Chapter 362: Meeting Zhong Jietong Again
Chapter 362: Chapter 362: Meeting Zhong Jietong Again
Shrill, miserable screams from beautiful women echoed throughout the building.
"Well, Miss Zhong Jietong? Isn’t this interesting? How about you marry me and become my concubine? That way, you can escape this fate."
A handsome, blond-haired, blue-eyed Void Demon Viscount took a sip from a glass of Demon Wine as crimson as blood. He then spoke to Zhong Jietong, who was standing beside him. She was wearing a white shirt, a plaid skirt, and black stockings, giving her an air of purity tinged with a hint of allure.
A look of disgust flashed in Zhong Jietong’s eyes as she said coldly, "Alcalado, you perverted Void Demon! I would never marry you and become your concubine! You Void Demons are my mortal enemies. If I ever get the chance, I will slaughter every last one of you! Kill me. I will never be your woman."
Alcalado chuckled. "Haha! Interesting! Zhong Jietong, you truly are an interesting woman. After I capture them, all those other women kneel and beg for their lives. Only you treat me with such disdain. Very interesting!"
Alcalado pointed to a cage off to the side. "How about this? If you agree to marry me and be my concubine, I’ll release these women and spare their lives. What do you say?"
"Save me! Please, Zhong Jietong, please save me! I don’t want to die!"
"Just agree to it, Zhong Jietong! Please! I don’t want to die!"
"..."
Dozens of beautiful Human Race women inside the large iron cage dropped to their knees and pleaded with Zhong Jietong.
The few Ghost-devouring Demon Clan nobles amusing themselves here were exceptionally cruel and enjoyed torturing beautiful women to death. If these Human Race women wanted to live, Viscount Alcalado was their only hope.
Zhong Jietong said icily, "Impossible! The man I love isn’t you. Even if you kill me, I will never marry you."
Alcalado chuckled. "Then who do you love? I’ll go kill him!"
Zhong Jietong said coldly, "He is a great Hero of our Human Race. Compared to him, you’re nothing but scum! He’s a divine dragon in the heavens, and you’re just a useless piece of trash!"
A smile remained on Alcalado’s face as he suddenly reached out and grabbed Zhong Jietong by the neck, lifting her into the air. He said with a grin, "Zhong Jietong, I might like you a little, but you’re too insolent, and I’m growing tired of it. I’ll give you one last chance. Be my woman or die. Choose."
With her neck in his grip, Zhong Jietong’s face contorted in pain. She struggled frantically, but her spirit remained fierce and unyielding, showing no sign of submission.
BANG!
A beam of light shot out like a meteor, instantly striking Alcalado’s head and blasting it to pieces.
"Cough, cough... I’m saved!"
Zhong Jietong fell to the floor, coughing repeatedly. She looked toward the entrance of the hallway, a complicated expression flashing in her eyes. ’It’s him! Shu Feng! He’s the one who saved me!’
At the entrance to the hallway, a handsome, black-haired young man strode forward. It was Shu Feng. By his side followed an incomparably terrifying monster: the Steel Beast.
"A human! Kill him!"
A vicious glint flashed in the eyes of a Ghost-eating Demon Baron. With a fierce roar, he swung his claw at Shu Feng.
The other six Ghost-eating Demon Barons also erupted with terrifying auras, swiping their claws as they charged at Shu Feng.
The Steel Beast standing beside Shu Feng suddenly burst into action. Quick as Lightning, its hands transformed into two Steel Scythes and it slashed down in a frenzy.
Countless terrifying slashes of light shot toward the six Ghost-eating Demon Barons. In an instant, they were sliced into innumerable pieces and scattered across the floor.
An incredibly complex look flashed in Zhong Jietong’s eyes. ’So strong! Six Ghost-eating Demon Barons were easily slain by the monster at his side. He’s gotten even stronger!’
Those six Ghost-eating Demon Barons had been incomparably ferocious. Just one of them had single-handedly slaughtered Zhong Jietong’s entire Spiritualist squad with ease. For such monsters to be so easily slain by the Steel Beast only proved that the creature by Shu Feng’s side was even more terrifying.
"My lord, save me! I’ll do anything for you!"
"Save me! Please, I’m begging you, save me!"
"..."
Seeing Shu Feng, the dozens of Human Race women in the cage began to wail and plead as if they had just seen their savior.
"Quiet!"
Shu Feng’s brow furrowed slightly. A terrifying, Spirit Sect Level Spiritual Pressure erupted from him, blanketing the dozens of Human Race women and making it difficult for them to breathe.
The Steel Beast walked straight over, sliced the iron cages open one by one, and released the Human Race women inside.
"Zhong Jietong, are you all right?"
Shu Feng strode over to Zhong Jietong. He looked at the beautiful young woman, a complicated expression in his eyes.
"I’m fine. Thank you for saving me, Shu Feng!"
A similarly complex look flickered in Zhong Jietong’s eyes. The foolish boy she had once looked down on had actually become an incredible, powerful figure.
The reputation of Shu Feng, Patriarch of the Yuanhai Shu Family, had reached her ears countless times recently, making her realize just what she had missed out on back then.
Shu Feng said, "It’s dangerous here. Stay behind me."
Zhong Jietong replied, "Okay."
Zhong Jietong was a smart girl and knew this was no time to be difficult, so she obediently followed behind Shu Feng.
Shu Feng headed straight for the top of the building. Zhong Jietong followed him, and the dozens of rescued Human Race women followed her, all the way to the top floor.
With each floor they ascended, Shu Feng would release numerous Spiritual Spear Beasts to occupy various firing positions.
"What a wide field of fire!"
With a wave of his hand, Shu Feng summoned twenty Tier Five Spirit Spear Beasts, led by the White Roarers.
"Attack!"
At Shu Feng’s command, two thousand Dragon Hunting Dogs poured out of the building and sped toward the City Lord’s Mansion in Fengmu Territory.
Shu Feng sat upon a throne. His guard was no longer the Steel Beast, but Rabbitmaid Luna. He activated Dominator Mode, linking his consciousness to one of the Dragon Hunting Dogs and acting as a command tower.
"Enemy attack! Enemy attack!"
As soon as the two thousand Dragon Hunting Dogs appeared, they were spotted by the Ghost-devouring Demon Warriors guarding the Lord’s Mansion in Fengmu Territory. One by one, the Ghost-devouring Demon Warriors took cover and fired their Demon Spears continuously at the Dragon Hunting Dogs.
Among the elite warriors of the Devouring Ghost Demon Clan were a number of Divine Gunmen. Even though the Dragon Hunting Dogs were moving at incredible speeds, a dozen or so were still struck by the Devouring Ghost Demon Clan’s Divine Archers. The moment they slowed, they were riddled with holes by a rain of light.
