Chapter 19: Void Demon Tribulation

Meng Su looked at the sleeping Yanzhi, pulled out the ghost-head broadsword from his back, and placed it on his knees. He closed his eyes and sensed.

A faint sound of bells rang out. It sounded like the sound of wind chimes hanging under the eaves being blown by the wind. This sound was crisp and distant.

As the bell rang, those Void Demons seemed to be stimulated and began to run wildly toward Yanliujie. Although these Void Demons had no consciousness, their bodies were light and murderous. Their eyes were blood-red. One step per yard. Their fingers were thin and long.

In a large private room of Yuehongxiu, there were three young people, two men and one woman. The three were wearing bright red robes, with blood light faintly appearing in their eyes. Their complexions were snow-white, and they carried long swords on their backs. The leader was at the peak of the True Demon Realm, another was at the peak of the True Demon Realm, and one was at the high level of the True Demon Realm. But the cultivation system of the three was obviously different from Wu Linglong's; there was no demonic mist, only powerful blood energy.

The woman looked at the leading young man: "Senior brother, is this the Demon-Driving Bell?"

The leading young man had sword-like eyebrows and star-like eyes, quite handsome. The young man looked at the two and said: "Exactly, the treasure of the Mist Demon Sect. But the auxiliary bell is in my hands. They are anxious."

After speaking, he took out a string of bells from his arms; the bells were made of a string of bones. It carried a faint mist.

Another young man looked at the leading young man and said: "Senior brother, when I released my divine sense just now, I encountered a powerful divine sense in this courtyard, but this person is not from the Mist Demon Sect. Should we solve it in advance?"

This young man had a thin face. Small eyes, straight waist, looking very fierce.

"No need to pay attention to him, no need to cause more trouble. Unless he strikes first." The senior brother waved his hand.

Soon, the Void Demons, under the guidance of the bell, walked quickly and silently to Yanliujie. Yanliujie was suddenly filled with demonic Qi. A demonic mist shrouded the entire Yanliujie.

These Void Demons surrounded the entire Yuehongxiu. But they did not attack.

Suddenly, two thick mists flew from the distant starry sky. The mist danced and circled above Yanliujie, finally condensing into two young people, a man and a woman, dressed in black, with pitch-black eyes, and mist lingering all over their bodies.

The man was tall, with rough facial features, a pale complexion, and a bone bell in his hand. The woman was petite, with a cold face and a look of grief.

After the two stood still, they looked at the room of the three True Demons upstairs in Yuehongxiu, and the man spoke: "Xuezang, Xuecan, Xuexiaohua. You have crossed the line, this is not the territory of your Blood Demon Sect, hurry up and hand over the auxiliary Demon-Driving Bell. Once a sect war occurs, you will be the culprits."

"Wuliuyun, don't you try to confuse right and wrong here. The four major sects take turns to hold the Demon-Driving Bell, rotating every hundred years. Now the hundred years have passed, but you have been delaying handing over the Demon-Driving Bell. What is your intention?" The senior brother poked his head out of the window and said loudly.

"We have already reported this matter to the Demon Capital. The Shenyin Sect is killing our sect's cultivators under the slogan of subduing demons. We need the Demon-Driving Bell to control the Void Demons. The Demon Capital's approval will arrive soon. You are turning a deaf ear to the Demon Capital's instructions. Are you deliberately trying to provoke a war?" Wuliuyun replied.

"You want to deal with the Shenyin Sect, and we in the north also have to deal with demon beasts. We will not agree to your so-called proposal to use it for another hundred years. I believe the Demon Capital will have a decision. You hand over the main Demon-Driving Bell, and we will leave your Mist Demon Sect's territory immediately." Senior brother Xuezang replied.

"Pah, dignified True Demons, yet acting like thieves. If you don't hand over the auxiliary bell, you will be killed without mercy. You should bear the consequences. When the Demon Capital blames you, it will also be provoked by you." The petite woman from the Mist Demon Sect scolded.

"Wumiao, if you want to fight, then fight, don't put labels on us. We won't be afraid of you." The woman from the Blood Demon Sect, Xuexiaohua, replied.

The scolding between the few people across a wall and a courtyard did not use supernatural powers to hide their voices, so all the men and women in Yuehongxiu were awakened. But they dared not move. True Demons are born, blood flows everywhere, not to mention there are five True Demons now. And thousands of Void Demons.

Yanzhi was awakened just after waking up. She looked at Meng Su who was meditating on the floor, and felt at ease.

Yanzhi looked at the nervous Meng Su, hurriedly climbed out of bed, leaned on Meng Su's shoulder, and murmured in Meng Su's ear: "Brother, don't be nervous. How about I play a song for you?"

Meng Su nodded.

Hiding is useless; under a collapsed nest, there are no intact eggs. It is better to reveal his identity early. It will also make the warring parties have some scruples, after all, neither of them wants the other to have an extra strong reinforcement.

With a 'ding', the silent night was broken, and a cold, murderous piano sound popped out from under Yanzhi's fingers. Immediately followed by another sound, and slowly the piano sound became denser and denser. More and more urgent.

Meng Su looked at Yanzhi in surprise. Meng Su had heard this piece, and was even familiar with it; it was the famous ancient piece of that world: "Ambush from Ten Sides."

In this situation, it was quite fitting.

Once the piano sound came out, the surroundings were dead silent. Neither side spoke anymore. Both sides were confronting each other with swords drawn.

Soon the piano sound surged, and when "Ambush from Ten Sides" reached its climax, a strange sound carrying spiritual energy was hidden in the ordinary piano sound. This syllable carried a strange spiritual energy and formed a kind of supernatural power that flew secretly to the surroundings.

Soon, the Demon-Driving Bell of the Mist Demon Sect's senior brother Wuliuyun made an eerie clanging sound under the strike of this syllable. This strange syllable simultaneously flew to Meng Su's neighbor, knocking the auxiliary bell in Xuezang's hand.

The main bell and the auxiliary bell emitted a complete syllable.

Meng Su frowned slightly.

Countless Void Demons seemed to have received an order and suddenly moved.

The Void Demons began to attack indiscriminately. Wuliuyun and Wumiao were surrounded by countless Void Demons. The scene was filled with demonic Qi, and mist rolled. Some of them rushed to Yuehongxiu. They went straight for the three Blood Demon Sect cultivators.

The three Blood Demon Sect cultivators joined the battle.

The entire Yanliujie and Yuehongxiu courtyard were crowded with Void Demons.

The battlefield was filled with mist and blood. The killing intent was awe-inspiring, but there was no sound. There was only Yanzhi's piano sound at the scene.

Meng Su looked at Yanzhi beside him, picked up the broadsword on his knees, and stood up.

Yanzhi stopped playing, covered the strings with her hands, and the piano sound disappeared.

Yanzhi sighed: "Brother, how was my song 'Void Demon Tribulation'?"

Meng Su also sighed and said: "Void Demon Tribulation, it is also my tribulation, why did you choose me?"

Yanzhi: "Involuntary."

Meng Su: "Where did the real Yanzhi go?"

Yanzhi: "Everything is real. I am Yanzhi."

Meng Su: "Including you liking me?"

Yanzhi: "Including. You are the greatest truth of my life."

Meng Su: "I am just a beggar, and my cultivation is extremely low."

Yanzhi: "But you are that legend. Everything is void, only you are real."

Meng Su: "Where did Xiao Hua go?"

Yanzhi: "He was not from this realm originally. Naturally, he returned to his own realm."

Meng Su: "You found the wrong person. I am nothing."

After speaking, Meng Su jumped down from the window and joined the battle. The sword light flew up, and the sound of the sword rings surged. Meng Su rushed left and right in the countless Void Demon army, his killing intent awe-inspiring. The demonic seed in his Qi Sea began to grow, and the demonic mist in his body began to solidify.

Yanzhi stood up, held the piano in her hands, tears sliding down her face, Yanzhi murmured: "Brother, please believe that I love you. I really want to be that silly, ignorant Yanzhi. Let you protect me for a lifetime, but you are destined to be that legend, and I am just a small piano demon."

At this time, two young girls appeared silently in the room. The two girls looked exactly the same, obviously twin sisters. The two bowed to Yanzhi: "Saintess, can we return to the sect?"

Yanzhi looked at Meng Su, who was surrounded by countless Void Demons, and could no longer hold back, covered her mouth, and cried loudly.

Meng Su, who was fighting, felt something in his heart and looked up at the upstairs.

Yanzhi felt Meng Su's gaze, and a sweet smile appeared on her tear-stained face. ===== CHAPTER 20 =====
