Chao Tianjiao had her reasons. Ever since she joined the army, she had been through thousands of battles. She had personally killed more than two or three hundred thousand demonfolk. She only mocked Li Qingshan for not having experienced this, which was why he was so careful.
It had to be mentioned that even when the battle was at its most intense, there were only a handful of Demon Emperors in Coldblood Pass. They could not take down Black Cloud city, and it would be pointless even if there were more. It would instead drag down the other battles.
Now that she had Li Qingshan's yin spirit to fend off the laws of the Demon domain, she had one less major problem to worry about. She had infiltrated silently again. Even if there were a handful of Demon Emperors, she was confident she could escape.
Chao Tianjiao climbed up the pass silently. As far as the eye could see, it was still ruins, exactly the same as the illusion Li Qingshan had demonstrated back then.
Li Qingshan felt that something was amiss. He tried to persuade her again, "You said you wanted to take a look. You've already taken a look now, so you can go back!"
"Cut the nonsense." Chao Tianjiao was as light as a feather, drifting into the pass.
Li Qingshan choked. He felt suffocated. Since he could not persuade her, he could only let her be, just in case he humiliated himself.
"God dammit, even good advice can't persuade a damned ghost!"
As soon as Chao Tianjiao landed on the ground, she stepped on a red thread that had appeared out of thin air.
The red thread was as red as blood. It was not tangible, but it trembled slightly.
Immediately, thousands of red threads appeared in the air, criss-crossing with one another and affecting the entire pass.
Rumble! The ruins shook, and twelve stone pillars rose up from the ground. Every single pillar was engraved with the totem of a Demon God.
Twelve Demon Emperors stood on the top of the twelve totem pillars, either sneering viciously or emotionlessly as they gazed at Chao Tianjiao in the formation.
Surging demon qi blanketed the surroundings, filling up the pass.
Li Qingshan had seen those red threads not long ago. They were the spirit threads that formed the formation, and he had actually seen this formation before. "Twelve Citadel Demon Formation of the Evil!"
Chao Tianjiao gritted her teeth and roared in her heart, "Li Qingshan, how dare you say you're not a spy!"
"I'll f * ck your mother!" Li Qingshan was also angry. "I've tried to persuade you again and again, but you didn't listen. Now you're blaming it on me? Come, come, let's see how you're going to survive! "
He was ambushed, and there was a strong enemy outside. With disloyalty in his heart, the situation was extremely critical.
With a clang, Chao Tianjiao unsheathed her saber. In an instant, she had regained her composure. Recalling Li Qingshan's various performances, how could there be such an arrogant spy in the world? Frankly speaking, he said, "I have wronged you. If you are not a spy, then accompany me to the death in battle!"
Seeing her so generous, Li Qingshan was momentarily speechless. He was too embarrassed to say, "Even if you die, I won't!"
Finally, he let out a long sigh. "Sigh, why did you have to come?!"
Chao Tianjiao said, "I had an important mission, so I had to come. I ended up dragging you into this. The twelve Demon Emperors are gathered here. It's definitely not just to ambush me. They must be plotting against Black Cloud City. My extinguishing life lamp can be considered a warning to the sect. "
"Bitch, do you still recognize me?" Tu Wancheng let out a sinister laugh, feeling extremely gratified.
"Tu Wancheng, my saber didn't kill you. Do you dare fight me again?!"
Chao Tianjiao pointed her saber at Tu Wancheng. Trapped in the Twelve Citadel Demon Formation of the Evil, he was already in a hopeless situation. If he could kill a Demon Emperor, he might still have a chance of survival. At the very least, he would be able to drag someone down with him.
His sharp edge was revealed, and his murderous intent surged. Tu Wancheng's face contorted. That saber strike had truly left a lingering fear in his heart.
The other Demon Emperors seemed to be watching the show, not in a hurry to make a move.
Naturally, Tu Wancheng wouldn't fall for it. He was just about to use vulgar words to humiliate Chao Tianjiao.
An elderly Demon Emperor waved his hand, and Tu Wancheng immediately shut up.
The elderly said earnestly, "Fellow Daoist Chao, if you are willing to convert to the Demon Realm. There's still a way out. Not only will you become a Demon Emperor and be on equal footing with us, but if you can help us conquer Black Cloud City, it will be a great merit. Not only will you be blessed by heaven, but you will also be rewarded by the supreme gods. You might even be able to overcome the sixth heavenly tribulation and reach the Demigod Realm. "
The elderly's voice was hoarse and deep, but it had a strange charm that penetrated the eardrums and reached the bottom of the heart. He was even more amiable than Abbot Yangon, making people have no choice but to believe him.
Li Qingshan and Chao Tianjiao immediately understood. As it turned out, that was what they were planning!
Even if the twelve Demon Emperors worked together, they would struggle to destroy the Black Cloud Roar of Thunder Formation, let alone the fact that there was a teleportation formation connected to the Myriad sect. They could summon over ten true disciples to assist them at any time.
If the first senior sister, Chao Tianjiao, acted as a mole, destroying these two formations would be a piece of cake. If the twelve Demon Emperors used this opportunity to strike, even an army of a million would be at their mercy.
Li Qingshan sneered, "Karma really is a cycle of karma and retribution! You said I'm a spy from the Demon Realm. Now it's your turn. "He did his best to block the demonic voice for her.
Chao Tianjiao's mind cleared up. She was not annoyed by him. Instead, she found it strange. "Even at a time like this, he's still in the mood to joke around. How bold of him."
She did not wholeheartedly want to die here. She acted like she was in thought and said to the old man, "I understand demonfolk very well. They'll go back on their word even if there's no benefit to them. How can I trust you?"
The old man laughed aloud. "Do you think I'm one of those idiots, fellow? If you don't believe me, I can swear a blood oath on the Nether River. "
Chao Tianjiao sighed pretentiously. "The sect has shown me great kindness, so how can I go back on my word?"
Li Qingshan thought, This woman sure isn't simple-minded. She even knows how to stall for time. It's just a pity that her acting skills are far too exaggerated.
If the path they took was to throw their lives away regardless of the consequences when they encountered danger, they would have lost a hundred lives. How could they have made it to where they were today?
The old man did not seem to see through Chao Tianjiao's attempt to stall for time. He shook his head with a smile. "You're mistaken, fellow!"
Li Qingshan was stunned. "Is this old man really not a monk in disguise?"
"Then I'd like to ask, how am I mistaken?" Chao Tianjiao sheathed her blade and listened quietly.
"People of my generation have separated themselves from the world for the sake of pursuing the great path. The sect has shown you kindness, and you've shown kindness to the sect, so we don't owe each other anything. And, compared to the great path, why should we care about these small details? "
"You're right, fellow. I'll consider it."
Chao Tianjiao lowered her head and said to Li Qingshan, "Cut the bullshit, kid. I know you're full of devious ideas. Hurry up and think of something!"
"What ideas do I have? Why don't I just surrender?"
"If I surrender, I'll kill you first!" Chao Tianjiao's expression fluctuated as if she was waging a war. Her acting skills did become much more realistic.
At the same time, the Demon Kings conversed with one another.
"Sir Yingzhe, will this woman really submit?"
"Of course not," the old man replied indifferently.
Tu Wancheng said impatiently, "Then why waste your breath on her? Why don't we …"
"If she dies and her life lamp extinguishes, the Myriad Nature Sect will be on guard. Will you take responsibility?"
Tu Wancheng did not dare to say anything else. The old man continued patiently, "That's why we have to leave her a chance to live. Don't let her think about fighting to the death. She won't submit now, but that doesn't mean she won't submit in the future. Hehe. "
The Demon Kings were all arrogant and stubborn. Their strength was not much weaker than this old man's, so they did not have any thoughts of rebelling.
