"Who's making a ruckus?" The heretics walked over, braving the flames and emitting murderous auras as they entered the bamboo cage.

"No, no, my lord, my eyes are blurry …" The person who had reported the message was terrified. He wanted to speak the truth, but he didn't dare to because he suspected that his eyes were playing tricks on him.

Many people were awakened and trembled in fear. The cult was like a butcher, while he himself was like a lamb waiting to be slaughtered. How could the butcher return empty-handed after entering the pigsty?

"Hmm? So you're trying to mislead the masses, are you trying to confuse us all so that you can take the opportunity to cause trouble? " One of the leaders of the evil cult approached and sized up the civilian. Suddenly, he laughed sinisterly and waved his hand, "Pull it down, concoct pills with your internal organs and sacrifice your head as a sacrifice."

"Yes sir!"

Two or three heretics immediately took action, dragging the civilian out of the cage like a dead dog.

Ah!

Miserable screams rang out. The faces of the commoners all turned pale and their bodies trembled. They were angry but did not dare to say anything. All they could do was hide their heads deep within their arms.

"Haha, these mortals are actually leeks and pigs. After cutting them and killing them one by one, let's go." The leader of the evil sects laughed crazily as he held his hands behind his back and led the group of evil followers away.

As they watched the evil and pitch-black figure leave, the commoners finally breathed a sigh of relief. Their eyes were filled with hatred as they gnashed their teeth.

"Pui!" Devils, a group of devils. They commit many evil deeds, so naturally, they will have a day to take care of it. " A man spat and said angrily in a low voice.

"We can't go on like this. We are being locked up here, driven like cattle during the day and panicking at night. If we are not careful, we will be beaten up and cursed at. It is more likely that we will be beheaded and cut into pieces." At this time, a young man stood up and waved his arms, "You have also heard what those evil followers have said, in the eyes of those evil sects, we are just leeks and pigs, we do not have the slightest humanity, if the government does not come to our rescue, we can only save ourselves, in any case, I have had enough time, why not all of you follow me and raise your hands, and call for the rest of us to rebel against the evil sects, even if it is death, we must die with dignity!"

This young man seemed to have martial arts on him. Although he was locked up in a cage, his spirit was extremely vigorous. His eyes were bright and full of spirit.

However, there were very few commoners on the side. Most of them coldly watched from the sidelines, and there were even some who pretended to be asleep with their eyes closed.

"Lower your voice. If you hear it, you're done for. They are all devils that kill people without blinking an eye." An honest middle-aged man pulled his sleeves and looked around at the patrolling heretics. He was relieved to see that there were no movements from them.

"Then forget it. I would rather die standing than live kneeling. These heretics are no different from beasts." He had thought that with just a wave of his arm, countless people would immediately realize that he was the one who would fight his way out of the encirclement of the evil cult. However, everything that happened in front of him made him feel a sense of despair, his heart was simply too cold, and no one wanted to be the first person to die, or in other words, his evil cult's cruel and tyrannical image had already become deeply ingrained in everyone's hearts. No one dared to resist him, and they could only silently wait to die.

"Well said, we would rather die standing than kneel dying. If everyone else in the world thinks this way, what else could there be for the Demonic Sect?" Hong Yu stepped out from the heaven and earth, approaching the young man: "However, the sky is not too high, the human heart is the highest, you are too idealistic, these people have been enslaved for too long, they have long become numb and apathetic, how can you awaken the bloodlust in their hearts?"

Hong Yu had just descended into the valley, but he was discovered by the common people. The heretics had arrived, and in the nick of time, they had quietly hid in the small world of the Zhige Rune, disappearing without a trace.

Just as he was about to leave the cage and secretly explore the depths of the Demonic Sect temple, he heard the words of this young man.

In his eyes, this person was a genius. In a situation where one was trapped in a devil's lair and on the verge of death, not only did he not despair, but he was also full of fighting spirit and did not give in. This was something rare, even surpassing most people in the world!

"You … Are you human? Is it a ghost? " When he saw Hong Yu suddenly appear out of thin air, this method was already close to the level of a ghost, far beyond his knowledge. He was frightened, as if he had seen a ghost, and he was even unable to speak clearly.

Ghost? A ghost that can form a physical body is probably equivalent to a Martial Ancestor Realm expert who is a Spirit King who has mastered the Art of Convergence. When a Ghost King sees a stranger, the first thing that it will do is to devour them, and you still have the life to stand here and talk to me?

Hong Yu thought for a moment and did not conceal his true identity: "You do not have to be afraid, I am the king of the imperial court, and I am ordered to infiltrate the Devil Sect's lair to investigate the enemy's situation. With me here, I will definitely protect you."

"So you're not a ghost? Then I'm relieved! Who would have thought that the imperial government would have the time to take care of us civilians when we were facing such a vicious cult. Are you a great figure in the imperial court? When will the imperial army arrive here and rescue us? " The young man calmed down and suppressed the shock in his heart. Instead, he curiously looked at Hong Yu.

"No, the Demonic Sect is very powerful, and it will soon start spring. Of course, the imperial government has no time to take care of all of you. If they wanted to wait for the arrival of the army to save you, the citizens here would have long been killed by the Demonic Sect." Hong Yu shook his head: "But, you guys can save yourselves, just like what you did just now, with a wave of your hand, the people being locked up in the valley, are ten times more powerful than the evil followers, and if there is chaos, there might be a chance for them to escape. With my help, we can even go deep into the Demonic Sect's temple and attract the attention of the main forces of the Demonic Sect, and then there is a eighty to ninety percent chance of success."

Heh heh, why don't you wave your arms? It's just a joke. You said it earlier, these people are already numb and emotionless. They are willing to be enslaved. How can I, a mere Mortal realm martial artist, raise my arm and shout? "If I stand out, I'm afraid that I will be the first one to be killed. Even the civilians who are in the same cage as me will be angered and sit down." "The young man sighed and smiled sadly. He was undoubtedly in despair.

"With your current cultivation, of course you don't have that ability. However, I've already said that the heavens aren't high, but the human heart is the highest. Actually, if there is a trace of hope in a person's heart, then no one will sit still and wait for death. What you have to do is to let them see hope. Hong Yu's gaze was firm, the light in his eyes was aimed straight at the young man's body: "What's your name?"

"Hope? You will never be able to live; you will never be able to eat. You are in danger of dying at any time. The young man did not understand and retorted, but as if he was influenced by Hong Yu's gaze, he finally gathered up his courage and said: "My name is Feng Huizhou, I am from Huizhou. I can't die, my parents are still waiting for me to come home. I know you are a great figure, and you are Duke Yu, so you must have a way to save me.

"Plop —"

As he spoke, he knelt in front of Hong Yu, his head as if he was pounding garlic.

"Save you? I've said it before, with me here, you'll definitely have nothing to worry about! You don't have to do this to avoid drawing the attention of the cult. " Hong Yu quietly helped Feng Huizhou up, and stared into Feng Huizhou's eyes: "I don't only want to save you, I also want to save all the citizens here, but I can't do anything by myself. Are you willing to help me?"

"Yes!" Feng Huizhou nodded, his gaze firm as he said, "As long as Duke Yu can save me, I will definitely lead the way in the future, slapping my head from head to toe."

"This is a Loyal Liver Pill. If you consume it, you will be able to raise your cultivation and become a tiger or wolf warrior. Your cultivation is comparable to an expert at the perfect stage of the Mortal realm." "I want to enter the Demonic Sect's temple to commit murder and set fires. When that happens, there will be chaos within the Demonic Sect, so you should take advantage of the chaos and raise your arms to allow the people to escape." With a thought, a Loyal Liver Pill appeared in Hong Yu's hand and he threw it to the other party: "I'll remember your words. If you ignore the common people and act alone, even if I run to the ends of the earth, I'll kill you."

"Yes sir!" Feng Huizhou took the pill and swallowed it without any hesitation. Almost in an instant, a change occurred.
