Chapter 1461
"They've called a truce, already giving in this quickly? The Mangshan Snake Demon King won't do." Xinran Zhanglao mocked.
That this war has reached this point and can still be halted—no wonder it's the Monster Race.
These demon beasts still have brains; at a critical moment, they know to withdraw, or rather, for their own interests they must cease fighting—continuing would be detrimental to them.
The Mu Long family has already begun invading, seeking to take root in the Mangshan Mountain Range; their aim is not simple—they want to take root in the Mangshan Mountain Range, then in Cangzhou, and thereafter look to Cangzhou. If they succeed in taking root, then uprooting them will not be so easy.
The first step is to stop them; that is also the fundamental reason they finally ceased hostilities. Qinglong Daoren naturally sensed a stir and knew why they had called a truce.
"It's not that he can't, but that he is very rational; at this juncture continuing the fight would bring him no benefit, and moreover, he lacks confidence in subduing these demon kings."
"If Xu Kongwang doesn't hold back Bai Xinlan, he won't have a chance; if the fighting continues, the Mangshan Snake Demon King's odds of victory are high—he grows braver with each battle, and his strength keeps rising in combat. Once he gets past this step, those three demon kings are nothing to worry about."
"If the Mu Long family stays out of it and Xu Kongwang doesn't betray him, he could succeed; just kill one demon king and the others will surely be terrified and submit."
"What a pity, things turned out contrary to our wishes."
Compared to these demon kings, the Mu Long family is even more dangerous and deadly; we must absolutely not let them take root.
This is the consequence of cooperating with the Mu Long family; they will inevitably target us and then backlash.
Mu Longwenlong has stirred the masses, found a suitable opportunity; this timing is excellent—it's their moment to act, with a very high chance of success.
Qinglong Daoren still thought he had let the Mu Long family succeed; if so, he wouldn't mind nauseating the Mu Long family, making them lose some people. But now it seems he doesn't need to act—the Mangshan Snake Demon King and company have already reached an agreement.
"The Mu Long family might suffer heavily—this would be good." Qinglong Daoren would be pleased to see that scene; then he wouldn't mind intervening to send the Mu Long family packing.
Outside the Mangshan Mountain Range.
The Tian Du Men disciples have already gathered a portion outside, not entering the Mangshan Mountain Range, but standing guard outside as a precaution.
The leader is the Tian Du Men's Wu Mie Zhenren, plus another woman—a stern-faced woman full of killing intent, unapproachable.
No one dares to approach her, not even a step; even the Tian Du Men disciples dare not come within three meters.
"Second Senior Sister, just got the latest news: Mu Long family members have entered the Mangshan Mountain Range, intending to take root there directly. The Mu Long family's treacherous heart is not dead; they also covet our Cangzhou."
"We cannot let them succeed; we must stop them."
The woman called Second Senior Sister is the Emei Peak's head, the Emei True Person, holding a sword.
The blade flashed with cold light; Technique radiated from her whole body, and the nearby disciples all retreated, not wanting to be wounded by the Technique emanating from her.
Undiscriminating Technique attacks will wound anyone lacking tact.
"Hmph, Mu Long family, they still dare to come—my sword just longs for their blood."
Clang!
The blade was drawn; the Emei True Person's face full of killing intent, she gazed into the depths of the Mangshan Mountain Range.
Her eyes were icy, brimming with killing intent.
Last time the Mu Long family threw Tian Du Men into chaos, killing many disciples; among them, hers suffered the most, with several promising disciples dying silently. Investigation showed it was the Mu Long family's doing, and even a few disciples she highly regarded turned out to be Mu Long family members—how could she not be furious?
That time, she personally took action, sending them to the Western Paradise.
After that, the Emei True Person loathed anyone from the Mu Long family; any Mu Long family member would be killed without mercy.
"Second Senior Sister, calm down, calm down—now is not the time to act; the Mangshan Demon Palace's battle has ceased, and those demon beasts have sensed the danger, so let's first deal with the Mu Long family." Wu Mie Zhenren hurriedly gripped Second Senior Sister's hand, not daring to let go.
She knew very well Second Senior Sister's temper—she would indeed go alone, sword in hand, to stir up trouble for the Mu Long family.
This senior sister is bold to the point of recklessness; once angry, she throws caution to the wind.
Before setting out, the senior brother repeatedly urged her to keep an eye on Second Senior Sister; the senior brother was uneasy about Second Senior Sister, so he specifically had her keep watch.
"Junior sister, rest assured, senior sister won't act impulsively." The Emei True Person quickly calmed down and did not rush into the Mangshan Mountain Range.
Wu Mie Zhenren breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Second Senior Sister, you scared me to death. Though the Mu Long family is hateful, now is not the time for us to act; entering the Mangshan Mountain Range would draw the attention of the Mangshan Demon Palace's demon beasts, and now is not suitable for action."
"The senior brother ordered us merely to watch for those demon beasts from the Mangshan Demon Palace running out to wreak havoc in the human world; we were not told to enter the Mangshan Mountain Range."
The Emei True Person waved a hand: "All right, senior sister understands."
They neither acted impulsively nor entered the Mangshan Mountain Range; Wu Mie Zhenren remained uneasy, never letting Second Senior Sister out of his sight.
Inside the Mangshan Mountain Range.
Mu Longhai awaited the arrival of Elder Mu Longdi and the others; both were tense and worried.
The Mangshan Demon Palace's battle had ended, and they sensed danger.
That dangerous aura drew nearer step by step; the two exchanged a glance and immediately fled.
Boom—
A black shadow descended from the heavens, slamming hard onto the Windracing Eagle, which let out a mournful cry as its body plummeted to the ground.
The ground collapsed, and the Windracing Eagle's body instantly disintegrated, shattering to pieces.
Mu Longwenlong and Mu Longhai quickly separated, retreating from the attack; though they were still affected by the shock, they each flew back a hundred meters before stabilizing their stance.
Before they could even make out the situation in the deep pit, two figures appeared beside them.
Mu Longwenlong fled at once, but Mu Longhai was not so lucky—he encountered Diewumeng, who appeared before him, their eyes locking; in that instant of mutual gaze, Mu Longhai's eyes lost their focus.
Squelch—
The next moment, Mu Longhai's body was severed at the waist, upper and lower halves parting; then that inner elixir was swallowed, and his body followed suit.
It all happened in an instant, too fast—by the time Mu Longwenlong sensed it, it was already too late.
"Elder Mu Longhai."
Boom—
His voice had just sounded, his body flew out, Hei Hu threw a punch, the ferocity of the force, Mu Long Wen Long's fresh blood sprayed the void.
It fell directly before the sight of Mu Long and them appearing; other Demon Kings were about to move forward and attack to kill Nu Long Wen Long; Mu Long flew into a rage, directly attacked, and sent flying the Xu Kong Wang who wanted to kill.
Xu Kong Wang retreated, letting out a cold laugh: "Mu Long's Grand Elder, I never expected it to be you who came, heh heh heh."
The silhouettes of the Mang Mountain Snake King and others appeared one after another; the Mang Mountain Snake King who had just swallowed an inner elixir had his mouth corners curled up.
Other Demon Kings stood one by one behind the Mang Mountain Snake King, taking him as the leader.
