Volume 3: The Demonic Cult Advances Eastward Chapter 126 Hunting
"Li Muchan, your journey has come to an end."
Xiao Siwu came neither hurriedly nor slowly and stopped ten feet away. Not only did his appearance change, but even his voice became hoarse and unclear, as if there was a stone blocking his throat, which was harsh and unpleasant.
As the wind and snow blew in his face, Li Muchan paid attention to the movements in all directions while sizing up the other party with interest. He said softly, "After the battle of Jinling City, you should know that you are no match for me. Since you have escaped and survived, why do you want to die again?"
The eyes of the Sixth Dragon Leader turned even redder, so red that they seemed to bleed. He screamed, "If we fight alone, I will never lose to you. How can I accept that? Moreover, this half-human, half-ghost appearance of mine is caused by you. This world is destined to be either you or me."
He had stopped and did not move forward or make a move, but a figure rushed out from behind him and pounced on him.
In fact, not only Li Muchan encountered the enemy, the remaining three parties were ambushed almost at the same time.
The five major sword sects and Excalibur Villa are trying to stop Ma Kongqun.
Peacock Villa teamed up with the bandits to kill the romantic man.
On Qiu Xiaolou's side, it was Ye Kai and Fu Hongxue.
They were headed by the Ding family and also gathered a lot of people, including Lu Xiaojia and Ding Lingzhong. They were all masters and all extraordinary.
In short, it seemed as if there were people everywhere and sounds of killing everywhere in an instant.
The forces that were originally enemies temporarily put aside their grudges and decided to wipe out the evil cult in one fell swoop.
Li Muchan could no longer maintain his calm and composed appearance. He looked at Xiao Siwu without turning back and said solemnly, "Hold steady."
A thrilling feeling as if walking on a knife edge made his heart shrink constantly, and then expand and beat wildly. His black and white eyes unconsciously revealed sinisterness, became cold, chilly and blue, like a ghost fire, burning.
He gave orders in an orderly manner: "Tieyan, Miao Tianwang, the three of you keep an eye on the movements in all directions, help the brothers deal with the masters, and remind me at any time. Tiannu, you protect me from behind, and the thirty-six caves of evil will protect the four directions. You can use hidden weapons when necessary. The rest of you should not panic. Protecting yourself is the most important thing. Also... follow closely."
"yes!"
After hearing a series of commands, the panicked crowd immediately calmed down, and Li Muchan's clear and penetrating voice almost fell into everyone's ears.
As a result, an extremely strange scene appeared in the chaotic battle circle.
Unlike the other three parties who were constantly fighting, only Li Muchan's side was becoming more and more stable.
A group of people pointed their blades outwards, almost instantly forming a large circle, and in the large circle, Tieyan and the other two and Miao Tianwang moved back and forth, killing the enemies. There was also a small circle inside, which was the group of evil spirits from the thirty-six caves, and they were protecting Li Muchan and the goddess of bliss.
Those who were sneaking around without their swords pointing outwards but were watching carefully were hacked to death by Tieyan and his men.
"Don't panic, they are all spies planted by other forces." Li Muchan admired the actions of Tieyan and the others. "At this moment, the only way for us to save our lives is to move out together."
"Don't worry, sir. The brothers will listen to your orders."
Someone was extremely excited and responded.
“That’s right!”
"Sir, please arrange it."
"You may do as you please, sir."
…
Others responded.
Seeing this scene and witnessing such a strange formation, Xiao Siwu's pupils trembled wildly, but he had learned a heavy lesson and paid a huge price. Facing the former Seven Dragon Head, he did not rush to advance, but coldly ordered: "Release the hidden weapons!"
In an instant, in the wind and snow, dozens or even hundreds of streaks of light were seen rushing towards them, breaking through the air and shooting towards Li Muchan and the others.
Li Muchan said nothing, but advanced instead of retreating. His long sword made a humming sound, and the sword shadows flowed with rapid sword light. The two swords drew frost and rolled up snow. Under the sharp sword force, the hidden weapons that were shot at him from all directions were immediately pulled by an invisible force, and their trajectories were deflected.
Looking at the two strangely shaped cold knives, one green and one silver, Xiao Siwu's pupils suddenly froze. In just a moment, Li Muchan's long sword spun around, and all the hidden weapons changed with the sword's momentum, circling in the wind and snow and returning the same way.
“Puff, puff, puff…”
In the snow and wind, suddenly, beautiful and sad blood flowers bloomed in the sky.
Ignoring the life and death of the people around him, Xiao Siwu looked coldly at Li Muchan, without even looking at him, and casually flicked the bullets in the air. With a series of "ding ding" sounds, one hidden weapon after another was knocked down and fell on the snow.
Suddenly, Xiao Siwu said in a deep voice: "Change firearms."
Hearing the word "firearm", Li Muchan's pupils seemed to widen in an instant, and he suddenly took two steps back with an expressionless face.
But passing by him were a dozen or twenty figures, each of whom was holding an ugly cylinder in his hand. Under Xiao Siwu's wildly shrinking pupils, he suddenly saw hundreds of streams of light falling into his eyes like a rain of pear blossoms amid the ringing of springs.
It was full of hidden arrows, covering the sky and the earth, densely packed.
"ah!"
Xiao Siwu let out a sharp roar and reacted extremely quickly. He leaped back and at the same time stretched out his hands in the air, grabbing the two Qinglong Society disciples who were nearby and bringing them in front of him to block the terrifying rain of arrows.
In an instant, screams rang out one after another, and corpses with holes all over them staggered to the ground, their deaths were horrible.
After the first strike, everyone retreated and began to reload their hidden arrows.
Seeing such a deadly weapon, the expressions of the group of cult followers became even more excited.
"This guy has become unscrupulous in order to win." Tie Er said.
Looking at Xiao Siwu who was retreating, Li Muchan's eyes were cold: "It doesn't matter. He won't live long anyway."
After temporarily forcing the enemy back, Li Muchan quickly took stock of the situation on all sides.
In just a short while, the four groups of the Demon Cult were cut off by various forces, making it difficult to take care of both ends.
There was chaos everywhere, and sounds of killing could be heard everywhere.
Ma Kongqun was fighting with disciples from several sects, and Duoqingzi was carrying the "Heaven-Destroying and Earth-Murdering Soul-Searching Hands", and his hands were emitting a strange and evil ochre color. Anyone touched by his hands would immediately become withered and look like dry firewood, as if all their energy and spirit were sucked out.
On the other hand, Duoqingzi became more and more courageous as the battle went on, his face flushed with a rosy glow, as if he had received a great tonic.
The one who fought with him was actually "Snake Whip" Ximen Rou.
Qiu Shuiqing obviously has not arrived yet.
Li Muchan's eyes flickered, and he said quickly, "Follow the leader ."
Everyone immediately maintained their formation, fending off attacks from all around while moving towards Qiu Xiaolou and the others.
With just this action, after walking a short distance, the eyes of the cult members who had been scattered around them suddenly brightened up, as if they had seen a savior, and they all gathered around him, like thousands of rivers flowing into a river, and their numbers grew rapidly.
In a blink of an eye, more than two thousand people gathered.
Qiu Xiaolou was confronting Ye Kai and Fu Hongxue with a gloomy face and cold eyes. They did not take action, but the flying knife in Ye Kai's hand gave people great pressure, and the black knife in Fu Hongxue's hand was also not ordinary.
For people at this level, if they don't move, it's fine, but if they take action, it could mean the difference between life and death.
No one is sure, and no one dares to act rashly.
"Master, I am too late to save you!"
It was not until Li Muchan's voice sounded that the Great Elder breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that he was able to control the situation and stabilize people's hearts.
Qiu Xiaolou looked at Li Muchan deeply and praised him meaningfully, "Young Master Ghost is indeed amazing. If you can escape this battle unscathed, I will definitely credit you with the first achievement."
Ye Kai and Fu Hongxue had already retreated the moment they saw Li Muchan, leading everyone to temporarily avoid the spotlight.
Soon after, the troops from the other two parties also came over.
Qiu Xiaolou immediately said in a deep voice: "From now on, everyone will be temporarily under the command of the deputy leader. Do not disobey and continue to break through."
※※※
When the demons marched northward in a mighty force, Ye Kai, Lu Xiaojia and others appeared with complicated expressions.
Ye Kai sighed: "Why do I feel that the one we should deal with most in this battle is not the Demon Cult, but this Ghost Young Master?"
Ding Lingzhong shook his head: "It's too difficult. Facing this person, you can only say you have won when he is completely dead. Otherwise, as long as he is still alive, this person seems to be able to turn the tables at any time and win, and he always has a backup plan."
Fu Hongxue simply said one word: "Go!"
Where to go?
Naturally, go north.
The fight seemed brutal, but in fact most of the soldiers were injured. Except for the Qinglong Society, only a few people from other forces lost their lives.
After all, the trap has been set. There is no need for bloodshed and sacrifice. As long as these people are driven in, the trap can be solved without bloodshed.
Xiao Siwu walked over.
Ximen Rou also led the crowd to rush over.
People from the Excalibur Villa also gathered together.
Everyone looked at each other and said in unison: "Chase!"
