Film & TV: Public Enemy of Justice

The Demon King Zhenyu unfolded his folding fan and thrust it at Lin Yaoxie. Lin Yaoxie wanted the Demon King Zhenyu to make a move, otherwise, if this guy was determined to escape, it might not be so easy to see him again.

Lin Yaoxie flicked his sleeves slightly and raised the Demon-Suppressing Sword to stab at the throat of the Prison-Suppressing King. This sword strike was extremely fast, one of the few moves in the Yilong Sword Technique that used speed to counter speed. If the Prison-Suppressing King did not dodge, this sword would be enough to pierce his throat.

Even at this moment, Lin Yaoxie felt a weight on his right shoulder, and then the Demon-Suppressing Sword seemed to pierce a rock, unable to advance even an inch.

The King of Hell's attack was slow; his folding fan struck Lin Yaoxie's right shoulder, yet Lin Yaoxie remained completely unharmed. The King of Hell sneered:

"How could earthly ironware harm a god?"

Lin Yaoxie was shocked to realize that Huan Ye's words were true; even the seemingly most vulnerable throat could not be harmed in the slightest by Lin Yaoxie's Demon-Suppressing Sword.

Lin Yaoxie then realized the difference between gods and humans in the world of Xianjian. As long as he had the opportunity to show his skills, Lin Yaoxie would probably never be able to defeat him. He immediately changed his swords three times in an attempt to find the weakness of Zhenyu Mingwang.

The Demon King of Hell exclaimed, "Oh?" and praised, "Your swordsmanship is quite good."

With the opening and closing of the folding fan, Lin Yaoxie's Demon-Suppressing Sword was completely blocked. Lin Yaoxie stared intently at the Demon-Suppressing King's attack. These three moves were neither swift nor sluggish, yet each one was blocked perfectly, without the slightest error, like a net that was wide but had no loopholes.

In that instant, with no chance of defense, Lin Yaoxie roared and turned the Demon-Suppressing Sword from slashing to sweeping, sweeping across the eyes of the Prison-Suppressing King.

The Demon King of Hell closed his folding fan and raised it to his left cheek, just enough to block the incoming sword. Lin Yaoxie's Demon-Suppressing Sword was unable to advance even an inch for a moment.

Lin Yaoxie felt a slight numbness in his arm and thought to himself: His eyes might be the key to breaking through.

As the blue light passed, something seemed to attack Lin Yaoxie's eyes, arriving at just the right time, leaving him no chance to dodge.

Lin Yaoxie, caught up in the chaos, couldn't spare a moment. He gripped the Demon-Suppressing Sword and thrust it swiftly at the eyes of the Prison-Suppressing King, a move that would result in mutual destruction.

This move was neither Lin Yaoxie's intention nor that of the Prison King. The Prison King crouched down slightly, but Lin Yaoxie's Demon-Suppressing Sword pierced the Prison King's eyebrow without causing him any harm.

However, the sword was longer than the fan, which was only a slight difference. The fan of the Prison King just touched Lin Yaoxie's eyelashes, but it was a little short.

Lin Yaoxie secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and in his shock, the Demon-Suppressing Sword transformed into a long dragon, attacking the Prison-Suppressing King like a whirlwind, each move aimed at his eyes, giving him no chance to retaliate. The Prison-Suppressing King dodged left and right, parrying and blocking, occasionally clicking his tongue in admiration:

Excellent swordsmanship, excellent swordsmanship.

Seeing that the situation was not good, Huan Ye and Tian Yao Huang, with their golden and blue figures flashing by, joined forces with Lin Yao Xie to attack Zhen Yu Ming Wang.

These three were already among the top cultivators in the Demon Locking Tower, and their attacks were incredibly fierce. However, the Demon King of Hell, holding a folding fan, always managed to keep up with the three with ease, never falling behind in the slightest.

All three knew that the weakness of the Prison King lay between his eyes, and they attacked his eyes with every move.

The Night Summoner acted swiftly, with the Heavenly Demon Emperor's five elemental magic orbs constantly shifting around him. The two's fierce attacks forced the Prison King to slow down and attack Lin Yaoxie. Lin Yaoxie immediately brandished the Demon Suppressing Sword and unleashed the Dragon-Slaying Sword Technique, fiercely attacking the Prison King's eyes.

However, the Demon King Zhenyu lived up to his reputation as a demigod. Every move he made perfectly avoided Lin Yaoxie's attacks, and Lin Yaoxie's Demon-Suppressing Sword always missed his eyes by an inch.

0oo is asking for flowers....

Suddenly, a cry of "Ah!" was heard, followed by Lin Yaoxie's "Hey!" It was as the Prison King opened his folding fan and fanned it a few times, creating a gust of wind that hit both Lin Yaoxie and the Heavenly Demon Emperor.

Although Huan Ye moved quickly and was immortal, Zhenyu Mingwang was quite clever. He only defended against Huan Ye and did not waste any energy on him.

After another few dozen rounds of fierce fighting, Huan Ye suddenly cried out "Wah!" as he was crushed under a giant boulder created by the Immortal King of Hell using the technique of Mount Tai Pressing Down. Fortunately, Lin Yaoxie's attack was in full swing and deflected a few inches, leaving half of Huan Ye's body outside the ledge, allowing him to escape on his own.

... 0

Although Lin Yaoxie and Tian Yaohuang were injured, their injuries were not fatal. Their eyes met, and Lin Yaoxie disregarded his own safety, threw out the Yilong Sword, aiming straight for the left eye of Zhenyu Mingwang, while at the same time he turned his fists into fingers and aimed straight for the right eye of Zhenyu Mingwang.

The Heavenly Demon Emperor unleashed all five elements of magic simultaneously, attacking relentlessly without leaving any room for defense, desperately holding onto the folding fan in the hands of the Prison-Suppressing King. On the other side, Huan Ye, who had just escaped, also transformed into a golden figure and joined the battle.

At this point, the Demon King Zhenyu could choose to withdraw his folding fan and kill Lin Yaoxie, or he could choose to fan the Qi Fan to kill Tian Yaohuang. However, no matter which option he chose, although he would ultimately annihilate one person, he would not be able to save his own eyes.

The King of Hell finally let out a long sigh:

He retracted his right arm and opened his folding fan to protect his eyes.

With a flick of his fan, the Demon King of Hell deflected all the attacks from the three men. Seeing how desperately they were fighting, the Demon King of Hell said:

"You still have a lot to do with these eyes. You can leave if you want."

Having said that, the Demon King of Hell closed his folding fan and strode away, disappearing into a black dot in the blink of an eye before Lin Yaoxie and the others. Before leaving, he uttered a final sentence:

"If you want to live, you'd better bring that little lion from the eighth floor with you, otherwise..."

The rest of the conversation was unclear due to the distance.

Lin Yaoxie stared at the magic array left behind by the Prison Suppressing King, unsure of its destination. However, based on what the Prison Suppressing King had said before leaving, Lin Yaoxie vaguely sensed that the magic array didn't simply send them away; it seemed to lead somewhere else.

Chapter Ninety-Nine: Styx Bamboo Shoots

The eighth floor of the Demon-Sealing Tower, the wine pool where he encountered the winged demon and the sphinx, still haunts Lin Yaoxie.

Lin Yaoxie initially suspected that this might be a scheme by the Prison King to kill someone with a borrowed knife, but after fighting with him, Lin Yaoxie felt that the Prison King was not the kind of person who would resort to trickery.

In the end, Lin Yaoxie decided to go back to the eighth floor again to see if he could persuade the Sphinx to leave with him.

For safety reasons, Xuejian and Longkui stayed at Qianqian's house, while Lin Yaoxie and Tianyaohuang went to the eighth floor to find the Sphinx.

Originally, they wanted to take Huanye with them, but when Huanye heard that they were going to find that Sphinx, he hid at Qianqian's house and refused to go no matter what. After Xuejian and Longkui gossiped about it many times, Huanye vaguely revealed that it was that Sphinx that trapped him on the seventh floor. If it weren't for Lin Yaoxie's group, he might not have stayed under that Vajra Hat Li for a long time.

"Eight Two Three"

When Lin Yaoxie and the Heavenly Demon Emperor returned to the eighth level, they didn't see the Sphinx in front of the Bagua Stone. Instead, they saw a Sphinx crouching on a bamboo raft, with a Sphinx in front of it.

Her two iron pots were still there.

The beast kept scooping water with a ladle, each time bringing back either a few winged little demons or catching a half-human snake, but each time she would throw it into the soup pot without even looking at it.

Lin Yaoxie steeled himself and waved towards the water. The Sphinx, its eyes gleaming, quickly paddled the bamboo raft toward the two of them.

The sphinx raised its spoon, and Lin Yaoxie quickly waved his hand, saying:

"Spare their lives."

The sphinx blinked, staring expectantly at Lin Yaoxie, and asked:

"I'm already tired of eating stinky snakes and rats. Do you have any last words?"

Lin Yaoxie stammered in response:

"Um... um... do you want to pay..."

Before Lin Yaoxie could finish speaking, the Sphinx scooped up the Heavenly Demon Emperor with its spoon.

The Sphinx ignored what Lin Yaoxie was saying and continued to speak to itself:

"I don't know whether this green-skinned thing is better steamed or boiled in soup."

The Heavenly Demon Emperor shouted and yelled in the spoon, but the Sphinx ignored him completely.

Lin Yaoxiedao:

"He should have made soup."

Only then did the Sphinx notice Lin Yaoxie, and it roared loudly:

"Why is it you again? I hate thinking about things."

In an instant, the Heavenly Demon Emperor was thrown out of the spoon.

Lin Yaoxiedao:

"Do you want to leave the Demon-Sealing Tower?"

Upon hearing Lin Yaoxie's words, the Sphinx suddenly stuffed the two large pots in front of it into a small bag that it had found from somewhere. It was as if some kind of magic had been used to instantly stuff the two enormous pots inside.

The sphinx leaped joyfully onto the shore, transforming into a pink-clad girl who exclaimed happily:

"Finally, we won't have to eat stinky snakes and rats anymore?"

Lin Yaoxie asked curiously:

"That's your true self?"

The girl said:

"Of course it's the same one as before, but they don't seem to like me looking like that, and I don't want to get dragged back in."

It turns out that the human sphinx was captured and imprisoned in the Demon Locking Tower because it wanted to conserve its magical power by walking in its original form in the human world.

Along the way, Lin Yaoxie learned that the sphinx was named Xiaoru, and that she claimed to be the God of Fate in the Underworld, but then said she wasn't, leaving Lin Yaoxie somewhat confused.

Lin Yaoxie led Xiaoru and the others to Qianqian's house. Xiaoru immediately saw Huanye and said unhappily:

"Is that rotten bird that can't be steamed or boiled coming with us too?"

The demon Lin Yaoxie was indeed powerful; he had actually managed to persuade Xiaoru to leave with them. Secretly, I gave Lin Yaoxie a thumbs up.

"I'll escort everyone out. I don't know how long that magic circle can last."

Lin Yaoxie asked curiously:

Aren't you leaving?

Night Call:

"Now that all the levels of the Demon-Sealing Tower have been reopened, I'd better continue building my ideal kingdom. Otherwise, I wouldn't have come here willingly. You know how difficult it is to be captured by those Taoist priests with weak magic."

Lin Yaoxie was about to say something more when he heard Qianqian say:

"Brother, I think it's better for you to go out. I and this scoundrel will take care of things here. You should go out and call some more like-minded brothers over."

The Heavenly Demon Emperor shook his head repeatedly upon hearing this:

"No, no, I finally get to get out of here, I don't want to stay here even if you kill me."

Although Lin Yaoxie had only been in contact with Huan Ye and the Heavenly Demon Emperor for a short time, he knew that it might be better for Huan Ye to go out than for the Heavenly Demon Emperor to go out, at least Huan Ye was more controllable to Lin Yaoxie.

Lin Yaoxie originally planned to lead everyone out of the Demon-Locking Tower, but Qianqian insisted on staying, and Huanye also said that someone needed to stay behind to manage the newly established order within the Demon-Locking Tower…

Lin Yaoxie pondered for a moment, then pulled Huan Ye aside and said a few words. Huan Ye suddenly exclaimed joyfully:

"I'll go with you guys, you stay here, you green-skinned brat."

Huan Ye spoke quickly and acted even faster. Before the Heavenly Demon Emperor could react, he pulled Lin Yaoxie and the others into the magic array.

A flash of light appeared before Lin Yaoxie's eyes, and the scene before him changed in the blink of an eye.

The magic array teleported them to an extremely dark place, where only a few lights could be seen flickering in the distance, and a black river blocked their path.

Xuejian said:

"What kind of hellhole is this?"

Longkui said:

"How...how did we end up in the underworld?"

Lin Yaoxie surveyed the dark riverbed ahead:
