Chapter 83: Demons Lurking at the Cold Avoidance Spring, the Dominant Brigadier Wang Wei Qian!
Chapter 83: Demons Lurking at the Cold Avoidance Spring, the Dominant Brigadier Wang Wei Qian!
Roar!!!
A mountain ape leaped into the air, its powerful fists resembling heavy hammers as they smashed downward!
Swish!
A large halberd soared upwards, instantly piercing through the ape.
The halberd then swung, and the ape's corpse was flung back into the mountain behind it.
This strike instantly intimidated the group of demons on the mountain, causing them to halt and stare at each other.
Wang Wei Qian's gaze was icy, his bloodstained halberd in hand, and his bloodied armor exuded an aura akin to a chaotic demon lord, his ferocity overwhelming.
Alone, he suppressed the group of demons on the mountain.
As one of the five brigadiers of the N Character Camp, his reputation was well-deserved!
"Wang Wei Qian, do you really think that you alone can stop us?"
At this moment, the demons on the mountain parted, and an ape with a slender body slowly approached.
It looked skinny, but its fur shone with a metallic luster, as if forged from steel. Its tail swayed gently, capable of snapping trees with ease.
The ape stared at Wang Wei Qian with a solemn expression and threatened him.
Wang Wei Qian's eyes remained icy, showing no signs of panic in the face of the ape king's threat.
He waved his halberd.
Boom!
The tip of the halberd landed heavily on the ground.
Wang Wei Qian spoke, "Why don't you try?"
Without hesitation, in just four words, he exuded a strong killing intent, as if a mountain of corpses and a rain of blood appeared in the demons' minds.
A hint of fear flashed in the ape's eyes, and it growled, "The Dragon King is about to break through! How much longer can you hold out?"
Wang Wei Qian's expression remained calm, but a chill flashed in his eyes as he stared at the ape and said, "If you dare to keep talking, you'll die here on this mountain today!"
Wang Wei Qian swung his halberd, carving a crack in the ground before him.
"This crack marks the boundary. If any demon dares to cross it, I, Wang, will kill every single one of you today!"
His words roared like a tiger's growl, filled with intense killing intent, causing the ape's pupils to shrink, and the demons on the mountain to retreat in fear.
Hmph!
Seeing that the demons didn't dare to move, the ape king fell silent.
Wang Wei Qian let out a cold snort and turned to leave.
Beneath him lay dozens, even hundreds, of demon corpses.
Among them were several demons comparable to the Master Realm.
This was the result of Wang Wei Qian's solitary battle prowess!
No wonder he alone had intimidated the group of demons on the mountain, preventing them from moving lightly.
Not long after Wang Wei Qian left, several tents appeared in his vision.
This was the N Character Camp's base at the Cold Avoidance Spring.
As he entered the camp, he saw many Demon Slayer Captains rushing about.
Located in the mountains, the Cold Avoidance Spring was surrounded by mountains on all sides. The demons trying to descend from the mountains were not limited to the group of ape demons he had just intimidated.
Wang Wei Qian's eyes grew solemn, filled with deep concern.
He turned his gaze to the Cold Avoidance Spring not far away.
Though called a spring, it resembled a lake, its rippling waters emitting a verdant glow.
The old dragon king was currently hiding beneath this Cold Avoidance Spring!
Wang Wei Qian shifted his gaze upwards, towards the figure seated cross-legged on the low cliff above the spring.
Clad in black robes, the figure's face was resolute, as if carved from stone, especially the thick eyebrows that resembled sharp swords, exuding a heroic aura.
However, at this moment, the figure's eyes were tightly shut, seemingly in meditation, preventing anyone from seeing their divine light.
Upon seeing this figure, Wang Wei Qian felt a surge of confidence.
"Reporting! General Wang! A message has arrived from Kaifeng Prefecture!"
A soldier quickly approached him and presented a letter with both hands.
Wang Wei Qian's expression turned solemn, and he reached out to take the letter, quickly scanning its contents.
As he finished reading, his face grew colder.
"Do the demons in Huai'an Prefecture really think they can slip through our fingers in the N Character Camp?"
Wang Wei Qian exclaimed, his voice filled with anger.
His aura suddenly erupted, startling those around him.
"What's wrong?"
At that moment, another bloodied figure entered the camp, his brows slightly raised as he approached Wang Wei Qian.
Liu Mingyi, one of the five brigadiers of the N Character Camp, had been dispatched to the Cold Avoidance Spring alongside Wang Wei Qian to suppress the demons.
They were responsible for clearing out the demons summoned by the old dragon king.
"A rat infestation has broken out in Kaifeng Prefecture, and there's suspicion of demon involvement in the government office. I suspect it's the rat demon from Cangfeng Mountain testing us!"
Wang Wei Qian spoke, a hint of coldness flashing in his eyes.
The N Character Camp's weakness was no longer a secret, but the demons' probing was not a good sign.
Liu Mingyi's eyes also flashed with determination.
After a moment of hesitation, he suggested, "Should we inform Chu Yu and the others, and have one of them go to Cangfeng Mountain to kill and intimidate that rat demon?"
Currently, only three brigadiers remained in the N Character Camp after Wang Wei Qian and Liu Mingyi were dispatched to the Cold Avoidance Spring. If another one left, only two brigadiers would be left, which was somewhat risky.
Wang Wei Qian thought for a moment, then shook his head. A strange look flashed in his eyes as he said, "There's another person going to Kaifeng Prefecture to deal with the rat infestation, and his strength is no weaker than ours. He should be able to take care of that rat demon."
Liu Mingyi furrowed his brows slightly and then asked, "You mean Qin Zheng?"
Wang Weiqian looked at him and nodded slightly.
The achievements in Mount Imagination and Black Goose City were enough to convince him of Qin Zheng's strength. However, Liu Mingyi hesitated and said, "But if we send him alone, what about the Gao Clan?"
Wang Weiqian was taken aback.
Indeed, if Qin Zheng ventured into Cangfeng Mountain alone, and the N Character Camp was currently unable to provide any support, wouldn't it be the perfect opportunity for the Gao Clan to make their move?
His expression changed abruptly, and his brows knitted together in a mix of conflict and hesitation.
"The strength of a Great Grandmaster is such that any movement by them would not escape the notice of all of Qingzhou. Therefore, the Gao Clan could only mobilize Grandmaster warriors at most."
"If Qin Zheng activates his Life Wheel and ascends to the Grandmaster Realm, with his physical body's talent, he will surely be fearless against any opponent under a Great Grandmaster. He can ignore the Gao Clan's pursuit and go after the rat demons."
He paused in thought and then spoke to Liu Mingyi.
In the end, he sighed deeply and said helplessly, "We truly have no one else."
Hiyah!
A spirited horse galloped along the road, kicking up dust in its wake.
Qin Zheng carried a bow and a sword, holding the reins with one hand while his gaze remained fixed ahead.
His decision to go to Cangfeng Mountain wasn't made on a whim.
The fact that the rat demons dared to descend from the mountain and directly threaten the magistrate of the city was an extremely dangerous sign.
If the N Character Camp, upon learning of this matter, still took no action, then not only the rat demons of Cangfeng Mountain but also other demons might follow suit!
In that case, the first to suffer would be the common folk, who were powerless to even bind a chicken!
Therefore, he had to slay the rat demons and crush the hidden malicious intentions of these demons, never allowing them to raise their heads again!
Moreover, having cultivated the Four Elements Hexagonal Blade and Sky-Striding Cloud-Flying Steps, two Middle Level Martial Arts, and with the activation of his Life Wheel, ascending to the Grandmaster Realm, Qin Zheng's combat power had skyrocketed!
At this moment, he himself wasn't sure how powerful he had become.
However, he could be certain that if he were to return to Black Goose City with his current strength, even the two Grandmasters of the Gao Clan, even if they used Secret Methods and joined forces, wouldn't be able to last three moves against him!
Qin Zheng's journey to Cangfeng Mountain was to send a warning and also to test his own strength!
The spirited horse galloped, and it was only when the full moon hung high in the sky that they entered the territory of Cangfeng Mountain from Kaifeng Prefecture.
As they ventured deeper, the signs of human life became increasingly scarce, and upon entering Cangfeng Mountain, there wasn't even a trace of human presence.
Thick demon aura permeated the air, accompanied by the roars of various wild beasts. Faintly, one could see pairs of eerie glows lighting up in the mountain forest.
If an ordinary person were to come here, they would likely be so terrified by the sight that they'd tremble and collapse on the spot.
However, Qin Zheng was no ordinary man.
He looked up at the surrounding mountains, his Psychic Energy spreading out to sense the surroundings.
Cangfeng Mountain was a demon mountain, very similar to Must Not Exist Mountain, with countless demons hiding within these mountains before him.
Just like when he had entered Must Not Exist Mountain, he had arrived at Cangfeng Mountain in the dead of night.
With this thought, Qin Zheng smiled faintly, and his gaze turned cold. He then displayed his Lightfoot Techniques, his figure moving like a shadow and instantly entering the mountain before him.
The moment he stepped into Cangfeng Mountain, countless demons that had scented human presence were already eyeing him greedily, eager to pounce.
Qin Zheng's shoulders trembled, and the Ghost Head Saber fell into his hand.
In an instant, dense saber light filled the air like a fierce wind and heavy rain, slaying the demons one after another.
He then grabbed a demon with nascent intelligence and asked, "Where is the lair of the Rat Demon King of Cangfeng Mountain?"
The demon was filled with terror and trembled as it replied, "The nine Demon Lords of Cangfeng Mountain are currently discussing important matters in a cave halfway up the mountain."
Important matters?
They were probably discussing how to test the limits of the N Character Camp and harm more humans!
Qin Zheng beheaded the demon and then looked up at the dark mountain forest ahead. With a step forward, he charged into the mountain.
At the same time, halfway up Cangfeng Mountain, within a massive cave.
Countless demons gathered here, resembling a human banquet, creating a lively scene!
In the center of the cave, there was a large wooden cage, imprisoning hundreds of humans, young and old.
Outside the cage, several pig demons wielded large knives, resembling butchers, slaughtering fresh meat and distributing it to the demons in the cave.
The scene was incredibly bloody!
After obtaining the flesh and blood, the demons immediately thanked the nine Demon Lords and the Rat Demon King loudly.
The atmosphere was both lively and eerie, chilling one's heart!
In the cave, nine figures overlooked the scene below.
There were tigers, deer, and foxes, and in the most central position was a gigantic rat!
These were the nine Demon Lords of Cangfeng Mountain!
