Volume 3: The Demonic Cult Advances Eastward Chapter 120: Go East! Go East! Go East!
At the old house of the Shen family, seeing Li Muchan stepping over the threshold, the Goddess of Bliss rushed out like a gust of wind.
Seeing that he had no missing limbs and no blood on his body, she asked with a faint smile, "But did you win?"
Li Muchan smiled and shook his head, then nodded: "I guess so."
Tieyan and the other two also came out, their faces looking a little strange.
"What's wrong?" Li Muchan asked.
Tie Er said with lingering fear: "Sir, not long after you left yesterday, the flying swordsman came. He appeared and disappeared like a ghost. The brothers didn't have time to take out the hidden weapons in their hands, and the man disappeared again."
"What did he do? What did he say?"
"No, he just stood in the backyard for a while, and we didn't dare disturb him."
"What's in the backyard?"
"A lonely grave."
As he spoke, Li Muchan went straight to the backyard and looked in the direction pointed by Tieyan and the others.
There was only an ownerless grave standing alone in the yard, with new soil exposed.
Li Muchan looked thoughtful as he glanced at the dilapidated mansion and couldn't help but sigh: "Don't panic, he probably came back to get some things and he won't appear again. After all, this is the old house of the Shen family. In fact, we are occupying someone else's place."
Tieyan and the other two were surprised when they heard this, and they also looked around and said, "So this is the former residence of the Shen family. No wonder."
The old house of the Shen family. Who could have thought that this place was once better than the Sun family, more powerful than the Shangguan family, and it became famous since the "King of Jiuzhou" Shen Tianjun. Later, it was pushed to the top by Shen Lang, and it was feared by the world and became the leader of the white way.
Unfortunately, now there are only broken walls and dilapidated tiles, and the whole place is in ruins.
"I have seen him."
"Have you seen it?"
Several people were startled at first, and then breathed a sigh of relief.
Yan San asked, "Did you fight with him?"
"No." Li Muchan smiled, facing the morning sun, a fascinating glow suddenly emerged on his pale cheeks, and a frightening spirit emerged between his brows, so fearless and ambitious, "He is gone, the old world is over, now, it's a new world."
The goddess of bliss stood behind Li Muchan, looking at the astonishing courage and ambition displayed in this man's body. Her eyes gradually became blurred and infatuated. Then she smiled softly and asked, "Whose world is this?"
Li Muchan took a deep breath and said leisurely, "Of course it's ours. The Demon Cult is a disorganized organization with mixed good and bad members. Although it has a great momentum, it is just a bunch of chickens and pottery dogs after all. Although the 'Green Dragon Society' has a strong foundation, it is a pity that the resentment is too deep. Looking at the vast martial arts world, it has long been regarded as an enemy. If it is not its own, it is its mortal enemy. I have seen its future fall. As for the 'Golden Money Gang', haha, in the current martial arts world, I am the one who holds the 'Controlling Ghosts and Gods' Order. What's the point of my superiors' power?"
He said it without hiding anything.
Tie Er and Yan San looked at each other with complicated expressions, but they did not resist. They walked to the side and lowered their heads: "We two swear to follow you till death, young master."
Compared to Qiu Xiaolou, Li Muchan can now be regarded as a very qualified, even perfect leader, except for his unclear power. How could they resist him?
Li Muchan took their reactions into account. He actually knew that these people still had concerns and hesitations, but that was nothing. There were too many people in the martial arts world who thought they could convince others with just a few words and were willing to die for them, but their endings were not good. Bai Tianyu was a good example.
He didn't want these people to just obey him verbally, he wanted them to be convinced wholeheartedly.
The Goddess of Bliss was standing behind him on his right side, one step behind him. She wanted to take this step forward, but was afraid of disturbing this figure and breaking her fantasy at this moment. She refused to retreat. Tie Yan and the other two just lowered their heads. They were too far away. If she retreated, this figure would be isolated and helpless.
Fortunately, Li Muchan said that this is their world.
They are you, me, and him, walking together as an alliance and working together.
So the goddess of bliss chose to stand still, with a beautiful smile on her bright and beautiful face, and said crisply: "Then my lord, don't go alone when encountering problems in the future. Since we are here, we should advance and retreat together."
Li Muchan turned around and glanced at the woman behind him. He actually didn't like others standing behind him because it was too dangerous. He might die with regrets or be ambushed at any time.
A smart person will never show his back.
But following the sunlight and looking at the smile on the woman's face, he smiled in silence and said, "Okay."
Finally, he added: "Don't worry , the situation is imminent. As your boss, I will always stand in front of you. At least before I fall, I will still protect you."
Another five days passed in the blink of an eye.
Several major events happened one after another in the underworld.
One of them was that Ma Kongqun, the former leader of the "Wanmatang", reappeared in the martial arts world and won over the "Peng Family" in Shanxi. He turned to attack Chang'an, and in less than two days, he teamed up with "Duoqingzi" to defeat many martial arts families.
The second is that the Great Elder of the Demon Cult fought several battles with the Tang Clan in Shu and the Sword House in Bashan in "Baidi City" and managed to capture the leaders of each faction. Wherever he went, he was invincible and no one could resist him. His demonic power was unparalleled.
As a result, together with the five major sword sects that had long since fled to the south of the Yangtze River, the northern martial arts world remained standing except for Luoyang City. The remaining 80% of the forces either surrendered without a fight, went south to avoid disaster, or simply joined the "Money Gang".
This day.
Above the city of Baoding, in the azure blue sky, a black dot suddenly appeared flying and circling without falling.
"Bah!"
The loud eagle cry broke through the air and pierced the clouds.
Elder Tie Er's expression changed slightly. He stretched out his body, jumped into the air, and in three or two jumps, he leaped onto the roof of the building. At the same time, he took out an eagle whistle from his sleeve.
“Chirp…Chirp…”
There were continuous sharp and clear whistles, and the black spot immediately responded as if it had heard a command , circling in the sky and falling like an arrow. It turned out to be a majestic goshawk, flapping its wings and coming over, its feathers like swords and its eagle eyes ferocious.
As the goshawk swooped down, several figures rushed in from outside the Shen family's old house.
They are all members of the Demonic Cult.
The first person was none other than Miao Tianwang, the leader of the "Seventy-two Caves" in Miaojiang and known as "Heavenly King Killing Demons with Knife". The rest were also members of the Demon Cult. With a wave of their hands, a goshawk landed on the opponent's arm.
"This subordinate has met the deputy leader."
The group knelt on one knee.
Li Muchan sat on a big chair, propped up his left cheek, and asked lazily, "But the followers are about to arrive?"
Miao Tianwang lowered his eyebrows and said, "Reporting to the deputy leader, the plan to advance east has changed."
"Oh?" Li Muchan slowly opened his sleepy eyes and then squinted slightly , "What kind of change is this?"
Miao Tianwang chuckled and lowered his head: "This matter is of great importance, your subordinates..."
Li Muchan glanced at the few people with a smile, and then said meaningfully: "Don't be impatient, take a breath first and speak slowly."
He took out a few banknotes from his sleeve and said, "Thank you for your hard work, brothers."
"Thank you, Vice-Master," Miao Tianwang grinned, took the silver, and then replied respectfully: "Master decided to take Jiangnan first. Now that the martial arts heroes from the north and south have gathered together, it is a great opportunity to catch them all in one fell swoop."
"Jiangnan? Aren't we going to take the northern martial arts world first?" Li Muchan sat up straight, a little surprised, frowned and said, "Besides, those people haven't arrived yet."
Unexpectedly, Miao Tianwang's words were very surprising: "Reporting to the young master, in fact, a large number of troops have already entered the heart of the Central Plains through the Yangtze River waterway."
Hearing this, Li Muchan's eyes sparkled. After a long silence, he smiled and sighed, "I see. It seems that the leader still doesn't trust us enough to play such a trick. He deliberately told us to take over the northern martial arts world first, and while all forces were paying attention to the situation in the northern martial arts world, he hid the truth and sneaked into Jiangnan."
Miao Shaotian laughed twice: "Deputy leader, please don't worry. This is also for the sake of being foolproof. After all, the Qinglong Society has many eyes and ears. If the news is leaked, the other party will be prepared."
Li Muchan nodded: "That's true, does the leader have any instructions? "
Miao Tianwang's eyes lit up and he cleared his throat: "According to the leader's order, the deputy leader and the two elders are ordered to leave for Jiangnan immediately and join the army..."
