The long-haired female self-cultivator glimpsed at Qingfeng Li with a complicated look. She saw him as the villain before and was cautious about him since she feared that he would harm her and her sister. However, surprisingly he was the one who saved their lives at this crucial moment.
Xiaomei said to Qingfeng Li, “Thank you for saving me and my sister’s lives.”
Qingfeng Li waved his hand and said lightly, “It is very dangerous for you two to be here. Go on and get to the center area of the City where the Spider Dynasty Emperor is. You can tell him that you are friends of mine and seek protection from him.”
Xiaomei was astonished at the sound of the Spider Dynasty Emperor’s name.
She had certainly heard of this name after she came to Five-Poison City. He was a monarch as well as a famous spirit monarch realm master of a high tier dynasty. With a high rank of top ten of the Spirit Monarch List, Spider Dynasty Emperor was known by the entire Crimson Fire Continent.
She did not expect Qingfeng Li to be his acquaintance, not to mention letting him protect her. She and her sister could survive if that would be the case.
Her pale face blushed all of a sudden in excitement. She did not know what else to do to express her gratefulness other than keep saying, “Thank you!”
Qingfeng Li smiled lightly and took out two healing elixirs from his interspatial ring without a word. He gave one to Xiaomei and the other to the long-haired female self-cultivator.
Although the woman did not like Qingfeng Li, she was Xiaomei’s sister so Qingfeng Li wouldn’t stand back when she was in mortal danger.
Xiaomei and her sister were surprised when they saw the elixirs because those were very rare monarch level elixirs. Even some spirit monarch realm cultivators wouldn’t have access to them.
Yet Qingfeng Li just randomly gave the elixirs to them – people whom he had just met.
At this time, even Xiaomei’s sister started to look at him with gratefulness. She kept her feelings deep in her heart since she didn’t know where to start.
Qingfeng Li then took out four pieces of spiritual talismans and handed two to each of them.
Xiaomei and her sister got more surprised as they knew clearly that those were third-tier monarch level spiritual artifacts. They couldn’t accept them at all.
Xiaomei hastily waved her white little hand and rejected, “We can’t take them. They are too precious.”
Qingfeng Li insisted and stuffed the spitirual artifacts into their hands, “You have to take them because there are other demonic beasts on the way to Five-Poison City. These spiritual artifacts can help you get to the Spider Dynasty Emperor in the center of the city safely. And you can get under his protection there.”
Qingfeng Li turned around to leave after that had been said.
Bom, Bom.
Xiaomei and her sister kneeled on the ground and kowtowed their heads towards Qingfeng Li with gratefulness.
They knew that Qingfeng Li not only saved their lives but also gave them an opportunity to survive. It would have been impossible for them to survive in Five-Poison City without his spiritual artifacts.
Xiaomei was stunned when she saw him heading out of the city, “Big Brother Li, what are you going there for? There are millions of demonic beasts and is very dangerous. Come back here!”
Qingfeng Li smiled lightly and waved. “I know about the demonic beasts. They are all governed by the Demon Emperor. As soon as I kill the empress, the million-demon wave will have no leader. Otherwise, all the self-cultivators of Five-Poison City would be killed by them.”
Xiaomei and her sister were in awe seeing Qingfeng Li heading out without hesitation. They were self-cultivators of the lowest level on the Crimson Fire Continent and no one ever cared about their lives.
Not even the high-leveled spirit monarch realm masters. They were used to taking lives as they wished and none of them cared about Xiaomei and her sister’s lives.
But Qingfeng Li was not one of them. He was risking his own life to kill the Demon Emperor for all the self-cultivators of Five-Poison City.
Not only Xiaomei and her sister but also all the surrounding self-cultivators were touched by Qingfeng Li’s remark. They looked at him as if they were looking at a god.
Many of the lower level self-cultivators kneeled and bowed to Qingfeng Li in awe as they knew he might get killed by the million-demon wave outside.
It was not ten thousand or a hundred thousand demonic beasts, but millions of them. Even the thought of it made them scared. No one but Qingfeng Li in the entire Five-Poison City dared to walk outside.
Xiaomei’s sister said, “I misunderstood Qingfeng Li before. I thought he was a villain in the Devil Rankings but he turned out to be a superhero.”
Xiaomei nodded, “Let’s go to the center of the city to find the Spider Dynasty Emperor, sister.”
The long-haired female self-cultivator said to Xiaomei, “You should practice hard and become someone just like Brother Li one day.”
Qingfeng Li, Black Puppy, and Sky-Devouring Snake were extremely powerful and the demonic beasts in Five-Poison City were not their matches at all. They killed all the demonic beasts in their way without mercy and got out of the city in only a moment.
They breathed in deeply as they saw the millions of demonic beasts right in front of them.
The three of them thought it would be one million of them, but it turned out that they were wrong.
There were at least two million demonic beasts, if not more. No wonder the defensive array of the Five-Poison City was not able to hold against their attack.
It would be extremely difficult for them to break it through unless they were level 9 spirit monarch realm masters or Planet Rulers.
Qingfeng Li even suspected there to be more than one Demon Monarchs amongst the two million demonic beasts.
Black Puppy sniffed and told Qingfeng Li, “I just made sure the number of demonic beasts out there. Precisely two million and nine hundred thousand of them – almost three million.”
Sky-Devouring Snake’s face had become stern, “Our enemy is very powerful this time and we must march forward courageously without going back. Because we would be surrounded by countless demonic beasts once we turn back and nothing will save us from being killed by them at that time, no matter how powerful we are.”
Qingfeng Li nodded. “Yes, let us head east together.”
He walked in the front with his Sky-Breaking Halberd, followed by Black Puppy. Sky-Devouring Snake walked in the back. They marched ahead together.
