c701: 696, He Nian, you better seek your own blessings. (2)

Reappearance!

Seeing this scene from afar through the night, He Nian felt a chill in his heart.

"This..."

He knew, this was the skeletal monster that severely injured Long Ye days ago!

Watching it slowly approach him, He Nian couldn’t help but gulp, then respectfully cupped his fists and said: "May I ask, have I offended Your Excellency?"

The Devouring Beast did not speak.

Because it had no mouth.

Instead, Long Ye smirked and said: "Take care, hope you see the sunrise tomorrow morning."

Having said that, Long Ye ran off.

Seeing this, Wen Yan realized his son had arrived, swallowed his panic, and ran backward with Long Yue on his back.

After a few steps, he bumped into Wen Ping.

"Father, are you alright?" Wen Ping approached.

Wen Yan shook his head, then turned to glance at Long Yue on his back and said: "Your aunt has something wrong."

"The injuries aren’t too serious... by the way, where’s Long Ye?" Wen Ping stared at Long Yue, and Zi Ran nearby hastily came forward to take over carrying her on his back.

Wen Ping was not happy now.

He wanted to have a chat with Long Ye.

Let him act as his father’s bodyguard, and yet he let his father fall into danger.

Luckily, he’d come to dine with his father today, otherwise, that claw of He Nian just now, would his father have a chance to survive?

Wen Yan noticed the discontent on Wen Ping’s face, he didn’t want to say anything, only said: "Let’s go to a safe place; your aunt’s condition is quite bad."

Wen Ping did not object, and said to Zi Ran: "Elder Zi Ran, take my father and them back to the inn."

"Sect Leader, what about you?" Zi Ran’s words questioned, but her face was surprised.

Because of just now, Zi Ran was in a state she couldn’t recover from.

The Sect Leader actually summoned a Half-Step Earth Unrestricted skeleton monster.

When hearing the Sect Leader’s spell, she thought he was going to summon Situ Xiuneng again.

But who could have imagined...

"To find a person." Saying that, Wen Ping walked toward another street under the night sky.

"Be care..." Zi Ran initially wanted to say ’be careful,’ but thinking of the Sect Leader’s already mastered control over the Half-Step Earth Unrestricted power, the admonitions seemed unnecessary.

...

Bang!

The Devouring Beast, curled into a ball, descended from the sky, He Nian grabbed the Giant Hammer to intercept, and their first collision set off the battle with He Nian retreating over twenty steps.

Retreating from the collision, He Nian felt the pain from his arm, and a word flashed through his mind: Strong!

At least stronger than Long Ye at his peak!

"Your Excellency Demon King, we had no grievance recently, nor in the past, what are you doing this for?"

He Nian was now bewildered.

Wasn’t this skeletal monster Long Ye’s enemy?

Why suddenly aiding Long Ye now?

As soon as the words fell, the ground beneath stirred.

Stunned, He Nian hurriedly tried to dodge, but just in the time it took to say those words, he had already lost the chance to evade.

The Bone Spike Cage immediately trapped him.

The Devouring Beast opened its massive jaw wide.

Devouring Power, appear!

The Devouring Power suddenly erupted in the cage, like a tide, pressing in from all directions, relentlessly squeezing He Nian.

He Nian originally intended to strike the nearby Bone Spike Cage with his Giant Hammer, knowing the opponent’s next round of attacks would surely follow. But just with that thought, before he could swing the hammer, his entire body was squeezed tightly, unable to move.
