Chapter 41: Ambush
Heyu led a group of dark guards, and a fierce battle broke out right before their eyes. This was the first time Heyu had ever fought in front of Xiaoyao. He wielded a long staff—evidently crafted by the Jintian Clan—thick and long, flashing with cold, piercing light. Within a radius of two zhang, anyone caught in its sweep was either dead or maimed. Unlike the fluttering snowflakes and ethereal elegance of the battle against Xiangliu, Heyu’s fighting style was a brutal storm of flying flesh, shattered skulls, and ghostly wails. Although the attackers possessed considerable spiritual power, they were no match for his staff as it whirled up and down, attacking from both sides. In the blink of an eye, severed limbs filled the air, rolling heads hit the ground, and blood flowed like a river.
After the first wave of attack, not a single one of the men in black survived. With a grand wave of Heyu’s hand, his blood-soaked clothes instantly became as neat as new. Protected by a surge of blue spiritual energy, demonic aura rolled off his body in waves, projecting an aura of despair and world-ending dominance at a single glance.
