Chapter 419: Chasing the Demons
"Bai Wan from the Ice Spirit Clan." Bai Wan stated her origins very straightforwardly.
A look of surprise appeared on Gao Ming's face. He had heard a long time ago that there were four hidden races in the world, and the Ice Spirit Clan was one of them.
He originally thought that this was just a rumor, but now that he heard that someone from the Ice Spirit Clan really appeared, he was naturally very shocked.
"The Grand Elder of the Nanli Sect, Chen Li." Chen Li naturally had no intention of hiding his identity and said it very bluntly.
After hearing about Chen Li's background, Gao Ming and Bai Wan were stunned. They didn't expect that the person in front of them was from Nanli Sect.
Especially Gao Ming, he really didn't expect that Nanli Sect was just a middle-ranking sect among the hundreds of sects. Although he was appreciated by Xuantian Sect, he didn't expect that its chief elder would be in the late stage of Spirit Transformation.
As for Bai Wan, what shocked her was that Chen Li was actually the elder of the Nanli Sect who had never been attacked by the demons.
But now it makes sense. Chen Li has the cultivation level of the late stage of Spirit Transformation. How could those demons possibly deal with the Nanli Sect?
But this shouldn't be the case. Chen Li has been away from Nanli Sect for such a long time. Logically speaking, the sect would not have any resources to resist.
But why is it that after such a long time, Nanli Sect still has not been invaded by the demons, and no one even dares to take action?
"It seems that you are quite surprised about my identity." Chen Li looked at their surprised expressions and said calmly.
Gao Ming also came back to his senses at this time, and said with a smile, "I heard a few years ago that Nanli Sect had an elder in the Spiritualization Stage, but I never thought he would be so young."
"Let's stop talking about small talk and talk about business. Tell me, who is the Demon Lord who covets Lingxiao Sect?" Chen Li looked at Gao Ming and asked seriously.
Gao Ming grabbed the file that had been placed on the chair with his right hand, then opened it, and the words on it appeared in the air.
After Chen Li and Bai Wan saw the file, they were both surprised. They didn't expect the situation to be like this.
"A demon lord who can control strong people of the same realm, and whose figure is like that of a human. Where on earth does he come from?" Bai Wan took a breath. She didn't expect that there would be such a situation.
Chen Li stroked his chin, seeming to have realized the problem. "So it was him? I didn't expect that this guy would appear again after disappearing for a while."
If my guess is correct, this guy should be Yun Yi. But wasn’t the puppet in the late stage of the Spirit Transformation in that guy’s hand destroyed by himself? Why is it still there?
It seems that if I want to know the situation, I can only take the initiative to find that guy. But I don’t know where he is now, so I better be cautious for now.
"Does your Excellency know this demon?" Gao Ming, who was standing there, asked.
Chen Li nodded and replied: "I have some answers, but I'm not sure if it's that guy. Can you tell me where he is ?"
"They are lying in ambush on the plain three hundred miles away from Lingxiao Sect." Gao Ming took out the map and pointed to a plain.
Although it was an ambush, their posture did not look like an ambush at all. Instead, it seemed like they were waiting for the other party to take the initiative to attack.
"Prepare some disciples and elders with stronger abilities and come with me." Chen Li said calmly.
Gao Ming was stunned by this sentence. "Does your Excellency intend to take the initiative to attack?"
"If you don't take the initiative to attack, do you intend to wait for the other party to devour Lingxiao Sect?" Chen Li stared at Gao Ming and questioned.
Gao Ming fell into deep thought. Before Chen Li and the others came to support him, Lingxiao Sect had been in trouble.
Moreover, the demon in the late stage of the Spirit Transformation had always made him feel worried. Now he also had a helper in the late stage of the Spirit Transformation. If he did not take this opportunity to take the initiative to attack, Lingxiao Sect would probably be doomed sooner or later.
"I understand. Gather them now." Gao Ming then issued an order to gather all the Yuanying-stage elders and Jindan-stage disciples of Lingxiao Sect.
There were quite a few disciples and elders gathered in the sect, but they still left a small part of their forces in the sect to maintain the operation of the formation.
After gathering these forces, they headed towards Tianhong City, because the location of those demons was not far from Tianhong City.
When we arrived at Tianhong City again, it was already a day later. The defense of this place had been completed, but surprisingly, there was no invasion by demons this time.
When Lin Qing saw Bai Wan and the others arriving, he breathed a sigh of relief and then walked forward.
"It seems that the matter has been settled." Lin Qing walked up to Bai Wan and asked with a smile.
Bai Wan nodded and said, "Go gather some Nascent Soul cultivators and follow us."
"Am I going too?" Lin Qing pointed at himself and asked doubtfully.
"Well, this time we need to take the initiative and help the seniors to contain those enemies." Bai Wan replied.
What they need to do now is to help Chen Li kill those demons when he is fighting against the powerful late-stage Spirit Transformation Realm expert.
Lin Qing naturally knew this, so without any hesitation, he immediately began to gather people, then took the Feiyun Boat and left here.
Three hundred miles is not far away. When they arrived at the plain, they found that it was filled with a lot of dark demonic energy.
Looking at the situation in front of him, Chen Li showed displeasure on his face. It seemed that this place had completely become a gathering place for demons .
At this moment, a demonic energy suddenly attacked at an extremely fast speed. When it was about to hit the Feiyun Boat, it was blocked by a sword light.
Such a situation was quite unexpected. If Chen Li hadn't reacted quickly, this move would have directly destroyed the Feiyun Boat.
By then, not only will the Feiyun Boat be destroyed, but many cultivators on the Feiyun Boat will probably die here.
"It seems that we have been discovered. There is no need to waste time anymore. Let's take action." Chen Li looked at the demons gathered below and spoke lightly.
The moment the words fell, many cultivators had already gotten off the Feiyun Boat and launched an attack on the demons.
Chen Li was staring at a figure not far ahead. The moment he saw that person, he understood that his guess was correct. This person was Yun Yi.
So Chen Li didn't hesitate at all, and immediately flew forward, and the long sword in his hand suddenly slashed out a sword energy.
However, just when it was about to hit Yun Yi, it was blocked by a black figure. The other party's body looked extremely huge, and the demonic energy on his body was also very strong.
"It's been such a short time and you already have a new puppet. It seems that you are more fickle than I thought." Chen Li looked at Yun Yi and said coldly.
Yun Yi snorted, stared at Chen Li and said, "You have already killed my previous puppet, can't I replace it?"
It took him a lot of effort to finally get a new puppet from his master, and he also paid a considerable price.
"Well, no matter what kind of puppet you have, I will destroy it, and I will never let you escape this time." Chen Li said.
Yun Yi sneered, "You are so arrogant. Do you really think I will be the same as before?"
After saying this, Yun Yi had already launched his attack. His figure became more and more illusory, and the next moment he appeared in front of Chen Li.
Bang! The sudden punch hit Chen Li directly , causing him to step back several steps. The puppet had already started to move, holding a dagger in its hand, pointing it at Chen Li's throat.
However, when Chen Li saw the dagger, he was stunned, and then he understood. Is this what love is all about?
Looking at the dagger that was about to hit his throat, Chen Li quickly blocked the attack with the Sword of Four Seasons in his hand and suddenly struck forward with a palm.
This palm pushed the puppet back a long distance, causing his hood to fall off, revealing his hideous face.
Looking at this face, the corners of Chen Li's mouth slowly rose, "It's just as I thought. It seems that your master really doesn't treat his compatriots as human beings."
This puppet was none other than Luo Yi whom he had met before in Square City. He originally thought that this guy was hiding somewhere, but he did not expect that he had been refined into a puppet.
"After all, he is just useless. I heard that the Demon-Slaying Core is in your hands. If you are willing to hand it over, I can give you a quick death." Yun Yi stretched out his hand to Chen Li and said lightly.
Of course he knew where the puppets he controlled came from and how they were made. In the final analysis, they were just losers.
I can definitely do what these guys can't do, and my master has high hopes for me, so I naturally can't let him down.
Because once he is disappointed, Luo Yi's fate will be the consequence, so what needs to be done now is to kill Chen Li and seize the Demon-Slaying Core.
Of course, this is not his mission. His main mission is to occupy Tianhong City and destroy Lingxiao Sect.
As for seizing the Demon-Slaying Core, this is just a side job. As long as he can get the Demon-Slaying Core back, he will definitely be able to get something better at that time.
The smile on Chen Li's face became even stronger. "It seems that you don't quite understand my strength. In that case, I will let you die here today."
After saying that, he quickly took a step forward, only to find that Luo Yi was already standing in front of him, with a cold light flashing from his dagger.
Bang! The spiritual energy and the demonic energy collided, causing both to step back a few steps. Chen Li was a little shocked . If he hadn't reacted quickly, this move would have really cut off his neck.
Yun Yi was actually also very surprised. Why was Chen Li's reaction so fast? Even he could not defend against such an attack, but Chen Li did.
"That's all." Yun Yi snorted coldly. He didn't care about anything else and just wanted to kill Chen Li.
