By the time Lu Qingshan arrived at Yanglou Town, the battle below was nearing its end. The ground was covered in blood and broken walls, as well as many incomplete corpses.
There were corpses of Genesis Demons, but most of them were corpses of mortals.
Ji Chuan, one man and one sword, was able to quell the chaos in a short period of time.
A woman was sobbing softly as she hugged the corpse of her child. More people were kneeling on the ground, thanking Ji Chuan profusely for saving them and kowtowing to express their gratitude.
Lu Qingshan slowly descended on his sword.
Ji Chuan's expression was somewhat gloomy. "The leader of the Genesis Demons that attacked Yanglou Town was only at the intermediate fourth grade. It's not worth mentioning to me, but it's a disaster for these small families.
I can still deal with a single attack, but I'm afraid it'll all erupt at once. It'll be difficult to deal with both sides. "
Lu Qingshan was about to say something when his gaze suddenly turned cold. He saw a figure hiding behind the crowd from the corner of his eye.
It was a middle-aged man with a very tall and sturdy figure. His face looked very familiar, but also very unfamiliar.
This kind of extremely contradictory feeling mixed together caused Lu Qingshan to be stunned for a moment.
Soon after, the reaction of a cultivator that far exceeded that of an ordinary person finally made Lu Qingshan recall.
Wasn't this figure the one Qiu Shiyin had described to them back then? The one she had seen in the Qiu family's Genesis Orchid mine, the one with the appearance of the Hades demon cultivator?
No wonder he looked so unfamiliar. After all, it was the first time they had met. No wonder he looked so familiar. His appearance was exactly the same as Qiu Shiyin's description, without the slightest discrepancy.
At this moment, Lu Qingshan didn't hesitate at all. He waved his sleeve and stretched out his hand.
Sword light flashed.
The Peach Blossom Sword was like a nimble fish, rumbling with rolling thunder. It instantly swam out, the sword light's momentum surging violently like a tide!
When it erupted, it was as if the sky was falling and the earth was splitting.
The middle-aged man in the crowd didn't panic at all when he saw Lu Qingshan suddenly erupt. A strange light even flashed in his eyes.
"Have you finally discovered it?"
The sword light formed by Lu Qingshan's flying sword was incomparably terrifying. In an instant, it arrived in front of the Devil Cultivator with Hades's face. It was as if the sky was collapsing, causing people to feel a chill in their hearts.
The middle-aged man was already prepared. Immediately, dense demonic runes appeared on the surface of his body to protect him.
Boom!
The sword light was extremely ferocious. A cold light flashed between the tip of the sword and the demonic runes on the demonic cultivator's body. An unparalleled penetrative intent appeared and instantly extinguished the rolling black light that had suddenly appeared on the surface of the demonic cultivator's body.
"Although he can't compare to Ji Chuan, his power is indeed extraordinary. He is most likely an early Nascent Soul cultivator." Once the middle-aged man sensed the terrifying attack from the flying sword, he immediately made a judgment that he believed to be rather accurate about Lu Qingshan, who had kept his presence hidden all this while and whose exact cultivation level could not be seen.
Only a Nascent Soul cultivator would be able to wield such a powerful flying sword.
Rip!
Lu Qingshan immediately tore open a huge wound on his body.
However, what surprised him was that this flying sword, which had clearly caused him to feel a chill in his heart, didn't cause him much harm when it slashed across his body.
Was it just for show?
This thought subconsciously surfaced in the Hades cultivator's mind.
However, the situation in front of him left him with no time to think about it.
Lu Qingshan's peach blossom drew an arc in the air. In an instant, its power returned to its peak state and rushed toward him.
The Hades cultivator only sneered at the sight and formed a seal with his hands.
With a bang, his entire body scattered and exploded into a cloud of demonic qi. Then, this cloud of demonic qi transformed into countless hideous bats that scattered in all directions.
Seeing this, Lu Qingshan's expression turned grave. "Blood Demon Bloodline."
The divine ability that the Hades cultivator displayed was a divine ability that belonged to the Blood Demon Clan — Blood Demon Incarnation!
Unless all the bats were killed, he could use one of the bat incarnations to restore his physical body. This was the most difficult escape method for Demons.
Ji Chuan was originally a little confused, but when he saw the Hades cultivator transform into countless bats, he immediately understood.
It was as if the sky was falling and the earth was splitting!
A ray of sword light rose from Ji Chuan's sleeve. Its power was many times more ferocious than Lu Qingshan's flying sword.
Puff! Puff!
Puff! In an instant, the flying sword was like a giant python that pierced through hundreds of bat incarnations in succession.
However, the Hades cultivator was no ordinary person. He transformed into nearly a thousand bats.
In an instant, he couldn't destroy them all. These bats scattered in all directions at an extremely fast speed. If there were only a few of them, it would be fine. However, with so many Blood Demon Incarnations scattering in different directions, Ji Chuan didn't know which direction to pursue.
"Damn it!" Ji Chuan growled. With a thought, he changed his sword intent. His green waist instantly transformed into a ball of flaming sword light and attacked the hundreds of bat incarnations that were fleeing in the west.
Puff! Puff!
Another few dozen bat incarnations were burned to ashes by this sword and fell from the sky.
Ji Chuan leaped up.
"Senior Apprentice Brother, wait." Lu Qingshan stopped Ji Chuan, who was about to give chase.
Ji Chuan didn't understand. "What's the meaning of this?"
Lu Qingshan smiled and said mysteriously, "When I attacked just now, I set up a little trick on the Hades cultivator. He won't be able to escape."
"A little trick?" Ji Chuan was stunned.
.....
On the other side, it was the same place where Yin Qi lingered.
"Ya ya ya!"
A series of dry and hoarse cries rang out. Hundreds of black shadows flew in from the sky and flew into this place.
Upon closer inspection, one would discover that these black shadows were actually extremely ugly bats.
These bats gathered together. Billowing Devil Qi surged out and enveloped all of them.
A moment later, all of the bats disappeared. In their place was a cultivator with a slightly pale face.
"Hei Luo, what's the situation?" A grey-robed man appeared from the shadows.
"This Ji Chuan's methods are indeed extraordinary. I'm a Void Refinement cultivator while he's a Nascent Soul cultivator. But he managed to destroy more than three hundred of my nine hundred and ninety-nine blood devil incarnations with just two sword strikes." Hei Luo still had lingering fear and pain in his heart.
Refining blood devil incarnations wasn't an easy task. It consumed a lot of energy. The sacrifice of these three hundred blood devil incarnations was equivalent to the destruction of his decades of hard work.
After catching his breath, Hei Luo's expression turned serious. He said respectfully, "Hallmaster Nine Serenities, I intentionally revealed my true form in Yanglou Town and managed to escape from Ji Chuan.
Prince Yuanyao is only a few hundred kilometers away from Yanglou Town. If Ji Chuan is unwilling to lose track of me, he'll use Yanglou Town as the center and carefully search the area. He'll definitely discover Prince Yuanyao within two or three days. At that time … "
Hallmaster Nine Serenities nodded in satisfaction. However, he wouldn't be complacent before the matter was settled. "Then let's wait for the situation to develop. By the way, how's the situation with the Extraditor?"
Upon hearing Hallmaster Nine Serenities mention the Extraditor's name, a sinister look appeared on Hei Luo's face. He said coldly, "Ever since Yuanyao attacked the Qiu Family, the Extraditor hasn't been sending us any messages.
Hallmaster, the Extraditor wasn't very willing to join the Hades. Now that she's acting like this, could it be that she's thinking of betraying us? Do you want me to warn her? "
Hallmaster Nine Serenities pondered for a moment. After a moment of silence, he said, "At this juncture, it's best not to complicate matters.
Let's settle the score with the Extraditor later. Besides, if it weren't for the Extraditor, we wouldn't have been able to contact Prince Yuanyao. "
At this point, a hint of cruelty flashed across Hallmaster Nine Serenities' eyes.
"Understood," Hei Luo said respectfully.
"Next, let's wait for the show to begin …" Hallmaster Nine Serenities said with a sinister smile.
