635: Battle against the Lion

“Then why were you constantly pressing against me when we were sitting on Little Flame's back earlier?” Long Qinxue complained sweetly.

“Cough... cough.” Yang Lingchen lightly coughed and said awkwardly, “It was just a normal reaction. How can you blame me?”

“If there's a next time, don't blame this Palace for being impolite.” Long Qinxue snapped, then took out a Demon Fish and said, “This is a Demon Fish this Palace just caught. Roast it.”

“Alright!”

Yang Lingchen responded, then took out a barbecue grill and skillfully started making grilled fish.

He took out the dragon que sword, skillfully sliced open the Demon Fish's skin and flesh, and then cleaned the internal organs.

“Stinky brat! You actually secretly possess my Dragon Clan's dragon que sword?” Long Qinxue complained sweetly, her eyes filled with surprise.

“This is a treasured sword lost by Senior Dragon Flame Merchant, and I bought it back for a high price.” After Yang Lingchen finished speaking, he quickly put the sword back into the haotian jade space.

“This Palace never said I was going to snatch it from you, why are you putting it away?” Long Qinxue said irritably.

“Are you really not going to snatch it?” Yang Lingchen asked cautiously.

“If this Palace wanted to snatch it, could you stop me?” Long Qinxue rolled her beautiful eyes at Yang Lingchen. “Hurry up and finish grilling the fish.”

“Fine!” Yang Lingchen nodded.

Half an hour later, a delicious and savory Demon Fish was placed on the table.

Yang Lingchen then took out his homemade red wine and poured a glass for Long Qinxue.

“Have a taste. I don't know if it suits your appetite,” Yang Lingchen said, tearing off a piece of Demon Fish meat and handing it to Long Qinxue.

“It smells quite fragrant. I'll try it.” Long Qinxue, with elegant manners, picked up a piece of grilled fish and took a small bite.

“How is it?” Yang Lingchen asked tentatively.

“The taste is quite good.”

Long Qinxue nodded and continued to pick up another piece to eat. “I didn't expect you to have this skill.”

“If you like eating it, I'll make it for you often in the future,” Yang Lingchen said with a smile.

“Oh? You want to support me for the rest of my life?” Long Qinxue said carelessly.

“If you don't mind, what's the harm in supporting you for a lifetime?” Yang Lingchen said casually.

“This Palace has no interest in being a widow. Talk to me after you've dealt with Di Wuye!” Long Qinxue took a small sip of red wine.

“You have so little faith in me?” Yang Lingchen said helplessly.

“I heard Di Wuye has already devoured one dao body. Coupled with his original Heaven-Defying talent, how much chance do you think you have?” Long Qinxue's tone carried a hint of seriousness.

“No matter how many dao bodies he has devoured, there will only be one ultimate victor, and that is me, Yang Lingchen.” Yang Lingchen's gaze was incredibly firm.

He knew Yang Haotian had a total of Seven Dao Bodies. Five were already known to have appeared: Yang Tianlang, Lei Zhentian, Di Wuye, the dao body devoured by Di Wuye, and Yang Lingchen himself.

To deal with Yang Tianlang and Di Wuye, he needed to devour at least one dao body; otherwise, given his current strength and talent, it would be difficult to pose a threat to those two.

“If you can truly eliminate Di Wuye, this Palace will bear you a Dragon Baby.” Long Qinxue chirped playfully, her magnificent Immortal Face tinged with a blush.

“Then you are definitely going to bear this Dragon Baby.” Confidence shone in Yang Lingchen's eyes.

Following this, the two continued flying toward the Lion Demon Ridge. This time, Yang Lingchen was very mindful and did not press against her again.

Half a month passed in the blink of an eye.

On this day, the two finally arrived at the sphere of influence where Lion Demon Ridge was located.

After entering this area, Yang Lingchen and Long Qinxue changed their appearances and quietly infiltrated Lion Demon City.

Lion Demon Ridge and Myriad Demon City are forces of the same level. Normally, given the strength of Lion Demon Ridge, it shouldn't be possible for them to conquer Myriad Demon City.

The Lord of Lion Demon Ridge, Demon-Couping Lion, has a cultivation level at the Peak of the Heavenly Dao Realm Fifth Layer. With Yang Lingchen's current strength, without transforming, he has a certain chance of winning against an ordinary Heavenly Dao Realm Fifth Layer Cultivator, but if the opponent also possesses the ability for a Cross-Rank Challenge, then it is hard to say.

However, Yang Lingchen was not worried. After all, at a critical moment, he could transform and instantly kill the opponent.

To ensure safety, Yang Lingchen set up multiple Teleportation Arrays around the area before quietly infiltrating Lion Demon City.

Over the next few days, he remained hidden within Lion Demon City.

After confirming that no one could threaten him, Yang Lingchen began his Killing Spree.

Since your Lion Demon Ridge can massacre Myriad Demon City, this daddy can also destroy your Lion Demon Ridge.

“Go ahead and kill! This Palace will watch over you and guarantee that not a single Yao Beast escapes from Lion Demon Ridge.” Long Qinxue said.

“You don't need to worry about the Yao Beasts with lower cultivation levels. Just help me stop the high-level executives and the young generation of Geniuses from Lion Demon Ridge.” Yang Lingchen said.

“Then be careful.” Long Qinxue said.

Yang Lingchen flew into the air, appearing directly above Lion Demon City. With sharp eyes, he looked down and roared, “Demon-Couping Lion, get out here and face your death.”

Yang Lingchen's voice, laced with cold Killing Intent, instantly spread throughout the entire Lion Demon Ridge.

“Little Bastard, you truly seek death.”

Demon-Couping Lion, who was Cultivating in his Residence, suddenly shot out a sharp light from his eyes.

His figure flashed suddenly, and he instantly appeared in the Void Realm, his cold, sinister eyes staring intently at Yang Lingchen.

At the same time, the high-level executives of Lion Demon Ridge flew out from their respective Residences, forming an encirclement around Yang Lingchen.

“Little Bastard, you had a road to Heaven but refused to walk it, and instead barged into the gate of Hell! Today, This King will tear you into ten thousand pieces to comfort the soul of my son in Heaven.” Vicious Killing Intent shone in Demon-Couping Lion's eyes.

“F*ck your mother, go to Hell, Old Scoundrel!”

Yang Lingchen roared in anger, the dragon que sword left its sheath, and a cold Sword Qi tore through the sky, carrying a bloodthirsty Killing Intent as it swept toward the Demon-Couping Lion.

Since the opponent's strength had reached the Peak of the Heavenly Dao Realm Fifth Layer, Yang Lingchen's attack was the most vicious killing move.

“Seeking death.”

Facing Yang Lingchen's fierce sword strike, Demon-Couping Lion let out a low growl, his figure directly transforming into his main body, then he lunged and swiped a claw toward Yang Lingchen.

“Clang...!”

Yang Lingchen's Sword Qi heavily struck the Demon-Couping Lion's sharp claw, creating dazzling sparks.

In this exchange, neither party gained any advantage.

“Stinky brat, you have some skill. Take another claw strike from This King.”

Demon-Couping Lion roared furiously, and his massive, sharp Lion Claw swiped toward Yang Lingchen again.

Facing the Demon-Couping Lion who was pouncing again, Yang Lingchen held the sword in his right hand, while his left hand continuously cast Arcane Arts, instantly condensing a massive Sword Array in the air, which then shot toward the Demon-Couping Lion.

The Demon-Couping Lion, suspended in mid-air, quickly condensed a solid Protective Aura around his body. At the same time, the Scale Armor on his body protected his vital points, and his sharp claw continued to strike toward Yang Lingchen.

Yang Lingchen's Sword Rain landed in front of the Demon-Couping Lion, but it was all blocked by the opponent's Protective Aura and Scale Armor. Only a small portion of the Sword Rain pierced into the Demon-Couping Lion's body, but it did not cause significant damage.

At this moment, the Demon-Couping Lion's sharp claw had already reached Yang Lingchen.

In this critical moment, Yang Lingchen quickly took out the black cauldron and held it in front of him. At the same time, his right hand unleashed another Destructive Sword Qi.

“Bang...!”

Yang Lingchen was sent flying backward by the Demon-Couping Lion's claw strike, but his Destructive Sword Qi also directly severed the Demon-Couping Lion's small claw.

“Pfft...!”

Yang Lingchen spat out a mouthful of blood. He quickly consumed a healing pill, then swung the dragon que sword in his hand and slashed toward the Demon-Couping Lion.

“Little Bastard, This King is going to tear you apart alive.”

The Demon-Couping Lion roared furiously. The severe pain from his severed small claw completely enraged him.

He opened his massive, bloody maw and engulfed Yang Lingchen in a crushing, overwhelming manner.

“Go to Hell, Old Scoundrel!”

Yang Lingchen shouted coldly. The haotian cudgel instantly appeared in his hand, and he swiftly thrust it toward the Demon-Couping Lion's massive mouth.

In that instant, the haotian cudgel grew longer and thicker, its fierce staff energy seemingly about to pierce and explode the Demon-Couping Lion.
