Chapter 552 Arrest [Ask for monthly tickets! ]
The three older generation sword masters in the sky returned to the city only after they had hunted down all the Nine Yang Mystic Masters.
This time Qi Kunlun came to the rescue of Yuguan City, Liang Yue and Wen Yifan accompanied him, it can be said that all the elite members of the Yujian Sect were mobilized.
Halfway through the journey, Qi Kunlun was always worried that if the Canglong tribe marched day and night, they would still reach Yuguan City faster than them, so he asked several sword cultivators to act alone.
He knew the Yang people very well. If the Canglong tribe wanted to attack the city quickly, they would definitely abandon the main force and only send out a small vanguard. With three great master sword cultivators in charge, they would not be afraid of the Canglong tribe's demon cavalry if they had a way to restrain the Tianxiao Demon Cloud Formation.
The fact turned out to be just as Qi Kunlun had expected. Chao Wei led his troops to attack first. If they had been half a step slower, Yuguan City would have been razed to the ground.
In fact, on the battlefield, personal cultivation does not play such a big role. As long as the number of troops is large enough and they form a military formation, even a grandmaster will find it difficult to perform.
But at the same time, as long as there are enough grandmasters and they form a sword formation, your army will be helpless.
Today's situation is the latter.
When the three top sword masters in the world attack together, these thousands of demon riders become pure meat on the chopping board.
Although victory was certain, killing Chao Wei was indeed a pleasant surprise. After all, if a Grandmaster was determined to escape, the Sky-lifting Sword Diagram would not be able to restrict him, and the three sword cultivators did not expect Liang Yue to be able to kill the other general alone.
But it did not stop Wang Rulin from smiling confidently, saying: "As expected of my disciple, you have inherited 50% of my talent, and your progress is extraordinary."
Deng Yunzi curled his lips, as if he wanted to say that he was boasting, but it was difficult to refute him. He paused and said, "It's not just your disciple who is gifted. My disciple is also invincible."
"My disciple killed a master-level expert!"
"My disciple is about to break through. Who doesn't have a master-level disciple?"
"..."
Neither of the two people was willing to give in to the other, but the Sword King Sun next to them had a frozen expression and his smile became more and more bitter.
The two senior brothers were bickering there, why did I feel like I was the one being scolded?
Liang Yue still tried to persuade them, "Master, uncle, stop arguing. Senior Sister Wen and I are from the same family and we don't have any differences."
Deng Yunzi glared at him immediately, as if he wanted to ask, who is your family?
But when he looked back, he saw that after his apprentice landed, Liang Yue immediately went to meet him, and the two of them were exchanging glances.
I feel like this is hard to say...
Wang Rulin showed a face of a smug villain, and laughed: "Old Deng, it doesn't matter. When they get married, my disciple will be married into the family. Anyway, your position as the head of the Yujian Sect will be passed to him in the future, so just treat him as your half-disciple."
"I..." Deng Yunzi was getting more and more upset, and said solemnly: "If he wants to be the head of the Yu Jian Sect, he has to ask my disciple if he agrees!"
"Aren't you instigating the children?" Wang Rulin said, "If the children don't get along, it must be because the old people are immoral..."
Lin Buyi watched them argue for a long time, and only when all the defenders came out to clean up the battlefield did he dare to step forward and say, "Masters, leave the affairs here to the soldiers. Everyone please enter the city first, I will set up a banquet to thank you for saving the city!"
"General Lin, my senior teachers are here for the greater good of the world, so there's no need to thank me." Liang Yue said with a smile.
"I know that Xuanmen disciples care about the world and are a blessing to the people of Yin Country." Lin Buyi said, "It is only right that I entertain you all."
……
Although Yuguan City is the most prosperous city in Liangzhou, it has just experienced many natural disasters and is in wartime, so naturally there are no delicacies or luxurious foods.
Lin Buyi was not a person who liked extravagance, so the banquet he prepared was just simple military dishes, which were at most fresh and fragrant. After the Yujian Sect and the Yuguan City defenders had a feast, they went to a place arranged in the city to rest and wait for Qi Kunlun's army to arrive.
The formation of the Canglong tribe has been broken, and it should be impossible for them to organize a siege within a day or two. We can relax a little during these few days.
However, Liang Yue keenly noticed that his master seemed a little strange.
In previous banquets, he loved to blow all the whistles. Normally, wouldn't he have exaggerated his achievements in sweeping out the Yang people tenfold and mentioned them repeatedly?
But Wang Rulin was very silent during the dinner today. In the second half, he found an excuse and left.
Liang Yue frowned, realizing that things were not simple.
So he followed him out quietly. Because Wang Rulin was very advanced in Taoism, he directly opened the Immortal Vine to transform into nothingness.
Wang Rulin walked out of the banquet place, looked around, and then flew over the eaves and walls, turning into a gray shadow. He left almost no trace in the night and went all the way out of the city.
What are you doing here, Master?
Liang Yue could understand if Wang Rulin went to the battlefield to pick up some things. But now the battlefield outside the city has been cleaned up, if he went to pick up some things, there should only be some scraps of copper and iron left.
Soon Wang Rulin arrived at an open area under the city. The corpses here could not be dealt with in time, so they were simply dragged to one place and piled up. Broken weapons and the like were piled in another place. Several bonfires were burning, and there were still soldiers patrolling carefully at night.
He was seen sneaking up to a high ground, and then taking out a gourd with four talismans attached to it from his arms.
After taking it out, he lifted the talisman on the gourd, and suddenly a strong suction force appeared at the mouth of the gourd. There seemed to be a black vortex inside, sucking away all the hostility, blood, resentment... and everything else on the battlefield!
The black and gold inscriptions on the gourd flickered, and the formation inside was activated at full power.
Liang Yue looked at it in great surprise. What remained on the battlefield were the most gloomy and dark auras of the human world. Why did his master collect these things?
Could it be that he is still unwilling to give up on the identity of the lecturer and wants to continue to stay in the Demon Sect?
Before he could show up to ask, he heard another voice shouting, "Wang Rulin, what are you doing?"
Wang Rulin was so shocked that his shoulders trembled. He turned around and saw Deng Yunzi looking at him with a righteous face, "Is this the Wusheng Sect's magic gourd? You are actually refining demonic energy?"
It turned out that he also noticed that something was wrong with Wang Rulin, so he followed him all the way and arrested him on the spot!
"Brother, please listen to my explanation!" Wang Rulin quickly raised his hands.
"Explain it to me." Deng Yunzi stared at him intently, "As a disciple of the Xuan Sect, why do you practice this evil and sinister technique?"
"Hey? Who's that behind you?" Wang Rulin pointed behind Deng Yunzi.
"Don't try that on me!" Deng Yunzi rolled his eyes at him.
When he was fifteen or sixteen years old, he took over the training of his fellow disciples on behalf of his master, and Wang Rulin always escaped like this. At that time, Deng Yunzi was always deceived by him. Now he is in his fifties or sixties, how could he still fall for it?
“Hehe, just a little joke.” Wang Rulin chuckled, and then said: “Brother, you may not know that the Jiuyang Wusheng Sect is also marching with the Canglong Tribe this time. After every battle, they will send out magic cultivators to collect the remaining breath on the battlefield and refine the magic energy. The magic energy on the battlefield is the most concentrated and pure in the world. Sometimes the magic energy refined in a battle is enough to refine a master-level magic puppet!”
"So what?" Deng Yunzi frowned and said, "If there are any demon cultivators, we will just kill them."
"We can't just sit back and watch the Demon Sect grow stronger, can we?" Wang Rulin said, "So I came up with this plan. I'll sacrifice myself and get a demon-refining gourd. After each battle, I'll absorb the demonic energy first. Then when the demon cultivators come, what will they absorb? They have nothing! This will greatly weaken their manpower, right? So if I absorb the demonic energy now, it's equivalent to killing the demon cultivators in the future! Do you think I should absorb more?"
Deng Yunzi scratched his head when he heard this, "Huh?"
Why does it seem to make some sense?
Follow the path of the demon cultivators and leave them with nowhere to go...
After a pause, he wondered again, "But I heard that this magic refining gourd is the secret treasure of Wusheng Sect, and only a few people like Demon Lord and Tushan know how to refine it. Where did you get it from?"
"I picked it up." Wang Rulin said calmly, "Is it so valuable? When I opened the door that day, I saw it lying on the ground. I thought no one wanted it..."
