"Monster!" "Run!" "The monster is coming!"
Amidst the screams, the crowd fled in all directions, and the bustling street immediately became very deserted.
Only a five-year-old child was left sitting in the middle of the road, crying loudly. Countless pairs of eyes peeked out from both sides of the road and the cracks of the doors and windows. Their hearts trembled as they watched the monster walk towards the child. They all felt that the child was doomed.
Imagining the cruel scene that was about to happen, many people couldn't help but close their eyes.
Inside the building, the cultivators were also watching this scene through the Watermirror disc. It was too late for them to help.
The child raised his head and looked at the figure striding over. He was so frightened that he stopped crying. Usually, whenever he was disobedient, his mother would tell him to let the monster eat him. The horror of monsters was deeply engraved in his young heart. At this moment, there was only one thought left in his heart, "I'm really going to be eaten by a monster!"
"Little brat, you're blocking the way of Master North Moon. Get lost!" Li Qingshan bared his teeth. The child shuddered and scrambled to the side of the road. When he heard the hearty laughter coming from behind him, he couldn't help but turn around, but the figure had already gone far away. His scarlet hair fluttered in the wind like a cluster of flickering flames.
He felt that demons were not as scary as his mother had described them to be.
Inside the building, the Foundation Establishment cultivators were slightly startled. He actually did not make a move? He must have viewed mortals as ants and disdained to make a move! However, if he was disdainful, why did he say such a thing?
The terror of the Moon Devil was deeply rooted in their hearts because the Moon Devil had killed a large number of Foundation Establishment cultivators. He was the existence that posed the greatest threat to them.
Liu Changqing was relieved. It seemed that the Moon Devil had no intention of massacring the entire city. On second thought, he recalled that the Moon Devil had never been like the Stone Demons and Blood Demons, who enjoyed massacring mortals. Even to the Hundred Schools of Thought. They did not offend anyone.
Wang Pushi recalled that he had only killed the Lone Grave Elder and the Golden Pheasant Elder on the Green Vine mountain in the past. He spared the fleeing disciples of the Green Vine mountain. He was not a daemon that slaughtered indiscriminately.
"So all he's done is... They're only targeting Fu Qingjin and the Demon Slayer. This is the most natural counterattack and revenge! "
This thought spun in everyone's mind. They suddenly felt that the Moon Devil wasn't that hateful. If it wasn't for the Demon Slayer being so overbearing, the situation wouldn't have deteriorated to this stage.
Fu Qingjin pondered, "North Moon, oh North Moon, you are indeed different from ordinary monsters!"
Qiu Haitang's light pink lips curled into a smile. There was a comfortable feeling of meeting an old friend again. Her feeling was not wrong. Under his terrifying reputation, there was no one who would dare to challenge him. He had a simple and passionate heart. It made people feel that they could get close to him and see him barging into the tiger's den. She couldn't help but worry for him.
Ru Xin felt that the blank expression on the Moon Devil's face was somewhat familiar. Then she looked at Li Qingshan beside her. He furrowed his brows slightly and was stern.
Li Qingshan gradually broke free from the influence of the Water of Oblivion, and his mirror clone naturally returned to his senses at the same time.
The Watermirror's Image was a reflection of the main body. No matter what Li Qingshan's main body was affected, it would be reflected on his clone.
When he raised his head, the building was right before him.
Li Qingshan slapped his head and thought, Since I've already resolved the situation, why would I still send my clone here?
He wanted to turn around and leave, but it was already too late. He currently stood at a crossroads. Figures walked over from the streets around him. Hateful gazes gazed down from the tall buildings in the surroundings.
Basically all the Foundation Establishment cultivators of the Clear River prefecture were here, surrounding him.
Li Qingshan was obviously among them. He stared at the Moon Devil coldly without any fear on his face. It was as if he could call out at any time, "Moon Devil, die!" He would charge down and fight this daemon who had shaken up the prefecture to the death.
The Moon Devil faced a hundred alone, but he was fearless. His murderousness surged into the air, lingering above the prefecture and making everyone nervous.
The formation activated, and a barrier of light enveloped the building, protecting the Qi Practitioners inside. The light distorted the colour of the sky, enveloping the entire prefecture.
The Qi Practitioners in the building all stopped worrying. Some Qi Practitioners became excited, standing at the windows and roaring through the formation, "The Moon Devil is already trapped. He's dead for sure now." "Kill this wretched daemon and avenge him!"
Most of the Qi Practitioners only gazed at this legendary, terrifying daemon silently. So this is the Moon Devil! They looked down on the roaring Qi Practitioners. "Go out and roar if you can!"
The Foundation Establishment cultivators all frowned in thought. Why had the Moon Devil come? Where were the night roamers? They believed that the Moon Devil would never be stupid enough to walk right into a trap. Little did they know that the Moon Devil had drunk too much, even though it was not alcohol that he drank!
"Hahahahaha!" A burst of wild laughter filled the air. Li Qingshan stood with his hands on his hips, rocking back and forth with laughter. Even his teeth were visible.
Although he had made a slight mistake in this matter, he would only lose a clone at most. It was nothing special.
There were many great cloning techniques in the world. Clones were extremely nimble and could share the strength of the original body. However, as soon as the clone was injured, the original body would be affected as well. As a matter of fact, clones would develop self-awareness and break away from the original body.
However, Li Qingshan's Watermirror's Image did not have to worry about this at all. Even if he shattered the Watermirror's Image, he would not be able to harm the actual flower or moon at all.
The flower would not move, the moon would not move, and the image would not change either. Although it would be a little troublesome when he controlled it. However, after reaching the fourth layer of the Spirit Turtle's Method of Sea Suppression, his mind had reached a state of intricacy, so he had basically dealt with this problem.
Not only did the laughter stop the Qi Practitioners' clamour, but it also made the Foundation Establishment cultivators even more afraid of acting recklessly. If he did not have something to rely on, why would the Moon Devil be bold enough to do something like this?
Ru Xin stood close to Li Qingshan. She also revealed a rare expression of seriousness. However, she said secretly, Is there something wrong with this Moon Devil's mind?
You're the one with something wrong with your mind! Your entire family has something wrong with their minds!
Li Qingshan raised an eyebrow and said seriously, "Women can't understand it. This Moon Devil has a wild, forceful sense of heroism. Even if we're enemies, we can't help but praise him!"
"Is that so? I don't feel anything! "Ru Xin rubbed her chin and studied the Moon Devil again. Li Qingshan's face heated up slightly.
The Moon Devil's laughter suddenly stopped. He said sternly, "Fu Qingjin, I'm bold enough to come, but you're not bold enough to see me?"
When all the Foundation Establishment cultivators had appeared, Fu Qingjin was nowhere to be seen.
With a flash of green light, Fu Qingjin appeared behind the Moon Devil. He stood to the side. "It's just a clone. Is there anything worth me coming to see? North Moon, if you have anything to say, feel free to say it! "
Li Qingshan did not look back at Fu Qingjin. He thought hard about what he should say. Surely he could not say, "I'm just passing by. I actually have nothing to do here, so just go about your business."
Then he heard Ru Xin's disdainful voice. "What sense of heroism? If I had a clone, I'd be bold enough to do that too." It made Li Qingshan so angry that he was tempted to directly transform into his original form, capture this bastard, and give her a good spanking.
His heart skipped a beat. Perhaps, this was an opportunity!
The moon demon said, "Fu Qingjin, I heard a long time ago that you wanted to fight to the death with me. Why have I waited for so long, but there's still nothing at all? As it turns out, you've been studying schemes and traps with these people again. How boring."
"Where's your original form? I'll fight you right now." Fu Qingjin stood with his hand on his sword. His eyes were cold. There was no longer a trace of dispiritedness in them. He was like an unsheathed sword.
"A chaotic battle? Or wantonly kill the weak ones of the enemy? That's too boring. I only want to kill you. I only want to destroy you Demon Slayer! "
"As expected!" Liu Changqing thought, "If only all demons were as reasonable as this Moon Devil."
The Moon Devil said, "3rd of March, Boundless Mountains. Only you and me. Let's fight to the death!"
Everyone looked at each other. The battle was clearly imminent, but the Moon Devil sent a clone to challenge them. This timing was a little too strange.
"What about this battle?" Fu Qingjin caressed the hilt of his sword. He savored the meaning in the words of the North Moon.
"You and I don't need to participate. We don't want to spoil the mood of the battle."
Li Qingshan finally revealed his true intention. He wanted to avoid this battle!
Because he had to participate in the battle as Li Qingshan. The "North Moon" would not be able to fight. Although the clone had the effect of passing off the fake as the real one, he would be exposed the moment he attacked. He would definitely not be a match for Fu Qingjin.
This situation was very disadvantageous to him. That was why he came up with this idea. He used the challenge to force Fu Qingjin not to fight. He also had an excuse to appease the Spider Queen. It was the best of both worlds.
"What about the clone?" Fu Qingjin asked.
"Naturally, I won't participate."
"Very well, I agree!" Fu Qingjin said resolutely, but he had his own plans.
The Moon Devil posed a great threat, not only because of his personal strength, but also because of the night roamers he led. Without the Moon Devil as their commander, it was very likely for the night roamers to fall into a state of disunity. It would be of great benefit to them, and it could even directly influence the outcome of the battle.
After coming to an agreement like that, Fu Qingjin seemed extremely magnanimous. He made Liu Changqing open the formations and let the Moon Devil's clone leave.
Li Qingshan snickered. Actually, I still have to participate in this battle!
"Fellow Fu, don't tell me this is a trick of the daemons?"
The cultivators returned to the tower, and Liu Changqing asked in worry.
"Please use the Qi Observation technique to monitor the movements of the entire Clear River prefecture, sir Liu. I'll watch over the tower. As soon as he appears, I'll immediately enter battle."
Fu Qingjin sank into his thoughts. He could not fight, but he could give a few talismans and pills to the Demon Slayer cultivators he trusted. They came from the Sword Collection palace, and they were extremely powerful. They would definitely be able to heavily injure daemons.
Li Qingshan's clone returned to the dwelling. All the matriarchs had already been gathered, ready to set off.
"The humans have already learnt about the Spider Queen's orders. They're currently making preparations in the Clear River prefecture. This battle definitely won't be as easy as last time."
Li Qingshan's words surprised everyone. Before they could digest this news, he continued, "I won't be participating in this battle! Everything will be under Ye Liusu's command. Her orders are my orders! "
