"Oh, you're so arrogant! Are you still in your weak state? Otherwise, why would you be standing here talking nonsense to us? I'm afraid you can't even break this formation right now."
Others spoke tentatively. Ning Yufeng glanced at that person but did not refute. This made the people brought by Ling Yu more confident and they opened their magic weapons eagerly. If they could catch the Silver Wind Cloud-stepping Tiger, they would be recorded in the family tree in the future!
"Then you will know if you bring your head over and try it." Ning Yufeng said this with a smile, his eyes suddenly became fierce, he took the initiative to attack, and the demonic energy burst out like a volcanic eruption.
The faces of the people standing in the front turned slightly pale when they saw this powerful demonic energy.
No wonder it is called a great demon, no wonder the Ling family attaches so much importance to it, such a strong demonic power is indeed not comparable to that of an ordinary great demon!
Ling Yu shouted, "Set up the formation!"
The disciples of the Ling family each occupied a corner and began to transfer power to the center. Ling Yu stood at the center of the formation, sat cross-legged, clasped his hands together, and his eyes flashed.
Seeing this, the others also went forward with courage.
For a moment, colorful forces rose and fell, and rushed towards Ning Yufeng in the middle. Ning Yufeng raised his palms slowly and set up a defense in front of him. His expression did not change when those attacks hit him.
Everyone threw out their magical weapons and headed straight for his head.
This was the scene Lan Shuang saw when she arrived: Ning Yufeng was trapped in a formation by hundreds of people, with demonic power and spells mixed together, about to break through the barrier and overflow.
"This group of people claim to be a reputable and upright group, punishing evil and promoting good, but all they do is bully the minority with their numbers. How shameless!" 888 was also angry when he saw this.
"What's the use of using numbers to bully the few? You don't have enough ability and can't even catch up with the other person's finger." Lan Shuang sneered, then closed his eyes and recited the mantra. Immediately, a faint golden color appeared around him.
"Hey, host, this isn't your demonic power? What's going on?" 888 looked at Lan Shuang in surprise, who seemed to be bathing in divine light.
Lan Shuang said calmly, "This is what I learned in the Immortal Cultivation World while doing a mission. That Immortal Cultivation World was of a higher level, and many spells weren't available here, and there were no restrictions. Once you learned it, you could use it against demons, immortals, or gods. Although I can't fully use it in this low-level world, it's enough."
As she finished speaking, a layer of flowing light golden light appeared on her palm. Lan Shuang's face was stern. She covered the formation with both hands and tore it hard, immediately breaking a hole. Lan Shuang flashed in. The people inside were fighting at a critical moment. When they realized that the formation was broken, they all looked over at the same time.
Ning Yufeng took advantage of this opportunity and suddenly transformed into his true form. The silver tiger appeared and shook the mountains and rivers. He raised his head and let out a long roar, then swung his tail, throwing out several people nearby.
“Ahhhh—”
"Stop him! He's trying to run!"
"Run?" Lan Shuang chuckled, then leaped up on tiptoe and landed on Ning Yufeng's back. She rode on him, nudging the people below, and said coldly, "I should say this to you. If you stay away from the Ling family now and leave immediately, we won't pursue the matter. If you continue to collude with the Ling family, don't blame us for being rude."
"How shameless!" an old Taoist priest with a goatee scolded her. "Who are you to be in league with a great demon?"
"Me? I'm a monster." The cat ears on Lan Shuang's head popped out and shook, and the faces of the people below became even uglier.
One hasn't been dealt with yet, and another one comes. The outcome of today's battle is really unpredictable.
When Ling Yu saw Lan Shuang, his heart skipped a beat. This cat demon was still alive despite being in that state. He was really lucky.
"Do you really think the Ling family sent you here to suppress the great demon and protect the people of this world?"
Lan Shuang stroked Ning Yufeng's fur and looked at the people below with amusement, "You guys are being used as pawns and you don't even know it."
"What nonsense are you talking about? You witch, die!" A young man from the Ling family lost his patience and rushed up to attack Lan Shuang. Ning Yufeng roared and leaped into the air. His agile figure left a beautiful silver arc in the air.
The next moment he landed behind the man and knocked him out with one claw.
"I haven't finished speaking yet, why are you feeling guilty?" Lan Shuang chuckled and sat sideways on Ning Yufeng's back, her clear voice resounding throughout the formation.
"Back then, the ancestor of the Ling family tricked Ning Yufeng and suppressed him under the Demon Locking Tower. Everyone thought this was done to protect the people, but in reality, it was only to satisfy the Ling family's selfish desires. There is a magic under the Demon Locking Tower that absorbs Ning Yufeng's luck and then continuously transfers it to the Ling family. Since then, the Ling family has made great progress, and their feng shui has flourished. They have been constantly raising new talents and have become a powerful family of demon catchers, and they are prosperous to this day."
She paused, tilting her head to look at them emotionlessly, "Haven't you ever had any doubts? Rise and fall are natural laws, and no one can thrive forever. Yet, the Ling family has thrived for thousands of years. Isn't that strange?"
The words awakened many people from their dreams. Their eyes flashed and they subconsciously looked towards Ling Yu who was sitting in charge, with a hint of something wrong in their eyes.
"Don't listen to this cat demon's nonsense. She is in cahoots with Ning Yufeng. She is trying to sow discord. Don't fall for her tricks."
Ling Yu said calmly with a stern face.
Lan Shuang clapped her hands and laughed, "Old Master Ling is worthy of being Old Master Ling. You are so good at pretending. People who don't know you would think you don't know me. When you captured me to sacrifice to the formation, you didn't show this expression."
"What sacrifice? What did you say?"
If their expressions were still good before, they are now completely cold.
There are rules for demon catchers. Not all demons can be caught. If the demon does not do evil and does not harm people, then it is not under their jurisdiction and they cannot take action.
Not to mention catching monsters and offering them as sacrifices, this is a taboo. Unless the monster is recognized as unforgivable, they cannot use this method casually.
Lan Shuang knew what they were thinking without having to guess, and said loudly, "I'm a law-abiding demon, registered with the Administration. I make money through live streaming and have never done anything that harms the world. But in order to suppress Ning Yufeng and maintain their shady activities, the Ling family lured me out, set up a dragnet to capture me, and finally drew my blood and sacrificed my soul in order to make their ancestor appear. If you don't believe me, look at this."
As she spoke, she raised her hand and threw out a card. After injecting a magical power into it, the card flew into the air, projecting all of Lan Shuang's movements and criminal records. There were quite a lot of movement trajectories, but the criminal record was blank.
This is a special ID card made by the Administration and cannot be forged or falsified, so Lan Shuang is truly innocent.
Ling Yu had forgotten about this, and when he saw the evidence before him, his face turned pale.
