Although Qiao'er was skilled in martial arts, she was still slightly inferior to Xueying Kuangdao.
After a few rounds, they were at a disadvantage.
Chen Qingwan was anxious, but she knew that her martial arts skills were weak and that rashly taking action would only make things worse.
Just then.
A deafening explosion suddenly rang out in the distance, followed by a barrage of gunfire.
"What happened?"
Chen Qingwan was startled and quickly lifted the carriage curtain to look into the distance.
In the distance, dust billowed and flames soared into the sky.
Squads of soldiers dressed in black uniforms and carrying muskets.
They were surging in from all directions, completely surrounding the Asura Cult members.
"It's the musketeer battalion from Shannan County! It's Lord Lu!"
Qiao'er exclaimed in surprise.
Chen Qingwan was overjoyed.
That corrupt official Lu Yan actually showed up; I'm saved.
The appearance of the musketeer battalion completely turned the tide of the battle.
Although the Asura Cult had a large number of followers, they were no match for the power of firearms.
Upon seeing this, the surrounding disaster victims scattered and fled.
Cries and screams filled the air.
The already chaotic scene became even more chaotic.
They were like frightened birds, dodging the splattered blood and falling bullets.
They were terrified that they would be the next victim.
Some who were slower were caught in the chaos and lost their lives innocently.
Blood Shadow Mad Blade was also startled by this sudden turn of events.
Watching his men fall like wheat under the musket fire, his eyes nearly popped out of their sockets.
What the hell is this thing?
A broken stick, two quick blows and a whole bunch of people are dead?
It even makes a sound?
Could it be a legendary spell?
He felt a heat in his crotch, and a foul odor filled the air.
"Please, gods and immortals, have mercy!"
He knelt down with a thud and kowtowed repeatedly.
"I was blind and didn't recognize your greatness. I have offended you, my divine grandfathers. Please, divine grandfathers, have mercy and spare my life!"
He cried and wailed, tears streaming down his face.
"I am a protector of the Asura Cult, known as Blood Shadow Mad Blade. I have an eighty-year-old mother to support and a three-year-old child to raise. I beg you, my immortal grandfathers, to have mercy!"
Lu Yan, mounted on his horse, looked at the Blood Shadow Mad Blade kneeling and begging for mercy, and couldn't help but burst into laughter.
He turned to Lu Fei beside him and asked:
"The Asura Cult? What's that? It sounds like a punk rock organization."
Lu Fei shook his head, looking completely bewildered.
"I do not know."
Lu Yan curled his lip, looking disgusted:
"What a load of rubbish! Blood Shadow Mad Blade? Anyone who didn't know better would think he was Tony the hairdresser at some salon!"
Just then, dust billowed in the distance, and a large group of people came rushing over.
The leader was a burly man with a shiny bald head.
He had a huge string of Buddhist prayer beads around his neck and a face full of fat.
He doesn't look like a nice guy at all.
This person is the leader of the Asura Cult, known as the Evil Buddha.
He was once a monk, but later returned to secular life and gathered a motley crew to form the Asura Cult.
Blood Shadow Mad Blade saw the Evil Buddha as if he had seen a savior.
He scrambled to the evil Buddha and grabbed his leg.
He cried out:
"Master! You've finally arrived! These people... these people are gods! They know magic! Please save me!"
The Evil Buddha listened to Blood Shadow Mad Blade's incoherent description and was filled with doubt.
Is it really that amazing?
He secretly observed Lu Yan and his group, noticing that they were all dressed in black military uniforms.
Holding a strange "stick," they certainly didn't look like ordinary soldiers.
But as the leader of a sect, he couldn't lose face in front of so many followers and Chen Qingwan.
Then, the evil Buddha coughed lightly, put his hands together in prayer, and said to Lu Yan:
“Benefactor, this humble monk is the leader of the Asura Cult, and his Dharma name is Evil Buddha.”
"Qingzhou is currently suffering a great disaster, yet you are here committing murder and arson; this is truly an unjust act."
"I see that you have an extraordinary appearance, benefactor; you must be someone destined for Buddhism. Why not lay down your butcher's knife?"
"Isn't it wonderful to take refuge in Buddha, be a good person, and help all sentient beings?"
Lu Yan almost burst out laughing when he heard these words.
He rolled his eyes and said:
"A good person? You old bald monk, stop pretending!"
"The good monk Tang Sanzang went through eighty-one tribulations before finally attaining enlightenment."
"Bad people can become Buddhas by laying down their butcher knives, so I'll be a good person!"
Lu Yan pulled out his musket and fired a shot at the evil Buddha.
With a loud thud, the evil Buddha fell to the ground, his blood splattering everywhere.
The surrounding Asura cult members were immediately dumbfounded.
Seeing their leader lying in a pool of blood, they were all terrified and stood there dumbfounded.
"The leader...the leader is dead?"
Someone shouted, breaking the eerie silence.
The Asura cult members then realized what was happening and knelt down on the ground.
They trembled, like lambs to the slaughter.
"Grandpa Immortal, have mercy!"
"We'll never do it again!"
"We are willing to surrender!"
...
Lu Yan looked at the Asura Cult members kneeling on the ground as if they were a flock of trembling quails.
This bastard dares to call himself a cult that kills without blinking an eye?
They were clearly a gang of elderly, weak, sick, and disabled beggars.
Some snotty-nosed kids were even gnawing on dirty steamed buns.
Completely bewildered, with no idea what had happened.
An old man with a missing leg, trembling as he held up his cane.
Muttering to himself:
"Grandpa Immortal, please spare me! I am already eighty-three years old and just waiting to be laid to rest..."
