When the Demon Ancestor saw Senior Shangguan and I fall, he raised his head and laughed wildly, "You righteous cultivators, why don't you practice diligently in your own holy land?"
How dare you come to my Western Wasteland and meddle in my affairs? You truly overestimate your abilities! Today is the day you die!
As soon as the Demon Ancestor finished his harsh words, he waved his hands, and black mist surged around him. Huge and strange black runes instantly emerged, carrying a breath of destruction, and rushed towards us like an overwhelming sea.
Below, the little black dog was extremely anxious, his eyes red with anxiety, and he yelled at the top of his voice: "Master, be careful!"
I collapsed in the air at this moment, my whole body felt like it was falling apart, pain was excruciating everywhere, every muscle was twitching, and every inch of my bone felt like it had been hit by a heavy hammer.
When I looked up, the dense black runes that exuded the smell of death were already within reach.
It was about to devour Senior Shangguan and me, and the shadow of death had never been so clear above our heads.
At this moment, my mind was blank and fear wrapped around my body and mind like vines.
At this critical moment, the familiar and urgent mechanical voice of the system suddenly rang in my mind: "Host, wake up quickly and put the gold bracelet on it!"
The sound was like a heavy hammer hitting a drum, shaking my chaotic consciousness violently.
I tried hard to dispel the dizziness that was tangled in my vision, clenching my teeth and making a chattering sound, and tried my best to move my trembling fingers towards my wrist.
When his fingertips finally touched the gold bracelet, it was almost an instinctive reaction of his body.
I pulled it off violently, then used all my spiritual energy to throw it towards the direction of the Demon Ancestor.
In an instant, the golden bracelet broke away from his palm, and suddenly grew larger while whistling in the wind. Thousands of dazzling rays of light burst out from the whole body, as if a golden sun appeared out of nowhere.
It swiftly drew a stunning arc in the air, carrying endless momentum, and shot straight towards the world-destroying black fog that seemed to be able to swallow the sky and the earth, and the arrogant demon shadow that was looming in it.
In an instant, the golden bracelet collided violently with the rolling black fog. For a moment, the light and darkness tore at each other and were in a stalemate. The golden bracelet could not move forward even a little bit.
At this extremely anxious moment, a melodious flute sound seemed to come from the distant sky.
In a trance, I thought I was back in the abyss.
At this moment, Senior Shangguan forced himself to stand up and shouted with all his might in the direction where the flute sound came from: "Young friend Su!" His voice was hoarse but revealed an unquestionable urgency.
I was suddenly shocked by the shout, and my scattered mind instantly gathered, and my eyes looked straight ahead.
The originally impenetrable black fog suddenly became messy and dispersed in wisps as if it was torn apart by an invisible giant hand.
I was startled and quickly came to my senses. I knew in my heart that this was a perfect opportunity to turn the tide of the battle and survive. Once missed, there would be no recovery.
I gritted my teeth and tried my best to squeeze out the little spiritual power that had just recovered in my body, but every bit of strength was drained away.
When the spiritual power gathered in my palm, I was already sweating profusely, and then I slapped it hard at the golden bracelet hanging in the air, whose light was slightly dimmed due to energy consumption.
As spiritual power was injected into it, the golden bracelet seemed to sense my determination and instantly began to buzz.
It whistled like an arrow shot from a bow, piercing through the already dispersed black fog, just like a falcon locking onto its prey, and flew straight towards the Demon Ancestor.
The demon ancestor was horrified and looked up to see the golden bracelet so close to him. In panic, he wanted to raise his hand to knock it down, but it was too late.
The moment the golden bracelet reached the top of the Demon Ancestor's head, it suddenly grew several times larger, as if the sky was overturning. With a "clang", it fell accurately from the top of his head and trapped the Demon Ancestor firmly.
The trapped demon ancestor was terrified and struggled desperately, roaring so loudly that the air around him vibrated, but he was unable to break free from the shackles.
Senior Shangguan and I were suspended in mid-air. We took a long breath and our tense bodies slowly relaxed, but fatigue came over us like a tide.
The little black dog below saw that the demon ancestor was trapped, and his eyes were full of anxiety. He quickly flew to my side and wanted to help me up.
At this moment, a figure came rushing over like lightning, so fast that I had no time to react, and he picked me up steadily.
I held up my heavy eyelids in a daze, and in my hazy vision, the outline of the figure looked like Su Qiyuan.
His eyes, which were usually deep and smiling, were now filled with worry and anxiety, and a familiar aura lingered around him.
I felt relieved, and my tense heartstrings finally loosened, as if a drifting ship had found a harbor. I fainted with peace of mind.
Before my consciousness faded, I felt myself falling into a warm and safe embrace, being gently cared for.
Su Qiyuan looked at me who was unconscious in his arms. He was always calm, but now his eyes were full of panic and pity.
His long, bony fingers gently brushed aside the messy hair on my forehead, carefully, as if he was touching the most fragile treasure in the world.
Su Qiyuan looked coldly at the trapped demon ancestor, murderous intent surging in his eyes. He said in a cold voice: "You evil beast, how dare you hurt my Ling'er? Today is the day you die!"
The demon ancestor was trapped in the golden bracelet, but he still refused to give up and struggled frantically.
He roared furiously, "You human monks, don't be complacent! Once I break free from these restraints, I will kill you all!"
Su Qiyuan snorted coldly, and the spiritual power in his hand gathered. A dazzling light lit up in his palm. He slowly raised his hand, ready to give the Demon Ancestor a fatal blow.
At this time, Senior Shangguan said from the side: "Young friend Su, he is the demon ancestor after all. Why not hand him over to his clansmen and let them deal with him? It might not be appropriate for us to deal with him."
The rules of the demon world are complicated. If we kill it rashly, we may be criticized by the demon world. It is more appropriate to let the demon world decide for itself. This can not only maintain the reputation of the demon clan, but also avoid unnecessary disputes.
When Su Qiyuan heard this, he paused, frowned, and his eyes were full of unwillingness and hesitation.
He glanced at me who was unconscious in his arms, and recalled how I was injured and dying by the Demon Ancestor, and hatred surged in his heart again.
But Senior Shangguan's words echoed in his ears again. After weighing the pros and cons, he gritted his teeth and said bitterly, "Okay, I'll do as you say."
Upon seeing this, Senior Shangguan nodded slightly, then threw the Demon Ancestor onto the altar.
Senior Shangguan looked at the little black dog and said, "Dog Emperor, I leave this old demon to you."
At this time, the little black dog looked at me in Su Qiyuan's arms, full of worry, and his eyes never moved away.
After hearing what Senior Shangguan said, he slowly came to his senses and looked at the Demon Ancestor.
The Demon Ancestor at this moment no longer had the arrogance he had just now. He was trapped in the golden bracelet and had lost all his demonic power. He was weak and in a miserable state, but the murderous light in his eyes still flashed.
