Chapter 24

Since that was the case, there was no use in trying to persuade him further, so they could only start fighting.

“You’re a fairy from the Jade Pure Sect, right? Sorry to offend!”

Cheng Xu signaled Bai Ci’er and the other two with his eyes to ready them to take action.

This time, Xu Lu could no longer pretend. Her expression turned cold, and she twisted Wang Xiaolun’s arm behind her back. Her other hand clutched her captive’s neck, and sharp blood-red nails appeared on her fingertips.

“Don’t move! I’ll kill him if you move again!” Xu Lu’s previous attitude had completely changed, as if she was a different person.

Cheng Xu and the other three had no choice but to stop.

“Interesting~ How did a little man like you find out that I wasn’t a cultivator from the Jade Pure Sect?” Xu Lu looked at Cheng Xu with great interest, her eyebrows were full of charm.

“…”

“Why not ask yourself if your disguise was so full of flaws?” Cheng Xu laughed mockingly.

“Interesting~” Xu Lu sneered as she replied, “I didn’t expect to meet the disciples of one of the four sects of the righteous path on a casual trip. I wanted to play with you more, but I never expected you to be so unromantic.”

“Stop talking nonsense and release him!” Cheng Xu said coldly.

“Ya, ya, ya! Are you threatening me? When I’ve captured the only Early-stage Foundation Building cultivator in your group?” Xu Lu sneered. “Can you Peak-stage Qi Refining cultivators even fight me?”

That made Bai Ci’er and the other two look at each other, their expressions grave.

Only Cheng Xu’s expression did not change. Because victory was in his hands.

At the same time, Wang Xiaolun, who had a dazed look in his eyes, gradually woke up. After which, he was trembling in fear. “Fairy? Bah! Demoness, can’t we just talk about this? In the first place, it wasn’t right for you to lie like that.”

“Shut up!” Xu Lu shouted coldly, which immediately shut Wang Xiaolun up.

Although he didn’t know what had just happened, he could feel that his meridians had been sealed by a special force, and he couldn’t resist at all.

“If you want to save your friend, that’s fine too. Little man Cheng, as long as you obediently crawl to my feet, I might just give him a chance to escape.”

Cheng Xu simply rolled his eyes.

However, Wang Xiaolun seemed to be holding on this as a life-saving straw. “Brother Cheng, as the saying goes, a man should be flexible! When we go back, I will definitely give you a satisfactory compensation.”

“By the way, have you woken up yet?” Cheng Xu suspected that this guy was still in a state of bewitchment.

“Stop hesitating! Your brother’s life is more important.”

Cheng Xu was too lazy to pay attention to him any longer. He sized up this demonic woman in front of him with a faint smile before saying, “To be honest, I’ve only known this guy for a few days. We don’t have much of a friendship. If you want to kill him, feel free to do so.”

“What?” Xu Lu couldn’t help but be a little confused.

‘Not even bothering to save his teammates? This didn’t seem like the style of a righteous cultivator!’

Wang Xiaolun felt even more anxious. “Brother Cheng, don’t talk nonsense! I’ve worked hard along the way. Even If I have offended you in any way, please don’t say such things!”

“Cough, cough! Senior Brother Wang of the Scorching Sun Sect risked his life and died together with a demonic woman.” Cheng Xu looked at Bai Ci’er and the other two with a righteous expression. “Why don’t we all attack together and avenge Senior Brother Wang?”

“D-don’t, Brother Cheng, let’s talk this out!” Wang Xiaolun was so scared that he was almost crying.

Yue Yang and Han Yue were also confused,”If it’s like this… This isn’t too good, is it?”

However, Cheng Xu secretly gave them a look. Han Yue and Yue Yang seemed to understand something and immediately surrounded the demonic woman.

Seeing this, Wang Xiaolun looked like he’d lost all hope.

Although he knew that he was very annoying, there was no need to treat him like this, right?!

Xu Lu was stunned by their actions. “You don’t care about the life and death of your teammates? You righteous people are really meddlesome hypocrites! Since that’s the case, this Great Aunt of yours will play with you.”

As she spoke, her blood Qi surged as she was about to stab Wang Xiaolun’s throat.

“Now!”

At the critical moment, Cheng Xu’s eyes suddenly turned into deep black holes, causing Xu Lu to fall into a temporary daze.

Then, he stepped forward and kicked her away, saving Wang Xiaolun.

Wang Xiaolun, who was still wailing in despair just a second ago, reacted with another next kick. He was overjoyed! “Hahaha, my Brother Cheng is amazing!”

“Cut the crap and prepare for battle. Don’t let this demoness escape! Capture her alive,” Cheng Xu snapped.

“Don’t worry!” Wang Xiaolun sneered at Xu Lu, “I’ll let her know what true cruelty is!”

Then, he threw his flying sword at Xu Lu.

Bai Ci’er and the other two didn’t waste any words and started to attack her as well.

Yue Yang held an array board in his hand and immediately set up an array in the surroundings to prevent the demoness from escaping. At the same time, he casually struck out a Lightning Palm.

However, just as everyone’s attacks were about to hit this wicked witch, a familiar blood-colored bronze bell rushed out from her body and blocked everyone’s attacks.

“It’s that Bell again?!” Bai Ci’er naturally recognized the bronze bell immediately.

Knowing how powerful the bronze bell was, her expression turned serious.

At the same time, the demoness, Xu Lu, had also woken up. Obviously, she did not expect to fall into Cheng Xu’s trap. “You twerp! You actually had a divine sense attack eye technique!”

“Poison!”

Cheng Xu didn’t want to waste his breath on her and immediately used Venomous Speech.

Xu Lu, who was about to control the bronze bell to fight against the crowd, turned purple in an instant. She stared at Cheng Xu in disbelief as if she had just seen a ghost. “What the hell is this move?”

“Demoness, weren’t you very arrogant just now?” Wang Xiaolun, the emancipated serf, gleefully chided, “Why aren’t you arrogant anymore?”

Xu Lu took out a few Blood Magic Pills and swallowed them. Her whole body was instantly shrouded in blood qi before her aura kept rising abruptly.

Then, the bronze bell that kept on floating around her easily blocked Wang Xiaolun’s flying sword.

“Today, I’ll get to experience you bunch of righteous disciples of Little Southern Heaven!”

After saying that, she struck out with a Blood Cotton Palm, and a strong blood qi surged around his body.

But she was still held in place by Cheng Xu’s Poison Ivy.

Bai Ci’er and Han Yue followed closely behind, their sword techniques and fire tornadoes attacking at the same time.

BOOM!

The blood qi that erupted from the bronze bell easily shattered Poison Ivy and dispersed the attacks from the crowd.

“You do have some strength.” Xu Lu chuckled before suddenly summoning her flying sword to attack Wang Xiaolun.

When Cheng Xu saw this, several streams of water gushed out and surrounded her.

At that moment, Xu Lu finally understood that the most powerful one among the five people in front of her was not Wang Xiaolun, but Cheng Xu, who she had been calling a little man.

“You want to trap me with this trivial ability? Dream on!”

She then swallowed a few more Blood Demon Pills which made the blood qi in her body boil even more. Then a tiny blood needle shot out from between her eyebrows, which instantly pierced through the water curtain of the mysterious water spell, and ended up pointing directly at Cheng Xu’s head.

The blood needle moved so fast that Cheng Xu had no time to dodge it. He hurriedly put up his Protective Dipper Energy to block it.

Bang! Bang!

However, the third level of his Protective Dipper Energy was also pierced through by the blood needle like it was merely a bubble.

At that critical moment, a small sword broke through the air and blocked the blood needle. And at the same time, the small sword was also broken into two pieces.

Cheng Xu looked back with lingering fear and realized that it was Wang Xiaolun who had saved him.

“You saved me once and I saved you once. We’re even now!” Wang Xiaolun looked at the broken sword on the ground with a pained expression. He pursed his lips and said, “By the way, can you use that divine sense attack of yours again?”

“Sure.” Cheng Xu nodded coldly and immediately activated his Evil Eye of Ten Thousand Laws to look at Xu Lu.

Unfortunately, Xu Lu had already learned her lesson. She did not even dare to look Cheng Xu in the eye. After the bronze bell had accumulated enough power, it released a terrifying blood-red shock wave and successfully shattered his mysterious water spell.

Just as she was about to retreat on her sword, a layer of light appeared above her and blocked her way. It was the array that Yue Yang had set up behind her.

“Damn it–!”

After everything that had happened, Xu Lu was starting to panic. She hurriedly took out a hairpin-like magic treasure, wanting to break the formation.

Unfortunately, Cheng Xu and the others’ attacks had already arrived again.

Han Yue released a series of golden talismans that surrounded Xu Lu and released electric shocks at her.

Bai Ci’er’s sword moves circulated, and her sword qi condensed into ice lotuses, covering her in a layer of frost.

Wang Xiaolun was even more ruthless as he directly condensed all of his true core strength into his flying sword and shot it out.

Buzzzzzz! Buzzzzzz! Buzzzzzz!

The bronze bell blocked everyone’s attacks and buzzed. It was already showing signs of decline.

In the end, Cheng Xu was forced to use the True White Flame Technique, which made a pale white fireball with a tinge of red hurtle forward.

Bang! Bang!

The bronze bell finally couldn’t hold on any longer and its glow dulled.

Xu Lu still wanted to resist, but Cheng Xu’s incantation of “Qi” shook her to the point that her breath became chaotic. In the blink of an eye, she was drowned by the attacks of the crowd.

“How could this be …”

As the smoke cleared, Xu Lu could be seen laid on the ground, her clothes ragged, gradually losing consciousness.

…

When she opened her eyes again, she was already tied to a tree, and her meridians were sealed.

And in front of her was Wang Xiaolun, who was rubbing his hands excitedly and swallowing his saliva non-stop.

“Oh? You’re finally awake, little demon girl?” Wang Xiaolun’s eyes lit up.

Cheng Xu and the others, who were busy counting their spoils of war, also came over and sized-up this demoness with a mocking expression.

“Tell me, what is your identity in the Blood Demon Church? Where is the stronghold of your cult in the Heluo Kingdom? What kind of shady business have you guys been doing?” Cheng Xu raised his eyebrows and asked.

However, Xu Lu did not answer any of them. Instead, she started to flirt with Cheng Xu. “Ya~ Handsome boy, you’re a serious type, eh~?Aren’t you going to take advantage of this sister first before asking all these questions?”

“Cut the crap and tell me the truth!” Cheng Xu said with obvious disdain.

“What if I don’t want to?” Xu Lu had a smile that was not a smile, and her eyes were full of seduction.

Seeing this, Wang Xiaolun immediately volunteered, “Leave her to me! I’m the best at interrogating female criminals.”

Cheng Xu glanced at him in annoyance, “If you’re not afraid of being squeezed dry by this demoness, you can do whatever you want.”

“Uh, then forget it.”

Although Wang Xiaolun’s heart was raring to scratch a certain itch, he still cared more about keeping his own life.

“Little cutie, why don’t you try me out yourself? Let’s see if I can squeeze you dry.”

Xu Lu looked a bit angry and embarrassed at Cheng Xu.

From their captive’s retort, Bai Ci’er couldn’t help but say, “She really is a demonic woman! She has no sense of shame.”

“It’s only natural for men and women to love each other, so what’s there to be ashamed of?” Xu Lu laughed coquettishly. She wasn’t ashamed but proud! “I’m afraid you haven’t tasted a man yet, have you? Why don’t this big sister here teach you some techniques~?”

“Moreover, you are so beautiful. It would be a pity if no one ever loves you. There are many strong men in the Blood Demon Church. I can introduce you to them.”

Bai Ci’er’s face and ears turned red at her proposition, and she silently skedaddled to the side to hide.

On the other hand, Wang Xiaolun became so excited that he kept swallowing his saliva.
