Chapter 226 Escape
Jing'e's proposal to replace him was rejected. The people from Mingyu Palace who returned to the city suggested, "Why not bring Yu Jiaoyun to the city wall to threaten the Demon Lord? When he sees that his only disciple is injured, he will no longer ignore it!"
Jing'e stared at the person who spoke, and couldn't help but kick him angrily, "What if he wants to use the same method against my disciple?!"
The man covered his chest and dared not say a word. No one else dared to speak either. Jing'e's violent look was scary, and it seemed like he could beat others up to vent his anger at any time.
That night, the Demon Lord and the four demon lords once again went to the outskirts of Huaiyang City to organize a large number of demon soldiers to attack the city.
A group of people quietly took a long detour and sneaked to the rear of the demons, then quietly dispersed along a road to various corners of the dark area of the tent.
This group of people moved with extreme skill, just like a group of assassins hiding in the darkness waiting for their chance to strike.
The leader held a shrunken leopard and quickly avoided the crowd and walked towards a tent. During the process, he gave a look and the other companions took their positions and cooperated tacitly.
Mu Qi leaned on the bed holding the little fox. The Demon Lord had stopped tying her up these days, so she finally had some freedom. When he saw her holding the fox, he just thought it was her pet and didn't care about her.
Suddenly, there was a slight sound outside the tent. Mu Qi frowned and became alert. Then he saw Yue You's familiar handsome face.
Her eyes lit up in surprise, and she whispered, "Why are you here? It's too dangerous!"
Yueyou came over and held her hand, glancing at the fox in her arms, "I've brought people to rescue you, come with me!"
Mu Qi held the fox on his waist with one hand and said anxiously, "This is the lair of the demon clan!"
"Hey, master." The shrunken Fire Cloud Leopard greeted and was glared at by Mu Qi.
"Why did you call my Yueyou here when it's so dangerous?" Mu Qi said to Huoyunbao.
Fire Cloud Leopard felt wronged, "He insisted that I bring him to rescue you."
Mu Qi looked unhappy, "Oh, forget it."
Yue You couldn't help but come over and kiss Mu Qi's rosy lips, not noticing that the fox's eyes widened instantly.
He left as soon as he touched her, and said softly, "Don't be afraid, we have experience, and the Demon Lord is not here."
At this point, Mu Qi had no choice but to hold his hand and carefully follow him. When she came out of the tent and saw the two maids fallen to the ground, she just glanced at them and quickly followed Yue You.
She was led along a road. As they walked along the road, her companions hiding in the dark acted swiftly, killing the demon soldiers who had been targeted in advance one by one with one sword. The whole process was silent.
Mu Qi glanced at the tent that was getting farther and farther away. It was a quiet journey, and he wondered in his heart why the people in the demon base were so careless?
As they were about to leave the Demon Clan's base camp, a commotion began to break out behind them. "Oh no! The female cultivator that the Demon Lord brought back is missing!"
Five or six people suddenly appeared from the darkness and said to Yue You, "We've been discovered, run!"
Mu Qi was startled when she saw the people who suddenly appeared, and immediately realized that they were the people Yue You brought to save her. They were too good at hiding. She wouldn't have noticed them if they hadn't appeared in front of her.
A group of people surrounded Mu Qi in the middle and ran. Mu Qi was flying in the air, and he did not forget to stick a thousand-mile talisman on the fleeing group of people, making them run much faster.
However, the demons chasing behind them, although not as powerful as the Demon Lord, were still one level higher than Mu Qi and the others, and they were chasing them very quickly.
The two groups were getting closer and closer. Mu Qi turned around and kept throwing runes, but he was unable to create much distance between them and was soon caught up again.
The demons behind them attacked, and Mu Qi and his companions could not avoid it, so they had to turn around and fight back. The Fire Cloud Leopard also enlarged its body and became an important fighting force.
The fox that Mu Qi was holding suddenly turned around and pounced on the demons. It cut one of them's neck with one claw. Blood gushed out of the huge wound, and he soon died and fell to the ground.
"Damn it!" The demons didn't expect a fox to have such great killing power. They clearly discovered that it was a small pet beast that had not yet reached the Divine Transformation Stage.
When Chen Jian came out of the demon world, Chen Yu had already put on a magical weapon that could change his aura. He unexpectedly scratched two people. By the time the other side reacted, he had already returned to Mu Qi's shoulder, waiting for the next sneak attack.
Mu Qi let the fox hang on her, and she held the Tianhong Sword with great momentum as she faced the demon who was one level more powerful than her.
"Crack~", the Tianhong Sword faced the sword on the opposite side, and the sword broke under the magic sword. Mu Qi immediately slapped the demon away.
Yue You's aura was dangerous and calm, his sword moves were agile and fierce, like the most ferocious beast hiding in the darkness, and he even had the upper hand against the demon that was stronger than him.
The others were just as powerful and each of their moves was fierce.
However, these demons were too numerous and too powerful, and Mu Qi and his companions gradually became exhausted, and the Fire Cloud Leopard was also gasping for breath.
"Qiqi, we are here!"
What followed was Du Chuanting's voice, so abrupt and surprising.
Mu Qi slapped a demon away with a sword, turned around and saw Nan Que, Min Haojue, Zheng Xiao, Chong Lian and other six companions who had done the mission together flying towards him and landing beside him.
"Brother Beifeng, we can fight side by side again!" Zheng Xiao shouted with a laugh.
"Don't be afraid, let's beat them together!" Jiang Yuan spoke very manly.
Mu Qi's eyes were slightly hot, and his lips slowly curled up, "Brothers! The mission is difficult! You must save your life!"
"Bah! You're a dog!"
The mercenary fellows cursed and fought with the demon soldiers. The group that had completed the mission cooperated well, formed a circle in twos and threes, left their backs to their own people, and focused on dealing with the demons on the opposite side.
Yue You and his companions each made dangerous moves independently, often catching the demon off guard and severely injuring it. Sometimes, in order to kill the demon with one blow, they would completely ignore the sword that was about to pierce the abdomen and would kill the opponent even at the risk of injuring themselves. The ferocity of their moves scared the demon.
With the help of a group of friends, the demons were quickly beaten away.
After a while of optimism, a large number of demons arrived behind them. The group slapped the demons in front of them and they all turned their heads and screamed as they ran for their lives.
It was full of vigor and vitality the previous second, but lost all momentum the next, like a swarm of fleeing bees buzzing. The Fire Cloud Leopard was also in a panic, running like a dog with its mouth panting.
As they were running, a large group of demons flew over from the front, and another group of demons followed behind them. The group of people looked terrified!
It’s over!
This group of demons must have heard the news on the battlefield and ran back to intercept!
There are wolves in front and tigers behind, it's dangerous!
The group turned around and ran to the left, but after they had taken a few steps, they felt a heavy pressure from the front, which stopped them in their tracks.
"Mu Qi, where are you going with that group of men?" Tingzhu's voice fell faintly.
Mu Qi raised his head in surprise, but suddenly looked past Tingzhu and saw a happy expression behind him, "Master!"
Tingzhu sensed danger and quickly flew away. Jing'e's tall figure fell where he had just stood.
Jing'e tilted his head slightly to look at Yanmuqi, and breathed a sigh of relief, "I'm glad you're okay."
Tingzhu attacked and Jing'e quickly fought with him.
Jing'e took the Demon Lord away, but the situation of having a wolf in front and a tiger behind remained unchanged. Mu Qi's heart was up and down all night, and the stimulation was too much for his heart to bear.
She was panicking as she looked at the two dark groups of demon soldiers in front and behind her. Then she saw the back of her senior brother, who made her feel very safe, falling in front of her, and she breathed a sigh of relief.
In the initial attack of the fusion, a large number of demons were repelled.
At the same time, Jing Chengyi and Chang Wu fell to the other side of Mu Qi and his group, facing another group of demons who came from the base camp.
There are not only three senior brothers, they also brought several other powerful senior brothers from the sect, and they protected the talented disciples of their own sect themselves.
In a blink of an eye, the short stretch of road became another battlefield.
