Chapter 80: Demon Extermination
Dian Cang Sect, Erhai Lake.
A graceful figure crossed the prohibition and arrived by the side of Erhai Lake, gazing at the alluring figure in the water that resembled a mermaid. In her eyes, there was admiration, infatuation, and envy.
But after just one glance, she lowered her head and dared not look again, silently waiting.
Lu Tianxiang happily swam in Erhai Lake, enjoying the feeling of freedom. That's why she swam every day.
After enjoying herself for a while, Lu Tianxiang walked towards the shore, her crystal-like perfect jade feet stepping on the surface of the sea without causing a ripple. The reflection of her perfect figure was mirrored on the sea.
When she stepped onto the shore, the water vapor on her body automatically evaporated. Her bare feet were three feet above the ground, as if she would never touch the ground. Coupled with the halo behind her head, she looked like a true celestial being.
The graceful figure respectfully said, "Leader, Wu'an Wang has mobilized the Jingye Department of the Three States to enter Leizhou, and has ordered the four major sects of Leizhou to assist, claiming that they will definitely suppress the demon who has been continuously slaughtering cities within half a month."
"Very good."
Lu Tianxiang smiled coquettishly, making Erhai Lake even more beautiful.
"Spread my order and increase the efforts of preaching in Dingyuan Mansion and Dingji Mansion."
The graceful figure was stunned and shocked, saying, "Leader, shouldn't we be more low-key at this critical moment?"
In her opinion, this was too risky. It should be noted that Wu'an Wang had mobilized a large number of powerful individuals to enter Leizhou. The secret preaching they were doing was likely to be exposed.
After the demon was suppressed, the next target of the Great Qian Dynasty would be them. The Great Qian Dynasty would not allow a new White Lotus Sect to rise.
After glancing at the graceful figure, Lu Tianxiang felt that this newly recruited subordinate still lacked a broader perspective. After thinking for a moment, she patiently explained:
"Hehuan Sect and the Yin Yang Sect behind it will not sit idly by. If that demon is smart, he will temporarily avoid the limelight. We can take this opportunity to develop our followers."
The graceful figure suddenly realized and left excitedly. Lu Tianxiang shook her head slightly at the sight.
Wu'an Wang was ostensibly here to guard the Three States and eradicate the remnants of the White Lotus Sect, but he had not taken any action since arriving in Huozhou. Recently, he even recalled Yang Tianxiong and Wan Guiyuan, two Grandmasters. Obviously, he was planning something.
Two months ago, news came from the mysterious force behind her. Lu Tianxiang finally understood why Wu'an Wang had been holed up in Huozhou City.
Wu'an Wang was waiting for a great opportunity to emerge!
That opportunity seemed to be able to improve the quality of the True Martial Realm's martial dao true pill when breaking through. Lu Tianxiang's heart was also burning with desire. She wanted to obtain it.
In order to have a chance to participate, Lu Tianxiang couldn't care about much else. She wanted to quickly restore her strength and even push her cultivation forward by a large margin.
Otherwise, even though she was a Myriad Manifestations Realm Grandmaster, she would not have the qualifications to get involved. She knew her own limitations and knew that she couldn't last more than three moves against Wu'an Wang.
"I hope that old female disciple of Hehuan Sect can be more helpful and buy me more time." Lu Tianxiang's gaze became extremely profound as she muttered to herself.
The demon extermination operation that attracted the attention of Leizhou and even the Three States had begun mightily.
Six Empty Void Realm Grandmasters formed six teams, and numerous Soul Refining Realm cultivators formed six groups. They simultaneously launched a carpet-style search from twelve directions in Leizhou, converging towards the center of Leizhou.
Their spiritual senses spread out, covering large areas of territory, in an effort to find the demon leader Lu Xiu and kill him.
Wu'an Wang only gave them half a month. They didn't have time to wait for the demon to take the initiative. So they adopted this clumsy method. In half a month, they could sweep through Leizhou hundreds of times.
As long as Lu Xiu, the demon leader, was still in Leizhou, he couldn't escape their search. The Soul-Devouring Umbrella in Lu Xiu's hands gathered millions of resentful souls, with overwhelming resentment that couldn't be completely concealed.
On a desolate mountain near Fengyang Mansion, Lu Xiuzheng, dressed in black, hid himself here.
At this moment, he felt somewhat uneasy and secretly regretted his recklessness.
After playing a trick on Ji Rufeng earlier, he pretended to escape into the Yin Yang Path, but in reality, he came here to lurk and wait for the right opportunity.
This time, he came to the Great Qian Dynasty to massacre cities, not only to collect resentful souls to enhance the grade of the Soul-Devouring Umbrella, but also to secretly follow the instructions of the high-level members of the Yin Yang Path.
Otherwise, Lu Xiuzheng would rather slowly massacre villages in the Yin Yang Path and collect resentful souls than cause trouble in the Great Qian Dynasty at this critical moment, which would most likely result in his death.
The high-level member not only held a high position of power, but was also a Grandmaster of the Myriad Manifestations, and the conditions he offered were impossible for Lu Xiuzheng to refuse. He knew that refusing would be a dead end.
The high-level member wanted to know the true purpose of the Martial Peace King hiding in Huozhou City. He wanted Lu Xiuzheng to massacre cities within the Great Qian Dynasty to test the Martial Peace King's reaction and see if he would continue to keep all the Grandmasters hiding in Huozhou City.
For this reason, the high-level member gave Lu Xiuzheng a treasure, which was also the reason why he was able to escape from Ji Rufeng's pursuit time and time again.
Without that treasure, with only the Earth Grade top-quality Soul-Devouring Umbrella, he could unleash a combat power comparable to the first level of the Empty Void Realm, but he was no match for Ji Rufeng, let alone escape.
In addition to the treasure, the high-level member also mentioned that there would be a Grandmaster infiltrating the Great Qian Dynasty to protect him, and the Hehuan Sect would also provide some assistance.
Yesterday, Lu Xiuzheng learned that the Martial Peace King was furious. Although he did not mobilize the Grandmasters, he did deploy six Grandmasters and a large number of Soul Refining Realm experts. This made Lu Xiuzheng somewhat complacent.
After his complacency, all that remained was fear. With so many Grandmasters and experts coming to hunt him down, once discovered, he would have no chance of escape.
"Wait a little longer. After the storm passes, I will massacre two more cities and then escape. By then, with the Earth Grade top-quality Soul-Devouring Umbrella, the treasures in the ruins will surely be mine."
Lu Xiuzheng forced himself to calm down and kept repeating in his mind, praying not to be discovered, while also hoping that the high-level members of the Yin Yang Path had not deceived him.
If there was an Empty Void Grandmaster to help him, plus the renowned Sect Master of the Hehuan Sect, he had a good chance of returning to the Yin Yang Path alive.
Lu Xiuzheng regretted being too reckless. If he had escaped to Qingyun Mansion earlier, he would have had the opportunity to sneak back into the Yin Yang Path instead of waiting here.
At this moment, a figure suddenly appeared behind him, causing Lu Xiuzheng to tremble.
"No need to be nervous."
A hoarse voice sounded, and Lu Xiuzheng saw the man in the black hood, which relieved him. It seemed that this was the Empty Void Realm Grandmaster who was secretly protecting him, as mentioned by the high-level member.
But the next words from the man in the hood made Lu Xiuzheng's heart tremble.
"Ji Rufeng, Gongsun Yun, and others are searching from twelve different directions. You can't hide anymore. Now I'll give you two choices: temporarily hand over the Soul-Devouring Umbrella to me and continue hiding here, or come with me to Qingyun Mansion, but I can't guarantee your safety."
The hoarse voice of the man in the hood struck Lu Xiuzheng's heart like a heavy hammer, making his face pale.
He didn't expect Ji Rufeng and the others to be so ruthless, actually conducting a carpet search from twelve different directions, using their powerful spiritual senses to sweep everything. His Soul-Devouring Umbrella was filled with intense resentment and could indeed not be hidden.
But Lu Xiuzheng couldn't hand over the Soul-Devouring Umbrella. It was his most powerful trump card, a formidable weapon that was about to be promoted to an Earth Grade top-quality treasure. It was his means of survival, and he still wanted to use it to compete for the treasures in the ruins.
If this formidable weapon fell into the hands of the Empty Void Grandmaster, would he return it to him?
Lu Xiuzheng had no confidence in his heart, so he chose the second option.
The man in the hood glanced at him deeply, chuckled lightly, and said no more. He led Lu Xiuzheng away from this place.
Lu Xiuzheng prayed in his heart to safely return to Qingyun Mansion, but his prayers were in vain. Before the two of them could leave Dingji Mansion, they were discovered by the head of the Washing Sword Pool.
