The Immortal Emperor Returns-Chapter 617 - Are You a Human or a Devil?
Chapter 617 Are You a Human or a Devil?
The Shadowless Sect was built on Shadowless Mountain, a mountain with spiritual energy. Qiu Yunping named it yesterday.
“Yunping.” The Master of the Shadowless Sect was a slightly fat man with a strong aura. Although he was hundreds of years old, his skin was as tender as a baby’s, and he looked like a businessman who knew how to take care of himself.
Qiu Yunping was sitting on the hillside, and he spat out the grass in his mouth when he heard the voice. He became serious, stood up, and bowed. “Dad.”
The Master of the Shadowless Sect looked at the mountains surrounded by the light of the setting sun and gently raised his hand, indicating that Qiu Yunping didn’t have to be so polite. “Yunping, aren’t we a little too nervous?”
“Dad, are you referring to the order from Chu the Devil?”
“There are still less than six hours left. I think that Chu the Devil’s words are not serious. There is no need to take it seriously.”
Qiu Yunping smiled and said, “Dad, we must take it seriously. Even if others don’t take it seriously, we have to do it. As his friend, our Shadowless Sect has accepted lots of his help. Whether he was serious or not, we have to obey him.”
“Well, there are both advantages and disadvantages in a city. Staying in a city, we are less free and easy. It’s not good for cultivation if we stay in it all the time.”
“Dad is truly wise.”
On the main road to Gujiang City, a group of hundreds of people seemed to be fleeing for their lives.
“Hurry up, everyone.” Diao Xingyi shouted and kept urging them.
“Master, will Chu the Devil get angry if we do this?” An elder was worried.
“Why will he get angry? Qianlong Mountain is empty now, and we left the city because of him, so we have to seek refuge with him.” With a smile on his face, Diao Xingyi narrowed his eyes slightly and looked cunning.
In another direction, another group of people was moving toward Gujiang City, too. The number of them was no less than that of Diao Xingyi and his companions. A strong man was leading the group.
“Everyone, hurry up! We’ll be there soon!” Weng Xiong shouted.
There was an urgent look on his rough face. He wanted to rush to Gujiang City as soon as possible and occupy Qianlong Mountain. He had the same purpose as Diao Xingyi. Since all the people of the Chu Mansion had moved to the Dream Hell Mountain, Qianlong Mountain was empty now. The place where Chu Xun had lived was definitely a good place to live. He decided to settle down there and make Chu Xun his neighbor.
Other people also thought of the same thing, such as Shi Yifei, Ge Zhan, and others. They were also rushing in the direction of Qianlong Mountain.
At this time, many forces in cities were waiting for what would happen next. There were less than six hours left, but most of them were not shocked but happy. They thought Chu the Devil wouldn’t do anything to them. It seemed they were right, and Chu the Devil could do nothing to them. 𝘧𝒓e𝑒𝑤e𝙗𝚗o𝙫𝒆𝙡.𝐜𝐨m
The setting sun was as red as blood, reflecting the earth. It looked weird.
The city closest to the capital was originally Beihe City, but now it was renamed Flying Scorpion City. A few years ago, a force called Flying Scorpion Sect occupied and took control of it.
The forces occupied cities selectively. There were big, small, prosperous, and backward cities. Those big forces chose to occupy big cities, especially next to the capital city. Without strong power, how dare they occupy those cities?
The Flying Scorpion Sect was powerful and resourceful. In just a few years, it had taken over the economy in Beihe City and issued its own laws like an emperor.
The former Beihe City was now surrounded by the city walls that had consumed a lot of manpower and financial resources. The four gates were tall and domineering, much larger than those of the palaces of ancient emperors.
Feng Tianhao, the householder of Flying Scorpion Sect, was sitting on a golden dragon chair, wearing a golden suit and a feather crown like an ancient emperor. The only difference between him and an ancient emperor was that a black scorpion was embroidered on his chest.
Two rows of neat chairs were below him. Dozens of presbyters were sitting on them. Their disciples sent them news to analyze and discuss.
Feng Tianhao tapped his knees rhythmically with his fingers. A disciple sent a message that except for those who were related to Chu Xun, no one had moved.
“Chu the Devil... Are you serious?” Feng Tianhao’s voice was not loud, as if he was talking to himself or asking the presbyters below.
“Master, I think Chu the Devil is not serious. He hasn’t taken any measures yet. That means he was talking.”
“After saying those words, Chu the Devil hasn’t shown up again. I guess that he must be acquainted with that man in the capital city, so he has no choice but to show respect for him.”
“It’s said that Chu the Devil is just a major general in the army. We can think about it carefully. With his reputation, how could he take a military rank seriously?”
Feng Tianhao narrowed his eyes. Everyone in the world knew Chu the Devil. Although he had a fierce reputation, no one dared to underestimate him. He had earned his fame through killing. Feng Tianhao had collected information about Chu the Devil and analyzed his character. He did not seem to be the kind of person who spoke casually.
“Are there any movements from the Extreme Coldness Sect?”
The Extreme Coldness Sect neighbored theirs, changing from the former Jintian City to the Extreme Coldness City.
“The Extreme Cold Sect hasn’t done anything yet. It seems that they don’t take Chu the Devil’s words seriously at all. Moreover, they have issued an order. Even if all the forces withdraw from the cities, they won’t withdraw,” a presbyter replied.
Feng Tianhao chuckled. “Jiang Xiong is always so arrogant.”
“Master...”
Boom!
A huge roar seemed to come from the horizon, and the whole Flying Scorpion City had trembled a few times. Feng Tianhao sat up straight.
“What happened?” A presbyter called out to his disciples to investigate.
Feng Tianhao’s eyes twinkled, and he frowned slightly. The next moment, he rushed out of the hall and stood outside the courtyard, looking up at the black figure in the air.
The presbyters didn’t know what was going on and followed him out.
“Is he Chu the Devil?”
Someone looked at the figure in the air and exclaimed.
Feng Tianhao frowned and raised his hand. The presbyters made him very dissatisfied. They looked weak.
“Feng Tianhao.” He cupped his hands before his chest, looking quite graceful.
“Chu Xun,” the figure in the air said indifferently.
“I didn’t expect that you came to my Flying Scorpion Sect first.” Feng Tianhao chuckled. He had guessed countless results, but he didn’t expect it.
“Does it matter where I came first?”
“It does matter.” Feng Tianhao nodded seriously. “If you go to other forces first. Hearing the news, I will have a chance to migrate.”
“There are still five hours left. Can you leave with such a big property?”
“It’s a little difficult.”
“That’s why I said... It doesn’t matter where I came first.”
Swoosh!
The dazzling purple light was more dazzling than the setting sun. The air was separated like water, and the purple light chopped toward Feng Tianhao.
Feng Tianhao’s clothes bulged suddenly, and the aura around him was strong and whirled rapidly. Airwaves lifted up the stone bricks on the ground and forced the presbyters behind him to step back.
The purple blade light pierced through the storm around Feng Tianhao, and then the ground behind him exploded, leaving a huge ditch that was dozens of meters long.
Feng Tianhao stiffened, and his breath weakened gradually. The stone bricks that were wandering around him fell to the ground.
“You deserve to be called Chu the Devil...” Feng Tianhao whispered.
A red line appeared between his eyebrows and continued to extend downward. With a poof, a blood mist exploded, and Feng Tianhao fell to both sides. He was cut into two halves by the blade light.
“Master.”
“Master.”
Panicked, terrified, and heart-wrenching cries sounded.
A man with a sword descended from mid-air.
“You shouldn’t have treated my words casually.”
Swoosh!
He rushed into the group of presbyters.
Poof!
Heads flew a few meters into the air, and blood gushed out. The blood dyed the ground red.
With booms, bodies exploded, and the blood mists were even more dazzling than the setting sun.
“Let’s kill the devil.”
“Let’s take revenge on him.”
“You’ll pay for your cruelty, Chu the Devil.”
The blade light flew in all directions, heads rolled, and blood flowed like a river on the ground...
Poof... One of them was cut in half at the waist.
The Dragon’s Wrath shone brilliantly and chopped a presbyter’s body into halves easily.
The head flew away, and he didn’t have time to close his eyes.
In a few breaths, Chu Xun dealt with them easily.
Clang!
A long blade landed on the ground. Feng Kang’s eyes were lifeless, with pupils enlarging, and his face was pale. He seemed to have instantly aged several hundred years. Except for him, all his companions died.
“Please kill me.” He closed his eyes and resigned himself to his fate.
The Dragon’s Wrath in Chu Xun’s hand was still shining brightly. The Tao Wu’s spirit inside secretly stuck its head out and began to suck the blood Qi here.
“There are still five hours left. Take your families and disciples and run for your lives.”
Feng Kang suddenly opened his eyes, but the figure in front of him had disappeared. He stood still in the same place with disbelief. After a long time, he suddenly woke up with a shiver and asked, “Are you a devil or a human?”
Extreme Coldness City’s situation was similar to that of Flying Scorpion City. The city with walls surrounded it like a small country.
Jiang Xiong was a strong man of two meters tall. His body was quite burly, and his beard looked quite brutish. His appearance was enough to cause children to fear and cry.
“Is there any news?” The voice was loud and clear.
“There’s no news for the time being. It seems that Chu the Devil was not serious. ”
Jiang Xiong laughed so loudly that everyone’s eardrums buzzed. “He is regarded as a killing god. How could such a person work for the country?”
“Master, since he has spoken personally, we have to be on guard,” one of the presbyters said.
“What the fuck are you afraid of? If he dares to come, I’ll wring off his head and kick it around like a ball.” Jiang Xiong grew agitated and smacked the chair beneath him. Jiang Xiong surged to his feet as cracking sounds rang out, and the chair collapsed.
The presbyters below couldn’t withhold their laughter. He had destroyed more than ten chairs this month, right?
Jiang Xiong’s eyes widened. “What the hell are you laughing about? Hurry up and move another one for me.”
“Master, should I find someone to make an iron chair for you?”
“It sounds good.”
The group of presbyters erupted in laughter.
Jiang Xiong could be considered a boorish man, but he had talent in martial arts. He was open-minded and bold. There were not many rules in his sect. He was not angry when presbyters occasionally joked with him, so he had many sincere friends to support him.
