Chapter 17

I was still worried before going to bed, which really made me fall asleep with a lot of anger. As a result, Qin Dang did not "attack" my mother that night. Instead, I had to urinate repeatedly because I drank too much water. When I woke up in the morning, the dark circles under my eyes were even deeper. I was listless and confused. I forced myself to change into the military uniform that Liu Kaigu had prepared for me in advance, got on the horse, and set off with the army. 

The road was completely desolate, with not a single person in sight. The villagers in the nearby villages either fled far away with their families or were robbed and slaughtered by the demons. When we reached the area thirty miles away from Xiaoguan, we finally encountered the demon army led by [Lei Batian Yuanzi] Tu Weiyang, who we had only heard of in rumors. The sky here was even more filled with demonic energy than at the foot of Guanshan Mountain. Especially at noon, the sky had already dimmed, and the scenery in front of us was covered with a depressing purple-red color. That feeling It was as if a layer of red gauze was covering your eyes, making everything look illusory. The demon clan's main general, Tu Weiyang, was riding on a group of red horses and riding out from the army. He was extremely tall, wearing dark black iron armor, with a red cape draped over his shoulders. The cape was embroidered with demon clan runes that I couldn't understand. He looked like an ordinary person, but the demonic aura that was visible to the naked eye and floating like an electric current frightened the horses under our crotch and stopped where they were, not daring to raise their hooves. 

When Liu Kaigu saw Tu Weiyang, he immediately reined in his horse and ordered the entire army to enter combat mode. The steed under Tu Weiyang's crotch, which was three times more majestic than a Ferghana horse, was called a horse, but when I got closer, I could see that it was actually a monster similar to a horse. It had limbs and a head similar to a horse, but a pair of furry ears like a gray wolf protruded to the left and right. Its eyes, which were larger than copper bells, had no pupils but only whites, which looked extremely creepy. The tail behind it, which was longer than its legs, was constantly swinging on the ground, splashing dust. The monster's limbs were abnormally majestic, and its four hooves were larger than those of a cow. After it stood firm, it neighed to the sky, which frightened the precious horse under my crotch and made it retreat again and again, almost throwing me off. 

"General Liu, I've heard of you for a long time. I didn't expect we would meet so soon." 

Tu Weiyang has a stunning and handsome face. Although he is tall and mighty, this face that looks just like a Han Chinese really surprised me. I always thought that the demons were all ugly monsters with all kinds of faces. Who knew that the leader was actually a handsome man? He was riding on the demon beast. When I saw Liu Kaigu doing a common Han Chinese fist-holding etiquette, those who didn't know would think he was some friendly army. 

"Stop trying to get close to me! You evil monsters with evil ambitions have repeatedly invaded the borders of our Qin Empire. Today, I, Liu Kaigu, will enforce justice on behalf of Heaven!" 

He was about to command the attack, but Tu Weiyang waved his hand and ordered the troops to disperse. He then approached Liu Kaigu and said with a smile on his face. 

"Wait, General Liu, why are you so impatient? I am not here to fight with you. You humans have an old saying called 'turn hostility into friendship'. Do you know that?" 

I frowned, thinking why is Tu Weiyang so literary, maybe she has bad intentions. I glanced at Qin Dang again, he was staring at Liu Kaigu calmly, my mother just had a blank expression, I don't know what she was thinking, but I can clearly feel the strong Qi flowing from her body, I'm afraid a fight is inevitable. 

"If you have anything to say, come on. This general doesn't have time to listen to your explanation of Chinese characters!" 

Although Liu Kaigu spoke sweetly, he was also full of suspicion. His big hands covered with calluses kept pressing on his sword, and his eyes were fixed on the other party. If Tu Weiyang made any strange moves, the army behind him would attack immediately and would not let the demon tribe pass Xiaoguan even a step! 

"I only want two people. If your country agrees, I will withdraw my troops immediately and return all the land and people in Longyou that I have occupied to you intact! And I promise that the demons will never invade the territory of Qin again! The two races of humans and demons will have a permanent alliance! How do you think?" 

When Tu Weiyang said this, Liu Kaigu was so shocked that he didn't know how to reply for a moment. The generals around me immediately whispered to each other. How could such a good thing happen in the world? Not to mention sending two people, even if the empress of the dynasty was sent over, the emperor would probably not say a word. The dispute between humans and demons has lasted for a thousand years. If this really happened, it would mean that the national problem that Daqin has been worried about for three hundred years has been solved. This matter is unprecedented and he couldn't help but be moved. Liu Kaigu swallowed his saliva and raised his head after a while to stare at Tu Weiyang and asked tentatively. 

"So... which two people do you want?" 

A hint of pride flashed across Tu Weiyang's handsome face. He looked at his mother who was staring at him in the crowd and sneered. 

"Renzong, Pei Zhaoji, Tianzong, Han Ningyan!" 

"this..." 

Liu Kaigu shuddered after hearing this. Just as he was about to open his mouth, Qin Dang, who was beside me, had already drawn his sword and jumped up from his horse. With the wind blowing under his feet, he actually flew straight up and jumped out of the army formation, pointing the sword in his hand directly at Tu Weiyang. 

"How dare you talk nonsense, you monster! Take my sword!" 

Liu Kaigu never thought that this young boy would be so brave. He also felt that he was too hesitant and actually wanted to negotiate with the demons. He was a high-ranking official, eating the emperor's food, but he wanted to negotiate with the demons. Isn't he the same as Wu Tian, ​​the traitor? 

"I never thought that the great Qin would let a little kid go to war." 

Tu Weiyang didn't even look at the sword Qin Dang was stabbing at him. He waved his arm and a large amount of demonic energy mixed with electric light came out of thin air in the direction Qin Dang was stabbing. In an instant, I saw the blade in Qin Dang's hand stabbed directly into the air, and the sword body seemed to be swallowed by something transparent. Qin Dang was also stunned. He was about to pull the sword in his hand out of the transparent electric current, but he only heard his mother shouting anxiously. 

"Dang'er, be careful!" 

Without waiting for Qin Dang to turn around, Tu Weiyang smiled grimly and clenched his fist. The electric current around his body instantly emitted a "sizzling" sound of sparks, and he uttered a low groan. 

"open!" 

Then I saw Qin Dang's eyes wide open, his whole body trembling, and large patches of white-gray lightning instantly appeared around Qin Dang's limbs, immediately covering his entire body tightly. In the surprised eyes of everyone, the white-gray lightning with a terrifying light emitted a large amount of dazzling light like sparks in the air, accompanied by Qin Dang's miserable cries and the traces of bones revealed from his body. 

"Aa ... 

Qin Dang's already weak and thin body was electrocuted like a roasted chicken in mid-air. I didn't even know when Tu Weiyang's gray-white electric light was released. The unlucky Qin Dang obviously overestimated his mediocre skills. Facing the second son of the demon clan, his reckless behavior was almost the same as giving away. In less than three seconds, Qin Dang fell from the sky with black smoke all over his body. I sighed and thought, it's over. My unlucky junior brother talked to me for a long time before the battle, but it turned out to be just talk. I don't know if he has ever heard of "the first bird to stick its head out will be shot down". 

"Danger!" 

What surprised me was that my mother flew out immediately after seeing this. She caught Qin Dang who was almost electrocuted and slowly descended from the air. She turned around and glared at Tu Weiyang. Her face, which was already cold and cold, was now full of anger. She instantly burst into an amazing sky-blue flow of true qi. The strong "qi" flow that penetrated her body actually dispersed all the evil spirits that had been floating around. 

"Master...Master's wife...I...cough..." 

"Dang'er, stop talking and take good care of your wounds. Your master will avenge you!" 

Qin Dang was a tough guy. His face was blackened by the electric shock and his hair was burnt, but he was not dead yet. I naturally hoped that this boy would be electrocuted by Tu Weiyang, but my mother didn't think so. Seeing her young master become like this because of standing up for me, my mother was so angry that her face turned pale and her lips trembled. She put Qin Dang next to me and said coldly, "Take good care of your junior brother." Then she floated into the air, and the whisk in her hand was swung. The sky-blue true energy on her body became stronger. The burst of true energy even made me feel the burning pain on my skin. 

"You evil creature, he is just a child, yet you are so cruel!" 

Mother's eyes were wide open, full of hatred and red. Thunder and lightning could be heard from the sky. Pale lightning split the red and purple sky from time to time. Suddenly, the wind and clouds surged, and the sky was covered with dark clouds. Raindrops as big as beans poured down from the sky. Liu Kaigu's throat itched and his whole body was shaking. He drove his horse back repeatedly. He could still remember the tragic scene when Niang Ningbo turned thousands of monsters into ashes with a wave of her hand. He was a mortal and didn't want to die in the hands of these immortal cultivators. 

"Oh? Fairy Han came uninvited before I could even catch you myself!" 

Tu Weiyang looked up at his mother standing in the clouds with a disdainful smile. He slapped his mount and shouted, rising from the ground. A purple gold hammer inlaid with demon clan spells appeared in his hand. The iron armor he was wearing also disappeared, revealing his sturdy body and strong muscles. On his powerful chest muscles were tattooed blue shackles like iron chains, with the center located in the heart pit on the left chest, as if a round hole was opened in the heart. It was very strange. The shackles absorbed the electronic airflow surrounding him into the flesh hole like blood vessels, and from time to time, the heartbeats were gurgling in it. 

"Your brother died in my hands. How can you compare to him?" 

Mother's narrow eyes suddenly widened, and her voice was like a sharp knife cutting into the heart, with murderous intent. As her bone-chilling voice rang out, the sky seemed to have opened its curtains, and large drops of rain fell down, but when they fell to mother's side, they were blocked by an invisible barrier. Mother held a whisk in her hand, and in this violent storm, she looked like a supreme statue, perfectly formed by nature. 

"Hmph, then I will first avenge my brother, and then I will capture the two of you fairy pigs and bring you back to Prisoner City to present you to my father to celebrate his birthday!" 

Tu Weiyang's face was ferocious, and the strong muscles on his arms suddenly bulged. He aimed the diamond hammer in his hand and swung it at my mother. I could see clearly that the hammer was similar to a meteor hammer. There was a chain behind the handle, and the source of the chain was the rune engraved on his chest. The hammer seemed to weigh a thousand pounds, and with the blessing of lightning, I guess not only people could not stop it, but even the extremely solid city wall would probably be smashed with a hole. 

"How dare you be so presumptuous, young man!" 

Mother uttered a gentle cry and waved her whisk. An aurora curtain immediately blocked in front of them. The iron hammer hit the barrier with a dull sound, and even cracked the barrier set by mother. Tu Weiyang stood up and swung his arm. He unexpectedly conjured up a purple gold hammer from his other hand. Another powerful blow followed. Mother dodged the blow with her delicate body. She gathered a strong energy with her backhand and pointed her green jade finger at the sky. The dark purple sky immediately flashed with a formation. There was a roar of thunder, and in an instant, thousands of pale lightning bolts came down, like thousands of silver needles flashing before my eyes, illuminating most of the sky. Tu Weiyang was startled, and quickly took back the hammer, muttering to himself the technique, and a circular shield appeared around him at the moment the lightning struck him. I was surprised to find that the lightning released by my mother was being slowly absorbed by him and then converted into electric current, which flowed along the black chains on his body back to the flesh hole in his heart... 

"Fairy Han, do you know why I am called [Lei Ba Tian Yuan Zi]?" 

Seeing that he was unharmed, my mother frowned, her chest rose and fell, and she waved her whisk again. The dark clouds in the sky became thicker and thicker. This time, ice pillars mixed with lightning and thunder hit Tu Weiyang from the clouds. Tu Weiyang had a sly smile on his face, and dodged several ice thunders in his graceful figure. I was surprised to find that as he absorbed the lightning released by my mother, his speed was also obviously accelerated. He swung the magic hammer that was refilled with demonic power with both hands, and hit my mother again one after another. My mother also dodged several hammers in a row with a light step, not falling behind at all. I secretly cheered for my mother, while Qin Dang beside him was almost dying, and he couldn't even say a complete sentence because of the pain. I glanced at the unlucky guy who was electrocuted and turned into a charcoal head, and thought to myself that you deserve it. You have done so many disgusting things to me, and now you are getting retribution. 

The battle was raging in the sky, and hundreds of thousands of troops on both sides were lying on their backs. Whether it was the ordinary people of the human race or the minions of the demon race, their identities and cultivation were far different from Tu Weiyang, who was a demon, or the mother of the Taoist female fairy. It was possible that a bolt of lightning or a ball of fire would fall and blow these mortal guys to pieces. 

"How about this trick!" 

Mother's eyebrows were raised, her eyes were wide open, and the Lingxu bun that had been tied up neatly behind her head was instantly scattered by the true energy from her body, as if three thousand galaxies were falling. Along with the pulse of true energy around her, the Yin-Yang Tai Chi spell gradually emerged from her body. The Tai Chi diagram immediately scattered in the air and quickly spread out a grayish-white aura. Once this grayish-white aura was released, it immediately lingered around her, as if it could not be shaken off, and the Tai Chi rune pattern became larger and rounder, and finally completely enveloped Tu Weiyang and mother. I couldn't even see the figures of the two, I could only barely see that a fierce true energy collision occurred in the Tai Chi barrier in a flash. 

"The Five Elements Reversal Technique?" 

I watched the fierce battle between the two in the sky with my eyes wide open, and couldn't help muttering to myself. Liu Kaigu, who was also watching intently, asked hurriedly. 

"Meng Xiaoyou, what is this technique?" 

Mother actually activated this formation. I felt something was wrong. With her level of Taoism, even if the opponent was one of the six famous demon generals of the demon clan, Mother should be able to deal with it easily, not to mention the dimensionality reduction attack. The four female Taoist sages are all excellent in Taoism, and the Taoist magic itself can restrain the magic of the demon clan. But Mother didn't seem to get any advantage. I sighed and said to myself. 

"This is one of the advanced Taoist techniques [Reversing the Five Elements]. Once this technique is deployed, a barrier similar to the Tai Chi Yin and Yang will appear with itself as the axis. Both parties in this barrier will have their five senses reversed, and the five elements can be reversed. Then Tu Weiyang can control lightning like mother. Mother is also aware of this. Her lightning-attributed Taoist techniques will be absorbed by Tu Weiyang and converted into his own power. The stronger she is, the stronger the opponent will become. It's a bit like using the opponent's strength to defeat him. This is probably why mother activated this formation. As long as the five elements are reversed, she will definitely be able to defeat this evil demon clan prince!" 

Liu Kaigu nodded and praised her, and at the same time heaved a sigh of relief: "Fortunately, Niangniang Ningbo came to help, otherwise I, Old Liu, really don't know what to do." 

I glanced at him and thought to myself, when Tu Weiyang asked you to hand over your mother, you hesitated for a moment. It is true that the world is dangerous. Even the most important generals of the empire will inevitably be tempted by the interests. I was about to speak when I heard the sound of horse hooves not far away. Soon, a tall horse galloped in front of Liu Kaigu and me. A scout covered in blood fell off the horse with a plop. Liu Kaigu was so shocked that he hurriedly stepped forward to help him up and asked. 

"What's wrong? Shouldn't you be on guard in Guyuan?" 

When I heard the word Guyuan, my heart tightened. Oh no! Could it be... 

"General...General...Guyuan was surrounded heavily. The demon army there is much larger than the one here. I struggled to crawl out of the pile of dead bodies to report the news!" 

"What!? Impossible! Tu Weiyang is fighting fiercely with the fairy from Tianzong, and you have Taoist friends to support you. How did you manage to hold on?" 

The scout's body was covered with sword wounds, his shoulder blade was pierced through, and he spoke with a weak breath. He coughed up a mouthful of blood and said. 

"General... the enemy is strong, and there are many evil cultivators among them who can perform sorcery. Although we fought hard, we are outnumbered. If you don't send troops to support us, I'm afraid Guyuan will be lost!" 

Liu Kaigu felt the dilemma for the first time, and also experienced Feng Xiang's helplessness when he was trapped in Pengyang 19 years ago. If he sent troops to rescue, what should he do with the main battlefield here? He could not guarantee that the Tianzong Daoist leader who was fighting fiercely with Tu Weiyang in Tianqiong could win 100%. Once the army moved, wouldn't it be like handing Xiaoguan over to the demon clan? But if he didn't rescue, once Guyuan was lost, the loss of Xiaoguan would be a foregone conclusion... 

"General Liu, I'll go!" 

I saw Liu Kaigu hesitated and thought again and again. Guyuan City was crucial to this battle. The Huan brothers had absorbed most of Fairy Pei's skills. If the two of them could not repel the enemy for a while, it meant that the monsters besieging the city were probably not weaker than those here. Although I was not proficient in skills, I was also a cultivator. It was better than letting those mortal soldiers keep dying. 

"This...Meng Xiaoyou, it's not that I forbid you to go, but you are alone, what can you do even if you go?" 

I frowned and said, "General, I know I am alone, but now my fellow apprentice is in danger of death, and my master is unable to escape. In this army, besides me, who can stop those evil demons who can call the wind and rain?" 

After listening to me, Liu Kaigu paced back and forth with his chin in his hand. His bloodshot eyes scanned my face, and seeing that I looked solemn and serious, he finally clapped his hands and nodded as if he had made up his mind. He dismounted and led his precious horse to me, handed me the reins, patted my shoulder, and spoke earnestly. 

"Meng Xiaoyou, it's rare that there is a passionate man like you in my Great Qin. This horse has been with me for half my life, and it can travel a thousand miles a day. I'm giving it to you today, and I wish you a triumphant return!" 

I nodded, took the reins he handed me, jumped up, and without saying a word, I clamped my legs around the horse's belly and whipped the horse. The horse neighed, galloped wildly, splashing a trail of dust and carrying me to Guyuan City. 

I didn't see a single person along the way, not even any beacon smoke. I felt strange, but I dared not delay and had to hurry on, hoping to reach the battlefield as soon as possible. Although I hoped that the Huan brothers would die together on the battlefield, for the overall situation, if they also died, I was afraid that my three tricks would not bring me any benefits. With great anxiety in my heart, I finally saw the shadow of Guyuan City in the distance, but to my surprise, there was no fighting here at all, let alone the evil cultivator who could swallow clouds and spit out smoke that the scout mentioned. From the tower, I couldn't even see a soldier guarding the city. I was full of doubts. Just as I was about to stop my horse, I felt a whistling sound in my ear. I subconsciously turned my head to hide, and the corner of my eye saw I saw a cold steel knife sliding past my scalp, which frightened me so much that my back went cold and cold sweat immediately oozed from my forehead. I knew I was ambushed, and I didn't dare to look back to see which grandson was plotting against me. I turned my horse and ran away. Unexpectedly, the horse turned its body and bent its front hooves downward. I heard the horse neigh, and the horse that Liu Kaigu had just sent to me sank in response and fell directly to the ground. I then discovered that there was a trip rope tied to the towering trees on both sides of the ground. I also fell off the horse and almost fell apart. As soon as I looked up, I saw two short figures standing in front of me triumphantly. The two of them held a large machete shining with a brilliant light and laughed at my embarrassed appearance. 

"You two bastards!" 

The people who came were none other than the brothers of the Huan family who were assigned to defend Guyuan. They raised their eyebrows and said nothing. They swung their machetes at me. I endured the severe pain as if my calf was broken, and quickly pulled out a talisman from my arms and threw it at the two of them. There was a loud bang in front of them, and the leaves on the branches fell down. I knew it was not a good place to stay for long. These two people were deliberately trying to harm me, and I didn't know what had happened in Guyuan City. I just wanted to escape from here quickly, but I obviously underestimated the determination of the Huan brothers to kill me. They jumped up in the dust, and two balls of fire attacked my back. I felt that my heels were about to be burned. I threw back a few blasting spells to delay time. On the other hand, I knew that I couldn't run away, so I had to secretly recite the [Pingyang Jue] taught by Qin Dang. Suddenly, a large amount of true "Qi" began to accumulate in my lower abdomen Dantian. But just when the "Qi" flow was about to condense, I felt that Dantian suddenly deflated, and I couldn't break through the second level again like before. 

"Meng Feng, don't run away, you know you can't escape!" 

"Humph, you want to escape? No way!" 

The two brothers of the Huan family worked together to generate a large flame from their palms, which was mixed with the blue true energy of Pei Xianzi. They slapped me from behind. I tried my best to dodge but was still hit on the shoulder. It felt like boiling water was poured on my shoulder, and I trembled in pain. I shouted angrily and slapped the towering tree. The power of the wave-breaking palm immediately spread throughout the tree, and irregular cracks appeared on the surface of the tree. Then I heard a creaking sound, and the internal force I emitted completely broke the tree roots. The tree roared down towards the Huan brothers, and the Huan brothers had to give up the fire bombs they had been firing and retreated again and again. 

"Brother Meng, you still have some tricks up your sleeve!" 

"Brother, stop talking nonsense with him, we have important things to do!" 

I heard Huanyu sneer, and he ran towards me with great speed, the machete in his hand dragging on the ground, and I could clearly see that there were hot sparks lingering on the blade! Where the blade rubbed, there was actually a burnt mark on the ground. 

Is this the [Qi Yan Jue]? I remembered the technique that Qin Dang mentioned. This should be the technique that can add fire elements to weapons. It is also the most proud military skill of Pengcheng King Han Shaogong. Before, when I fought with Huan Chong in Luojing, I experienced the [Qi Yan Jue] used by this person. It was so powerful that I was completely unable to resist it. Now this Huanyu can even fully demonstrate the power of this technique, which really surprised me. I held my breath and concentrated, chanted a spell in my heart, and tried to condense my true energy. I turned around and no longer thought about running away. I thought to myself that I am the son of Tianzong, and I must die honorably. I turned around and slapped him. The Liebo Palm is penetrating. Coupled with my years of hard training, the strength of my palm is far beyond my imagination. One palm strike is worth more than a thousand gold. Huanyu swung the machete that had been dragging on the ground with his backhand. My inner strength penetrated the blade and directly attacked Huanyu's heart. Huanyu shouted loudly, and the flames attached to the blade shot up high. The scorching flames instantly burned the air like a heat wave. I felt as if my palm was pressed on a red-hot iron plate, making a sizzling sound. I quickly retracted my hand, and Huanyu became even more arrogant when he saw this. He grinned, waved his left arm, and drew a yin-yang spell in the air with a big word "man" written on it! I glanced up, and before I could react, my whole body was sucked over by the suspended spell like a magnet, and next to the spell was the big machete that was splashing with sparks, waiting for me to stretch my neck and kill! 

"Little guy, this day next year will be the anniversary of your death!" 

Seeing Huanyu laughing wildly, my hairs all over my body were on the ground, because I was completely unable to resist this powerful suction. I had heard a little about this spell from my mother before. It was one of the famous skills of Fairy Pei of the Human Sect, the [Soul-sucking Talisman]. It was said that it was taught by [Nuwa] Feng Lixi to [Bixia Yuanjun] Gu Jiuci to punish those who did not abide by the Taoist rules and regulations. As long as the Taoist has "qi", it can be absorbed by it, and finally die of exhaustion! I think it was these two who learned it by absorbing Fairy Pei's skills. Master's wife, you didn't expect that your proud Taoist skills would cost your beloved disciple's life in the end! 

Just when I was in despair, I suddenly saw a figure flash through the dense forest. When I looked closely, I heard a sharp cry from Huan Chong who was so proud of himself not far away. Then I saw a young man in a monk's robe flash out and rush towards me with a sword in his hand. 

"Han Qi?" 

I was delighted to see that the person who came was none other than Fairy Pei's son who was supposed to stay at Ziwei Temple, that is, my senior brother, Han Qi! 

Seeing that I didn't say much, Han Qi raised his sword and chopped at Huanyu who was casting a spell. Huanyu never expected Han Qi to jump out of nowhere. He hurriedly dodged but was still chopped on the shoulder blade by Han Qi. The sharp blade broke through the military uniform Huanyu was wearing, and a large amount of blood oozed out along the clothes. Huanyu wailed, gritted his teeth, raised the steel knife in his hand high, and the flaming blade came down across the sky. I only heard a "clang"! The swords collided and splashed sparks. Huanyu smiled grimly without caring about the shoulder that was almost chopped off. 

"Who was I thinking? It turns out it's you, my wild son, who's here to join in the fun!" 

He smiled and gathered his inner strength on the blade. The fire on the machete became even stronger, and finally the machete was burned red. The sword in Han Qi's hand was melting bit by bit. I remembered that when I was fighting with Huan Chong in the bath, he released the [Qi Yan Jue] which could burn steel. I couldn't help but shout to Han Qi. 

"Brother, you can't resist this thief's skills head-on, run!" 

Unexpectedly, Han Qi's eyes flashed with a sharpness, and a large amount of true energy instantly lingered around him, and then gradually gathered at one point along the sword in his hand. Even his pupils seemed to be ignited by the flames, gradually turning into the same flames as the flames on the blade of the universe. He flipped the blade in his hand, and the flames shot out. The scene in front of me surprised me. I saw that the sword suddenly burst out with a large amount of blue flames. Yes, I was not mistaken, it was indeed blue fire, and it was almost transparent. Moreover, this blue fire instantly devoured the flames released by the universe, and finally transformed into more dazzling blue sparks. 

"You? How come you also know this [Qi Yan Jue]?" 

Huanyu was obviously more surprised than I was. He retreated again and again, and was finally forced to the side of a big tree. The scorching blue fire almost set his eyebrows on fire, and the dwarf was so scared that he kept ducking his head to avoid it. 

"How can a young man like you master my father's martial arts?" 

Han Qi roared, and slashed down with the sword in his hand, actually cutting Huanyu's steel knife into two pieces. The sword turned and went straight to Huanyu's heart. Seeing this, Huanchong, who was standing by, covered his ears and dodged forward, slapping Han Qi with one palm. Seeing this, I immediately gathered my internal strength and connected my palms. When our palms collided, I felt a heat in my chest, and was knocked back several steps by Huanchong's palm. Huanchong wanted to move forward again, but was stopped by Han Qi's sword. Huanyu escaped by chance and dodged to the side panting. Only then did I see that Huanchong's ears were chopped off by Han Qi, and blood was slowly dripping down his cheek, making him look even more gloomy and terrifying. 

"Han Qi, your mother told you to stay here and guard the gym, why are you here for no reason?" 

Huan Chong looked at Han Qi with a fake smile, while Han Qi glared at him angrily, raised his sword with blue flames, pointed it at Huan Chong and said with gritted teeth. 

"You bastard, how can you forget the hatred for insulting your mother? Look at the sword!" 

Seeing Han Qi draw his sword and rush forward again, Huan Chong hurriedly retreated, and at the same time took out a few spells from his bosom and threw them at the two of us. A thick fog immediately flashed in front of my eyes. I knew that these two guys had ulterior motives and hurried to grab Han Qi, but Han Qi was eager for revenge and turned around to chase Huan Chong. After a while, I heard the sound of fierce fighting coming from the thick fog. While I was looking left and right, a real energy bullet shot from the thick fog towards my head. I hurriedly dodged, but felt a pain in my lower back. I turned my head and saw Huan Yu looking at me with a sly smile on his face. I returned a palm but hit nothing. I turned around and saw Huan Yu's erratic body. I sent another palm, but hit the air again. I was annoyed and was hit by several real energy bullets he fired. My internal organs seemed to be turned over in a circle. 

Damn it, this scumbag was afraid of Han Qi's [Qi Yan Jue] and was playing dirty tricks here. I dodged for a while, but who knew that Huanyu would become more aggressive when he saw me giving in, and he was going to activate the hateful [Soul-sucking Talisman] again. This time he was afraid that Han Qi would come to disrupt the situation again, so he wisely chose to activate it from a distance. I felt my limbs start to be sucked into an unclear secret place in the thick fog. I knew that Han Qi was chasing Huan Chong now. If I was sucked into the talisman, I would definitely meet the King of Hell in advance. But now everything was hazy in front of me. I had to find the location where Huanyu released the talisman immediately to interrupt him quickly. My mind was spinning rapidly, and suddenly I remembered that night when I peeped at my mother and Qin Dang in the military tent... 

"Haha, let's see how you can run away now!" 

Huanyu's laughter made my scalp tingle, but I would not surrender. I silently recited the exercises and activated the [Qingxin Mantra]. The thick fog that had been lingering in front of my eyes gradually dissipated, and my vision became clearer. As expected, I saw Huanyu, who was waiting for me to be trapped under an old tree about thirty or forty meters away, with a smug look on his face. At this distance, the suction power of the [Soul-Absorbing Talisman] was far less terrifying than when it was face to face. I exerted force with one palm, evenly concentrating the internal force of the Wave-Splitting Palm at one point, pretending to be at a loss while aiming at the big tree in front of Huanyu. When my body was about to show signs of uncontrollable tension, I When I was at a certain distance, I aimed at the tree and fiercely sent out my internal force. The Wave-Splitting Palm is a penetrating fist and kick technique. With my long-term internal force, this palm directly penetrated the thick tree trunk and hit Huanyu's heart through the trunk. Huanyu cried out and vomited blood. The talisman was completely destroyed. His whole short body was hit several meters away by my palm like a deflated ball and fell to the ground. He staggered to get up, holding his chest, but before he could stand firmly, a large stream of bright red blood flowed out from the corners of his mouth uncontrollably. He fell to the ground again with a plop and fainted. 

"Watch out, little bastard!" 

I was just about to take a step forward to understand the evil universe, but I felt a chill behind me. Huan Chong jumped down from the tree trunk behind my head without knowing when, and the powerful true energy in his hand hit me directly on the top of my head. I felt a splitting headache, and my head sank to the ground. A large amount of blood immediately flowed into my eyes from the top of my head. I barely opened my red eyes, only to see Huan Chong looking at me viciously, and this time I actually felt a familiar breath on him. 

"You...you actually colluded with those evil cultivators and demons!" 

That's right, I felt the same demonic energy from him as from Tu Weiyang! Seeing the blood all over the steel knife in his hand, I knew that Han Qi was probably under his spell. Moreover, the strong demonic energy emanating from Huan Chong's body became stronger and stronger. The lavender demonic energy gradually replaced the true energy he had taken from Fairy Pei, and it seemed even more sinister and terrifying. 

"Humph! Cultivate Taoism, cultivate Taoism. Even if I cultivate for my whole life, I am still just an ordinary person. Even if I seize the Tianzong's skills, I cannot use them all for myself. I might as well turn myself into a demon. Hahahaha!!!" 

Huan Chong's fly eyes gradually lost their pupils, which were originally as big as peanuts. Large patches of purple-red filled his eye sockets. He licked his scarlet tongue, turned his palm, and a purple demonic energy gathered in his palm and slapped me on the top of my head. 

"Go to hell!" 

I closed my eyes willingly. I was too reckless. I remembered that my mother had repeatedly told me not to be aggressive in battle. I insisted on saving Guyuan City alone, but ended up being tricked by the Huan brothers. I also remembered that Fairy Pei had also told me to be careful of the Huan brothers before she left. I'm afraid that when they were in Luojing, the two brothers were so erratic that they had already established a bridge with the demon clan. Anyway, I, Meng Feng, am not a person who can understand the truth. Thinking of this, it would be better for me to die in battle like Qin Dang. At least I would have a good reputation of being buried in a horse's hide. If I die in such a remote place, I'm afraid no one will bury my body... 

"Buzz!!" 

Just when I thought that no one would come to rescue me this time, my eyes suddenly lit up, and an invisible barrier suddenly appeared in front of me, blocking Huan Chong's fierce palm. The barrier was covered with Taoist runes and spells, and I clearly felt a familiar fairy power spreading out from my mouth, enveloping every meridian in my body. Is this... the breath of Fairy Pei? 

Huan Chong never thought that he would encounter the formation of the human sect here. He was blinded by the dazzling light and covered his eyes. He retreated wailingly. The demonic power in his body was actually separated bit by bit by the white blindness released by the formation. Finally, the true energy taken from Fairy Pei was gradually sucked back into the formation, leaving only the purple-black demonic energy still shrouding him. 

"Ahhhhhh!!! That stinky bitch...actually put the [Great Salvation Technique] in your body, damn it, damn it!!!" 

I saw Huan Chong covering his eyes and howling like a headless fly. His whole body was steaming as if he had fallen into boiling water. A large amount of true energy was completely stripped out of his body and finally slowly recovered into the formation. I didn't know what the [Great Pudu Technique] he mentioned was, I only knew that this formation actually protected me at the critical moment. I suddenly remembered that when Fairy Pei and I were visiting the temple fair in Luojing, we accidentally did something shameful and erotic in the woods. At that time, Fairy Pei seemed to have lowered her head and spit something into my mouth. I didn't expect that it was the true energy contained in the formation... Master's wife, I didn't expect that you have always been concerned about the safety of your disciple... 

Seeing the formation around me gradually dissipating, I knew I couldn't waste the opportunity. Thinking of the evil deeds of the Huan brothers and their repeated attempts to get their hands on my mother, I felt that I had to enforce justice. I concentrated my internal energy on my palm and was about to slap Huan Chong, who was covering his eyes and howling, to end his life. Just as I was about to strike with the Wave-Splitting Palm, I heard Huan Yu's roar. 

"How dare you harm my brother's life!" 

I turned around in a hurry, and saw Huanyu staggering from behind me. From his appearance, I knew that he was seriously injured by my palm strike. His face was black and bleeding from all seven orifices. Han Qi's sword had almost cut off his shoulder before. He seemed to be at the end of his rope and was struggling to death. 

"Well, let's die together!" 

Killing one is killing, killing two is also killing, not to mention that they are all unkind and unjust people. My eyes were bloodshot, thinking of these two beasts who tried every means to humiliate Pei Fairy in Ziwei Temple, the murderous intent in my heart became stronger, and I turned around and smashed towards Huanyu with a wave-breaking palm. Huanyu was hit in the center of my palm, and a mouthful of thin blood spurted out of his mouth and spit on my face. I roared and exerted force on my palm. This palm was enough to break his brittle bones and tendons, and his heart and liver were torn. Who knew that when I hit Huanyu with my palm, there was a sudden roar from behind. Turning back, I saw Huanchong with disheveled hair and cold eyes. , was actually absorbing Huanyu's internal energy through me. As Huanyu's originally short limbs gradually turned into a skinny corpse with bulging eyes and limbs, Huanchong behind him suddenly had muscles all over his body, and his bones made a creaking sound that made people feel scared. He was originally short like a dwarf, but now his body was constantly bulging, the skin all over his body was bursting, and the muscles were gathering together bit by bit, like a small meat mountain. I was so scared that my hair was counting down. In my life, I have never seen a person grow taller and stronger in an instant. I was terrified and couldn't move. 

On the other side, Huan Chong had become three times stronger than a calf, and had become a humanoid monster. He let out a violent roar towards the sky, scaring all the birds in the forest away and large leaves falling from the trees. Huan Chong swung his fist, which was three sizes bigger than my head, and punched me, who was unarmed. I dodged in a hurry but was still hit on the shoulder. It felt like being slapped by a mad bear. Instantly, a sharp pain spread throughout my body. When I looked again... , one of my arms was actually broken directly. I didn't care about the broken arm and ran backwards, but I couldn't outrun Huan Chong who was like a big black bear. I didn't run a few steps before he was grabbed by the waist. At this time, a flying sword flew out from the bushes and hit Huan Chong's arm. Huan Chong threw me away in pain. I looked back in embarrassment and saw Han Qi, who was also covered in blood, holding the tree trunk with one hand and looking at me breathlessly. He pointed to the small path beside him and spit out a mouthful of blood foam. 

"Junior Brother Meng... hurry up... Guyuan City has been lost, and the demon army is heading to Xiaoguan... hurry up and get the Qin army to prepare for defense..." 

"Then what will you do?" 

I know that if I turn around, he will probably stay here forever. How can I, Meng Feng, sacrifice my senior brother in exchange for a humiliating life? 

"If I don't get rid of this evil creature, I, Han Qi, will live a life worse than death. Today is the perfect time to put an end to the root of this!" 

He finished speaking and didn't wait for me to open my mouth again. His eyes suddenly widened, and a ball of burning energy was like a fire that lit up the entire forest. The extremely hot breath instantly lingered around him, and I could even smell the smell of his skin being burned. 

"Brother! No!" 

Han Qi smiled at me sadly, stood up, threw away the sword in his hand, pulled out a scimitar from his waist, and murmured while stroking the grim blade with one hand. 

"Father, you told Qi'er to protect mother in your dream, but I was incompetent and failed to do so. Today, I will show my filial piety by killing this beast with the precious sword you gave me before you died, to avenge my deep hatred!" 

Han Qi tightly grasped the precious sword, his eyes bared, and he rushed towards Huanchong like a ball of fire. Huanchong shook his arm that was almost cut off by the sword, opened his big mouth and roared to the sky, his voice was like thunder, and he ran towards Han Qi. I was stunned and unable to move for a while. Unexpectedly, Huanchong glanced at me who had not left yet, and his pair of white eyes without pupils turned around and turned towards me. I was so scared that my face turned pale, and I hurried to run, but I fell to the ground with a garlic under my feet. , I turned over and saw Huan Chong's iron fist coming straight down. Han Qi, who was standing by, quickly swung his knife to intercept it. He chopped Huan Chong's cheek with his knife, and a large stream of purple-red blood spurted out like a waterfall. Huan Chong cried out and crashed into a tree nearby, breaking the towering tree. He turned around and punched me again, this time with full force. No matter how Han Qi chopped at Huan Chong, who was nearly three meters tall, he couldn't change his target. 

It's over, it's over now... 

I thought I was the hero who could stand up, but in the end I found myself a bear, a bear that dragged down others, because when I opened my eyes again, Han Qi had stretched out his limbs to block me, and Huan Chong punched him in the already weak chest, and at the same time, Han Qi's scimitar was firmly stuck in Huan Chong's eye socket. Huan Chong wailed and covered his eyes in pain, turning around in circles. The evil spirit that had been lingering on his body evaporated little by little, and finally turned back to the original dwarf. One of his eyes was stabbed by Han Qi, and blood was flowing all over his face. His body was covered with scars. He looked at Han Qi who was still holding on and me hiding behind Han Qi with a ferocious look, gritted his teeth, growled, and turned around to run for his life. 

"Meng Feng, just wait for me, sooner or later I will settle the score with you!" 

"Ahem... ahem..." 

As soon as Huan Chong ran away, Han Qi fell to the ground. I hurriedly climbed up and helped him up. I found that his chest was completely sunken, and even the blood he spit out was dark purple. It was obvious that his heart was pierced. He looked at me, gritted his teeth, raised his hand, and trembled as he took out a book of martial arts from his chest and handed it to me. My eyes were soaked with tears, but I could still see the big words [Pingyang Jue] on it. I was shocked. How could Pingyang Jue be in his hand? Before I could ask, I saw Han Qi spitting blood and mumbling. 

"...Junior brother...this technique...is divided into two books. It was created by the Taoist leader...Ji Yao. One is kept by Tian Zong...and the other is kept by Ren Zong...ah...only when the two are combined into one...can the true power be displayed..." 

I quickly used my Qi to heal him, and asked in confusion. 

"Brother, how did you know that I practice this technique?" 

Han Qi was breathing rapidly and his face was pale. He held my hand and shook his head. 

"Me too... Today I saw that your palm technique includes the blessing of Yang energy, and I realized that you have learned the [Ping Yang Jue]... I followed you all the way because I was afraid that the Huan family brothers would cause trouble again... But I... cough... I also found that the side effects of my mother are getting better little by little... Hehe... I think you have already learned the [Qing Xin Mantra]." 

I felt ashamed. Seeing that Han Qi already knew about the relationship between Fairy Pei and me, I couldn't help but feel guilty towards Han Qi. However, it didn't matter at this point. 

"Meng... Junior Brother Meng, I don't know... where you learned the [Pingyang Jue], I just want to tell you... cough... this person... has evil intentions... you must not let him stay..." 

I was shocked after hearing this. I stole the [Pingyang Jue] from Qin Dang, and he taught it to me. How could this be possible? Seeing my surprise, Han Qi coughed a few more times, and his breath was almost gone, as if he had reached the end of his rope. 

"[Ping Yang Jue] is a technique to gather 'Yang'. This technique and the technique to gather 'Yin' [Qing Xin Mantra]...are mutually reinforcing and mutually exclusive. Once you have mastered one of them, you must not learn the other, otherwise...otherwise, at the very least, you will experience hallucinations, often faint when practicing...cough...at the worst...you will lose all your Yang energy..." 

My teeth were chattering as I listened, and my head felt cold. Qin Dang! Did Qin Dang teach me the [Pingyang Jue] even though he knew I had mastered the [Qingxin Mantra]? My brain was spinning rapidly. The scene of Qin Dang deliberately tempting me to learn this technique that night in Luojing? The cold smiles he showed me while teaching me the technique in the room... and the constant coma, the woman he wanted to violate, the slap marks on my face... Why did my mother deliberately distance herself from me those days, and why did my mother suddenly ask me in the military tent yesterday whether I had secretly learned the [Pingyang Jue]? All the tiny pieces of information that I had not noticed, and the scenes that I had not investigated, all jumped into my mind. Qin Dang! This bastard, he had been plotting against me from the beginning! No wonder I could never get past the first level when practicing this technique! 

"Brother Han, stop talking and go back to the barracks with my junior brother. My mother will definitely find a way to save you." 

I collected my chaotic thoughts and quickly supported Han Qi to carry him on my back, but Han Qi waved his hand, let go of my arm and smiled miserably. 

"Don't waste your energy... Go away, my heart is broken. To be honest, I can even feel, cough... my ribs piercing my lungs, hehe... Junior Brother Meng, if I close my eyes, I'm afraid I won't wake up... cough... Before I die, I hope you can promise me one thing..." 

My eyes tightened, tears welled up in my eyes, my heart felt like a heavy weight was pressing on me, my blood was boiling, I held his already cold hand tightly, looked at him and said firmly. 

"Brother, please feel free to speak up. I will keep my promise!" 

Han Qi's mouth was straight, his eyes were focused as much as possible, he took out a plum branch from his arms with great effort, and reluctantly handed it to me with trembling hands. His breathing had almost stopped, and I could only hear the characters squeezed out of his throat. 

"Give this to my mother...I will...ahem...tell her...Qier...misses her..." 

After Han Qi finished speaking, his arms dropped, a tear fell from the corner of his eye, and he died. He never closed his eyes until his death, but his pupils stared at the plum branch in my hand. In his heart, I am afraid he never forgave his "incompetence", and never forgot the beautiful figure standing under the plum tree and looking at him with a smile... 

My heart felt like it was being stabbed by a knife, like a lump stuck in my throat. I wanted to cry out loud but couldn't. I could only stand up with tears in my eyes and found a secluded place not far away to bury Han Qi. I bowed again and again in front of this nameless mound, put the scimitar that was his father's relic in my waist, put the second level of [Pingyang Jue] in my arms, turned around, found the frightened horse, turned around, and headed straight for Xiaoguan. 

Qin Dang, Huan Chong, I want you two to die!
