Chapter 335: Miss, Please Wait
In the wilderness, the sinister figure and Mother Ghost watched the terrifying sight of endless demonic clouds covering the sky without any emotional response.
However, the demons hidden intentionally among the mountains below were not detected by the demons within the dark clouds.
Of course, even if they had noticed, they wouldn't have paid any attention.
After all, given the chaotic situation and the influx of monsters within the Fire Pass Country, the Green Hell Cave's flamboyant mobilization will certainly attract the attention of various parties.
Not far away from the vast demonic clouds, in the void, a cold-faced woman dressed in a scarlet robe was staring apathetically at the Green Hell Cave's procession of demons, her presence openly displayed with no attempt to conceal it.
The appearance of this scarlet-clad woman was detected by many demons within the demonic clouds.
However, none of the demons took the initiative to provoke her.
After all, this woman didn't possess the Fire God's divine power and was not a wizard of the Fire God Temple.
The current situation within the Fire Pass Country is chaotic, with not only numerous demons and evil creatures coming around in response to the rumors, but also many foreign cultivators coming to join in the fun.
Although these cultivators cultivate orthodox cultivation, not every cultivator bears a deep-seated hatred towards evil and would fight to the death with the Green Hell Cave.
This scarlet-clad woman is of high cultivation level, and since she didn't take the initiative to provoke them, they were also too lazy to bother with her.
Of course, if General Tiger Dragon of the Three Demons Army or Xiao Juechen of the Four Elders were here, they would be terrified and dumbstruck upon seeing this scarlet-clad woman.
However, both Xiao Juechen and General Tiger Dragon are absent, and leading the troops here are Yin Yue Gumo and the Tiancan Taoist, alongside with Niu Tie Yi.
As a result, the enormous demonic cloud covered the sky and obscured the sun as it passed, but all the evil creatures ignored the scarlet-clad woman in the distance.
From a distance, Lian Cangqing watched the procession of the evil creatures and the Demon Sutra passing by. However, she couldn't find the figure of the Heavenly Demon Lord within the demonic cloud, which caused her to furrow her brows slightly.
She was about to leave when she suddenly noticed a streak of light rushing towards her from a distance, intercepting her directly.
The one in the streak of light was a burly man dressed in a scholar's robe.
Facing Lian Cangqing, the man grinned and clasped his fists, saying, "My name is Ao Tianxing, the unrivaled and solitary figure who strides across the world. I wonder what is the name and origin of the lady I'm privileged to meet."
This strange man suddenly striking up a conversation caused Lian Cangqing to furrow her brows slightly.
Because she discovered something strange - this ill-intentioned guy had surprisingly clear eyes and no evil intentions towards her, showing that he was not a frivolous person who came to harass her.
If he wasn't coveting her physical appearance, then what did the other party want by abruptly rushing towards her like that?
Slightly puzzled in her heart, Lian Cangqing remained indifferent and said, "It's none of your business!"
After speaking, Lian Cangqing intended to leave.
However, she had just turned around when a loud dragon roar came from behind.
Immediately after, the fierce wind rushed towards her face.
"Miss, please wait a moment!"
The ferocious fist wind, carrying a roaring golden dragon, flew past Lian Cangqing.
With a serious expression, Ao Tianxing said, "I can tell that you are exceptional, coming to see the invading demonic army in such dire circumstances; you must not be an ordinary person."
"If you were to tell me your name and have a good fight with me, it would not be in vain for your extraordinary cultivation base."
Ao Tianxing's words made Lian Cangqing wear an odd expression.
She looked at the man in front of her again and said, "So you're a madman…good! Since you're looking to die, let me give you a technique."
Without waiting for Ao Tianxing's response, Lian Cangqing raised her fair right hand and struck a palm as she finished speaking.
"Miss…pfft…"
Before Ao Tianxing, who had just spoken, could react, he was blasted away by a tremendous palm force, turning into a brilliant meteor that disappeared into the sky.
Lian Cangqing watched as the brilliant light crossed the sky and knew that this strike didn't take away her opponent's life.
It seems that although this lunatic who calls himself Ao Tianxing is insane, his strength is quite impressive.
However, she always despised crazed people like him, therefore she could not be bothered to pay him any attention.
Directly leaving this place, Lian Cangqing flew towards the place where the Dragon Soul is about to appear.
Since the Heavenly Demon Lord is not here, they might be found where the Dragon Soul appears.
That old guy has also survived the Earthly Catastrophe, which is a pleasant surprise for Lian Cangqing.
Because of this, she can personally slay this old demon and vent her hatred!
Beneath the azure sky, Lian Cangqing departed with the power of escape light.
Meanwhile, in Yanjing City, upon receiving the news of the demon invasion, the wizards of the Fire God Temple, who were already prepared, immediately convened and formed a defensive formation for Yanjing City, closing the city gates and cleaning up the streets.
Yesterday's bustling and lively Yanjing City is now deserted and desolate, with empty and cold streets.
People are hiding in their own homes, afraid to go out without permission.
As for the capture of demon spies, it began straight away at the moment of locking down the city.
In these recent days, the intense activities of the demon spies were almost completely visible to the prepared eyes of the Fire God Temple. However, these spies were not dealt with in order to deceive the Green Hell Cave.
Now that the demons are invading and Yanjing City is locked down, the impending battle cannot tolerate these scoundrels who are acting as henchmen for the demons and allowing them to frolic around any longer.
Beneath the suspended island, one floating boat after another rapidly flew by, and one radiance after another fell into the residential area below.
Each beam of radiance that falls represents a demon lair being destroyed and several demon spies being captured.
High up in the sky, within the Fire God Temple, Lianshan Yue, who acted as the commander-in-chief of all city affairs, now stood beside the enormous sacred fire. Through the sacred fire, she was overlooking the entire scenery of the city and occasionally issuing new commands.
Although it may seem like nonsense in front of Lu Heng, as the head of the royal family and bearing the title of "Lord of Yan Country," she is one of the top authorities in power within the Fire God Country.
There are no more than five people within the Fire God Temple who have the power to surpass her.
As someone who holds a high position, when dealing with important national affairs, she would naturally not act recklessly. Instead, she would skillfully and efficiently handle all matters within the city.
She issued one command after another - detaining and catching demon spies, stabilizing the situation within the city, guiding residents from outside the city to take refuge, deploying the Flame Capital Great Array, and summoning wizards to prepare to block and kill demons…Under her direction, many matters were being carried out in an orderly manner.
There were no mistakes or flaws.
At this moment, in the Green Hell Cave, located in the mountains fifty miles to the west of Yanjing City, there was no one paying attention to the situation where the demon army was at the border.
The demon clouds covered the sky and came from the east, causing all eyes in this world to now turn towards the east, awaiting the final battle between the demon army and the wizards.
These mountains and forests, far away from the battlefield, remained as peaceful and quiet as ever.
The birds and beasts in the mountains continued their lives as usual, with no one aware of the impending crisis that was to come.
And it was precisely in this peaceful atmosphere that dozens of figures suddenly appeared in the mountains all at once.
They stood in an open space in the mountains and scanned the empty forests around them. As planned, they didn't attract the attention of the wizards from the Fire Pass Country.
The leader, the Lord of All Demons, spoke, "Prepare to draw the earth's qi and gather the dragon's soul!"
