Chapter 612: Timberdense Flowers (Part 3)

A powerful blade energy instantly descended on one of the early-stage leader-level Devils, the intense light illuminating the entire valley.

The two leader-level Devils were shocked.

Had humans laid an ambush as well?

No, if there had been an ambush, it wouldn’t have taken this long to act.

The other side would have joined forces with the Golden Core cultivator in the valley long ago.

It seemed more likely that this person had passed by, and after hearing the sounds of battle, they decided to intervene.

The two leader-level Devils’ faces turned extremely grim.

They regretted not dealing with Duàn Shaoqing first.

Killing the Golden Core cultivator and then joining forces would have ensured they had nothing to fear from a passing Golden Core cultivator.

They might have even scared them off without a fight.

But now it was too late for regrets.

These thoughts flashed by in less than a second.

The leader-level Devil that was targeted by the blade energy roared in anger.

The next moment, upon seeing something, his expression turned to one of utter terror, reflecting disbelief in the blade light.

The blade light struck him squarely and the powerful sword energy broke through his defenses.

The Devil flew backward and screamed in agony while covered in blood.

He was severely injured in an instant.

Although he’s not dead, he has lost seventy to eighty percent of his combat ability.

The Foundation Building cultivators and the warrior-level Devils were unaware of what had happened.

Could a single strike be this powerful?

Only Duàn Shaoqing and the other leader-level Devil understood clearly.

The injured Devil had inexplicably paused during his defense.

If not for that moment of hesitation, he wouldn’t have been so gravely wounded.

Duàn Shaoqing had not expected the reinforcement he had called upon to be so formidable.

Although he didn’t understand why the Devil’s reaction was so strange, the fact that a leader-level Devil was losing his combat capabilities significantly increased their chances of survival and filled him with excitement.

"Impossible! How could the City Lord’s blade be in the hands of the enemy?" the Devil muttered while clutching his bleeding wound in disbelief.

As a close confidant of the City Lord of Sunshadow City, the Devil was intimately familiar with his weapon.

He couldn’t be mistaken, but he hoped desperately that he was wrong.

The City Lord was a Great Leader-level Devil; how could his weapon fall into the hands of a mere Golden Core cultivator?

Neither the Devils nor Duàn Shaoqing knew that the person who attacked him was Amalia, not Kenny Lin.

In the next second, two shadows darted out of the darkness.

One attacked the other leader-level Devil, while the other charged at the warrior-level Devils.

The latter was Amalia.

The leader-level Devil was entangled by Kenny Lin.

Although they were just one minor level apart, Kenny Lin had slain the City Lord of Sunshadow City and was more than capable of handling a mid-stage leader-level Devil.

With Kenny Lin keeping the leader-level Devil occupied, Amalia moved through the group of Devil effortlessly.

In the blink of an eye, a large number of Devils lay dead or injured, leaving Duàn Shaoqing and his companions in stunned silence.

Where did these two powerhouses come from?

The Devils that had cornered them moments ago were now being decimated.

Despite Amalia’s prowess, she was still only at the Foundation Building stage.

The final outcome depended on the battle between the Golden Core cultivator and the leader-level Devil.

Duàn Shaoqing marveled briefly before turning his anxious gaze to Kenny Lin.

After watching for a while, he couldn’t help but feel puzzled.

"Senior Brother, doesn’t something seem off?"

One of his junior brothers suddenly asked.

"What seems off?" Duàn Shaoqing asked calmly.

The junior brother replied, "This Golden Core cultivator seems to be deliberately avoiding a direct fight. Is he unable to defeat the Devil?"

Duàn Shaoqing, who had noticed this earlier, shook his head, "It doesn’t seem like that. It’s more likely he’s stalling, perhaps waiting for the other person to finish up quickly."

After all, the other leader-level Devil was severely injured but still alive.

In battle, anything could happen.

Everyone’s eyes involuntarily shifted to Amalia.

After carving a bloody path, she finally reached the severely injured leader-level Devil.

Under the Devil’s horrified gaze, she ended his life with a single slash.

The head rolled to the ground.

The nearby warrior-level Devils retreated, and some even began to flee.

With their leader dead, even if they managed to kill all the human cultivators, the benefits that were promised by Zullmoz, the leader of New Moon City, would no longer be distributed.

Staying behind served no purpose and might even result in them being used as cannon fodder.

These Devils, although they were not highly skilled, they were very shrewd.

They wouldn’t engage in a fight without benefits.

As the Devils retreated, Amalia did not pursue them.

The other Devils were also taken aback by her.

Despite being at the Foundation Building stage, she killed the Devils of the same rank with ease, each strike as effortless as slicing a melon.

Her prowess intimidated many of the remaining Devils, but they couldn’t flee with their leader still present; running would mean certain death upon return.

Amalia’s sharp gaze fell on the remaining leader-level Devil as she prepared her finishing move.

Against an opponent whose strength exceeded her own by an entire major realm, the Fourth Gods Blade technique was somewhat challenging for Amalia.

However, with Kenny Lin keeping the Devil occupied, preventing timely defense, she didn’t need to rely on her stacked blade techniques.

As for the Fifth Gods Blade, Amalia currently lacked the strength to execute it.

Otherwise, a single strike would have been impossible for the Devil to withstand.

The leader-level Devil soon noticed Amalia’s actions and grew anxious.

Only after clashing with Kenny Lin did he realize that the human cultivator who had severely injured Anuth, another leader-level Devil, was not the Golden Core cultivator wielding the sword in front of him.
