"That's right. I didn't expect Xuan Yi Wanderer to be in this mountain temple. Perhaps Liu Suiyun had an agreement with him. However, with our gang leader and the Divine Empress around, we might be able to keep Xuan Yi Wanderer here, "the northwest man said proudly.
Shi Xuan originally did not know who the gang leader was, but he could roughly guess it now. To be able to be so confident in front of one of the Five Great Grandmasters, Qi Taichong, and even have the confidence to join forces with the Devil Queen to keep him here, he was naturally an expert of the Great Grandmaster level. And among experts of this level, the only one who could be called a gang leader was the leader of the Power and Money Gang, Iron Fist Li Chenfan.
Why did Shi Xuan dare to participate in the Demon Sect's matters? Wasn't he afraid that the Demon Sect had the support of the Immortal Sect? Previously, when Lao Dao Xu was searching for the Dao Sect, he had secretly and openly visited the Carefree Sect, which was known as the Righteous Sect and the Demon Sect. Unfortunately, there was still no news of the Dao Sect. He also wanted to check out the Demon Sect, but they were secretive and he couldn't find them. Therefore, Shi Xuan's initial destination was Mt. Tongxuan, Mt. Mang, and Luojing.
Based on this, the possibility of the Demon Sect having the support of the Immortal Sect was very small, even though it wasn't completely zero. How could it be possible to find the Dao Sect without taking any risks?!
"May I know your name? Can you bring I and Wan'er to the Divine Empress?" Shi Xuan was worried that it would be a waste of time if he took the wrong path, so he asked the northwest man to lead the way.
"I am Dong Liang of Gan Province. Please follow me, Taoist and Saintess. May I know how I should address you?" Dong Liang was naturally willing to lead the way for the Taoist. After all, the gang leader didn't only send him to gather subordinates, just in case.
"I's surname is Shi." Shi Xuan thought that he didn't need to give his full name since he was going there to do bad things. He pulled Wan'er along and followed Dong Liang to the Little Desolate Ridge.
Dong Liang wanted to invite Chu Wan'er to ride on his horse, but Chu Wan'er didn't appreciate it at all. She held onto Shi Xuan's hand tightly and refused to let go. Dong Liang had no choice but to lead the horse and lead the way.
Shi Xuan held Chu Wan 'er's hand and walked smoothly at first, but the more he walked, the tighter Chu Wan' er was pulling on him. He felt strange and turned his head to look. He couldn't help but laugh out loud. This girl had a bitter expression on her face. Her steps became smaller and smaller, and the distance between them grew larger and larger. No wonder he felt like she was pulling on him tighter and tighter. Looking at her, it seemed like she could turn around and run at any time.
Hearing Shi Xuan's laughter, Chu Wan'er frowned. "Master might beat you, Wan'er. She might not let Mother punish you for it."
"En, they might hit you with a big board, then tie you up and forbid you from eating for a few days. They might even make you walk on the cinder without shoes on …" The more Shi Xuan spoke, the redder Chu Wan 'er's eyes became. She practically moved her feet. "However, since Master is here, he naturally has to back you up. He won't let your mother punish you!"
"Really! Master, you're the best! " Chu Wan'er didn't react at first. When she heard that Shi Xuan would support her, she immediately cheered. "That's right. Master, you're so powerful. You must avenge Wan'er. Mother always bullies Wan'er."
Dong Liang heard Chu Wan'er's words and was shocked. 'Is this young Taoist really a senior expert who lives in seclusion in the Demon Sect? Otherwise, why would this little demoness say that she's more powerful than the Devil Empress? That's not right. Shouldn't the little demoness learn the Heavenly Demonic Power from the Devil Empress according to the Demon Sect's rules?'
"Master, you must punish my mother and make her walk without wearing shoes! Uh, I don't think my mother ever wears shoes … "Chu Wan 'er had just thought of a great idea, but she was ruthlessly crushed by reality.
Along the way, Chu Wan'er racked her brains. Every time she thought of an idea, she would reject it. Otherwise, she would immediately think of another better idea. In the end, she couldn't come up with a great idea on how to punish her mother.
Dong Liang handed the horses to the gang members at the foot of the mountain. At the same time, he ordered another subordinate to gather his men. He led Shi Xuan and Chu Wan'er up the mountain path.
The terrain of the small precipice was steep. Cliffs and precipices could be found everywhere. This mountain temple was backed by a precipice and faced a cliff. It was a place that was easy to defend and hard to attack.
Perhaps something had happened. The gang members of the Power and Money Gang in copper clothing had already begun to attack the mountain temple. However, because the path was too narrow, there were only seven or eight experts in front of the door.
Dong Liang went forward and pulled back a gang member at the back. He asked anxiously, "Why did they suddenly start attacking? We haven't even gathered our men. Did the Sacred Gate send people here?"
"No, no, the Sacred Gate still sent those few experts. Hall Master Dong, you don't know this. Previously, Black-Robed Wanderer saw a few of our experts coming down the mountain and wanted to take the opportunity to break out of the encirclement. It's a pity that he didn't know that the Saint Empress was here. He revealed a flaw and was defeated by the combined forces of the Sect Master and the Saint Empress. Furthermore, they took the opportunity to attack. Two Heavenly Kings and an expert from the Demon Sect also entered." Seeing that Dong Liang was one of his own, the gang member immediately explained the situation in detail.
When Shi Xuan heard that the situation inside was urgent, he didn't hide it anymore. He pulled Chu Wan'er with his left hand and cast the Golden Dragon Armor Incantation on her and himself. After that, he raised the Soul Confounding Banner with his right hand and waved it repeatedly. The gang members of the Power and Money Gang were caught off guard and were all knocked unconscious by the black light. Even the gang member who was talking to Dong Liang wasn't spared.
When Dong Liang saw Shi Xuan making a move, he was stunned. He thought to himself, 'What kind of demonic art is this? He can actually condense black light. As expected of a peerless expert from the Demon Sect. Wait a minute, why is he making a move against his own people?'
Before Dong Liang could finish his thoughts, he was knocked unconscious by Shi Xuan. Shi Xuan couldn't be bothered to take these people's lives. In any case, they would be knocked unconscious for a while. He pulled Chu Wan'er and walked towards the mountain temple. On the way, whenever a gang member of the Power and Money Gang pounced at them, a black light would shoot over and they would fall to the ground with a swoosh.
Inside the mountain temple, the Devil Empress Chu Yuyan, who was dressed in white and had a pair of snow-white feet, had a veil over her face. She walked in the mystical footwork of the Demonic Dance and attacked Qi Taichong, who was dressed in black and had a crown on his head. Her white veil drew beautiful arcs in the air, forming a small Demonic Field. It affected Qi Taichong's footwork and moves quite a bit. He had to put in more effort so that he wouldn't be led astray by the Demonic Field.
In front of Qi Taichong was a green-clothed man. He had a delicate and pretty appearance. His face had a faint look of tiredness and loneliness. However, he had a pair of firm fists. There were no tricks. It was just a simple punch, but it was like a rock breaking the heavens. It made Qi Taichong, who was filled with an ancient charm and had endless mysteries, change his moves to block.
However, Qi Taichong had been famous for decades. He definitely lived up to his reputation. Under the pincer attack of Li Chenfan and Chu Yuyan, he still used the sanshou that he was most familiar with to build a defensive circle. It was an impenetrable defense.
Li Chenfan and Chu Yuyan weren't in a hurry to attack. Under such an advantageous situation, it was best to wear Qi Taichong down first. Therefore, they only used 50-60% of their focus to attack. The rest of their focus was to defend the door and prevent Qi Taichong from escaping.
The White-clothed Young Master, Liu Suiyun, had suffered serious injuries in the previous pursuit. At this time, he could only bitterly hold on under the sword of the Sword King, Qu Hanshui. However, they didn't expect him to have a hidden weapon skill. He was always able to save the situation at the critical moment. For a short period of time, his life wasn't in danger.
Qu Hanshui's treasured sword had already been broken into two pieces and was lying on the ground. He held an inferior sword made of rough iron in his hand. His moves were also different from his previous exquisite and peerless state. They were big and bold, but didn't lose their exquisiteness. Gradually, he completely controlled the situation with his sword. Compared to when he was using the treasured sword just now, his performance was five times better.
The Saber King, Zhao Mingxi, was a middle-aged Confucian scholar. He looked relaxed on the surface. With a flash of the saber in his hand, he forced Du Yuhan, who was opposite him, to take a step back. He even had the mood to ridicule, "Young Hero Du, I didn't expect your martial arts to advance by leaps and bounds in such a short time. You've actually achieved the Acquired Great Heavenly Cycle. If it weren't for the fact that your realm hasn't been consolidated, you wouldn't be in such a difficult situation now. It was because I misjudged your strength that I let you break out of the encirclement. "
Du Yuhan waved the thin sword in his hand with all his might. The sword light was like a shuttle, and each strike was faster than the previous one. It also created a great danger for the Saber King, which was why the Saber King didn't quickly take down Du Yuhan. After all, when he had the upper hand, it was not wise for the Saber King to take down the enemy quickly even if he was seriously injured.
Meng Yuqiong and the two experts from the Xu Family fought together against the expert from the Demon Sect. This expert was still a woman. Her graceful figure was wrapped in a white veil, and her face was not covered, revealing a delicate face that was both happy and angry at the same time. Her every movement was like a beautiful dance, bringing with it a deep killing intent. Although Meng Yuqiong's cultivation was not as good as this expert from the Demon Sect, it wasn't too far off. The moves of the Yu Hua Sect's direct descendants all had mysterious trajectories. In addition, the two experts from the Xu Family were fighting with their lives on the line. Both sides were in a stalemate.
Some of the experts who followed them stood on the beam and fought with the experts on the roof, making it impossible for them to break in from the roof.
Xu Jinyi, Xu Tianqi, and a few other young heroes and heroines blocked the door, fighting with the people from the Power and Money Gang. Although they all had extraordinary martial arts, the people on the other side were not ordinary people. There were some famous people in the Jianghu. Since Xu Tianqi and the others started fighting, after killing a few people, they were forced to retreat again and again. If it wasn't for the fact that they had nowhere to run, some people would have already scattered like birds and beasts.
Liu Suiyun saw that the situation was gradually getting worse. She gritted her teeth, made a decision, and used her trump card. Qu Hanshui, who was on the opposite side, only felt his vision blur. The iron sword in his hand sank, and his hand started to feel numb. Then, he lost consciousness.
An iron flower was nailed to the wall behind Qu Hanshui. All the ants, bugs, and cockroaches within ten feet of the flower fell from the wall and fell to the ground, motionless. Although Qu Hanshui reacted quickly and blocked the iron flower with his iron sword, his hand holding the sword had become black and swollen. Fortunately, his internal force protected his heart spontaneously, so he just fainted. But if it dragged on for a while, he wouldn't be spared.
Liu Suiyun didn't have time to deal another blow. Seeing that the people of the Power and Money Gang at the door had gradually pressed into the mountain temple, and the door was empty behind him, he didn't have time to think and rushed to the mountain gate.
Xu Tianqi, Xu Jinyi, and the others had been pressed out of the door of the mountain temple. But neither they nor the attacking people of the Power and Money Gang noticed that there was no one behind them.
Knock, knock, knock! Knock, knock, knock! Knock, knock, knock!
Loud knocks sounded in the mountain temple three times in a row. The Jianghu masters who were fighting fiercely had to divert a bit of attention to look at the door.
A young Taoist in a plain Taoist robe stood at the door. In his right hand was a strange black banner that knocked on the door of the temple, and in his left hand was a cute little girl in white. Seeing that everyone was paying attention to this side, the young Taoist said with a smile, "Good morning, everyone. Hello."
