Chapter 81: Prelude to the Demon Wolf

~8 min read 1,556 words

Zhichiu and the middle-aged swordsman who was suspected to be a reincarnator cleaned up a place and used magic to start a fire. He rubbed his hands against the fire and groaned comfortably: "I haven't slept in a house for a long time! Brother Zhou, I still need to thank you for your righteous help! It's a pity that I didn't expect that group of monsters to have the art of escaping into the ground. As a result, not only did I not find the old nest of that group of monsters as you said, but I also lost them!"

"However, I have traveled to this Heavenly Malevolence Peak many times, so why haven't I seen this temple?"

Zhichiu the Daoist looked around, examining this newly repaired main hall, and said with confusion: "But it looks a bit familiar, alas! Chasing that group of monsters without a head, I must be lost!"

After saying that, he reminded Qian Chen and the two: "We chased a group of monsters and lost their tracks when we arrived here. I'm afraid this place is not far from their old nest... If the two fellow Daoists often travel here, you must be extra careful."

The white-clothed scholar was tall and his voice was very loud, and he asked with a smile: "What kind of monsters are they?"

Zhichiu the Daoist didn't know how long it had been since he had seen people, but he was quite talkative. Hearing someone ask, he immediately became energetic: "This group of monsters is not simple. They often appear on this Heavenly Malevolence Peak. Originally, there were no people here, but after the demon disaster raged over the years, there are almost no living people within a few hundred miles!"

At this time, the reincarnator was a bit nervous and whispered to Zhichiu the Daoist: "Their origins are suspicious, don't talk too much!"

"They are all fellow Daoists, it doesn't matter!" Zhichiu the Daoist continued to explain carelessly:

"My master heard about the demon disaster here, so he sent me to subdue demons and eliminate monsters!"

"I have been working day and night for these two months, and only then did I touch the tracks of that group of monsters. It turned out to be a group of wolf demons, looking for people to eat by going out at night and hiding during the day... So I spent a month figuring out their tracks, and finally set an ambush at a mountain pass, wanting to wipe them out in one fell swoop. Unfortunately, that group of wolf demons actually knew the art of escaping into the ground. Four of them pretended to be caught in the trap, but two more came to dig behind me and sneak attack me. Thanks to Brother Zhou passing by to help... only then did I turn danger into safety."

Thanks to Zhichiu being a big mouth, Qian Chen had a count in his heart as he listened.

This Zhichiu was a Kunlun loose cultivator in this world, and he was estimated to be an important plot character in this mission. According to Qian Chen's experience, the clues to the Blood Demon main line must be among the demons nearby. If he joined the Righteous Path camp, he would naturally have to follow Zhichiu to figure out the truth about the demons appearing nearby.

If he wanted to join the Blood Demon camp, he would have to find a way to contact that group of demons.

So the key to the next mission was actually a group of demons... As long as he found their old nest, he could officially contact the two major camps.

No wonder that reincarnator watched Zhichiu the Daoist so closely. However, besides Zhichiu, there should be other clues to contact the Righteous Path plot. No matter how he looked at it, the Righteous Path side couldn't have sent only Zhichiu.

According to Zhichiu, there was only this broken temple that Qian Chen had just built within hundreds of miles.

So if Miaokong came later, wouldn't the plot characters and reincarnators of the Righteous Path side all gather here?

Qian Chen didn't expect that his unintentional calculation would have such a wonderful use...

Just at this moment, Qian Chen suddenly twitched his nose twice and smelled a faint fishy smell. In his spiritual sense, he also felt that four demon wolves with heavy demon qi were escaping from the ground in the south. Qian Chen noticed that the white-clothed scholar first pressed his hand on the soft bag, and then Zhichiu's ears moved, suddenly staring at the ground with vigilance.

The middle-aged swordsman who was a reincarnator was the last to notice that something was wrong.

Zhichiu stood up and stared at the ground: "My Demon-Startling Bell has moved! That group of monsters must have arrived nearby..."

Qian Chen noticed that the armor horses on his feet were vibrating slightly, seemingly transmitting and amplifying the faint movement underground to Zhichiu the Daoist.

"It seems that after eating a loss, he immediately thought of a way to restrain it. The cultivators of this world are not stupid! The magic spells and means of dealing with enemies are also relatively rich!"

Qian Chen evaluated the means of the cultivators in this world, only tightening the long banner in his hand on the surface and standing by the pillar.

Soon, the sound of digging came to everyone's ears. Qian Chen listened to the sound of crunching while leaning against the pillar, and understood in his heart. Then he heard Zhichiu shout nervously: "Not good, these demon wolves are digging the foundation of the main hall, wanting to dig the hall down and bury us underneath. Everyone, get out of the main hall quickly!"

How could Qian Chen let these demon wolves ruin his ambush? The Seven Malevolence Banners in his hand shook, and a burst of black malevolence condensed into a drill, entering the ground. But he said in his mouth: "This group of demon wolves wants to force us out of the main hall, which shows that there is something in the hall that makes them wary. The enemy kills and I save, so I must protect this main hall!"

"Makes sense!" Zhichiu followed the advice, the magic sword behind his back unsheathed, and he also found a corner of the main hall to stand firm.

He stepped on the Yu steps, kept crossing and moving, measuring the position of the wolf demons, and at the same time, a copper-skinned compass appeared in his hand: "Dai Nine, Lu One, Left Three, Right Seven... Gui Mei tends to Wu Wang, Wu Wang tends to Tong Ren, Tong Ren tends to Da You... Jia turns to Bing, Bing turns to Geng, Geng turns to Gui... Intersection of Zi and Chou, intersection of Chen and Si, intersection of Wu and Wei... Haha, you are here!"

After saying that, Zhichiu pointed to the position where his right foot stepped, and the magic sword in his hand stabbed out like lightning, entering the soil.

The wolf demon underground let out a wail...

On the magic sword that came out of the soil, there was wolf hair and a lot of demon blood.

Seeing that someone had already dealt with the wolf demon, Qian Chen shook the black banner, and divided two more bursts of malevolence like giant pythons into the ground. Before long, faint vibrations came from under his feet, and that piece of land was infused with malevolence and became as hard as iron, trapping the wolf demon to death inside. Two of the four demon wolves died in the blink of an eye.

And the ground under the white-clothed scholar's feet just stomped lightly, and the sound disappeared in an instant.

The last demon wolf could no longer care about digging the foundation and fled in a panic...

"Where are you going!" The reincarnator dressed as a swordsman shouted, waved his hand and shot three sparks into the ground. Following a mound of earth rising, it escaped outside the main hall. The three sparks chased after it one by one and exploded. The swordsman chased out of the door, and soon after, he returned with a gray broken tail with an ugly face.

He threw the tail on the ground and whispered: "Let that guy break his tail and escape!"

This remark was truly unbelievable to those who knew the truth. This person must have been calculating the old nest of the wolf demons, so he deliberately let the demon go, and he probably had already left a dark hand on the wolf demon while shooting those three firelights.

At this time, through the hall door, one could already see shadows all around, and many green eyes appeared.

Those ghost-fire-like eyes appeared in the darkness in all directions, faintly surrounding the main hall. Qian Chen scanned them, and there were nearly a hundred pairs. Just when everyone was vigilant against the wolves on all sides, scratching sounds came from the other walls of the main hall.

"Be careful, they are digging the wall!" Zhichiu's voice just fell.

A burly black shadow rushed down from the beam extremely quickly. This wolf demon had restrained demon qi, and in one pounce, it was like a ghost possessing a body... ===== CHAPTER 82 =====
