he rushed here at the first moment to inform the five Demon Race Commanders of this matter.
After all, among the Outer Realm Demons in this valley, only these five Demon Race Commanders were more powerful than the Weasel Demon.
Besides them, no one else could avenge the Weasel Demon's death.
"Commanders, this damned member of the Human Race killed several hundred of our kin on his way here. You must tear him to pieces to avenge our kin!" A group of Outer Realm Demons spoke out, eyes blazing with anger.
They had all been forced to escape to this place by Ye Chen.
As for Ye Chen killing Lei Dong, they were not aware of it.
All those Outer Realm Demons who knew about it had died at Ye Chen's hands and hadn't had the chance to report it to the five Demon Race Commanders.
Otherwise, they would have taken Ye Chen very seriously by now.
"Hmph! A mere greenhorn, daring to kill so many of our Demon Race's strong warriors, he must be tired of living. Let me tear him to pieces." At this moment, a massive figure abruptly sped toward Ye Chen, the air exploding with a deafening sonic boom wherever it passed, creating an incredibly frightening scene.
This figure was none other than the Tiger Demon.
Standing tall at five zhang, his body emanated golden demon energy, and he wielded a huge War Axe emanating a strikingly sharp edge, as if it could easily split mountains.
"Hu Lie, quickly crush this insect, then come help us deal with this witch. She's already at her limit, don't let her escape," the Flower Demon said coldly, looking at Ye Chen like an ant that could be easily crushed.
Although Zhu'er was greatly weakened due to internal injuries,
without the Tiger Demon's help, the Flower Demon and Spider Demon would still find it difficult to kill Zhu'er.
So naturally, the Flower Demon hoped that the Tiger Demon could quickly deal with the ant-like Ye Chen.
Otherwise, Zhu'er might break free at any moment.
"Don't worry, a mere Human Race insect can be killed with one swipe of my claw." The Tiger Demon couldn't help but sneer, showing extreme disdain, not taking Ye Chen seriously at all.
Yes!
Ye Chen did kill the Weasel Demon, that's true.
But compared to him, the Weasel Demon's strength wasn't even in the same realm.
So he had absolute confidence in crushing Ye Chen easily.
"No, it's that Tiger Demon, Ye Chen, run!" Xu Yan's face turned ghastly, shouting anxiously at Ye Chen.
Roar!
At the same time, a forty to fifty zhang long Red Flood Dragon appeared behind him, clawing at the Bear Demon and Fox Demon, trying to push them back to save Ye Chen.
"Ha! Foolish creature, you're struggling to protect yourself, yet you want to save that ant? Overestimating yourself, break for me." The Bear Demon sneered, a dazzling black light flashing from its body, swinging its giant bear paw at the Red Flood Dragon, instantly blocking it.
The Fox Demon, meanwhile, used a Divine Soul Secret Technique to force Xu Yan back.
With this, Xu Yan was completely unable to save Ye Chen.
"Damn it, how could this happen? With the Tiger Demon's strength, he could kill Junior Brother Ye Chen with a single strike. If anything happens to him, how will I explain to the Peak Masters?" Xu Yan's teeth clenched hard, his eyes turning blood red.
Although he knew Ye Chen couldn't possibly be a match for the Tiger Demon, once the Tiger Demon closed in, there was no doubt he would die.
Yet there was nothing he could do but watch as Ye Chen was killed by the Tiger Demon.
This feeling was more unbearable than being killed himself.
"Run, Ye Chen, run! You can't possibly comprehend the Tiger Demon's strength. Do you really want to die here?" At this point, Zhu'er's beautiful face had lost all color, a mix of anxiety and anger in her expression.
She was nearly driven mad by Ye Chen.
The Tiger Demon's strength was close to the Profound Pill realm; even ten Wang Tians together couldn't be his match.
And Ye Chen had only managed to kill Wang Tian by luck, yet he wanted to contend with the Tiger Demon.
It was truly overestimating himself.
"What does a mere Tiger Demon count as? Killing him is as easy as slaughtering a dog." To Zhu'er's surprise, Ye Chen not only showed no intention of fleeing but responded with utter disdain, his tone overwhelmingly confident and forceful.
"What?" Zhu'er's body trembled violently, nearly fainting from anger at Ye Chen.
At this crucial moment, how could Ye Chen dare utter such foolish words? Where did he get such confidence?
"Haha! With just you, an ant, daring to spout such nonsense in front of me—let me see how you'll kill me." The Tiger Demon laughed, his mouth curling in mockery, as if he'd heard the world's funniest joke.
Whoosh.
In a flash, his massive frame appeared above Ye Chen's head, the golden demon energy surging within him wrapped around his War Axe, swinging down fiercely at Ye Chen.
A thunderous bang.
The power behind this axe was truly terrifying, containing the force of nine million tigers, splitting the air in two and generating countless white gas waves.
In order to quickly resolve this ant Ye Chen, the Tiger Demon held nothing back, unleashing his strongest killing technique right from the start.
"No!" A voice of extreme grief and anger burst from Xu Yan's mouth, as if witnessing the moment Ye Chen was split into pieces.
Though Ye Chen had fully mastered the Black Flood Dragon Technique and boasted a strong physical defense,
against the Tiger Demon's power, it was no more than papier-mâché.
There was absolutely no way he could withstand this attack.
"Miss, I'm sorry, I've done my best. It's Ye Chen who didn't listen to me, there's nothing I can do." Zhu'er's face turned ghastly as she sighed inwardly.
She had already warned Ye Chen to flee quickly, but Ye Chen insisted on staying. If he was killed, who could he blame?
It seemed, this was Ye Chen's fate.
He was destined to die in the Celestial Cry Mountain Range.
