Chapter 199

"Tell them to leave the carriage," Ashina Chong said.

Hongjun said, "Won't it be easier to protect everyone if we stick together?"

"Do it, quick!" Ashina Chong said.

Hongjun knew that everyone in the Exorcist Division had been through hundreds of battles. Most of the time, he just had to follow orders. Ashina Chong used to be a guard of the Isai family. Since he made such a judgment, there must be a reason.

"Hide, everyone!" Hongjun got off the carriage and informed the caravan. Almost at the same time, there was a sharp cry in the distance. Then, it sounded like thousands of soldiers and horses were galloping on the plains!

"What is that?" Hongjun looked into the darkness, thinking that there was a large army rushing towards them! Ashina Chong shouted, "Hide behind a rock!" The leader of the caravan said, "There must be at least ten thousand people!"

The tremors were getting closer and closer, almost reaching them in an instant. Hongjun had seen thousands of soldiers and horses outside of Chang 'an, so why would he be afraid of these "ten thousand people"? He shook his left hand and released the Penta-Colored Holy Light. His right hand held up four flying daggers, which floated in the air. He was prepared to use the Holy Light to resist the first wave of attacks.

The tremors were so close that it shook the heavens and the earth. Hongjun suddenly realized that this was not a cavalry! Cavalry could not make such a loud noise … But just as he thought about it, the black giant crashed into the Penta-Colored Holy Light with a boom!

The caravan was instantly smashed into smithereens, accompanied by bursts of elephant trumpeting. Ashina Qiong shouted something behind him, but Hong Jun could no longer hear it. Then, a group of elephants wantonly trampled over him, trampling over him. Hongjun experienced the feeling of being trampled by a herd of elephants for the first time in his life. He was speechless. Although the Penta-Colored Holy Light could control Mount Tai, it was ultimately limited by the rider's physical strength. If Mount Tai really crashed down, the rider would be flattened.

Hongjun was trampled and could not even shout. He was knocked to the ground. Ashina Chong shouted from afar, as if to remind him of "fire". Then, Hongjun used the last of his strength to release flames. A pillar of fire shot up to the sky. The herd of elephants were frightened and trampled everywhere, immediately relieving the pressure on him.

Hong Jun straightened his body, ignoring the injuries from being stepped on. He turned his head to save Ashina Qiong, only to see the elephant herd in chaos. An elephant tripped the carriage and dragged the carriage into the distance. Hong Jun flew into the sky and chased after them with all his might. He chased high up in the sky above the elephant herd and released a blazing fireball that exploded on the ground.

He did not dare to directly blow up the herd of elephants, so he chose to release his spells in the open space. Every time a fireball fell, the herd of elephants would flee in terror. The surroundings were pitch black, and almost nothing could be seen on the ground. However, in the next moment, a fire broke out not far away. The carriage was ablaze. Hong Jun shouted, "Qiong!"

He almost chased in the wrong direction. Only when the carriage began to burn did he distinguish that several elephants were tripping the carriage and rushing towards the southwest. Hongjun chased after the carriage and saw that Ashina Chong was still on the carriage. The herd of elephants had reduced. Hongjun dived towards the ground.

At this moment, an unforeseen event occurred. A black shadow flew towards Hongjun from the ground and collided with him! Hongjun did not use the Rainbow Divine Light as he was flying at high speed. He was hit in the chest and immediately spat out blood in the air. Blood splattered. A bone-like claw had already reached in front of him and went straight for his eyes!

Hongjun released the flying dagger to protect himself. The claw came forward and pressed down on the flying dagger. In the darkness, Hongjun shouted, "Who is it?!"

Just as he shouted, the black shadow turned in the air again and gave a side kick. Hongjun was hit again. His chest made a dull sound and his Qi and blood surged. The black shadow came close to him and grabbed his throat!

In the blink of an eye, another figure rushed from behind and blocked the enemy for Hongjun in the air. He shouted, "Go!"

Hongjun fell to the ground. The herd of elephants had already scattered, leaving the carriage burning in the open space. Hongjun staggered towards the carriage and looked up at the sky. The two figures had disappeared.

"Hongjun!" Ashina Chong limped down from the carriage. Hongjun's vision turned black. He was first trampled by the herd of elephants, then ambushed. The last kick almost caused his internal organs to burst and bleed. But who was the one who suddenly appeared to save him? The voice was low and steady. It did not sound like anyone in the Exorcism Division. Moreover, when they were fighting, the three parties were flying at full speed in the air. The swordsman behind them obviously knew how to fly too.

"Hongjun! Hongjun! " At this time, it was Ashina Qiong who supported Hong Jun. It was dark all around, and Hong Jun felt dizzy from time to time. If it were anyone else, they might have been bedridden for three days after being beaten up like this. However, the Phoenix True Power in his body was working and was rapidly healing his body.

"Come here …"

Hongjun was dizzy and disoriented. He and Ashina Chong supported each other and ran into the darkness. There was only the burning carriage in the middle of the plain.

In the cave, the elephants were still trumpeting from time to time. Ashina Chong looked at Hongjun worriedly. After a while, Hongjun recovered. His internal injuries healed quickly and he could speak in a moment. However, when he tried to breathe, his dantian still hurt.

"Where is this place?" Hongjun asked tiredly.

"In the mountains." Ashina Chong said, "You vomited a lot of blood."

Hongjun waved his hand, indicating that he was fine. Ashina Chong said, "I was afraid that you would lose track of the direction, so I set the carriage on fire."

Hongjun nodded and described the fierce battle in the sky to Ashina Chong. Ashina Chong fell into deep thought after listening to the story.

"Was it the helpers you invited?" Hongjun asked.

The sudden appearance of reinforcements, who seemed to be very powerful and whose identity was unknown, could only mean that they were friends of Ashina Chong and Atay. However, Ashina Chong thought for a long time and shook his head, saying, "Almost none of our allies can fly."

That was strange. Even in the Exorcism Division, only Hongjun and Lu Xu could fly. Lu Xu could not fly in human form. Hongjun suddenly thought of the friend that the Ghost King had mentioned — Han Ba. Han Ba was a demon. Perhaps he could fly? But how did he know that they were in danger?

Late at night, strange noises could still be heard from outside. Ashina Chong said, "Can you move? Come, get up. We can't stay here for long. The enemy won't let us go. "

Hongjun struggled to stand up and replied, "We can't go out. The enemy has night vision and can see everything clearly at night."

Hongjun had suffered a sudden attack in the dark. Perhaps the enemy did not even need to use their eyes when waiting for them to move.

Ashina Chong was silent for a moment before saying, "Let's walk along the foot of the mountain."

The dark clouds dispersed, revealing a lofty stone mountain covered in weeds. A cold wind blew. Ashina Chong and Hongjun walked in the dark. Hongjun suddenly said, "What a strong Yin energy."

The Milky Way appeared on the horizon, brightening the dark night. Hongjun said, "We have to get back to the carriage as soon as possible."

Ashina Chong said, "Go north."

Ashina Chong was still able to identify the direction when he was brought out in a hurry. They had to go around the stone mountain to return to the plains. At the same time, they had to be on guard against the sudden appearance of an unknown enemy. The pale starlight shone in the dark night. There was an indescribable eerie atmosphere around the stone mountain.

Hongjun suddenly stopped. It was as if he had felt the same environment somewhere before … There was no sound of insects or water. This was a place of death. The silence was almost terrifying. Where was it? Countless memories surged in his mind. Not long ago … Tian Luo Mountain!

The Ba Snake's Tian Luo Mountain was almost exactly the same as this!

Ashina Chong asked, "What's wrong?"

"There's a demon here." Hongjun said, "We can't pass through here. Let's go!"

Wherever there was an air of death, there must be a very powerful demon living there. Furthermore, this demon was poisonous!

Ashina Chong carried Hongjun. Just as the two of them turned around, a hoarse voice sounded behind them.

"I couldn't find it anywhere." The voice said, "I didn't expect to find it so easily."

The black gravel was like a dense swarm of worms as it curled up from the ground and transformed into a human form. The demon had sharp claws, and there was blood on his fingernails. His skin was withered as he stood there silently. His body was about half Hong Jun's size, and he had a hunched back as he stared at Hong Jun. It was the enemy who had attacked him in the air earlier!

"Han Ba?" Hongjun said with a trembling voice.

"You know him?" Ashina Chong didn't know what the Ghost King had told him. Although he was extremely weak, he still went forward to block the demon with a flying knife in his hand.

"Yes, it's Han Ba …" Han Ba said in a low voice, "Come on, give me your body …"

"Wait!" Hongjun hurriedly said, "I have a letter from the Ghost King! I'm the Demon King of the Central Plains … "

Han Ba sneered. His lips cracked as he roared, "I want your blood, Demon King!"

Then, Han Ba pounced forward. His speed was even faster than Lu Xu's. When he rushed forward, Hongjun was caught off guard. He thought that he could stop the fight after he reported his identity. However, he didn't expect that Han Ba would kill him without any hesitation!

Ashina Chong was hit once and fell to the ground. Hongjun shook the Five-Colored Holy Light and collided with Han Ba. However, in the next moment, the Five-Colored Holy Light was shattered by Han Ba's sharp claws!

Hongjun: "…"

The Five-Colored Holy Light was shattered!

Ever since Hongjun stepped into the human world, he had used the Five-Colored Holy Light countless times. The Peacock King was a combination of God and Demon. In the world, only God and Demon could penetrate it. However, it was limited to "penetrating" and had never been shattered so thoroughly! The moment the Five-Colored Holy Light was shattered, Hongjun subconsciously leaned back. This movement saved his life. Han Ba's claws released flying insects and clawed at his neck.

In the next moment, Han Ba's other claw reached him. However, the figure behind Hongjun flashed and blocked Han Ba's sharp claws with a loud shout!

Hongjun fell to the ground. He opened his eyes wide and looked at the sudden arrival of reinforcements!

A man appeared in front of him. The man was eight feet tall. He didn't have time to talk to Hongjun. He was wearing iron armor and was covered in starlight. His fists and feet were as smooth as flowing water. In an instant, he exchanged several moves with Han Ba! The man was tall and sturdy. His movements were much slower than Han Ba's. However, every time Han Ba attacked, the tall man used his wrist guard and the iron armor on his shoulders to block. The sound of metal colliding rang out repeatedly.

After exchanging several moves, the two suddenly separated. Han Ba's hoarse voice angrily said, "It's you again?!"

"Mother!" A tender voice suddenly rang out.

"Feng 'er?!" That voice immediately made Hongjun feel as if he was struck by lightning. Immediately after, Chen Feng ran out from behind a rock and rushed into Hongjun's arms.

The tall man said, "Hurry up and leave! I'll hold him back! "

Han Ba said in a low voice, "Who exactly are you?"

"Go!" The man roared angrily.

Hongjun pulled Chen Feng up. Chen Feng said, "Go this way!"

"You know each other?!" Hongjun went to help Ashina Chong up. The three of them staggered out of the mountain. Han Ba's angry voice came from behind.

"You're definitely going to protect him today!"

"That's right!" The man's clear voice said, "Loser, come again?"

When Hongjun left the mountain, he suddenly turned around and used the starlight to clearly see the man's appearance. The man wore a strange armor. The Han Armor was different from the Han Armor, and the Tang Armor was different from the Tang Armor. The armor was like fish scales. It didn't cover the entire body. The silver scale armor only covered his left arm and shoulder, revealing his thin chest muscles and well-defined abdominal muscles. The muscles on his arms and legs were extremely explosive and full of masculine beauty. The only weapon on his right hand was a silver claw that was fastened to his wrist. The claw shone brightly.

The man's hair was tied up in a ponytail. He wore a silver mask that covered half of his face. He wore a pair of dragon-shaped boots. He didn't look like an assassin, nor did he look like a general. There was a scar on his abdomen from which some dark red blood flowed out. It had mostly stopped bleeding. It was obviously a new injury from the fierce battle with Han Ba.

Hongjun glanced back and coincidentally saw the man looking back at him. His eyes were bright and clear, as if he had a thousand words to say. However, he slightly bowed and focused his attention on Han Ba. His empty left hand waved to the side, indicating that there was no need to worry and that they should leave quickly.

Hongjun and Ashina Chong left the mountain. The sky was already bright. At dawn, the sun appeared in the east and shone down on the earth.

"Hongjun!" Lu Xu's voice sounded.

We're saved … Hongjun seemed to have lost all his strength. Qiu Yongsi chased after him and said, "How did you guys get … Feng-er?!"

Chen Feng looked at Qiu Yongsi and then at Hongjun. Behind them, another roar came from the mountain. Everyone's expression changed. Hongjun immediately said, "A friend is still inside! We have to go back and save him! "

Qiu Yongsi immediately said, "Lu Xu, protect Qiong …"

"You guys go." Ashina Chong said, "Don't worry about me. Apart from Han Ba, there won't be any more enemies."

From the mountain, Han Ba quickly chased after them. Hongjun was only halfway through his story when Lu Xu already knew the other party's path. He immediately turned into a flash of lightning and rushed forward with a swoosh! Another silver light chased after them. It was the man.

Qiu Yongsi shouted, "Attack! Surround him! "

The crowd surrounded Hiderigami in the center. When the silver-armored man saw that the exorcists had arrived, he no longer rushed forward. Instead, he stepped sideways in front of Hong Jun to prevent Hiderigami from suddenly attacking Hong Jun.

"I can do it!" Hongjun's injuries had already recovered by about seventy percent. Meanwhile, the sun was slowly rising. Its shadow swept across the land and shone on Han Ba.

"Stop!" Qiu Yongsi angrily shouted, "There's no need for us to be enemies!"

Han Ba let out a shrill laugh and shouted, "What do you know?! Hand over the little peacock! Otherwise, you'll all die here! "

"Let's see if you have the ability to do so first." Lu Xu coldly said, "Ugly monster!"

Before Han Ba noticed Lu Xu, Lu Xu had already closed in on him. He stepped on Han Ba's knee and slapped the mummy's face. Han Ba was instantly enraged and wanted to grab Lu Xu. However, Lu Xu flipped over his shoulder. Han Ba was instantly enraged. He ignored the people in front of him and turned to charge at Lu Xu.

In the Exorcism Division, Lu Xu was the most valiant when it came to defeating enemies. Li Jinglong, Mo Rigen, and Qiu Yongsi had once discussed a series of strange moves. When Lu Xu gained the upper hand with his speed, he would slap any humanoid demon that came close to him. Mo Rigen had been slapped several times. He knew that this move was simply too humiliating. No matter if it was a demon or a human, after being slapped like this, they would immediately be enraged and would definitely not let Lu Xu off. Lu Xu then took the opportunity to flip over to the enemy's back. As long as he turned around, his back would be wide open. The others immediately attacked with magic, which would be very effective.

Sure enough, this "slap tactic" worked. Hongjun threw out a flying knife. Qiu Yongsi flipped his palm and a demon subduing pestle appeared in his hand. At the same time, he shouted, "Demon-binding Rope —!"

Hongjun threw out the Demon-binding Rope. Qiu Yongsi rushed forward and swept the rod. When Lu Xu pulled back, Han Ba was even faster and almost grabbed him. Then, Qiu Yongsi's demon subduing pestle hit Han Ba's waist. Han Ba knew that he had fallen into a trap. He turned around just as the sun rose from the east and shone into his eyes. He cried out in pain.

"He's afraid of sunlight!" Qiu Yongsi shouted. "Now!"

Hongjun took half a step forward and threw out the Demon-binding Rope with both hands. Ten thousand rays of golden light wrapped around Han Ba. Lu Xu took the opportunity to retreat. Han Ba flew into the air and tried to escape. However, the silver-armored warrior beside Hongjun leaped into the air and used his steel claws to grab Han Ba's head.

Han Ba leaned back. Hongjun's Demon-binding Rope turned into an inescapable net and wrapped around Han Ba. Immediately, Han Ba fell to the ground. Dust flew everywhere.
