Notice
Something that happened in the demon army stronghold clearly shows that it is impossible for humans to reconcile between the demon clan.
Most of the demon soldiers left the stronghold to watch the battle. There were no more than one hundred demon soldiers left in the camp, and they were basically ordinary banshees. At the same time, there were more than a thousand human slaves imprisoned. At dawn, a few slaves were released to clean the camp and saw the dark clouds over the valley and the beams of light soaring into the sky.
Humans could not tell which side of these spells belonged to, but the panicked demon soldiers revealed the results of the battle. The news of the "Holy Cloud Defeat" quickly turned into "Demon Cloud Defeat". The slaves who cleaned the camp communicated with each other with their eyes, and at the same time began to resist, and released all the detained slaves. A small number of banshee soldiers were unable to defend themselves. Although they killed some slaves, they were still outnumbered and were all killed. The whistle towers and caves in the stronghold were also lit up.
When Mu Xingqiu and others returned, a large base of demon soldiers in the northeast had been destroyed by the sea of fire. Nearly a thousand human slaves were guarding the gate happily, waiting for the reinforcements to take them out of the territory of the demon clan. This action not only showed that they were unwilling to become slaves of the demon clan, but also posed a problem for the Taoists.
In all the Taoist priests' plans, they planned to take only a few people away from Xijieguo quickly, gather the power of various Taoist dynasties, and recover lost land in one fell swoop, and then rescue all the humans captured by the monsters. Unexpectedly, there were suddenly more burdens, some of them were still women, children, old and weak.
Xin Youtao was the prince of Xijie Kingdom, so he led Ouyang Luo and Deng Xian to appease the slaves. The Taoists stopped far away and discussed countermeasures.
Zhang Suqin from the Chaos of Jingshan had a premonition that Mu Xingqiu would meddle in other people's business again. According to her ideas, there was no need to meet these mortals. Comfort would create sympathy, while sympathy would lead to responsibility. So she was the first to speak, "We need to leave immediately, there are many reasons. The most important thing is that the demon clan is not credible. The demon cloud escapes and will soon bring more demon soldiers. I think you can't defeat hundreds of magicians on your own, right?"
Mu Xingqiu, who was asked, shook his head. Of course, he did not have such ability. The Demon Cloud Envoy would never be the strongest man in the Demon Clan. Their promise of admitting defeat would not bind the entire Demon Clan. Soon, more and stronger demon wizards would rush over. It was not easy for the Taoist priests to escape from danger, let alone lead so many mortals?
"There are no less than 100,000 humans captured by the demon clan, and these people are only a very small number. The intelligence we collect is enough. The most important task is to contact each Taoist priest as soon as possible and form an army with the participation of the higher Taoist priests. At that time, the Taoist priests will save everyone, not just some people." Zhang Suqin paused a moment. "Please allow me to tell the truth. Now it seems that the Demon Slaying Association is a joke. It is only a few hundred low Taoist priests. It is not the opponent of the demon clan at all. We come from each Taoist priests, and we should explain this to the higher Taoist priests together. They can no longer be out of the matter. It is very important to fight against the demon clan. But if you want to prepare for the battle to eliminate demons with peace of mind, you must first eliminate the demon clan."
What Zhang Suqin said was the common idea of everyone, and no one objected. But she knew that she had not convinced Mu Xingqiu. The Taoist priest who had already withdrawn from Pangshan was more effective at this time than her long speech. She turned to Feng Dongchen in Wandishan, "What do you think about Taoist Fiance?"
Feng Dongchen has been silent after being rescued, and the coldness, hardness, arrogance and rudeness of the first meeting was gone. "First, there are still ten Taoist priests in the hands of the demon clan. I would rather be the demon cloud sending words to be trusted and able to send them back. Second, Taoist priests saved me once, and before repaying this favor, I will listen to his arrangements."
Mu Xingqiu saved not only Feng Dongchen, but also the three female Taoist priests in Luanjing Mountain. Zhang Suqin's tone eased, "I agree with your behavior of letting go of demons and demons. We are Taoists, and we must be open and upright to kill demons. The performance of those demon soldiers also surprised me a little. Perhaps they can also show a little magnanimity and let these humans go for the time being."
This can only be Zhang Suqin's wishful thinking. Human slaves killed all the guards in the stronghold, and it was impossible for the demon soldiers to not take revenge.
Shin Ji suddenly pointed to the sky in the northwest, "The Taoist priest is back."
The six surviving demon cloud envoys really followed the promises before the battle and released the remaining ten prisoners back.
Ten Taoist priests had no magical tools, and they flew in the air with pure magic power and drove out unclean energy. They saw Taoist priests on the ground from a distance and flew over immediately.
Yang Chun, the Taoist priest of Wandishan, was very excited and gave Feng Dongchen a deep courtesy of Taoism as soon as he landed. "Thank you for fellow Taoist Feng, fellow Taoist Zhang's life-saving grace. The demon clan is strong and the other is strong. How could he be the opponent of Taoist priest Xingluo?"
The other Taoist priests also saluted Feng Dongchen and Zhang Suqin. They did not know the details of the battle, but based on normal thinking, the two Taoist priests who defeated the demon cloud and forced the demon clan to release themselves must be the two Taoist priests of Xinglu, and the others were just working together.
Zhang Suqin nodded coldly, turned to the side, not accepting the priests' salute, Feng Dongchen pointed at Mu Xingqiu, "You all have to thank him, we all have to thank him. It was him who defeated the seven demon cloud envoys, and we just helped a little."
The released Taoist priests were shocked and thought this was incredible.
After a moment of silence, Taoist priest Liao Huayuan of Yashan shook his head and blurted out: "I can't. I saw him being chased by Yaoyun with my own eyes. If it weren't for... someone helped him, he would have been captured by Yaoyun, and that was just a ball of Yaoyun."
When Mu Xingqiu was threatened by Yao Yun, it was Xin Youtao and Shen Ji who suddenly appeared to block Yao Yun's attack for him. Liao Huayuan fled at the most critical moment. He didn't know what happened later, but he was very sure that Mu Xingqiu could never be Yao Yun's opponent.
Feng Dongchen gently bowed his lips, "It is your business of Yashan, we are not going to do it in Wandishan. Yang Chun, from today on, you owe a favor to fellow Taoist. How much you value your life, you should prepare for the reward."
Yang Chun was also full of doubts, but he believed that the Taoist priest of this sect star fell, and immediately gave Mu Xingqiu a formal ceremony of Taoism, "Please forgive me, and Yang Chun remembered his kindness today."
"Fellow Daoist Yang, you are polite." Mu Xingqiu did not be humble. They are all Taoist priests. Repaying kindness is not only the rule of Taoism, but also an inevitable requirement for practice.
Calling a disciple who had left the Taoist throne a "Taoist Fellowship", the two of Wandishan clearly expressed their attitude. The other Taoists did not hesitate and expressed their gratitude to Mu Xingqiu one after another. Liao Huayuan was the last one to come over, "It's not that I'm suspicious, it's really... I can't say much before I know the true experience of fellow Taoist Zhao Zhijin in Yashan."
"Fellow Daoist Zhao is dead." Feng Dongchen said calmly, "The truth must be confirmed by the high Taoist priests of various Taoist priests, but I don't think his death has anything to do with today's incident. Unless Fellow Daoist Liao owes Fellow Daoist Zhao a greater favor, otherwise you owe fellow Taoist mercy to save your life."
Once he turned to an ordinary low-level Taoist priest, Feng Dongchen's cold and hard pride was revealed again.
Liao Huayuan did not bow his head very willingly, "My fellow Taoist really saved my life, I will not forget it. Without violating the interests of Yashan, I will repay you even if I go through fire and water."
For this half-hearted thanks, Mu Xingqiu also replied with a sentence "Fellow Daoist, you are kind."
The three people who went to appease the slaves came back. Xin Youtao glanced at the rescued Taoist priests and nodded cordially. When it was Liao Huayuan's turn, the smile on his face became even stronger. "The world is impermanent, even Taoist priests who are submissive can't guess it. I really didn't expect to see Taoist priest Liao again, no. It should be Taoist priest Liao that he didn't expect to see me. Once upon a time, I and a casual cultivator resisted the arrow of the demon cloud. Mu Xingqiucun wanted to remove the unclean energy, and Taoist priest Liao turned around and flew away so coolly. But the three of us were not dead. Are you surprised?"
Liao Huayuan's face turned pale, but he refused to surrender. He raised his head and said, "None of you three are disciples of Taoism, I have no obligation to give up my life to help each other."
As soon as he said this, all the Taoist priests believed Xin Youtao's accusation. Feng Dongchen snorted and said to Yang Chun: "The Taoist priests have their own rules. We cannot control other people's affairs, but we cannot forget the rules of Wandishan. Tell me, what will the Taoist priests in Wandishan do if they encounter demons and harm others?"
Yang Chun and Liao Huayuan had a good personal relationship, but they could not stand on his side at this time and said seriously: "The Taoist priests do not interfere in mortal affairs, but if they encounter demons, they will sacrifice their lives to save them."
Liao Huayuan's face was red and his ears were red, but he did not dare to leave alone, so he lowered his head and said nothing.
Xin Youtao immediately changed his impression of Feng Dongchen and gave him a bow with a smile.
Feng Dongchen turned to Zhang Suqin, "I said, I followed the arrangements of fellow Taoists, but before that, I still have to express my own opinion first. We have to take these mortals away and not leave them to the demons. When we couldn't see them before, we could comfort ourselves and say that things were not our own, but since we met, there would be no other excuses. Don't talk about the Daotong Army saving all slaves, we all know how difficult and slow it is for the Shinto Taoist priests to make a decision. When they take action, all the mortals in Xijie will die."
Zhang Suqin remained silent, but Xin Youtao bowed to Feng Dongchen again. This time he looked serious and had no sign of laughter. "I would like to thank Taoist Feng for the thousands of people in Xijie. I have asked. They would rather die on the way to escape than stay here and wait for the demon soldiers to come back to take revenge. So if the Taoists are willing to help, they will be grateful. If they have no time to clone themselves, they will set out to the east."
The ten Taoist priests who were just released didn't understand what was going on. Feng Dongchen briefly introduced it and finally said: "Without the Taoist priest escort, these mortals will undoubtedly die."
A Xingluo Taoist priest from Hongshan said hesitantly: "Even if we escort them, they may not be able to escape this disaster. When the Demon Cloud Envoy let us go, they said that they would apologize to the Giant Demon King, and advised us to escape faster, because the Giant Demon King would do his best to chase and kill the Taoist priests who broke into the territory of the demon clan."
"Well, it makes sense to do whatever you do. The key is how to choose. I hand over my choice to fellow Taoist Empress."
Everyone was just rescued, and no one could ignore the opinions of their benefactors, so they looked at Mu Xingqiu together.
Mu Xingqiu pondered for a moment before speaking, "Fellow Daoist Zhang of Luanjingshan is right. The situation of the demon clan must be reported to each Taoist throne as soon as possible. Fellow Daoist Wandishanfeng of Wandi is right. Some things must be done, not to be done according to the situation. If you are unable to match your strength, you should bypass it. How can the Daoist throne face the demon clan in the future? So I decided to divide the troops into two groups, report the news and escort them all the way."
Zhang Suqin pointed out without hesitation, "Those who stay are tantamount to dying."
Mu Xingqiu shook his head, "I don't want to die, nor do I want to wait for Qi Wushang to send troops to chase me. I want to stand alone and attract the main force of the demon soldiers, and maybe I can win a glimmer of hope for these mortals."
