Chapter 114 Suppression and Pursuit
Howling!
Outside Taihu County.
Suddenly, the neighing of horses echoed through the miasma-filled jungle.
As Lin Zhou rode his strange horse out of the dense forest, he saw a large crowd of people hundreds of paces away below the city wall.
Take a closer look.
Then you can see the white mold covering those people, which looks like patches of white hair growing out.
On that city wall.
A tall, thin, four-armed monkey demon could be seen.
"A mastery of the Transformation Realm..."
At this moment, Lin Zhou, riding the crimson horse, sensed the demonic aura emanating from the four-armed monkey demon as he approached, and thus quickly determined the monkey demon's cultivation level.
They arrived not too late.
Swish!
But before Lin Zhou could reach the city wall...
The four-armed monkey demon above seemed to be stimulated by something, and suddenly leaped from the city wall, its body drawing an arc on the wall as it flew straight towards Lin Zhou.
"Red Glow!"
At this moment, a wisp of black smoke flew out of Lin Zhou's mouth.
From his right hand, a three-foot-long sword with a crimson blade appeared in the blink of an eye.
A hazy red light flickered around him.
Once it appeared, a wisp of sword energy dissipated from the sword, and the surrounding temperature increased by several degrees.
"A top-grade treasure!"
"How is that possible..."
"You are a prodigy disciple of a human sect!"
At this moment, the four-armed monkey demon with a ferocious face saw a bright red sword suddenly appear in the hand of the martial artist in front of him, and he felt a chill as if he had fallen into an ice cave from the blade.
The hair on his back stood on end instantly.
His pupils suddenly contracted.
The four-armed monkey demon knew very well that such a sharp, top-grade human weapon would surely pierce through the heart if it were to be struck by it!
"retreat!"
The four-armed monkey demon in the air suddenly inhaled.
His body size suddenly increased several times over, and as he opened his mouth wide, he let out a loud shout, abruptly stopping in his tracks.
"Oh!"
At this moment, Lin Zhou saw the four-armed monkey demon trying to retreat and a smile appeared on his lips.
With a single step, he unleashed his Flying Shadow Golden Wings Technique, appearing like a ghostly afterimage, and instantly arrived before the four-armed monkey demon, calmly observing the demon before him.
puff!
A flash of red sword light.
The four-armed monkey demon's head was terrified and fell from the sky, crashing to the ground.
The headless corpse also fell down, lying limp on the ground like a lump of minced meat.
Piles of black smoke with a pungent odor were visible to the naked eye, escaping from the corpses and drifting into the air.
"Swallowing air prolongs life."
The entry in the entry position suddenly flashed.
[Inspiration +0.4]
"Too weak."
Lin Zhou looked at the pitiful spirit energy value, a hint of helplessness flashing in his eyes.
These people?
"It's demonic poison."
"It seems that besides this monkey demon, there are other demons lurking outside Taihu County."
"The vanguard, leading the charge?"
Lin Zhou looked thoughtful.
That would be best, as it would allow us to eliminate more demon soldiers and plunder more spiritual energy.
What a pity!
They were all ordinary demon soldiers. The elite demon soldiers mostly hid themselves and would certainly not be like the ordinary demon soldiers, unable to resist their greedy hunger, and would come out to devour human warriors in various counties.
Lin Zhou's gaze fell upon a group of people afflicted with mold disease. Each of them had numerous white, fuzzy mold spots on their bodies, some even covering their entire bodies, a result of this demonic poison.
The only solution is to take some detoxifying pills.
Lin Zhou happened to have some spare antidote pills in the stomach pouch of the giant toad. He mixed them into the water, and the ordinary medicinal power was enough to cure them.
Swish!
Lin Zhou flew up to the city wall.
Looking at the bloodstains on the city wall, only a few Ming Jin martial artists remained, along with a few Tong Mai martial artists hiding near the city tower. The people on the city wall saw Lin Zhou in a green robe flying down from below the city wall.
Their eyes were filled with awe!
"Pharmacist Wang."
"It's been a long time."
Lin Zhou looked at the side of the city wall and saw Wang Yaoshi, whose figure was slightly thinner than before. He had seen him many times before when he was at Qingyuan Sect.
Upon hearing that familiar voice...
Wang Yaoshi, who was hiding by the city wall, narrowed his eyes and then hurriedly looked up.
Then, Lin Zhou came into view.
"Master Lin...Master Lin."
At this moment, the pharmacist bowed with his hands clasped in disbelief.
"How is the Li family?"
Lin Zhou asked.
"In reply to Lord Lin, there were rumors that demons were invading."
"A town in the west was completely slaughtered by demons. Because of this, many forces and gangs in Taihu County united and left Taihu."
"I don't have any powerful backers."
"Because of the deterrent effect of the newly arrived garrison general, many forces that did not have time to leave had no choice but to stay."
"Many members of the Li family, as well as members of the Medicine King Gang and other small and medium-sized gangs, have chosen to leave Taihu Lake and are preparing to go to Longzhou Prefecture for refuge."
Pharmacist Wang knew very well what Lord Lin's purpose was in returning this time.
In Taihu County, the only people who could have any dealings with Lord Lin were the Li family of Qingyuan Sect and Liang Jingchun and a few others from the Medicine King Gang.
"They've all left?"
"This is an antidote pill. Soak it in water; it can be soaked multiple times."
"Then the mold on the bodies of the people below the city can be cured."
Lin Zhou casually reached into his robes, and a wisp of black smoke flew out, revealing a bright green pill in his hand. It was about the size of a cherry and shimmered with a green halo, making it look quite extraordinary.
After saying this, he threw it in front of Pharmacist Wang, who had also fled famine in Taihu County.
It's just a matter of taking a poison-avoiding pill.
"You two, help Pharmacist Wang push this matter forward."
"If anyone from another sect dares to embezzle this pill, they shall hand over this token."
Lin Zhou took out a token from the Wind and Thunder Sword Sect, sealed a Tiger-Crane Sword Intent within it, and then turned and left without lingering.
He leaped off the city wall.
As if flying through the air, it glided hundreds of steps away and landed on the strange horse.
"Tracking."
The location of the demon soldiers entrenched nearby.
The next moment, a red arrow appeared in front of him.
Since there are no familiar faces in the city, what difference does it make whether we go or not?
Instead, we should kill a few demon soldiers.
With these demon soldiers entrenched nearby, the people of the surrounding counties will likely be devoured sooner or later.
...
...
North of Taihu County.
Pig Head Mountain, fifty miles away.
"Your Majesty, the sixth prince is dead."
"In Taihu County, there is a disciple of a major human sect, at least at the peak of the Transformation Realm."
"He possesses a sword of the highest quality, a treasure-level weapon."
"Your Majesty, let's close the net."
"Let us brothers also get to taste the flavor of a human martial artist who has reached the peak of the Transformation Realm."
"Among these two-legged sheep, those with obvious strength and those with hidden strength are simply not the same thing."
Halfway up the mountain, in a cave.
Several demon soldiers of various shapes gathered together. In front of them, on a bench piled with bones, sat a female demon with a human body and a snake tail. Her demonic aura had reached the Core Formation stage, clearly indicating that she was an elite demon soldier.
