Although Night Sparrow spoke with utmost resolve, Xu Taiping could still hear from her tone that she was extremely unwilling for not being able to pass the demon blood to Bai Yu.
Xu Taiping was also very reluctant.
He wanted to help Night Sparrow fulfill her wish, but the terrifying aura from the Peacock King above made his reason overcome his emotions.
"Alright..."
"Taiping."
Just as Xu Taiping was about to agree, Fairy Lingyue suddenly called out to him.
"What's wrong, Sister Lingyue?"
Xu Taiping asked in his mind, somewhat puzzled.
"Let that mother and son continue. I'll try to hold off the Peacock King for a while. If I can kill it, that would be even better."
Fairy Lingyue responded with a hint of killing intent in her voice.
Originally, she didn't plan to intervene, but Night Sparrow's act of feeding her blood to her child deeply moved her.
"Sister Lingyue, are you really sure you can do it?"
Xu Taiping confirmed with Fairy Lingyue.
He trusted Fairy Lingyue, but in matters of life and death, it was better to be cautious.
"Killing the Peacock King might be difficult, but holding it off for a while should be no problem."
Fairy Lingyue said confidently.
Hearing this, Xu Taiping no longer hesitated and immediately transmitted his voice to Night Sparrow:
"Aunt Night Sparrow, I can hold off the Peacock King. You and Bai Yu continue the demon blood transmission."
"But..."
"Trust me."
Night Sparrow was still hesitant, but Xu Taiping had already stepped out and darted out from under the peacock's wing.
"This child..."
Seeing Xu Taiping rush out without hesitation, Night Sparrow had no choice but to trust him.
"What madman dares to rescue a prisoner!"
"Come and face your death!"
At this moment, a group of peacock demon guards discovered Xu Taiping. Without waiting for the Peacock King to land, they already flapped their wings, extended their claws, and pounced at Xu Taiping together.
"Whoosh!"
Xu Taiping used the Wind Shadow Step to dodge the attack of a peacock demon and then asked Fairy Lingyue in his mind: "Sister Lingyue, what do you plan to do?"
While speaking, he drew his long sword from his waist, and the blade, enveloped in a sword glow, slashed fiercely at a peacock demon that was pouncing at him.
"Bang!"
The peacock demon was directly slashed and flew backward.
After breaking through to the Wàngyōu realm, these ordinary demons were no match for Xu Taiping.
"First, engage these peacock demon guards. When the Peacock King joins the fight, lend your body to me, and let me control it to fight the Peacock King."
Fairy Lingyue explained to Xu Taiping.
"Alright."
Although Xu Taiping was somewhat skeptical about whether this could be done, he still nodded firmly, deciding to trust Fairy Lingyue.
As he spoke, he punched a peacock demon with a "Bang."
Being cautious, he didn't use the specific moves of the Green Ox Fist for fear of being recognized.
Even so, the power of his punch was still considerable, tilting the peacock demon's head and nearly knocking it unconscious.
"Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh!"
At this moment, a peacock demon with a blue glow around its body suddenly flapped its wings, turning its feathers into sharp arrows that rained down on Xu Taiping.
"Clang!"
Xu Taiping immediately activated a Golden Bell Talisman to block the attack.
However, after blocking the attack, the Golden Bell Talisman shattered, showing the power of the peacock's attack.
"Whoosh!"
The moment the Golden Bell Talisman shattered, Xu Taiping had already taken out his bow and arrow, and an arrow wrapped in true essence accurately hit the peacock demon's wing.
The peacock demon let out a惨叫 and then "Bang" fell to the ground.
He had already maximized the power of the Arrow Piercing the Willow.
"Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh!"
Then, while running around the field, he quickly shot three arrows in succession, each hitting a peacock demon's head, bringing down three more.
"Chirp!"
But at this moment, the other peacock demons took the opportunity to fly and pounce at him.
"Clang!"
Xu Taiping didn't panic. Instead, he seized the opportunity, leaped up with his long sword, infused his true essence into the blade, and slashed at the neck of the nearest peacock demon.
"Whoosh!"
The peacock demon's head was directly severed by Xu Taiping.
"Rascal, how dare you!"
Seeing Xu Taiping continuously kill his kin, the Peacock King roared in anger and then flapped its wings, its body darting down like an arrow toward the Danxia Platform.
"Boom!"
A pair of claws suddenly grabbed at Xu Taiping.
Faced with this, Xu Taiping did not dodge but instead raised two fingers and pointed at the Peacock King's claws.
This was the gesture of the Blue Phoenix Ring's Two-Finger Cloud-Breaking technique.
"Boom!"
The moment the two fingers pointed, a piercing sound suddenly exploded, and a vortex formed by countless gales shot out from the Blue Phoenix Ring like a sharp spear, piercing straight at the Peacock King.
"Bang!"
The Peacock King, sensing the danger, quickly retracted its claws.
Its wings, shimmering with a greenish-golden metallic sheen, suddenly closed, shielding its entire body and blocking the Blue Phoenix Ring's two fingers.
"Boom!"
Despite this, its massive body was still pushed back by the power of the Blue Phoenix Ring's two fingers, sliding several dozen feet before stopping.
"The Peacock King's wings can actually block the two fingers?"
Xu Taiping was first stunned, then, while using the Wind Shadow Step to dodge an attack from a peacock demon, he drew his bow and shot an arrow at another peacock demon that was about to pounce.
"It actually has a spirit weapon, no wonder it dared to come alone to the execution ground."
At this moment, the Peacock King flapped its wings, stopping its slide, and then dived down again, one wing shielding its body and the other slicing at Xu Taiping like a giant blade.
"Taiping, hold your breath and focus. I will control your body."
At this moment, the silent Fairy Lingyue suddenly spoke in Xu Taiping's mind.
Xu Taiping knew he was no match for the Peacock King, so he immediately put away his bow and arrow, ignoring the large wing slicing down from above, and began to hold his breath and focus as Fairy Lingyue instructed.
"Boom!"
Just then, the Peacock King's wing sliced down from the sky, cutting a deep and long gash in the granite ground of the Danxia Platform.
"Huh?"
What surprised the Peacock King was that its attack, which it thought would surely hit, was actually dodged.
"Rumble..."
Not only did he dodge, but he also used a very strange movement, as if walking on air, and appeared in front of it, raising his fist and punching.
"Bang!"
Possessed by Fairy Lingyue, Xu Taiping's seemingly ordinary punch made the Peacock King let out a "Ah" in pain, its body rolling in the air.
Seeing this, Xu Taiping was filled with amazement, thinking to himself:
"Does my punch have such power?"
