Volume 3: The Demonic Cult Advances Eastward Chapter 135 Commanding the Demons
The night wind blows and the dust settles.
Looking at the headless body of the old lama, everyone couldn't help but feel a lot of emotion.
This person was originally invincible and could kill everyone, but he made a piece of precious clothes that was difficult to be damaged by swords, so he trapped himself and lost a great opportunity.
But in the final analysis, it is still the state of mind that is lacking.
Some people fail countless times, but become more and more courageous. Some people regard failure once as a lifelong nightmare.
This man has been in a state of constant fear just because he was defeated by Xiao Li Feidao. Even though he has mastered the unique skill of Heng Lian, which makes him invulnerable to swords and spears, he still has to rely on rare treasures to regain his confidence. He is missing the point and pursuing the wrong thing. It is ridiculous, sad and lamentable.
Li Muchan smiled and said, "It seems that he is not really invincible!"
Although the old lama was dead, the murderous intent remained.
Because everyone's murderous intentions had turned towards him and surrounded him.
Li Muchan's reaction was simple. He wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and looked at Shangguan Xiaoxian meaningfully, very deliberately and affectionately, as if hiding thousands of words, and then said: "Do it!"
Just one sentence, two short words, but they have the magical power to eliminate murderous intent.
All the people who had originally joined forces to fight the enemy withdrew and became wary of and alert to each other.
Only Fu Hongxue remained silent, because he did not belong to any faction. He just looked at Li Muchan deeply, then turned around and left with the Bai family's magic sword on his back.
He had long since stopped caring about the grudges and hatreds of this world, but today's battle had made him see the shortcomings of his own swordsmanship.
There is no one who is truly invincible in this world, and everyone fails sometimes.
But it was only a moment before the people from the "Golden Money Gang" and the "Green Dragon Society" all reacted at the same time, and the cold murderous intent seemed to have woven a big net, covering Li Muchan.
Li Muchan shrank his shoulders, and the hairs on the back of his neck stood up.
“You guys!”
He was not in a hurry. He chuckled and sighed, then picked up the old lama's headless body. He looked at Shangguan Xiaoxian silently, and then shot to the top of the mountain like an arrow.
Shangguan Xiaoxian did not stop him. She quietly looked at Li Muchan's back. The tenderness in her eyes faded as he walked away, and finally disappeared.
But she suddenly laughed again, wantonly, unruly and conceited, revealing her heroic spirit. Her eyes were as cold as a frost blade, and she said quietly, "Pass the order down, set fire to the mountain, and order the gang members to launch a general attack after daybreak, leaving no one behind."
※※※
Inside the Zen temple on the top of the mountain, the atmosphere was somewhat depressing and something was very wrong.
A group of demons are besieging the Goddess of Bliss and the evil spirits of the Thirty-Six Caves. Tieyan and Miao Shaotian are no exception. The situation is at a stalemate, the quarrels are getting more and more intense, and the situation is tense.
There are too many people.
The Goddess of Bliss gave a bitter smile and looked around, only to see a dark mass outside the Zen temple, all of them were demons from the Demon Cult. There were at least two thousand of them, if not three thousand. Some were covered in blood, some were wounded, some were glaring, and some had murderous intent on their faces.
Looking at the demons approaching step by step, she began to regret coming here.
If these people attacked her in groups, no matter how skilled she was or how good her martial arts skills were, she would probably be killed on the spot in an instant, hacked to death by the swords.
She had also thought about how she would take revenge if Li Muchan treated her as an abandoned pawn.
"What are you arguing about?"
At this moment, a clear and gentle voice suddenly sounded from behind everyone.
Everyone was shocked and turned their heads, only to see Li Muchan walking in carrying a thin, dry, headless corpse.
The demons subconsciously parted like a tide and made way, but when they saw the corpse in the hands of the man in front of them, they were suddenly in an uproar and their expressions changed drastically.
"Ah, Great Elder, it's the Great Elder."
"The Great Elder is dead."
"You traitor."
※※※
Duoqingzi gnashed his teeth and said, "How dare you come back?"
Li Muchan looked back at the pairs of cold eyes and smiled faintly: "Why not? My people are still here, of course I can't leave."
He looked at the Blissful Goddess and said gently, "After all, it's not easy to get people to believe in you in this world. I finally found one, how dare I let them down?"
The Goddess of Bliss breathed a sigh of relief. She was really worried that Li Muchan would not come up, but fortunately this man did not disappoint her.
Li Muchan looked at Duoqingzi and said, "People like you probably don't care too much about the so-called master-disciple relationship, right? Are you interested in following me?"
Duoqingzi's face was very ugly. He sneered and said, "It's too early for you to be happy. The leader hasn't been defeated yet. When he returns victorious, it will be the day of your death."
Li Muchan pursed his lips and smiled faintly: "He has not lost now, but it is uncertain in the future. Once the Great Elder dies, the masters of several major forces will be free. Haha, even if he has three heads and six arms, he will die."
"Everyone, follow me down the mountain immediately to help the leader."
Duoqingzi turned around and walked out. In order to save his life and keep the hope of living, he didn't even want to pay attention to the traitor Li Muchan and waste time dealing with him.
Li Muchan sat down leisurely at the foot of the statue, and then whispered to Duoqingzi just before he left: "You can't go down this mountain."
Duoqingzi paused and turned around to ask, but unexpectedly someone outside came back quickly and said something that made everyone feel as if they were falling into an ice cave: "It's bad, the 'Money Gang' and the 'Green Dragon Society' have set fire to the mountain, and there are many ambushes at the bottom of the mountain."
Duoqingzi's face turned pale, and everyone else's faces also turned pale and bloodless.
Li Muchan faced Duoqingzi's miserable face and said calmly, "Now, let me tell you one more thing. You'd better pray that Qiu Xiaolou doesn't use the box I gave him, because there is a mechanism hidden in it. If you are not careful, I don't know if others will die, but he will definitely lose half his life."
Duoqingzi's eyes widened and he shouted, "I'll kill you first."
He was about to make a move, and all the members of the Demon Cult were also ready to attack, as if they were ready to cut the man in front of them into pieces to vent their hatred.
"Don't move," Li Muchan said slowly, feeling the terrifying murderous intent spreading in the hall, "I advise you not to move rashly. If I die, the spies in the dark will immediately inform you, and you don't have to kill them. They will come immediately after hearing the news, and they are eager to catch you all in one fell swoop."
Duoqingzi froze in place, and everyone was stunned.
The Goddess of Bliss was also a little nervous. After all, these demons had all kinds of strange methods and it was always difficult to guard against them.
Tieyan and the other man were already on edge, as if they were ready to fight a fierce battle and break out at any time.
King Miao and the group of evil spirits from the "Seventy-two Caves" under his command had turned pale.
Duoqingzi stared at Li Muchan and shouted angrily: "What good will this do for you? We are in trouble now. Without the Great Elder and the Leader, how can we fight against the Money Gang and the Azure Dragon Society?"
Although his face was filled with rage, his eyes were filled with panic, fear of the unknown possibility of life and death.
"Haha," Li Muchan took a deep breath, then smiled and said with a dark look in his eyes, "This is not easy. If they fall, I can just command the demons."
Everyone's breath was held in place, filled with shock and horror.
Duoqingzi laughed strangely and said, "I think you are really crazy. You only have half your life left, and you dare to covet the position of leader?"
Li Muchan gathered his sleeves and said disapprovingly: "Your half life is just half a life, but my half life is worth more than the lives of thousands of heroes in the martial arts world. Besides, I don't want the position of leader."
Duoqingzi suddenly felt a chill running down his bones, because he discovered that some disciples of the Demon Sect had begun to look at him without him noticing, and their auras had also turned and pointed towards him. The situation began to change.
Compared to the hopeless dead end, Li Muchan seemed to have a great chance of rescuing them.
And who is this person? He is the world-famous Ghost Prince. Despite his evil and bad reputation, his methods are surprisingly clever and his wisdom is extraordinary.
Therefore, these people changed their minds in an instant. Not only would they not kill Li Muchan, but on the contrary they would serve him and follow his lead.
This is a situation forced by the general trend, a situation between life and death, which can be conquered without losing a single soldier or bloodshed.
Moreover, these people will never join the forces down the mountain. After the bloody battle and the killing of so many people, who can tolerate them? Even if the boss is willing, the brothers under him will not accept it, and they will have to settle accounts sooner or later.
Gradually, everyone looked at Li Muchan, as if waiting to see how he would break the impasse.
Li Muchan just smiled softly and said slowly: "Send the signal!"
At the command, in the darkness that was about to dawn but not yet dark, a spark, with a sharp whistle and a brilliant tail of fire, went straight up into the sky amidst pairs of astonished eyes and burst into life.
Fireworks burned the sky, and the murderous intent between heaven and earth became more intense.
