C12 The Demonized Crowd

The blood marten that was ready to attack suddenly felt a powerful demonic aura appear behind it. This demonic aura was stronger than its master, Meng Qianhun. It shrunk its neck and turned around, only to see Qu Lingjing pointing a sword at it.

"If you surrender obediently, I'll spare your life. Otherwise, you won't be able to escape death." Qu Lingjing wanted to use it to exchange for the antidote to save Qin Yubing, but he didn't want to kill it.

Lau Piaoxu was so scared that her face turned pale. Although she really hoped that the person in front of her would be able to stab the blood marten to death with a sword, she was afraid that the blood marten would suddenly attack her. She couldn't say a word.

The blood marten knew that the person in front of it was from the Devil Clan, and was hesitating to believe him. A female voice suddenly came from the entrance of the cave, "Kill it. This creature is born with a ferocious nature. If you keep it alive, it will only continue to bring disaster to the world."

This voice came from the female lead, Xin Lianyue, who had followed him all the way to the cave. Seeing that Qu Lingjing still hadn't made a move, he pulled out his sword and stabbed it into the blood marten's body without hesitation.

"Be careful!" Qu Lingjing shouted.

Unfortunately, it was too late. Xin Lianyue's sword had already stabbed into the blood marten's body. After a miserable scream, the blood marten splashed out a pillar of blood and splashed onto Xin Lianyue's shoulder. The demonic Qi attached to it entered Xin Lianyue's mouth and nose, and from then on, there was another person who was about to become a puppet of the demonic corpse.

Of course, Qu Lingjing couldn't let the female lead turn into a demon corpse. He sighed and cut his finger again to feed her his demonic blood, hoping to buy her some time.

"Drink it."

Xin Lianyue felt dizzy. Before she could react, she had already been poisoned by the demonic poison and was confused by Qu Lingjing's strange request.

"You, why did you feed me blood?" Xin Lianyue held her forehead and sat on the ground. Her eyes were filled with doubt, and she hesitated to drink it.

Qu Lingjing realized that Lau Piaoxu was still watching from the side and could not say too much. He took out the purple Saint Lord Token from his pocket. To the devils of Nether Realm, seeing the Saint Lord Token was like seeing a Saint Lord. They would unconditionally obey the orders of the person who held the token.

Xin Lianyue looked at the person in front of her and did not dare to doubt him anymore. After consuming the blood from Qu Lingjing's fingertip, two different kinds of demonic poison immediately appeared in her body and clashed with each other. To a mortal body, this kind of impact exceeded the burden that Xin Lianyue could bear and she fainted.

The smell of blood in the cave was too strong. Qu Lingjing had an ominous premonition and said to Lau Piaoxu, who was still in shock, "Can the little Immortal Sage still walk?"

Lau Piaoxu was shocked by the scene again. She was stunned for a long time before she finally reacted and nodded.

"Little Immortal Sage, please follow me and leave this place as soon as possible. It would be best if you could hide in the Profound Sect for a while. It is filled with spirit energy, and ordinary devils would not dare to go up and cause trouble."

Lau Piaoxu only nodded unconsciously and timidly hid behind Qu Lingjing as she moved towards the cave entrance.

Before Qu Lingjing could reach the entrance of the cave with Xin Lianyue in his arms, a wave of evil aura came towards them. Qu Lingjing was shocked. He thought to himself, 'Not good, this should be a large group of people whose minds have been eroded by the demonic barrier. There might also be puppets that have been turned into demonic corpses after being attacked by the blood marten.'

Putting Xin Lianyue down, Qu Lingjing did not care if Lau Piaoxu could help him or not. If he used the devil technique now, he was afraid of scaring Lau Piaoxu. At the same time, it would increase the devil Qi and attract more devils. He could only take out the Sword in his Sleeve and rush towards the cave entrance.

The demonic crowd seemed to have been summoned by the demonic smell of the blood marten. The more demonic the smell, the more they headed in any direction. Groups of them rushed towards the cave entrance from all directions, and in the blink of an eye, they had arrived at the cave entrance. Qu Lingjing brandished his sword and attacked from left and right. He relied purely on physical attacks to deal with a group of ordinary people who had lost their minds. These people were not difficult to deal with. If they were injured, they would lose the ability to fight and fall to the side. However, there were so many of them that the entrance of the cave was soon piled up, slowly exhausting Qu Lingjing's physical strength.

"Little Immortal Sage, hurry up and leave. I can temporarily block their attacks on you. Run to the Zongyi Mountain." Qu Lingjing wanted to quickly send Lau Piaoxu away so that he could use the devil technique. No matter what, it was better than relying on his physical strength alone.

However, Lau Piaoxu, who saw this scene, did not have the courage to run back.

"I, I'm not leaving. Let's just wait here for my master to save us."

Qu Lingjing really didn't expect the Immortal Sect disciples of the Misty Sword Sect to be so cowardly. In comparison, the disciples of the Profound Sect were much better than them. At least, Qin Yubing wasn't afraid of these devils. If they could stand up for him in front of the blood marten, there was no need to mention Sheng Xueyin.

The Sect Master of the Misty Sword Sect, their master, had already brought a large group of people to Mt. Zongyi a long time ago. Before they could come up with a plan, how could they take the risk of coming down the mountain to save someone?

While he was distracted, Qu Lingjing's shoulder was hit by a blunt weapon. He felt pain and almost couldn't stand up. Gritting his teeth, he slashed at the demon in front of him. The demon seemed to have no sense of pain and only focused on slashing with his empty eyes. Qu Lingjing dodged and stabbed him twice in his vital parts, but found no effect. After scanning his neck, Qu Lingjing finally understood why.

This person had been bitten by a blood marten, and now he was just a puppet that had been turned into a corpse. He felt no pain, no consciousness, and only knew how to obey orders and attack. He didn't stop and became an unkillable existence.

With such an attack and the endless stream of demons, Qu Lingjing felt that physical attacks alone might not be enough to support him. No matter what, his life was more important.

Just as Qu Lingjing started to circulate the demonic Qi, a white light suddenly appeared and flew over with a sharp sword Qi. The white light hit the chest of the demonic corpse, and countless rays of white light instantly burst out from the body of the demonic corpse. The entire body of the demonic corpse shot out in all directions like fragments, and the fragments continued to disintegrate until they finally turned into dust and returned to the ground. Then, like a rain of arrows, Nianzhi shot into the crowd of demons one by one, resolving Qu Lingjing's crisis in an instant. All of this seemed to have happened in an instant, and the entire situation changed.

A dark blue figure flew down from the sky. It was as light as a cloud and moved on the wind.

It was the same unemotional face, standing before a pile of bones, slowly raising its arms, spreading its palms, and working with the spell in its mouth.

Perhaps one's mind would be a little weaker than usual when faced with danger or despair. One would also have a deep impression of the person who had saved one's life. At that moment, Lau Piaoxu looked at Sheng Xueyin with admiration and infatuation.

Qu Lingjing slowly put down the sword in his hand and used his sleeve to hide his trembling hand. He looked at the tall figure and could not help but exclaim: This person was indeed very handsome!
