Chapter 53: Quickly Transmigrate! Conquer the Handsome Demon King (59)
"If you want to catch us, it depends on whether you have the ability to do so!"
At this critical moment, an idea flashed through my mind.
I took a deep breath and said to Liang Xu and the Wind Bell Fairy, "I have a solution."
The large army led by Elder Xuanfeng and Marshal Chimo has surrounded the cave tightly.
The shouts of killing shook the sky, and the murderous atmosphere filled the entire forest.
They were sure we were in the cave, and they all had determined smiles on their faces.
I pulled Liang Xu and the Wind Bell Fairy, held our breath, and sneaked silently into a hidden passage deep in the cave.
The passage was narrow and damp, and the air was filled with a suffocating stench.
We crawled forward with difficulty. The rocks on both sides of the passage were so cold that they seemed to absorb the warmth from our bodies.
I don't know how long it took, but I finally saw a ray of light.
We climbed carefully out of the passage and found ourselves on the edge of a steep cliff.
The wind was howling and beneath my feet was a bottomless abyss.
"This is..." The Wind Bell Fairy was still in shock.
I pointed to a faint light in the distance and said, "That is the teleportation array leading to the neutral zone. Only there can we escape the pursuit."
Liang Xu stared at me, held my hand tightly, and said firmly: "Let's go!"
Suddenly, Elder Xuanfeng roared from behind: "They are there!"
I looked back and saw countless immortal cultivators and demons rushing towards us like a tide, surrounding us on the edge of the cliff.
I took a deep breath and slowly walked to the edge of the cliff, letting the strong wind ruffle my hair.
Both groups of people suddenly quieted down, and hundreds of eyes fell on me at once, as if they wanted to see through me.
Elder Xuanfeng had a sneer of contempt on his face, while Marshal Chimo looked impatient.
I opened my mouth, and the sound was not loud, but it was clearly heard by everyone.
"You guys, are you really going to continue like this?" I pointed at the bottomless cliff behind me, my tone was so calm that it was a little scary, "For the so-called distinction between good and evil, for hundreds of years of hatred, are you going to force us, all of us, into a dead end?"
My eyes swept across the faces that were either angry or puzzled, and I slowly told the experiences that Liang Xu and I had gone through, how we went from being enemies to knowing each other, and how we discovered the truth hidden behind the so-called battle between good and evil.
I talked about Liang Xu's efforts to protect the people of the demon world, and also talked about how the world of immortal cultivation is not a monolithic society, and not everyone is obsessed with killing.
My voice was sometimes low and sometimes passionate, and every word seemed to carry magic, echoing in the valley.
I could feel that the eyes of some immortal cultivators began to flicker, and the hands of some demon soldiers holding their weapons gradually loosened.
Elder Xuanfeng's expression became increasingly gloomy, and a hint of panic flashed across Marshal Chimo's eyes.
At this moment, Liang Xu walked up to me, demonic energy surging around him, but it was not an attacking posture, but rather a protective barrier.
He looked at everyone and said in a firm tone: "I, Liang Xu, swear in the name of the Demon King that I am willing to coexist peacefully with the immortal world and jointly protect this continent!" His voice carried a powerful magic that shocked everyone present.
In the Red Demon Marshal's camp, a demon general spoke hesitantly: "Marshal, the Demon King is right, we..."
The Scarlet Demon Marshal turned his head suddenly and glared at him fiercely.
The demon general fell silent immediately, but he could not conceal the turmoil in his eyes.
I turned to look at Liang Xu, and there was a determined light in his eyes.
I reached out and held his cold fingers.
His hand trembled slightly, and he held my hand, interlocking our fingers.
"We..." I spoke again, and everyone's eyes were focused on me again.
My heart was beating fast and my palms were sweating slightly, but I still looked at Liang Xu firmly, "We..."
we……
I took a deep breath, gathered all my courage and faith in this moment, held Liang Xu's hand tightly, and continued firmly: "We... are willing to use our lives to prove that the world of immortal cultivation and the world of demons can coexist peacefully!"
My voice echoed through the valley, as if awakening long-lost hope.
I saw the evil spirit around Liang Xu gradually subside, and his originally cold eyes became more gentle and firm.
His hand squeezed mine tightly, as if to tell me that no matter what happened, he would fight alongside me.
The tense atmosphere around began to ease, and the hostility of the cultivators and demons was slowly dissipating.
The eyes of the Wind Bell Fairy were filled with admiration and emotion. She said softly, "Feng Ziang, Liang Xu, you... did a great job."
Elder Xuanfeng showed a hesitant expression on his face, and his eyes scanned us back and forth, as if he was weighing something.
The Red Demon Marshal's eyes were no longer so fierce, and his fists loosened slightly, as if they were shaking.
At this moment, Liang Xu spoke again, his voice firm and powerful: "I, Liang Xu, swear in the name of the Demon King that I am willing to coexist peacefully with the Xiuxian world and jointly protect this continent!"
His oath was like a powerful magic that shocked everyone present.
A demon general in the Red Demon Marshal's camp spoke hesitantly: "Marshal, the Demon King is right, we..."
The Scarlet Demon Marshal turned his head suddenly and glared at him fiercely, but the demon general's eyes were full of determination.
The people around also began to respond. The Shadow Assassin and the Dark Demon wanted to object, but they were suppressed by the crowd. Their voices seemed so weak at this moment.
Elder Xuanfeng finally spoke, with a hint of helplessness in his tone: "Maybe... we really should rethink all this."
The atmosphere on the scene gradually became relaxed, and the lingering tension between the cultivators and the demons finally began to dissipate.
Laughter and discussion rose and fell, as if all hostility had disappeared at that moment.
At this moment, I suddenly felt a chill rising from my spine and an ominous premonition came over me.
I looked into the distance warily, and saw a mysterious force quietly watching us from the horizon. That force seemed to be hiding a deeper secret.
I held Liang Xu's hand tightly and whispered, "Be careful, someone is spying on us in secret. This is not the end..."
I felt Liang Xu's hands suddenly tighten and interlock our fingers.
Demonic energy surged around him, like a ferocious beast about to awaken; dangerous yet reassuring.
The dark clouds in the sky rolled more and more fiercely, and the sense of being peeped became stronger and stronger, like a cancer attached to the bone, cold and sticky.
The laughter stopped abruptly, and a suffocating depression filled the air.
I clenched the sword in my hand, my knuckles turned white, and cold sweat oozed from my palms.
The people who had been so happy just now now had different expressions, some confused, some wary, some scared...
Various emotions intertwined together, making this strange atmosphere even more intense.
"Feng Ziang! Why don't you come here quickly! It's disgraceful to get entangled with this devil!" Elder Xuanfeng's voice was like thunder, making my eardrums buzz.
