Hearing Little Zhuge, the fox demon sneered and then said, "Alright, don’t make excuses for yourself. Your reason is completely made up, and I won’t fall for it. I’ll just devour you right here, and even if your master comes, he won’t find you. As long as we don’t harm others, he won’t have any evidence, right?"

After hearing the fox demon’s words, Little Zhuge thought to himself, "What a cunning fox! It seems there’s only one way: to fight."

Little Zhuge turned to Wang Yufan and transmitted, "Alright, let’s get ready. I see you have some strength. I’ll hold off that fox demon. If you can’t deal with these smaller demons, you can lead them away."

Wang Yufan nodded and replied, "Okay, go ahead. I’ll handle this side."

Hearing Wang Yufan’s reply, Little Zhuge felt that something was off, but he couldn’t quite pinpoint it.

However, after Wang Yufan finished speaking, Little Zhuge leaped up, holding his staff, and said to the fox demon, "Hmph, you monster! It’s your bad luck to run into your grandma today. I showed you a path to life, but you didn’t take it, so I’ll grant you this path to death."

After Little Zhuge finished speaking, the staff in his hand glowed brightly with golden light and swept directly towards the fox demon. The fox demon, seeing the staff attack, chose to evade. She was still afraid of this staff; it naturally countered her demon race and limited her own strength.

Little Zhuge was originally at the Divine Emperor Realm, but facing the Qiankun Realm fox demon, besides the slight advantage of her staff, she was completely suppressed by the fox demon. However, Little Zhuge showed no signs of discouragement.

While fighting, Little Zhuge nearly spat blood when she saw Wang Yufan.

Wang Yufan was currently chatting and talking with those monsters, completely unburdened.

In fact, although Wang Yufan’s cultivation was restricted, he still retained a significant amount of his soul cultivation. He had just used powerful soul energy to make all the demons in front of him obey his commands. Although there were many of these demons, their strength was at most at the Shenzun Realm.

However, for Little Zhuge at this moment, it was already incredibly shocking. Of course, it wasn’t just her; even the fox demon she was fighting was stunned by this scene.

"Family, what are you doing? Quickly take down that kid!" A soul-shaking roar directly charged into the demon horde. And the demons in the horde quickly reacted.

They bared their fangs and charged towards Wang Yufan.

"Holy crap, this move! Then I won’t be polite!" Wang Yufan didn’t move but directly summoned the Chaos Bell.

The moment the Chaos Bell appeared, it pressed down directly on the demons. The giant bell directly suppressed all the demons charging at Wang Yufan. This scene once again shocked Little Zhuge and the fox demon.

Little Zhuge immediately shouted, "Holy crap, your treasure is amazing! Why didn’t you take it out earlier? If I had known, we could have used it to directly capture this fox demon."

The fox demon, hearing this, snorted, "But it’s too late now."

"It’s a pity there’s no going back. Both of you, die! Nine-Tailed Divine Art—Cloning Technique!" As the fox demon shouted this, her figure directly split into two. One charged towards Wang Yufan, and the other charged towards Little Zhuge.

"Holy crap, this fox can even use such an attack! Little White Face, quickly lend me your treasure to play with. I’ll capture this fox demon first, how about it?" Little Zhuge said.

Hearing Little Zhuge’s words, Wang Yufan shook his head and said, "I want to, but it’s not allowed. My treasure only recognizes me; it doesn’t recognize others."

After Wang Yufan finished speaking, Little Zhuge didn’t believe him. Since Ni Chang had such a good magic treasure, why wasn’t he using it now? Was he waiting until he was about to die?

Seeing Little Zhuge’s disbelieving expression, Wang Yufan was helpless.

Then Wang Yufan took out a small hammer and struck the Chaos Bell. There was a group of demons inside. The Chaos Bell was obtained by Wang Yufan from the system, but when the system collapsed, many things were not preserved, only the Chaos Bell and a feather fan.

As Wang Yufan struck, the demons inside the Chaos Bell immediately let out heart-wrenching roars. The bell sound of the Chaos Bell directly reverberated in all directions, and soon there was no sound left inside the Chaos Bell. The fox demon, who was in a fierce battle with Little Zhuge, was also shaken and disoriented by Wang Yufan’s bell sound. Little Zhuge seized the opportunity and directly struck the fox demon’s back with her staff. With the staff’s enhancement, the fox demon was directly smashed to the ground.

With a "boom."

The fox demon lay on the ground, still not having reacted from the previous attack. Little Zhuge was about to attack again, but she didn’t expect the fox demon’s alertness. Its fur instantly bristled, and its six tails, covered in barbs, directly lashed out at Little Zhuge.

The giant tails swept the entire tavern into ruins, and Wang Yufan stood outside, holding the Chaos Bell. In Wang Yufan’s eyes, the tavern slowly disappeared, and what appeared before him were vast caves, with tombs on top of them.

"Xiaoyao Town, this is the Xiaoyao Town of the dead," Wang Yufan muttered repeatedly.

"Hmph, you two have angered me today. Even if it costs me ten thousand years of cultivation, I will grind both of you to dust!" the fox demon roared.

Little Zhuge, however, said, "You were the one who caused trouble for the people first; we are merely acting on behalf of Heaven. Moreover, you should blame yourself for this place being ruined like this. Originally, only one floor was damaged, but your troublesome tails ruined everything here. Or perhaps that was just an illusion, but your attacks were real, right? So, we can’t be blamed for this, can we?"

Hearing Little Zhuge’s words, Wang Yufan nodded in satisfaction.

But in the fox demon’s eyes, this was blatant provocation. Then the fox demon directly opened its mouth and spat out an inner core, filled with endless energy.

Wang Yufan’s eyes narrowed, and he thought, "This is a good item. If I use this, it will definitely increase my strength, and it should also be faster."

And at this moment, not only Wang Yufan thought this way, but Little Zhuge also had the same idea.

"If I get this inner core, my strength will directly break through two stages and reach the late Divine Emperor Realm."
