Daily life of slaying demons in the government

Chapter 420 Revenge for Junior Sister

At Huimu Pass, everyone from the newly appointed general Zhao Ting to the ordinary soldiers stood at the pass and watched the thunder rumbling like rain in the distance.

Never before had the soldiers of Huimu Pass become spectators as they did now.

The fire vine balls fired by the cannon were useless. The spiders were getting closer and closer, and everyone knew that people were going to die next.

But no one expected that Yang Qian, who was standing on a high place, would suddenly attack with such a powerful thunderstorm. In just one round, all the spiders on the bamboo path were cleared out, leaving nothing but ashes.

After one round there is a second round.

Spiders are endless, and thunderstorms never stop. Is this a waste?
Three thunderstorms and rainstorms fell in succession. Everyone was shocked by Yang Qian's power, and was also amazed at how there were so many spiders in the bamboo sea. Could it be that this killing method could not kill them all? There was even a fear that if Yang Qian had not been present today, what would have happened? Would Huimuguan be crushed to ashes?
"Sir, if we continue to waste time like this, it will be very disadvantageous to you! I think we should withdraw first and retreat to Mopan Town!"

What Zhao Ting was thinking about was not just what was in front of him.

Based on Zhao Ting's experience, this beast tide seemed very strange. Not only was it a rare insect beast tide, but it was also all single spiders, and among them there were ordinary poisonous spiders and monster-level spiders, which was also unreasonable.

Because the relationship between demon-level spiders and ordinary spiders is often hunter and prey. Now they are forming a group to attack the pass, which is not what a beast tide should be like.

Although he was not sure, Zhao Ting felt that this abnormality was probably related to the demon cultivators in the Wanli Bamboo Sea. So he was worried that Yang Qian had fallen into a trap and was overly exhausted by these spiders. If there were any changes later, he would suffer a great loss.

Hearing Zhao Ting's reminder from behind, Yang Qian shook his head and continued to hold the seal in his hand to control the thunder, saying: "We can't retreat, these spiders are too fast, and they will definitely scatter after entering the pass, which will be even more difficult to deal with later.

Besides, I suspect these spiders are the demon cultivators from the Silk-Channeling Cave. If I retreat, I don't know how they will get more aggressive.

Besides, there is a saying that goes "fight against enemy foes". I am not afraid of a fight to outlast the opponent. It all depends on who can outlast the other."

Fighting with consumption? Zhao Ting saw it, how could Yang Qian not see it?

It was obvious that they were using Huimu Pass as a threat, pressing Yang Qian here, and using a large number of spiders to break through the pass to consume Yang Qian's magic power.

This strategy is not stupid, it is just used in the wrong place.

If it was two months ago, Yang Qian would have been a little timid about this rogue style of play. After all, the consumption of mana for a powerful method like Thunderstorm is really huge. After three or five consecutive Thunderstorms, Yang Qian would probably have to take a breath. After six or seven, there would be little mana left in his body.

But now, with the change of the underlying cognition of "Northern Mysterious Book", Yang Qian's control over power is no longer the same as before. The same Thunderstorm, the power has increased by 40%, but the consumption has decreased by 30%. In addition, with fine control, the range of the thunder is only controlled on the narrow bamboo road, instead of purely brute force, the consumption will be further reduced.

Normally, after seven or eight thunderstorms, Yang Qian would have been out of breath and his magic power would have been depleted, but now Yang Qian could easily release more than ten thunderstorms.

And what about the spiders? Do you really think there is an infinite number of them?
If he could really create an endless army of spiders, why would he stay in the bamboo sea? It would be like playing to conquer most of the Hongwu Dynasty.

Sure enough, when Yang Qian's thunderstorm hit the ninth round, the number of spiders in the bamboo forest was obviously reduced. However, a surge of demonic energy rose from the bamboo forest not far away, and the source of the demonic energy could be vaguely seen as a human figure suspended in the air.

"Yang Qian! You killed my junior sister. It will be fine if you accept the challenge today. But if you act like a coward, I will make sure there will be no peace in Huimu Pass in the future!" The voice was loud and harsh, but it traveled through a distance of more than ten miles and directly shook the Huimu Pass. Many ordinary soldiers were even dizzy and fell down.

"Sir! Don't take risks!" Zhao Ting was a little anxious. This was clearly a trap for Yang Qian. If Yang Qian really fell into it, if something happened, the whole Shuangqing Prefecture would be in big trouble. Not only would the light that had been hard to come by be extinguished again, but many people would also die.

Juan on the side also quickly spoke up to stop them. His opinion was the same as Zhao Ting's. He felt that this matter was too strange and that Yang Qian should not take the risk alone.

But Yang Qian didn't think so. He was curious about why the other party came to challenge him so blatantly? This didn't seem to be consistent with the usual obscure style of the forces in the Wanli Bamboo Sea, right?

And who is the "junior sister" the other party claims to be? And revenge?

The only thing Yang Qian could think of was to combine the sea of ​​spiders in front of him and associate it with the big spider he killed in the Yuzhu Forest.

In that case, he should be the demon cultivator from the Chansi Cave.

This is where things get interesting.

The demon cultivators from Chansi Cave had previously invaded the prefecture and confronted Yang Qian face to face. Later, they teamed up with the thieves from Feiyun Valley to ambush Yang Qian in Yuzhu Forest. It can be said that they have always been operating in the dark but very aggressively.

But this time it was very different.

According to Yang Qian's idea, if the Chansi Cave attacked him again, he would first consume their forces and then directly attack Huimu Pass, and he would definitely use the advantage of superior numbers to bully the weak, which was in line with the usual style of the Chansi Cave.

But now they are shouting at the top of their lungs from ten miles away and threatening with Huimu Pass. This doesn't seem right no matter how you look at it. At least it's not the style of Chansi Cave and Feiyun Valley.

Too hesitant and too embarrassed.

Yang Qian quickly thought through all the twists and turns in his mind, and then he had a plan in mind. He didn't think that what was in front of him was a murderous conspiracy by Chansi Cave, but more like a personal vendetta?
Yang Qian even thought of the cause and effect in his mind: Didn't he say he was going to avenge his junior sister? He didn't know from where he got to Huimu Pass, so he came out to take revenge. The purpose of the first attack was to consume him, and the second attack was to provoke and threaten him.

As for why they didn't attack Huimu Pass, or kill Yang Qian before he arrived at Huimu Pass, the reason is hard to guess. Yang Qian wondered if it was possible that the other party didn't dare to do so?

For example, they dare not enter the territory of Shuangqing Prefecture without permission, or even leave the bamboo sea without permission?

Yang Qian waved his hand and said, "Don't worry. He has caused such a big scene in Huimu Pass, we can't let him get away like this. Conspiracies and schemes also require strength as a foundation. I'll be back soon."

After saying that, Yang Qian stepped directly onto the parapet of the pass. With a tap of his foot, a cloud lifted him up and carried him towards the bamboo forest at the foot of the mountain more than ten miles away.

It was too late for Zhao Ting and Hu An to dissuade him, and they could only watch Yang Qian fly away into the sky.

Soon, Yang Qian flew over the bamboo sea, and his divine sense swept the surrounding area for dozens of miles. Everything was as he expected, there was no ambush here, only the murderous man in black robe in front of him.
