I Slay Gods and Demons in the Deceit Night Chapter 249 - 181: Drive off the tiger and swallow the wolf,

All over the city, people were silently watching the top of the tall tower.

One after another, three monstrous demons had climbed up and then plumted down.

"Is that Wu Chang, the current number one prodigy of Qifeng Prefecture, the one who defeated Xu Dingye from the Little Divine Sect?"

An elderly man slightly furrowed his brows.

At this mont, he was sitting in a shop, appearing to be an accountant.

The young man beside him, like a servant of the shop, asked in a low voice, "Shall we make a move?"

"Indeed, a genius blessed by heaven. If this child is left to grow unchecked, there are only two outcos, either he becos the next Sect Hierarch of Tribulation Ash, or he becos our greatest enemy."

The elder set down his pen and said softly, "If this were the outside world, it would be the perfect ti to surround and kill him."

Hearing this, the young man hesitated and asked, "What about now?"

The elder pondered and answered, "Inside an ancient relic, excessive killing can lead to terrible hidden dangers."

The young man, still unsure, said, "Hidden dangers? What hidden dangers do we have to fear?"

"The danger of losing one’s mind, along with the danger of being executed by a ’town object.’"

The elder laughed and said, "Otherwise, I would have long since killed all those who ca from High Willow City. Why bother to hide here and play the part of a commoner in the city?"

He hesitated montarily and then continued, "Since he intends to kill, let him kill... After Master Hai’s death, how many of his n have entered here?"

"Four!"

"Send them up, let him kill."

"Understood."

——

The Blood Slaughter Thunder Blade suddenly slashed down.

Evil Qi increased by eighteen!

That was Tribulation Ash’s internal strong Martial Artist, probably a spy.

"Master, if we’re this high-profile, what if soone we can’t beat cos along?"

"Why do you think I chose the tallest tower?"

"To be more conspicuous?"

"I have always been low-key."

"Is it to commit suicide by jumping off the tower, to avoid disgrace?"

"..."

Lin Yan’s expression turned ugly, and he angrily said, "Idiot! These heights an that if you jump down, you’ll hit the ground quickly, and you can escape quickly!"

As soon as he finished speaking, he swiftly picked up the Little White Ape and leaped backwards off the tower.

A gigantic maw seed to appear from nowhere, biting off the entire top floor of the high tower and chewing it up into fragnts!

It was an enormous python, a hundred yards in length, that had unknowingly coiled around the entire tower and bit off the top layer!

Above its head, a large bulge was swelling, obviously nearing the critical point of transforming into a dragon.

"According to the Observatory’s reports, it was supposed to be the demonic creature dwelling two hundred miles south of Li City!"

"Originally a powerful snake demon, but later it was invaded by a ferocious Evil Spirit, which took over its body, claid a territory, and crowned itself king!"

"Even the Commander of the High Willow City Sky Observation Bureau isn’t confident he could slay it!"

"Mr. Lu once said that when Jinliu Manor was planned for construction, Qifeng Prefecture City offered a large amount of incense to it in advance, just to avoid its destruction of Jinliu Manor!"

"I didn’t expect it to have co here too!"

After landing, Lin Yan ran frantically forward and couldn’t help but look back, thinking to himself, "If I slay it, wouldn’t my Evil Qi be worth upwards of a thousand?"

Thinking this, he turned his head and asked, "Did you find it?"

The Little White Ape replied, "Straight ahead, there’s soone at the peak of the Qi Refining Realm."

In this ancient relic, the only people who could enter at the peak of the Qi Refining Realm without fear of losing control were the high-level mbers of Tribulation Ash!

——

"It’s bad!"

The elder acting as an accountant suddenly turned pale, "He’s coming for ! Does this fellow intend to use to drive the tiger and devour the wolf here?"

He quickly mobilized True Qi, turned around abruptly, and cursed, "Why is it that the past reports always said he was a brute?"

"Isn’t he a brute?"

The young man was startled and looked back.

He saw a man dressed in the uniform of the Observatory running wildly toward him.

Behind him, the giant black-scaled serpent was sweeping forth.

Before the young man could react, a flash of blood-red blade light sliced through the air.

The young man hadn’t even responded when he was cut into two.

Lin Yan passed by him directly, pursuing the elder.

"Are you insane?"

The elder from Tribulation Ash shouted angrily, "Why are you chasing ?"

Lin Yan shouted back, "If you don’t stay behind, how am I supposed to fight it?"

The elder from Tribulation Ash sprinted headlong as the sound of pursuit reached his ears from behind.

Barely dodging, he realized it was a streak of blood-colored blade light, and a chill went through his heart, "Indeed he’s soone from the Qi Refining Realm."

But before he could prepare to counterattack, he saw Wu Chang’s Qi chanism suddenly withdraw and disappear, turning a corner and heading another way.

"..."

The elder hadn’t recovered from his shock when he saw the giant black-scaled serpent already rushing toward him, a peak Qi Refining Realm mber of the Human Clan, looking ready to devour him, causing his pupils to constrict sharply.

——

Two thousand steps away.

Martial Artist finally stopped in his tracks and looked at the fight not far from him, slowly saying, "The people from Tribulation Ash are more familiar with the ancient relics than us. They hide in the shadows, keep silent and out of sight, there must be a reason. We have to stir them up..."

"So when your lordship was so high-profile just now, was it to drive the tiger and swallow the wolf?"

"No."

Martial Artist looked at the blade in his hand and said earnestly, "I truly wanted to kill them all. However, I am not invincible here, so at most, I was probing just now; I also wanted to let Ji Baochang and Lv Tang know where I was..."

"They have co."

The Little White Ape’s eyes flickered, suddenly looking towards the south.

They saw Lv Tang and Ji Baochang running over.

But for so reason, Lv Tang vaguely held the blade behind Ji Baochang.

"Let’s change locations."

Martial Artist waved his hand and took them to hide in a house.

Lv Tang kicked Ji Baochang over with a foot and said angrily, "This kid is very sly. When I found him, he was following a bunch of people from Tribulation Ash."

Ji Baochang was quite helpless and did not offer any defense.

"He calls himself the Black-clothed Chief, searching for your whereabouts, leading those people from Tribulation Ash, ready to assassinate you."

"..." Martial Artist looked over.

"Those from Tribulation Ash, the ones with the highest Cultivation are at the peak of the Refining Essence Realm, they think they can surround and kill the Master with their subordinates," Ji Baochang said with a bit of helplessness, "They believe this is a huge achievent, but the Master’s skill is naturally capable of handling them... My Cultivation is too shallow, I cannot go far alone, I can only use others’ abilities to et up with the Master."

"Then afterwards, you t the people from High Willow City, and they defeated that group from Tribulation Ash. You then took out the flag of the Observatory, claiming to be under Wu Chang’s command?" Lv Tang angrily said, "Playing both sides!"

"This flag I took from Linjiang Station with the Master’s permission," Ji Baochang said, rubbing his forehead, "You can’t really let your own people kill you, right?"

"Also, I followed behind and saw you being scattered by a great demon!" Lv Tang said angrily, "You actually dared to communicate with the demon, saying you wanted to find the number one proud child of the Human Clan in Qifeng Prefecture, and let this demon eat Wu Chang to increase Qi-Blood..."

"Only by saying so would the demon hold expectations of eating the Master, and not swallow in one bite," Ji Baochang said helplessly, "My Cultivation is low. I can only use this thod to make fellows from various sides protect on my way to et the Master."

"You really are talented..."

Martial Artist, upon hearing this, said with so helplessness, "Is this what you ant by having your own ways to protect your life? Is this how you people from Zhao Ye usually conduct your affairs?"

Ji Baochang said, "I know the Master’s true skill. I had already entered the Qi Refining Realm. Otherwise, I wouldn’t dare to lead trouble elsewhere."

He looked towards Lv Tang and said, "You ran into early and could have saved . Following behind the whole ti, what’s the aning of this?"

"..."

Martial Artist felt sowhat speechless.

At this mont, Ji Baochang slowly got up and said, "Having interacted with those people from Tribulation Ash, I have so clues now."

"In the past, the high-ranking mbers of Tribulation Ash would enter this relic at specific tis, having tried many thods."

"Among them, the most suitable thod is to play the role of soone from this town by following the subtle clues."

"This ancient town, I do not know what happened in the past, but it’s extrely strange."

"To enter the deeper parts of the relic, either wait until the number of people is sufficient, and at dawn, when the sun and moon rise together, the path ahead opens."

"Or you impersonate the townspeople and complete the tasks left by their trails."

"Then, before dawn, you can enter deeper into the relic."

Ji Baochang hesitated for a mont then said, "This relic seems to be alive, consciously protecting the original ’residents,’ leading them into the depths ahead of ti."

Little White Ape pondered and said, "So, that guy with the dumpling stall was also planning to impersonate a vendor... But upon discovering the lord’s identity, decided to consu the lord as a rare Great dicine?"

Martial Artist slightly nodded and said, "That does make so sense."

Ji Baochang continued, "But if we impersonate the townspeople, it’s very easy to get caught up in it and forget our own identity."

He hesitated again and said, "Rembering one’s true heart is crucial, otherwise, one will beco part of the relic!"

With that said, he stared at Martial Artist, filled with a look of astonishnt.

Seeing this, Lv Tang also could not help but take a closer look, and his face changed slightly.

"My lord... your eyes..." Little White Ape gasped.

"Hm?"

Martial Artist lifted the Zhao Ye blade and looked at its reflection.

He saw his own eyes, which had beco dark and profound.

Only black, no white.

——

I heard that the County Magistrate himself beca the executioner. When I was going ho, I saw him walking while wiping the blood off his blade.

But his eyes had no whites, all black.

——

That passage from the diary suddenly surfaced in his mind.

"Earlier, when I unsheathed the blade to kill, did I unknowingly play the so-called role of County Magistrate?"

Martial Artist instantly understood in his heart.

But the next mont, an overwhelming murderous intent rose uncontrollably from within him.

He clutched the blade in his hand, almost unable to suppress the killing intent in his heart, wanting to slaughter everything in sight.

Point Cang Spirit Possession!

In an instant, he channeled the murderous intent through the Nirvana Divine Egg and poured it into the Little Divine Sect on the palm of his hand.

The difficult-to-suppress killing intent suddenly cleared.

He exhales, murmuring, "Only those who haven’t been influenced and assimilated are qualified to enter the next level?"

He looked at Lv Tang and Ji Baochang, pondering and saying, "Pretending to be a resident of this town is a way of being actively influenced by the relic."

"But if one forgets oneself and fully becos a town resident, then that’s being assimilated, rging into this relic."

"Only by holding on to one’s true nature, not being assimilated, are you qualified, to shake off the influence of this town and move on to higher places."
