As Beiming Xue's Ice Blade was just raised, Fatty Venerable flicked his middle finger, and a burst of the Power of Demon Patterns flew out, instantly piercing through Beiming Xue's robe sleeve.
Only a "clang" was heard, and Beiming Xue only felt a tingle in her hand, her Ice Blade immediately knocked away.
Fatty Venerable chuckled: "Beauty, how could I bear to let you die? Don't be too pessimistic; tonight, I'll make you feel good."
Beiming Xue's expression changed; she wasn't afraid of death, but falling into the hands of the vulgar-looking man before her would be even more agonizing than death.
Thinking this, Beiming Xue gritted her teeth, revealing killing intent in her eyes, and shook her right hand.
Threads thin as hair, Ice Silk, flew out from Beiming Xue's sleeve, striking at Fatty Venerable.
Fatty Venerable's face bore a disdainful smile, his fat right hand waved casually, and Beiming Xue's Ice Silk was knocked away effortlessly.
While warding off her attack, Fatty Venerable teased, "Spicy indeed, just my taste; there are too many obedient women, I prefer ones like this who aren't. But after tonight, let's see if you're still so spicy."
Hearing Fatty Venerable's suggestive words, Beiming Xue's eyes grew cold, and she gritted her teeth as the Power of Demon Patterns within her surged forth.
Unable to defeat the man before her, Beiming Xue resolved to self-destruct and die.
But just then, Wang Yan's violent coughing was heard from beside her, and Beiming Xue quickly turned to see Wang Yan's eyes flaming, unable to contain his rage, as several mouthfuls of blood spewed forth.
Beiming Xue's heart ached, and she quickly suppressed her rampaging Power of Demon Patterns, throwing herself onto Wang Yan's body, crying: "Brother Wang Yan!"
At this moment, Fatty Venerable raised his hand, and three golden rings flew out, binding Beiming Xue immediately.
Beiming Xue's arms were bound, immobilized, collapsing beside Wang Yan.
Fatty Venerable laughed heartily, "Beauty, what's so lovable about this sickly guy? Once I kill him, you'll be mine."
Having said this, Fatty Venerable was about to strike Wang Yan.
But then Skinny Venerable also raised a hand to block him, saying, "Let me kill this man instead."
Fatty Venerable smiled, pushing Skinny Venerable aside, saying, "Forget it; I'll handle it myself."
The two men jostled, each wanting to personally kill Wang Yan.
During their contention, a dozen Demon Venerables secretly approached from behind, visibly intent on harming Wang Yan.
Seeing this, Fatty and Skinny Venerable immediately stopped their fight and turned to glare at the dozen Demon Venerables behind them.
Skinny Venerable shouted angrily, "How dare you interfere with what we brothers have set our sights on?"
The dozen Demon Venerables hadn't reached the Great Perfection, so they retreated a step, embarrassedly saying, "We wouldn't dare, wouldn't dare."
Fatty Venerable said, "Boss, we both know, whoever kills this sickly guy will smoothly tame the Five Elements Exotic Beast, so why don't we strike together."
"Alright, together."
With Skinny Venerable's response, the two simultaneously raised their fists, aiming at Wang Yan.
At this moment, though Wang Yan was sitting there, he was desperately dissolving the purple spear in his lower abdomen.
Once the purple spear was dissolved and Wang Yan's Demon Pattern power restored, he could instantly kill everyone present.
But even as Wang Yan fought with all his might, the purple spear remained motionless.
Seeing death approaching, Wang Yan sighed inwardly: Unbelievable, Divine Power is indeed formidable; I was too arrogant.
His arrogance not only cost him his life but also implicated Beiming Xue and Duobao.
Just then, a voice came from outside the palace: "This man cannot be killed by anyone here; leave him to me."
Hearing this, Fatty and Skinny Venerable halted their fists, turned back angrily, saying, "Who dares to snatch food from us?"
However, as soon as their words came out, they were stunned, their arrogance fades away, replaced by awkwardly smiling faces.
But the smile was immensely awkward, worse than crying.
From outside the palace, over ten Demon Venerables strode in, led by the white-bearded, white-haired Li Ji.
Though Fatty and Skinny Venerable were both at the Great Perfection with Li Ji, their backgrounds were inferior to Li Ji.
Li Ji was the head of the first family of the Great Qin Empire, the first Grand General, vastly superior to them.
Therefore, upon seeing Li Ji, Fatty and Skinny Venerable retreated two steps, embarrassingly saying, "Ah, it's Grand General Li, forgive us, forgive us."
Li Ji ignored Fatty and Skinny Venerable and walked straight to Wang Yan, showing excitement on his face, "Unexpectedly, even the mighty Demon Wolf King can be bullied like this by small fry."
Initially, Li Ji and his family hid outside the palace, not daring to enter.
Seeing Fatty and Skinny Venerable preparing to kill Wang Yan, with Wang Yan not resisting, Li Ji confirmed Wang Yan was really powerless to counterattack, only then did he dare step out.
Upon hearing the words "Demon Wolf King," everyone present was taken aback.
Skinny Venerable asked, "Grand General, did you just say Demon Wolf King?"
The Demon Wolf King had recently gained fame in the Great Qin Empire, renowned and illustrious, yet none present had seen the king in person, leaving them puzzled.
Li Ji pointed to Wang Yan, saying, "He is the Demon Wolf King."
A chorus of disbelief echoed around the place.
Skinny Venerable widened his eyes and asked, "This sickly guy is the Demon Wolf King?"
Li Ji said, "He wasn't sickly before; it was after the battle with me that he became like this."
Hearing this, those around started flattering.
"It turns out the Grand General's cultivation is profound indeed."
"No matter how loud the name of the Demon Wolf King is, how can it compare to the Grand General?"
...
This was precisely the effect Li Ji wanted; after killing Wang Yan, the fame of defeating the Demon Wolf King would fall to him, raising his reputation to new heights within the Great Qin Empire.
But at this moment, Wang Yan weakly spoke, "Was it truly you who defeated me?"
Li Ji's face sank, revealing killing intent as he looked at Wang Yan, saying, "Are you implying it wasn't?"
However, Wang Yan was genuinely seeking death, hoping to provoke Li Ji; thus, despite seeing Li Ji's deadly gaze, he continued, "May I ask which magical treasure of yours is the purple spear in my abdomen?"
Upon hearing this, everyone turned to look at the magic treasure in Wang Yan's abdomen, though most did not recognize it.
Only Fatty and Skinny Venerable's faces changed, retreating a few steps, warily gazing at Li Ji, simultaneously asking, "Grand General, have you broken through to Demigod?"
Li Ji's face flushed, but he could only shake his head: "This purple spear was released by my ancestor."
Hearing this, Fatty and Skinny Venerable breathed a sigh of relief.
However, they began to praise again.
"Judging by this purple spear, Ancestor Li Si's Divine Power must be complete, soon to condense a Nascent Soul."
"Indeed, condensing a Nascent Soul, breaking through to Demigod, is surely a Demon God Body."
Fatty and Skinny Venerable's flattery was ordinary, but upon hearing it, a spark suddenly ignited in Wang Yan's always dim eyes.
