Finally, he arrived!
Faced with the appearance of this figure, Chen Shuo was overwhelmed with indescribable emotions.
It had been so long, but he finally appeared.
"Chen Shuo, you've done well. Leave the rest to me."
Demon King Xiao Mingchen let out a cold laugh. During his time in hiding, he had prepared a foolproof strategy.
He knew well that a Demon King was no match for a Legendary Demon Hunter, so even though Chen Shuo's sneak attack had succeeded,
He didn't appear immediately. He wanted Chen Shuo to wear down Xu Changjun's strength.
To turn the battle into a war of attrition - only this way did he have a chance.
Of course, this alone wasn't enough. He never fought battles he wasn't sure of winning. As soon as Demon King Xiao Mingchen finished speaking, he waved his hand, and a teleportation array appeared beside him.
The next moment, the barrier space that originally held only three people was suddenly filled with several dozen high-level vampires.
No, to be precise, these were all Half Ghost King vampires. The intense bloody smell emanating from them made even Chen Shuo frown involuntarily.
These people, no, these vampires didn't actually have the strength of Half Ghost Kings.
But for Demon King Xiao Mingchen to achieve his goal, he had used a blood demon secret technique on these vampires.
It forcibly enhanced the vampires' strength, but using this method to increase power would greatly burn away their lifespans.
Once they exceeded the time they could endure, they would die on the spot.
This was an extremely evil and vicious method. Although Chen Shuo despised vampires, Demon King Xiao Mingchen's actions disgusted him even more.
Using the lives of his own kind as stepping stones for his own success was something Chen Shuo found contemptible.
"Legendary Demon Hunter, I've never slain a Legendary Demon Hunter before. Do you think if I drink the blood of a Legendary Demon Hunter, I might enter that legendary Demon Saint realm? How exciting!"
Demon King Xiao Mingchen could barely contain his excitement. This was the moment he had been waiting for.
Once he took down the Legendary Demon Hunter and drank his blood, it would surely bring him an enormous boost.
As long as he achieved the Demon Saint realm, he would be the strongest being in the world.
What did it matter if Chen Shuo was highly talented? Once he broke through, he would end Chen Shuo's life on the spot.
With these fantasies in mind, Demon King Xiao Mingchen waved his hand: "All of you, attack!"
Dozens of Half Ghost King vampires surged forward upon receiving the order. Faced with such an astonishing number, even Xu Changjun, as a Legendary Demon Hunter, had to become serious.
He chanted rapidly, drawing light circles with his left hand and quickly creating defensive shield symbols with his right, combining the two to counter everything.
The impact of dozens of Half Ghost Kings was truly terrifying. Although Xu Changjun was incredibly powerful, he seemed somewhat flustered under the assault of dozens.
While he managed to destroy more than a dozen, Xu Changjun's body also began to show some wounds.
The reason for his predicament was that he had listened to Chen Shuo and launched an all-out attack. That had consumed most of Xu Changjun's energy.
Add to that his advanced age, and the prolonged battle was making him increasingly fatigued.
The longer the fight went on, the more obvious Xu Changjun's disadvantage became.
But even so, Demon King Xiao Mingchen showed no intention of jumping in.
He just watched, silently observing from the sidelines. He was waiting, waiting for the most opportune moment.
For him, there was no need to rush at all.
Everything was in the bag. As long as the vampires he brought could completely exhaust Xu Changjun, that would be the best time for him to make his move.
Thinking of this, Demon King Xiao Mingchen impatiently licked his dry lips: "How exciting. The blood of a Legendary Demon Hunter must be delicious, right?"
"Indeed, a Legendary Demon Hunter is delicious. I wonder how much experience killing a Demon King would give?"
Just as Demon King Xiao Mingchen was lost in his thoughts, a soft voice sounded in his ear.
By the time he reacted, Demon King Xiao Mingchen found that he couldn't move his body at all.
"What... what's going on? Chen Shuo, did you do something?"
Demon King Xiao Mingchen shouted angrily, but no matter how he tried to break free, the result was the same.
His body seemed to have completely lost control, and no matter what method he used, he couldn't move an inch.
He could clearly feel that it was a pressure coming from deep within his bloodline.
"How is this possible? How can this be?"
Demon King Xiao Mingchen's face was filled with disbelief, and his gaze towards Chen Shuo couldn't help but reveal a trace of fear.
This was the first time he had felt such dread, fear of the young man before him.
Although he had known about Chen Shuo's existence early on and was aware that Chen Shuo's strength and talent were not low,
But at the same level, he had numerous troops and countless vampires under his command. In contrast, what did Chen Shuo have?
Besides having Su Xiyan by his side, there was no one else.
The vast disparity in forces meant he had never considered Chen Shuo a real opponent.
In his view, he could make Chen Shuo disappear whenever he wanted. Especially this time, he thought about using Chen Shuo and then, once he broke through to the Demon Saint level, he would be able to wipe out Chen Shuo as well.
Of course, if Chen Shuo was willing to obey him, he would spare his life.
If not, it would be death.
But imagination is always beautiful, and the reality before him made him question his life.
The power Chen Shuo demonstrated far exceeded his understanding, even though he had been a Demon King for many years and had seen countless situations.
But in the face of the power Chen Shuo displayed, he was stunned, he was shocked.
He also guessed something.
"Could it be that you've already reached the legendary..." Demon King Xiao Mingchen's voice began to tremble.
His previous composure had turned into deep fear at this moment.
As a vampire, he could clearly sense Chen Shuo's true power at this moment.
And at this moment, Chen Shuo had no intention of hiding anything further, after all, the other party was now just a dead man walking.
No, he should be a dead ghost walking.
For a vampire about to die, he had nothing to hide.
"Yes, just as you've guessed, I surpassed the power of a Demon King long ago. The previous few times I let you escape by luck, but this time, it's your death day."
Chen Shuo said with a cold smile. At this moment, he wanted to make the other party understand that in the face of absolute power, all schemes and tricks would fail.
It was a bit of a waste to kill him himself, though. Right now, Su Xiyan still needed to continue improving her strength, and Demon King Xiao Mingchen was the key to Su Xiyan's breakthrough.
After speaking, Chen Shuo didn't hesitate much. He grabbed Demon King Xiao Mingchen and disappeared from the spot with him.
As for Old Xu, Chen Shuo wasn't worried.
After all, he was a Legendary Demon Hunter. Dealing with some Half Ghost King vampires wouldn't be too difficult for him.
