The Simple Life of Killing Demons - Book 12: Chapter 60

Volume 12 Chapter 60 : Wish To Crush You

“Come on, come on.” Yalide waved at the steel-armored dark insect.

Like a bull being provoked by a gladiator’s red cloth, the steel-armored dark insect lowered its head, pointed at Yalide with its newly-grown horns, and charged towards her at an extremely swift speed.

Yalide stood there with her arms crossed, smiling as she shook her head, while the spirit soldiers behind her supported Hawke to make a quick escape.

“Oh, actually, it’s safest to hide behind me.” After Yalide finished speaking, the sharp horns of the steel-armored dark insect came over.

“Bong!” There was a loud noise, and a wave of dust was set off at the same time. The surrounding low demons were blown away by the air current, and the spirit soldiers could hardly stand still. The ground seemed to be shaking violently.

Looking at the steel-armored dark insect, it had sunk deep into the ground at that moment, and a large hand of dark energy was pressing on its carapace.

“Remember, insects are meant to be slapped.” Yalide turned around and said to the spirits.

“Oh!!!”

In the eyes of the spirit soldiers, the steel-armored dark insect with super defensive power and devoured their comrades was beaten to the ground with a single move by Yalide. They all let out deafening cheers.

At the same time, it also greatly aroused their hearts of victory. With that woman there, it would definitely work!

The soldiers did not care whether Yalide was using dark energy or not, as long as she was on their side, that was fine. In addition, some soldiers knew Yalide, because Yalide had been running around in the city before, while teasing female spirits and so on.

“Who’s that?”

“Sir Lin Xiang’s sister!”

“She’s amazing! I just found out that I like her!”

“Don’t think about it, how can a strong person like her like you?”

After hearing what his companions said, a certain soldier made a determined effort. He was exhausted just now, but at present, he seemed to have endless strength. He probably wanted to prove to his companion that he could do it, or maybe he wanted to make Yalide pay more attention to him.

Many spirits were also fascinated by Yalide, after all, they had never seen such a powerful and beautiful woman, so they fought bravely.

“Eek!” The steel-armored dark insect let out a scream and kept swinging its legs, but it could not get up as it was crushed tightly by the dark energy hand.

“Can you still move?” Yalide raised her hand, while the dark energy hand also rose. The steel-armored demonic insect wanted to take the opportunity to get up, but Yalide slammed her hand down one more time.

“Bong!” The powerful force made the ground shake again.

“Hey, what’s going on? Isn’t that fellow supposed to be on our side?” Gale stared at Yalide closely.

“Hmm…” Death Demon pondered, “The aura on her body is so pure, like pure darkness. This is too strange.”

“In city of the demon realm, I don’t recall such a character exists. Not to mention, she has no reason to help the spirits. While Potter’s fighting her, let’s observe again. She’s strange.” Shadowar said.

Raquel‘s eyes slightly opened and glanced at Yalide, before closing them again.

————

The steel-armored dark insect (Potter) was very troubled. As a demonic insect of nobility, no matter how high its intelligence was, it would still feel bad if it kept getting swatted by Yalide. Annoyed, it got into the ground at once.

“Hmm? Is little bug going home?” Yalide withdrew her hand of dark energy. She had already made a three-meter-deep oval mark on the ground. That oval mark was the shape of the steel-armored demonic insect’s body, which was five meters long.

The low demons did not dare to provoke Yalide, because Yalide’s aura left them terrified, and with little IQ, they also knew that it was impossible to beat Yalide, so they had to fight the spirit soldiers while retreating, worried that Yalide would involve them. Low demons were afraid of death, but it was due to that distraction that gave the spirit soldiers a chance to gain the upper hand and pursue them. As for the demon soldiers of the demon clan, their IQ was not as high as that of low demons, so they did not fear death. In other words, when they see powerful people, they would immediately pounce on them.

Therefore, while the low demons retreated, the demon soldiers advanced. They were much more evil than low demons, with a violent, murderous and ferocious aura all over their bodies.

There were more than fifty skeletons resembling the skeleton warriors. They pulled out some shabby knives and pointed them at Yalide.

“What is it? Wanna dance?”

“Guu yaa.” With a low growl, the skeleton warriors began to besiege Yalide.

The minds of the skeleton warriors seemed to be connected, because they had such well-coordinated attacks. No matter how rich in combat experience a person had, if their speed and reaction was not quick enough, they would definitely be injured by the never-ending slash of blades. After the body got cut, the body would pause for a moment, but more pauses would lead to more cuts from the blades.

However…

Yalide wandered around in the shadows of swords and light of blades, leisurely, like she was really dancing. Her body swayed rhythmically, one step forward, one step back, left step and right step. From time to time, she even pointed out to the skeleton warrior, “This one’s accuracy is not good. This one is not strong enough, have you eaten yet? This one’s too slow. Sigh, take a look at mine instead.”

“Ah da!” With a sweep of Yalide’s leg, afterimages were leaving behind.

“Patak patak.” In a row in front of her, there were almost ten skeleton warriors smashed to pieces.

“You guys need to some calcium supplements, such brittle bones.”

“Guu yaa!” A skeleton warrior that looked like the captain let out a low growl, and a group of skeleton archers appeared out of nowhere. Lifting their bows and pulling the bowstrings, they fired the arrows.

The rusty deadwood arrows, appearing to be of certain age, were shot from the sky.

“Using arrows… hmm?”

The ground shook slightly, and Yalide could feel that something was coming out from below.

“Be careful! It’s that fellow!” As an earth spirit, Hawke knew very well that the reason for the ground’s violent shaking was due to the steel-armored demonic insect.

Skeleton warriors surrounded Yalide. They were not afraid of being shot by arrows, because death was a kind of glory for the demon clan. Of course, the premise was to kill the enemy and die together.

“Am I being attacked from all sides now?” Yalide laughed. As arrows rained down from the sky, the needle-like claws of the steel-armored demonic insect also came stabbing from the ground. The surrounding skeleton warriors were also rushing towards her without the fear of death.

“Jiu~” A ball of black light flashed across them. The three attacking parties from different directions collided together, sending dust flying everywhere.

“Please don’t be hurt! My Goddess!” Seeing that, the spirit, who said he liked Yalide, burst into rage, and surprisingly killed off the two low demons standing in front of him, before he ran towards the dust, the place Yalide once stood. However, it was not long before he stopped.

“Eek” The figure of the steel-armored dark insect was the most obvious in the dust, because it was as big as a hillock. It was seen shaking a skull in its needle-like claws as it looked around.

Some scattered skeleton warriors on the ground also began to reassemble their bones and stood up.

When the smoke and dust dissipated, there was no sign of Yalide in the same location.

“Where did she go?” Hawke did not see any sign of Yalide escaping the situation at all, not even a single shadow of hers was seen. Judging from the reaction of the steel-armored demonic insect, it must have missed her. Could it be that she used earth magic?

“Hhong!” The steel-armored demonic insect looked for Yalide high and low, where all of a sudden, pain came from its carapace and the whole bug sank into the ground again. A dark energy hand swatted it down with force.

If it were other attacks, the steel-armored insect might not feel any pain. However, every time the hand of dark energy slapped it, it caused great shock to its internal organs, while its newly-grown spikes on its body broke.

The surrounding skeleton warriors that just stood up shattered due to the air pressure when the dark energy hand went down.

Yalide appeared from above, did a backflip, and landed firmly on the ground.

It drew applause from the spirit soldiers.

“Did you guys see that!!! That fellow seems to have mastered the power of space!” Gale said in shock.

From the moment when Yalide was surrounded, till the instant the black light flashed, Gale clearly saw that Yalide made a circle with her hand, and she walked into a special space. That made the attack of the demon soldiers fall through. After that, she reappeared in the sky above Potter and took a hard shot.

“Yes, I saw that. Her whole body seems to be composed of dark energy, but that energy isn’t strong. Moves similar to that just now can’t be used that many times.” Shadowar analyzed, “I wonder what sort of relationship she has with Catherine…”

“Whatever! It’s rare to have someone who can fight, let’s go! We’ll finish her and let the little ones attack the city. Let’s have a quick battle.”

“Hmph, I have no objections.” Death Demon rarely agreed with Gale’s words.

“I’m not going, really, you guys go. Let me sleep for a while.” Raquel was lazy and unmotivated.

“As for me, I’d like to keep observing.” Shadowar spoke before pressing his head to one side of his ear, as if talking to someone, “Well, you see, I have encountered some trouble here, maybe need some backup. Those lowly demons are too unreliable.”

The chivalry of the spirits reached its peak again, while the lowly demons began to show signs of retreating.

“Yes, let our demon soldiers come over. By the way, bring in more transit insects. Judging from the soldiers in this city, there should be a lot of spirits. Alright, hurry up.”

Shadowar was part of the Shadowmen family in the demon clan. For Shadowmen, as long as there were shadows, it could be a medium to transmit their words, so they could communicate with their companions who were also part of Shadowmen in the distance.

“Hmph, the two of us can do without you.” Gale looked at Death Demon, “You going?”

“After you.”

……

Yalide’s energy hand picked up the steel-armored demonic insect, while it kept struggling. It had strong defense and high destructive power with considerably fast speed. It could be said to be a demon of the demon clan with perfect attributes, the malefic in other’s eyes. However, in face of Yalide, all its abilities were invalid.

“Ah, it’s a pity that I don’t have enough energy, otherwise I really wish to crush you! Damn bug.” There was a strange red light in Yalide’s eyes. If Lin Xiang was there, he would definitely feel chills down his spine, because it was the first time Yalide showed such a horrifying expression.

She recalled an event that made her suffer.

A shadow of the wind came silently behind Yalide. With a blade that was condensed by whirlwind, it came dashing towards Yalide’s neck.
