Invasion Myth: Starting with the Schoolteacher

Chapter 684 Xiaoqing is very happy

Three years ago, I did have a carp spirit under my command, with a strange name, something like "Benbo".

The carp, though of mediocre cultivation, always loved to wander around. Later, it heard that a Dragon Palace brocade box had appeared in the eastern Taihu Lake area, so it volunteered to go and investigate. However, it never returned and was never heard from again.

The Salamander King thought to himself: Could it be... that the carp spirit has obtained a fortuitous opportunity, cultivated into a great demon, and returned?

But then I thought about it again and it seemed absurd. How could a mere nobody possibly transform into a "king" who could stand on equal footing with them in just three years?
Could it be a case of the same name? How could such a strange name be encountered by another person?
However... it's not impossible. Over the years, it has heard many names of demons related to travel and adventure from the aquatic creatures that come and go, and they all seem to be doing great things.

Songzi Kou Chong Wang was impatient with this hide-and-seek-like conversation.

The thousand compound eyes flickered slightly, revealing that although the "King of Rushing" was full of demonic energy, it was completely out of place with the Dongting water system. It had neither the gentle warmth of lakes and marshes nor the wildness of rushing rivers. Instead, it exuded an unfamiliar chill, as if it had never been immersed in the waters of Dongting.

Among the demon race, "crossing the water" is a symbol of becoming a citizen of another race.

If a new demon wants to establish itself in a certain body of water, it must first immerse itself in the local water veins, so that its demonic energy and the spiritual energy of the water can be integrated before it can be considered to have officially joined the group.

Just like crabs from Yangcheng Lake, once they cross the water, they are registered.

But the "King of the Busy World" before them had such a pure and almost abrupt demonic aura that he had clearly never left a trace in Dongting Lake.

The foreign demon race, colluding with human sword cultivators, overturned three water systems; they truly have audacity.

The four rivers and four mouths of Dongting Lake have been occupied by eight great demon kings for hundreds of years. Although they have fought each other, they have never suffered such a devastating loss.

Within just two days, three demon kings perished one after another, leaving not even a complete corpse behind!

The thousand compound eyes flickered uncertainly. "The corpse of the Shark King... not even a trace remained! Its demonic soul was wiped clean!"

"You guys... are so professional?" The King of Lotus Pond added sinisterly, his snake-shaped soft sword trembling slightly, clearly showing that he was not as calm as he appeared.

"You audacious extraterrestrial demon! How dare you..." King Luo Fei of Tiaoxiankou bristled with rage, his twin hammers clashing violently, unleashing a blazing wave of fire. However, before he could finish his harsh words, he was met with an even harsher retort from the other side—

"How dare you? How dare you kill your bunch of useless accomplices?" King Xiaoqing sneered. "What, are you allowed to run rampant and domineering monsters of Dongting Lake, but others are not allowed to fight back?"

A war of words? Baoantang isn't backing down at all!
Although we are outnumbered and might not gain an advantage in a direct confrontation, Baoantang has never lost when it comes to verbal sparring!

Moreover, Xiaoqing, who was practicing visualization, saw her spiritual level soar to new heights with the blessing of someone else.

One against five, he spouts old tricks, turns around and hurls insults at his relatives, and can even precisely weave in racial attacks—

"A rotten eel dares to call itself king? With three coils of waterweed around its waist, it insists on passing off as a jade belt and golden crown. Are you some kind of magical rolling pin? You could stretch a rolling pin into a belt with one strike!"

Upon hearing this, the Eel King of Lotus Pond nearly fell off the clouds. How...how...to insult me ​​like this? This is too much! Too much!
How am I supposed to get along with the Dongting demons in the future? Those uncultured people will definitely follow suit, and the nicknames of "belt" and "rolling pin" will likely stick around.

One mere eel spirit was certainly not enough to satisfy the all-powerful Little Green King, and he glared at him.

"A hundred legs and a thousand eyes? It's nothing but a filthy creature that burrows into the ground and gnaws on corpses! This mere reptile spirit is clearly a bastard born of a centipede spirit and a rotten sieve!"

The King of the Insects was immediately enraged, his compound eyes blinking as if they were about to spit fire. "I'm not a bastard... right?"

In an era before biology was widely known, and before people could even distinguish between phylum, class, order, and family, it was truly difficult to find a way to refute such a claim.

Seeing this scene, King Luo Fei suddenly felt like walking back. Being scolded in front of so many demons was really...

Xiaoqing immediately pointed a finger at it, even more vicious than the "Lifeless Finger," and said, "And you, that tilapia from Southeast Asia! Do you really think you're something rare? A bastard born of a toad and a broken shoe sole. If you hit it with a stone, it would probably splatter three pounds of foul-smelling pus."

A hybrid bastard. Foul-smelling pus. Your pretty little face doesn't look like the kind of demon who could say such things.

Luo Feiwang felt he couldn't take it anymore; this was on a completely different level from their previous verbal battles, and he was utterly powerless to fight back.

Then everyone looked at the giant salamander king, and said, "It's your turn, bro."

The giant salamander king said that his appearance had been attacked many times and would not be able to break through. You insects think you can make a fool of me?
dream!

Little Green King, true to form, changed his approach, opening with a limerick:

"His body was like rotten wood covered in mud, his head was flat like a shovel dripping with saliva, his four paws were short and thick like an infant's arm, and his whole body was covered in bumps and pus."

"Being ugly enough to be a poem is already a bargain for you."

Alright, alright, the giant salamander king was too ashamed to face anyone and could only look up at the sky. The stars were so beautiful tonight, especially the Azure Dragon constellation, which was exceptionally bright.

Why waste time arguing under such a beautiful starry sky? It's so painful.

Even if I, #￥@%#￥……%, and you, #@￥%#￥%……, joined forces to fight back, it wouldn't be as effective as Xu Xuan's clever words.

At this moment, King Xiaoqing was in high spirits, feeling exceptionally pleased to be at the forefront of the storm, and holding an absolute advantage.

These water monsters are not highly educated and usually act superior. They have never seen such a combination of vulgar and shrewish verbal battles with the sarcastic remarks of cultured people.

Finally, he was so scolded that his blood pressure spiked, his demonic energy became disordered, and even his soul began to stir restlessly.

The Songzikou Insect King's thousand eyes were congested with blood, the Ouchikou Eel King's slippery body was stiff with anger, and the Tilapia King was even more furious, smashing the water surface with his double hammers!
This foreign monster's every word is piercing and poisonous, and he even has some twisted talents; he is truly terrifying.

Even Xiaoqing herself was a little shocked after her rap, thinking, "How... am I so amazing?"

Could it be that imitating Xu Xuan has such miraculous effects?
Then came a burst of ecstasy; this was wonderful!

Meanwhile, the new Shushan disciples behind him, with Li Yingqi as their leader, began to record the words word by word—this was also a form of attack technique.

Only the Stone King remained silent in the room.

It was originally a spirit formed from a sunken stone at the bottom of the lake, not made of flesh and blood. It had neither relatives to insult nor race to mock, so it was naturally unaffected.

But seeing its companions thrown into disarray by the insults, it slowly raised the iron rod in its hand and said coldly:
“Enough with the cursing—” Stone King’s voice suddenly deepened, and he slammed his iron rod down hard, causing ripples to spread across the lake. “Now, let’s get down to business.”

It doesn't care about trivial matters like the overturning of three waterways, and it wouldn't matter if all the demons of Dongting were wiped out.

His gaze swept over the demons like cold iron, and he said, word by word:

"Where is my lord...?"

As soon as these words were spoken, the whole place fell silent.

The four demon kings were taken aback at first, then looked at each other in bewilderment—what did the Stone King mean by that? If His Majesty was not on Mount Jun, where else could he be?
Xiaoqing smiled coldly on the surface, but her heart sank suddenly!
How would I know!

Xu Xuan's smiling face flashed through her mind instantly.

"Xiaoqing, go to Dongting and start fighting. As for Yunzhongjun... leave him to hold him off."

As for how to stall? Who knows!

The scholar spoke so casually that she believed him and led the Bao'an Hall in a direct assault. But even after all this fighting, the legendary Lord of the Clouds, who supposedly ruled Dongting Lake, hadn't shown up at all!
Xu Xuan is awesome!

As for the demons eyeing her covetously... how could she, as the deputy hall master, show any fear? She immediately snorted coldly, slightly raised her chin, and continued to maintain an inscrutable expression:

"What? Your master has disappeared, and you're asking me about it?"

A blue light flashed in the Stone King's eyes, and he suddenly sneered:
"Playing tricks! You probably don't even know what's going on."

As he spoke, he raised the weapon in his hand, directly igniting the accumulated anger and rage.

Xiaoqing is genuinely anxious now. Oh, Master Yan, I can't keep up the act anymore…

Beneath Mount Jun, the bearded swordsman finally used all his means to open the two boxes.

A unique fragrance wafted out, quickly sweeping across the entire Dongting Lake area.

The fragrance was as clear and crisp as frost, yet it also carried a captivating sweetness and a hint of fishiness, like nectar mixed with dragon's blood. The moment the aquatic creatures in the lake smelled it, they were struck dumb—fish and shrimp froze, crabs stiffened, and even the demon soldiers who were about to fight Bao'an Hall suddenly stopped their battle.

In the next instant, all creatures went mad!

Sturgeon smashed through their scales, slicing through the waves like silver knives; blue crabs, even with severed claws, lunged forward; even the old turtle hidden deep in the mud stretched out its neck, its eyes bulging with bloodshot veins. The army of the five demon kings crumbled instantly. Shrimp soldiers and crab generals threw down their weapons, and no matter how the supervising officers hacked at them, they still charged towards Junshan with bloodshot eyes—no military orders, no fear, could withstand the roar boiling deep within their blood:

"Transform into a dragon! Transform into a dragon!"

"Stop them!" Stone King roared, smashing ten crab generals with his club, but more aquatic creatures slithered under his feet. At the mouth of the lotus pond, the serpentine sword of the Eel King entangled a group of silver carp spirits, but those usually timid fish demons actually tore their bodies off and continued swimming forward, dragging their half-broken bodies.

boom! boom!
Two blazing white beams of light suddenly erupted from the direction of Junshan Mountain, piercing the clouds like celestial swords. Simultaneously, two Dragon Palace brocade boxes opened, releasing seven-inch-long jade dragon shadows that circled the beams of light, chanting softly. Drawn by this, the other five brocade boxes trembled violently, their lids snapping open one after another—

Five beams of light shot upwards, joining the previous two to form a seven-star formation. The seven constellations of the Azure Dragon responded by lighting up their starlight, and the lake surface instantly reflected the countless stars in the sky.

The lake water began to rise and fall mysteriously.
