Well... however, since the remnant soul of the God of Life has chosen to believe in Ella, then whatever the true nature of our Saintess may be, she is now the orthodox one.

Thinking it over, Ye Xiao nodded in agreement—we really need to get rid of those imposters who tarnish the name of our Holy Maiden.

Just then, a rustling sound came from behind them.

The stench of blood, the tremors of wild beasts stomping the ground, and the occasional howls of wolves piercing the night sky—Ye Xiao knew without even looking that Asar and his horned wolf knight army had caught up.

"We have to hurry."

Ye Xiao urged the knights on, and they understood, quickening their pace.

But two legs can never compare to four legs. Before long, Ye Xiao heard the footsteps of the horned wolves getting closer and closer.

"We need to hide first."

Using the same method, Ye Xiao and the others quickly found a dense thicket of bushes to hide in.

But this time they weren't so lucky. With a "whoosh," a fireball shot straight through the trees and crashed down on them.

If Ye Xiao hadn't been quick-witted and summoned a sturdy stone wall from a distance as a barrier, this fire meteor would probably have blasted them to pieces on the spot.

However, the flying debris and the escaping flames also destroyed all the surrounding trees, immediately revealing the location of Ye Xiao and the others.

"Hahaha, I've finally caught you, you treacherous human!!"

Asar's familiar loud laughter rang out. He was dressed in blood-red armor, riding a menacing ghostly warhorse, and walked out arrogantly, surrounded by the Great Demon Guard. His fierce eyes were fixed on Ye Xiao, and the corners of his mouth were turned up.

"Let's see where you can run this time..."

Before he could finish speaking, Ye Xiao suddenly raised his staff with his right hand.

As if triggered by some kind of conditioned reflex, Asar and the large group of horned wolf riders immediately shrank their heads, their movements so synchronized that it seemed they had been rehearsing for a long time.

But Ye Xiao didn't cast a spell; he simply put down his staff and smiled merrily.

"You piece of shit, human!!"

Asar shouted angrily, "Don't you feel ashamed of always using such despicable magic?!"

"How can you not feel ashamed that such a large group of demons are attacking just a few of us?"

Ye Xiao shrugged.

However, only he could remain calm. The other knights looked on with despair as they were surrounded by layers upon layers of demons.

"Heh, you don't actually think I'd fall for your tricks, do you, human?"

Assal crossed his arms, his expression icy. "Provoking me like this, then demanding a one-on-one fight? Don't think I don't know what kind of dirty thoughts you're harboring!"

"Oh? No, not at all..."

Ye Xiao scratched his head. He had just said that casually; it was just a habit of a contrarian.

This isn't a TV drama, after all. What idiot would fight the enemy one-on-one when they outnumbered him? He certainly had a plan, but it certainly wasn't this comical...

"Don't try to argue your way out of this."

Asar arrogantly interrupted Ye Xiao, "Hmph, human, but you are honored, this prince will grant you such an opportunity."

"If you have any guts, stop with your scheming plots and come out for a one-on-one fight! But remember, this isn't about your schemes succeeding, but about this prince making you, a lowly human, understand the insurmountable chasm between you and me!!!"

"……what?"

Ye Xiao's lips twitched. "Alright, that's enough. I know you demons have no sense of honor. Even if you win, you'll just be yelling 'Hey, minions, charge!' So let's skip this step..."

"What nonsense are you spouting! How dare you insult the honor of my Blood Prince!!"

Asar roared, then glared at his men with his large, round eyes, "Did you hear me! Keep your eyes wide open and watch how I defeat this human! Anyone who dares to move, I'll chop off their limbs and feed them to the horned wolves!!!"

No, buddy, are you serious?

Having grown accustomed to dealing with annoying guys like the company and the Dark Shepherds, Ye Xiao was suddenly moved for some reason upon encountering such an innocent villain.

"If I beat you, will you let us go?"

"Of course not, do you think I'm stupid!?"

Assar snorted coldly.

"...Then why should I fight you one-on-one?"

"Are you stupid? It's because I have more people than you!"

Assal looked at him like he was an idiot.

Holy crap, what he said actually makes sense!?

Ye Xiao was completely stunned.

"Human, what is your name?"

Assar said coldly again.

“Worsha Brandon…”

"Very well, human Vossah Brandon, you get out here now! Remember, the demon who killed you is the greatest blood prince, Assal!!!"

Chapter 85 Glory Showdown

The night wind howled, and the grass and trees swayed.

Within the encirclement of thousands of demons, in the clearing created by the fire meteor, Ye Xiao, holding his staff, walked out alone from beside several knights, confronting Asar who was walking towards him from afar.

Aren't you going to ride your skeleton horse?

Seeing Asar tumble off his horse, Ye Xiao asked him a question out of curiosity.

"Heh, I won't take advantage of you, lest my underlings think I won unfairly."

Assar snorted coldly.

"Well done, Lord Assar!"

"Wise and mighty, Lord Assar!"

"To see the boss chop down that treacherous bastard, even dying would be worth it!"

The demons surrounding them roared excitedly, making the duel quite lively for a moment.

Interesting, there's even an atmosphere group.

Ye Xiao smiled and placed the staff in front of her.

Behind him, the Aslan knights looked on with worry, their throats bobbing as their hearts leaped into their throats.

"Are you ready, human?"

Asar raised the tip of his sword, pointing it at Ye Xiao.

"Always waiting."

Ye Xiao shrugged.

"Very well! This prince will now chop off your head!!!"

Assar's crimson eyes flashed with a fierce light, and with a powerful push off the ground, he transformed into a red streak that swept across the battlefield.

Ye Xiao raised his hand and fired a Lava Sniper Rifle to meet the opponent's figure.

"Ah!"

Asar swung his sword, precisely striking the incoming rock spike.

Metal and steel clashed, sparks flew, and the rock cone split in two, sending up two plumes of dust on the ground.

Sure enough, although the spell was fast, its trajectory was fixed!

Asar smirked. As long as he could see where the staff was pointing, it wouldn't be a problem to split it in two once he reacted.

Seeing the other person approaching, Ye Xiao casually summoned a wisp of wind to entwine himself and drifted backward to create distance.

"Want to run?"

Assar's free left hand had its five fingers slightly spread, and a ball of rich blood magic gathered in his palm.

The next moment he threw the blood sphere, which instantly split into six sword blades in mid-air, flying up and slashing at Ye Xiao.

Seeing the agile, dancing blood swords slashing in from all directions, blocking his retreat, Ye Xiao immediately planted his staff in the ground and chanted incantations.

An earthen-yellow magic circle rotated and unfolded beneath his feet, and a huge rock golem roared up from the ground, spreading its arms and bending down to protect Ye Xiao beneath it.

"Clang clang clang clang"

A series of bloody sword strikes left only shallow marks on the rock golem's back.

Ye Xiao then raised his staff, and the rock golem followed suit by raising its right palm, a ball of flame swirling and gathering in its palm.

"Ha, the same trick again?"

Undeterred, Assal continued his charge.

He was only ten meters away from Ye Xiao. Even if it were a giant stone golem casting the same spell, he was still confident he could kill it.

"boom"

Hearing that familiar explosion again, Asar unleashed another sword strike, quite elegantly.

"It's just as I expected..."

"Bang bang bang bang..."

"Wow, how can this piece of crap spell be cast repeatedly?!"

Asar stared wide-eyed as a barrage of rock spikes rained down upon him like machine gun fire, his steps faltering so fast he couldn't even dodge.

His blood-stained armor revealed a protective barrier, but it was instantly pierced through like a sieve by the onslaught of those rock spikes.

The rock golem stopped its rotating right arm; now, only the broken end of the rock wrist, which had turned to molten lava due to overheating, remained, emitting wisps of blue smoke.

Ye Xiao needs to reconstruct the magic circle to condense new rock cones every time he fires a Molten Sniper Shot, but with this stone golem, it only needs to fire the rock cones that it has pre-buried in its arm in sequence.

One of the most terrifying aspects of these spells created by the wisdom of players is that they break the convention that the amount of magic power determines the strength of a spell through their bizarre and unique constructions.

Just like the difference between simply firing a fireball and it exploding on an enemy, and burying a fireball inside a broken stone ball and it exploding, the resulting damage is completely different.

However, after a cloud of dust cleared, Asar, who had been riddled with bullets, actually gripped the upright hilt of his sword with both hands and stood up shakily.

A few screams suddenly rang out from the surrounding demons, and then several streaks of blood-red light flew out and converged on Asar's body.

The blood-red light merged into his body, and soon transformed into flesh and blood to fill in the numerous wounds.

"Despicable humans..."

Assar suddenly opened his eyes, his gaze turning fierce, and pulled the sword from the ground. "I must say, you have quite a few cunning schemes."

"This...this is impossible to beat, right...??"

The Aslan knights felt even more desperate when they saw Asar, who had been beaten to a pulp just a moment ago, suddenly become lively and energetic again.

At this rate, it's pointless for Professor Brandon to win many more times; he'll lose sooner or later!

"Sacrificing subordinates to restore one's own life...a blood pact, huh?"

Ye Xiao remained calm as he glanced at the densely packed demons surrounding him. "I see. Interesting."

"Human, you have quite a broad range of knowledge."

Asar was slightly surprised that Ye Xiao could recognize the bloodline magic he used. "No wonder you can conjure up so many disgusting spells."

"Excellent."

Ye Xiao curled the corners of his mouth, and the broken right arm of the giant stone golem behind him was completely restored at this moment—or more accurately, it was fully reloaded.

“I admit, I may have to take your strength seriously... Be proud of it, human, for you have earned the approval of the Blood Prince.”

Assar flicked his cloak and raised his longsword high, pointing it at the night sky.

"Ancient blood of the abyss, I now summon you to descend into this world in the name of the Blood Prince..."

He stopped talking nonsense, his pale lips parted, and he uttered obscure incantations in the devil's tongue.

The air churned, and streaks of fissures appeared all around, like wounds caused by spatial rupture, oozing patches of dark blood.

"Ok?"

Seeing that this guy seemed to be preparing something, Ye Xiao immediately ordered the giant stone golem to fire a series of rock spikes at Asar again.
