Chapter 270

~12 min read 2,305 words

Diabolo spread his figure and drilled into the demon. Instantly, the entire demon became materialized. A black demon beast several feet tall looked down at the tiny Lin Yu, its roar causing cracks to spread across the earth.

Lin Yu’s expression was gloomy, a sense of crisis rising in his heart.

Dong Zhuo looked at Cao Cao, Sun Sun Shangxiang, and the Five Tiger Generals who had run to his side and laughed: "Want to gang up on me? The thing I fear least is people. Dark Scripture, 'Eight Demons Appear'."

As soon as the words fell, Dong Zhuo waved his arms, and eight demons suddenly jumped out of the shattered space and stood on the ground.

"Get rid of them." Dong Zhuo ordered coldly.

The demons began to charge, and Zhang Fei and the others shouted, "Kill!"

Zhang Fei grabbed his Serpent Spear, pierced the chest of a demon with one strike, and the demon dissipated into smoke. He turned the spear and slashed another demon.

Zhao Yun used his Bright Silver Spear, the spear shadows dense, and two demons were wiped out before they could see what was happening.

Ma Chao used his Tiger-Headed Golden Spear, the spear tip breaking through the air, piercing through a demon, then pulled back the long spear and advanced to slash another demon.

Huang Zhong unleashed the Heaven-Startling Arrow Technique, arrows raining down. In an instant, the eight demons conjured by Dong Zhuo’s demonic power were all slashed. The four held their weapons and rushed toward Dong Zhuo.

"Truly useless!" Dong Zhuo cursed, pushing out his palms, demonic energy surging toward the four.

Zhang Fei and the others resisted with all their might, and amidst the roaring sounds, several people retreated step by step, fortunately helped by someone behind them, stabilizing their footing.

Seeing this, Dong Zhuo whispered: "Lord Demon Lord, I need your power!"

His aura surged, his combat power soaring from 50,000 to 60,000. Zhang Fei and the others sensed that powerful strength. At this moment, a sound of a zither rang out, and white energy drilled into their bodies.

"Xiao Qiao, you can actually use this move, how amazing." Someone praised.

"Take this opportunity, hit him!" Cao Cao suggested.

"Good!" Everyone combined their efforts to resist Dong Zhuo with all their might.

"Oh no, what is going on with these guys! Damn it, leave first." Feeling the Five Tiger Generals’ combat power surge, Dong Zhuo hurriedly chose to run away.

Seeing this, Zhang Fei cursed angrily: "This guy actually slipped away!"

"Dong Zhuo’s strength is truly terrifying. If it weren't for us working together, we would have all been beaten to death. From now on, everyone must be cautious," Cao Cao reminded.

"Let’s hurry and find Big Brother, I’m afraid something will happen over there," Cao Cao suggested.

"Good, the power on Lu Bu is even stronger than Dong Zhuo’s." Everyone agreed and ran toward where Lin Yu and Diabolo were clashing.

At this time, Lin Yu was extremely annoyed. All his attacks were harmless to the behemoth in front of him. The formation composed of four demons was the same one he had encountered in the Demon World. With his current combat power, he couldn't win and could only keep dodging.

Everyone accelerated, feeling the ground shaking. When they arrived at Lin Yu’s side, they saw the horned demon beast continuously hammering the earth, each strike leaving dents several meters deep. Lin Yu was agile, but he was being heavily suppressed.

[347] Great War with the Demon Lord

Everyone witnessed this scene and was shocked. Lin Yu sensed the arrival of Cao Cao and the others and said in a low voice.

"Everyone, Diabolo Demon Lord brought several demon warriors with nearly 40,000 magic power from the Demon World, and the formation’s combat power is approaching 200,000. If it weren't for its huge size and slow movement, I would have already been unable to hold on. Now, I need your strength, get ready."

Hearing this, Cao Cao was shocked by the demon warriors with nearly 40,000 combat power. Demon warriors were the elite of the Demon World, immortal and indestructible. Now, with several demons plus a Demon Lord, the situation was grim. He quickly adjusted his mindset and said to everyone.

"The enemy is powerful, Liu Bei cannot handle it alone, we need to help him. Let’s line up, the people behind will pass their strength to the front, and we will work together to help Liu Bei."

"Does that even work?" Zhang Fei was puzzled.

"It works, this is what Liu Bei taught me, please trust me," Cao Cao said earnestly.

"Good, listen to Cao Cao," Guan Yu responded.

Everyone lined up as told, Cao Cao in the front, Sun Sun Shangxiang in the back, hands on the back of the person in front, strength flowing. Cao Cao whispered to Lin Yu: "Liu Bei, ready."

Lin Yu flashed in front of Cao Cao, Cao Cao pressed his hands against his back, strength surging. The horned lava demon beast approached, its fist shadows covering everyone, the pressure like a collapsing mountain.

Lin Yu’s sword light flashed, a semi-circular sword energy met the giant fist, and amidst the roaring, the demon beast stumbled backward.

Lin Yu pointed his sword at several demons, four sword beams slashed out, and with a heavy sound, several warriors knelt on the ground seriously injured. The demon beast dissipated, Lu Bu’s figure reappeared, and Diabolo Demon Lord fled back to the Demon World with injuries.

Lin Yu intended to go over, but the people behind him had collapsed from exhaustion, and he could only watch them escape.

In the Cao family courtyard.

Lin Yu and the Five Tiger Generals sat around in the living room, the atmosphere so heavy it could be wrung out.

The series of changes just now was like a giant rock hitting a calm lake, making everyone feel uneasy.

The once familiar world seemed to have become strange and dangerous overnight, with strong enemies following one after another, mercilessly shattering their former confidence and pride.

Lin Yu whispered to Dengtian Pavilion: "Dengtian Pavilion, this matter has blown up. It’s one thing for Diabolo Demon Lord to reappear, but he also brought several demon warriors with 40,000 combat power."

"You hurry and give a heads-up to Jiu Wu and Xia Tian, let them be vigilant, don't let people catch them off guard. Also, have them bring the 'Soul Washing Song' and 'Soul Calming Song'. Guan Yu is infected with demonic energy, he needs to be purified first."

Dengtian Pavilion nodded silently, responding understandingly: "Should we also let the people of the Silver Dimension understand the current situation? They are completely ignorant of the Demon World."

Lin Yu thought for a moment and felt it was necessary, so he turned to the silent room of people and spoke.

"Everyone must be clear in their hearts, with a bunch of question marks. I’ll say a few words simply, first about 'demons'. Demons come from the Demon World, divided into Chimei, Youhun, Yankui, and Demon Lords. The Demon Lord is the boss."

"The Lu Bu who fought me today was possessed by the Demon Lord. Those Chimei that Dong Zhuo conjured have combat power of around 20,000."

"Youhun are lower, less than 10,000, Yankui are 20,000 to 40,000, and those at 38,000 have the title of Demon King. I heard you killed eight Chimei, consider yourselves lucky, you didn't encounter the ones with high combat power."

"The Demon World has been eyeing our twelve dimensions, including Gold, Wood, Water, Fire, Earth, Wind, Thunder, Iron, Gold, and Silver. This is the Silver Dimension."

"I am from another dimension, impersonating the Liu Bei you speak of. The real Liu Bei was seriously injured and sent to our place for treatment."

"Guan Yu was desperate to follow, but for the stability of the dimension, I stayed behind to impersonate Liu Bei. I am here to protect you and strengthen the righteous power here to fight against the Demon World."

As soon as this was said, everyone stared at Lin Yu in disbelief. Although Zhang Fei knew they were not from this era, he knew nothing about the Demon World.

Lin Yu stood up and bowed deeply: "Sorry, I am not Liu Bei, I have been hiding it from everyone, I really feel bad."

Everyone looked at Lin Yu with complex expressions. Guan Yu stood up and asked very seriously: "Living and dying together, swearing brotherhood in the Peach Garden, was it you or the injured Liu Bei?"

Lin Yu straightened his back and shouted excitedly: "It was definitely me!"

Guan Yu smiled: "That’s fine! Whether it’s Liu Bei or Lin Yu, I only treat you as Big Brother!"

"That’s right, we also treat you as one of us!" Zhao Yun and the others stood up one after another. "And the name Lin Yu is quite good!" Ma Chao interjected.

Seeing that the Five Tiger Generals accepted his identity, Lin Yu continued: "My identity is no problem, next is Guan Yu’s problem. Guan Yu, you were influenced by Dong Zhuo’s demonic energy, and your internal strength is also affected, we must deal with this hidden danger quickly."

"Big Brother, what will demonic power affect?" Guan Yu asked.

"The demonic energy injected into your body by Dong Zhuo will gradually erode you, making you his puppet. Just today, you were controlled and rushed up. Fortunately, you were beaten and injured, otherwise, you might have fought us long ago," Lin Yu explained.

[348] Soul Washing Song removes Guan Yu’s demonic energy

"Big Brother, then hurry and help Second Brother solve the hidden danger!" Zhang Fei said anxiously.

"This has to wait. Once the 'Soul Washing Song' and 'Soul Calming Song' arrive, I will help Guan Yu purify the demonic energy. At the same time, please ask President Cao to help find where Dong Zhuo is, and eliminate him as soon as possible," Lin Yu said.

"I have already passed the news about Dong Zhuo practicing the 'Dark Scripture' to the Alliance Master. The entire All-School Alliance is searching for him, but there is no news yet," Cao Cao replied.

"Dengtian Pavilion, you hurry and pass the news to the East City Guards, let them bring the news to Jiu Wu, and let him bring those two things over," Lin Yu ordered.

Dengtian Pavilion nodded and passed the news to the East City Guards.

Sha Jie looked heavy after seeing Dengtian Pavilion and asked hurriedly: "Dengtian Pavilion, what happened?"

Dengtian Pavilion told the story of Dong Zhuo, Diabolo Demon Lord, the demons, and Guan Yu being occupied by demonic energy in detail. Sha Jie agreed immediately after hearing it and then disappeared.

In the Cao family courtyard.

"These are the Soul Washing Song and Soul Calming Song I mentioned. I will first use the Soul Washing Song to clear Yun Chang’s demonic energy, then use the other one to heal his injuries."

Lin Yu held two scrolls of music, and everyone stared straight at them.

"Big Brother, are those two things really okay? Can they work?" Zhang Fei asked.

"These are the rarest treasures in the Iron Dimension, they are very hard to come by, absolutely reliable!" Lin Yu replied.

"When helping Yun Chang remove the demonic energy, he will be very uncomfortable, you need to help stabilize him," Lin Yu said to everyone.

"Mm, I trust Big Brother," Guan Yu said.

"Then let’s do it! Zhao Yun, Huang Zhong, Ma Chao, you three are responsible for stabilizing Second Brother, Cao Cao, you observe the surroundings and guard against sneak attacks from the Demon World," Lin Yu ordered.

Everyone responded. Guan Yu sat directly on the ground, Zhao Yun and the others surrounded him to guard him, while Sun Sun Shangxiang, Diao Chan, and Xiao Qiao watched from the side. Lin Yu’s aura enveloped the whole scene. Then he took out a zither, opened the "Soul Washing Song," and began to play according to it.

With the vibration of the zither strings, the music was mixed with the wailing of ghosts and wolves. Lin Yu’s power was converted into airflow through the music score and poured into Guan Yu’s body.

As the airflow entered Guan Yu’s body, the demonic energy began to resist. He roared loudly, stood up suddenly, his eyes full of killing intent.

"Second Brother!" "Yun Chang..." Zhao Yun and Zhang Fei hurriedly pressed his arms tightly and called out anxiously.

"Ah! It hurts, let me go, let me go!" Guan Yu roared in pain.

Seeing this, Diao Chan clenched her hands and shouted with a pained heart: "Guan Yu!"

Xiao Qiao and Sun Sun Shangxiang hurriedly stopped Diao Chan from going forward: "Diao Chan, don't go, it will affect Lin Yu, this is saving Guan Yu."

"I know, but looking at him like this, my heart hurts," Diao Chan said with tears in her eyes, but she could only stand there in pain.

Lin Yu’s fingertips danced on the zither strings, the melody becoming more and more impassioned, as if fighting a fierce battle with the demonic energy in Guan Yu’s body. In the music, Guan Yu’s struggle gradually subsided, the demonic energy was stripped away bit by bit, his face turned from red to white, and sweat poured down like rain.

"Hold on, Guan Yu, it’s almost successful!" Lin Yu’s voice was firm and powerful, and the music was full of inspiring power.

"Big Brother..." Guan Yu spat out these two words with difficulty, a flash of gratitude in his eyes, and then fell into deep pain again.

Around them, the Five Tiger Generals and Cao Cao’s group watched this scene nervously, everyone’s heart in their throats. Cao Cao clenched his fists, ready to deal with any sudden situation at any time.
