On the battlefield where Liu Hui and the short young man fought, the sounds of fierce combat and the roars of a Demon Beast occasionally echoed from within the swirling dust and sand.
Suddenly, the Demon Beast's roars turned from rage to terror, then to whimpers for mercy, before finally vanishing completely.
Upon hearing this, the expressions of the Wolf Fang Sect members changed. Even Jin Quan, who had been relaxed and certain of victory, lost his smile, his eyes fixed on the slowly settling dust.
To avoid any suspicion of interference, no one was allowed to scan the battlefield with their Divine Sense. Therefore, besides Liu Hui and the short young man themselves, no one knew what had actually happened inside.
'This Pig Demon would make for some excellent cooking ingredients. I could bring it to the Master, but I wonder if the Lord Emperor would mind.'
In the dust, two corpses lay before Liu Hui.
One was the short young man, the other a Pig Demon with its head smashed in.
