"yes!"
——Divider——
Hu Batian knelt on one knee, half of his body trembling!
He thought Gu Liyan had already exhausted himself in the previous battle, but he didn't expect that the following battle was just a complete joke.
Not only did it see through my attack, but it also trapped me in the magic circle, making me see countless illusions that tormented my mind. It was truly terrifying!
Gu Liyan looked at the pale-faced Hu Batian without changing his expression and said calmly, "Hu Batian, are you willing to continue fighting with me?"
Hu Batian lowered his head and swallowed hard. "From this day forward, the Tiger Clan will have no more Demon Kings. We are willing to admit defeat!"
Mei Meier looked at Gu Liyan with a shocked expression: She never expected that Gu Liyan not only had powerful demonic arts, but also knew human formations. It was truly unbelievable!
Offstage, the cat demon Sanque licked his paws, his cat ears twitched, looking extremely cute, yet he looked at Gu Liyan with arrogant disdain and said, "Hmph, that guy Hu Batian is really a piece of trash. Lord Lu Yao, I think I should go up and tear that guy to pieces!"
Seated upright and silent until now, the Cat Demon King, dressed in a black robe, slightly raised his head, his beautiful amber eyes sweeping over Gu Liyan before speaking, "No rush!"
San Que pouted, looking displeased, and whispered a reminder, "Lord Lu Yao, he must be exhausted by now. We can take him down directly..."
"No rush!" Lu Yao said calmly, glancing casually at the Eagle Clan and Snake Clan beside him.
Upon seeing Lu Yao's gaze, San Que immediately understood and secretly grinned mischievously.
Hu Batian's submission was a good thing for everyone. The Tiger Clan was the nemesis of most of those present, and Gu Liyan's ability to subdue him first relieved them.
Looking at the various expressions on the faces of the demons, Gu Liyan remained calm and composed. "I wonder if there are any others who look down on me? Feel free to step forward!"
"I, Xiong Qi, will have a go at you!" With that, a burly and robust young man stood up.
"Xiong Qi? Are you the patriarch of the Xiong clan?" Gu Liyan asked curiously, looking at the young man who had just arrived.
"My name is Xiong Qi, and I am the current young patriarch of the Xiong clan," Xiong Qi said. "My father is not here, so I cannot represent the decisions of my Xiong clan. However, I, Xiong Qi, am born to fight, and I wish to challenge you to a battle!"
Gu Liyan suddenly realized—this guy was a warmonger! However, Gu Liyan didn't know how many more demon kings would step forward, and fighting Xiong Qi would drain his stamina…
"Don't worry, if I win the fight against you, I will definitely not take your life!" Xiong Qi said when he saw that Gu Liyan was unwilling to accept the duel.
Gu Liyan smiled wryly; he wasn't worried about that at all...
Before Gu Liyan could speak, Xiong Qi patted his chest and pointed to the other demon kings behind him, saying, "If you win, I, Xiong Qi, am willing to fight them with you! These guys are using a tag-team approach against you alone, it's too shameful! I really can't stand it anymore!"
Gu Liyan smiled slightly. So that's why he stood up for me: Brother, your righteousness really moves me!
The bear clan's guards began to cheer and shout:
"Our young master's righteousness is truly moving!"
"Go, young master! If you defeat him, we'll be the Demon King!"
"Go for it, young master!"
...
Gu Liyan's face darkened: Never mind what I said...
Xiong Qi's aura suddenly changed. "Take this! Savage Charge—"
Gu Liyan's expression changed drastically: "Savage my ass! I'm not ready yet!"
Thud—
Gu Liyan was knocked away and fell to the ground.
"Young Master is truly amazing!"
"Keep torturing him!"
"Don't stop, keep hitting him!"
Xiong Qi's eyes gleamed with fighting spirit, and he pounded his chest as if begging for a beating.
Gu Liyan slowly stood up, his blood rushing to his head, and he couldn't help but cough lightly, "Cough cough—"
"Waaah!" Chanyu looked at Gu Liyan with concern.
Gu Liyan was surprised to see the power Xiong Qi had unleashed on him: This guy, did he just use a demon race skill? It actually boosted his power so much! If my defense wasn't high, I would probably be seriously injured.
Xiong Qi was slightly surprised to see Gu Liyan quickly adjust her breathing, but after thinking for a moment, she excitedly said, "You can still stand up after taking my attack head-on, you are really strong!"
Gu Liyan couldn't help but smile. "Was that a skill passed down from the Bear Clan?"
“That’s right, that’s right!” Xiong Qi nodded.
Gu Liyan smiled slightly, "Indeed barbaric!"
Hearing Gu Liyan's "praise," Xiong Qi scratched his head sheepishly, "I... I also think it was a bit barbaric."
This skill made him one of the "Three Great Bears" whom no one dared to provoke in the Bear Clan.
Gu Liyan narrowed his purple eyes and said, "Your skill has a flaw, a fatal weakness of your bear clan!"
Xiong Qi was stunned for a moment, then became furious and embarrassed. "Nonsense! This is the strongest ability-enhancing technique of our Xiong clan. It can't possibly have any flaws!"
Gu Liyan sneered, "Even the most meticulous plans can have flaws. Next, I will face your attack head-on and—break your technique!"
Enraged by Gu Liyan's provocation, Xiong Qi roared and charged forward again.
Seeing this, Gu Liyan rushed towards him without hesitation, just like Xiong Qi, and the two collided with a loud bang.
Instantly, dust billowed up all around.
"What's going on?" Sanque squinted at the battlefield. "Why can't I see clearly inside?"
“No need to look anymore. That brief collision was blocked by a barrier set up by that monster named Gu Liyan,” Lu Yao said, his amber eyes gleaming with shrewdness. “It seems he doesn’t want to reveal Xiong Qi’s weakness in front of us demons!”
