Chapter 466: Chapter 366: He Doesn’t Need Reminders_1

"You idiot, I’ve paid a heavy price to learn this," the Wolf God’s deep voice contained a powerful rage. "Or are you planning to take action now and, after both are injured, let a new Supreme Demon take advantage and clean up the mess?"

"Just because of your nonsense, I should let my sons and grandsons die?!" The Bull God slammed the table and roared angrily. "I want that human girl!"

A swift and undisguised shadow passed in the Wolf God’s eyes. "Very well, but the collaborator will go to..."

"No, no, no, I want half of the collaborator too, and I want first pick," the Bull God immediately interrupted the Wolf God. As someone who could stand toe-to-toe with the Battle Maniac Asura, although he was defeated by him in the past, it proved the other’s potential. Such a person was definitely not someone he would overlook.

"You’re too greedy!" The Wolf God glared at the Bull God furiously.

"What’s wrong with taking more when I’m about to sacrifice these servants?" The Bull God sneered back at the Wolf God, knowing that the latter did not come to help but to divert trouble. The Bull God was aware of this, but there are things one must confront regardless of such influences.

The situation that forced the Wolf God to flee here in such a sorry state was indeed not to be underestimated. Cooperation was inevitable. During this period, all Supreme Demons were very cautious. The Wolf God was not among the weakest in their ranks; even if crippled, he was still competitive in terms of development after the war in Hell began.

Such a Supreme Demon choosing to avoid direct confrontation meant that if enemies came knocking, his side would not be in a good position either. Better to warm up for battle—since the Wolf God came with ill intent, it was better than looking for other Supreme Demons. After all, taking the initiative meant putting oneself in a weaker position.

Hours later, the Bull God, surveying the distance, had many eyes within Hell. Upon reaching his domain, the Bull God immediately detected Zheng Yichen’s traces. This has to be the shabbiest Supreme Demon hunt in history—just six people? Who are they underestimating?

To be slighted by any Supreme Demon.

But of those six, four could be outright ignored; it was the remaining two that were the main course.

The Bull God didn’t bother to conceal his trace. The Wolf God had provided plenty of intelligence, and it was impossible to hide from Zheng Yichen’s eyes. Instead of skulking around, it was better to face them head-on and ’welcome’ them.

"They’re well-prepared; we won’t go over," said Yi Nan, noticing the Bull Demons’ army ready for battle in the distance, and he immediately stopped and informed Zheng Yichen.

"Be careful," said Zheng Yichen as he rushed towards the army of Bull Demons. As he got close, his fishing rod was covered with black material, and a blood-colored dragon shadow appeared on the black spear, which, accompanying his charge, pierced through the Bull Demons’ first line of defense like a bamboo splitting.

When facing a Supreme Demon who was well-prepared, going for a head-on battle was the way to go.

Countless Bull Demons were torn apart by the dragon shadow, their blood evaporated by the attacks infused with the Blood Asura inner force, and the pungent blood vapor converged towards Zheng Yichen. Liu Hongzhao was about to make a move, but Zheng Yichen immediately said, "Be careful, there is some kind of curse on these Bull-headed creatures."

While speaking, Zheng Yichen took out a new Amulet from his motorcycle and handed it to Liu Hongzhao. Every time he left the house, Katrina would give him many Amulets. Blessing Protective Amulet and Refuge Protective Amulet both had extra resistance against curses.

"Your curse is useless now," the Wolf God said with a grin, watching Zheng Yichen slaughtering through the Bull Demon army, and spoke to the Bull God beside him.

The Bull God was extremely robust, one of the most imposing figures among the Supreme Demons, resembling a brute. However, what he excelled in was not just close combat; he was also very adept with curses. He wasn’t sly, but being straightforward had little to do with the power he wielded.

He specifically sought out the Bull God for this reason; the Bull God wasn’t very bright but enjoyed cruelty and torture. Although he wasn’t as capable at scheming as other Supreme Demons, he dedicated part of his efforts to mastering curses, an art not meant for explicitly killing.

But to make life worse than death.

If he couldn’t win with plots, he’d use curses.

Since Zheng Yichen could absorb blood, and Liu Hongzhao could use the blood to summon the Demonic Abyss Seven Kills with the aid of external forces, it was necessary to counteract their kind of power with a curse.

The Wolf God wanted a scapegoat. If the Supreme Demon hunt actually managed to kill a Supreme Demon, the rest would naturally band together without any additional effort. He wouldn’t have to pay any price afterwards; on the contrary, because he had fought Zheng Yichen twice, he could benefit all the more....

However, that was just one option; if possible, he would prefer to kill the Supreme Demon hunter right there.

It seemed, though, that the Bull God’s curse had little effect. Despite being targeted by the curse, Zheng Yichen went on a rampage, seemingly unaffected, while Liu Hongzhao held back quite a bit, obviously wary of the power of the curse.

The human girl, however, hadn’t grown strong enough, and coming forward was practically a giveaway. The Bull God’s curse wasn’t specifically targeted at Liu Hongzhao, and even if she used the Demonic Abyss Seven Kills with the Supreme Demon Weapon, they would pose a significant threat to the current Supreme Demons—but that’s only one-on-one.

In a two-on-one fight, there’d be no threat at all. The key was still Zheng Yichen.

"You underestimate my curse!" Offended by the belittlement of his professional domain, the Bull God snorted in contempt. The Bull Demons obstructing Zheng Yichen underwent a new transformation, roaring fiercely as conspicuous demonic patterns emerged on their bodies, charging at Zheng Yichen with even more reckless abandon.

Their charge was no longer an act of combat but a deliberate rush to death. Any Bull Demon that drew close to Zheng Yichen was torn to shreds by the blood dragon, and Zheng Yichen leaped from the motorcycle, "You drive!"

As he spoke, Zheng Yichen had already distanced himself from Liu Hongzhao. He ’saw’ something unusual; the curse’s effect on him was limited. It wasn’t that he could ignore curses but rather that the energy membrane around him had strong energy resistance, and a curse was a type of special energy influence.

While the energy membrane was present, curses had difficulty reaching him; however, when the transformed Bull Demons were slain, the curse power rebounding from their deaths caused splashes of energy. He was temporarily unaffected, but some of the curse power could splash towards Liu Hongzhao. Even now, with the Refuge Protective Amulet’s barrier allowing her to temporarily resist the curse, the accumulation of minor effects could become significant if the two were too close—Liu Hongzhao would have to endure a double dose of the curse’s power.

How did the fleeing Wolf God find such a disgusting thing?

"Energy monitoring has been initiated. Please replace with a new Refuge Protective Amulet within six minutes," Lilith’s hologram appeared on the motorcycle’s dashboard screen, and a non-intrusive projection screen popped up before Liu Hongzhao’s eyes, displaying a countdown.

Liu Hongzhao was somewhat surprised by the countdown accurate to the millisecond.

She was familiar with such countdowns but hadn’t expected Brother Chang Qing’s motorcycle to have such precise monitoring capabilities.

After slaying two approaching Bull Demons with her sword, she glanced at the projection screen again, where the milliseconds ticking down swiftly decreased by two notches from the minute and second counters.

As for the decrease in milliseconds, it was due to the continuous curse effect brought about by the environment. When the Bull Demons were killed, the curses they carried reverberated back, causing the protective power of her amulets to rapidly diminish.

However, armed with such an accurate counter, Liu Hongzhao quickened her pace. The motorcycle was Brother Chang Qing’s, and she naturally trusted the information displayed on it.

Based on the current countdown, she could slay thousands of Bull Demons. As long as the curse power was intercepted, she could continuously draw blood energy to greatly amplify her attacks. But while drawing blood energy, Liu Hongzhao noticed the countdown’s pace suddenly accelerate.

Something was amiss, so Liu Hongzhao asked, "...Is this monitor accurate?"

"The accuracy rate is 99.9%," Lilith, clad in a black dress, looked at Liu Hongzhao calmly, her red eyes glimmering faintly as if unaffected by the doubt, "The detected curse power is continuously intensifying, and the possibility of an explosion due to the curse cannot be disregarded. Please ensure a new amulet is on hand within two minutes to prevent the protective barrier from being breached."

A storage compartment popped open on one side of the motorcycle, neatly lined with rows of the same type of amulets.

Liu Hongzhao promptly grabbed two and hung them on herself. Then she saw the countdown’s maximum time on the projection screen change to twenty minutes, but the pace at which the time reduced remained unchanged. It was apparent that stacking the same protective amulets would not enhance the strength of the protection; it simply made the shield thicker.

This was still good news. With ample time, Liu Hongzhao’s speed of killing soared, every swing of her sword unleashing a blood wind explosion. The chaotic wind from the explosion was fatally harmful, and the approaching Bull Demons fell like harvested wheat.

Yet, Liu Hongzhao knew these Bull Demons were mere cannon fodder and wouldn’t deplete her strength, but they would continue to bring the curse along with them.

When facing a durable opponent, to prevent cannon fodder from becoming mobile blood packs, giving them a little something extra could make a substantial difference.

Liu Hongzhao had encountered those with poison before, but this was her first time facing a widespread curse. It made her realize her limitations; to better combat the Supreme Demon, she would need to enrich her methods more comprehensively.

High endurance made cannon fodder with venom or curses a factor that could influence or restrain others, and beings like the Supreme Demon often didn’t exist alone—they could cooperate and possess thousands of minions.

"Anomalies detected ahead, please avoid," Lilith’s voice rang out, prompting Liu Hongzhao to turn the motorcycle without hesitation, steering clear of the area they were about to pass through, which Zheng Yichen had just cleared. She had planned to quickly traverse that area but didn’t expect problems to arise.

"Is this how you cooperate with Brother Chang Qing during battles?" she asked after slaying another approaching Bull Demon, looking to understand more about Zheng Yichen.

"With the boss, there is no need for evasion or additional prompts."

"..." Liu Hongzhao fell silent for a moment, sensing the stark disparity while growing more confident in Zheng Yichen’s abilities. Brother Chang Qing, even if fighting alone for a long time, wouldn’t be too much at risk, right?

She looked in Zheng Yichen’s direction, where a green aura surrounded him. Enormous amounts of curse power swirled around him, but they were persistently unable to break through his blood-colored energy membrane. Once the accumulated curse power reached a certain threshold, an eerie green flame ignited, burning away all the gathered curse power.

At that moment, she also received a warning from Lilith—
