My path to immortality was smooth sailing.

Chapter 41 The Tragedy of the Chu Family

Chuyuan Town is the settlement of the ordinary members of the Chu family.

At this point, they were not spared either.

Dense demonic energy enveloped the surrounding area, and ordinary people fell one by one, their flesh and essence devoured, leaving them as withered corpses.

"Heh heh! The Chu family is so kind, we Blood Shadow Sect will accept this favor. Once we've eaten and drunk our fill, we'll storm Jade Stack Peak for you and slaughter the Jiangzuo Wei family."

"My Blood Shadow Sect has always valued its promises, and my Blood Infant Sect is even more so. You can rest assured!"

An old demon with a withered face and a body as shriveled as a dried corpse cackled loudly.

Standing to the side is Chu Hansheng, the current patriarch of the Chu family.

He turned his head away, but the screams and cries of his people still assaulted his eardrums, making him feel as if he were being gnawed by a thousand insects, and his body trembled uncontrollably.

At that moment, he regretted it.

He regretted making a deal with these demons. He had thought he was using one enemy to devour another, taking advantage of the turmoil in Wushan and the fact that the Qingfu Sect was too preoccupied to care about anything else, to slaughter the Wei family.

The Chu family played a protective role in this, acting as collaborators.

Little did we know, this was tantamount to inviting a wolf into the house!

These beasts from the demonic sect are utterly immoral; they actually demanded that he offer up half of the Chu family's mortal population as their sustenance.

"Heh heh! Don't worry, Brother Hansheng, the men I've chosen are all older men; I haven't touched a single youth or child like you."

"You're not angry, are you?"

A wisp of black smoke descended and transformed into a sickly middle-aged man. He patted Chu Hansheng on the shoulder as if he were an old friend.

"Hmph!" Chu Hansheng flicked his sleeves, his face displeased, and immediately flew away into the distance. In no time, his figure completely disappeared from the sight of the two Foundation Establishment demons.

"Cough cough, the Chu family is too ungrateful. We might as well just slaughter them all." The blood infant's body was shriveled, and its voice was like a leaky bellows.

The sickly-looking Xue Hai shook his head and said, "It's been so many years. Finally, a cultivation family from Wushan is willing to form an alliance with us. We'll keep them around for our ancestor's future use. This time, we'll start by targeting the Wei family of Jiangzuo."

"Let's see how the Qingfu Sect reacts."

"Alright."

The Blood Infant pondered for a moment, then slowly nodded.

In Chuyuan Town, demonic energy is dense, and blood falls like rain. Mortal lives are harvested as easily as weeds.

The demonic energy gradually faded by evening, but the lingering stench and the malevolent aura of the corpses throughout the town did not dissipate so easily.

……

"What? How many of you have come?" Wei Long was shocked.

He gripped the one-eyed demonic cultivator's neck with one hand, his fingers tightening, causing the cultivator to gurgle in his throat.

"Ha ha!"

"You're all dead."

"Three Foundation Establishment elders have come to our Blood Shadow Sect. Among them, Elder Blood Infant and Elder Blood Sea are both at the Great Perfection of Foundation Establishment. Although Elder Crimson Blood has just broken through to Foundation Establishment, he is exceptionally talented and is the most talented person in our sect in the past fifty years. His combat strength is comparable to that of the mid-Foundation Establishment stage."

"You're just waiting to die!"

"At this moment, Jade Stack Peak may already be a river of blood."

"Hehehe!"

Wei Jing's face was calm as water. He struck the one-eyed demon cultivator's head with his palm, and blood gushed out.

This wicked one-eyed demonic cultivator was sent to the Western Paradise in an instant.

"Wei Jing, what should we do?" Wei Jun asked anxiously. He originally thought that only the situation in Liushi Town was critical, but he did not expect that the Demonic Sect would be so bold as to send three Foundation Establishment cultivators to directly attack Yudie Peak.

"How dare they?" Wei Long asked anxiously.

With three Foundation Establishment level demonic cultivators joining forces, even the clan leader probably won't be able to hold out for long.

"The Blood Shadow Sect has caused such a commotion this time, the Azure Talisman Sect must have already noticed. I just hope..." Wei Jing shook his head.

"I just hope the clan leader can hold out until reinforcements from the Azure Talisman Sect arrive!"

As for the rest, the three of them were powerless to help, after all, Wei Jing, who had the highest cultivation level among them, was only at the seventh level of Qi Refining.

Upon hearing this, both Wei Yun and Wei Long remained silent.

"Let's go! Let's go out and slay the demons."

"We can't be of much help on Jade Stack Peak, but we must eliminate all the demons in Willow Stone Town."

After saying that, Wei Jing turned and left.

"Jing'er!"

Wei Jing turned around, and Wei Musheng and the other two were all staring at him expectantly.

"Father, Mother, Little Sister, you two stay here for a while. I'll be right back," Wei Jing replied softly, then turned and walked towards the door.

"Jing'er, please be very careful."

Wei Jing didn't turn around, but he gripped the Broken Army Blade in his hand even tighter.

Behind them, Wei Yun and Wei Long followed closely.

"You demonic beast, you deserve to die!" Wei Long cursed, his spiritual power surging, and flames appeared all around him.

Wei Jing thought for a moment and tossed the Broken Army Blade to him.

Wei Long is such a reckless person; without the protection of a spiritual weapon, he would probably be devoured by demonic cultivators.

"Boom! Boom! Boom!"

Wei Jing made hand seals, and fireballs were launched from his hands. He leaped between rooftops, supported by a gentle breeze, making him as light as a swallow.

"Take this!" Wei Jing pointed with one hand, and a gust of wind immediately surged in front of him, dispersing the demonic energy and revealing several figures.

The next moment, Wei Jing arrived with a whoosh, sending these mid-stage Qi Refining demonic cultivators flying with a single palm strike.

"Brother Jing, it's Brother Jing here."

When the Wei family cultivators saw Wei Jing displaying his great power, they cheered and shouted.

Wei Jing moved swiftly, each palm strike taking the life of a demonic cultivator. Wherever he went, fireballs exploded, tearing through the black mist.

These demonic cultivators were of average strength. Wei Jing killed his way through them without seeing a single one who had reached the late stage of Qi Refining.

Wei Jing became so engrossed in the fight that none of these demonic cultivators could withstand a single blow from him.

It's possible that the Demonic Sect misjudged the situation, thinking that a small mortal town wouldn't attract any powerful cultivators, so the truly powerful demonic cultivators all went to besiege Jade Butterfly Peak.

However, they did not expect that the Wei family had already strengthened the defenses of Liushi Town, and even sent two family elders at the ninth level of Qi Refining and more than twenty family cultivators to guard the place.

"Jing'er, come quickly and help us!" Elder Honggu shouted.

Wei Jing looked in the direction of the sound and saw that in the black mist, the Seventh Elder Wei Dao and Elder Hong Gu were fighting against a demonic cultivator who had reached the Great Perfection of Qi Refining.

Even though the two joined forces, they were at a disadvantage. Elder Hong Gu was even caught off guard and was sent flying more than ten meters away by a single palm strike.

"Perfected Qi Refining?" Wei Jing murmured, and the next moment he charged towards the demon.

"Heh heh, young brat, you dare to face this old man with only the seventh level of Qi Refining?" A cold voice came from within the black mist.

Black mist surged and billowed, enveloping the streets and alleys of Liushi Town with malevolent energy.

Wei Jing used his Gentle Breeze Technique to create a strong wind that dispersed the black mist.

Within the black mist, the demon's figure gradually became clear.

The demonic cultivator at the Great Perfection of Qi Refining was hunched over, his body covered in a thick black miasma, his fangs exposed, and his eyes gleaming with a bloodthirsty light.

With a low shout, Wei Jing activated the Yi Wood and Gen Earth Technique at full power, and blue and yellow spiritual light swirled around his body. The next moment, he flicked away more than a dozen fireballs with both hands.

"Jing'er, be careful not to inhale too much demonic energy, it's poisonous," Wei Dao warned, then took the lead and flew out to fight the demonic cultivator again.

"Jing'er, just cover for him and don't be impulsive," Elder Hong Gu reminded her. Then she sat cross-legged on the ground and circulated her internal energy to heal her injuries, with black energy constantly emerging from the top of her head.

It was clear that Elder Hong Gu was not only seriously injured, but her body was also tainted by demonic energy.
