Chapter 359 It's Unethical of You to Be a Demon
The beauty smiled gently, like a clear breeze and a bright moon in the mountains.
The night was deep and cold, the moon shone brightly, its silvery light faint, and a murderous aura emanated from it.
Just as the white-haired sword spirit spoke, the horns of the approaching demonic tide sounded again from outside.
"Telepathic connection? Then guess what I want to do right now?" Wu Shuang asked Xu Qizhou.
Xu Qizhou, with his handsome features, spread his right hand in front of Wushuang:
"Of course, it's to kill the enemy!"
The silver longsword fell into his hand, and the snow-white tassel gently brushed against the young man's palm as it fell, causing him to chuckle softly.
Although it was a light laugh, the upward curve of her lips made it seem more like she was overjoyed.
"Let's go." The young man said gently.
"Slay the demons once more!"
The young man, wielding a long sword, lifted the tent flap and flew towards the battlefield where the sounds of battle were deafening.
The array cultivators at Qingshuitai had erected a seemingly endless city wall using array formations, which the disciples of the immortal sects and the soldiers of the Shengyu Army had been referring to as the newly established defensive line of the human race.
The waters of the river flowed, severing the demonic tide—the Broken Water Pass.
As soon as Xu Qizhou and Wushuang crossed the Broken Water Pass, they saw Zhu He wielding a greatsword.
The young man brandished the Crane-Walking Sword, and with each swirling sword energy, he swept away all the low-level magical beasts within ten meters in front of him. The corpses of those magical beasts flew everywhere, and the person hiding behind them quietly appeared.
It was a very petite high-ranking demon, dressed in an exquisite robe, looking like a child who had stolen an adult's clothes. He had four eyes, each showing a hint of surprise.
Zhu He twirled the greatsword in his hand, the tip digging deep into the ground. The young man leaned against the hilt, a relaxed smile on his face, and spoke:
"Fellow Daoist, what are you doing hiding in the back?"
Seeing that he had been exposed, the short demon grinned wickedly and spoke:
"As expected, Ji Jinjin is not here!"
Zhu He was initially puzzled by the demon's words, but after a moment he understood what the demon meant.
The young man narrowed his eyes slightly: "So this is why you've been sending troops to harass Duanshui Pass for so many days!"
The young man secretly gripped the hilt of the Crane Sword, thinking that it was understandable that the demons were hesitant to act rashly. His aunt had cultivated the Way of Slaughter and had always been quite meticulous in dealing with the demons.
The meticulousness described here, when translated into the language of the demons, would probably be described as annihilating demonic souls, extracting marrow from bones, and being cruel and bloodthirsty.
But that's the demon race, and has nothing to do with Zhuhe.
Zhu He, the second senior brother, always encouraged Ji Jinjin's actions.
Zhu He: I love clapping and cheering behind my junior sister's back. If you can't stand it, you can come and kill me!
The short man had discerned the information he wanted and quietly took out a jet-black bead from his sleeve, which exuded an ominous aura, and threw it on the ground.
As soon as the bead landed on the ground, it emitted a thin layer of black smoke. Half of the demon's ferocious face was hidden behind the black smoke, and when he spoke, he let out a grating, sinister laugh: "Ji Jinjin is too bloodthirsty. The Heavenly Dao of Yuanming Realm will not allow anomalies to survive in Yuanming Realm."
Zhu He was slightly taken aback upon hearing this. The young man subtly moved his fingers, signaling the woman hiding in the shadows not to make any rash moves.
He wanted to hear what this reckless creature in front of him had to say.
The young man's voice was filled with anger: "Demon, stop trying to sow discord here!"
"Hmph!" The demon sneered, and its lower body slowly turned into a sticky mess in the black smoke.
"I won't tell you!"
Zhu He was greatly disappointed, wondering if he was really that unlikable to the demon.
He won't answer any questions.
The young man yawned and pointed at the demon: "You're not a fair demon, you're already talking and you haven't finished!"
The languid look that had been radiating from his eyes vanished abruptly, replaced by a chill in his voice:
"Deserves to be killed!"
Upon hearing the name Zhu He, the demon was startled at first, but then couldn't help but laugh.
"Just you?"
Zhu He gripped the sword hilt tightly with one hand: "It's not just me."
The person who had been hiding in the shadows suddenly made a move, and two beams of light, like flying needles, pierced through the demon's body, cutting him in two.
"This is...water..."
The demon's upper body lay on the ground, half of his face stained with purplish-black blood.
Before he could finish his hoarse words, a cold glint flashed before his eyes.
Zhu He's heavy sword struck the demon's head, which had fallen to the ground, with a clang.
The demon who landed on the ground was struck by this attack, and purple flames suddenly erupted from his body, swallowing him up like a ferocious beast.
Min Chang, who was hiding in the shadows, quickly activated the Water Lotus to extinguish the fire, but it was too late.
In the blink of an eye, the demon was reduced to a pile of black ash in the flames, along with the bead that had fallen to the ground. From soul to body, nothing was left.
Zhu He sighed, "It's like this again."
Min Shang, dressed in a light blue robe, slowly walked up and, with a wave of her hand, tucked the pile of ashes into her sleeve.
The woman deduced, "I'm afraid there's something strange about that black bead he just broke. I was too late to intervene."
Zhu He smiled and comforted Min Shang: "Senior Sister Min, what are you saying? You and I both saw the strangeness of those flames."
The low growls of monsters gradually came from all around. Zhu He looked around and found that new monsters were walking up, stepping on the fragments of monsters.
Some of them even began to devour the corpses of their own kind without discrimination, a scene that was utterly repulsive.
But Zhu He and the others were already used to it; the young man shouldered his heavy sword.
"Anyway, I don't care about any of that. I'll deal with the immediate problem first."
After saying this, the young man turned around and looked up at Xu Qizhou, saying:
"Once my senior brother arrives, let's slaughter the demons!"
Xu Qizhou nodded slightly, his voice booming: "That's exactly what I was thinking."
The three exchanged a smile and continued fighting in front of Duanshui Pass.
Unbeknownst to Zhu He and the others, a purplish-black bead appeared out of thin air in the hand of the old man in black before the demon altar deep in the desolate region.
He gently placed the bead in his hand into the groove on the altar in front of him.
There were already a vast number of purple beads there, like a river. The demonic aura emanating from them converged and flew towards the center of the altar.
In the center of the altar stood a gigantic humanoid figure bound to a pillar. The demonic energy slowly seeped into its body…
"My Lord..."
The old man spoke in a hoarse voice, his tone filled with trembling excitement: "Soon!"
Unnoticed by anyone, the humanoid figure bound to the pillar slowly raised its head, a rare clarity appearing in its blood-red eyes.
Offerings to the demon god?
wishful thinking!
