Chapter 24: Silhouette.

Edited by: Mochiusagi

“Am I going to die?”

In front of the Demon Subduing Tower, the Monk could only feel the Life Essence in his body being taken away from him.

The Monk’s name is Zhen Zhi. Although he belongs to the same generation as Su Qin, he had entered the Temple 30 years earlier.

“It’s a pity that I couldn’t even keep Junior Brothers safe…”

Zhen Zhi was getting weaker and weaker. He regrettably turned his head to look at the other younger Monks who had passed out.

He knew very well that after Shi Xue devoured his Life Essence, his Junior Brother’s would be next.

“I can’t die like this!”

“I at least have to notify the Abbot, or notify the Court Heads…”

Zhen Zhi struggled to stay conscious.

In this final struggle, Zhen Zhi saw an unforgettable scene.

He saw a slender and fuzzy silhouette walk towards the Demon Subduing Tower.

At the beginning, this fuzzy silhouette was still a kilometer away; but with each step, the silhouette would cross several hundred meters and soon came to the front of the Demon Subduing Tower in just a moment.

“Someone is coming?”

By this time, Zhen Zhi’s consciousness finally gave out and he fell into darkness.

At the last moment before his consciousness completely fell into darkness, Zhen Zhi heard the voice of Shi Xue; both surprised and angry: “Damn, who are you?!”

…

Su Qin glanced at Zhen Zhi, who had finally passed out after struggling hard, and then turned his gaze to Shi Xue, who wore a vigilant face.

“Who are you?”

“When did the Shaolin Temple have such a Master?”

Shi Xue’s expression was grave.

That’s because with just a wave of this newcomer’s hand, it crushed his Demonic Energy. This shows just how terrifying this newcomer’s strength was.

Before entering the Demon Subduing Tower, Shi Xue had already checked all the Upper Realm Martial Artists in the Shaolin Temple.

And there was simply no person like this newcomer.

“You don’t need to know.”

Su Qin sighed softly: “You finally escaped, why didn’t you just leave the Shaolin Temple and instead caused all this?”

Although Su Qin has never regarded himself as a real Monk, his stay in the Shaolin Temple in the last ten years made Su Qin just unable to watch the Shaolin Temple disciples be slaughtered.

Moreover, Zhen Zhi has a good relationship with him.

“Why do you care?” Shi Xue icily said, as his eyes slightly narrowed.

Although Su Qin threatened him, Shi Xue found that Su Qin looked very young.

For such a young Monk, even if he began to practice Martial Arts from his mother’s womb, coupled with the supply of various resources from the Shaolin Temple, he still shouldn’t be in the Upper Realm.

Hence how could he be the opponent of Shi Xue?

As for the reason why his Demonic Energy was broken by Su Qin raising his hand just now, was probably because he was not yet able to perfectly control his Internal Strength.

That’s all.

“Presumably you should be the secretly cultivated genius of the Shaolin Temple?”

“Unfortunately, this Ancestor likes to kill geniuses the most!”

Shi Xue’s eyes were cruel, and the aura within his body surged again.

Since his relationship with the Shaolin Temple was already irreconcilable, in this case, it is a good thing to kill a Shaolin Temple genius in advance.

“This Ancestor’s aura was unstable just now, that’s why you managed to find a weak spot. But how about now? Can you still crush the Demonic Energy of this Ancestor?”

With every word of Shi Xue, the pressure in the air became stronger. When he finished, the surroundings were already filled with Demonic Energy.

Shi Xue used the Demonic Art from the Grade 1 Great Demon that’s on the Demon Subduing Tower’s 9th floor.

[Sky Demon Domain]!

To use this Technique, one has to be at least an Upper Realm Demon.

Inside the domain, Shi Xue’s strength would be increased by several percent, while the enemy’s will be suppressed and restrained.

“Time is running out.”

Su Qin felt that there were several aura’s coming here and shook his head slightly.

It should be Abbot Hui Wen and the Court Heads. They found that something was wrong, and were moving towards the Demon Subduing Tower.

“Time is running out?”

Shi Xue was stunned, then he showed a sneer: “Yes, YOUR time is running out.”

And the next moment.

Shi Xue stretched out his right hand and slowly pressed it towards Su Qin.

Almost instantaneously, a large amount of Demonic Energy came down to Su Qin.

“This is this Ancestor’s strongest move, it might not be as good as if a Grade 1 Great Demon…”

Shi Xue was proud and was about to continue babbling.

However.

The next scene happened, and Shi Xue’s words seemed to have become stuck in his throat. His face also changed greatly.

He saw the thick Demonic Energy within three feet of Su Qin, instantly evaporating and turning into nothingness.

“Impossible!”

“IMPOSSIBLE!!!”

Shi Xue was terrified.

Although Buddhist Cultivation Techniques restrains Demonic Cultivation Techniques, no matter how restrained it is, it is still impossible to evaporate it without contact.

This was no longer ‘restraining’.

This was squashing, a thorough stomping!

Without waiting for him to react.

Su Qin stepped forward and appeared in front of Shi Xue.

“Not good!”

“Run!!”

Shi Xue’s scalp instantly tingled.

At this moment, Shi Xue would be a fool if he didn’t know that Su Qin’s strength was far above his.

“A Grade 1!”

“He’s at least a Grade 1 Great Grandmaster!”

“When did the Shaolin Temple give birth to such a young Grade 1 Great Grandmaster?!”

Shi Xue had endless regrets in his heart at this moment.

If he knew that the Shaolin Temple had a Grade 1 Great Grandmaster, even giving him ten times the courage, he would not dare to sneak into the Shaolin Temple like this!

“It’s too late to run.”

When Su Qin saw that Shi Xue wanted to run, he raised his right hand and punched Shi Xue.

Although this punch was sluggish and slow, he doesn’t know why, but Shi Xue just can’t escape from it.

The punch seemed to be carrying a huge amount of strength, and it made it impossible for him to move the slightest.

Pu chi!

Under Shi Xue’s desperate gaze, Su Qin’s fist slowly imprinted itself on him.

In an instant, terrifying strength destroyed Shi Xue internal organs and his meridians.

“You?!”

Shi Xue spewed out blood and slowly fell to the ground.

…

…

After a while.

Shua!

Abbot Hui Wen appeared outside the Demon Subduing Tower.

“There’s Demonic Energy outside the Demon Subduing Tower. I am afraid that a Demon has escaped.”

Abbot Hui Wen was worried and quickly rushed over as quickly as possible.

“In the last decades, the Demon Subduing Tower has stayed solid and had no problems…” Abbot Hui Wen’s expression was ugly.

If the Demon Subduing Tower really had a problem, and a Demon escaped, it would be an unprecedented disaster for the entire Shaolin Temple!

Those monsters have been imprisoned for so many years, and their resentment towards Shaolin Temple can simply be imagined. Once they escape, the first thing they will do is probably slaughter the Shaolin Temple occupants!

However.

When Abbot Hui Wen rushed to the Demon Subduing Tower and saw everything in front of him clearly, he fell into a daze.

Although the 108 Monks had fainted, laying on the ground, their aura was stable and they were obviously still alive.

While the corpse of Shi Xue was laying quietly not far away, with a trace of deep fear remaining in his expression.
