Chapter 139 The War Demon Attacks

Not to mention during the day, because Lu Yi did not go into battle, the attempted counterattack by the rebellion-suppression army suffered heavy casualties.

Not to mention how furious Wang Pu and the people in the War Demon Palace were after the news reached Anping Pass that Wang Hu was beaten with a hundred military sticks, a large sum of money was swallowed up by Lu Yi, and no troops were sent to help in the battle.

On the night of March 3rd.

A flamingo with a huge wingspan flew silently over the sky above the governor's mansion in Lu County. A female cultivator with delicate hair and a red robe quietly jumped off the flamingo's back and landed lightly in the yard where Lu Yi was wearing a long red scarf.

Lu Yi received the female cultivator named Zhu Yue from the Red Lotus Temple of Buddhism in the north room of the courtyard.

Lu Jun and Lu Yi were there with him.

Last night, Wang Hu came to the house and brought a jade gourd, which was placed upright on the small square table. Zhuyue took out a drop of liquid medicine from it and put it in an exquisite jade bowl. She was using various medicinal powders and potions to carefully identify the efficacy of the liquid medicine.

After Lu Yi received the jade gourd last night, Lu Jun spread the news through the channels of the Great Vajra Temple.

After waiting for a whole day, the Buddhist sect responded and sent Zhuyue, who happened to be nearby and delivering red lotus solid pills to the rioters, to rush over to check it out.

Various colored powders and potions were constantly blending with the medicinal liquid that was as heavy as a drop of mercury, completely black, and reflecting a cold metallic glow.

With the sound of "hissing", smoke of various colors slowly rose up.

Lu Yi opened the doors and windows early, letting the night breeze blow away the smoke, fearing that there was something wrong in the smoke.

After half an hour, Zhuyue frowned and reached out to the door.

A night bird just flew over the courtyard when the air in the courtyard suddenly collapsed. An invisible force field wrapped around the unfortunate bird. With a bird's cry, the night bird was sucked into Zhuyue's hand from more than ten feet away.

Zhuyue poured the drop of testing medicine into the night bird's mouth.

In just a few breaths, the night bird's eyes suddenly turned red, and its body more than doubled in size. With an ear-piercing tearing sound, all the skin and flesh on the night bird's body were torn apart, and its bones and meridians were all shattered.

"In this temple, my knowledge of pharmacology is only average. There are countless books on medicine in the Sutra Pavilion, and I have read only one or two of the hundred." Zhuyue's voice was clear and cool, like the cleanest stream in a valley in spring, and it was very pleasant to the ear.

She tapped the table with her slender fingers and frowned, "Luckily, I am quite interested in all kinds of evil poisons, gu poisons, and all kinds of evil and unorthodox medicines. This gourd of secret medicine, if I am not mistaken, should be the residual liquid from the Battle Demon Palace's refining of the 'Nine Transformations True Demon Pill'."

Zhuyue explained in detail the effects of the residual liquid to Lu Yi and others.

What she said was similar to what Wang Pu heard from the outer gate steward of the Battle Demon Palace after Anping was closed.

"This is not a good thing." Zhuyue sneered at the residual liquid in the gourd: "If cultivators like me take it, it will pollute our foundation of Taoism, just like ink soaked in clear water, it will take countless efforts to dispel it."

“If an ordinary person takes it, they can certainly gain a strong cultivation base in a very short period of time, but their potential will be completely exhausted in a very short period of time, and their spiritual intelligence will be annihilated, turning them into puppets, and their lives will be ruined.”

Zhu Yue shook his head and said, "You were right not to be fooled by the evil and unorthodox methods."

Frowning, Zhuyue laughed. She looked at Lu Yi, then at Lu Jun and Lu Yi, and said with a smile: "It would be unbelievable if you were fooled. How could they expect you to cooperate with them?"

Lu Yu, Lu Jun and Lu Yi all laughed at the same time.

Let the disciples of the Great Vajra Temple lead the army to attack the riots instigated by the Great Vajra Temple.

Wang Pu and his men suffered a heavy loss from this.

Zhuyue put away a set of testing equipment and the jade gourd as well: "I will take this scourge back and let the elders of this temple destroy it. It is not appropriate to keep it in your hands."

Zhuyue turned and walked out of the room, whistling softly.

She turned back and smiled at Lu Yi and the other two, "Thank you for your hard work, fellow disciples of the Great Vajra Temple. Once the spiritual energy of the heaven and earth is restored, the fire lotuses in our temple that are over a thousand years old can be picked. I will try to find a way to treat you to thousand-year-old fire lotus seeds."

A huge flamingo flew silently over the yard.

Zhuyue's body shook, and suddenly turned into a red cloud and rose into the sky, and in an instant he was on the back of the red crane.

The flamingo raised its head and soared straight up into the sky at an angle of almost ninety degrees. In an instant, it was above the very high clouds and no trace of it could be seen anymore.

Suddenly, a small black dot fell from the sky and landed straight on Lu Yi's head.

Lu Yi quickly reached out and grabbed a jade box more than a foot long that fell from the sky. He opened the jade box and found a lotus root that was a foot long, as smooth as jade, light red in color, and emitting a faint warmth.

This piece of lotus root was much higher in quality than the lotus root that Lu Yi and Lu Jun had taken a few days ago to restore their vitality. Just smelling the warm breath it exuded, a warm current surged through the body, which was enough to show how powerful it was.

"Senior Sister Zhuyue is a generous and amiable person." Lu Yi smiled and put the jade box away.

Lu Jun and Lu Yi also nodded, staring at the jade box in Lu Yi's hand with envy.

When Zhuyue was flying into the sky riding on a red crane, a team of more than a hundred people dressed in white and holding red lotus flags filed out from the back door of Wang Hu's county governor's mansion.

After walking two miles along the deserted back street, we arrived at the back door of the county magistrate's mansion.
During this extraordinary period, the back door of the county magistrate's mansion was also heavily guarded, with more than a hundred guards stationed there, and lanterns and torches lighting up the surroundings.

The hundred or so big men in white clothes did not conceal their actions at all. They openly carried flags and headed straight for the back door of the county governor's mansion.

When the guards at the gate saw the group of men in white, they immediately started to scold them.

A dull sound of breaking through the air was heard, and more than a hundred men in white clothes turned into afterimages and flew forward at the same time. With just a jump, they were in front of the guards. With a light wave of the long sword in their hands, more than a hundred guards were cut in half.

A shrill howl shattered the quiet night. A man in white clothes pressed his left hand lightly. A faint black smoke swirled in front of him. The shadow of a ferocious ghost with a hideous face flashed by. The entire back door, the gatehouse, and the walls on both sides were blown to pieces at the same time.

The loud noise alarmed the entire county magistrate's mansion. Intensive clapper sounds rang out from all directions, and the servants and guards on duty exclaimed in unison.

Lu Yu, Lu Jun and Lu Yi were just about to go back to their rooms when they suddenly heard a noise coming from not far away.

Lu Yu's expression changed slightly, and he was about to jump onto the roof to take a closer look.

His small courtyard was in the backyard of the county magistrate's mansion, separated from the garden at the back by only a wall. The men in white were extremely fast, and they obviously knew the exact location of Lu Yi. As soon as the clapper sounds were heard, they had crossed the entire back garden and rushed to the back wall of Lu Yi.

With a muffled sound, a sharp ghost howl rose into the sky.

The entire back wall of Lu Yi's courtyard collapsed, and large and small pieces of broken stones and bricks rushed in, destroying several houses in the courtyard.

Ah Hu, holding a demon-subduing pestle, rushed out of the collapsed house with a large cloud of dust: "Who stabbed me..."

A white shadow rushed in front of Ah Hu and punched him in the face.

Ah Hu let out a strange cry and smashed the demon-subduing pestle in his hand into the opponent's fist head-on.

The fist and the demon-subduing pestle collided heavily, Ah Hu vomited blood, and his arms twisted and flew backwards.

The Demon Subduing Pestle was hit hard by the opponent's fist. A flash of black smoke passed by the opponent's fist. The Demon Subduing Pestle seemed to be stimulated, and large amounts of bright red sparks spewed out, spraying all over the opponent's head and face.

The sparks quickly turned into rising flames, and the upper body of the figure in white quickly caught fire.

There was an endless stream of shrill roars. Hidden in Ah Hu's demon-subduing pestle was the karmic fire of the Great Brahma Pure World Sect, a very high-ranking and domineering flame in Buddhism, which was most incompatible with the magic techniques.

The first man who rushed into the courtyard had a cultivation level more than ten times higher than Ah Hu's, but when he was burned by the flames, black smoke kept coming out of his body, adding fuel to the fire, making the flames on his body even more intense.

In just a few breaths, the rich smell of barbecue wafted into the air.

The front door of Lu Yi's yard was kicked open, and guards including Yu Dianhu rushed in without saying a word.

Before Yu Dianhu and his men could collide with the enemy, Lu Yi had already shouted loudly: "Retreat!"

Yu Dianhu and others looked at Lu Yi at a loss.

Several men in white were already shouting the slogan "Red Lotus Appears" in a very awkward manner, and rushed in front of Lu Yi in one step. Their hands left lingering afterimages, and faint shadows of ghosts and gods could be seen flickering. A terrifying devouring and strangling force was continuously released from their palms.

Lu Yu's body paused slightly.

The suction power in the palms of these men in white was so overbearing that it not only sucked Lu Yi's body, but also caused the essence and blood in his body to fluctuate, as if it was about to be sucked out from his pores.

Lu Jun and Lu Yi shouted in unison. At this critical moment, they didn't care about hiding anything. The two brothers practiced the secret skills of the Great Vajra Temple together. A Vajra seal lit up between their brows. Their bodies suddenly grew more than a foot taller, their skin turned a light golden color, and their fists were covered with Vajra patterns, as if they were made of gold.

Four golden fists created a strong wind and hit the men in white hard.

Several people in white suddenly widened their eyes and exclaimed in horror: "You are not..."

Before setting off, these disciples of the War Demon Hall who were claiming to be rioters heard from Wang Hu that Lu Yi and the others were just ordinary disciples of the Dayin nobles who had practiced some family martial arts techniques and it was the best they could achieve if they could reach the Tuomai realm.

To these disciples of the Battle Demon Palace, the secular martial artists at the Tuomai Realm are nothing more than strong ants.

When they suddenly saw the Vajra Seal on the forehead of Lu Jun and Lu Yi, these disciples of the Battle Demon Hall cursed Wang Hu in their hearts!

Under the pretext of rioting, they actually rushed into the "nest" of the disciples of the Great Vajra Temple?

What a joke!

Lu Jun and Lu Yi shouted in unison, and their punches were like meteors, landing heavily on several disciples of the Battle Demon Hall.

The Great Vajra Temple is a Dharma protector sect of Buddhism. It excels at physical cultivation techniques, emphasizing the tempering of the Vajra body and the ability to break all laws with one force.

The fists of Lu Jun and Lu Yi were extremely hard and powerful. The Vajra Zen power they cultivated was mighty and domineering, and was filled with an unstoppable force to destroy evil.

Heavy punches landed, and the sound of broken bones was heard.

Several disciples of the Battle Demon Hall who had cast a secret spell to trap Lu Yi vomited blood and were blasted away by Lu Jun and Lu Yi.
