Chapter 120 Senior Brother...
Chapter 120 Senior Brother...
The sky was covered with dark clouds, mixed with a dull red hue that sent a chill down one's spine.
A clap of thunder boomed in the distance, causing Li Sihai's hand holding the brush to tremble, leaving a large, glaring stain on the letter.
"I'll get a new one... I'll get a new one..." He trembled as he reached for the new paper, but the owner of the letter stopped him.
"No need... it's too late." The soldier was dark-skinned, and when he smiled, he revealed two rows of white teeth. He took out a small cloth bag from his pocket, which made a crisp sound when he shook it.
It was silver and copper coins.
The soldier shoved the bag into Li Sihai's hand: "Commander Qi has told the immortal that he will send you back to Fuyang City. When we win, you can deliver the letter there."
Li Sihai was somewhat lost in thought, holding a small bag of loose silver coins mixed with copper coins in his hands.
"I'm not going to do business at a loss with you people from all over the country," the middle-aged man muttered as he tried to return the money pouch, only to find that the soldier had already headed in Yan Chengxue's direction.
He dared not go forward, so he put the money bag into his pocket and put the letters into his bundle.
Yan Chengxue finished arranging the last batch of soldiers, and a light rain began to fall. The young man stood alone in the rain, looking at Li Sihai with a gentle expression.
Yan Chengxue raised her hand, and two talismans appeared in her palm. They floated lightly in the air, ignoring the rain, and finally stuck to Li Sihai's calf.
"Have you packed your things, sir?"
Li Sihai nodded quickly.
“Then you should head back now, sir.” Yan Chengxue smiled. “Please tell the garrison of Fuyang City that the demonic tide is coming and they must be prepared. As for those family letters, just give them to the garrison.”
Li Sihai nodded numbly. Suddenly, the thin middle-aged man seemed to have thought of something and took out the money bag from his pocket and stuffed it into Yan Chengxue's hand.
"This money... please take it, Immortal Master."
Yan Chengxue did not accept the things offered by the middle-aged man.
"This is what they gave you."
"For me?"
"It's payment for writing letters home, no need to return it." The young man conjured white magical light in his hand.
The talisman affixed to the inside of Li Sihai's calf began to slowly light up.
"This is a speed talisman, which can travel a thousand miles a day. If you set off from here, you can reach Fuyang City in an hour."
"Goodbye, Mr. Li."
Another ferocious bolt of lightning struck the sky. In a secluded ravine in Shadow Mountain, the dark sky was forcibly torn open, and the surrounding space distorted, appearing somewhat unreal.
Upon seeing this scene, a mountain eagle immediately flew towards the mountain where the mountain god temple was located.
The mountain eagle relayed the information to the mountain god of Yingwu Mountain, and the hunched-over Chen An looked at the girl to the side.
Xue Lan had been resting with her eyes closed ever since she felt her body for a while. Now, the girl slowly opened her eyes, and Chen An dared not look into her captivating ice-blue eyes.
"Immortal Master, the demons are in a mountain valley in the southeast corner."
Xue Lan nodded slowly, the girl's voice calm, the red bead by her ear swaying slightly in the night.
"Xue Lan thanks the Mountain God. In the battle between immortals and demons, swords and spears have no eyes. Please, Mountain God, take the spirits of the mountain and leave as soon as possible."
Chen An bowed deeply to the girl in front of him, then left with peace of mind.
In his eyes, the serene and composed immortal before him was undoubtedly a powerful being at least in the late Nascent Soul stage. He was more than capable of dealing with this demonic tide.
The mountain god of Yingwu Mountain departed, and most of the animals in the mountain followed him. As night fell, only the pattering rain could be heard over the entire Yingwu Mountain in this rainy night.
Boundless and endless, it's irritating.
Xue Lan looked at the darkness behind her: "Senior, please wait a moment. Xue Lan will go and whet their appetite first."
The voice of Daoist Ziyun came from the boundless darkness behind Xue Lan: "Go ahead, and be careful in everything you do."
Upon hearing this, Xue Lan transformed into a streak of light that disappeared into the night and went directly to the mountain hollow where the crevice was located.
The girl stood in mid-air, looking at the nascent crack in front of her. A huge demonic claw was reaching out from the crack, trying to use its own power to open it up even wider.
Xue Lan sneered and secretly transmitted her voice to Yan Chengxue: "They're here."
Yan Chengxue's voice was cold yet tinged with excitement: "Understood."
The boy turned around, and several puppet threads flew out from his hand. The spiritual energy joints on the Myriad Manifestations Array were opened one by one. The soldiers guarding various positions saw the array emit a yellowish-brown light, like a huge totem embedded in the earth.
The enormous totem lit up for only a moment before falling completely silent, like a lurking beast waiting for its prey.
Xue Lan looked at the huge crack in front of her. With the beast's claws working hard, the spacetime rift that was originally just a thin crack began to slowly expand and eventually became an elliptical passage.
Within Xue Lan's sea of consciousness, a woman dressed in white arrived before the wooden door deep within that sea of consciousness.
Xue Lan sighed, "I should have left a bit of Xuan Shuo's demonic soul behind."
"But it doesn't matter. The inner demons of a fifteenth-realm demon lord can also lure these beasts into a trap."
The woman raised her hand and placed it on the wooden door, from which a thick, dark demonic aura flew out, accompanied by a strange, cacophony laugh.
"They are demons, but you look more like one!"
Xue Lan's voice was cold and ruthless: "Get to work."
The thick, dark demonic energy flew out of Xue Lan's body and went straight into the spacetime rift.
There was a moment of silence, just a brief instant.
A moment later, a furious roar came from the crack, and the huge beast claws frantically tore the crack open, revealing a body with two heads.
"Demons are really ugly!" the girl sighed softly, letting the thick black demonic energy lead her toward the direction of the mindless demonic beast Jiangyun Valley.
Xue Lan's figure transformed into a faint phantom.
Xue Lan didn't care about the demonic beasts leading the charge; what she cared about most were the demons bringing up the rear.
The girl flew into the rift in time and space, intending to find her lost body. She then sealed the rift in the desolate region.
While we're at it, let's teach the person who's manipulating her body a lesson about the art of time and space.
In the desolate wilderness, Ji Gu watched the demon army slowly walk into the spatial rift before him, a smug smile creeping onto his face. He glanced at Ji Yan behind him.
"Ayan, go and see with Third Brother how our Demon Army crushes the Crimson Cloud Sect and how we devour that weak human race."
Ji Yan felt a little uneasy. He smiled awkwardly and said, "Third Brother, it's no problem for the frontline army to take Fuyang City. In my opinion, Luoxia Mountain is more troublesome."
Ji Gu looked at his younger brother and gave him a strange smile: "Ayan is so thoughtful."
Ji Yan clapped his hands as he looked at Ji Gu: "It's alright, Third Brother won't go there by himself."
Ji Yan saw a tall figure walk up behind Ji Gu. It was the demon in his hand.
The demon had no consciousness of its own. It slowly walked toward the crack in front of it, like an old machine, but stopped just before stepping inside.
Xue Lan flew out of the space-time rift in reverse, and the tortoise shell that was originally in her sleeve suddenly began to get slightly hot.
Looking at the tall figure in front of her, she felt as if her heart had stopped beating.
It's Gong Yuan, Senior Brother Gong Yuan from Suandao Peak!
Xue Lan knew Gong Yuan wasn't dead, but she never expected...
Gong Yuan's current appearance is that of a complete human demon.
The demonic soul that had vanished into the void confronted the human demon before him. Xue Lan saw the human demon slowly raise his hand, a gentle smile appearing on his lips.
It seems he was always smiling when he was calculating the peak:
"Junior Sister Xue, you've come to see me again?"
A sharp pain shot through Xue Lan's heart. She thought of her uncle, whose hair had turned white overnight, and of the handsome and adorable Zeng Xiaoshan.
No one around noticed Xue Lan's arrival. Gong Yuan brushed past Xue Lan and prepared to step into the crevice.
Xue Lan slowly and stiffly turned her head. If Gong Yuan entered the rift, she would personally seal him inside...
"Senior brother..." Xue Lan began, but no sound came out.
In a moment of heartache, the mighty Wolf King made his final decision, watching helplessly as Gong Yuan stepped one foot into the crevice.
"and many more!"
A male voice came from behind me.
Xue Lan looked toward the source of the sound, where an old man in black robes stood behind Ji Yan.
