Chapter 1047 Explosion
The Demon Emperor smiled faintly: "Oh, you came quite quickly!"
Wen Taikang's eyes compressed like steel needles, staring intensely at the Demon Emperor.
A sharp, cold aura enveloped the Demon Emperor tightly from Wen Taikang's presence.
Yet, the Demon Emperor remained calm, glancing at Wen Xiaoxiao ever so slightly.
"Wen Taikang, I know your Kung Fu is powerful, but with worries in your heart, you're simply here to die."
Through clenched teeth, Wen Taikang spat out: "Despicable!"
The Demon Emperor laughed heartily: "If I weren't despicable, I'd be long dead."
"I have your granddaughter in my hands; why should I fight you head-on? Do you understand the art of warfare?"
Wen Taikang's entire being was surrounded by a massive Gang Qi storm.
His destructive aura locked onto the Demon Emperor: "Don't you dare!"
The Demon Emperor squinted, speaking casually: "Even if I go all out, you can certainly resist."
"But this little girl, as delicate as a flower bud, can't withstand a Gang Qi storm."
"Just a touch will shatter her five viscera instantly, believe it?"
Wen Taikang's expression was fierce, yet he dared not act.
He was aware, the Demon Emperor's words were entirely true.
At this moment, Wen Xiaoxiao was less than two meters from the Demon Emperor.
This distance required no action from the Demon Emperor; just a clash between the two would assuredly affect Wen Xiaoxiao with the storm, severely injuring her or worse.
Just then, Wen Taikang suddenly noticed.
Yang Fei's figure had sneakily appeared behind a bush less than five meters from the Demon Emperor.
His frame blended perfectly with the pine and cypress.
If he hadn't raised a hand to signal, Wen Taikang wouldn't have noticed him at all.
Wen Taikang was utterly astounded.
The Demon Emperor, already at the peak level of Gang Jin Heavenly Quality, had senses that defied imagination.
For Yang Fei to approach within five meters of the Demon Emperor showcased stealth abilities beyond belief.
Wen Taikang was shocked; the Nine Extremes Technique truly was the foremost mental method in the Martial Arts world with its mysterious abilities.
Behind the pine trees, Yang Fei fully deployed the Snake Sting Heart Method, hiding his aura almost completely.
He gestured towards Wen Xiaoxiao, raising three fingers and bending each downwards.
Wen Taikang understood the signal, instantly regaining composure while his face showed helpless disdain.
"Demon Emperor, you are an Imperial Level Great Owl, a Great Grandmaster, yet you threaten a helpless woman, where is your dignity?"
The Demon Emperor chuckled coldly: "In the end, only results matter."
At that moment, Yang Fei bent his fingers and fiercely waved his left hand downward.
Wen Taikang let out a long howl, instantly forming a Tiger Head Golden Spear from Gang Qi, thrusting at the Demon Emperor's throat.
A dull sound echoed in the void, with airflow swirling and gathering onto the Tiger Head Golden Spear.
The Gang Qi Long Spear quickly expanded, thick as a rafter, transforming into a colossal long spear with astonishing power.
Though one of the Demon Emperor's arms was broken, his Martial Arts Realm remained unaffected.
The Demon Emperor never expected Wen Taikang to indeed dare strike fiercely.
On instinct, he reached for Wen Xiaoxiao, intending to hold her as a hostage.
Yet at that moment, an unseen force arrived like a cage, ensnaring the Demon Emperor unexpectedly.
The Demon Emperor was shocked, and in this split second, Yang Fei dashed forward.
He grasped Wen Xiaoxiao's waist, flipped out, moving as fast as lightning.
Having lost the hostage, the Demon Emperor was startled.
He never imagined Yang Fei could, at a Danjin Realm, deploy a force field akin to Absolute Domain to trap him.
In a moment of bewilderment, Wen Taikang's Gang Qi Long Spear struck towards his head.
The spear's tip collided with the air, sparking numerous flashes with incredible power.
At this life-or-death critical moment, the Demon Emperor erupted with unprecedented, stunning might.
With a single hand forming seals, he pushed outward, causing numerous runes to shatter.
Bang!
The entrance of Mazu Temple appeared as if hit by an explosion.
Centered around the two combatants, torrent-like Gang Qi swept the surroundings.
The blue stone floor and massive sand flew up into the sky.
The greenery on both sides was uprooted entirely, with a mushroom cloud rising upward, showcasing tremendous power.
Wen Taikang stumbled backward, his face pale, pain piercing his five viscera.
Though Wen Taikang had mastered turning Gang Qi into soldiers, and compared to the peak-level Demon Emperor, the strength was evenly matched, even edging slightly ahead.
However, the Demon Emperor had swallowed half a Divine Crystal, gaining demigod status.
He possessed Divine Crystal power, making Wen Taikang no match against him.
This clash injured Wen Taikang directly.
The Demon Emperor chuckled coldly, his domineering aura evident.
"Get out of my way, or die!"
He shouted, his body emitting strange runes, rushing towards Wen Taikang.
Wen Taikang barely steadied himself, cried out, forming a Gang Qi Long Spear and thrusting at the Demon Emperor.
This time, both had known the other's strength, avoiding direct confrontation, commencing close-quarters combat.
In an instant, the scene was filled with continuous roaring, blowing sand and stones, endless dust swirling.
The two great masters tangled in an intense struggle.
Not far away, Wen Xiaoxiao watched Yang Fei as if in a dream, overwhelmed with surprise and joy.
"Brother Fang, I knew you would come to rescue me."
Yang Fei, however, felt alarmed, calling out inwardly at the looming disaster.
If Old Man Wen took on three more of the Demon Emperor's moves, he'd likely meet his end.
He patted Wen Xiaoxiao's shoulder.
"Xiaoxiao, quickly run down the mountain road, as far as possible; this old monster has gone mad."
Wen Xiaoxiao knew staying would only burden Yang Fei.
She reddened her eyes, kissed Yang Fei, turned, and bolted downhill.
Bang!
Just then, a muffled sound.
Amidst flying dust, Wen Taikang's body seemed like a ball kicked fiercely, flying straight out, crashing at the entrance of Mazu Temple.
The entire main hall's doors collapsed, burying Wen Taikang beneath.
Only half his head was visible, blood spewing from his mouth uncontrollably.
Countless runes protected the Demon Emperor, pouncing like a leopard towards Wen Taikang.
Seeing the situation deteriorate, Yang Fei triggered Scale Quake, sending a silent subsonic wave targeting the Demon Emperor's internal organs.
Puff!
The Demon Emperor instantly spat a mouthful of blood, his runes scrambled and vanished.
Having struck off Wen Taikang, the Demon Emperor's internal organs were already injured.
Now ambushed by the subsonic wave, he couldn't resist, spewing blood wildly.
Yang Fei hadn't anticipated succeeding in one strike.
Crying out, he combined Brahma Fetal Giant Hand Seal with Elephant Shocking Power, ascending and slapping towards the Demon Emperor.
The Demon Emperor's interior was wounded, reducing Divine Crystal power significantly.
Only the sound of a grand crash followed, as if half of the heavens had collapsed, Yang Fei's palm descended overwhelmingly.
The Demon Emperor's face changed instantly.
He never imagined Yang Fei, with just a realm difference, could unleash such ferocious destructive force.
Shouting loudly, he mobilized Gang Yuan Qi within, meeting the attack fiercely.
Boom!
Yang Fei only felt an immensely heavy force surge, unable to resist being flung outward.
His internal organs felt compressed, even the last breath in his chest was forced out, gold stars swirling before his eyes.
The fourth part to be added tomorrow morning.
