Meng Qi Appears, Black Sound Blade
The moment Demon Lord Chong Lou left, the demons inside the Demon Lock Tower cheered and charged out, only for the scene to fall silent at once.
The demons and Shu Mountain Disciples stared at each other, all utterly speechless. One of the more timid demons immediately said, "Sorry to disturb you."
After saying that, he flew back into the Demon Lock Tower. Qing Wei spoke up, "Why aren’t you going back on your own? Do you want your souls scattered?"
The fearless demons gritted their teeth. "Fuck it, death it is! Brothers, scatter and run!"
As soon as the words fell, the demons immediately scattered in every direction. Some did not even need the Shu Mountain Disciples to act before crashing into each other in pairs.
Su Yu had no interest in fighting minor monsters, so he left the Demon Lock Tower and let them handle it themselves.
There were many demons unafraid of death. All of Shu Mountain’s disciples fought for an entire day before resolving the matter of the Demon Lock Tower. Still, some demons escaped; there were bound to be fish that slipped through the net, and there was nothing they could do about it.
Yu Zhou City
Xu Changqing flew toward Yu Zhou City at top speed, but Demon Lord Chong Lou was no ordinary man. His strength surpassed Xu Changqing’s by an unknown amount. Although Xu Changqing had set out first, Demon Lord Chong Lou still arrived in Yu Zhou City before him.
On the street, Jing Tian was walking along when Demon Lord Chong Lou suddenly flew over, grabbed him, and took him to a deserted place.
Frightened, Jing Tian immediately said, "B-Big Brother, I don’t have any money."
"Fei Peng, finish the fight we never finished!" As he spoke, Demon Lord Chong Lou threw the Demon Sword to Jing Tian.
Jing Tian said with a miserable expression, "Big Brother, have you mistaken me for someone else? I’m Jing Tian, not Fei Peng."
Demon Lord Chong Lou said expressionlessly, "I would never mistake you. You are Fei Peng!"
"Big Brother, stop messing around. How could I possibly know how to fight?" Jing Tian was on the verge of tears. At that moment, he deeply regretted not bringing Wolf Lord or Little Qi with him when he went out.
Jing Tian suddenly pointed behind Demon Lord Chong Lou and shouted, "Look! Fei Peng is over there!"
Demon Lord Chong Lou stared at Jing Tian as though he were looking at an idiot, and Jing Tian instantly felt awkward…
Jing Tian looked at the flying sword in his hand and immediately used the sword-riding technique Su Yu had taught him before. He quickly climbed onto the Demon Sword and flew away.
Demon Lord Chong Lou smiled, then rushed after him. As he flew, he said, "Even I cannot use this Demon Sword, yet you can! And you still claim you are not Fei Peng!"
With a deadened expression, Jing Tian said, "Big Brother, can we stop this? I really am not Fei Peng!"
Demon Lord Chong Lou stopped listening to Jing Tian and simply attacked. He refused to believe Fei Peng would just let him strike him.
Demon Lord Chong Lou struck out with his palm. At that moment, Xu Changqing’s voice rang out. "Stop!"
As he spoke, Xu Changqing rushed over and met Demon Lord Chong Lou’s palm with one of his own. Xu Changqing was immediately knocked back several meters.
The moment Jing Tian saw Xu Changqing, he breathed a sigh of relief. "White Tofu! Someone finally came to save me! Redhead, just wait for your death!"
Xu Changqing looked at Jing Tian speechlessly. Truly, there was nothing more frightening than a pig-headed teammate. Xu Changqing said, "Brother Jing Tian, run! Head toward Shu Mountain. I’ll buy you some time!"
Jing Tian swallowed nervously. "White Tofu, you can’t beat him either?"
Xu Changqing did not explain and merely repeated, "Run!"
With that, Xu Changqing drew his sword and charged at Demon Lord Chong Lou. Demon Lord Chong Lou said disdainfully, "Even the head of your Shu Mountain cannot defeat me, much less a Shu Mountain Disciple like you."
As he spoke, Demon Lord Chong Lou punched directly at Xu Changqing’s sword. When Xu Changqing’s sword collided with Demon Lord Chong Lou’s fist, Xu Changqing was the one who suffered.
Xu Changqing looked at Demon Lord Chong Lou with a grave expression, but when he noticed Jing Tian had not left, he immediately said, "Brother Jing Tian! Leave now! I cannot hold him off for long!"
Jing Tian’s gaze suddenly hardened. "No! I can’t run away alone! At worst, we’ll die together!"
Xu Changqing sighed, then charged at Demon Lord Chong Lou. Demon Lord Chong Lou said impatiently, "I have no time to play with you. I came here for Fei Peng."
With that, Demon Lord Chong Lou sent Xu Changqing flying with a single punch. Xu Changqing fell from the sky, and Jing Tian hurriedly flew down after him in fright.
Demon Lord Chong Lou followed them down as well.
After Xu Changqing fell from the sky, he landed in a creek. Jing Tian immediately pulled him out, and Demon Lord Chong Lou came before them. "Fei Peng, fight me!"
"Are you fucking sick?! I told you I’m not Fei Peng! I’m Jing Tian!" Seeing Xu Changqing covered in blood, Jing Tian roared angrily.
Demon Lord Chong Lou snorted. "Hmph! Coward! Fei Peng, you were once so spirited and proud, yet now you have become this pathetic!"
"How the fuck I am is none of your business! Are you my father or my mother?!" Jing Tian roared. He knew he could not defeat Demon Lord Chong Lou anyway, so he might as well curse him before dying.
Demon Lord Chong Lou snorted and swung a palm at them. "I refuse to believe you still will not fight me when death is upon you!"
Jing Tian shut his eyes. At that moment, the sound of a guqin rang out.
Zheng! Zheng! Zheng…
Jing Tian immediately opened his eyes in excitement and saw Meng Qi in the distance plucking a guqin. A yellow Sound Blade shot toward Demon Lord Chong Lou, catching him off guard and forcing him back several steps.
Demon Lord Chong Lou looked at Meng Qi. "Where did this child come from? What was that thing you used just now? Why have I never seen it before?"
Meng Qi looked at Demon Lord Chong Lou. "Why are you trying to kill Uncle Jing Tian and Brother Xu?"
Jing Tian’s face immediately darkened when he heard that. Xu Changqing was Brother Xu, while he was Uncle? Was he really that old…
Demon Lord Chong Lou waved his hand. "I only want to fight Fei Peng!"
Jing Tian was speechless. "How many times have I said it? I’m not Fei Peng, I’m not Fei Peng! Big Brother, you really have the wrong person!"
Demon Lord Chong Lou said, "I cannot be mistaken. Child, I hope you do not stop me, or I will beat you up too!"
Meng Qi hugged the guqin with both hands. "That won’t do. I won’t let you hurt Uncle Jing Tian and Brother Xu."
"You think you can stop me? That guqin of yours is indeed strange, but you are still far from being able to fight me!" Demon Lord Chong Lou said disdainfully.
Jing Tian also knew Meng Qi could not defeat Demon Lord Chong Lou and immediately shouted, "Little Qi, get out of here! Remember to have Yu Ge avenge me!"
Holding the guqin, Meng Qi came to Jing Tian’s side and looked at Demon Lord Chong Lou. "Sir, I’m sorry, but I still can’t let you hurt Uncle Jing Tian and Brother Xu."
As he spoke, Meng Qi slammed the guqin onto the ground. In an instant, a black Sound Blade burst from the guqin and shot straight at Demon Lord Chong Lou. Demon Lord Chong Lou’s expression changed drastically, and he hurriedly fled.
