Volume 1: The Jianghu is the main thing, who is the guest? Chapter 19: Demonic Princess
It was a cloudless and moonless night.
The weather is getting colder.
In the Forest of Hundred Ghosts, after finding Li Muchan, the "Thunder Envoy", three of the "Four Envoys" of the Demon Cult have gathered.
The old man is called "Water Master". His personality is as his name suggests, calm and steady, always considering the overall situation. Even his inner strength is as gentle as water, and his mind is unfathomable.
The tall man is the "Fire Master". He looks sinister, but he is as hot-tempered as fire. He has a strong murderous intent and wants to take people's lives at any time. Moreover, this "fire" has another meaning. It is probably that the martial arts practiced by this person are strange, and his lust is extremely strong. It can last for one day or three days. He needs to find a woman to harmonize his yin and yang, otherwise his eyes will be bloodshot, his qi and blood will be turbulent, and he will look like a demon.
This is what Li Muchan discovered after the two of them hid in the Forest of Hundred Ghosts.
But all this was seen with the naked eye after all, and he no longer believed his own eyes. At least before these people turned into corpses, they were not worth trusting.
And now it is the fifth day.
The originally deserted cemetery has now become a good place to hide from others.
Suddenly, a figure was seen moving outside the forest, and dozens of ghostly figures quietly floated over, all of them were very cunning, some hiding in the forest, some resting in the shadows on the treetops, and some hiding in the darkness, all hiding themselves very well.
It was not until the water messenger spoke and revealed the secret order of the Demon Cult's leader that these people appeared from the night, revealing their figures like fish swimming in the water.
"Why did you choose such a weird place?"
These people included men, women, young and old, and differently. Some looked like amiable old rich men; some wore cloth clothes and straw sandals, and carried a bundle of firewood, looking like woodcutters; there were also old women carrying baskets, dwarfs with monkey masks on their faces, young men dressed like waiters, slovenly Taoists, and monks with greasy faces...
However, a few women stood out from the crowd and occupied a special place.
The person who spoke was the leader, a beautiful middle-aged woman. She was wearing a fox fur robe and had her black hair tied up with a wooden hairpin. She walked at a leisurely pace, looking around with her almond-shaped eyes, and her words seemed to show some disgust for this place.
The water envoy looked indifferent and greeted, "The one next to me is the thunder envoy."
After that, he introduced Li Muchan: "These people are the followers who have sneaked into Luoyang from various provinces recently to gather information, and she..."
The water envoy looked at the beautiful woman, paused, his eyes flickered, and whispered: "She is one of the four princesses of the Holy Church."
Over the past two months, Li Muchan was not completely immersed in practicing evil skills. He had read many secret scrolls that recorded the many secrets of the martial arts world and the distribution of various forces.
Among them there are many evil cults.
In addition to their four guardians, there are also four elders, four princesses, and four deputy leaders.
And the only one is the leader of the Demon Cult, the most supreme and powerful.
These people all led many demons to rule one side and intimidate the countries in the Western Regions. Like the "Seven Dragon Heads" of the Azure Dragon Society, they are all very powerful.
However, these "four princesses" are not unfamiliar with the Central Plains martial arts world.
In the past, the "Divine Sword Hall" was a dominant force, and its power was no less than that of the "Money Gang". The hall master Bai Tianyu relied on the "Bai Family Sword Technique" to single-handedly stop the Demon Cult from advancing eastward, and he defeated the demons in Tianshan Mountain, and even the Demon Cult's leader was defeated by him.
Later, the "grand princess" Hua Baifeng was ordered to sneak into the Central Plains, waiting for an opportunity to get close to Bai Tianyu in order to learn the "Bai Family Sword Technique". Unexpectedly, she fell in love with this man over time and thus betrayed the Demon Sect.
Moreover, Hua Baifeng also has two extraordinary sons.
One of them is Ye Kai, the successor of "Little Li Flying Dagger" who is now causing a sensation in the martial arts world.
The other is the most terrifying figure in today's martial arts world, the "Sword Saint" Fu Hongxue.
The beautiful middle-aged woman glanced at Li Muchan and said indifferently, "Thunder Envoy? Not only did the old man who was responsible for delivering the message betray our religion, he also sold out all the bases in Luoyang City. Together with the traitor Shangguan Xiaoxian, all the disciples of our religion were killed. How come he survived? Water Envoy, I see that you are obviously old and your eyes are blurry. You actually believed in such a person."
As soon as she opened her mouth, several maids around her, along with all kinds of people, dispersed and surrounded Li Muchan, ready to kill her on the spot if they had a disagreement.
The water envoy's face turned pale, and his already intimidating eyes suddenly widened, almost as if they were about to pop out of their sockets. He said in a cold voice, "Do you want to disobey the leader's decree?"
The beautiful middle-aged woman smiled charmingly and blinked her eyes: "Don't use the leader to pressure me, I am also thinking about the Holy Church. Besides, this matter is of great importance. If we are not careful, all of us will die without a burial place."
Li Muchan stood quietly without saying a word, but he was weighing and calculating in his mind.
This time, Ye Kai and Shangguan Xiaoxian went together. He was no longer thinking about how to take action, but how to survive.
What a joke, just because this group of idiots want to kill those two people, not to mention the "Qinglong Society", they will probably have to confess.
But at this time, the water envoy's originally mild appearance gradually changed, becoming irritable and restless, his eyes began to become sinister, his hands and feet trembled slightly, as if he was possessed by a demon.
Li Muchan and the Fire Envoy both felt a chill coming at the same time.
The fire monster laughed and retreated repeatedly, already retreating.
Li Muchan's eyes sparkled, and he also dodged and distanced himself.
The middle-aged beautiful woman's smile faded, her almond-shaped eyes narrowed slightly, and she asked in surprise: "Old thing, you..."
Before she finished her words, a thin layer of frost had formed on the water messenger's brow. He dodged and reached out to grab a nearby maid, then leaped towards the graves, and then a shrill scream was heard.
"ah!"
Wait until everyone arrives.
The water messenger was seen holding the maid's shoulders and kissing her.
But a terrible scene happened afterwards. The maid's delicate and charming face suddenly dimmed rapidly, as if all the colors of a living person had faded away, and became deathly pale. Her eyes rolled up, and she was dead in the blink of an eye.
Everyone's face changed drastically and they retreated secretly.
Li Muchan was also shocked by what he saw, and wondered what kind of weird Kung Fu this old guy practiced. It felt even more weird than his "Ghost Secret Book".
As the maid lost her life, the water master recovered as normal, with wisps of water vapor emanating from his body.
The beautiful woman raised her eyebrows and said in a coquettish voice, "How dare you!"
She was about to make a move, but suddenly she felt something strange beside her. She saw a figure quietly approaching her, whispering in her ear like a lover: "Don't move, Third Princess."
The beautiful woman's body trembled, she bent her steps and turned quickly, looking back, she saw that the Fire Master's double swords had hooked the snow-white necks of the two maids, and he was stepping on them like an executioner, like lambs to be slaughtered.
The others were all horrified and extremely fearful upon seeing this.
The fire master kicked away the two maids who had already been frightened silly. He held two swords in his hands, his deep and fierce eyes rolled around, and he laughed softly, "Don't think you can act recklessly just because someone is backing you up. I have executed at least 800 traitors with my sword over the years. If you dare to cause trouble, I don't mind adding you. It just saves me the trouble of choosing a place."
The water master walked over slowly, regaining his peaceful appearance, and threw the female corpse into the grave like a rag, without even looking at it, and said casually: "This place is too yin, and I forgot that I still have an old illness."
Li Muchan witnessed all this and paid attention to what the Fire Envoy said earlier. It seemed that the Demon Cult was not united from top to bottom. Moreover, it seemed that the Water and Fire Envoys had each cultivated some strange and unorthodox skills and were named after their hobbies and habits.
The middle-aged beauty's face was as cold as frost, but she soon smiled and said in a sweet voice with curved eyes, "She is just a little girl I kidnapped casually. Just consider her as a gift to Tie Gu... I apologize for offending you before. Please forgive me, Thunder Envoy."
Tie Gu, it turns out that the third princess of the Demon Cult is named "Tie Gu".
Li Muchan glanced at the corpse, then looked back at the members of the Demon Cult, and stared at Tie Gu for a moment, then smiled and squinted his eyes and said, "It's okay!"
The water master acted as if nothing had happened. Seeing that no one had any objections, he said with satisfaction, "In that case, how is the 'Lady of the South Sea'?"
He was asking about Tiegu.
Tie Gu smiled and said, "Of course he is dead."
This lady from the South China Sea once dominated the Central Plains martial arts world and fascinated everyone. Her notoriety was so great that countless people were terrified, but she was a traitor to the Demon Cult.
The Water Envoy nodded and said, "Very good. This time we must not only kill Shangguan Xiaoxian and seize the treasures of the Money Gang, but we must also not let Ye Kai go. Not only is he Hua Baifeng's flesh and blood, he has also learned the 'Little Li Flying Dagger'. How can such a magical skill not be collected by the leader... Thunder Envoy, what do you think?"
Li Muchan remained expressionless, his eyes flickered slightly, and he said softly, "Good idea!"
The water envoy nodded and said, "That's good. You will be in charge of this matter!"
Li Muchan: ...
