One-Star Dou Sheng, Dealing with Xiao Yan

Xiao Yan’s teeth seemed to have become as sharp as blades, and he bit off Han Feng’s entire arm.

"Ah!" Han Feng cried out in agony, then immediately circulated his Dou Qi to his severed arm, easing the pain somewhat.

Han Feng’s eyes reddened as he glared at Xiao Yan and roared, "I’ll kill you! Everyone, attack! Whoever kills this brat will be rewarded with five Rank Six Pills!"

Those people had been somewhat afraid of Xiao Yan, but upon hearing about five Rank Six Pills, the word fear was instantly thrown beyond the nine heavens.

"Kill!"

The people from the Black-Corner Region immediately drew their weapons and charged forward. A sinister smile appeared on Xiao Yan’s face as he continued repeating those two words, "Food!"

Everyone rushed forward and surrounded Xiao Yan. Xiao Yan chuckled, fixed his gaze on the strongest among them, and pounced.

That man was so frightened that he swung his sword at him.

Yet the longsword in his hand was shattered with a single slap from Xiao Yan. Then Xiao Yan bit down on the man’s neck, causing him to collapse to the ground. Xiao Yan immediately began dissecting him, pulling out his organs and eating them.

The others instantly felt nauseated. Xiao Yan devoured the man in minutes, then turned to look at the second-strongest person.

That man was immediately startled and shouted, "Let’s attack together! Otherwise, we’ll all be finished soon enough!"

The others thought he had a point and immediately charged forward together.

Xiao Yan stood motionless. Just as everyone’s weapons were about to strike him, they all stopped in midair. Everyone was startled and widened their eyes, only to see all their weapons burst into fragments.

Xiao Yan revealed a faint smile, grabbed two people with both hands, and began eating them as if he were holding two chickens. This time, the others were so terrified that their legs nearly gave out beneath them, and they immediately turned and ran.

Xiao Yan wore a carefree, sinister smile. In the next moment, those people felt as though invisible ropes had bound them, leaving them unable to escape. Seeing this, Han Feng swallowed and immediately tried to fly away.

But the moment he leaped into the air, he crashed heavily to the ground.

Xiao Yan would not let his food escape so easily. He had set up a secret technique to prohibit flight earlier and used Dou Qi to bind those people.

Xiao Yan’s body had been possessed, but the soul occupying it possessed intelligence as well. It was merely violent by nature and ate people.

Xiao Yan chuckled and began feasting. Soon, everyone from the Black-Corner Region had been eaten. After Su Yu and Yao Lao arrived in the air, they happened to see Xiao Yan walking toward Han Feng, who was lying prone on the ground.

Su Yu looked at Yao Lao and asked, "Should we go down now?"

Yao Lao was silent for a moment before saying, "Let Han Feng die at Xiao Yan’s hands."

Su Yu nodded slightly. Then the two watched Xiao Yan kill Han Feng and begin eating him. Yao Lao frowned and said, "If we do not get rid of him, he will surely become even more terrifying than the Hall of Souls in the future!"

Su Yu nodded. The demonized Xiao Yan was indeed far more terrifying than the Hall of Souls.

Yao Lao suddenly said in shock, "A One-Star Dou Sheng!"

Su Yu looked at Xiao Yan and explained, "The demonized Xiao Yan can devour Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures. Heavenly Flames count as well, and they are an enormous tonic for him!"

"Senior, you stay here. I’ll go kill him!" Yao Lao said.

Su Yu shook his head. "I should go instead. You cannot stop that monster’s escape techniques."

Yao Lao found it hard to believe that, with his strength as a Half-Step Dou Di, he could not stop a One-Star Dou Sheng!

Su Yu had not lied to Yao Lao. That demonic art contained extremely formidable escape methods. When wielded with the strength of a One-Star Dou Sheng, a Half-Step Dou Di was indeed just a little short of being able to stop him.

Su Yu slowly descended. Xiao Yan froze for a moment, then stared at Su Yu. He sensed not a trace of Dou Qi from Su Yu and disdained even eating him. But he had just broken through and was somewhat hungry, so he would make do with him.

With that thought, Xiao Yan charged forward.

The Taigu Yiyin Qin appeared in Su Yu’s hand. The guqin floated before him as his fingers brushed across its strings, and a melody of "Qian Jin Qing" began to play.

Zheng, zheng, zheng, zheng zheng zheng zheng…

Qian Jin Qing had the effect of purification, and monsters like this feared it most. Sure enough, as the music began, Xiao Yan clutched his head and howled in agony, with streams of black Qi rising from his body.

Seeing that things were going badly, Xiao Yan immediately transformed into a puddle of black water and tried to flee. Su Yu calmly condensed a block of ice on his fingertip and tossed it onto the black water.

"Ah!"

Xiao Yan cried out in agony and immediately returned to human form, a hole appearing in his chest.

The ice block in Su Yu’s hand had been condensed from Primordial Void Water, directly corroding away a portion of Xiao Yan’s chest.

Su Yu continued playing the guqin, while Xiao Yan could only roll across the ground and scream.

A quarter of an hour later

Xiao Yan had completely turned into a mass of black Qi and vanished from the area. Yao Lao came to Su Yu’s side and asked, "Senior, will anything happen if we just let that black Qi drift away?"

Su Yu said, "Don’t worry. It has all been purified. Even if someone accidentally inhales it, it will only bring benefits, not harm."

Yao Lao nodded. "That’s good. Sigh, it’s just a pity that so many innocent students and elders of Jia Nan Academy lost their lives like this…"

Su Yu put away the guqin and said, "Since we’re already here, let’s help them out."

As he spoke, the Infinity Gauntlet appeared on Su Yu’s hand. Su Yu raised his hand and pointed at the ruins. In an instant, a green light shone upon them, and the ruins began restoring themselves as though time were playing in reverse. The students and elders who had been drained dry all came back to life. Only the people from the Black-Corner Region and Xiao Yan were not revived.

Yao Lao stared at the scene in shock. It was simply too miraculous. If he had not witnessed it with his own eyes, he would never have believed that such powerful and wondrous force existed in this world!

Yao Lao looked at Su Yu with shining eyes and said, "Senior, is this the power of time? It’s truly incredible!"

Su Yu smiled. "What I have is nothing. If it were Little Jiu, she could turn back time by a thousand years in the blink of an eye."

Yao Lao swallowed in fright. He truly had not expected the lively and adorable Mao Jiu to be so formidable. But on second thought, it made sense. How could an ordinary person possibly become Su Yu’s wife?

"Let’s go. Let Su Qian handle the remaining trivial matters himself," Su Yu said.

Yao Lao nodded, then teleported directly back to their residence with Su Yu. Su Yu looked at Su Qian and said, "Elder Su, the matter has been resolved. I also restored the Burning Sky Refining Tower to its original state, and the students and elders have been revived. They do not know what happened before, but the other students and elders who were unharmed do know. To avoid chaos, you should hurry back and take charge of the situation."
