Chapter 35: Five Elements Fire

Meng Su, Yanzhi, and Mu Yi walked out of the thatched hut. Meng Su saw that there were hundreds of other thatched huts around. These huts were on a grassland in the middle of the forest, and in the middle of the grassland was a small lake, with beautiful scenery and abundant spiritual energy.

Seeing the Wood Demon Sect cultivators who looked like savages, Meng Su felt sad in his heart. Now the outside world was the Demon Capital's world. To lead the Five Elements Sect out of the current world, how easy would that be? The Demon Capital had millions of Demon cultivators and countless Void Demons. With just these few thousand people, when would they be able to kill their way out of the Emerald Forest?

Sensing Meng Su's depression, Yanzhi quietly squeezed Meng Su's hand. Meng Su felt Yanzhi's encouragement. His heart settled slightly; only by constantly becoming stronger was the hard truth.

Just as Meng Su was looking around, Mu Yi's expression suddenly froze. A flower petal drifted from the void to Mu Yi. Mu Yi reached out to catch it, and the petal turned transparent in Mu Yi's hand. An image appeared inside. Seven or eight cultivators were standing sneakily at the edge of the Emerald Forest, peering into the forest.

Meng Su saw that the direction these people were standing in was not the desert they came from; it should have been from another direction. Meng Su was about to ask when Mu Yi said angrily: "Shameless things, willing to be running dogs for the Demon Capital. Coming to provoke us again and again, do they really think my Wood Demon Sect is easy to bully?"

Mu Yi stuck his wooden staff into the mud, and the staff rapidly grew green leaves and bloomed flowers, and the pollen drifted toward the depths of the forest.

Within two breaths, a wooden arrow flew from the distance of the forest, stopping in front of Mu Yi. A man appeared before Mu Yi. The man was also wearing animal skins, tall and majestic, with a cold expression. He was actually at the Demon Saint realm.

Following the wooden arrow was a dandelion seed. After the seed vanished, a young girl stood before Mu Yi. The girl was beautiful and lively, full of youth. She was also a Demon Saint. Was this the foundation of the Wood Demon Sect?

The man and the woman bowed to Mu Yi: "Mu Li, Mu Mian pay respects to the Sect Master."

Mu Yi pointed at Meng Su: "This is the new Demon Lord of our Reincarnation Sect, and also the host of the Reincarnation Seed. From now on, he is our master."

Mu Li was the tall man, and Mu Mian was the little girl. The two looked young, but to be able to cultivate to the Demon Saint realm, they were at least a hundred years old, if not a thousand.

Mu Yi pointed at the few sneaky cultivators outside and said: "The Fire Demon Sect has repeatedly harassed us; this is unbearable. I have decided to counterattack and give them a taste of their own medicine."

Mu Li glanced into the distance: "Sect Master, rest assured, just a few small fish, I will go and return."

Mu Yi: "I haven't even put these small fry in my eyes. Not returning a gift is impolite; I plan to kill my way into the Fire Demon Domain and give them a taste of their own medicine."

Mu Mian: "Sect Master, the Fire Element Sect's attributes are inherently opposed to ours, and after they defected to the Demon Capital, their vitality has recovered. There should be more than five Demon Saints. There are hundreds of Demon Gods. Moreover, the Fire Demon Domain will suppress our cultivation. I suggest waiting until we contact the Water Element Sect before making plans."

Mu Li: "Sister Mu Mian is right, I hope the Sect Master will think twice."

Mu Yi: "If we don't show them some color, they will harass us endlessly. My mind is made up. I will sneak into the Fire Demon Sect alone and hunt down one of their Demon Saints to reduce their strength. If I don't return, Mu Li will be the Sect Master of the Wood Demon Sect; you must lead everyone well to glorify the Wood Demon Sect."

Mu Li: "The Sect Master shoulders the responsibility of revival; how can you easily take risks? Let me go alone."

Mu Yi: "You are the hope of our Wood Demon Sect, a Century Demon Child, how can you take risks? I am still the Sect Master; are you preparing to disobey orders?"

Mu Li and Mu Mian: "..."

Meng Su stepped forward: "May I ask Sect Master Mu, why do you think these Fire Demon Sect members came here at this time?"

Mu Yi: "They should be here for the Reincarnation Seed."

Meng Su: "Is the Reincarnation Seed very important to them?"

Mu Yi: "It's more than important. You haven't seen the power of the Reincarnation Demon Lord. Once the Life and Death Power is unleashed, it can destroy a domain in the blink of an eye. They have long coveted the Reincarnation Seed. But the Emerald Forest is guarded by the Demon Venerable. They have never been able to succeed."

Meng Su: "If I appear in the outside world, do you think they will dispatch Demon Saints to intercept and kill me?"

Mu Yi: "What do you mean...? No, I don't agree. You are the Demon Lord, the hope for the revival of the Reincarnation Sect. How can we use you as bait?"

Meng Su: "I don't fight battles I'm not sure of. Do you think that when my sister and I are on the road back to the Heavenly Sound Sect, with our cultivation, how many Demon Saints will they dispatch?"

Mu Li: "One is enough."

"Then how many Demon Saints do we have now?"

Mu Mian clapped her hands: "This plan is excellent. We have the Void Lotus, three against one, and we're not in the Fire Demon Sect's lair; this Demon Saint will definitely die."

Mu Li: "Even if they dispatch two Demon Saints, we still have the victory in our grasp. I think it's doable."

Meng Su was born in a modern civilized society; the concept of concentrating superior forces to defeat the enemy one by one had long been deeply rooted in his heart.

Yanzhi: "Even if three come, we still have the power to fight. Those at the early stage of Demon Saint may not be my match. If they all come out, we will use the Void Lotus to escape and go raid their lair."

Mu Yi was still deep in thought. Meng Su: "Sect Master Mu, trust me. This method will definitely make the Fire Demon Sect bleed. One battle can bring a hundred years of peace; even if it's a bit risky, it's worth it."

Mu Yi: "How long can you hold out under the attack of a Demon Saint?"

Before Meng Su could answer, Yanzhi preempted: "With me here, they can't hurt my brother."

Mu Yi gritted her teeth: "Fine, let's do it."

Just as those seven or eight Fire Demon Sect cultivators were sneakily trying to enter the Emerald Forest, the vine thorns in front suddenly parted. Meng Su and the other three walked out.

The leading cultivator was suddenly startled, seeing that there were only four people including Meng Su. He couldn't help but look into the forest, asking with a puzzled face: "Where is Mu Yi?"

"Is Sect Master Mu needed to deal with these small fry? I am enough alone." Meng Su said disdainfully.

The leading cultivator was at the peak of the Demon God realm. The seven or eight cultivators behind were all at the early-to-middle stage of Demon God.

Hearing Meng Su's provocation, the leading cultivator was furious: "A mere True Demon, daring to be so arrogant, really thinking that just because you got the Reincarnation Seed you are invincible in the world? You have to have the life to grow up."

After speaking, the leading cultivator shook his body, and a palm slapped toward Meng Su.

Meng Su gathered his palm to meet the leading cultivator's palm. The cultivator showed a disdainful smile: "Seeking death."

Just as Meng Su's palm was about to make contact with the leading cultivator's palm, a light blue flame suddenly appeared on the leading cultivator's palm. This flame was piercingly hot, as if it had ignited the air. Meng Su suddenly felt uncomfortable in his body.

Fire-type Demon Power has a restraining effect on Wood-type Spirit Power.

Suddenly, a crisp sound of a zither rang out. The leading cultivator was like being hit by a heavy blow, and the blue flame on his palm was shattered.

Meng Su's palm made contact with the leading cultivator's palm. The massive force set off a wave of air around the two.

Meng Su was knocked back four or five steps by the leading cultivator's palm, while the leading cultivator didn't move an inch.

But there were tiny roots in the void connecting to the leading cultivator's palm. The roots connected the two like silk threads. Meng Su only stood firmly for an instant; the roots contracted, and Meng Su appeared before the leading cultivator again.

A palm slapped toward the leading cultivator's chest.

The leading cultivator was furious, throwing a punch to meet Meng Su's palm. The fist emitted a scorching blue flame.

Another sound of a zither, and the flame on the leading cultivator's fist was shattered. Fist and palm intersected. Meng Su was knocked back three or four steps again, but soon Meng Su appeared before the leading cultivator again, another palm.

Seeing that his life-bound Demon Art could not be unleashed, and he couldn't do anything to Meng Su with just strength, the leading cultivator was annoyed.

He drew the short blade from his body. With a shake, a hazy blue fire appeared on the short blade, and he slashed toward Meng Su's palm. ===== CHAPTER 36 =====
