Chapter 450: Heavy Siege
Not only the members of the Poison Refining Alliance thought so, Pei Yun and the other two also saw the bad intentions of the Strange Poison Sect. After He Zhidao gave Pei Yun the share they had agreed on, he said, "We need to leave as soon as possible. We should leave tonight without further delay."
Pei Yun and the other two had no objection and nodded in agreement with his opinion.
Late at night, Pei Yun and his two companions quietly left Wufang City. However, they were ambushed just after flying a few miles on the Suzaku puppet.
Dark clouds obscured the crescent moon, and only a few sparse stars dotted the pitch-black night sky.
But at this moment, an extremely dazzling light suddenly burst out from the originally dark wasteland, and a huge, complex and ancient magic circle appeared on the ground, trapping the three people in mid-air at once!
Pei Yun thought something was not good. She put away the Suzaku puppet and returned to the ground with He Zhidao.
Pei Yun and He Jing were standing in the magic circle and were not attacked at all. However, as soon as He Zhidao touched the magic circle, hundreds of light arrows appeared from the magic circle and attacked He Zhidao with a whoosh...
He Zhidao's expression changed and he quickly used his footwork to dodge, but the light arrows kept biting him and followed closely.
He Zhidao was now fully awake, his face became completely gloomy, and he said seriously: "This is... a demon-killing formation!"
Pei Yun and the other two were shocked and could not help but shout, "Is this the ancient great formation - the Ten Directions Demon-Slaying Formation?!"
“Hmph! With such limited ability, how can it be the Ten Directions Demon-Slaying Formation? It’s just an incomplete Demon-Slaying Formation…” He Zhidao snorted with contempt and indifference in his eyes.
"That's right, this is indeed not the Ten Directions Demon-Slaying Formation, but it's more than enough to catch a little demon like you!"
A familiar voice came from the darkness not far away. Because the magic circle trapped Pei Yun and the other two, their consciousness was isolated and they did not notice any movement around the magic circle.
As these people approached, Pei Yun and the other two saw that the area outside the magic circle was already surrounded by people.
"Master Fang! Master Yu!" Pei Yun squinted his eyes and glanced around.
Among them, Sect Leader Fang brought a group of elders and disciples from the Qidu Sect, but Yue Ji was not seen. Sect Leader Yu also led a group of people from the Golden Sword Sect.
In addition to these two forces, there are also people from Wanhua Valley, led by Hua Jianyu, the master of Wanhua Valley. As for the last force, Pei Yun was completely unfamiliar with them. The four forces surrounded Pei Yun and the other two, holding various magical weapons in their hands, and it seemed that they wanted to catch them all in one fell swoop.
He Zhidao recognized the origin of this last force. He smiled and said sarcastically, "People from the Cui family are here too. They really think highly of me!"
Cui Shizong, the head of the Cui family, is the current patriarch of the Cui family. His cultivation is comparable to He Zhidao's, both of them have reached the perfection of the Spiritual Transformation (the demon race's Lingxu). He stroked his beard, frowned, and said sanctimoniously: "How dare you, a demon, seize resources in the territory of my human race? Today, my four factions will kill you, a demon, for the human race!"
The leader of the Golden Sword Sect, Yu Nanjue, thought about the clues Pei Yun had provided to Fairy Baihua's death, and said, "Fellow Daoist Pei, don't be deceived by this monster. As long as you leave quickly and don't help the evil, our four sects will let you live!"
After saying this, Sect Leader Fang's eyes flickered slightly, and he said solemnly, "Sect Leader Yu, this girl calls this monster 'Master Uncle', and it's obvious that she has an unusual relationship with this monster. We can't let her go. After we capture her, why not hand her over to our sect for disposal? We will definitely investigate thoroughly!"
The Qidu Sect did not tell the other three parties about the fact that this woman had a treasure. When he gathered these three forces, he only said that they wanted to capture a lurking demon.
The demon race with perfect spiritual power, his fur, flesh and demon pills are all good materials for refining magical tools or improving cultivation. The Qidu Sect knew that it might not be able to kill He Zhidao with its own forces, so it secretly contacted the other three parties.
Hua Jianyu glanced at Master Fang coldly, a hint of hatred flashed in her eyes, but it quickly disappeared.
The people from Wanhua Valley and Jindao Sect are not fools. After investigation, they found that the death of Fairy Baihua was related to the Qidu Sect. Yu Nanjue led a group of people into the Qidu Sect to ask for an explanation.
Master Fang naturally would not admit it. After all, the other party was just guessing and had no evidence. But in order to calm the other party's anger and find helpers, Master Fang joined forces with the people from Wanhua Valley and Jindao Sect to kill He Zhidao. He promised that as long as the monster was killed, the monster pill could be given to both factions.
Lingxu-level demon pills are extremely valuable. Yu Nanjue and Hua Jianyu have been stuck in the state of spiritual perfection for many years and have been looking for a way to break through. Even if they cannot use the demon pills, they can still exchange them for other precious resources.
"Uncle-master, the situation is not good. Among the four forces present, there are nine people whose cultivation levels I cannot see through. I have a way to escape by myself. Do you and Junior Brother He have any way to deal with it?" Pei Yun transmitted the message secretly.
She could just hide in the space by herself, and no one could do anything to her, but she couldn't bring He Zhidao and his disciples in with her.
He Zhidao drew a circle in the air with his two fingers. After the hundreds of light arrows entered the circle, they were instantly shattered. However, as this wave of light arrows disappeared, another wave of light arrows appeared from the magic circle and attacked He Zhidao, as if they were endless...
While dodging the attacks, he sent a message to Pei Yun and the other man: "When the fight starts, I will break the formation and open a gap. Pei Yun, you have a high level of cultivation, you can take He Jing away from here. Just bring him to a safe place, and you can go back to Beiqizhou on your own. I'm counting on you!"
"No problem." Pei Yun agreed.
"Master!" He Jing was worried about He Zhidao's situation and didn't want to escape alone.
"Idiot!" He Zhidao couldn't help but say, "Think about it, they were able to set up this magic array and ambush in advance. They must have known that my master is a demon. Then think about whether they know the location of Danhe Sect. Why don't you go back quickly and take your fellow apprentices away!"
Indeed, the fact that they were able to contact other forces in advance and set up an ambush by forming a magic array showed that the Qi Du Sect had known about He Zhidao's identity as a demon before this, and it was not exposed in the last level.
"Just follow the arrangements of my uncle. Junior brother, you can bring other junior brothers and sisters to my Yunshan Sect. I can't say anything else, but I can still protect one or two of them in the territory of Yunshan Sect." Pei Yun agreed with He Zhidao's opinion.
While they were discussing, the four forces had already started fighting. Master Yu of the Golden Sword Sect swung a long sword at the three people in the formation...
Hua Jianyu of Wanhua Valley pinched the magic formula while throwing a lotus into the magic circle. The lotus gradually grew larger in the air and pressed on the heads of the three people. At the same time, the lotus exuded a strange fragrance...
Three giant poisonous scorpions appeared in front of the leader of the Strange Poison Sect, spitting venom at the three people, their eyes glowing red, and their hard claws glowing coldly...
Cui Shizong, the head of the Cui family, urged the formation flag in his hand to control the incomplete demon-killing formation. More light arrows appeared in the formation and attacked He Zhidao...
Pei Yun and the other two not only had to face the oppression of the lotus above, but also the countless light arrows coming out from below. They were also threatened by poisonous scorpions and knife lights all around them. Attacks came from all directions, surrounding the three of them...
