A leisurely life in the world of cultivation

Chapter 144 The Last Great Battle Before Ascending to the Spirit Realm

After the grenade was thrown in, a drone immediately flew in.

Situ Qingyue quietly stared at the remote control screen in Li Weizhou's hand. In the legends of immortals, what was this kind of treasure called again...?

On the screen, you can see some people lying haphazardly, and it's impossible to tell who's friend and who's foe.

Some were already dead, but others might be the people who spoke earlier, now lying on the ground pretending to be dead...

Li Weizhou had a good idea for dealing with this situation: to bomb it again.

"Boom boom boom boom!"

The saturation bombardment was so intense that even someone like Situ Qingyue felt sorry for it; it was such a waste…

Li Weizhou then handed two to each of the four girls and taught them how to use them.

After dropping them, he grabbed the four men and ran away, sprinting as fast as he could, until he was out of the city in one breath.

This move left not only the enemy bewildered, but also their own people completely baffled.

However, although Situ Qingyue was very opinionated, since Li Weizhou had already made his decision, she still followed him.

Emperor Wuzong was running away at an extremely fast speed.

They continued running after leaving the city, all the way to the sea. Li Weizhou summoned another boat, but it was completely different from the previous one. It was a World War II-era American patrol boat, which the Shan State had imported a long time ago. The cannons had already been decommissioned and removed.

Otherwise, Li Weizhou's divine sense wouldn't be able to move it; he could only move things he could lift back and forth. Strength was no problem on Earth, but in the Great Qian Dynasty, limited by cultivation levels, fifty tons was the limit.

Fortunately, the ship is equipped with two 7.62mm GAU-17A Gatling six-barreled rapid-fire machine guns. Although the caliber is not large, the rate of fire is extremely high, with a rate of fire of 6,000 rounds per minute. The resulting metal storm is enough to tear apart any normal carbon-based life form.

As for experts above the seventh level, they have a protective aura...

Li Weizhou understood it this way: no matter how indestructible this Vajra is, the protective energy is still energy, and as long as it is energy, it will eventually be exhausted.

Especially in the mortal realm, the spiritual energy of heaven and earth is mixed with filth and cannot be replenished on the spot, so the internal energy is limited.

Since it is limited, each bullet is equivalent to a normal martial arts master's strike. One bullet cannot shake it, and ten bullets cannot kill it. But what about a hundred or a thousand bullets fired in quick succession?
Unless you have knowledge of firearms and firearms and can dodge in time, otherwise...

With a rate of fire of 6,000 rounds per minute, it can blast everything apart!
After inviting the four women onto the boat, Li Weizhou started the patrol boat to escape, and at that moment, he finally heard some movement behind him.

A ghostly figure appeared, followed by a dozen or so experts.

These were secondary; among the group, there was a giant man, over three meters tall, whose body appeared rather stiff, but whose speed was incredibly fast, leaping forward...

Is this a zombie?

After Li Weizhou started the boat, he called to Zhou Yueniang to steer it slowly, and then called to Feng Biwu to turn the Gatling gun barrel and aim it at the shore.

Following Li Weizhou's example, Feng Biwu also gripped the Gatling gun with both hands and pulled the trigger on the handle.

"Fire!!"

“Da da da da da!!”

It did indeed look like firing, because the muzzle of the gun was indeed spitting fire outwards.

The effect is...

"what!"

"what!"

"what!"

The dozen or so people who rushed straight at high speed didn't even have time to react before blood blossomed on their bodies, and those who were unlucky were directly smashed into pieces.

In a martial arts world where even the Martial Masters are absent, a Breaking Six Martial Artist would already be a renowned figure, but at this moment, he was like cannon fodder, falling to the ground and dying without even causing a ripple.

The leader, a shadowy figure, was also hit by several shots, but this person had much more experience in the martial world. He immediately lay prostrate on the ground, disregarding his disheveled appearance, and rolled to the side at an extremely fast speed.

While instructing Feng Biwu to focus fire on the tall monster, Li Weizhou turned his gun on the leader.

The usually aloof Feng Biwu was now completely excited, her beautiful eyes flashing with a sharp light as she controlled the Gatling gun to fire fiercely at the monster that she didn't know what it was.

That monster was incredibly resilient. Despite being bombarded by concentrated fire and having bits of flesh flying everywhere, it didn't fall; it just slowly retreated.

After staring for a long time, Situ Qingyue's face turned extremely ugly, and she slowly uttered two words: "Demon Corpse".

Qi Erniang hurriedly asked, "Sir, what is a demonic corpse?"

Situ Qingyue didn't explain, but shook her head slightly and said to Li Weizhou, "Stop."

Li Weizhou stopped. The man's movement technique was truly superb. The few bullets that hit him were blocked by his protective qi, so they were not very effective. He said, "Leave the monster to me. I have a way."

Situ Qingyue nodded at him, told him to be careful, and after Feng Biwu stopped, she flew away like a sword immortal.

He lightly tapped his toes on the sea surface a few times, quickly approaching the dark shadow.

Li Weizhou went out with them. His affinity for water was even greater than Situ Qingyue's. He gracefully traversed the waves and headed towards the demonic corpse.

All three on the boat looked nervously toward the shore. Qi Erniang was about to follow, but Zhou Yueniang stopped her, saying, "Sister Erniang, don't be impulsive. Let's observe the situation first, in case anyone else comes. If we hold the boat, we'll hold our escape route."

Feng Biwu nodded and said, "Second Sister, don't be impulsive. Let's observe the situation first. Li Lang is not acting rashly."

Qi Erniang then realized what was happening and said, "Li Lang made such a commotion in the city just to lure the snake out of its hole?"

Feng Biwu said, "That's right. The city is their territory. The enemy is in the dark while we are in the light, which puts us at a great disadvantage. If we lure them to the shore, with the sea behind us, we will have a way to retreat and won't have to worry about an ambush."

Qi Erniang said, "What if they don't come along?"

Feng Biwu rolled her eyes at her and said, "They've killed so many experts these past few days, and they're feeling quite smug, with the demonic corpses as their trump card. Now, five new prey have fallen into their trap, but instead of being killed, they jumped up, bit them, and escaped, causing them a great loss. If you were in their shoes, would you chase after them?"

Qi Erniang stopped being argumentative and clicked her tongue in admiration, saying, "Li Lang is truly remarkable. He made a decisive move when necessary. If we had been a little slower in escaping, we probably would have been trapped in the city."

Zhou Yueniang pursed her lips and asked in confusion, "How could Qingyuan City have deteriorated to this extent?"

Feng Biwu, with his more experienced experience in the martial world, sneered, "Perhaps it's because the Demonic Sect used to have a leader who kept the members of each branch from showing their faces. Now that the leader has been killed, it's inevitable that some ambitious people will emerge to cause trouble."

Zhou Yueniang said, "Don't they know that they are doomed to defeat?"

Feng Biwu looked at Zhou Yueniang and said, "Whether we lose or not doesn't matter much. Making a big fuss will allow the leader to rise to prominence within the Demonic Sect. Now, there are less than three years until the Ascension Conference, only a little over two years left. Everyone knows that the Grand Minister of Justice will forcefully open the Heavenly Gate in his sixtieth year, and he probably won't have much time to deal with Jianghu affairs in the next two years. Moreover, with the old emperor and the crown prince dying at the same time, and the young grandson ascending the throne, such a shocking change will naturally cause unrest among the people. What could be a better time than now?"

Qi Erniang asked Feng Biwu, "Do you know what a demonic corpse is?"

Feng Biwu shook his head and said, "I don't know. These are just my guesses, and they are my guesses of the best-case scenario."

Zhou Yueniang's expression grew even more serious upon hearing this, and she asked, "Sister Feng, this is still the best-case scenario, so what would be a bad-case scenario?"

Feng Biwu sighed softly and said, "If these people are from Jinghong Valley or Tiannan Prince's Mansion, or even if the two have joined forces, that would be terrible. However, no one knows for sure what's going on right now."

Not only was she unaware of what was happening, but Li Weizhou, who was engaged in a fierce battle with the demonic corpse, was also clueless.

But it doesn't matter, whoever it is, I'll beat the son of a bitch to a pulp!

Li Weizhou certainly wouldn't engage in a head-on fight with a monster; he would simply maneuver around it.

This monster's straight-line speed was astonishing, showing no signs of the speed one would expect from a giant.

However, the speed will decrease slightly when turning.

Now, Li Weizhou is becoming increasingly adept at using the Seven Star Steps, making him best suited to deal with this situation.

But we can't just go around in circles without attacking. It's just that there aren't many conventional firearms that can be used against monsters that even Gatling guns can't tear apart.

First, they fired a few shots with the big revolver, but it didn't have much effect.

Even with assault rifles, they still couldn't inflict effective damage.

The monster was too fast, so grenades weren't very effective.

Even landmines are not very effective. These things are inanimate objects, and their bodies are woven from steel wires, so they can't be blown up at all.

Li Weizhou's body on Earth had just arrived at a sealed armory and quickly came up with an idea...

Suddenly, two iron cans appeared on his back, and he held a nozzle-like object in his hand. He used the "Heavenly Power Flash Shadow" technique to flash behind the demon corpse, and then the nozzle in his hand instantly spat out a long tongue of fire.

The demonic corpse burst into flames the moment it was hit by the spray.

The demonic corpse itself is not only impervious to swords and spears, but it may also be immune to ordinary water and fire. However, the flames shot out by the flamethrower are not ordinary flames. The flames contain thickened oil, which is not only very sticky, but also has a temperature far higher than ordinary flames, reaching a high temperature of 1,200 degrees Celsius. Anything attached to it that has even a trace of flammability will be ignited until it is burned to ashes.

Although the demonic corpse felt no pain, it clearly loathed fire, constantly opening its mangled mouth and roaring as it relentlessly pursued Li Weizhou.

Unfortunately, Li Weizhou's movements were unpredictable and he didn't engage in combat at all. His figure was like a phantom, constantly spitting out tongues of fire at it.

If this drags on, we'll wear down this demonic corpse sooner or later.

Compared to Li Weizhou's sneaky playstyle, Situ Qingyue's play was much more entertaining.

Sword intent soars to the heavens!

Legend has it that she wielded the "Eastern Emperor Sword Technique," created by the ancient Eastern Emperor in the Moon Palace, with unparalleled skill. Amidst the countless sword shadows, the intensity of her sword intent almost surpassed the realm that should exist in the mortal world.

Strange phenomena occasionally occur.

Although it is still a move from the "Eastern Emperor Sword Manual", the sword intent clearly surpasses the level that this sword technique should have.

If the black-haired old monster from Shangqing Palace were here, or if Xiao Yichen were here, they might discover some clues...

However, her adversaries were no ordinary people; they were clearly not just ordinary martial saints, but were only a hair's breadth away from the martial god realm.

Holding a pair of bone-piercing cones, the sand grains were stirred up and flew everywhere. The bone-piercing cones would strike swiftly like venomous snakes from time to time, vicious and ruthless.

It can be seen that this person was not only not suppressed by the sword intent, but even had a slight advantage, making the fight extremely dangerous.

Situ Qingyue dodged repeatedly, her toes touching the crest of the wave, her green dress billowing in the wind like a goddess soaring through the air.

The man in black swept his twin cones in a crisscross motion, but this time Situ Qingyue did not dodge in advance as before. She simply twisted her wrist, and her longsword pierced half an inch into the gap between the cones. Using the force of the man's pullback, she spun around and slammed the back of her sword into his wrist. This move, "Eastern Emperor Returns Snow," seemed dangerous and graceful, but it yielded a surprisingly good result. A flower of blood bloomed on the man in black's shoulder blade.

"Damn it!"

The man in black roared and immediately changed his move, the bone-piercing spike bringing a foul stench as it aimed straight for his face, as swift as thunder.

Instead of retreating, Situ Qingyue advanced, her left foot creating a shallow pit in the sand. Her body spun rapidly like a top, and the sword shadow transformed into a ring of light, which was the "Eastern Emperor Ringing Moon" from the "Eastern Emperor Sword Manual".

Feng Biwu was also a master swordsman, but upon witnessing this, he was greatly alarmed and couldn't help but sincerely admire him, saying, "Lord Situ's swordsmanship is so superb that it's truly like a sword immortal descending to earth. The subtlety of his sword intent is unparalleled."

It had already reached such a high level that she could only admire it, and she didn't know when she would be able to reach such a level of sword intent.

elusive.

Zhou Yueniang nodded and said, "I heard my husband say before that Sister Situ can break through the seventh and eighth levels of magic. I never dared to imagine it before, but after seeing it today, I know just how strong she is."

The black-clad man's bone-piercing spike struck the sword light, causing his opponent's hand to go numb and forcing him to retreat in shock and anger. However, Situ Qingyue had already changed her move again, her sword tip slashing diagonally like a gazelle's horns, leaving a second bloody gash on her opponent's wrist.

Seeing the black-clad man's double-pointed attack intensify in his rage, she suddenly withdrew her sword and retreated, her sword intent surging.

It was as if another bright moon had risen from the sea, and the man in black was shocked, seemingly unable to believe that someone in the world could cultivate sword intent to such a level.

However, the moon rises and sets in the blink of an eye, and in despair, the man in black hastily used a bone-piercing cone made of black iron to meet the enemy.

But how could it possibly withstand Situ Qingyue, who had just refined and elevated her sword intent once again? The pair of bone-piercing cones emitted a piercing sound and then snapped into four pieces.

The bloodstains on the black-clad man's chest looked as if they had been scorched by moonlight. As he staggered backward, he saw Situ Qingyue in green robes fluttering in the wind. With the soft sound of her long sword returning to its sheath, only the lingering shadow of her sword intent still floated slowly behind her.

"Good swordsmanship!"

The man in black slowly uttered a word, then collapsed and died.

Situ Qingyue slowly exhaled, her eyes shining brightly like the moon.

If she had encountered such an enemy two days ago, even if she could have suppressed him, it would have been extremely difficult for her to kill him on her own.

And now...

She gripped the sword tightly, her heart filled with boundless pride.

Then her gaze shifted to the other side, where the man who had brought her so many adventures was fighting an enemy.

Li Weizhou was still engaging in a sneaky fight, poking the demonic corpse with a thick steel bar, spending most of his time running away.

However, the moment the man in black fell to the ground, the demonic corpse suddenly froze and stopped moving.

Li Weizhou exclaimed "Huh?" Situ Qingyue walked over, her brows furrowed, and said, "Don't get close. Demonic corpses should belong to the spirit realm, extremely yin and poisonous. I don't know why they've appeared in the mortal world. Fortunately, this is the lowest grade, a demonic corpse that hasn't developed intelligence, otherwise it would be a huge problem. No one should be allowed to get close to this thing. Once it's tainted by demonic energy, there's no cure in the mortal world."

Li Weizhou was skeptical, but with a gentle wave of his hand, the terrifying corpse, over ten feet tall, vanished without a trace.

On Earth, something suddenly appeared in the sea of ​​blood, gurgled twice, and then sank to the bottom of the sea without moving again...

Situ Qingyue: "..."

……

Extremely Yin and Extremely Poisonous?

Ah.

If this thing were extremely masculine and powerful, Li Weizhou might have to be wary. If he were to obtain the corpse of a Buddha, its immense power might even harm the Blood Sea.

It can be insidious...

What else in the world could be more insidious than the sea of ​​blood that absorbs the "filthy blood" of all living beings?
He blinked and looked at Situ Qingyue, who was watching him with concern, and said, "It's alright now. Sister Situ, is the matter resolved?"

Situ Qingyue stared at him and said, "Are you alright? Be careful not to get tainted by demonic energy. I don't know much about that stuff, but it's said to corrode a person's flesh and soul. Even in the spirit world, it's an extremely vicious thing."

Li Weizhou smiled and said, "Don't worry, as long as it's an inanimate object, whatever it is, it can only expand my space."

Situ Qingyue let out a soft breath, smiled helplessly, and said, "The rules of this world don't seem to apply much to you. But you'll have to be more restrained when you get to the Spirit Realm."

Li Weizhou laughed and said, "Don't worry, I'm not stupid. So we can relax for the next two years. After this period, who knows how many more years we'll have to be submissive wives."

Situ Qingyue didn't believe it and chuckled, "You can be a submissive wife?"

After Zhou Yueniang groped her way to turn the ship upside down, and the other three got ashore, Zhou Yueniang first asked with concern, "Husband, Sister Situ, are you alright?"

Li Weizhou nodded with a smile, and Situ Qingyue said, "We have already killed one, but we still cannot be careless until we find the source of the demon corpse."

Li Weizhou said, "Let's go look during the day. I reckon daytime will have a suppressive effect on these things. Yueniang, do you know where the Demonic Sect's headquarters is?"

Zhou Yueniang rolled her eyes at him and said, "How would I know!"

Her dad never took her there...

Li Weizhou chuckled and looked at Situ Qingyue.

Situ Qingyue hesitated and said, "I do know where the Demonic Sect's headquarters is, but even the Grand Master of Justice wouldn't go there easily."

Li Weizhou understood and asked, "Is there also a Martial God Realm expert hidden here?"

Situ Qingyue nodded and said, "There are at least two, or even three. Although most of them are barely clinging to life, relying on absorbing and refining spiritual energy to maintain their remaining lifespan, once we enter the Demonic Sect's headquarters, they will fight us at all costs. With our current strength, we would have a hard time dealing with even one of them."

She is brave, but not reckless.

Li Weizhou said, "Then let's go and ask the Grand Master to handle it?"

Situ Qingyue shook her head and said, "The Grand Master has already gone into seclusion to adjust his condition. He will not take action again before forcibly opening the Heavenly Gate, unless these people attack the capital. Moreover, I have already taken on this matter. After it is completed, the Imperial Punishment Department will not bother me for the next two and a half years."

Li Weizhou understood. He said, "If we lure those old ghosts out, will they stop going crazy?"

Situ Qingyue smiled and said, "You have a way?"

Qi Erniang said excitedly, "Li Lang's divine weapons will surely kill those old monsters!"

Situ Qingyue shook her head and said, "I was just about to tell you that such weapons may seem formidable at first glance, but they are not difficult to defend against if one is careful. External objects can be used as supplementary forces, but they should not be relied upon too much. The right path is to rely on one's own strength."

Feng Biwu agreed, saying, "Without the addition of internal energy or sword intent, its power is ultimately limited. It is very effective against ordinary Martial Grandmasters and those below Martial Grandmaster, but it is not enough against Martial Grandmasters at the highest level and above."

Moreover, there are those powerful spiritual beings in the spirit realm.

Seeing Li Weizhou glancing sideways at the two of them with his eyes narrowed, Situ Qingyue found it amusing and said, "However, dealing with ordinary experts is much easier. If those dozen or so hadn't died today, we wouldn't have been able to fight them so easily."

Zhou Yueniang asked, "What do we do now?"

Li Weizhou said, "You all get on the boat first, I'll put these people up."

Qi Erniang asked, "How do we insert it?"

Li Weizhou laughed and said, "You can just get on the ship and watch."

After the four women boarded the boat, Li Weizhou went to the beach, got some steel pipes, and hung the dozen or so corpses on them one by one, sticking them into the shore.

Then, they started digging holes and planting mines...

They're not afraid of harming ordinary people. Who among the ordinary people would dare to come here now?

After finishing his fuss, he returned to the ship and said smugly, "Let's go have some drinks and enjoy the night view while we're still dark. Let's experience the feeling of 'being drunk and unaware that the sky is reflected in the water, with a ship full of sweet dreams pressing down on the Milky Way.'"

Hearing him say that, everyone's tense and anxious hearts relaxed again.

Apart from Zhou Yueniang, the other three all possess considerable knowledge of poetry.

As they savored the line, "Drunk, unaware that the sky is reflected in the water, a boat full of sweet dreams presses down on the Milky Way," the gazes directed at Li Weizhou seemed to melt him.

Indeed, few women can resist a man's talent.

Soon, they began to enjoy the fine wine and snacks that Li Weizhou had brought out. Even Situ Qingyue followed her heart, appreciating the spring moon, the night breeze, and her beloved, feeling quite content.

However, as the night wore on, the effects of the alcohol and drowsiness took hold, and Zhou Yueniang, Qi Erniang, and Feng Biwu ended up taking a nap in the sleeping bags that Li Weizhou had prepared.

Looking at the three of them sleeping soundly, Li Weizhou softly asked Situ Qingyue, "Aren't you going to sleep for a while?"

Situ Qingyue shook her head slightly, gently stroking the sword, and said, "Observe the sword, comprehend the sword, use the sword, and then you must experience it with your heart."

A master must possess both extraordinary talent and extraordinary effort...

Li Weizhou said thoughtfully, "It's similar to when I practice the Seven Star Steps." He then asked, "Do we still need to use the Thunder Pool? Why didn't you use your supernatural powers today?"

Situ Qingyue smiled and said, "There's no time for that now, so we won't use it for the time being. Besides, sword intent needs constant practice to improve. Relying too much on supernatural powers will delay one's own cultivation."

Li Weizhou could tell that this woman still harbored the ambition for her husband to succeed.

He pondered for a moment and said, "There are nuances to supernatural powers... Xiaoyue, you have the power of thunder, specifically the Gengjin Divine Thunder, but the Thunder Pool only replenishes ordinary lightning. Would you like to increase your Gengjin power? Supernatural powers and techniques can be used sparingly or not at all in normal times, but they can be used as trump cards in critical moments to save your life."

Situ Qingyue became interested and asked, "How do I add the power of Geng metal?"

Li Weizhou's eyes became meaningful as he said, "Naturally, it will be your husband who lends you a hand..."

Situ Qingyue: "..."

She was both annoyed and amused, and rolled her eyes at Li Weizhou.

He continued, "The power of Geng metal might even enhance the divine might of the sword..."

"shut up!"

Situ Qingyue interrupted his seduction. No matter what, she couldn't possibly mess around with this guy in front of the other three. She said irritably, "We'll talk about this later. Calm your mind. Tomorrow's battle will be our last before we ascend to the Spirit Realm. Don't be careless."

Li Weizhou chuckled dryly, "What are you thinking... You go and comprehend the sword, I'll keep an eye on things for a while."

The sound of waves, carried by the slightly salty night breeze, wafted in. Situ Qingyue sat cross-legged, holding her sword in both hands. In the moonlight, the sword reflected her exquisitely beautiful profile.

Li Weizhou looked at her for a moment. Whether it was to save his life or because he was attracted by her beauty, she was now more and more imprinted in his heart.

After a while, he sat down beside him, the sword mark between his brows shimmering faintly, and a profound sword intent spread out like a thin mist, gently enveloping the two of them.

Situ Qingyue looked up at him, her gaze as gentle as the moonlight tonight. She noticed that his brows and eyebrows were becoming more and more handsome and upright, yet there was always a hint of nonchalant wickedness in the corners of his eyes and brows, like a night with stars hidden, half bright and half dark.

A faint smile appeared on her lips, and she finally closed her eyes slowly, letting the intertwined sword intent rise and fall with the sound of the waves.

……

"boom!"

"Boom boom boom!"

The sky was still dark, and the appearance of dark clouds made it even darker, with not a glimmer of moonlight.

However, a series of explosions suddenly rang out on the coast.

The three people who were resting in their sleeping bags immediately woke up, and Situ Qingyue also opened her eyes, her eyes gleaming.

Li Weizhou laughed and said, "Don't open your eyes."

Remembering something, the four immediately closed their eyes. At that moment, the patrol boat was only about 300 paces from the shore. Li Weizhou took out two flashbangs, knocked them open, and threw them out.

With his current arm strength, walking three or four hundred steps is child's play.

"Boom!"

Two loud bangs were secondary; what truly ignited was the intense, blinding light that caused the night raiders to cover their eyes and scream in agony.

Li Weizhou chuckled, put on his night vision goggles, and began firing:
Da da da da da!
A fierce metal storm ravaged the crowds on the coast.

Suddenly, the sound of a sword being drawn was heard, and Situ Qingyue rose up and slashed down with her sword. A figure in black suddenly rose from the water and swung a giant sword heavily.

"Crack!"

Under the worried gazes of Zhou Yueniang and the others, just as Situ Qingyue's sword clashed with the giant sword, a thunderclap suddenly exploded on the giant sword and instantly transmitted to the man in black.

Although the power of the thunder was not as abundant as when fighting the old monster of Shangqing Palace, it still had a miraculous effect when caught off guard.

The man in black froze in disbelief for a moment before the head on his neck flew off.

Just then, a powerful figure in black appeared on the other side of the sea with a "bang".

Holding a precious sword, he was exceptionally skilled, but before he could unleash his fury, Zhou Yueniang struck in an instant.

He pointed and sent out a copper coin. Unlike ordinary copper coins, this one was covered in a layer of golden light. It transformed into a streak of light and suddenly struck the enemy.

The man in black clearly hadn't expected Zhou Yueniang's hidden weapon to be so fast. In his haste, he tried to protect himself with his sword, but before the sword could reach him, a thin slit appeared between his eyebrows, and the same thing happened to the back of his head.

The man in black died without understanding how he died; his eyes were filled with resentment and terror as he fell.

"Moon Maiden, set sail! Sail in! Biwu, Second Sister, retrieve those two corpses. Something's not right. The Demonic Sect members are wearing ghost masks."

Li Weizhou continued firing while shouting loudly.

Almost everyone on the shore was dead, and the few remaining skilled individuals scattered and fled like monkeys.

Feng Biwu grabbed a severed head, while Qi Erniang pulled up the corpse of the person Zhou Yueniang had killed. They pulled off the black cloths that were tightly covering their faces... You're overthinking it; they don't know them.

It doesn't matter if they don't know each other, Situ Qingyue does.

"What a magnificent Jinghong Valley! What a magnificent Tiannan Prince's Mansion!"

Situ Qingyue's expression was more solemn than ever before, her brows furrowed.

She didn't recognize the expert who used the double cones before; perhaps he was a member of the Demonic Sect.

But she recognized these two people. How many Martial Grandmaster level experts are there in the world?

They were all prominent figures in the martial arts world back then, and many had served in the Imperial Prison...

Everyone was shocked to hear this. Among the eight kings and eight clans, Jinghong Valley and Tiannan Royal Mansion were the corresponding king and clan in the Tiannan region. How could they be mixed up together?
Feng Biwu sneered, "No wonder Qingyuan City is so corrupt; it turns out the three families are colluding together."

Qi Erniang said, "It seems that the fact that the Grand Master of Justice is going to forcibly open the Heavenly Gate in two years has made them think that they have an opportunity to take advantage of it."

Zhou Yueniang turned around and asked, "Why not wait until the Grand Master opens the Heavenly Gate and Sister Situ ascends to the Spirit Realm before causing trouble? Isn't making a scene now just courting death?"

After reloading the magazine, Li Weizhou laughed and said, "Those two families are quite audacious. They wanted to use the name of the Demonic Sect to kill people and then provoke a battle between the Imperial Execution Division and the Demonic Sect's headquarters. But I guess they didn't expect that so many people would come to ambush them, and even two Martial Grandmasters would lower themselves to launch a sneak attack, yet they were all wiped out."

Situ Qingyue shook her head and said, "Martial Grandmaster? This person is a true Martial Saint, the latest Supreme Elder of Jinghong Valley in recent years. The one that Yue Niang killed was the second-ranked retainer of Tiannan Royal Mansion, who was also a newly promoted Martial Saint."

"..."

Upon hearing this, Feng Biwu and Qi Erniang both turned to look at Zhou Yueniang, who was still piloting the ship, their eyes wide with surprise.

The matriarch of the household is already capable of killing a Martial Saint?!
Li Weizhou had Zhou Yueniang stop the boat and came over to talk to her.

Zhou Yueniang laughed and said, "This is the power of the divine abilities that arise from the Hidden God Palace. You two hurry up!"

Feng Biwu pursed her lips and nodded.

Qi Erniang looked at Li Weizhou expectantly and urged him, "Give it your all!"

After Zhou Yueniang chuckled, she scolded, "Behave yourself, or Sister Situ will punish you."

Qi Erniang was startled, but Situ Qingyue didn't seem to care, saying, "Everyone has their own way of getting along; do whatever makes you comfortable." Then she asked Li Weizhou, "What are your thoughts?"

Li Weizhou pondered for a moment and then said seriously, "We can try harder and try more positions... Ouch!"

After being poked by the sword sheath, Li Weizhou laughed heartily and looked at Situ Qingyue, who was glaring at him, and said, "Now that they have been exposed, they will definitely mobilize a large number of people to chase and besiege us, and not let us return to the capital alive."

If we were on land, we might really be in trouble. With the King, the Sect, and the remaining strength of the Demonic Sect all sent out, unless the Grand Master personally arrives, or the Imperial Punishment Bureau sends a few old-timers, plus a few Martial Saints, even if a single person breaks through to the ninth level comes, let alone breaking through to the eighth level, they might not be able to get away with it.

But we are on the high seas...

"Hehe, Sister Situ, didn't you think my divine weapon's power was limited? Today, I'll show you!"

Didn't they think the Gatling gun's power was too limited?
How about a 20mm caliber machine gun?
But when it comes to naval battles, there are even more awesome weapons...

Amidst a burst of laughter, Li Weizhou brazenly pinched Situ Qingyue's cheek before running off to start the boat.

Situ Qingyue simply smiled nonchalantly and casually kicked the head of that Supreme Elder of Jinghong Valley into the sea...

Zhou Yueniang and the other two burst into laughter.
