Chapter 2173: Chapter 1904: You Brought This Upon Yourself (Part 2)

"Song Yun, run!"

Just then, a crisp shout rang out.

He Sui couldn’t hold back and stepped out from within the stone wall.

She gripped the protective talisman in her hand, poised to strike at the One-eyed Demon Wolf.

"Stop."

Song Yun hurriedly stopped her; he had no intention of wasting a life-saving talisman.

Hearing his words, He Sui couldn’t help freezing for a moment.

And in that very instant of her distraction, the One-eyed Demon Wolf snapped at Song Yun, its huge maw engulfing his entire upper body, razor-sharp teeth stabbing into Song Yun’s back.

Whoosh whoosh whoosh...

In that moment, a violent whirlwind kicked up the dust all around, sand and rocks flying, completely obscuring the view.

"He’s dead!"

He Tiansheng and He Ji’s eyes lit up at once, their faces full of excitement.

Song Yun had been bitten into the One-eyed Demon Wolf’s mouth; they didn’t believe there was any way he could still be alive.

"Brother Tiansheng, let’s get out of here."

Seeing how powerful the One-eyed Demon Wolf was, He Ji still felt lingering fear; he turned around, ready to flee.

He Tiansheng grabbed him, his gaze sliding toward He Sui standing before the stone wall. With a sinister smile, he said, "Everything is within our control—why would we leave? Heh, heh. Soon He Sui will use the talisman to kill the One-eyed Demon Wolf. When Song Yun and the beast are both dead, we can take our time playing with He Sui. All the treasures on her and Song Yun will be ours. And we can enter that stone wall and explore whatever’s inside!"

Hearing He Tiansheng’s words, a sharp gleam flashed through He Ji’s eyes. He looked at He Sui, greed thick in his gaze, already a little impatient.

He Tiansheng slapped He Ji’s back. "Come on, we’ll quietly move next to He Sui now. As soon as she kills the One-eyed Demon Wolf, we’ll immediately subdue her."

He Ji nodded, and the two of them immediately began edging toward He Sui.

At that moment He Sui was standing there in a daze and didn’t notice the movements of He Tiansheng and the other.

"Chen... Song Yun, you... what on earth did you do?"

"No, this is all my fault, all my fault!"

Watching the flying sand and rocks, He Sui’s lips trembled, and tears streamed down her cheeks.

She regretted ever listening to Song Yun and hiding inside the stone wall.

If not, she could have used the talisman and Song Yun wouldn’t have died.

But now, it was all too late.

Song Yun had fallen into the wolf’s jaws—could there still be any chance of survival?

"One-eyed Demon Wolf, I’ll kill you and avenge Song Yun!"

He Sui wiped away her tears, a rare vicious glint flashing in her eyes. She tightened her grip on the talisman, ready to attack.

"Awoo... awoo..."

But right then, a wolf’s howl rang out—yet it was a cry of pain.

At the same time, the violent whirlwind suddenly dispersed, revealing Song Yun and the One-eyed Demon Wolf at the center of where the gale had been.

The scene before their eyes was completely unexpected.

The One-eyed Demon Wolf and Song Yun had somehow separated by two meters. Its razor-sharp teeth had actually snapped; only half its fangs remained in its mouth, fresh blood pouring out.

Song Yun’s clothes were pierced by the wolf’s teeth, but his body hadn’t taken any damage at all.

By his feet lay two broken segments of the Demon Wolf’s fangs.

When the One-eyed Demon Wolf bit down just now, it had actually shattered its own teeth.

"How is that possible?!"

He Tiansheng and He Ji’s faces changed drastically, their eyes full of terror; they simply couldn’t believe what they were seeing.

Song Yun—was he even human?

What in the world was his body made of?

The One-eyed Demon Wolf, in the midst of it all, stared at Song Yun, its gaze filled with shock and fear. It couldn’t understand why this human, clearly only at the late stage of the sss level, had a body so hard.

The next instant, the One-eyed Demon Wolf no longer dared to fight; it turned to run.

But before it could take even half a step, Song Yun grabbed its tail, yanking it back, then drove a fist straight down at the One-eyed Demon Wolf’s head.

There was nothing fancy about that punch.

Yet it carried the feeling of tearing mountains from their roots and overwhelming the world, its momentum so fierce it seemed like it could even shatter a peak.

Bang—boom.

The One-eyed Demon Wolf’s head was smashed to pieces on the spot, red and white matter spraying out. The Demon Wolf collapsed at Song Yun’s feet, dead where it lay.

A fist-sized sphere shot out—it was the inner core of the One-eyed Demon Wolf.

Song Yun grabbed the inner core and put it away.

The three beside him were all dumbfounded. A Foundation Establishment Demon Beast in Early-stage Foundation Establishment had just been killed with one punch by late-stage SSS-rank Song Yun?

This... doesn’t make sense at all!

"How is this possible? How could he insta-kill a Foundation Establishment Demon Beast?!"

He Tiansheng was stunned, eyes wide, his mind buzzing, feeling as if his entire worldview had just been overturned.

You had to know that even among the geniuses in Taoyuan, there weren’t many as fierce as Song Yun.

What did that mean?

It meant that in the outside world, where Spiritual Energy was thin and resources scarce, for Song Yun to have this level of strength, he was even more monstrous than the geniuses of Taoyuan.

On the other side, He Sui was also shocked. She looked at the calmly aloof Song Yun, suddenly grinned, and muttered, "He was right. He can do it. Next time, I’ll definitely believe what he says."

"Hurry up and grab He Sui, get into the stone wall—we’re no match for this guy!"

He Tiansheng snapped back to his senses and nervously barked at He Ji beside him.

The two quickened their pace, sprinting toward He Sui.

"Hmph!"

Song Yun snorted coldly, having already noticed their movements.

His figure flickered as he used Phantom Step, rushing toward He Sui as well.

By this time, He Ji had already reached He Sui and slashed a claw toward her.

He wasn’t thinking about keeping any witnesses alive anymore; right now he only wanted to snatch the Ice Crystal Holy Grail from He Sui’s hand and escape into the stone wall.

He Ji struck with a boom; catching her off guard, He Sui was about to be injured.

At that moment, Song Yun, who had moved later but arrived first, appeared in front of He Sui, shielding her behind him.

"This is how you treat your own people?"

Song Yun looked at He Ji with contempt and slammed a punch out.

Bang—boom.

He Ji couldn’t possibly withstand Song Yun’s attack. He didn’t even manage a scream before his whole body burst into a cloud of blood-mist; his upper body was blasted into pulp, blood splattering everywhere.

Not far away, He Tiansheng’s face went deathly pale; he didn’t even dare to charge in.

He immediately turned tail and ran toward the Longxuan Sect passage, his speed surpassing his previous limits.

"Trying to run?!"

A mocking smile curled at Song Yun’s lips. He casually grabbed a rock from beside him and hurled it at He Tiansheng.

With his immense strength, the rock was like a cannonball, slamming into He Tiansheng’s back and shattering into gravel.

Crack.

He Tiansheng’s spine snapped with a crisp sound. He lunged forward, sprawling onto the ground.

Song Yun caught up, stomped his foot down on He Tiansheng’s back, looking down on him as he said sternly, "When you were screwing me over before, you never thought it would end like this, did you? Back then I saved your life; now this life of yours has to be paid back."

As his voice fell, Song Yun raised his foot and stomped down toward He Tiansheng.

"Song Yun, stop!"

Right then, He Sui rushed over, shouting to halt him.

Song Yun’s foot froze in midair and did not come down.

A rank stench of urine wafted up. He Tiansheng’s crotch was soaked—at that instant, he had literally pissed himself in terror.

He Tiansheng looked at He Sui, trembling as he begged, "He Sui, save me. We’re from the same clan—we both carry the He name! I was wrong, I shouldn’t have tried to harm Song Yun, please spare me."

He Sui gave He Tiansheng a contemptuous glance, then said to Song Yun, "Song Yun, I know what He Tiansheng did was really out of line, but he’s still my cousin in the end. I’m asking you, please let him go."

Song Yun was not someone soft-hearted, nor would he easily change his mind just because a woman asked him to.

He looked at He Sui and said calmly, "If I let He Tiansheng go, do you know what will happen? Once he gets back to Taoyuan, even if no one avenges him, as long as he spreads the word that I possess a broken Spiritual Artifact, people from Taoyuan will swarm over. Forget living a peaceful life—I’d be lucky just to stay alive."

These words did make sense.

He Sui fell silent for a moment, then shook her head at He Tiansheng. "All of this—you brought it on yourself."

Just then, Song Yun’s foot came down.

Crack.

He Tiansheng’s neck was stomped broken. His eyes bulged wide, and his breath was gone.

He Sui felt her heart jolt violently, silently looking at Song Yun without saying anything more.

"Anyone who wants me dead—I’ll never let them go." Song Yun glanced at He Sui, said this faintly, and walked toward the Longxuan Sect passage.
