Thud!

The spirit beast beside Ye Qiu was also like a bird startled by the twang of a bow. It fell from the sky and lay on the ground, unable to move.

As for Ye Qiu, even though he could barely support himself to stand, he felt as if a mountain was pressing down on his chest, and he was unable to breathe. He could not even muster up any strength.

At the moment, he was absolutely shocked. He never imagined encountering the Demon Child who destroyed the Heavenly Water Pavilion here.

On the way here, while he was resting and drinking tea in Qingyang City, he heard the surrounding people talking about the destruction of the Heavenly Water Pavilion by the demon child.

At that time, he was shocked, but he also doubted the authenticity of the news.

Now, however, he could feel the pressure and aura emitted by the demonic child.

Ye Qiu now believed that the demon child was the only one who could have destroyed Heavenly Water Pavilion.

He was too terrifying!

Although he looked like a child, he was like an insurmountable mountain that was impossible to defy.

He was also like a demon god that had descended into the world, causing one’s heart to tremble and one’s body to go cold.

Ye Qiu was like an ant in front of him, a lone boat in the middle of a raging storm. His heart was filled with despair and fear.

He knew that he was probably going to die today.

Although he knew that Li Yu was powerful, this demon child was a monster who had just destroyed the entire Heavenly Water Pavilion alone.

Probably no one in the entire Great Xia Dynasty was his match, let alone the 17-year-old Li Yu.

Surely all of them would die today.

At this moment, Li Yu also had a trace of surprise on his face.

However, he was not surprised by how terrifying and powerful this demonic child was.

The system interface popped up in front of him again.

There was information regarding the demon child on it.

At the bottom were the bold red words: [You can obtain 15 Prestige Points by killing the Demon Child.]

He had killed Shi Potian for only 3 points and 1 point for killing those bandits from the Juyi Hall.

And this demonic child was already worth 15 prestige points.

Holy shit, so this is a big boss.

Li Yu instantly became serious.

Thud!

Under this torrential demonic pressure, Ye Qiu finally could not withstand it anymore and knelt on the ground.

He felt as if his body was about to collapse. It was as if the pressure was sufficient to crush him to death.

Meanwhile, Tang Chi and the bandits could not withstand the pressure anymore and faint.

In an instant, only Li Yu remained standing on the spot without moving.

The Demon Child looked at Li Yu in surprise, his eyes revealing a trace of excitement.

He could actually stand firm under my presence. This brat got some strength.

“Hahaha, I never expected that there would be a surprise in this inconspicuous Daoist temple. Kid, you are outstanding. I’m going to kill you! ”

The demon child’s smile became even more ferocious and terrifying.

He liked to kill, but he preferred to kill experts.

Stepping on ants was definitely different from the pleasure of killing a dragon.

Therefore, seeing that Li Yu seemed powerful, the demon child was truly incomparably excited.

He felt that he could finally have some fun and slowly torture this kid to death.

Eat his meat, drink his blood, and devour his soul…

The more the demonic child thought about it, the more excited he became. His laughter became increasingly sharp and sinister, like a demon from the netherworld that gave one the creeps.

Li Yu didn’t say a word as he withdrew the sword behind him, and his figure instantly vanished on the spot.

As the air exploded, Li Yu seemed to contain the power of heaven and earth as he pressed down on the demon child.

The demon child’s laughter stopped abruptly as his expression changed drastically. He hurriedly retreated as a sense of death that he had never felt before arose.

Although Li Yu did not release any magic power or aura, it still gave him a palpitating pressure.

Fear.

This was a feeling he had never experienced before. Ever since he was born, he had never experienced what fear was. He had always been the one who brought fear, death, and destruction to others.

However, the moment Li Yu rushed over, he sensed it.

It was an instinctive fear.

This person was superior and more terrifying than him…

Bang!

Li Yu swung his sword. It was an ordinary strike, but it shook heaven and earth.

A black rift was torn open in the space, and it was like a black bolt of lightning that instantly swept towards the demonic child.

The demon child’s blood eyes widened as all the hair on his body stood up. A bone-chilling cold swept through his body.

The shadow of death pressed down like a giant hand from the heavens. He suddenly experienced the feelings of those he had killed.

“No, don’t…”

He cried out in terror, wanting to escape, but he was instantly enveloped by the sword’s blast. The terrifying destructive power immediately tore apart the domain around him, tearing apart his body and the entire sky.

Boom!

The void was like a shattered mirror as it collapsed. Countless cracks spread as the surrounding space began to collapse. The terrifying devouring power sucked the demon child, torn apart by the sword’s blast, into it.

The Demon Child’s broken body transformed into countless ferocious ghosts. He screamed miserably and struggled to escape.

However, a black pearl and a small translucent sword surfaced from the demon child’s dispersed body.

Li Yu’s eyes flashed as he sped over and grabbed the two items.

“Ding… successful collection of natural oddities: Demon Spirit Pearl.”

“Ding… successful collection of divine weapon: Sky Water Sword.”

The system’s voice sounded.

At the same time, the collection of natural oddities increased to 1 / 10.

The mission progress of the divine weapon collection became 3 / 20.

Delight surfaced in Li Yu’s eyes. He did not expect this Boss to drop such good items, helping him obtain two treasures at once.

In the sky, the terrifying space devouring power sucked the demon child’s body and demonic qi into the collapsed space and disappeared.

Soon, the collapsed space rapidly recovered. When the sky returned to normal, everything calmed down.

With the demon child dead, the demonic aura dissipated, the suppression disappeared.

Ye Qiu, who had a mountain of pressure on him, felt as if a heavy burden had been lifted from his shoulders. He was like a drowning person who had climbed onto the shore and finally caught his breath.

His face was still filled with shock and fear.

However, it was no longer because of the demon child. It was because of Li Yu.

Li Yu’s sword had actually shattered the sky.

The Demon Child, who had annihilated the entire Heavenly Water Pavilion, had actually been insta-killed by him.

Is he even human?

The shock in Ye Qiu’s heart could no longer be described with words.

When he looked at Li Yu again, he was left with reverence and admiration for him.

Ye Qiu had always been a proud person. Born with extraordinary talent, he felt that he was the chosen one.

He had never submitted to anyone, nor did he admire anyone before.

In his opinion, as long as he worked hard, he could surpass and defeat anyone.

At the moment, though, after facing Li Yu, his pride collapsed, and his confidence had dispersed.

This person’s powers seemed to be something he could never surpass no matter how hard he tried.

He finally understood why the Heavenly Dao Rankings would bestow an additional reward to Li Yu.

After all, Li Yu was not on the same level as ordinary people like him.

Li Yu was on the Hidden Dragon Rankings only because he was in the same age group.

If there was a power ranking, he would probably rank top too.

In the entire Xia Dynasty, or even in this world, there was probably no one who could compete with him.
