The Devilish Immortal Chapter 361 - Spy and Conspiracy

Chapter 361 Spy and Conspiracy

Lyu Liang went downstairs and hurried to a secluded place. Only then could he sigh in relief. He shook his head and gave a wry smile, as he whispered to himself, “I can’t manage this alone. Alas! What should I do?”

Fairy Purple Phoenix’s pa.s.sion was way beyond his expectation. After Lyu Liang arrived at her residence, he could not respond with the same enthusiasm, but he could not evade her either.

“If only Xiaojing were with me… Eh? What is this?” When Lyu Liang was pondering over the question, he noticed that the bright sky suddenly dimmed above him. The sun had disappeared. In its place were numerous stars and a huge whirlpool.

Lyu Liang was familiar with such a scene. It had occurred repeatedly whenever someone was out to murder Lyu Liang, and planning to s.h.i.+ft him to a totally different place!

Just then, four figures emerged in front of the whirlpool. Lyu Liang recognized the little man, who had tried to murder him a while ago, and thought of what Wen Xiaojing had told him.

“You’re working for the Pan Gu Cave!” Lyu Liang roared with rage, when the four men were about to launch their attacks.

Two of them were stunned, and the bearded man blurted out in confusion, “Eh! How do you know?”

“Stupid! Now he knows who we are!” The little man gave the bearded man an angry knock on his head. Then, he sneered, “But that does not matter. Anyway, we never planned to hide our ident.i.ties. Besides, you might die here after a while!”

“Are you sure you four can defeat me?” Lyu Liang raised his brows. He was not afraid of these four guys, but their confidence somehow made him confused.

“Ho ho, indeed, we might lose if this is a four-to-one game. But do you know? At this moment, your Miss Wen is…” The little man paused to savor Lyu Liang’s frown and continued, “Our boss, and a killer who’s much stronger than us, are there right now. I think they will kill her, won’t they?”

“You…” Lyu Liang furrowed his eyebrows and said, “I’m your target! Why do you need to hurt her?” He summoned out his 18 Ghost Soldiers, eight Spirit Swallowing Bugs, together with four Star-picking Palms and several black suns.

“You don’t need to know why. Attack!” The little man waved his hand. As four surges of Spiritual Qi filled the air, weapons shone in the hands of the four men. The next second, they rushed directly at Lyu Liang.

“I have no time to waste on you!” Lyu Liang felt the urgency to end the fight within the shortest time.

Lyu Liang knew that the little man was not trying to trick him. Even if Wen Xiaojing had not been injured, she was not a match for these four, let alone their boss and a stronger killer.

But these four sly men seemed to know what Lyu Liang was thinking about. They did not take up the gauntlet at all. Although the Spirit Swallowing Bugs and the black suns kept launching fatal attacks, these four men dodged them with ease. What was worse, the s.p.a.ce seemed boundless, even Tian and Black failed to find their way out.

When Lyu Liang felt really helpless, suddenly both he and his enemies were stunned. A turning point appeared.

Lyu Liang became excited, yet somehow reluctant, while his enemies were outraged.

With a crisp sound, a crack appeared in the sky, letting the sunlight in. Fairy Purple Phoenix said softly and resolutely, “I’m no longer that fragile girl who was under your protection. From now on, I’ll fight with you!”

……

Almost at the same time, a weird gray light cover appeared, thousands of miles away from the Flower Falling Town.

“Bro-brother Yi, who are they?” The fat fellow was shocked.

“It’s none of his business. They are here for me!” Wen Xiaojing frowned, as she said in a low voice, “To kill Lyu Liang, you must have racked your brains!”

At this moment, the tusked man and four late-stage Tao Ancestors surrounded Wen Xiaojing and her companions. As a leader, the tusked man did not reveal any aura.

“You’re clever. I won’t kill you, but that does not mean that you can escape from here!” The tusked man nodded and then turned to Mu Yi and the fat fellow, “You’re of no value to me. I can spare you if you get away now.”

“Brother Yi, we, we…” The fat fellow was trembling and waiting for Mu Yi’s decision to escape.

With the cultivation at the Peak of Supreme Master, the fat fellow and Mu Yi could be considered as powerful in the middle-level world. But right now, the people who confronted them were much stronger than they could believe.

“Third brother, you go first.” Unexpectedly, Mu Yi said this seriously and resolutely.

“Ah?” The fat fellow was surprised, “Wh-what about you?”

Mu Yi gazed at Wen Xiaojing for a while and smiled. He replied softly, “Perhaps you can’t believe it. But I know I can’t live without her! If I leave, I will become a sh.e.l.l without the soul… I don’t want to live with endless regret. If so, I’d rather die!”

Stupefied, the fat fellow opened his mouth wide. Mu Yi seemed to have become a stranger to him. But after a second, he suddenly roared in excitement, “Mu Yi! I’ve never been sincere to you! I’ve been flattering you just for my family’s interests! But if we can survive today, I will follow you with my whole heart!”

Mu Yi was stunned at first, and then, he burst into laughter, “Hahaha, good brother! Great! You’re my brother from now on! But if we can really survive, I will give you a kick first!”

After the short conversation, Mu Yi and Yan Ming took a look at each other. Then, Yan Ming swallowed a black pill immediately. All of a sudden, his aura surged to the Late-stage of Tao Ancestor. His soul spirit began burning above his head, showing his resolution to fight to the end.

Meanwhile, Mu Yi’s body began cracking. A golden cloud gathered above his head, and a giant, golden dragon soon emerged from it. If Lyu Liang had been there, he would recognize that what Mu Yi was performing was the mature Flying Dragon Method.

Wen Xiaojing was shocked by the sight. With approval in her eyes, she whispered, “It seems that my ability to judge people has declined since I met that silly guy…” In the meantime, a golden pipa emerged in her arms.

“Eh? Interesting! Boss, brothers, let me do this. Anyway, Lyu Liang is not here. And now, ho ho, I will handle these three naive guys within 30 minutes!” An obese man stepped out with a black hammer. He exuded an aura at nearly the G.o.d Ancestor level and shouted, “I’m Death Hammer, the top force for Milord Jue Luo. All of you have to die today! Oh yes, I can’t kill this lady. She’ll be attractive bait!”

“No way!” Mu Yi growled. The next second, both the golden dragon and Yan Ming, who had grown over 10 meters tall, rushed at Death Hammer, at the same time.

“You’re too weak!” Death Hammer sneered. His hammer began s.h.i.+ning with a colorful light as he waved it in front of himself.

“Bang!” In the blink of an eye, the golden dragon was directly cleaved into two halves! Although Yan Ming managed to dodge the attack, he was still hurt by the extraordinary power. After a cry of pain, he spat out blood and was thrown backwards until he fell onto the ground. Clearly, he was heavily injured, and could not fight anymore!

Within a round of fighting, to be exact, within less than a round, they lost the battle!

Mu Yi could not believe what he saw!

Looking at Death Hammer’s scornful face, Mu Yi was completely discouraged! At this moment, he finally realized that courage was not everything.

“Go to h.e.l.l! Pitiful men!” Death Hammer did not plan to spare them. With a flash, the huge hammer split into two smaller ones and shot at Mu Yi and Yan Ming.

Just then, two twiddles on the pipa sounded, and two green flashes appeared in time to defend against the attacks.

“Ah!” Wen Xiaojing spat out blood. But she came to Mu Yi’s side through an instantaneous flash, and took him to Yan Ming’s side. She summoned forth a golden cover to protect the two, while she herself began burning her soul spirit, and rushed forward to fight against the enemy.

“Come in soon! You’re not their match!” Mu Yi finally revived and shouted anxiously.

Wen Xiaojing did not stop. She just turned her head sideways and said with a slight smile, “This cover can only be used three times against that hammer. Don’t step out of it. I will try to hold off the enemy, until he comes…”

Before Wen Xiaojing could finish her words, the hammer struck at her, and her figure disappeared immediately.

When she showed up again, two flashes of green light were aimed at Death Hammer.

“All right! Thanks for saving my energy! You’ve been hurt by the Power of Law and lost half of your strength. Are you really the cleverest female in the Sanctuary?” Death Hammer sneered as he waved his hand to disperse the green light, “Wen Xiaojing, you disappoint me!”

Death Hammer’s words did not discourage Wen Xiaojing. As she dodged the hammer, she summoned out several flashes of green light again.

“Wen… Xiaojing? Brother Yi, is she the one from the Nyu Wa Sanctuary?” Yan Ming murmured.

Mu Yi just stood there in silence and stared at Wen Xiaojing, who had been hurt several times but never gave in.

Just then, the tusked man’s voice sounded, “Death Hammer, enough. I know you have not gone down for years and want to have fun, but this is not the right time. Handle her immediately!”

Death Hammer nodded seriously and disappeared instantly. The next moment, he showed up behind Wen Xiaojing and gave her a tough blow before she could react.

“Bang!” Although Wen Xiaojing dodged at once, she was still knocked onto the ground. She spat out blood once again, and her aura finally became unstable. But when she lifted her head, her eyes were still s.h.i.+ning with resolution. She rose, ready for the next round of fighting.

“Why do you… insist?” Standing not far away from her, Mu Yi asked in shock.

“Why should I give up? I will carry on as long as I’m alive!” Wen Xiaojing smiled softly, revealing an ever tender expression, “This is what a silly man told me.”

Mu Yi was rendered speechless. Seeing Wen Xiaojing’s fearless figure, he gradually regained his faith and strength. Suddenly, he burst out laughing. As tears rolled down his face, he rushed out of the cover. A special gray wisp of soul spirit started to lift from his head.

In the meantime, a giant, ocher dragon emerged in front of Wen Xiaojing. Unlike the golden dragon, this one had two heads and was carrying a tortoisesh.e.l.l. Then, it was in time to defend against the heavy hammer.

“Bang!” A thundering noise could be heard. But to everyone’s surprise, the hammer was flung backward! Immediately, the dragon turned around pounced on Death Hammer!

“This is… Double-headed Earth Dragon?” “This guy is… Kill him!” The tusked man frowned and gave the direct order, “Death Hammer, you handle Wen Xiaojing. The rest of you, kill this guy!”

After summoning out the dragon, Mu Yi became so exhausted that he could not move at all. At this moment, his energy would only allow him to stay in midair.

Within several breaths of time, Death Hammer and the other four men managed to subdue the dragon. Eventually, Mu Yi lost his last hope.

“I… I don’t want to give in… I’m sorry…” Seeing Wen Xiaojing being throttled by Death Hammer, painful tears dripped from Mu Yi’s eyes. Three enemies were rus.h.i.+ng at him, but he could only close his eyes slowly.

Just then, a strange noise could be heard, and Mu Yi suddenly felt himself being carried by something. When Mu Yi opened his eyes, he saw a white figure standing with his back to him. Around this figure, all the three enemies had fearful looks on their faces…

“Ah!” Death Hammer cried out as he was sent flying, together with his huge hammer.

At this moment, another Lyu Liang, who glowed with a golden light, held Wen Xiaojing tightly. He said softly, “Sorry. I’m late. I’ll handle the rest!”

“I knew you would come…” After saying that, Wen Xiaojing fainted directly. The faint smile remained on her face, showing her absolute confidence and relief.

Gently, Lyu Liang put Wen Xiaojing into his cave residence. Then, his figure gradually disappeared.

Just then, the other Lyu Liang in front of Mu Yi suddenly exuded an aura at the Early-stage of G.o.d Ancestor! Right now, he was holding the Xuanyuan sword and a green sword. More importantly, the Divine Mark appeared on his forehead again, glowing with a golden light!

“Thank you for your help!” Lyu Liang nodded slightly at Mu Yi, who appeared to be stupefied. Then, he waved the swords and roared coolly, “b.a.s.t.a.r.ds, go to h.e.l.l!”
