[Yuan Wu: Demon King Nineth Level, Demon King of the Qilin Ape Clan, has killed countless people]

[Kill it and you will gain 100,000 years of ordinary power and 900 years of martial arts power]
…
Wei Fan shifted his gaze from Duan Qingfeng to the four people who appeared with You Qingfeng, and found that the panel also reacted.
"Everyone around him is a demon king!" Wei Fan said in a voice transmission.
Fenghua's eyes narrowed slightly. She used the Qi-Bian magic to look at it, but didn't see any difference: "Let's wait and see!"
Duan Qingfeng walked in quickly from outside with his head held high, then stood in the middle of the hall and bowed, saying, "My fellow Taoists, I am sorry for the rudeness."
He looks very generous. If the panel had not indicated that Duan Qingfeng had colluded with demons, he would have thought that he was a chivalrous hero.
"Brother Duan is late. He must have gone to prepare birthday gifts for Patriarch Duan."
Someone asked, "I wonder what birthday gift Brother Duan prepared for Patriarch Duan?"
"What Brother Duan prepared must not be the vulgar things we brought!"
Duan Qingfeng laughed and said, "You all guessed correctly. I was indeed delayed because I went to prepare gifts."
Duan Xingnian showed a relieved smile: "I'm glad my son is back!"
"Brother Duan, what gifts have you prepared? Take them out and let us open our eyes." Someone said in a cheering voice.
Of course, it was not considered as inciting trouble. After all, Duan Qingfeng was a peak martial king, and he sounded as if he was late because the gift he prepared was very expensive. How could they not be curious?
At this time, Duan Qingfeng turned his wrist, and a blood-red coral as red as a diamond appeared in his hand. On the main branch as thick as his arm, there were six smaller branches.
"Six thousand year old blood coral!" Someone couldn't help but gasp.
The six thousand year old blood coral can be called a treasure. Although the backlash suffered after failing to break through to the Martial Saint level is almost impossible to recover, there are still some treasures that can restore some of the damaged origin and blood.
This blood coral is one of them. A six thousand year old blood coral is enough to allow King Wu, who failed to break through, to live another two to three hundred years.
It is said that if one could find a ten thousand year old blood coral, even if one could not recover to the peak state, there would be a chance to impact the Martial Saint realm once more, and the life span of the Martial King who failed and survived could be increased to eighteen hundred years, and his strength would not be much weaker than that of a peak warrior.
"Father, this is the birthday gift I prepared for you. I wish you good fortune and a long life."
Duan Qingfeng knelt down and lifted up the blood coral.
"My son is so thoughtful!" Duan Xingnian, with a resolute face, was so happy that the corners of his mouth were almost split to his ears. With a son like this, what else could he ask for?
He stretched out his hands to take the blood coral from his son Duan Qingfeng's hand and was about to look at it carefully, but the next moment, something unexpected happened.
After Duan Xingnian took the blood coral, Duan Qingfeng, who was kneeling on the ground, stood up like thunder and punched Duan Xingnian in the chest.
There was a loud cracking sound of bones breaking, Duan Xingnian's chest caved in, blood gushed out of his mouth, the blood coral he had just received in his hand was thrown high up, and his body flew out involuntarily.
Everyone was stunned. Just now the scene was of a loving father and filial son, but unexpectedly it turned into a situation where the son was cruel to the father in the blink of an eye. Even Wei Fan and Feng Hua were stunned. They also did not expect that Duan Qingfeng would suddenly attack his father Duan Xingnian.
"boom!"
Duan Xingnian flew backwards and smashed a hole in the wall, and the violent force immediately collapsed the house.
Duan Qingfeng stretched out his five fingers and caught the flying blood coral in his hand. His previous generous expression now turned ferocious.
"Why did Duan Qingfeng attack the head of the Duan family?"
"What happened?"
"Why did Patriarch Duan fly out?"
…
Many people were still confused. Some with poor cultivation did not even see clearly that it was Duan Qingfeng who attacked Duan Xingnian.
"Duan Qingfeng, what are you doing, you beast?"
"The head of the family..."
"This beast is going to rebel!"
The expressions of the Duan family disciples changed drastically. Some scolded Duan Qingfeng, while others ran over to help Duan Xingnian up from the ruins.
He had managed to survive the backlash after trying to reach the realm of Martial Saint, but was ambushed and punched by the son of the peak Martial King. He was now almost half dead, his breath disordered, and he had to rely on two Duan family disciples to stand up from the ground.
"Are you crazy, you beast?"
Duan Xingnian had disheveled hair and a pale face, and he almost gritted his teeth as he spoke these words. Until now, he still had no idea why Duan Qingfeng attacked him.
"Father, I am not crazy. I have never been more sober than now."
Duan Qingfeng's face was ferocious, and a large flag suddenly appeared in his hand. When the flag was unfurled, the entire Duan family and even Panyang City began to shake. The energy of heaven and earth surged, and a huge light shield completely covered the sky.
Duan Xingnian's expression changed drastically: "When did you, a beast, steal the battle flag?"
He is the head of the Duan family and the lord of Panyang City. The flag that controls the city defense formation should be in his hands, but now it appears in Duan Qingfeng's hands.
"No, this formation has been modified."
Duan Xingnian suddenly looked up and saw a layer of something like blood in the light shield spreading rapidly, emitting an evil aura.
"This is a demonic formation, what do you want to do, beast?"
Demonic formation, upon hearing these words, the expressions of the people present also changed. Duan Qingfeng obviously did not want to kill his father to seize power, and as the most outstanding person in the Duan family at that time, there was no need for this at all. As long as he did not die when he broke through to the level of Martial Saint, the position of the head of the family would be his sooner or later.
"To be precise, this is the Heavenly Demon Devouring Yuan Formation, which is used to refine the Heavenly Demon Devouring Yuan Pill. You and this blood coral are both part of the great medicine I prepared."
The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!
Duan Qingfeng's face was full of ferocity, and he corrected the mistakes in Duan Xingnian's words: "Once the great medicine is made, I can become a saint right away and become the Duan family's first martial saint. Father, are you satisfied with this birthday gift?"
He wanted to use this group of Martial Kings of the Duan family and the people of Panyang City to refine a pot of elixir with amazing effects to help him break through to the level of Martial Saint.
In an instant, everyone looked grim and started cursing Duan Qingfeng.
"You can curse me as much as you want. I'm going to refine you anyway, so it's okay for you to curse me."
Duan Qingfeng didn't care about the scolding from others. He was in control of the formation. Duan Xingnian, the only ninth-level Martial King present, had been injured by his sneak attack. These people were trapped.
"You beast, why are you so heartless?"
Duan Xingnian was puzzled. Even if Duan Qingfeng had fallen and wanted to refine the Heavenly Demon Devouring Yuan Pill, he could have chosen other places. Why did he choose Panyang City where his family was located and refine his own people as well?
Even if ordinary people fall into the devil, they will only harm other people, but his son Duan Qingfeng is the first one to set his sights on his family.
"It's all because of you!"
Duan Qingfeng suddenly showed an angry look: "Ever since that bastard Duan Qingshan was killed, you have used all the strength of my Duan family to fight against demons for his revenge. He is your son, so I am not your son? Aren't you afraid that my son will die too after one of you died? In order to please you, I have risked my life to fight demons every year, and I have narrowly escaped death several times. Have you ever considered me? Have you ever thought about whether I am willing to risk my life for Duan Qingshan?"
His face was full of ferocity and anger. "No matter how hard I try, Duan Qingshan will always be the most outstanding one in your heart. He will always be the best. For a dead person, you took risks with my life. Every time I come back from going out, you always care about how many demons I killed, and never care whether I am in danger."
"You beast, isn't it natural for you to avenge your brother?" Duan Xingnian was furious: "Because of these things, you, a beast, want to degenerate, kill your father, and kill all your relatives and friends?"
Duan Qingfeng shook his head: "Three years ago, I was framed by the demons, captured alive by them, locked up and tortured for half a month. Finally, I couldn't stand the torture and agreed to cooperate with them.
I returned home feeling guilty and in pain, but your first question was how many demons I had killed.
Do you know how much my heart ached at that moment? Just because of that one sentence from you, I knew that no matter how much I did, I was just a tool for you to avenge Duan Qingshan."
No one else felt much about these words, except Duan Xingnian, whose angry expression finally disappeared and his body trembled noticeably.
"You are a coward, haven't I been good enough to you over the years? I was strict with you only so that you can become a talent and lead the Duan family to glory."
But he still scolded Duan Qingfeng in a stern father's tone.
Duan Qingfeng shook his head: "It doesn't matter anymore. My collusion with the demons has been discovered by the demon hunter organization. The Duan family will be exterminated sooner or later. Instead of that, I will make you the perfect medicine for my great medicine."
If the Heavenly Demon swallows the Yuan Dan and uses a close relative as the medicine guide, the effect will be extraordinary.
Fenghua and Wei Fan looked at each other. Duan Qingfeng had actually noticed that he was being targeted by the Demon Hunter Organization. However, he did not expect that the Demon Hunter Organization would remember the Duan family's achievements and did not intend to destroy the entire Duan family.
"Is this what you are thinking? With so many fellow practitioners here, even if you seriously injure me, can you succeed? You hate Qingshan, who is always the most outstanding in my heart. This is true. If Qingshan is captured, let alone tortured for half a month, even if he is tortured for a hundred years, his bones will not become soft. This is the difference between you and him."
Duan Xingnian finally gave up hope on his son. Not only did he not feel guilty for implicating his family, he even thought that instead of letting others do it, he might as well do it himself and use the flesh and blood of his family. What a beast he was.
Duan Qingfeng was a little bit broken, and his expression was crazy: "Who said I was just alone, Brother Yuan, come out and meet my family and friends."
"boom……"
A terrifying demonic aura erupted, and to everyone's shock, the several men who had followed Duan Qingfeng in before all turned into demons, glancing at everyone with a hideous grin.
Someone screamed, "Four ninth-level demon kings!"
They might not be able to defeat just one peak Martial King Duan Qingfeng, and with four ninth-level Demon Kings added in, there is no chance of them surviving at all.
