Chapter 151 Protector of the Ten Thousand Demons Sect
"Master, a manned magical artifact has landed nearby. Should we follow it?"
In a hidden cave somewhere in the Tianming Mountains.
A dozen or so figures.
The people around him were all dressed in black robes and had expressionless faces.
The two people in the middle.
One old and one young.
The girl's face was full of excitement, but the old man frowned.
In front of the two was a crystal bead floating in the air.
The bead displays a scene of the outer perimeter of the Tianming Mountains.
That was a scene of a group of people getting off the manned magical vessel one after another.
Judging from his attire, he is clearly an alchemist.
This is exactly the person they're looking for!
"No rush." The old man squinted, staring intently at the bead.
The girl became somewhat anxious upon hearing this.
"Master! The Ninth Protector and his men are nearby. If we don't send someone to follow them, what if they strike first, and we're..."
The old man shook his head, repeating his previous statement, "No rush."
He wasn't in a hurry, but the girl was extremely anxious.
"You old codger! You're the Eighth Protector! What are you afraid of, a mere Nascent Soul cultivator! That Ninth Protector is only at the ninth level of the Nascent Soul stage! He hasn't even reached the Great Perfection of the Nascent Soul stage! What are you afraid of him for!"
Upon hearing this, the expressions of the many demonic cultivators around him changed drastically.
He quickly lowered his head.
Within the sect, God and the top protectors do not appear frequently.
They might be in seclusion cultivating, or fighting against demonic cultivators in the demon realm.
The Eight Protectors are the protectors that lower and middle-level demonic cultivators see most often.
He possesses a terrifying cultivation level of the third stage of the Nascent Soul realm.
If one consumes the Demon Lord's essence blood, one's cultivation level could even approach the Great Perfection of the Nascent Soul stage.
If one were to unleash that terrifying demonic art, along with numerous mysterious and bizarre evil artifacts...
They are capable of fighting even against experts at the Dao Integration Realm!
The Ninth Protector is a recently emerging genius demonic cultivator.
He had been a member of the sect for several years, but remained unknown.
Later, he inherited the legacy of a certain demonic sect patriarch in the sect's great tomb, and his strength increased dramatically.
In just ten short years.
He rose from an ordinary Qi Refining stage disciple to the ninth level of the Nascent Soul stage.
Now that great chaos is imminent, this boy is full of ambition.
I want a piece of the pie in this chaotic world!
They wanted to climb up by stepping on the corpses of the many guardians in front of them!
Within a few months, he made numerous contributions.
He rose from a junior disciple to a Dharma protector, and then to the twentieth rank, constantly advancing forward.
He is now ranked ninth.
He was only a few minor realms away from becoming one of the Eighth Protectors.
If he makes another great contribution and breaks through to the Nascent Soul stage at the same time...
It seems the position of the Eighth Protector will have to be relinquished.
The Eight Protectors didn't seem to care much about this.
On the contrary, the disciple he took in cared a lot.
My teeth itch with girlish innocence.
My intuition tells me those nine protectors deserve to be torn to pieces! Their deaths are no loss!
“Old man! I think these people are quite impressive. They are probably alchemists from some major sect. If they are captured by the Ninth Protector again and he gets credit for their work, you might lose your position as the Eighth Protector.”
The old man waved his hand with a smile.
He patted the girl on the shoulder.
"It's just a ranking. What's the difference between eighth and ninth? If he wants to go up, let him go up."
"You!" The young girl's eyebrows shot up, her eyes blazing with anger. "This is a disgrace! A colossal disgrace!"
She turned around and looked at the people inside the cave.
He put one hand on his hip and pointed at them with the other.
"You all agree! Isn't that right!"
No one said a word.
His face looked bitter.
Who dares to speak at this time?
The Eighth Elder may look kind and benevolent, but that's only towards you, his beloved disciple.
He was ruthless towards both his enemies and his subordinates.
Who would dare to speak up at this time?
Nobody dares!
It's best to keep quiet!
Seeing everyone's reaction, the girl was furious, her face turning red.
"Master! Why are you getting more and more cowardly as you get older! Where is your charisma and heroism when you massacred the city! Even if you didn't capture these alchemists, you could have just killed them all! This is just giving the credit to that Ninth Protector!"
She became more and more anxious and angry as she spoke.
Looking at the image that appeared on the crystal bead.
The group of alchemists who jumped off the shuttle had already set off into the mountains.
If we don't keep up now, the mountain terrain will be too complicated.
If you try to catch up later, you won't be able to catch up at all!
With a flick of her wrist, a dark green longsword appeared in her hand.
"Fine! You guys won't go? I will! I'll kill all these bastards!"
She sneered, "If those Ninth Protector shows up, I'll kill him too!"
The girl was young, but like the Ninth Protector, she was also at the ninth level of the Nascent Soul stage.
The blood pills and soul pills refined by the Eight Protectors during the massacre of the city, aside from those offered up, were all used for other purposes.
I didn't take the rest.
Instead, he gave it to his young apprentice.
It helped her reach the Nascent Soul stage.
Then they captured several Nascent Soul stage cultivators.
They arrested their entire family and forced them to transfer their inner energy into the girl's body.
That's how he reached the ninth level of the Nascent Soul stage at such a young age.
Only one step is needed to reach the Great Perfection of the Nascent Soul stage.
The old man sighed as he watched the girl's retreating figure.
This child has been spoiled by his parents.
He was a little dazed.
I felt as if I were seeing a son who had once been a disappointment.
The son who has already died.
That kid only cares about enjoying himself and never bothers to cultivate.
They focus all their attention on eating, drinking, and having fun.
He bullied men and women, and was eventually killed in the street by disciples of the Immortal Sect.
Fortunately, he had a daughter with a courtesan.
It can be considered that a lineage has been preserved.
Unlike her deadbeat father, this daughter is hardworking and ambitious.
But... he's too ambitious.
We've reached another extreme.
Perhaps it was my constant pampering that led her to now be so sharp and outspoken.
They are incapable of patience and always fight and grab when faced with trouble.
That's not good.
With a thought, he completely controlled the girl.
"You old coward! You're the coward yourself! And you expect me to be a coward too! Do you expect me to be a shrinking turtle like you?! You old geezer! Let go of me!"
The Eighth Elder sighed.
I walked over slowly.
"You child, no matter how many times I tell you, you never remember. When something happens... don't rush, observe carefully first..."
"What's so interesting about that! Watch me kill them all with one sword!"
The old man shook his head.
Squint your eyes.
"Not long ago, the disciples of the Sword Sect's Pill Hall were hunted down by our sect's protectors, and the two protectors have not returned since. If nothing unexpected has happened, they must have met with some misfortune."
"So what! They're just trash!" the girl sneered.
Those two are both utterly useless!
I can crush them all by myself!
“If something happened to them, then… since the Sword Sect already knows about the situation near the Tianming Mountains, they will definitely notify the other sects.”
"Ok?"
"But now, a master alchemist is showing up so openly. Do you think this is normal? If you were to go out now, you might be... suppressed directly!"
The old man's voice suddenly turned grim.
The girl frowned in thought.
His expression changed slightly, and his face turned pale.
A chilling feeling emanated from my heart.
It really is true!
Master is right!
Makes a lot of sense!
If I had rushed out in a moment of impulse, I might have been suppressed by now!
Thinking of this, she broke out in a cold sweat!
Seeing his granddaughter's reaction, the old man nodded silently to himself.
Very satisfied.
To be honest, he wasn't sure if his guess was right or wrong.
But as the saying goes, better safe than sorry!
Judging from his personality...
Given the current situation, we should wait for the hothead to take the initiative and investigate.
Instead of foolishly rushing in.
It's certainly not about letting my silly granddaughter, whose mind is full of killing, go there.
"Ah, Master...so you mean..."
"Little Jiu wanted to make a name for himself, didn't he? Hehe." The old man smiled and said no more.
The girl's eyes shone.
His admiration for his master grew even stronger.
"I see!"
But then she pouted and said, "Master, you are really cunning."
The old man's expression fell, and his image as a reclusive sage vanished.
Furious.
"You and I are both demonic cultivators! Demonic cultivators! Do you even know what it means to be a demonic cultivator! What does it mean to be insidious! That's awful!"
"Tsk, getting impatient."
The Eighth Protector took a deep breath, and his lips twitched.
I don't want to waste my breath on this brat.
That is, her.
Anyone else would have been suppressed into the soul banner long ago.
But the person in front of him was, after all, the daughter of his short-lived son.
Her own granddaughter.
You brat, you have no manners!
After this mission is over, I'll have to discipline him properly.
