The Eerie Shadow Demon

Gu Qingfeng looked around in surprise, noticing that the room was still the same, but it seemed to be shrouded in a faint shadow.

The slight sense of spatial disconnection confirmed for him that this was the Yin Domain.

Such a rare Yin Domain, was it really so worthless in the hands of the Seven Demon Generals?

In fact, when the system alerted him to the Shadow Demon's attack, Gu Qingfeng had already figured out Hong Li's identity.

She was the second-in-command that the Mirror Demon had been trying to eliminate.

The Mirror Demon's replication ability was already ridiculously powerful, yet it ranked third. One could only imagine the strength of the Shadow Demon.

Thinking about how the Shadow Demon was even more formidable, Gu Qingfeng felt even more excited.

His trip to Black Water Village had been the biggest harvest since his transmigration. Now, facing the Shadow Demon, he wondered what benefits he might gain.

As Gu Qingfeng pondered, Hong Li, aka the Shadow Demon, made her move.

Without a word, she seemed to teleport, disappearing from her original spot.

Gu Qingfeng's pupils contracted as he thought, "What incredible speed! My eyes can't even catch it."

Where is she?

He looked around but couldn't find any trace of the Shadow Demon.

Suddenly, his instincts warned him!

A faint killing intent emanated from behind.

Without thinking, Gu Qingfeng instantly drew his blade, the Yanling Blade piercing through his armpit toward his back.

There was no sensation of the blade cutting flesh, only the feeling of slicing through air.

Just as Gu Qingfeng was about to change his move, a massive force struck his back.

Boom!

Gu Qingfeng took the hit head-on, but protected by his Invincible Golden Body, a brilliant golden light shone, and he remained unharmed.

At the same time, the cold, mechanical voice of the system sounded.

Ding!

Host has been attacked by the Shadow Demon.

Shadow Attribute +100

Shadow Attribute? Gu Qingfeng frowned, puzzled.

The next moment, he spun around and slashed. Hong Li smirked, lightly tapping her toes on the ground, her body drifting back like a willow catkin, narrowly dodging the blade that grazed her neck.

Gu Qingfeng's strike missed, but he wasn't about to stop.

He immediately rotated his Yanling Blade, adjusting the angle, and slashed downward with full force. Simultaneously, he pushed off the ground with his feet, his muscles tightening like a leaping leopard, propelling himself toward Hong Li.

Facing this slash that seemed intent on splitting her in half, Hong Li remained composed. With a light tap of her toes, her feet seemed to glide like she was on roller skates, her body swiftly retreating.

One pursued, the other retreated.

Yet, Hong Li's speed was slightly superior.

Gu Qingfeng's blade sliced through the air, but there was always that one centimeter distance between the blade and Hong Li, untouchable.

Just as it seemed she would narrowly escape, missing the blade by a hair's breadth, Gu Qingfeng suddenly extended his left hand, which wasn't holding the blade, and slammed it onto the hilt of the blade in his right hand.

That one slap caused the blade to shoot forward, extending the attack range by a few inches!

Hong Li was slightly startled, not expecting Gu Qingfeng to have this trick up his sleeve. Gazing at the extended blade shadow, her pupils contracted to pinpricks. She mustered all her strength, trying to retreat further, but at this moment, her old strength was spent, and her new strength hadn't yet emerged. How could she retreat at all?

Swish!

The blade flashed like lightning.

Hong Li's nose, from the very tip in the center, was split into two halves.

Each side had a nostril, with a deep, bone-exposing knife mark in the middle.

However, there was no blood in the mark, only endless rolling black shadows.

Gu Qingfeng frowned: "Did you get promoted to second-in-command through some shady backdoor? You don't seem as strong as the Mirror Demon."

Hong Li smiled, but with her nose split in two, even the most beautiful smile looked terrifying.

"Oh dear, it seems I've been underestimated by my dear brother. In that case, let your sister show you some real skills."

With that, Hong Li raised her delicate hands to her face, grabbing each half of her nose with one hand, and then pulling with both hands from the center.

Like zipping up a zipper.

A beautiful human skin was torn off, revealing a shadowy human form.

Its entire body was made of shadows, vaguely showing facial features, but critical parts were invisible.

Hong Li's current appearance reminded Gu Qingfeng of his childhood nightmare, the murderer in Detective Conan, who, before being caught, always appeared as a shadowy figure.

"How about it, my dear brother? Do you like your sister's new look?" The Shadow Demon giggled.

However, the voice it emitted had changed. It was no longer the soft, sweet voice from before, but a horribly distorted overlapping voice.

As if a man and a woman were screaming hysterically at the same time.

Gu Qingfeng's face turned ashen, like he had just swallowed a fly.

"Are you a man or a woman?"

"My dear brother, do you think shadows have genders?"

"Ugh..."

Gu Qingfeng couldn't help but gag. He suddenly remembered all the sweet moments they had shared before, the flowers under the moonlight, the drinking songs, the cool dances...

His stomach churned.

"You're dead! Shadow Demon!"

Gu Qingfeng was truly disgusted, to the point where he didn't even want to gain attributes anymore, he just wanted to cut the Shadow Demon down with one strike.

Now he finally understood why the Mirror Demon had called the Shadow Demon a fool. If the Shadow Demon had really been a female demon, the Mirror Demon would have called it a bitch, not a fool.

"One Word Blazing Sun Sword!"

Gu Qingfeng attacked in anger, unleashing his killing move. The Wood King Sword, which had been upgraded to a Intermediate Earth Grade Spiritual Weapon, was in his hand, slashing fiercely!

A pale, thin line cut through the air, heading straight for the Shadow Demon.

The Shadow Demon, seeing this, didn't dodge or evade, just stood still, waiting for the sword energy to hit.

The next second!

Swish!

The Shadow Demon was bisected by the One Word Blazing Sun Sword, but shockingly, black mist swirled around its waist, instantly healing the wound.

Gu Qingfeng was momentarily stunned, finding it unbelievable.

His most powerful move had failed to harm the Shadow Demon at all?

If the sword energy couldn't hurt it, that was one thing, but the sword energy was infused with highly condensed Bone Demon Fire. How could even the fire fail to burn it?
