Chapter 235: Chapter 235: Ye Ajian or the Snow Demon King?

Snow Demon King did not run away, but immediately activated the demonic power within its body, unleashing a skill to defend against Ye Wudi’s attack.

Because it knew that fleeing was futile, the black chessboard beneath its feet would still follow.

Its escape would not only be in vain, but it would also render the death of those Demon Beasts futile!

As it activated its demonic power, the blizzard around it began to coalesce, flake by flake gathering into clumps, clump by clump merging into spheres, until finally in front of it, a white, nearly glowing snowball formed!

But just as the light sphere had just successfully condensed, in the blink of an eye, the sound of something piercing the air could be heard, and something indistinct struck right through the center of the light sphere.

Then, the light sphere burst like a balloon, the condensed blizzard collapsing into energy, scattering in all directions.

The powerful energy exploded the black chessboard as well, the corpses of Demon Beasts that had been piled upon it were like they had been thrown into a meat grinder, instantly blown apart, none intact.

At the same time, before the explosion occurred, a gaping chest wound appeared on the Snow Demon King, seemingly also penetrated by the previous unknown object.

The wound ran from the chest to the back, pierced straight through, with its writhing organs visible!

Immediately after, as energy blasted outwards, Snow Demon King at the very center, was unsurprisingly blown away. Like being struck by a giant pendulum, its flight was exceptionally swift and decisive.

After drawing a beautiful arc through the air tinted with blood, it heavily crashed onto the ground.

Boom!

The accumulated snow on the ground was smashed into a nearly twenty-meter-wide circular deep pit by its fall!

Then, the moment it landed, the Demon Beasts swarmed around the pit, surrounding the Snow Demon King lying at the center.

Baring their teeth at Ye Wudi and the others, they protected their king!

Ye Wudi looked over, the Snow Demon King was lying limp at the center of the pit.

At this moment, it had shed the blizzard that cloaked its exterior, revealing its true appearance!

It was a Demon Beast covered in white fur, roughly human-like in body shape but a bit more rugged.

Its limbs had paws like bear claws, and it had a long white tail like that of a monkey protruding from its rear.

Atop its head was a tuft of dark grayish-white fur, which spread down its neck, down its spine, all the way to the tail, giving it a somewhat dashing and spirited look.

However, given its ugly face, it instead appeared rather fierce.

Its facial features were as dark as those of a gorilla, with two eyes deeply sunken as if they had been punched into sockets.

Its nose was raised high, and its mouth bore eight sharp fangs of varying lengths, four each on top and bottom, looking extremely ferocious!

Additionally, there were white barbs growing along its arms!

Overall, the Snow Demon King looked like a mutated giant gorilla.

Ye Wudi, looking at the Snow Demon King lying at the center of the pit, bloodied and in a sorry state, without any resistance left, did not show a shred of pity in his eyes.

With a gesture of his hand, the Azure Water Cold Light Sword appeared in his grasp.

Then came the moment to deliver the final deathblow!

But at that moment, a voice suddenly rang out, "Stop!"

Turning his head, it was Huang Yuan!

He had arrived with the First Army Corps.

Ye Wudi, upon hearing his voice, naturally wouldn’t stop. Now was the best opportunity, if he lost this chance, it would be extremely difficult to kill the Snow Demon King later on.

Even if he gave it enough breathing room, once its strength returned to its peak, the entire Northern City would be doomed!

Hence, Ye Wudi did not hesitate. The Azure Water Cold Light Sword releasing a cold chill, was about to shoot out!

But at this moment, a sentence from Huang Yuan made him forcibly stop in his tracks.

"Ye Wudi, if you dare to act, I guarantee your son will die before your eyes first!"

Ye Wudi whirled around and shockingly found his son, Ye Ajian, in Huang Yuan’s hands!

He instantly did not dare to move.

"Huang Yuan, you’re fucking crazy, using my son’s life to protect a Demon Beast? Do you realize what it is? It’s the Snow Demon King!"

Huang Yuan looked at his furious demeanour and coldly chuckled with indifference, "Of course I know it’s the Snow Demon King. You heard me right; I intend to exchange your son’s life for its life!"

Hearing him say so, Ye Wudi, thinking of the strange occurrences lately, seemed to guess something.

"Was it you who released the Snow Demon King?"

"Yes." Huang Yuan actually admitted it openly.

Ye Wudi’s pupils dilated, his chest heaving with violent breaths, but he still suppressed his rage, "For what? Just for Northern Town? The title of a General of Northern Town?"

"Not entirely." Huang Yuan said calmly.

His family’s power was inferior to the Ye Family; even if he took over Northern City, at most, he would get the title of General of Northern Town. The actual power and influence he would gain were far from comparable to an established great family like Ye Wudi’s.

His influence was also mostly limited to Northern City.

Moreover, Northern City was a city of danger, which could be overrun by a surge of Demon Beasts at any moment!

Therefore, if it was just for the title of Northern City, Huang Yuan did not need to take this risk.

"Then what is it for?" Ye Wudi pressed.

However, Huang Yuan did not answer his question this time, "You don’t need to concern yourself with that. Now that your son Ye Ajian is in my hands, you make the choice, okay?"

At this moment, the battlefield also fell eerily quiet.

Due to the Snow Demon King’s severe injuries, all the Demon Beasts had surrounded the Snow Demon King, and because of Huang Yuan’s intervention, no command to attack was issued by the Snow Demon King.

And Ye Wudi’s people, although they didn’t know what had happened, seeing the first legion’s ferocious and murderous approach, they also knew that the situation was not good.

The three parties fell into a temporary calm.

Ye Wudi’s hands hesitated, his gaze solemn.

Looking at Ye Ajian with a knife at his neck, he was at a loss as to what to do; on one side was the safety of the city, on the other was his son’s life.

This would be a difficult choice for anyone!

"Dad, don’t worry about me, I’m just a waste, saving me is meaningless. If my life can exchange for the safety of Northern City, then I wouldn’t have disgraced the Ye Family’s honor!"

At this moment, Ye Ajian shouted at Ye Wudi.

His words were not without reason; the life of a "waste" in exchange for the safety of an entire city was obviously a good deal!

Moreover, as a General protecting a region, Ye Wudi should know better what to choose.

But, could he truly make such a heartless decision?
