Chapter 157: Unwilling

The movement of the huge black sword seemed to be following a certain trajectory. It moved unreasonably and was completely unhindered by anything.

Li Yuanqing, who was standing below, was not eye-catching at all. Everyone could only see the huge black sword.

Although the black sword was moving slowly, it was only because everyone's movements were frozen.

Long Qingyun's cloak was broken by the sword energy, revealing his handsome face. At this moment, his handsome face was filled with fear. He tried to retreat as if he had seen a ghost, but for some reason, he felt as if his body had been frozen like stone. He could not move at all.

This incomparably terrified but irresistible feeling of terror made the fear on Long Qingyun's face intensify. His entire face was twisted.

Ah!

In the night, the piercing screams pierced everyone's eardrums, causing them to cover their ears.

No matter how carefully they observed, they could not control themselves at this moment. They raised their hands to cover their ears and did not notice the sky for a moment. When they looked up, everything in the sky was gone.

Be it Long Qingyun, the huge black sword, or the Sword Immortal himself, they were all gone.

Where is he? Where did he go?

What just happened?

Who knows what happened just now?

Whether it was the humans or the demons, they all looked around in fear. They did not even have the slightest concept of what had just happened. However, in the blink of an eye, the situation was reversed.

The strengthening of the demons was completely offset. They slowly recovered from their initial excitement, and their bodies gradually shrank. After ending their excited state, their strength seemed to have been sucked dry as they lost all their strength.

It was time for the humans to counterattack.

Hu Jiujiu stood in the night sky and shouted, blowing the horn of the human counterattack.

On the other side, Li Yuanqing had already appeared on the city wall of the outer city. It was very lonely here. Only the clear night sky sprinkled a faint moonlight on him. The dark clouds in the sky dissipated.

Behind him, countless invading demons ran out crazily. They were all scrambling to escape, afraid that they would fall behind.

In the blink of an eye, the bosses had disappeared. The two bosses were nowhere to be seen. Moreover, the two bosses had just issued their final orders to retreat as soon as possible.

Li Yuanqing looked indifferently into the distance. On a mountain peak dozens of kilometers away from the city, two demons were sitting cross-legged on the ground silently.

Long Qingyun's face was pale, and blood kept gushing out of his mouth.

Sitting at the side was Shark. Both of them had been injured by Li Yuanqing just now. They did not expect a completely inconspicuous human to have such a huge amount of energy.

The two of them did not even have the strength to speak now. They grabbed every minute and second to recover from their injuries as soon as possible.

In the distance, their subordinates kept running over. They had yet to figure out the current situation.

Long Qingyun blocked Li Yuanqing's fatal blow. However, he used some methods to release a substitute and barely blocked this attack. He was also severely injured because of this. If not for his quick reflexes, he would have been dead by now.

An incomparably deep ravine formed on the ground of the inner city.

The demons fled in panic and hid in their nests again. The humans occupied Ping City again.

Sword Immortal!

Sword Immortal is mighty!

Thank you, Sword Immortal, for giving us a chance to be reborn.

Many humans were grateful for Li Yuanqing's contribution and knelt on the ground with a plop. They knelt to the sky like they're kneeling to a God. The sky was empty, but it was only because someone had appeared before.

That man had saved them. That man had watched over them.

Minglun gathered his subordinates again and captured the demons who did not have the time to escape.

Hu Jiujiu landed on the city wall. Although she had suffered some injuries just now, they were not serious.

City Lord, the traitors have all been arrested. Please punish them. Minglun lowered his head carefully, not daring to look up at Hu Jiujiu. He didn't expect that there would really be such a person guarding behind Hu Jiujiu.

It would be difficult for the demons to do anything.

For a moment just now, even Minglun felt that he might have made the wrong choice.

Hu Jiujiu looked at him and nodded slightly. She was very satisfied with her subordinate's actions this time.

You've worked hard. Rest well when you get back. Leave the rest to me. Hu Jiujiu walked up to Minglun and carefully examined him. Your injuries are not light.

City Lord, you don't have to worry. I only have some superficial wounds.

Your lungs are already injured. How can you call it superficial wounds? Hu Jiujiu took out a few medicinal pills and placed them in his hand. Take these Divine Origin Pills. You must recover from your injuries. Don't leave any sequelae.

The Divine Origin Pill was such a rare item, yet the City Lord had casually given it to him.

Minglun was so touched that he almost cried. His hands trembled as he caught the object. Thank you for the medicine, City Lord!

You can leave. I'm tired and want to rest for a while.

Rest well, City Lord.

As soon as Minglun left, Hu Jiujiu walked to the empty space outside and sat beside the small table. Someone had been waiting here for a long time.

How's the situation outside, Master?

When Hu Jiujiu saw Li Yuanqing, her expression immediately softened. If Li Yuanqing had not made a move just now, she would have died.

Hu Jiujiu looked at Li Yuanqing with even more admiration.

Her Master's improvement speed was too fast. It had only been a short while, but she felt that his entire body had improved again. The person just now was strong enough, but in front of Li Yuanqing, he was actually unable to fight back.

Li Yuanqing only needed a moment to easily finish off the person. Such powerful strength was truly shocking.

Those two ran quite fast, Li Yuanqing said casually as he drank his tea.

Then are you planning to let them go, Master?

Li Yuanqing smiled and said, I want to let them go. But they won't give up just like that.

What do you mean, Master?

There might be a tough battle tomorrow. You have to make some preparations to stabilize the city. Don't let them take advantage of the chaos.

Master, don't worry. I've already controlled the situation in Ping City. They won't have the chance to do it again.

Come and read on our website wuxia worldsite. Thanks

Li Yuanqing replied, After the array formation of the demons was broken, the demon forces in Ping City have weakened by more than half. They can no longer cause any trouble.

As Li Yuanqing spoke, he threw a corpse at Hu Jiujiu's feet.

Hu Jiujiu lowered her head and saw that it was Zhang Muyun. This was already the most powerful demon race in Ping City. Moreover, he was the Alliance Leader of the Demon Alliance. All the decisions of the Demon Race had to be decided by him.

But now, this Alliance Leader who had been in the limelight for a while had already become a corpse.

Just now, Li Yuanqing had dealt with this restless fellow.

Hu Jiujiu stretched out her slender hand and gently swung it. Zhang Muyun's head rolled to the ground.

Hu Jiujiu threw out a rope and wrapped it around Zhang Muyun's hair. She swung it a few times in her hand and sent it flying, hanging Zhang Muyun's head on the highest platform in Ping City. Everyone in Ping City could see Zhang Muyun's hanging head.

Li Yuanqing instructed Hu Jiujiu, The things they did underground are almost done. There's no use keeping them around anymore. Send someone to take over the underground cave.

Yes, Master.

This fellow had done some good deeds and helped them flatten a lot of roads.

Zhang Muyun had already dug through the entire underground of Ping City.

It was just enough for Li Yuanqing and the others to be of use.

The next morning, when the people of Ping City woke up and saw the thing hanging above their heads, they were all silent.

Zhang Muyun had been so glorious back then, but he had ended up in such a state. It really made one sigh.

Who can say for sure? If he didn't cause trouble himself, how would things end up like this? I don't think the City Lord wants to make things difficult for him, but they've gone too far.

Aren't your words too simple? Back then, your demon race wanted to destroy the human race! A human at the side rebuked angrily, How long has it been before you've forgotten everything? You should have expected this outcome if you wanted us to be your slaves.

Brother, your words are a little harsh.

What do you mean by harsh? I see that many of you are still trying to get us down. Am I wrong?

This

This is all a misunderstanding from the past.

What misunderstanding? I think the rules of Ping City will have to be changed in the future.

That's right, we have to change it!

After this battle, the demons in Ping City no longer had any thoughts of resisting. They only wanted to seize the opportunity in front of them. None of them had the time to escape. The others had either escaped or been captured and thrown into jail.

They were lucky enough to survive.

On the other side, on a very majestic mountain dozens of miles away from Ping City.

Two busy figures darted out of the forest.

The forest below them was filled with demons. They were all nervously setting up something.

After a night of recovery, Long Qingyun and Shark's injuries had finally stopped. However, their faces were very pale. It was obvious that although they had stopped their injuries, they would not be able to recover from their internal injuries anytime soon.

The two of them looked firmly at the field below. They had set up the entire mountain range. This time, they had to destroy that Sword Immortal.

Young Master Long, once this lightning formation is set up, that fellow won't be able to escape even if he has three heads and six arms. We just have to wait for the good news. Shark smiled proudly.

However, Long Qingyun could not smile no matter what.

You've already suffered so many times. Don't you know your limits? Long Qingyun turned around. His gaze suddenly became sharp, completely different from before.

Shark saw that the situation was not right and hurriedly fell to his knees. Lord Dragon, I I don't dare to relax.

It's best if you don't dare.

After Long Qingyun's aura changed, even Shark looked at him differently.

I didn't expect this human to be so powerful. There are still some capable humans in the Catacombs. The Black Dragon muttered.

Long Qingyun had the Black Dragon bloodline and a wisp of the Black Dragon's soul.

The Black Dragon could control this body at any time. At this moment, it had already taken the lead.

Shark lowered his head and confessed, Lord Dragon, it's all my fault for losing so many brothers. Please punish me.

Enough of this nonsense. I hate it when people fart in my ear.

Lord Dragon, please calm down. I will definitely think of a way.

Long Qingyun waved his hand and looked down at the array formation under his feet.

Not bad. This lightning-attracting array is quite complete. However, there's a loophole in the southwest corner. Hurry up and send someone to fix it.

Yes Sir.

There's more.

As Lord Dragon commands.

If your people can capture this person this time, it's best to let him live.

Shark hurriedly replied, Yes, Lord Dragon.

Alright, the two of you should quickly finish the rest. If you let this person go this time, I don't think the two of you will have to come back.

Shark prostrated himself on the ground in terror. After a long moment, the pressure around him suddenly disappeared. Shark looked up cautiously.

Long Qingyun had already returned to his original state. He looked coldly at Shark, who was kneeling on the ground, and naturally knew what had just happened.

Young Master Long? Shark asked.

Stop lying on the ground and get up to work. As Long Qingyun spoke, he flew up.

This huge lightning formation that could cover the entire mountain range was their bargaining chip against Li Yuanqing.

Up until now, no one had been able to break through this array formation. In their opinion, Li Yuanqing was already a dead man.

Young Master Long, after we complete this array formation, we should be able to kill that brat. Young Master Long When the time comes to go back and report, don't forget to put in a good word for me in front of the Lord Dragon.
