Shortly after the demon's secret bases began to be purged, the news quickly spread to other bases because one of them had contacted their headquarters.
"Royal Son-in-law, my people reported that the demons had contacted their headquarters and informed them of our siege. Shall we continue the attack?" Dan-Ge reported to Zheng-Fu and sought guidance on the next plan.
"Order everyone to return after they've dealt with those secret bases. Now that the opponents know we're coming, they must be well-prepared. With our smaller numbers, it would be difficult to handle them if they're ready for us."
Zheng-Fu shook his head slightly, telling Dan-Ge that it would be unwise to continue the assault because the demons might be bracing themselves. Although Zheng-Fu wasn't afraid of entering the base alone, he did not want to take unnecessary risks.
Breaking into a secret base and destroying it too quickly could lead to worse consequences. However, remaining idle wasn't ideal either, as the demons might flee or adjust their plans.
There were two ways to address this issue: first, seek help from his father-in-law, which could turn this peaceful night into one of bloodshed; or second, handle the remaining secret bases himself with Dan-Ge, as only he had the skills to camouflage and infiltrate effectively to eliminate all demons.
"I guess I'll have to do it myself. It's time to show my father-in-law just how talented his son-in-law is. Tonight, I'll prove myself!" Finally, Zheng-Fu made his decision on which method to choose, and the method he selected was to handle the situation by himself.
"Master Dan-Ge, lead everyone to lie in wait in front of their headquarters base. Keep an eye on them so that no one can escape. I trust you can handle this!" Zheng-Fu instructed Dan-Ge before heading to the other secret bases.
"Yes, sir, Royal Son-in-law. I'll personally oversee the headquarters base!" Dan-Ge nodded and responded without questioning Zheng-Fu's reasoning.
After separating from Dan-Ge, Zheng-Fu headed toward the nearest secret base. The first one was just a few streets away. Within this base, the highest-level martial masters were only at the fourth level of the Divine Emperor stage, while the others were at the advanced Immortal Soul stage.
Zing!!! Zing!!!
"This is the place? Hmm! They've prepared quite well," Zheng-Fu smirked slyly as he sensed the demons stationed at various points within the old building in front of him. They had divided their forces, setting traps and attack spells for anyone who invaded. But those preparations were for someone else, not Zheng-Fu.
"Damn monsters! You dared to invade and kill our brothers while they were unprepared. How vile!"
"That's right! Just wait and see. When they come in here, I'll trigger the spell and attack them immediately!"
"If there's a girl among them, I'll catch her and have some fun!"
The demons assigned to guard the upper area were busy badmouthing the group of skilled masters who had ambushed them while they were off guard, using all sorts of insults without reflecting on themselves. However, as these demons were intently focused on the arrival of the skilled masters, an unfamiliar voice suddenly rang out...
"But doing that isn't good, comrade!"
"Huh!?"
Slash!!! Thud!!!
The first demon turned toward the voice, only to see a handsome, blue-faced young man smiling at him. Before he could respond, he felt a chill on his neck. As his vision swirled, he saw a headless figure standing next to the young man—his own body.
"Someone… someone… someone's invaded…"
Slash!!! Slash!!! Slash!!!
With Zheng-Fu's superior speed, dozens of demons guarding the area were killed so swiftly that they couldn't cry out for help. In less than half an incense stick's time, all the demons upstairs lay dead.
"How long has it been since I've massacred this many people? Oh no, they're not people—a horde of freak beings is more accurate. Wait… they're demons, so let's call them a horde of freak demons!" Zheng-Fu grinned evilly. Typically, he didn't handle large groups personally, as he commanded from behind the scenes. But this time, he relished the chance to deal with so many creatures himself.
"It's been a long time since I've killed with my own hands. All right! There are still plenty more below. Today, let's play a bloody song!" Finishing his words, Zheng-Fu opened the door to the secret base and headed downstairs without hiding or using his camouflage skills.
Zing!!! Slash!!! Slash!!! Slash!!!
"Aaaaah!!! No!!!!!!"
"Devil… Devil from hell!"
Ah!!!
The agonizing screams that sent chills down the spine echoed continuously after Zheng-Fu descended into the secret base. Once inside, Zheng-Fu began his slaughter of the demons using his Aquatic Dragon Sword. Initially, the sword had a beautiful silver-blue hue, but after Zheng-Fu had killed hundreds of demons, his Aquatic Dragon Sword turned a terrifying blood-red color.
Slash!!!
Argh!!!
"No matter how skilled you are, a weak rat like you can't defeat our Demon Emperor! Soon, the Demon Emperor will arrive with an army of terrifying demons, making the heavens cry, to crush your Monster Kingdom!" the leader of the secret base, at the Divine Emperor stage, shouted angrily before succumbing to his wounds.
Thud!!!
"Tch! I, Zheng-Fu, don't care how powerful your Demon Emperor is. If anyone dares to attack my lover or family, that person will die like a pig, a dog, or a worm beneath my feet!" Zheng-Fu sneered at the demon's lifeless body, unbothered by its final words. He knew well that his abilities were not inferior to those of the Demon Emperor.
After dealing with this base, Zheng-Fu proceeded to the next. He systematically wiped out all the remaining secret bases. By now, his entire body was covered in the blood of demons, making him look like a terrifying devil from hell.
Back at the demons' headquarters base…
"I received a response from the great commander. He instructed us to begin preparations and ordered us to open a dimensional gate here. Once the gate is successfully connected, he will bring reinforcements to join us!" one of the strongest generals in the headquarters base spoke, looking worried.
"So we should contact the other secret bases to prepare for action. If we delay, they could be wiped out. If not for the tighter spells at our headquarters, they might have already invaded here!" Another demon added angrily.
"Indeed, the spell here is stronger and more complex than the others, but that doesn't mean the enemy can't enter. If they can break the spells at the other bases, they could do the same here!"
"What's our next move? We're all cultivators at the Divine Emperor stage, and we're more than a hundred strong. We won't be easy to deal with!"
"Let them come in. I'll crush them with my own hands!"
"Ha ha ha! I'll make a goblet from their skulls to drink their blood!"
"I'll take their fingers to make my necklaces!"
"BUT I'LL USE YOU ALL TO CONCOCT MEDICINES!!!"
Huh…?
While the demons boasted arrogantly, an unfamiliar voice echoed. As they looked for its source, their eyes locked on a young man standing in the center of their group.
"Human!? No, a human-like monster? Or a monster-like human!?"
"Whatever he is, if he's not one of us and came in here, he's an intruder!"
"Ha ha ha! Too late to realize. You guys are slow-brained!"
Woooosh!!!
Slash!!! Slash!!! Slash!!!
Thud!!! Thud!!! Thud!!!
With just one swing of his sword, Zheng-Fu beheaded dozens of initial Divine Emperor stage demons before they could react or fight back.
"You!!! You bastard!" a demon screamed frantically after recovering from the shock. He unleashed all his energy waves and charged at Zheng-Fu, seeking revenge for his comrades.
The demon's shout brought the rest of the demons back to their senses. They all rushed to attack Zheng-Fu simultaneously.
"Whatever you are, today I'll chop you into ten thousand pieces to avenge my comrades!"
"Foolish bastard! Do you think you alone can defeat all of us? Die!!!"
"Next year today will be the anniversary of your death!"
"Pray for a blessing, little bastard!"
All the demons that rushed in cursed and swore at Zheng-Fu fiercely and with intense anger. They were high-ranking members of their demon tribe, and many other demons had to show them respect and reverence. With Zheng-Fu invading their base and killing so many of their comrades, how could they possibly keep their anger in check?
Huh!!!
"Come at me! I can't wait to use all of you to concoct medicines!!!"
Zheng-Fu showed no expression of fear or concern despite being attacked by such a large number of demons. To him, their bodies were all valuable ingredients for making medicine. Thus, in Zheng-Fu's eyes, these demons were more like raw materials than actual enemies.
