Sub-humans are a humanoid species with predominantly human features, retaining only some traits of beasts or other alien races. Beastmen, however, have bodies that are mostly animalistic, but possess human-like torsos and the ability to walk upright.

The Royal Families among some powerful Beastman races are somewhat similar to Sub-humans, appearing more human than beast.

Like a ghost, Shu Feng slipped silently into Marquis Yin Ye’s City Lord’s Mansion.

Meanwhile, Su Mi flew high in the sky, hidden within a white cloud, guiding him from above.

’What a huge castle! It’s even more magnificent than the Imperial Palace!’

When Shu Feng arrived at Marquis Yin Ye’s estate, he was greeted by the sight of a Lord’s Mansion even more magnificent than the Imperial Palace. It covered a larger area than the Imperial Palace of the Leiyin Republic and was filled with one luxurious palace after another.

On the Void Demon Battlefield, a Half-Saint powerhouse of Marquis Level was an overlord in their own right, controlling a vast territory with a population of over ten million from various races. Marquis Yin Ye was known for his love of luxury, so it was only natural for him to build an estate even more magnificent than an imperial palace.

’I don’t have much time! Marquis Yin Ye could be back at any moment! There’s only one option: a direct assault!’

With a single thought, Shu Feng waved his hand and summoned five hundred Dragon Hunting Dogs. Using the Steel Beast as the tip of the spear, he charged directly into Marquis Yin Ye’s estate.

"What is this?"

A Ghost Demon guard froze for a moment before a Dragon Hunting Dog pounced, tearing him to shreds with a single bite.

"We’re under attack!!"

Squads of elite Ghost Demon warriors poured out from the estate, only to be torn to pieces by the five hundred Dragon Hunting Dogs commanded by the Steel Beast.

Each Dragon Hunting Dog possessed the combat power of a Spirit Sect Level expert, and on the Void Demon Battlefield, their strength wasn’t diminished in the slightest. With all the elites from Marquis Yin Ye’s estate having been sent away, they were naturally unable to withstand Shu Feng’s fierce assault.

"Who goes there? How dare you force your way into Marquis Yin Ye’s City Lord’s Mansion? Are you trying to get your entire race wiped out?"

A six-meter-tall young Frost Giant emerged from a luxurious palace. He stared intently at the Steel Beast and roared.

This six-meter-tall Frost Giant was Yin Yisheng, the head butler of Marquis Yin Ye’s City Lord’s Mansion and a peak Grandmaster Level powerhouse.

The Steel Beast’s expression was blank. It flashed forward, instantly appearing before the Frost Giant. Its Steel Scythe, imbued with terrifying Spiritual Ghost Thunder, swung down viciously at Yin Yisheng.

Wielding two spears, Yin Yisheng managed to block the Steel Beast’s strike.

A streak of blood descended from the sky, instantly piercing Yin Yisheng’s skull.

A look of terror filled Yin Yisheng’s face as the Essence Blood was instantly drained from his body, turning him into a withered husk.

The Steel Beast seized the opportunity, cleaving Yin Yisheng in two with a single strike. An eruption of countless Ghostly Spiritual Thunders shattered his Ghost Soul, electrocuting it to ash.

A charming smile on her face, Su Mi descended from the sky riding a cloud of blood. She flew into Marquis Yin Ye’s City Lord’s Mansion and unleashed her Blood Manipulation ability.

Within the walls of the Marquis’s estate, countless crimson lights flashed. They transformed into streams of blood that flowed toward Su Mi, coalescing into a river of blood around her.

Su Mi would never deign to drink the blood of such low-level beings, unless she was severely injured and needed it to recover. The river of blood that swirled around her served as both her weapon and her shield.

With Su Mi joining the fray, Marquis Yin Ye’s City Lord’s Mansion was quickly overrun.

Led by a dozen Dragon Hunting Dogs, Shu Feng arrived before the marquis’s Treasure Vault inside the City Lord’s Mansion.

BOOM!!

The Steel Beast swung its scythe, shattering the large Bronze Gate to smithereens.

The instant the Bronze Gate was shattered, a single black flame flickering within the Treasure Vault was abruptly extinguished.

’As expected of a Marquis’s treasure vault. I’ve hit the jackpot!’

As Shu Feng opened the Treasure Vault, his eyes lit up, a flicker of excitement in their depths.

Inside Marquis Yin Ye’s Treasure Vault, the first things that caught his eye were twenty Tier Four Spiritual Guns. They came in the form of pistols, sniper rifles, and assault rifles—all of them were Marquis Yin Ye’s trophies.

The Treasure Vault also contained massive quantities of Spirit Stones and Magic Stones, as well as a wide variety of Treasures of Heaven and Earth. Among them was a considerable number of Profound and Earth Level treasures, the kind needed for cultivation by Humans, Sub-humans, and Beastmen.

Powerful members of the Ghost Demon Race could allow their souls to leave their bodies and possess other experts, instantly acquiring their powerful constitution and a portion of their power.

The humans, Beastmen, and Sub-humans raised in the territories of Ghost Demon experts were nothing but slaves and potential vessels. If a genius emerged among them, the Ghost Demons would cultivate them meticulously, only to ultimately seize their body.

"Source Energy detected. West 23, North 34."

A system prompt sounded. Shu Feng’s eyes lit up. He walked over, picked up a piece of black ore, and after a moment of inspection, casually tossed it into his resource decomposition pool.

"Source Energy +50,000!"

Another prompt sounded, making Shu Feng’s eyes light up.

’Fifty thousand Source Energy!!’

Excitement flashed in Shu Feng’s eyes. Fifty thousand Source Energy was no small sum. It would allow him to synthesize fifty Dragon Hunting Dogs or Hundred-Colored Dragon Eagles without consuming any other resources.

"Master, this is a top-grade Dark Moon Spirit Fruit! It can improve my strength!"

Camilla’s eyes lit up when she spotted a small box. A look of longing filled her beautiful eyes as she spoke.

Shu Feng said, "Take it."

Camilla had improved a great deal through her many battles. Her archery could now threaten experts of the Spirit Sect Realm. However, compared to the Steel Beast and his other summons, she was still a bit weak.

"Shu Feng," Su Mi began, "I know of two other Void Demon Marquis’s mansions that are undefended right now. How about we go and raid them?"

Su Mi held a cup of Dragon Essence Blood, which she condensed into the shape of chocolate bars. She nibbled on them in small bites, her beautiful eyes shimmering with excitement.

The Essence Blood of terrifying Extraordinary Creatures, like the Blood of a Divine Spirit or Dragon Essence Blood, was Su Mi’s favorite food. With every bar she ate, she evolved just a little, growing stronger.

"Alright!"

Shu Feng’s eyes lit up. He immediately summoned several hundred Blood Demons to strip the Treasure Vault bare, then flew off toward the next Marquis’s Mansion.

「On a plain in the Void Demon Battlefield.」

Ten Frost Giants, each ten meters tall, were tightly bound in chains. With blank expressions, they pulled a magnificent, ten-meter-tall miniature palace.

Outside the palace, an army of fifty thousand Void Demons escorted four hundred thousand slaves from various races on a great migration. Any slave who showed the slightest resistance was immediately executed by the Void Demons trailing them, their bodies tossed onto corpse carts at the rear of the procession.

Inside the palace sat three Marquises of the Netherworld. More than a dozen beautiful women from various races, clad in light gauze, served them all manner of delicacies, doing their utmost to please their masters.
