Volume 3: The Demonic Cult Advances Eastward Chapter 111: Tianmei Palace Master
"You all came here for me?"
Faced with a powerful enemy, Li Muchan's face seemed to turn paler and colder , but he was not panicked. He drank the last sip of wine.
You have to know that their trip was extremely secretive, and they mostly traveled at night, but the news still leaked out. This shows that there are also restless people in the Demon Cult.
Li Muchan swept her eyes across the groups of people in the store and soon came up with a guess.
This person not only colluded with the "Green Dragon Society", but also joined hands with the "Golden Money Gang", and even the Central Plains White Dao was not left out. His identity must be unusual. He must be an important figure in the Demon Sect and has a special status.
Because only such people are qualified and confident enough to form an alliance with several forces.
This person could not possibly be the Great Elder. He should be someone hiding in the dark and not showing up yet.
Fortunately, the word "betrayal" is no longer new to Li Muchan.
Moreover, this incident shows that Qiu Xiaolou is very strong.
Li Muchan couldn't help but think of Qiu Xiaolou's extremely young sallow face. Although the other party looked very young, it would be a big mistake to really regard him as a rising star.
Don't forget, the battle between the old leader of the Demon Cult and Bai Tianyu was more than 20 years ago; Qiu Xiaolou is at least 40 years old, and he must have mastered some kind of magic skill, so his appearance has not changed.
This person is at the peak of his life and in the prime of his body, at the time when he is full of vigor and vitality.
Precisely because he is too strong, even those white forces dare not place all their hopes on Xie Xiaofeng, and are willing to join forces with the people of the Demon Cult.
Who could it be?
As for the current situation, Li Muchan might as well make a bold guess. It should be the condition of cooperation among several parties to kill him first.
Because he is rich, very rich. You should know that tens of thousands of demons are on their way, and these people need a large sum of money just for their daily food and drink, and they also have to integrate into all parties in the Central Plains. If Qiu Xiaolou wants to control the situation in a short time, he can only rely on him, Li Muchan.
Besides, it’s the end of winter now and it’s too cold. Without him, how long can those evil followers last?
When only those people on Mount Emei are left under Qiu Xiaolou's command, then it will be time for the heroes to fight the demons.
Ye Kai suddenly smiled and said, "I'm here to drink."
He really just drank.
Ding Linglin was angry, then smiled and said, "Then I'll drink too."
Ding Lingzhong said: "Good wine!"
Lu Xiaojia followed up and said, “It’s really a good wine!”
Guo Ding held his sword and said nothing.
The man in purple also drank by himself without saying anything.
These people are all masters, and masters disdain to join forces.
Sun Wuer's messy yellow hair was covered with snowflakes. He twisted his eyebrows and stood at the door, carrying an iron rod, and said in a grim tone: "Don't bother. The people you brought with you can't come."
This time, Li Muchan was also accompanied by the Thirty-Six Caves’ evil spirits, the two elders Tie Yan, and their subordinates.
The two sides split their troops into two groups, one to recruit the major families, and the other to deal with the lone masters.
Li Muchan's eyes flickered and he nodded: "Do you just want to kill me?"
Sun Wuer naturally understood what he meant. He didn't even look at Ji Le Tian Nu, and smiled: "I don't bother to fight with women."
At this point, everyone's eyes were more or less shining.
The atmosphere was originally hot, and the scorching smoke from the fireworks suddenly seemed to freeze into ice at this moment , turning into a cold knife or a sword, piercing one's heart.
Li Muchan stopped talking. He put down the wine cup, then stood up from the table. His figure seemed to blend into the incoming snow and wind, turning into a quick shadow, passing by Sun Wuer and squeezing into the vast snow curtain outside.
Sun Wuer turned and ran into the snow, laughing wildly, "Go to death."
※※※
At the same time, when something unexpected happened in the shop, something also happened in another place in Baoding City.
Heavy snow was falling as fires began to light up in a dilapidated mansion.
The old residence of the Shen family.
There were shadowy figures inside, and many demons showed up, including the two elders Tieyan and the evil spirits from the thirty-six caves.
In the ruined hall, everyone sat around the fire.
Estimating the time, someone from the Thirty-Sixth Cave reminded: "Elder, the deputy leader and his men haven't returned for a long time, should we go..."
This person stopped talking at the right time, and did not say everything, but Elder Tie Er already understood. He smiled and said, "Don't worry, the several well-known forces in Baoding City have been dealt with anyway, so why not wait a little longer."
Elder Yan San also laughed and said, "That's right. It's snowing hard outside. It's so cold. Besides, the deputy leader has great magical powers and is accompanied by the goddess of bliss. How could there be any danger? Haha, what if they have found a warm place and are having fun? If we act rashly, wouldn't we disturb the deputy leader's mood?"
The two of them sat by the fire, with jars of wine and many dishes placed beside them.
Elder Tie Er greeted them in a familiar tone, "Brothers, you have been busy all day. Take a breath first. Let's drink some wine to warm our bodies. After we have eaten and drunk enough, if the deputy leader has not returned yet, it will not be too late to go later."
As he spoke, Elder Yan San had already broken the mud seal on the wine jar and filled the wine bowls on the ground one by one.
At this time——
"Hehe," a cold and gloomy voice sounded from the Thirty-Sixth Cave, "Could it be that the two elders have other ideas?"
Elder Tie Er and Elder Yan San kept smiling: "How can that be? Everyone, please eat and drink without worries."
The voice asked again: "If there is nothing, how come someone put drugs in this wine?"
The two elders Tieyan finally stopped laughing and quickly scanned everyone, trying to find the person who was talking in secret: "I didn't expect that there are other good players in the Thirty-Six Caves besides the Bliss Goddess."
Elder Yan San smiled faintly and said, "Haha, this is good, it saves us trouble."
Elder Tie Er added: "There are two paths before you now. One is for you to be the leader and bring your brothers with you to do something big with us. The other is to die here."
Unknowingly, the demons had formed a formation and trapped the thirty-six cave evil spirits inside.
The voice spoke again: "So, you want to apostatize?"
Elder Tie Er's face was somewhat gloomy. It was really that the voice was erratic and it was hard to tell the direction. He snorted coldly, "Not everyone has the same ambition as the leader. We are already living a comfortable and carefree life with fine clothes and delicious food. Why do we have to march eastward to the Central Plains and fight to the death? Moreover, after he came out of retreat, he formulated a lot of strict rules, which made people miserable. And it can't be regarded as a judgment of the sect. At best, we just want to change a new leader."
"I see."
The mysterious voice made people realize that these people had long been accustomed to enjoying themselves and being comfortable. They no longer had the desire to dominate the Central Plains and only cared about the wealth and glory in front of them.
Just when the stalemate happened, a shadow suddenly floated in the wind and snow. It was a woman in a black skirt, black gauze, and black cloak. Her hair was as white as clouds and she had pearl hairpins lying across her face. Her figure alone was so beautiful that it was beyond description.
"Well," the person came in a soft voice, with moving eyes and a pair of embroidered shoes on his feet. He came lightly, "Why isn't it over yet?"
The two elders Tieyan replied respectfully, "Palace Master, it will be done right away."
The erratic voice sighed, "The women in this world are really more capable than each other... Then may I ask this Palace Master, what should I call you?"
The woman's eyes swam with a hint of curiosity, and then she bowed and saluted, saying tenderly, "My slave is Sun Xingyu."
"Sun Xingyu?" In the corner, as the voice fell, a ghostly figure suddenly appeared in front of everyone's eyes, hidden under the shadow of the lamp, "Excuse me, where do you live?"
The woman chuckled and uttered four words: "Yaohu Demon Palace."
But the expressions of Tieyan and the other two suddenly became strange.
It was because the man in the shadow was walking out slowly. He was wearing a wide black robe with a stand-up collar. The corners of the robe dragged on the ground and two long sleeves hung down. As he changed his steps, two swords slipped out from his sleeves, one on the left and one on the right.
The man walked from the shadows to the firelight, revealing a face wearing a golden mask. His deep eyes rolled around. "So you are the 'Palace Master of Tianmei'. Nice to meet you. I am the Second Leader of the 'World Alliance'."
"World Alliance?"
When they heard this name for the first time, Tieyan and the others were stunned.
But their eyes suddenly widened, and they were horrified. They saw that the man from the thirty-six holes suddenly turned his hand, and a black cylindrical object appeared in his palm. Then he raised his hand and sent...
"ah!"
In an instant, it seemed as if thousands of streams of light appeared before everyone's eyes.
