"Hehehe!"
In the midst of the ghostly laughter, the Blue Blood Demon surprisingly ignored Lei Jiang heading towards it. It suddenly soared, transforming into a blue streak of light and instantly leapt over Lei Jiang, lunging straight towards Zhao Yan.
It still remembered this woman, who had previously escaped from its grasp.
It took Zhao Yan as its primary target for attack immediately.
"Be careful, Zhao Yan!"
Lei Jiang's eyes were filled with fury, his throat almost broke out from his desperate calling. At the same time, he disregarded everything, rushed towards Zhao Yan and launched a Thunder Rush Palm at the back of the Blue Blood Demon to save her.
He absolutely didn't expect the Blue Blood Demon would bypass him to attack Zhao Yan.
Moreover, he didn't expect to fail to stop the Blood Demon.
"I..."
Zhao Yan clearly didn't know what was happening and could not fathom why the Blue Blood Demon would ignore Lei Jiang and attack her instead.
Typically, whether it's a Blood Demon, Zombies, or even Humans, under normal circumstances, they would first attack whoever attacks them.
Who knew this Blue Blood Demon would completely break the tradition by bypassing Lei Jiang to target her first.
Overwhelmed with sudden shock, she couldn't even offer any resistance.
Besides, the speed of the Blue Blood Demon was too fast. Unprepared Zhao Yan hadn't even reacted yet when the Blue Blood Demon had already reached her.
Ah Qing and Gang Shou hadn't reacted in time either. Even though they were the closest to Zhao Yan, they couldn't manage to rescue her in time.
Actually, even if they reacted in time to rescue her, it would have been futile. With their levels of power, they could never save Zhao Yan from the Blue Blood Demon. Perhaps they could have had a chance with a Green Blood Demon.
"Hehe!"
The Blue Blood Demon laughed gruesomely, stretching out its Ghost Claw. It clawed toward Zhao Yan's Heavenly Crown.
This is the Blood Demon's favorite move. When fighting with humans, it preferred to attack the human's Heavenly Crown first.
If the Heavenly Crown was pierced, the Ghost blood would corrode the brain. Even the strongest of fighters would die on the spot.
The Blood Demon moved too quickly for Zhao Yan, who only had time to close her eyes.
In her despair, she had already given up resisting and was just waiting for death.
"No!"
Lei Jiang, who was a step late, gave a desperate roar, like a wounded beast.
"Boom!"
The Thunder Rush Palm struck the back of the Blue Blood Demon, accompanied by a loud 'rumbling' noise of thunder.
This effect was native to his thunderous Inner Energy and thunderous martial arts. It shares similarities with Xiao Mu's Thunder Pattern Sword but differed in that the thunder power it contained was evidently less than that of Xiao Mu's Thunder Pattern Sword. Even so, it should not be underestimated.
"Hehe!"
Even the Blue Blood Demon dared not to take the full brunt of Lei Jiang's Thunder Rush Palm. It leaped out with a weird call, its Ghost Claw still clawing toward Zhao Yan's Heavenly Crown.
"Zhao Yan! Zhao Yan!"
The moment the Ghost Claw landed on Zhao Yan's Heavenly Crown, Lei Jiang was filled with despair, repeatedly shouting Zhao Yan's name.
Unexpectedly...
The moment the Ghost Claw fell.
Hmm!
Suddenly, a Golden Light flashed on Zhao Yan, and instantly when the Ghost Claw descended, a set of peculiar standard armor appeared on Zhao Yan, covering her whole body.
Sss!
The Ghost Claw that was aimed at Zhao Yan's Heavenly Crown was unexpectedly blocked by this peculiar standard armor, producing the sound of corrosion.
Simultaneously, after taking the blow from the Ghost Claw, the peculiar standard armor on Zhao Yan burned and immediately evaporated into a mist, disappearing without a trace.
Lei Jiang was stunned.
Zhao Yan was stunned.
Gang Shou and Ah Qing were both stunned.
Even the Blue Blood Demon was stunned.
No one expected that the moment the Ghost Claw hit Zhao Yan, a strange protective Armor would appear on Zhao Yan. This protective Armor had blocked the attack of the Blue Blood Demon.
"It's him."
The next moment, Lei Jiang seemed to realize something and cried out loudly.
"He did it."
Gang Shou and Ah Qing also realized it. It must be the thing that Xiao Mu threw at Zhao Yan before he left.
At that time, they didn't know what Xiao Mu had thrown, and even Zhao Yan didn't perceive it. Unexpectedly, after taking a hit from the Blood Demon, the effect of that thing had actually manifested, transforming into spirit armor, and blocked the Blood Demon's blow.
Zhao Yan displayed a face full of gratitude, yet it was mingled with a strong disbelief, "How...how did he know the Blood Demon would attack me first?"
Logically, the Blood Demon should have targeted the one who attacked it first as the primary target. It should have attacked Lei Jiang first.
She clearly didn't expect that the Blood Demon, from whom she had escaped last time, remembered her face.
"Quickly! All of you move away, I'll hold up the Blood Demon. You all take the opportunity to leave."
In the first instant when he realised, Lei Jiang had already used his Thunder Rush Palm repeatedly, creating echoes of thunder, constantly attacking the Blood Demon.
"Heh-heh!"
However, the Blue Blood Demon was evidently much faster than the green one, astonishingly managing to hold Lei Jiang off.
This Blood Demon was cunning to the extreme, slinging attacks towards Gang Shou, Ah Qing, and Zhao Yan from time to time, forcing Lei Jiang to provide further aid.
In the end, Lei Jiang was overwhelmed and meant to hold up the Blood Demon but ended up being tied up by it. Within moments he was in grave danger, drenched in a cold sweat.
In his anxiety, he did not forget to let the others retreat first. "Find a chance and escape."
"Heh-heh!"
The Blue Blood Demon obviously guessed Lei Jiang's intentions, so its attacks became even fiercer, exposing more attacks on Gang Shou, Ah Qing, and Zhao Yan.
Apart from Lei Jiang, the strength of the other three was only on par with that of an Evil Ghost. Even dealing with the green Blood Demon was difficult, let alone the Blue Blood Demon? In the blink of an eye, danger lurked at every turn. If it weren't for Lei Jiang's desperate rescue, they would've already been killed by this cunning Blue Blood Demon.
"Find a way to go!"
In great anxiety, Lei Jiang's eyes were almost ablaze.
But it was futile. Gang Shou, Ah Qing and Zhao Yan had no chance to escape. The attack of the Blue Blood Demon was so fierce that a careless move would cost their lives. They couldn't dare to even slightly distract their attention, not to mention turning their backs and escaping.
Ah Qing had already started crying, "Brother, we can't leave."
If this continued, the Blue Blood Demon would overpower Lei Jiang, and they'd all die here.
Ah Qing had pre-emptively anticipated the horror of death.
"Ah..."
Lei Jiang roared like a wounded beast, abruptly gathering all of his True Qi, throwing Thunder Rush Palms, madly attacking the Blue Blood Demon.
He had already pushed his True Qi to its limit, planning to give his life to buy some escape time for Ah Qing, Gang Shou, Zhao Yan, and others.
"Heh-heh!"
The Blue Blood Demon let out a strange laugh, did not fall into Lei Jiang's trap, and ignored the attack on him. It just continued to attack Ah Qing, Gang Shou, Zhao Yan, forcing Lei Jiang to the rescue.
Watching helplessly as the Blood Demon's claw aimed at his sister's Heavenly Crown, Lei Jiang had no choice but to withdraw his palm power and choose to rescue Ah Qing.
This way, he was again held up by the Blood Demon.
His strength was originally inferior to the Blue Blood Demon, and under the opponent's control, he became even more overwhelmed.
Swipe!
The Blue Blood Demon seized the opportunity to stab at Lei Jiang. Lei Jiang hurriedly dodged, but the Ghost Claw scraped over her chest, leaving five corrosive black marks. The foul smell that emanated was corroding his body and was terrifying to behold.
"Brother!"
Ah Qing let out a desperate cry.
If Lei Jiang was injured, they wouldn't be able to hold out for long.
A look of despair surfaced on all four faces.
Sure enough, after Lei Jiang's injury, his strength quickly diminished, and it became more difficult to handle the attack of the Blood Demon.
"Heh-heh!"
The Blood Demon let out a triumphant laugh. In a short while, he would be able to kill all four of them. After eating them, his strength might even progress to evolve into a Red Blood Demon.
Looking at the horrifying face of the Blood Demon, Lei Jiang and the others were filled with despair.
"Swipe!"
In a moment, Lei Jiang was hit by the Blood Demon again. The Ghost Claw slashed at his right arm, and he instantly lost all agility in it.
"Brother!"
Ah Qing screamed in distress.
"Sister, today we will live and die together!"
Lei Jiang growled, his defiance obvious, as he charged towards the Blood Demon regardless of everything.
"Heh-heh!"
The strange laughter echoed, the Blood Demon's Ghost Claw swung, and in the next moment, Lei Jiang and the others would all be killed.
Just then...
A voice suddenly rang out, it was Xiao Mu with a smile in his tone: "Everyone, do you need some help now?"
