Chapter 61: Hou Yi Shoots Down the Suns, Taiyi Battles Dijiang
Hou Yi sensed the aura of the sun's true fire at the place where Kuafu fell. He initially thought that either Di Jun or Taiyi had killed Kuafu, but upon seeing the ten little golden crows above his head, Hou Yi instantly realized that it was all the work of these ten little beasts.
Although Hou Yi didn't know how these ten little beasts could possibly kill Kuafu, who possessed the cultivation of a late-stage Great Luo Golden Immortal, none of that mattered anymore. With his enemy right before him, Hou Yi now only wanted to kill these ten little beasts and avenge Kuafu.
Taking advantage of the ten little golden crows' inattention, Hou Yi picked up his Sun-Shooting Bow, aimed at one of the little golden crows, and shot an arrow straight at the leader of the little golden crows.
Meanwhile, the ten little golden crows were still playing and frolicking, immersed in the joy of killing Kuafu, completely unaware of the danger that was right in front of them. A divine arrow pierced through the body of the second golden crow, taking its life instantly.
"Second Brother!" The other nine little golden crows were terrified when they saw this scene. How could the second golden crow die all of a sudden?
Before the nine little golden crows could react, another divine arrow struck, piercing the body of the fourth golden crow, killing it instantly. The remaining eight little golden crows finally came to their senses, turned around, and saw Hou Yi holding the Sun-Shooting Bow, glaring at them menacingly.
"Run!" The eight little golden crows were terrified by Hou Yi's imposing aura. At the shout of their leader, they fled in panic, and they even tried to repeat their previous trick, heading towards the direction of the sun star.
Unfortunately, Hou Yi was an archer, and he could kill them even if he stood still. Hou Yi shot six arrows in a row, and as a result, all the little golden crows except for the eldest and tenth golden crows were killed.
Within the Thirty-Third Heaven, mother and child were of one heart. While punishing the eight little golden crows who died under Hou Yi's divine arrows, Xi He felt as if her heart was being torn apart. She hurriedly tried to calculate with her fingers, but because the secrets of heaven were unclear at this time, Xi He could not make any sense at all. This was because Di Jun was forging the Slaughtering Witch Sword on the Sun Star and was not in the Thirty-Third Heaven. Xi He could only go to Tai Yi.
After learning of Xihe's purpose, Taiyi hurriedly used the luck of the demon race to calculate and finally broke through the secret of heaven. However, the moment the secret was broken, Taiyi was furious and, disregarding Xihe, flew directly towards the prehistoric world.
In the primordial world, as Hou Yi continued to shoot divine arrows, the eldest Golden Crow glanced at the tenth Golden Crow and said resolutely, "Tenth, run! Your elder brother will hold off this barbarian for you!" With that, he flew directly towards Hou Yi's direction.
"Big brother, no!" Hearing that the eldest Golden Crow was going to sacrifice himself to save his own life, the tenth Golden Crow was heartbroken. But he knew that if he didn't run away, he would die too. If he died, no one would avenge his brothers. So he turned around and ran away as fast as he could.
After defeating the eldest Golden Crow, Hou Yi was already somewhat exhausted. After all, shooting nine arrows in a row was a bit too much even for Hou Yi, who was at the early stage of the Hunyuan Golden Immortal realm. However, looking at the last little Golden Crow and remembering that he had not yet fully avenged Kuafu, Hou Yi once again unleashed his power and shot towards the tenth Golden Crow.
Jinwu the Tenth was shocked. He never expected that this barbarian would not only kill his nine brothers but also try to kill him as well.
Just as the eleventh Golden Crow was filled with despair, a large hand reached out and instantly caught Hou Yi's arrow, then protected the tenth Golden Crow. The person who came was none other than the demon clan's Donghuang Taiyi.
"Uncle, all my brothers are dead! They were killed by this barbarian!" Upon seeing Taiyi arrive, the tenth elder of the Golden Crow burst into tears, weeping bitterly.
Upon hearing this, Taiyi coughed up a mouthful of blood and quickly sent the Tenth Golden Crow back to the Thirty-Third Heaven. This was his elder brother's last bloodline, and he couldn't let him die.
"Hou Yi, I, the Emperor, will kill you!" After seeing off the tenth Golden Crow, Taiyi stared at Hou Yi with extremely angry eyes and roared.
Taiyi unleashed the Eastern Emperor Bell at Houyi. Houyi's strength was already inferior to Taiyi's, and coupled with the excessive consumption of energy after shooting down nine small golden crows, he was sent flying tens of thousands of miles away by Taiyi's furious attack. If Houyi had not already advanced to the level of an Ancestral Witch and possessed a powerful physical body, this attack would have been enough to kill him. However, Houyi was already severely injured and powerless to resist.
Just as Taiyi was about to finish off Houyi and avenge the nine little golden crows, a figure blocked Houyi's way.
"Dijiang!" Taiyi said angrily, looking at the figure in front of him.
Indeed, standing in front of Hou Yi was Di Jiang, who had arrived upon hearing the news. Seeing Hou Yi severely wounded and lying on the ground, Di Jiang looked at Tai Yi with a frosty expression and said, "Tai Yi, how dare you attack my ancestral witch? Are you trying to provoke a war between the witches and demons?"
"Dijiang, I don't want to waste words with you. Houyi killed nine princes of my demon race. This is an irreconcilable feud. If you don't want to provoke a war between the demons and the sorcerers, then hand over Houyi." Taiyi said through gritted teeth. The Slaughtering Sword had not yet been successfully forged, and now was not the time to fight the demon race. Therefore, Taiyi only asked Dijiang to hand over Houyi.
"Hmph!" Dijiang sneered, "Those ten little beasts entered the prehistoric continent without permission, causing widespread suffering and even killing my great shaman Kuafu. They deserve to die. Houyi's actions were to save the lives of the prehistoric people. What's wrong with that?"
"Dijiang, are you determined to protect Houyi?" Upon hearing this, Taiyi became even more furious. All nine of his nephews were dead, and Dijiang was still trying to pin the blame on them. How could Taiyi not be angry?
Dijiang said, "Taiyi, Houyi is a member of my Wu clan. Even if Houyi is not at fault, it is still a matter for my Wu clan. When did it become your demon clan's place to make decisions?"
"Dijiang, since you are so ungrateful, then die with Houyi!" Since they couldn't reach an agreement, Taiyi stopped being polite to Dijiang and directly urged the Eastern Emperor Bell to strike Dijiang.
Dijiang was not to be outdone, and swung his fists to meet the attack. The Ancestral Witch had a powerful physical body, and even when facing a supreme innate treasure like the Eastern Emperor Bell, he was not afraid and chose to fight head-on.
However, Dijiang was only at the mid-stage of the Hunyuan Golden Immortal realm, and there was still a gap between him and the late-stage Quasi-Saint Taiyi. In addition, Taiyi also had the innate treasure, the Donghuang Bell, so Dijiang gradually fell into a disadvantageous position.
At this moment, Taiyi was blinded by rage and unleashed his full power, attacking with almost no reservations.
In contrast, Dijiang was in a very passive position. Although he was not defeated for the time being due to his strong physical body, the burning of the true fire of the sun made Dijiang feel very uncomfortable.
Just as Dijiang was being overwhelmed by Taiyi, several voices came from afar: "Brother, don't panic, we're here!"
Jumang, Shebishi, Tianwu, and Qiangliang, the four ancestral witches, felt that they were all close to the mid-stage of the Hunyuan Golden Immortal realm. With their combined efforts, they finally managed to restrain the mad Taiyi and save Dijiang.
When Taiyi saw that the four Ancestral Witches had arrived, he gradually calmed down. With five Ancestral Witches here, it would be too difficult for him to kill Houyi. Moreover, Taiyi believed that the remaining six Ancestral Witches were on their way, and Houtu might arrive soon as well. Once the remaining Ancestral Witches arrived, he would probably be the one to die today.
"Dijiang, I will spare your life for now, but my demon race will never let go of the blood feud of my nine nephews." After saying this, Taiyi picked up the corpses of the nine little golden crows and flew back to the Thirty-Third Heaven.
The four ancestral witches did not pursue them because they were worried about the situation of Dijiang and Houyi.
Shebishi helped Dijiang up and asked, "Brother, are you alright?"
Dijiang shook his head and said, "I'm fine. Although Taiyi is powerful, he hasn't been able to break through my physical body. He's just a little uncomfortable from the True Fire of the Sun, but it's nothing serious. Houyi is seriously injured. We should hurry up and send him back to the Pangu Palace to ask Uncle for help."
Dijiang is not in much trouble, but Houyi is a different story. He is on the verge of death. Now that Houtu has lost her Ancestral Witch status, she is unable to form the Twelve Heavenly Gods and Demons Formation with the Eleven Ancestral Witches. Houyi, who has already been promoted to Ancestral Witch, is very important and cannot be allowed to die.
