Chapter 668: The Devils Is Coming (Part 1)

The Crystal-Eyed Mink was unwilling; it was no match for the Black Star Beast.

Although it was also the guarding demonic beast near the spiritual vein, the Black Star Beast had taken over its territory, forcing it to flee.

To have it face the Black Star Beast was essentially a death sentence, and the Crystal-Eyed Mink was even less inclined to act.

"If you’re unwilling, then die!"

The young man with the surname Wan was enraged.

This damn Crystal-Eyed Mink had its life in his hands and still dared to resist him.

He swiftly approached the Crystal-Eyed Mink, grabbed it, and threw it toward the Black Star Beast.

At the same time, he activated the slave contract on his thoughts, causing the Crystal-Eyed Mink to self-destruct instantly.

The Crystal-Eyed Mink’s self-destruction didn’t harm the Black Star Beast but effectively hindered its actions.

A small golden sword appeared in front of the young man with the surname Wan.

He looked at the sword with pain, as he had intended to save it for later.

However, to his dismay, he now had to use it on this demonic beast.

The Black Star Beast instantly sensed a tremendous threat.

Its enormous eyes spotted the small golden sword and immediately turned around to flee.

"Thinking of running now? It’s too late!" The young man with the surname Wan, filled with fury, declared, "You should have run earlier or not at all."

The small golden sword transformed into a streak of golden light, shooting toward the Black Star Beast.

Just as the demonic beast raised its defenses, the golden sword pierced through its head.

The Black Star Beast in the air stiffened momentarily before plummeting to the ground beside the spiritual pool.

The aura around the young man with the surname Wan visibly waned.

"Hahaha."

A long, mocking laugh suddenly came from behind them.

Before the young man with the surname Wan could even catch his breath or enjoy his spoils, his face changed instantly as he turned his head to look in the direction of the voice.

When he saw the group of Devils that had appeared behind him, his face turned not only pale but also showed a hint of deep fear within his eyes.

There were four Devils who had arrived and the highest-ranked among them being about on par with him.

However, on their side, one was dead, one was severely injured, and the remaining one was him.

That last sword strike had nearly drained all his spiritual energy, leaving him with very little ability to fight.

"Thank you for dealing with that Black Star Beast for us. Otherwise, we would have had to put in quite a bit of effort to handle it ourselves."

The late stage Leader-level Devil who lead the group laughed proudly, reveling in the pleasure of reaping the rewards effortlessly.

The three young Devils beside him also understood and laughed heartily, their laughter filling the air and causing the severely injured young disciples of Artifact Refining Valley to tremble in fear.

"In order to show my gratitude, I can make your death a little bit more comfortable."

The leader of the young Devils laughed heartily.

"Are you trying to go against Artifact Refining Valley?"

The young man with the surname Wan tried to conceal his panic and said coldly.

"Artifact Refining Valley?" The young Devil was taken aback, and then a look of surprise appeared on his face, "So you’re from Artifact Refining Valley? In that case, you must have a lot of artifacts on you."

The name of Artifact Refining Valley was well known to these Devils.

However, their understanding of Artifact Refining Valley was that its disciples produced a large number of artifacts.

To them, killing an Artifact Refining Valley disciple meant acquiring a lot of artifacts.

Seeing that the four Devils were not intimidated by the name of Artifact Refining Valley but instead, their eyes became even more fervent, the young man with the surname Wan finally showed a look of panic.

"What are you trying to say? Aren’t you afraid that Artifact Refining Valley will come after you for revenge?"

"What’s Artifact Refining Valley? Even if the sword cultivators of Green Lotus Sect were here, I wouldn’t be afraid."

The young Devil spoke arrogantly.

In the shadows, the two sword and blade cultivators of Green Lotus Sect raised their brows at the Devils’ arrogance.

The young man with the surname Wan took a deep breath and suddenly shouted, "Run!"

After shouting, he shot off like a bolt of lightning, not intending to fight the Devils but to escape in the opposite direction.

Unbeknownst to him, the Devils had already been prepared and almost moved simultaneously as he did.

The severely injured disciple from Artifact Refining Valley had no ability to resist and was quickly killed by the Devils.

The young man with the surname Wan was caught and entangled by the late-stage leader-level Devil, and by the time the other three arrived, he was like a fish in a barrel.

The devils were not in a hurry to kill the young man with the surname Wan.

The leader of the young devils waited for the other three to arrive, and once they did, they began to toy with him like cats with a mouse.

They attacked him continuously, leaving scars all over his body without killing him immediately, their intentions were clear as day.

Soon, his body was covered in blood.

He roared in defiance, having struggled to kill the Black Star Beast, only to now become prey for the devils.

He was furious, yet helpless, the fear in his eyes undiminished.

"Beg me, and I might spare your life," the leader of the young devils suggested, seeming to notice something and suddenly ceasing his attack.

As he stopped, the other devils also halted.

They all looked at him mockingly, their malicious intentions and enjoyment of his plight evident in their eyes.

The young man with the surname Wan, bleeding profusely and at the end of his strength, knew he was doomed.
