Chapter 132: Subduing the Scorpion Demon and Counter-Calculating Song Rufeng

The stars were dense, and the night in the valley was somewhat cold.

The Second Leader and his group, who were originally waiting for the First Leader to return, huddled together and started snoring.

Heng Xian walked out of the room with his hands behind his back, looked around, and then walked step by step toward the First Leader's room.

That scorpion demon Tao Sanniangzi was currently staying inside.

From a distance, through the window light, he could see a slender figure seemingly combing her hair.

Heng Xian paused for a moment, rubbed his chin, and pondered the lines to deal with this demon.

Just then, a rustling sound came from the pigpen next door.

Heng Xian glanced over in surprise and immediately hid to the side.

The sound in the pigpen grew louder, and then a black pig bit through the pigpen door rope and crawled out, walked a few steps, weirdly transformed into a burly black man, grinned, and walked toward the First Leader's room with a swagger.

Even pigs have become demons?!

And it ran to see the scorpion demon?

Heng Xian thought for a moment, tapped his feet, and flashed onto the roof of the First Leader's room,

then, suppressing his aura, lifted a tile.

He saw Tao Sanniangzi and the pig demon sitting face to face below. Tao Sanniangzi asked: "Is the news true?"

The pig demon said: "I saw it with my own eyes; that Great King landed in this Hundred-Mile Withered Marsh, and wherever he passed, demon aura permeated three hundred miles,

and all the flowers, trees, snakes, insects, rats, and ants benefited.

My little pig self also gained cultivation at that time! Afterward, the Great King traveled east and went to a very distant place!

By the way, do you know about the Great King Cow here?"

Tao Sanniangzi nodded and said: "That Great King Cow who exerts pressure within two hundred miles and forbids people within two hundred miles from eating beef because he is a bull who gained the Dao?"

The pig demon nodded: "That's right! That Great King Cow went to kneel and worship the moment he heard the news.

Not only him, but the nearby Great King Dog and Great King Bird all went without exception!

It is said that all the demons who went received the Great King's guidance, their demon bodies were sublimated, and their demon power advanced a step further."

Tao Sanniangzi said excitedly: "I heard the news and specifically rushed to worship, passing through here."

The pig demon flattered: "Sanniangzi has profound cultivation; this trip will definitely be valued by that Great King..."

On the roof, Heng Xian thought for a moment, Great King? Demon King? Damn!

No wonder that fox demon in Weiwu County was so arrogant; it turned out a Demon King had appeared nearby!

In the Tianyuan Sect's *Record of Demon Classics*, it is explicitly recorded that when a Demon King appears in a place, ten thousand demons will inevitably come to join, demon aura will soar to the sky, and it will bring disaster to one side!

And a demon worthy of being called a Demon King is at least a demon creature that has withstood nine thunder punishments and reached the Nascent Soul stage!

Although the demon race is harder to cultivate than humans, once they succeed, few cultivators of the same level can be their opponents, relying on their thick skin and flesh,

and if you add the demon race's innate divine abilities, then only a Transformation Deity expert can completely subdue a Nascent Soul Demon King!

Heng Xian frowned; if this was true, he could understand why Ke Zhenhai was controlled.

It was estimated that Song Rufeng wouldn't be able to handle this mission either!

Whatever, he would finish him once first!

At this time, Tao Sanniangzi in the room below said: "Since you have gained cultivation, why do you still hide in this mountain thief den and be a pig? Go and join the Great King!"

The pig demon was stunned: "Oh! I'm used to it; if Sanniangzi hadn't mentioned it, I wouldn't have remembered. Look at my pig brain!"

As he spoke, he ran out the door with a "huff-huff," transformed back into a pig, looked at the pigpen with nostalgia, and ran straight to the east.

In the room, Tao Sanniangzi sighed, then suddenly turned cold: "Who? Come out!"

Heng Xian walked in from the door leisurely and poured himself a cup of tea.

Tao Sanniangzi looked at him coldly: "You have guts, coming to my place in the middle of the night?"

Heng Xian sat down and took a sip of tea: "You're good-looking, so you don't allow people to come and see? You're a scorpion demon, don't tell me you'll be shy?"

Tao Sanniangzi was startled, then a long brown hook extended from behind her buttocks. As soon as it appeared, the whole room was filled with a pink, pungent smell: "Aren't you afraid I'll eat you?"

Heng Xian said: "You don't have the ability!"

Tao Sanniangzi squinted: "You say I don't have the ability?"

Heng Xian looked at her small belly: "You failed your tribulation, your inner core has cracks, and at this time your body is in unbearable pain. If you use this hook, even if you sting me to death, you will die yourself!"

"You..." Tao Sanniangzi was startled and quickly retreated: "I underwent the thunder tribulation, basically no one knows, and no one knows that my inner core has cracks. How did you know?"

Heng Xian looked at the hexagram and said: "Why are there so many whys in the world? I also know you are going to join the Demon King, praying for the Demon King to save you,

but the Demon King is not a good person. If your body is fine, you can work for the Demon King, and he will naturally take you in.

But with this broken body of yours, you'll go wherever you go, it's all in vain!"

Tao Sanniangzi's body trembled slightly, and her face turned pale.

Heng Xian took out two bottles of pills: "This is the Fourth-Grade pill 'Three-Part Replenishing Yuan Pill' used by cultivators and the 'Strange Fierce Union Pill' specifically for poisoning and playing with women!

These two medicines have nothing to do with demons, but very few people in the world know that if they are taken together, they can just happen to repair the demon core!"

Tao Sanniangzi was suspicious: "Why do you want to help me?"

Heng Xian approached her and looked into her eyes: "Because you have Yuan Dan cultivation, and I want you to help me kill someone!"

Tao Sanniangzi didn't talk nonsense, picked up the two bottles of medicine, and swallowed them all at once. Then her body turned, and she transformed into a huge scorpion with a flowery back, lying on the ground, motionless.

Even though Heng Xian pretended to be calm, this appearance made him feel a bit hair-raising.

After a full stick of incense, the big scorpion transformed back into the delicate Tao Sanniangzi, her face full of joy, and she bowed to Heng Xian: "The inner core has been repaired by more than half. Benefactor, tell me who to kill!"

"No rush, wait for my summons!" Heng Xian walked out the door with his hands behind his back.

"This little demon will be there whenever called." Tao Sanniangzi bowed respectfully.

Heng Xian returned to the Righteous Gathering Hall and sat cross-legged to meditate.

He waited for about half a stick of incense.

A rumbling sound came from outside, like many people riding some kind of mount and galloping over.

The Second Leader and his group were suddenly awakened, looked at each other, and hurriedly ran out: "The First Leader is back!"

Just as they ran out the door, Baoyu and hundreds of others rode back on strange one-horned horses and fierce beasts.

Each of them was injured and in a sorry state.

The bald man beside Baoyu grabbed the Second Leader: "Second Leader, is there a young man named Heng Xian lurking nearby? Did he come here?"

The Second Leader scratched his head and pointed to the Righteous Gathering Hall: "No Heng Xian, but there is a person named Linghu Yingjun who says he is the First Leader's friend, and he's inside!"

"Linghu Yingjun?" First Leader Baoyu, under his disheveled hair, had two bruises on his face, his eyes narrowed, and he waved his hand: "Surround it!"

"Clatter..."

Hundreds of men instantly surrounded the "Righteous Gathering Hall" tightly.

Baoyu took the Second Leader, Third Leader Baldy, and others and rushed straight into the hall, then looked at Heng Xian sitting on the First Leader's chair, and then looked at a portrait in his hand.

Baoyu didn't hesitate at all, picked up a blade, gathered the power of the Yuan Dan Initial Realm, and slashed down!

The violent aura, even though gathered as one, still blew off the roof.

"Idiot!" Heng Xian didn't move, not even blinking an eye.

"Hum—" The blade stopped just above Heng Xian's head.

Baoyu narrowed his eyes: "You said I was an idiot?"

Heng Xian said: "I guess you fought Song Rufeng and lost, and your brothers were killed or captured!

But Song Rufeng let your brothers go and made a deal with you!"

Baoyu's face changed.

Heng Xian flicked the blade away and continued: "This deal is that you come back and kill a young man named Heng Xian near the Hundred-Mile Withered Marsh, which is me!

When the time comes, he will hand Zheng Lun over to you and compensate you with something else, giving you enough steps and face to take your revenge decently and return happily!"

Baoyu's face turned pale instantly, and he retreated step by step.

The bald man's face twisted, and he let out a howl:

"You people from the great sects, what kind of tricks are you playing? He knows exactly how you were going to kill him; you can't bully people like this!"
