Tangyu's methods indeed deterred all the small demons, preventing them from daring to charge again.

In total, it was only about ten breaths of time, yet Tangyu had already slain over a thousand small demons. How terrifying was such power?

These small demons of the Mystic Law Realm were like ants under Tangyu's hand, easily crushed to death.

Whoosh——

Two figures filled with demonic energy swiftly flew over and stopped mid-air, their gaze ominously fixed on Tangyu and his five companions. With the arrival of these two figures, all the small demons immediately knelt in reverence, clearly holding them in utmost esteem. These two Great Demons of the Golden Core Realm were definitely the rulers of this island.

"What a powerful aura; these two Great Demons are at least in the Golden Core Realm Second Layer. No wonder they've gathered so many small demons to form such a formidable force." Xiao Yu's expression turned grave, his gaze locked onto the two Great Demons. If they were just Golden Core Realm First Layer demons, they might be manageable. However, with at least two Golden Core Realm Second Layer demons, even just one of them would be beyond their capability to handle.

Xiao Yu's gaze couldn't help but drift back to Tangyu; at this moment, their lives rested in his hands. Though this feeling was uncomfortable, there were no other options.

The two Great Demons brimmed with violent rage as they beheld the over a thousand dead small demons on the ground, their eyes becoming unusually sharp and fearsome. A powerful momentum surged forth, like a raging tide, enveloping Tangyu and the others, aiming to oppress them with sheer presence. The oppressive aura of the two Great Demons even made Xiao Yu and his group of five shudder involuntarily.

"Not just Golden Core Realm Second Layer; they might even be Golden Core Realm Third Layer or stronger. How could such powerful Great Demons appear on this island?" The group, including Xiao Yu, was even more astonished.

This was merely the peripheral waters of the South Sea, so why was it so perilous? The information they had acquired was completely different. Had they known of such dangers, they wouldn't dare venture into the South Sea even with a hundred doses of courage—it was practically a death sentence.

Tangyu glanced at the two Great Demons, smirking slightly: "One in the Golden Core Realm Third Layer, and one in the Fourth Layer, not bad at all. Reaching such a realm is no easy feat. But this is just the outer South Sea; occupying and ruling here seems rather unambitious, doesn't it?"

Golden Core Realm Third Layer and Fourth Layer——

Hearing Tangyu's words, Xiao Yu and the others were once more left in stunned silence; truly terrifying indeed. At the same time, their curiosity towards Tangyu grew. He could discern the realms of the two Great Demons at a glance, which meant Tangyu's cultivation level must not be beneath these two demons, right?

So young, yet possessing such terrifying power? Xiao Yu and his group of five always considered themselves peerless geniuses, nurtured diligently by their Sect. Yet, in front of Tangyu, they felt deeply humbled. In comparison to Tangyu, they suddenly realized how much weaker their talents were. Indeed, beyond the heavens lies higher heavens, beyond man, greater men. Their prior pride now seemed somewhat laughable, silently mocking them, a resounding slap in the face.

Particularly for Xiao Yu and Zhao Huafeng, who felt utterly ashamed. Only now did they realize Tangyu didn't argue against them because he didn't care to. Despite having mocked Tangyu as a burden and tried to rid him, thinking back now, all they felt was burning embarrassment.

The two Great Demons glowered menacingly at Tangyu, the Golden Core Realm Fourth Layer demon coldly bellowing: "Human Clan, my brother and I never intended to contest anything, just sought a more stable place to comfortably cultivate. That's why we chose only an outer region of the sea to settle. Yet you humans slaughter my small demons—the unforgivable sin. If you're not killed, how could we maintain our dignity?"

A fearsome killing intent, too, surged forward.

But Tangyu remained unfazed, casually regarding the two wrathful Great Demons: "The Human and Yao Races are intrinsically like fire and water; survival of the fittest leaves nothing to say. You first attempted to kill us, so naturally, we can't just wait to be killed by you. In the end, it's might that speaks. But, I offer you a word of advice; if you don't want to die, leave immediately."

If you don't want to die, leave immediately!

Such dominating words!

Yet those two Great Demons were enraged beyond control, roaring fiercely: "Such audacity, I must see what you are capable of." With that, they charged at Tangyu, their terrifying momentum oppressing like Mount Tai, mighty and vast. The two Great Demons' assault immediately turned the faces of Xiao Yu and the others pale with dread, sensing the imminent danger, causing them to subconsciously retreat a few steps. Faced with such powerful demons, they immediately realized how feeble their own power was, not even able to withstand a single blow.

If they were to face them, they'd surely be doomed.

Faced with the overwhelming killing intent and destructive assault of the two Great Demons, Tangyu remained calm and unhurried, shaking his head slightly and uttering a single word: "Die!" He waved his sword lightly, executing a seemingly effortless strike. This sword was neither fast nor grand, devoid of any discernible move or force. It was akin to an ordinary person casually swinging a sword in the air.

Yet eerily, as this sword stroke was executed, two streaks of light flew forth, slashing towards the two Great Demons. These streaks of light fell and immediately split the bodies of the two demons into halves. Without warning, it was exceptionally eerie. The two Great Demons hadn't even reached Tangyu, yet their bodies split apart, falling as powerless heaps of flesh and blood, dead beyond doubt.

One in the Golden Core Realm Third Layer, and one in the Fourth Layer, these two mighty Great Demons didn't even have a chance to utter a sound before being slain.

Terrifying! Terrifying! Absolutely terrifying!

The whole scene fell into a deathly silence, you could hear a pin drop. Everyone held their breath, eyes wide open, each one dumbfounded and speechless.

Even Xiao Yu and the other four had never seen such a scene before. The shock it gave them was overwhelmingly strong. It was like a terrifying flood rushing over them, catching them completely off guard.

"Isn't this too amazing?" After quite a while, Xiao Yu managed to swallow hard.

Zhao Huafeng was also swallowing hard, a few sparks of passion and admiration flashing in his eyes. From the previous disdain and mockery, to now feeling shame and admiration, and he was also very grateful. If it weren't for Tangyu this time, they would have surely met a terrible fate. Last time, facing that giant squid, they would have died for sure.

Blue Sea, Yaoyao, and Xian Yun's trio just stared at Tangyu in a daze, unable to speak, as if they had a myriad of words in their hearts, but didn't know how to express them.

Xiao Yu and Zhao Huafeng exchanged a glance, both of their faces flushed bright red. Thinking of their previous behavior made them feel deeply ashamed. After a moment of eye contact, Xiao Yu gritted his teeth, bowed to Tangyu, and said, "Senior, we were indeed very offensive before, and if we've offended you, we hope you can forgive us. If we did something wrong, we admit it. Tell us how you want to punish us, and we'll accept it without any complaints. This time, thanks to you, our lives were saved, otherwise it would have been a dead-end for us. We have no way to repay your great kindness."

"Senior, punish us as you see fit. Whether to kill or flay, just say the word."

Zhao Huafeng also said, "Senior, I am also willing to accept punishment. We were truly wrong before, we were blind and offended you."

If the two hadn't actively admitted their mistakes and if their attitude wasn't so sincere, Tangyu would definitely be too lazy to bother with them. However, seeing their attitude in admitting their mistakes as decent, proving they indeed have a good nature, it was only due to jealousy that previous issues emerged. To know one's wrongs and correct them is a great virtue. Tangyu was not one to be overly meticulous, and since everything was cleared up, it was just a misunderstanding after all, there was nothing more to it.

Tangyu smirked, "No need for 'senior, senior,' we're about the same age, just call me by my name. I've already forgotten about earlier."

Upon hearing Tangyu's words, Xiao Yu and Zhao Huafeng were instantly delighted. The fact that the senior wasn't angry was great news. At the same time, they couldn't help but admire Tangyu's magnanimity, a true demeanor of a master, unmatched by their petty thoughts.

The three of Blue Sea looked at Tangyu with more admiration and respect.

Xiao Yu said, "Tangyu, this time we entirely rely on you. We never imagined we could meet a benefactor like you, Tangyu, on this journey. It's truly our good fortune."

Tangyu casually smiled, "Meeting is fate, there's no such thing as fortune or misfortune. You five all have the potential to be nurtured, and you should hone yourselves well to truly achieve greatness. Alright, let's handle the matters here first."

Tangyu's gaze swept to the little demons, each of whom were kneeling on the ground, terrified, not daring to breathe.

There were still about a thousand or two little demons here, such a number was indeed quite large.

Tangyu said, "I'm not one for slaughter. If you don't provoke me, I won't kill you. Now that your leader is dead, you can all disperse."

Hearing that Tangyu wouldn't kill them, the little demons breathed a collective sigh of relief, gratefully dispersing in all directions. Soon, the area was completely cleared, leaving only over a thousand corpses of the Yao race.

Tangyu said to Xiao Yu and the others, "Clean up here; take whatever you can."

Hearing this, Xiao Yu quickly shook his head, "No, no, no, how can we take these? These were all defeated by Tangyu, these spoils naturally belong to you, Tangyu."

The little demons had many valuable items, and there were two Great Demons, their possessions were surely priceless, not to mention the two Golden Cores, which were invaluable. Gathering all these spoils would grant them tremendous wealth, offering many benefits.

Tangyu chuckled, "Just take them; these things are of no use to me."

Xiao Yu was momentarily stunned, but then relaxed, realizing that with Tangyu's extraordinary power, he indeed wouldn't care for these items. Since that was the case, he stopped being overly polite, "Alright, then we won't stand on ceremony." With that, he beckoned to the others to start cleaning the battlefield, collecting the spoils. It took a good half an hour to gather all the spoils, forming a small mountain, an incredibly abundant harvest. Then, Xiao Yu divided the spoils into five equal parts, distributing one to each person.

As for the two Golden Cores, Xiao Yu temporarily held onto them.
