I picked up the scattered attributes

"you--"

Bai Xiao shrieked, her tail bristling, revealing two sharp teeth as she stared warily at the newcomers: "If you want to harm the young master, you'll have to get past me first—"

"Hehe, little fox."

The newcomer glanced at Bai Xiao, shook his head dismissively, and sneered, "With your meager skills, you're far from qualified to stop the Seven Sages of the Bamboo Forest."

All the newcomers were humanoid, but they were emanating a demonic aura and exuded a murderous intent that made no attempt to conceal their malice.

Upon hearing the words "Seven Sages of the Bamboo Grove," Bai Xiao's heart sank slightly: "The Seven Sages of the Bamboo Grove of the Demon God Palace..."

As the highest hall that governs the entire Demon Kingdom, it is not without other powers besides the Demon Emperor who suppresses everything.

For example, the Lion King, the chief steward of the Demon God Palace, is not among the Ten Great Demon Kings, but he is still a powerful being at the Demon King level.

The Seven Sages of the Bamboo Grove are said to be a bamboo grove in the Demon God Palace, which gathered the spiritual essence of the sun and moon for hundreds or thousands of years. It eventually transformed into seven beings, who were taken under the command of the Demon Emperor. Over the years, their strength has gradually increased, and they have slaughtered people all over the place, leaving behind countless infamous names!

The Seven Sages of the Bamboo Grove.

They are referred to by outsiders as...

The Seven Fiends of the Bamboo Forest!

There are even rumors that near the bamboo forest close to their main body, one can often hear ghostly wails and howls, as well as hellish phantoms. One by one, the creatures that died at their hands hang in the bamboo forest with ferocious faces, it is like a living hell!

"Little fox, you can't stop us."

Among them, a burly man with his chest exposed laughed loudly as his arms grew wildly, like a bamboo spear that grew wildly, intertwined with blood and murderous aura, and in an instant, he passed over the demon fox Bai Xiao and pierced through Feng Xia's chest!

"Your reaction time is too slow!"

At the same time, a woman appeared behind Feng Xia, her body swaying like a willow branch, her fists striking Feng Xia's head with incredible speed.

Snapped!

The head suddenly exploded, spraying blood everywhere, scattering it across the ground.

"Master——"

The fox demon Bai Xiao felt a pang in her heart and let out a shrill scream.

"Xia Donghai, who is wanted by His Highness the Holy Son and has a notorious reputation, is not that strong. The rumors are far too exaggerated!"

"Don't you even look at those rumored monsters? What kind of trash are they? With their pitiful eyesight, anything stronger than them is exaggerated to the skies, touted as something rare in the world?"

At the same time, the seven people had arrived in front of Feng Xia, their eyes fixed intently on Zhu You Niang beside him.

The woman, as delicate as willow catkins, chuckled softly: "Little girl, your man has been killed by us, how come you're not angry or afraid at all?"

Zhu Youniang smiled upon hearing this, looking the group up and down, her smile growing even brighter:

"Little girl? All of you combined might not even be older than me. Besides..."

The girl slightly raised her chin, paused, and said with a hint of disdain, "You think you can defeat A-Xia with your shoddy goods?"

"Hehe, this little girl must have lost her mind."

The Seven Sages of the Bamboo Grove all shook their heads: "Little girl, hand over the inheritance here, and we can leave you with a whole corpse."

These seven individuals, though different in form, are of one mind. Their combined strength is almost second only to the level of a demon king. Unless Xia Donghai is a true demon king, he would only end up like this, with his head exploding and dying a miserable death at their hands... Hmm?!

The alluring woman in the green dress was the first to cry out in alarm: "Watch out!!"

All that could be seen on the ground where "Xia Donghai" lay, his head had exploded, and suddenly, flesh and blood began to writhe, and a brand new head sprouted from it.

The head blinked and said in a low voice:

"Who... hit me on the head just now?"

……

Chapter 0256

The air inside the grotto seemed to have completely frozen.

The Seven Sages of the Bamboo Forest stared blankly at the figure, at Xia Donghai, whose head they had blown off. A new head had grown from his severed head, perfectly intact, without the slightest trace of injury!

Who hit me on the head just now?

Feng Xia staggered to his feet, rubbing the back of his neck. His face was slightly gloomy. Although the one whose head was blown off was the Azure Dragon incarnation, and could regenerate at any time as long as its flesh and blood were sufficient, Zhu Youniang was still by his side...

That's so embarrassing!

"Young Master?" Bai Xiao, who had been prepared to fight to the death, was stunned by this scene.

"I wonder if it has affected my image in Youniang's eyes... Oh, and this strange fox too."

He muttered to himself, his gaze fierce as he fixed on the Seven Sages of the Bamboo Forest. The aura of the Azure Dragon emanation surged: "Answer me, who hit my head?"

"ridiculous!"

Finally, the Seven Sages of the Bamboo Grove also realized what was happening.

Regardless of what methods Xia Donghai used to escape that attack, the basic situation remains unchanged. They have a significant numerical advantage, while Xia Donghai's side only has one person who can truly be considered a fighter!

"Don't be intimidated by him. The seven of us working together are enough to keep him here forever!"

"Having repeatedly offended His Highness the Holy Son, and being wanted by my Demon God Palace, you still dare to parade around like this. Today, you must pay the price for this!"

"Kill you, and both the Stone Clan's heritage here and His Highness the Holy Son's reward will belong to the seven of us!"

The burly man, with his chest exposed, roared, and his body swelled up like bamboo joints, instantly transforming into a giant over ten zhang tall.

His palm came down from the sky, and from a distance, it looked like five incredibly thick divine bamboos descending, filled with a heavy green light, piercing through the nine heavens, intending to crush Feng Xia to death on the spot!

The other six also used their own methods, and in an instant, the cave that had just experienced a great battle was once again filled with the light of supernatural powers, wave after wave, sweeping across all directions in an instant!

Seeing that his questioning had not been answered, the face of the Azure Dragon incarnation finally showed anger. His blood surged wildly, and his power seemed to be soaring infinitely. It was as if the seven sages of the Bamboo Forest, with their imposing aura, could not shake him in the slightest.

"You're not going to answer, are you? Since none of you are going to answer, then I'll beat you all up—"

Taiyi Azure Dragon Sky-Splitting Style!

The eldest of the Seven Sages of the Bamboo Grove attacked, his five fingers seemingly capable of piercing the sky. But in the next instant, an even larger dragon claw appeared, its dragon might terrifying, radiating a sharp edge that could tear the heavens and split the earth, and it severed the five giant bamboo stalks in half!

The burly man, bleeding profusely, involuntarily reverted to his original form and flew backward.

However, his head was grabbed by a large hand and slammed hard into the ground, where it was pressed into the hard rock!

"Big brother-"

The woman, as delicate as willow catkins, screamed and clung to Feng Xia's back like a phantom. She let out a shrill cry, her ten fingers sharp as ten daggers, ready to pierce the back of the Azure Dragon's head in the next instant.

However, at that moment, a second head suddenly grew from the back of Feng Xia's head.

The head stared sharply at the woman, and at the same time, a second pair of arms emerged from under its armpits, palms crossed, and the Taiyi Azure Dragon Sky-Splitting Style erupted once more!

"roll--"

The second head roared angrily.

"Ah ah--"

The woman screamed, completely unprepared for this scene. Caught off guard, her supernatural powers were instantly shattered, and her body seemed to turn into a real willow catkin, torn apart by the light from Feng Xia's palm!

A dragon claw pressed down, slamming the woman into the ground.

It was at this moment that a third head emerged from the neck of the Azure Dragon's incarnation, and a third pair of arms also grew from its armpits.

Three heads and six arms!

"Tell me, who did it?"

The Azure Dragon's incarnation had piercing eyes, and its three heads opened their mouths simultaneously, their voices booming so loudly that the Seven Sages of the Bamboo Forest felt as if their internal organs were being burned, and they almost coughed up blood on the spot!

They tried to speak, but Feng Xia's voice drowned them out: "Very good, your brotherhood truly moves me. I see. I'll then allow your whole family to be together—"

Faced with the wind and summer at this moment, the other five of the Seven Sages of the Bamboo Grove were instantly shocked.

The frail-looking scholar-like youth trembled involuntarily as he watched Feng Xia charge towards them, taking a step back: "You... what kind of monster are you?!"

When they heard about Xia Donghai's wanted poster, they wondered what Xia Donghai's true form looked like.

But no matter what, they never expected this...

Xia Donghai showed no intention of reverting to his original form. Instead, he transformed into a three-headed, six-armed being in human form, and in almost a single exchange, he caused his two companions to be utterly defeated!

"Fourth brother, be careful!!"

The others shouted loudly.

At this moment, the scholar-like boy finally realized that he was carrying a bamboo basket on his back. The basket suddenly opened, revealing a large, dark hole!

"Xia Donghai, don't underestimate us!"

An incredibly terrifying suction force emanated from the pitch-black bamboo basket, as if it contained a swirling hole, sucking up countless soil and rocks from all directions, and even threatening to devour Feng Xia along with it!

As the fourth of the Seven Sages of the Bamboo Grove, the scholar's expertise lies not in supernatural powers or physical strength, but in refining magical treasures!

That bamboo basket was crafted from a part of his own body and connected to a chaotic space. Over the years, countless powerful opponents have underestimated this bamboo basket and were eventually banished to the chaotic space, never to return!

He was delighted to see that Xia Donghai's body lost its balance and involuntarily flew towards the bamboo basket, falling into the hole inside.

"I've frozen him in place!"

The young scholar shouted, a fierce glint in his eyes: "Attack together! Kill him!"

The other four did not hesitate to take action.
