Chapter 441: The Great Sima in Front of the Demon Palace
Chapter 441: The Great Sima in Front of the Demon Palace
The three of them sneaked into the Demon City and had a very smooth journey. Not to mention soldiers, they didn’t even see any ordinary demons.
Every house in the city closed its doors, no lights were turned on and no sound was made. It was extremely gloomy and it felt like entering a ghost town.
If something is abnormal, it must be something wrong!
Now that’s bad. I had originally planned to sneak in in disguise, but now I can’t even see anyone. It looks like there’s no hope.
Just when Long Qi wondered whether the demons disliked light, Adao stopped them.
“It smells of blood…”
Bloody smell?
Long Qi sniffed around but smelled nothing.
This is natural. Adao is originally a wild beast, and he has the cultivation of a demon. How can his sense of smell be compared to that of ordinary people?
“It’s the palace!”
Yes, the source of the smell was indeed coming from the palace, but why?
Adao couldn’t figure it out, and suddenly became nervous.
“Master, is she… okay?”
Long Qi’s expression froze, and he lost all interest in playing. He looked at Chi Yanzi, who nodded, and the three of them hurried to the palace.
Before reaching the palace, one could hear waves of shouting and screaming, the constant clashing of weapons, and the occasional explosion of magic. From a distance, it sounded like the New Year’s Eve.
But why would the screams continue during the New Year?
The three of them didn’t understand what was going on, so they sneaked in and saw a group of Taoists blocked outside the palace gate, fighting with the demon soldiers.
This group of Taoists are extremely brave. They don’t look like the indifferent and ambitious practitioners at all. They are clearly killing gods on the battlefield, eager to earn some fame and honor.
Long Qi recognized Yuan Qing’s Taoist uniform at a glance, and there were other things that looked familiar, but he couldn’t remember where he had seen them for a while.
But it’s not important.
Originally, Long Qi thought it was Shoucheng and the others, but he didn’t expect to see Mu Cang piercing the demon soldier with a sword in the crowd.
As for Mu Cang, Long Qi only knew that he was the eldest disciple of Master Dong Hui, so he was not very familiar with him. After all, the eldest disciples of the elders were all very busy, so how could they have the time to deal with new disciples like them?
Long Qi suddenly felt a little indignant. He thought that after all, he, Long Qi, was the eldest disciple of Qingwei Peak and seemed to have the same status as Mu Cang and the others. Why had he never been in charge of any affairs?
But then I thought again, there is only a medicinal field and a thatched cottage on Qingwei Peak, not even a Taoist temple, so it seems that there is nothing that needs to be taken care of.
After all, he knew nothing about pharmacology or medicine, let alone alchemy. Even if he wanted to help, I was afraid Lingxiang would be worried, so he could only help repair the house.
When he thought of this, Long Qi’s face turned red and he actually felt embarrassed.
Seeing that Long Qi was still distracted at this time, Ah Dao couldn’t help but roll his eyes – what kind of suffering in the world made him recognize such a hottie…
Soon Adao fell into deep thought again.
It seems that the old Taoist of Yuanqing Sect has received the map, and it was worth it for him to sell himself to Yue Niang of Liuyunxuan.
At the beginning, when Lingxiang ordered Zhanli Adao to run around, it was not aimlessly, but to draw a map of the underworld. At that time, Lingxiang had already had the demon clan’s thoughts.
But later on, Lord Wumin showed up and the project was put on hold for a long time. But thanks to Lord Wumin, the map was drawn in more detail.
When he first returned to the human world, Adao wanted to go directly to Yuanqing, but due to Zhanli’s identity as a demon, he had to go to Liuyunxuan.
I can’t just leave Zhan Li alone, right? After all, I’m the senior brother and I have to take care of my junior brother.
But who knew that Yue Niang from Liuyunxuan was so abominable that she asked him to work with her for a hundred years before she was willing to help. In order to save Lingxiang, he had no choice but to agree, but Adao also kept a watchful eye.
It only said that it was work, but it didn’t say when it would be done or when to go afterwards. Isn’t it up to you to decide?
Maybe it’s up to you to decide…
Adao was not quite sure, but he could not afford to think too much at the moment.
Under the city wall, the battle was raging. Although they were not at a disadvantage, they were still unable to capture the palace gate, and the demon soldiers kept coming in. If this continued, they would lose soon.
How can the physical strength of mortals compare with that of demons?
With only the three of them, even if they came forward to help, it would be a drop in the bucket. There would also be the risk of being exposed, which would increase the difficulty of infiltration.
But if they don’t help, once these Taoists have exhausted their strength and lost the battle, even if the three of them sneak in, they may not be able to deal with the remaining demon soldiers after being discovered.
What’s more, there can’t be no other guards in the city. That old witch, Huanhuan, hasn’t seen him yet!
We seem to be in a dilemma right now, unable to advance or retreat.
Just when Adao was in a dilemma, he saw Long Qi, wearing a face scarf from nowhere, rushing down with a roar, and Chi Yanzi followed closely behind.
Are these two crazy?!
Long Qi was a reckless person, but what was wrong with that old man? Why was he so impatient?
Besides, what’s the point of wearing a scarf? You are wearing a Taoist robe from the Yuanqing Sect! Do you think the demons are all fools like you?
Adao held his forehead with his hand, feeling a severe headache. However, there was nothing he could do. He could only observe secretly and wait for his chance to act.
Although Lingxiang did teach Adao many skills, most of them were for human practice, which was somewhat inappropriate for Adao, a demon.
Lingxiang was not familiar with the ways of the devil and knew that what she could teach was limited, so during this trip, she had warned Adao repeatedly that if possible, he should not show up rashly and should leave everything to others.
Adao was well aware of the pros and cons of the matter, and also understood that it was for his own good, so he kept Lingxiang’s instructions in mind along the way. Except for the time when he stopped Xinyi, he never took action at other times, and left all the fighting to Zhanli.
Although he was unwilling, he had to admit that Zhan Li was indeed more capable than his senior brother.
Ah!
That’s all…
Ah Dao thought awkwardly, and suddenly felt that he was a little stingy, so he shook his head quickly.
It’s already this time, how can you be the same as that hottie Long Qi?
Really, it’s so inconsiderate!
The trouble right now is not those demon soldiers, but the Grand Marshal guarding the palace gate.
Others only know the two brothers, Yinghuan and Feilian Shanglu. After all, these three led the troops in most wars. But few people know that behind them there is a Grand Marshal who commands the three armies.
Without some ability, how can you control these three people?
When inquiring for information, Lingxiang once said that Da Sima had a hot temper and although he didn’t have any scheming minds, his strength should not be underestimated.
The fact that he dared to shout in front of the Demon Lord showed that this old man was no ordinary man, not to mention that when the Demon Lord was not around, the safety of the demon world could be entrusted to him.
Da Sima is deeply trusted by the Demon Lord.
Moreover, Lingxiang had been trying to find out the real strength of Sima Da for such a long time, but she still couldn’t find out the real strength of Sima Da. Even when she asked Lord Wumin, she only got the answer that he was a veteran of three dynasties, and she knew nothing else.
Now that no powerful old Taoist priests have come, what chances do we have of winning if we only rely on these small Taoist priests?
Adao looked worriedly at the Grand Marshal who was sitting in front of the palace gate. The latter seemed to be too disdainful to take any action and was even sitting there drinking tea.
Tea?
Ah Dao suddenly had an idea. He had some good things given by Ling Xiang in his hands, but he didn’t know how to temporarily divert Da Sima’s attention.
While he was thinking, a long sword flew straight towards Da Sima. The latter just turned his head slightly and dodged it easily, as if it was just a leaf.
What a great man who remained calm even when facing a collapse of Mount Tai. This level of composure is truly extraordinary!
The one who threw the sword was Long Qi.
Seeing this, Ah Dao couldn’t help but hold his forehead again –
This reckless man really thinks his life is not long enough…
