Volume 1, Chapter 30: In the underground cave, beheading the officials of Yecheng.

After untying Li Gao, Ye Tingmu slapped him on the back and said, "I told you, there are no ghosts in this world, right?"

The little monk looked at me with disdain and said, "You are the one who believes there is a ghost, and you are also the one who believes there is no ghost. Yes, yes, yes, you are right."

"Thank you for helping me just now. Your substitution technique is quite useful. Can you teach me?"

He said to Li Gao with a smile in his eyes.

This substitution technique looks a bit like the clone technique of the Uzumaki master. Not only do they look the same, but their strength is also almost the same.

He saw that Li Gao had reached the fourth level of Qidong Realm, and his clone was about the same level at that time.

Li Gao glanced at him and thought to himself, although this guy in front of him is only in the Kaiyuan realm, he saw clearly the sword he used to kill the woman in red, so his strength is extraordinary. Moreover, he almost got killed by him when he was watching the fun last night, so he started to have some ideas.

"It's not impossible. As long as you help me do something, I will teach you."

Ye Tingmu lost interest instantly.

"That's fine."

He wanted to learn this substitution technique just to save his life at the critical moment.

Now you want me to die, no way.

You see, he sneaked here, this matter is not easy.

Li Gao was stunned when he saw how decisive he refused.

"I haven't said anything yet?"

Ye Tingmu interrupted quickly.

"Stop talking about it. I hope our friendship is based on mutual trust, not interests. Do you understand? So I won't agree to it."

Li Gao looked at him, stunned.

What the hell is this? I don’t have any friendship with you. We’ve only known each other for a short time, and I haven’t even considered the fact that you hit me yet.

He clicked his tongue and cursed under his breath.

"ill."

At this moment, there was a sudden sound of footsteps from below the cave, the footsteps echoed, dull and powerful.

The three of them instantly became alert.

Ye Tingmu quickly put out the candle.

"Shh...someone's coming."

The surroundings suddenly became pitch black, except for the sound of footsteps getting closer and closer.

The sound of water dripping on stone was the only sound left, the heartbeats of the three people.

After a while, in addition to the sound of footsteps, the sound of conversation could be heard faintly.

"Why are we wandering around in here in the dark?"

"Stop talking nonsense. The higher-ups told us to check every corner carefully. Three demon slayers came in today."

"We found it, but we can't defeat it either. Isn't this just suicide?"

"Just do it."

As the sound got closer, the dim underground cave began to light up with a faint yellowish color.

Ye Tingmu placed his hand on the hilt of the sword and estimated the distance.

Just as I guessed, there are people living here.

"belch..."

The two of them looked at the little monk at the same time, confused.

What are you doing? Hiccuping at the critical moment.

The little monk covered his mouth, his eyes full of apology.

This sound naturally attracted the attention of the visitor.

They were seen holding torches and drawing their long swords.

"Who?"

Ye Tingmu and Li Gao looked at each other and nodded.

"Do it."

The two men moved at the same time and were ejected instantly, covering a distance of dozens of meters in just a moment.

Swoosh!

The two sword lights flashed a sharp white light under the reflection of the torches.

Before the two men could react, they fell to the ground with blood spilling all over the ground.

The torch also fell to the ground.

Ye Tingmu and Li Gao put away their swords at the same time, showing amazing tacit understanding.

Looking at the two people lying motionless on the ground, Ye Tingmu said calmly, "Are they all dead?"

Li Gao sniffed.

"It seems so."

"Why don't you leave any survivors?"

"I thought you would stay? So..."

"What a pity, otherwise I could have asked."

"What about you? Why don't you hold back?"

Ye Tingmu bent down and picked up the torch on the ground, and replied: "I think the same as you."

At this time, the little monk also came over, looked at the two dead bodies on the ground, and asked: "Why don't you leave any survivors..."

The two glanced at him and didn't reply.

"Amitabha... It seems that Mr. Ye, you guessed it right."

The three of them fell silent as they looked at the corpse on the ground, because the corpse was dressed like a government soldier.

Then this matter cannot be separated from the government.

But the government asked them to come here to kill the snake demon. No one knows what conspiracy is hidden in this.

Ye Tingmu's heart sank. He didn't even know whether he could exchange the Fire Cloud Python head in his demon-slaying card for money.

Looking at the cave in front of him, Ye Tingmu suggested.

"Why don't you go down and take a look."

Li Gao nodded.

"OK."

The cave continued to extend downward, becoming narrower and narrower as one went deeper.

In some places, you need to bend sideways to enter.

As he continued to go deeper, Ye Tingmu found that he was getting closer and closer to the red dot on the system panel.

It seems that this cave extends all the way to the underground river under the water?

The Fire Cloud Dragon should not be able to breathe in water. After all, it is a dragon snake with fire attribute. Could it be that its nest is right below? Is it possible?

Thinking of this, I couldn't help but feel a little more energetic. If I could kill this dragon, this trip would be worth it.

Suddenly, Li Gao, who was walking in front, stopped.

"Shh~"

Ye Tingmu quickly stopped, pricked up his ears and listened carefully.

There are people, and quite a few.

Li Gao turned his head and asked quietly, "Do you want to go further down?"

Ye Tingmu did not answer. Just from what he heard, he knew there were at least ten people inside, and it seemed that they were about to reach the bottom of the cave.

The young monk said, "Since we're here, I think we can go down and take a look. If we can foil the Blood God Cult's conspiracy, it will be a great merit."

Ye Tingmu was speechless. Can the conspiracy of the Blood God Cult be solved by just a few of us?

But he also wanted to go down because the Fire Cloud Dragon was very close to him.

"Brother Ye, what do you think?"

The two looked at him at the same time, as if waiting for his decision.

Ye Tingmu hesitated for a moment, gritted his teeth, and said, "Don't be afraid of shit, let's go. If we meet someone later, if we can't beat them, we will run away. If we can beat them, we will kill them all."

"No one's left alive?"

"Leave nothing behind." He didn't care about the so-called truth. He just wanted to kill the Fire Cloud Dragon, get the fragments of the history book, and then quickly escape from this dangerous place.

"Okay, I'll listen to you."

Ye Tingmu blew out the torch in his hand.

"Walk."

The three of them continued to walk down on tiptoe.

Slowly, a bright light appeared not far away.

A huge underground cave appeared before my eyes.

There was a blue light flashing in the cave, which was emitted by the blue crystals on the stone wall.

The dim cave was illuminated with a little brightness.

Not far ahead of them,

More than a dozen officers and soldiers wearing armor and carrying swords can be seen gathered together in groups of three or four.

Ye Tingmu took a quick look with his spiritual sense, luckily most of these officers and soldiers were at the first level of the Body Tempering Realm and posed no threat.

He looked at the two people behind him.

“Who’s going…?”

The little monk shook his head frantically.

"I can't do that. Buddhism forbids killing."

Ye Tingmu was too lazy to pay attention to him. It’s up to you whether you quit or not.

He turned and looked at Li Gao.

"you go."

"Why?"

Ye Tingmu made up a reason.

"Because you are more handsome, is this an acceptable reason?"

Li Gao's body trembled and he took a deep breath.

"If you say so," he paused.

"Then I must go and see how the Taoist kills them."
