Ashen Cloud Mountain.
This mountain towered into the clouds and was surrounded by white fog, hence its name.
There was a cave in the middle of the mountain where the vegetation was the densest.
Vaguely, he could see the flickering of fire inside.
Countless monsters,
Two little gremlins that were yellow weasels guarded the door and kept looking down the mountain.
"Why hasn't the person today arrived yet?”
"That's right. If we delay any longer, we won't have enough human blood and souls.”
"Look, you're finally back."
A few hundred steps away, a group of wolf-headed demons pushed a prison cart over.
There were men and women inside the prison carriage. They were curled up together, their faces full of fear.
"Wuwuwu…"
"Help, help…"
“……”
They cried out for help and kept crying.
There was only one exception.
A monk in tattered clothes squatted in the middle, eating peanuts and drinking.
Everyone looked at him as if he was a lunatic.
"Don't…don't be afraid."
Li Xiushan chewed on a peanut and mumbled,""Let's go in and take a walk. I'll send you home later.”
It was easy to say.
If you had this ability, why would you be locked up here?
Not long after, the prison carriage entered the cave.
The little demon escorted them to the alchemy room in the deepest part of the cave.
In the dimly lit cave, the flames flickered.
A huge alchemy furnace was placed in the center.
On the left was a huge guillotine, and on the right was a corpse with a severed head hanging high.
The pills they refined took the souls of men and the flesh and blood of women.
The extra man's corpse was hung at the side, creating a horrifying scene.
There were also many people locked in the corner. It looked like they had been locked up here for a while.
Other than demons, there were also many ordinary people here. They were dressed in the same clothes and looked like servants of a wealthy family.
The division of labor was clear.
The demons were responsible for capturing people, while the servants were responsible for lighting the fire and guarding the venue.
"Work!"
" Cut off their heads," a wolf demon shouted." Strip their bodies and souls. Prepare to refine pills."
Be quick!"
The servants skillfully opened the cage and were about to pull the person to the guillotine to behead him.
"Help!"
Wails sounded everywhere.
" Don't kill me, don't kill me, please don't kill me…"
"Wuwu, chop him first."
“……”
"Kill me first."
Amidst the pleas for mercy, a different voice suddenly sounded.
Li Xiushan stood up." Chop me first. I have an itchy neck. I can scratch it."”
“？？？”
Whether they were demons or humans, they all suspected that they had heard wrongly.
"Damn it, which one of you caught a lunatic?”
The wolf demon cursed,"Then satisfy him and kill this monk first."”
Two servants came forward, intending to take Li Xiushan to the guillotine.
In the end, they did not even need to do anything. Li Xiushan had already taken the initiative to lie on the guillotine and said with a smile,"Do it. Help me chop three times."
"Madman, hurry up and die!"
The guillotine fell.
"Clang!"
However, the sound of metal colliding was heard. Not only was Mad Monk's head fine, but he also turned his face and smiled at him."Two, two more times."
"What?"
The servant was shocked and hurriedly used all his strength.
"Clang!"
The second time, it was still fine.
"Kacha!"
When the guillotine fell for the third time, the blade shattered into pieces!
" Not good! He's a cultivator!"
Although the wolf demon was a small demon, it was not a fool.
" What?!" He was shocked and retreated." You…What's wrong with you? You captured a cultivator!"”
"We don't know either."
The other demons were also bewildered." We met this monk at the foot of the mountain. When we captured him, he didn't resist.”
"Idiot!"
"Someone come-"
Dozens of demons and servants quickly gathered and surrounded Li Xiushan.
Just as he was about to make a move, another person dressed like a butler rushed over and shouted,
"Something happened!"
"Last night, Chief Hei was killed by a crazy monk.
The people of the Demon Suppression Division had already come to the door and were temporarily stopped outside.
Lord Marquis wants us to kill all the living people and get rid of the evidence. All the servants must leave immediately.”
There were many people from the marquis 'manor here. Once they were discovered by the Demon Suppression Department, it would be the greatest evidence!
"Someone can kill a Rank-5 Chief Hei?”
A monster of the Fifth Stage was already quite powerful.
The wolf demon was stunned.
"Wait, you said it was a crazy monk?”
He looked at the smiling Li Xiushan and thought to himself, Not good!
They probably wouldn't be able to escape.
……
At the foot of the mountain.
Xiyue, Tan Zhaodi, and 30 or so Demon Vanquishing Guards rushed over.
"What a strong smell of demonic qi and blood."
As soon as they entered the mountain, they immediately felt that something was wrong.
Xiyue looked at the mountainside.”
When she was young, in order to learn painting, she had once come to the mountains near the capital to take a look.
When she was touring the Grey Cloud Mountain, she happened to find a natural cave, which just happened to meet all the requirements for an alchemy room.
Therefore, after analyzing with Zhong Zhen today, Xiyue concluded that the alchemy room was most likely here.
It seemed that she was right.
"Up the mountain."
Just as the group was about to move forward, a gust of cold wind suddenly blew around them, and black fog surged.
"Watch your step!"
Tan Zhaodi shouted.
One after another, withered and pale right arms suddenly stretched out from the ground under their feet and grabbed at their ankles.
The Monster Vanquishing Guards drew their sabers.
Xiyue said calmly, her voice as clear as jade,""Righteousness, invulnerable to evil."
Confucianism!
