A powerful blade energy instantly descended on one of the early-stage leader-level Devils, the intense light illuminating the entire valley.
The two leader-level Devils were shocked.
Had humans laid an ambush as well?
No, if there had been an ambush, it wouldn't have taken this long to act.
The other side would have joined forces with the Golden Core cultivator in the valley long ago.
It seemed more likely that this person had passed by, and after hearing the sounds of battle, they decided to intervene.
The two leader-level Devils' faces turned extremely grim.
They regretted not dealing with Duàn Shaoqing first.
Killing the Golden Core cultivator and then joining forces would have ensured they had nothing to fear from a passing Golden Core cultivator.
They might have even scared them off without a fight.
But now it was too late for regrets.
These thoughts flashed by in less than a second.
