Chapter 207
After a while, under Li Muyang’s silent gaze, she coldly said, “Our brief relationship of convenience ends here…”
“You have your path to walk, and I have my obsessions to fulfill.”
“If there’s a chance in the future, we can continue where we left off…”
After Yan Xiaoru finished speaking, she indifferently shifted her gaze away from Li Muyang, no longer looking at him.
The air inside the tent suddenly became somewhat stiff.
What was warm and romantic moments ago had turned cold in an instant.
Everything was happening too quickly.
Whether it was the Demonic Sect disciple who suddenly emerged from the ground or Yan Xiaoru’s decision, everything came too fast.
It wasn’t until Yan Xiaoru finished her last sentence, which sounded like she was placating a child, that Li Muyang shook his head and said, “If there’s a chance in the future… You’re treating me like a kid.”
Li Muyang’s expression was hesitant as if he had something to say.But Yan Xiaoru didn’t give him a chance to speak.
She clenched the Flying Moon Shuttle in her hand and did something. The next second, the semi-transparent light blue Flying Moon Shuttle emitted a dazzling blue light.
Seeing this, Li Muyang was startled and hurriedly spoke out.
“Yan Xiaoru!”
Listen to me, damn it!
I still have a trump card!
But Yan Xiaoru just looked at him coldly as the dazzling blue light of the Flying Moon Shuttle enveloped her body.
The next second, a dazzling blue light pierced through the tent and shot into the night sky, disappearing into the dark night in the blink of an eye.
Everyone on Pingyang Hill looked up curiously, astonished by the scene, unsure of what had happened.
Only Li Muyang stood in the tent with a pained expression, grinding his teeth and angrily saying,
“Damn Yan Xiaoru!”
Would it kill you to listen to me for a moment!?
You’re so quick to dump me… F*ck!
Can’t you wait for me to finish speaking?
This immature brat who doesn’t listen to others, once I fight my way out, I’m definitely going to hit your behind later!
Li Muyang was indignant.
I don’t want to join the Blood Lotus Sect! I don’t want to give up everything I have!
Why should I surrender just because the Blood Lotus Sect comes to kill and demands it?
I’ve been here for over a year since I crossed over, finally making a friend, mischievously cunning relatives, and even a childish elder with curves… Why should I have to give that up!?
Li Muyang clenched his teeth, growing more and more furious.
The scene of the blue light shooting into the night sky instantly alerted the Demonic Sect cultivators on Pingyang Hill.
Outside the tent, footsteps were heard in urgent confusion. Everyone panicked and puzzled.
“Elder Yan! What happened?”
The two people in this tent were the mainstay of all the cultivators on Pingyang Hill.
Neither could afford any mishaps.
Leading the way was the aloof young man, Cheng Feiyang.
However, when the crowd arrived outside the tent, anxious and inquiring, the door of the tent was lifted, and Li Muyang, bare-chested, walked out.
“Elder Yan has run away!”
Li Muyang said indifferently to all the remaining Demonic Sect cultivators present, “The sect leader sent someone with a magical treasure, but that treasure can only take one person to escape.”
“Elder Yan has already left. Now, only we remain on Pingyang Hill. The Demonic Sect will not send reinforcements to rescue us…”
Li Muyang succinctly informed everyone of the current situation.
The people had already given up hope for reinforcements, having defended for so many days without any sign of them.
Guessing was one thing, but hearing the news confirmed was quite another.
Upon hearing that Elder Yan had left…
The demon cultivators who had hastily gathered outside the tent were stunned.
They stood there, dazed, as if all hope had been lost, their eyes dimming, devoid of any spark.
“The Demonic Sect has abandoned us…”
“Elder Yan has abandoned us…”
Although such things were not unusual in the self-interested path of demon cultivation, the disciples of the Demonic Sect on Pingyang Hill were still filled with despair and indignation.
Seeing the bleakness in the eyes of the demon cultivators on the hill, Li Muyang spoke coldly.
“Since there’s no hope left, we might as well fight to the death.”
“Who is willing to charge down the hill with me?”
“We still haven’t made use of the two Incense Masters from the Blood Lotus Sect that we’ve taken hostage.”
“This time, let’s push them to the front as we charge and see if the Blood Lotus Sect will turn their weapons against their own Incense Masters.”
“Even if we are to die, let’s drag a few of them down with us!”
“Who will join me?!”
On Pingyang Hill, Li Muyang roared with anger.
His resentful, venomous roar instantly ignited the hatred in everyone’s hearts.
All clenched their fists and shouted back at Li Muyang with loud voices.
“Kill!”
A quarter of an hour later, the fires on Pingyang Hill were extinguished, and the poison fog used to drive away the followers of the Blood Lotus Sect at the foot of the mountain quickly dissipated.
However, as the followers of the Blood Lotus Sect began to form ranks, preparing to continue their assault up the hill, a thunderous roar suddenly erupted from the mountainside.
“Kill!”
The next second, the ground shook violently.
Hundreds of demon cultivators from the Demon Refining Sect roared fiercely, charging down the hill without regard for their own lives.
And leading the charge at the forefront were the two Incense Masters of the Blood Lotus Sect.
Nangong Ting and Liu Hucheng!
……
The battle on Pingyang Hill lasted the entire night.
Until the sunrise pierced the darkness, Shen Yan in Tianjiao City received a strange battle report.
“The demon cultivators on Pingyang Hill suddenly fought like trapped beasts, charging down the hill and breaking through Helmsman Xie’s military formation?”
Upon seeing this peculiar battle report, Shen Yan was momentarily speechless.
“Helmsman Xie underestimated the enemy again…”
But underestimating them was of no consequence.
Even if they broke through the military formation for a moment, the mere hundred people on the hill couldn’t escape far.
Shen Yan continued to read the battle report.
“A Demonic Sect disciple named Li Muyang, dragging two Incense Masters, used their lives to threaten and delay, buying time for his companions to escape?”
“A hundred demon cultivators from the Demon Refining Sect scattered and fled into the wilderness, now only thirty have been captured…”
Reading this, Shen Yan was somewhat surprised and also a bit admiring.
“This Li Muyang, he’s brave and strategic, unafraid of death, sacrificing himself to buy time for his companions to escape. He’s truly a talent in the making.”
Shen Yan sighed and continued reading.
“Both Incense Masters Nangong and Liu were safely rescued, and the Demonic Sect disciple Li Muyang… surrendered after resisting for an hour?”
This was not unexpected, as even the Martial God Tyrant Body couldn’t withstand Helmsman Xie’s half-demon army.
But the following part of the battle report suddenly became unsettling.
“After capturing Li Muyang, Helmsman Xie dispatched three hundred men to escort Li Muyang to Tianjiao City, but on the way… three hundred men mysteriously disappeared? Li Muyang vanished without a trace?”
Staring at the content of this battle report, Shen Yan froze for a moment, almost doubting her own eyes.
In the surroundings of Tianjiao City, which was completely controlled by the Blood Lotus Sect, three hundred people disappeared without a trace…
The usually composed Shen Yan showed a rare look of astonishment.
“Am I having a nightmare?”
How could such an absurd thing happen!?
Who could erase three hundred people in one go on a land where everyone’s cultivation was stripped away?
