Chapter 154 I Will Summon an Ancient Demon! (Two Chapters Combined)
"Brother Li, where are we going to stay?"
Xing Tian gave a terrible idea: "How about we go and beg the transport captain for money?"
"If I remember correctly, he should be in Shanghai right now, doing speculation and playing the stock market on the side."
Stop talking nonsense.
Lu Li directly interrupted his delusions.
They're really risking their lives.
He nudged Xing Tian with his elbow. "Old Xing, I'm giving you a task: go buy a villa. We're not used to using a place without a flush toilet. If you dare install a dry toilet or a public toilet, I'll kill you."
Xing Tian: "."
He wanted to ask, "Where's the money? Who's going to give me the money?"
But after thinking about it, I decided against it.
He has a clear understanding of his position in Lu Li's heart.
Although Lu Li threatens him and bullies him every day, he still loves him in truth.
Otherwise, he would have died countless times over.
But if he pushes his luck, then Brother Li really will kill him.
In other words, Lu Li would not choose to kill him if he was in a situation where killing was optional.
That's all.
"Alright then." What else could Xing Tian say?
However, he maintained his usual "cowardly" strategy, "Brother Li, can you come with me? I'm scared."
Lu Li chuckled. "You're afraid even during the day?"
"Yeah! I'm scared!"
Xing Tian's words were neither reasonable nor righteous, but they were also full of bravado.
Seeing that Lu Li didn't respond, Xing Tian immediately added, "I'll pay for it."
"Let's go!"
Lu Li immediately agreed.
Fang Yuebai and the others standing nearby were speechless.
Lu Li's personality was completely under her control.
Only Li Tingchan said she didn't care.
They're poor, so Master's actions show he knows how to manage his finances.
It can only be said that even monsters will experience a drop in intelligence once they develop a romantic mindset.
Three hours later—
In the newly purchased mansion, Xing Tian returned to the first-floor reception room and sat down. "Brother Li, I've checked. There's no strange place like a basement here, and there are no hidden compartments in the walls."
"Hmm, then from now on this place will be called the Lu Mansion."
Lu Li sat down as well. "Now that everything is done, let's talk business."
He looked at Xing Tian, his face bearing a gentle smile, but he exerted a great deal of pressure on Xing Tian. "Old Xing, what is your mission this time?"
"Make that person surrounded by demons and monsters disappear from this world. That's the original mission statement, and I haven't changed a single word." Xing Tian was very honest.
There was no way around it; he could sense Lu Li's attitude just from his tone.
If you try to be cunning at this point, you'll probably suffer a terrible fate later.
Moreover, to complete the mission, they might still have to rely on Lu Li's powerful connections.
Xing Tian was quite self-aware of being a good leg hair.
"Hmm," Lu Li rubbed his chin, "Is this the monster that plans to take over the demon kingdom on earth? After all, according to you, the quest prompt doesn't say whether the other party is human or not."
"A monster? What monster?"
Xing Tian was stunned for a moment.
"Oh, is that so?" Since Xing Tian was still needed, Lu Li told him about the news that Li Tingchan had brought.
"That's the situation right now. Old Xing, what are your thoughts?"
Xing Tian thought for a moment and decided to tell Lu Li his guess in a more tactful way, "Brother Li, look. Last night you were surrounded by human head balloons, and that Bewitching Demon was especially afraid of you. Also, although the mission didn't specify that it was limited to humans, it didn't say that humans didn't count either."
"Is it possible that the target they're referring to is you, Brother Li? Of course, this is just a guess, and it might not be correct."
"That makes sense." Lu Li nodded. "Then come on, make me disappear from this world."
He beckoned to Xing Tian, "Come here."
Pan Shuai and the others standing nearby immediately became sharp-tongued.
Li Tingchan exuded a murderous aura.
If Lu Li hadn't stopped him, Xing Tian would probably have been killed by Li Tingchan's murderous aura.
"I really didn't mean it!" Xing Tian admitted without even thinking. "Brother Li! Trust me!"
Although Lu Li intercepted most of the killing intent directed at him, he was still forced to kneel down on one knee by the pressure of Li Tingchan's killing intent. His face turned red, black, and purple, and even his eyes were bloodshot.
He was about to stop breathing.
"Alright, Achan." Lu Li patted Li Tingchan's shoulder, and Li Tingchan obediently withdrew her killing intent.
"Whoosh—whoosh—"
Xing Tian knelt on the ground, panting heavily.
He almost died just now; he's already seen it all flash before his eyes.
"It's nothing." Lu Li personally helped Xing Tian up. "Old Xing, don't worry, my trust in you is stronger than the Maginot Line."
Xing Tian: "???"
That means there's absolutely no trust left!
However, he dared not express any doubt about Lu Li's historical knowledge.
What if Lu Li said, "I know, but what did you think?"
He'll really be in an awkward position then.
"However, your mission is quite interesting. It only says to get the target out of this world, not to kill the target."
Lu Li stroked his smooth chin. "So that's why you suspected it was mine, right?"
Xing Tian nodded. "Brother Li, your insight is brilliant."
It couldn't possibly be anyone else.
As a "world traveler," he is surrounded by ghosts who even take bullets for him (although Lu Li manually controls the process), and the monsters are particularly afraid of him.
Who else could it be but him?
Moreover, Xing Tian doesn't believe Lu Li is human from the bottom of his heart.
This guy is clearly a monster in human skin!
"Forget it, we'll talk about that later. Anyway, there's no time limit for your mission. Let's see what happens after we find that monster; who knows, it might be it too." Lu Li dropped the subject.
If it really is him, then Xing Tian will probably be doomed to die.
Unless he continues to cross forward.
That could also be considered "leaving this world".
"The next question is, how do we find that monster?" Lu Li asked. "Let's brainstorm together. That thing is definitely hiding in Shanghai, but we don't know where it is."
"It's not easy to find." Li Tingchan shook her head. "There are too many evils in Shanghai. I can't tell where the other person is at all. Besides, the place is full of demonic energy. No wonder it's called Shanghai."
Because the entire city of Shanghai is filled with demonic energy, it is impossible to pinpoint the other party's location using this energy.
Unless the opponent unleashes power far exceeding that of other demonic energies.
Lu Li nodded. "I think I understand. Is there any way to entice them to reveal themselves?"
"That's unlikely." Although Pan Shuai didn't understand anything about monsters, he had a general idea from what he heard. "If what that Bewitching Demon said is true, then the demon behind it all must be terrified of you, Lao Lu. Although I don't know why it's afraid of you, assuming it's true, it shouldn't be able to show its face if you're in Shanghai, right?"
"The way that Bewitching Demon died at the end was clearly because someone had placed something like a restriction or curse on it, like in novels."
"If it's something like a restriction, that's fine; it means the other party might not know I'm here," Lu Li waved his hand. "But if the other party operates it manually, that means they know I'm here."
He sighed, "Fine, I have a plan. It'll just be a little tiring for me."
Li Tingchan immediately guessed what Lu Li wanted to do. "Master, which one do you want to use?"
Xing Tian was a little confused; he didn't know which one it was.
But he didn't dare ask.
But Pan Shuai dared to.
"Old Lu, which one are you planning to use?"
"It's simple, you'll find out tonight." Lu Li stood up. "I'm planning to go out for a walk, anyone want to come?"
"I'll go with you."
"Master, I'll go too."
Li Tingchan and Fang Yuebai spoke at the same time.
The two women exchanged a glance.
Compared to the hostility in Li Tingchan's eyes, Fang Yuebai didn't react much and even smiled amicably.
"That works too." Lu Li looked at Xing Tian, Pan Shuai, and the others. "What about you guys?"
The group of people were very perceptive and said, "We'll pass."
"Alright then." Lu Li stood up. "Let's go."
Li Tingchan quickly stood up. "Master, where are we going?"
After saying that, she glanced at Fang Yuebai, who was following behind with a beaming smile.
It's clear that she's asserting her sovereignty.
"Let's go visit a museum."
Lu Li winked. "Anyway, I'm just idling around, and I have some things I want to do."
There weren't many people in the museums of that era.
Moreover, they visited a wealthy person's private museum.
The gatekeeper, seeing their attire, didn't dare to stop them.
While wandering around, Lu Li stopped in front of a stone tablet.
This is a stone tablet from the Qianlong period.
"Master, what's so interesting about this?" Li Tingchan asked, puzzled. "Didn't you say you hated braids the most?"
"That's right, that's why we chose this stone tablet." As Lu Li spoke, he activated the youth version of the dream world.
Then they left their message on that stone tablet.
[To my past self: When you see this stone tablet, I know nothing. So why leave this message? Because I want to leave you with my unhappiness as well.]
Lu Li stopped writing after only writing those two sentences.
This was information he had seen in the museum before.
Just thinking about the expression on his "past" self's face after seeing this stone tablet made Lu Li feel incredibly happy.
Li Tingchan asked curiously, "Master, what did you do?"
She couldn't see the information left on the stone tablet.
In reality, she couldn't possibly see it.
Only beings with the Eye of Color can see it.
Therefore, besides Huai Xu, the only other person in the world who can see this information is Lu Li himself.
This also avoids the risk of social death.
"It's nothing."
Seeing that Lu Li didn't want to say more, the obedient disciple who wanted to become a master naturally didn't mention it again.
She brought up another topic, "Master, are you really going to use the dream world?"
"That's for sure." Lu Li shrugged. "Anyway, I control life and death in the dream world. Tonight, I will directly kill all life within a ten-kilometer radius of the dream world."
"There are two possible outcomes: either both sides are killed. That's easier to handle. If they die, the demonic aura in this city will naturally disappear. Then we can investigate step by step."
"If its strength far exceeds that of my dream world, that's simple. We'll just locate it, Achan, and you can go and take care of it. By the way, Achan, what's your current strength?"
"I've reached the Daoist Natural Realm, only half a step away from the Void Realm. Another Ascension should be enough to break through." Li Tingchan, hands on her hips, practically had her nose grow longer. "But Master, why are you getting weaker and weaker? Back in the Zhou Dynasty, you were still at the peak of the Void Realm. But you've gotten weaker and weaker, and now you're not even at the Innate Realm anymore."
"Those are minor matters." Lu Li didn't elaborate further.
At this moment, Fang Yuebai, who had been listening quietly, asked a question, "Brother Li, I don't know what your abilities are. But I just feel... isn't killing so many people a bit much?"
Lu Li stared at her for a moment and found that her eyes were full of worry.
It's not that I'm worried about anything else, but I'm worried about Lu Li.
Lu Li thought she was probably afraid of being controlled by the power.
"Don't worry, Bai Bai. In my dream world, I can bring back to life all the people I kill. As long as my subconscious doesn't believe I killed them, or I don't believe they are dead, then they won't die."
Fang Yuebai patted the mountain on his chest, "Then I can rest assured."
stare--
Li Tingchan and Lu Li's gazes both unconsciously shifted to that spot.
Fang Yuebai blushed slightly, but she didn't say anything. Instead, she secretly straightened her chest by putting her hands behind her back.
"Hmph! Those two lumps of fat will sag sooner or later."
Li Tingchan muttered softly.
She herself was not young, but there was still a noticeable difference between her and Fang Yuebai.
But she wasn't afraid.
She is a demon who practices martial arts.
In other words, she's forever eighteen!
Being young means being forever strong!
Although I was very annoyed by Fang Yuebai, that woman would eventually grow old.
In the end, only Li Tingchan was able to stay by her master's side!
The premise is that those female monsters that appeared out of nowhere in the past should not reappear!
Fang Yuebai became a little worried again, "But can you handle it, Brother Li? I've seen that super strong abilities in anime and novels often have side effects."
"That's okay, as long as they're not significantly stronger than me, it's fine."
Lu Li smiled and comforted her, then patted Li Tingchan's head, "Besides, there's still A-Chan here."
"Hmph~~" Li Tingchan put her hands on her hips and looked smug.
She practically looked at Fang Yuebai with her nostrils.
Haha~ You're not as useful as me, are you?
Fang Yuebai felt like laughing inside.
But she didn't say anything.
Lu Li finally made the decision, "Then it's decided. Let's do it tonight. It won't be long before the entire city of Shanghai is covered. Let's try to catch that guy within two days."
"Yes, Master!"
Inside a dark temple—
A man over three meters tall with nine heads was setting up an array using human blood.
Although his hands were busy, the communication between his several heads never stopped.
Does it really work?
"I don't know. This formation was found in some ruins before I went to the island nation."
"But if we summon an ancient demon, won't we incur their wrath?"
"We're all monsters, so it shouldn't be like that, right? Besides, we can offer up the flesh of an entire world; monsters love human flesh the most."
"No, I meant that sir."
"As long as we summon that ancient demon, everything will be alright!"
"Let's begin then."
"start!"
Half an hour later, the nine-headed demon, whose demonic power had been mostly absorbed by the magic array, knelt on the ground, looking dejected, and dared not lift its head.
The demonic power emanating from the summoned being made it feel as if it could die at any moment!
"Why is this place so dark?"
A pleasant female voice rang out; although it was a complaint, her tone was very gentle.
Although his tone was gentle, the nine-headed demon trembled even more.
But the next moment, the vast and boundless demonic energy directed at it abruptly ceased.
The ancient demon twitched its nostrils, and a smile curved its lips. "Brother Lu Li."
I heard that the combined subscription model increases average subscriptions, I'll give it a try...
