Chapter 408: The two teams fight
Fei Lian finally returned to the city and was just about to relax, but he didn't expect that the Grand Marshal would send someone to assign him another task.
Although Fei Lian did not like the old man Da Sima, Da Sima was Fei Lian's superior and the orders he issued were military orders, so he had to obey them no matter how reluctant he was.
But Fei Lian, who was cursing at first, immediately put his unhappiness behind him when he heard that they were going to capture Wu Minjun.
Wu Min-kun! Ha!
This old man who was always looking for good things has ruined many of his good deeds. Today he is finally doomed. If he is caught by himself, the Demon Lord will be very happy. Maybe his official rank can be promoted. In the future, that stinky woman, Yinghuan, will be inferior to him. Just thinking about it makes people happy.
However, things didn't go as smoothly as Fei Lian had imagined. He followed the route given by the Great Sima, but didn't see a single soul. After passing the Ghost Market, not to mention Wu Min Jun, he didn't even see a wandering soul. Fei Lian was so angry that he cursed.
However, what I didn't expect was that just when I was about to reach the river, I actually saw a few living people. Upon closer inspection, they were familiar faces.
"Alright, alright. I didn't catch Wu Min-jun, but I've captured you guys. That's enough to report to His Majesty."
Fei Lian was carrying a sickle that was twice as big as his own, sitting on a monster with a rat face and a leopard body, staring at Long Qi and his group with an evil smile.
Sang Mu thought to himself that this was not good. As expected, whatever you worry about will come true.
Those two teams of demon soldiers alone were enough to give them a hard time, not to mention Fei Lian, one of the four demon generals in the demon world.
Long Qi recognized Fei Lian immediately. When the demons had stormed the Wuji Palace, this little guy had caused him so much trouble. Later, through Wu Ji, Long Qi realized that it was fortunate that Ling Xiang had given him the Hanyu Pill, otherwise he would have been killed by this little guy.
The so-called "fear" is a unique ability of the demon race, essential for cultivation. The deeper the fear, the higher the level of cultivation, just like the spiritual energy required by mortals for cultivation. As this "fear" accumulates, it not only increases combat power, but also releases an aura that can intimidate and even harm enemies, just like "jutsu".
As for Xinyi, no one knew Fei Lian better than he did. He had been bullied by Fei Lian many times when he was a child in the demon army camp.
Although Fei Lian was short, resembling a six-year-old, he was renowned for his ruthlessness. If anyone in the camp said something that offended him, he would torture them to death. This was only true for his own people; for ordinary mortals, the punishment would be far more than just torture.
The horrible appearance of Shao Xunxun's family that they encountered at Nan Huailong's house was originally caused by Fei Lian, and was later widely inflicted by the demons on mortals who resisted.
Another person who knew something about Fei Lian was Zhan Li. Although he had never had the chance to meet him, Zhan Li was a demon after all. He had been told since childhood that when encountering a demon general, he should stay as far away as possible, especially the General Fei Lian in front of him.
General Fei Lian's notoriety was known to everyone in the demon world, and even ordinary demon families would often use him to scare their children. Demons, with their souls being imperfect, were supposedly immune to insanity, as they lacked hearts. However, it was said that a demon prisoner was driven insane by Fei Lian's torture, demonstrating his ruthlessness and viciousness.
The four of them were worried in their hearts, but the others didn't understand and were on high alert. Only Adao saw that the situation was not good and quietly transformed into a demon and hid in Long Qi's sleeve.
Seeing them like this, Fei Lian sneered, "What are you waiting for? Hurry up!" Then he lay down on his mount with a look of disdain and said, "Catch him alive!"
Upon receiving the order, the two teams of demon soldiers immediately rushed forward and surrounded Long Qi and his companions. All of them had fierce expressions, some grinning, some glaring, and their faces were ferocious and terrifying.
Long Qi and the others didn't seem to be afraid, especially Liu Xia. They had been searching for Banxia's soul for years and had seen all kinds of monsters. How could they be scared by just a few demons?
But Zhao Wuyang was a little scared. After all, he had always been under Xinyi's care. What he had encountered in the past few years were at most zombies. How could they be like these ferocious and weird-looking demons in front of him?
Chi Yanzi patted Zhao Wuyang on the shoulder. Under his concerned eyes, Zhao Wuyang slowly calmed down.
I've already made the decision, so how can I be so timid? Even if I can't share the burden with my brothers, I can't hold them back!
The dark world was filled with fog, which made the atmosphere even more tense. But Fei Lian started laughing at this moment, and the child's laughter echoed everywhere, which was particularly strange.
Suddenly, the laughter stopped. Fei Lian shook his little hands and made a soft "bang" sound. The demon soldiers rushed up and pounced on Long Qi and his companions like evil spirits.
In the mist, there were flashes of swords and the clanging of weapons. Although Long Qi and his companions did not show their true abilities, they were still fully prepared to deal with the situation.
There's still a long way to go. I can't just use all my strength now, right? Besides, there's Fei Lian. If I use up all my strength now, how can I deal with him?
At the beginning, several people were gathered together, but as the moves went back and forth, they dispersed. Now one person has to deal with three or four demon soldiers, and even if they want to take care of each other, they are powerless.
Don’t underestimate these people as they are just soldiers. They are all demons after all. Every move they make is extremely ruthless. When they fight, they are determined to kill. How could they care about Fei Lian’s orders?
After all, Chi Yanzi was a few years older than him. He knew that if they continued to fight like this, their physical strength would inevitably collapse. As the saying goes, "to capture the thief, you must first capture the leader." For now, the best strategy was to capture Fei Lian.
After thinking it over, Chi Yanzi twisted his fingers and performed a technique of invisible form, leaving an illusory body to confuse his opponent, and then pinched his fingers to cast an invisibility spell, then drew out the Cizhu sword and quietly approached Fei Lian.
Seeing Fei Lian right in front of him, Chi Yanzi raised his sword and was about to stab him, but things did not go as he wished. After all, he still underestimated this little boy.
Although Fei Lian seemed to be lying comfortably on his mount, he had actually shrouded everyone in his fear from the very beginning, so he had long noticed Chi Yanzi's actions, but had been pretending not to know.
Chi Yanzi's mistake was to judge a person by his appearance, completely forgetting that the other party was a demon general who had commanded a group of demon soldiers for hundreds of years. How could he not have any schemes at all?
Just as Chi Yanzi was about to thrust his sword, the mount under Fei Lian raised its head and bit the Cizhu sword.
Although this monster was a mount, it was still a demon after all. Black air was coming out of its mouth as it bit the sword, but it did not let go. It tilted its head and easily bit off the Cizhu Sword.
Fei Lian opened his eyes slightly, glanced at Chi Yanzi lazily, and a wicked smile appeared at the corner of his mouth. Seeing this, Chi Yanzi thought it was not good, but it was too late.
The monster spat out the broken sword, twisted its body, and lashed out its huge leopard tail towards Chi Yanzi.
If you are hit by this tail, you will be seriously injured!
A strong wind blew in his face, but Chi Yanzi had no time to dodge!
Just when Chi Yanzi thought he couldn't escape and raised his arms to resist, the monster with a rat head and a leopard body suddenly stopped. Turning his head, he saw that Cheng Yu had wrapped the monster's tail with the Thunder Stick!
