Chapter. 8. The First Victim

The meeting at the City Lord's Mansion had passed. It was already evening. After receiving directions for identification from the City Lord, Yuan Liong came out just to take a look at Xia Yu City's nightlife.

He also intended to exchange some of his silver and gold pieces to suit the conditions of the medium of exchange at that time.

Yuan Liong also needed to change some of his outfits to newer ones. The suit he wore was too simple and mediocre. He realized that staying at the City Lord's Mansion would have to change his appearance more or less, or else he would be considered a new servant in the Mansion.

After passing through several small alleys, Yuan Liong saw the forging shop building which was still open. In this city, the forging shop provided several general services, such as selling weapons and exchanging various metals, including gold and silver.

Yuan Liong's gold and silver included very pure gold and silver with levels reaching one hundred percent purity, Yuan Liong only exchanged a few pieces of silver.

At that time one piece of silver was equivalent to twenty pieces of bronze. Yuan Liong also exchanged a few pieces of silver for a bag of bronze pieces, which would later be used as small coins to facilitate transactions.

Ever since the forging shop, he had felt a sense of trepidation and a sense of threateningly in his heart. Yuan Liong knew someone was aiming for his life from behind the darkness. He moved away from the crowd and missed towards the City Forest. The sense of threat is getting real, there are those who follow his journey.

Yuan Liong slid into the grove of trees, he hid and held his breath for a moment, to cover the tracks. There was no shadow following him.

“Strange, am I hallucinating?” thought Yuan Lion.

Come out of hiding, Already waiting in front of Yuan Liong two people. He recognized the two of them as the Skeleton Demon Pair, the ones who this morning had been messing with the City Lord's daughter.

The two of them laughed happily with a cruel look on their faces and a strong murderous scent.

“Kid! Your luck today is really good, the King of Hell is reluctant to part with you even for a day,” said the leader with a disdainful expression.

“This time there will be no one to save your soul brat! Say the last words, we will grant to deliver your little soul.” The Great Kingkong Demon continued while laughing happily.

Yuan Liong frowned, he would not be naive this time towards his own soul. At least the memory of his mother's death is still vivid. Demons like them are not to be pitied. For this time if it wasn't him who was killed then these demons would be the ones to die.

“My final wish is, the souls of you two,” replied Yuan Liong with a face crueler than these two devils.

“You toad who doesn't know how big the world is!” retorted the bandit leader as he unleashed a Bone Shrink Blow using half of his inner strength.

He was still trying to calculate the power level of the opponent.

Yuan Liong didn't want to give any leniency, he immediately emitted half of his internal energy. A squeaking sound and specks of silver splattered out from Yuan Liong's hands.

“Siiiuuuut! ...Baaam!” The squeaks and explosions of the fistfights were heard.

Both expend half of their internal energy, but because of the different internal realms, where Yuan Liong is in the Late Earth Realm, while the bandit leader is in the Intermediate Earth Realm.

A slight loss was received by the bandit leader, they were both thrown two steps back. The bandit leader's face was slightly numb, his face paled.

“Damn it! This kid is at the Peak of the Earth Realm. His inner strength is also very strange, with a squeaking sound and emitting a silvery light that stings like lightning. This kid must be eliminated immediately or he will become a troublesome threat in the future,” thought.

“I'm fighting. We mustn't underestimate this brat,” continued the bandit demon leader.

The Great Kingkong Demon immediately jumped into the battlefield without warning. He didn't dare underestimate a young opponent. Internal energy was immediately emitted. Both of them consistently used the Punch technique. Shrink, the combination of the two greatly troubled Yuan Liong.

Not wanting to be underestimated by the two devils, Yuan Liong exposed his inner strength to the full. Squeaks and silver sparks immediately lit up the dark night. The lightning energy in his hands seemed real.

Yuan Liong indeed doesn't have any punches and weapon skills. But ... the teachings of his late father have stuck in all his muscles and mind. It was not difficult for him to combine the power in this lightning element with the lightning technique of the Swallow Riding the Wind.

His body moved rapidly dodging every hit that came. With a silver light flickering in the darkness of the night. Yuan Liong managed to break every Bone Roaring Move.

The sky suddenly clouded with a storm and fierce thunderbolts began to strike forming beautiful silver cracks in the night sky. It was as if the heavens were on Yuan Liong's side.

After a hundred moves passed, Yuan Liong's breath began to catch on. The endurance is lost and the fighting experience is also lost. A fierce flash of lightning struck, and a tree was charred leaving blackened trunks and branches. The second lightning struck again.

“Duuaarrrrr!”

This time the eyes of the two devils went wide and stuck out their tongues. Just tonight, they noticed a strange thing happening. A sudden coldness invaded their bodies, an extremely gripping horror.

It was the first time in their life that they saw a human child catching lightning. Yes! The second lightning bolt was caught by Yuan Liong, then the energy spread throughout his body.

The cold feeling that the Great Kingkong felt was getting more and more real, he just realized that in his chest there was a feeling of air penetrating from back to front, a hole the size of a fist was visible there. In the shock, the Great Kingkong's vigilance decreased. The look in his eyes showed disbelief, he wasn't willing to die yet.

But ... whatever, the King of Hell had smiled happily at him first, and the Great Kingkong became the first victim of the hand of lightning.

“You should accompany your friends too!” Those words came from Yuan Liong's mouth, accompanied by a cold gaze.

The Bandit leader who saw his comrade dead snapped to his senses.

“Ha ha ha, I have also prepared a present for you.” He laughed loudly trying to hide his fear.

Punch moves Shrink again shown. This time, he urged Yuan Liong and tried to escape. But whatever the power, Yuan Lion is getting the upper hand.

In desperation, the scarlet face attacked Yuan Liong blindly, he already intended to die together. Yuan Liong, realizing this, dodged as best he could. With annoyance gathered energy into the full.

“Baaam! Duaaar!”

The sound of explosions from the internal forces shook the earth. The ground sank inward leaving a large circle like a large dried-up pond.

Yuan Liong was thrown up to ten spears, he bounced beautifully several times in the air and then just floated down to the ground, but his legs seemed to be shaking, Yuan Liong's face turned white, fresh blood seeped through his nose, and between his lips. Obviously, he was badly injured.

While on the other hand, the bandit leader was blown away like a broken kite. Continuing to hit the tree behind him, the body crumbled with the head shattered. The history of this pair of devils has ended and left the charming smile of the King of Hell.
