Chapter Sixty-Five: "The Artificial Demon Emperor"
Shi Kuan's defeat surprised everyone present, because Shi Kuan's title of Northern Mountain Demon Emperor was not something he boasted about, but something he earned with every punch he threw!
Now, Li Muchen had defeated Shi Kuan, one of the Four Emperors, with just a single punch, leaving everyone who witnessed it speechless. (Biqushu.net)
Inside the stone figure, Li Muchen carefully examined the diamond-shaped object in her hand. Holding it in her palm, Li Muchen immediately felt a peculiar energy in this world that she could not usually sense, but now she could clearly perceive and use it.
"Is this the power of the Heart of the Northern Mountain? This feels amazing!"
At this moment, a massive sword aura that seemed to cleave through the heavens and earth suddenly slashed from afar, severing the right arm of the stone man who had devoured Shi Kuan with a single strike.
"This is the Heaven and Earth Sword? It's Young Master!!!" Butler Fei exclaimed excitedly.
Under the rising sun, a group of people wearing various masks slowly flew in—the long-absent members of the Masked Troupe! (Background music should be playing here!!!)
"And Tan'er and the others!!!" The old master of the Yang family also recognized Yang Yitan.
"Brother, isn't the replica I made pretty good? This is nothing like the replica from over ten years ago that could only be used once. After so many years of improvements, as long as you don't use the Heaven and Earth Sword at full power, it's basically the same as your King's Sword in normal combat." Li Quzhuo said proudly from behind.
"Stop grinning like that, and think about how to deal with your little sister!" Li Zizai complained.
The moment Li Muchen was mentioned, Li Quzhuo's smug face beneath his mask crumbled. For so many years, the two brothers had been afraid to face Li Muchen because of Zhuge Kongming, so even if they knew some things about Li Muchen, they chose to turn a blind eye.
The reason they haven't acted for so long is because of this, but now the situation has exceeded their expectations, so Wangquan Baye has no choice but to take action.
"Go quickly and save your Heavenly Lord!" Tu Shan Hong Hong caught the arm that Wang Quan Baye had cut off and threw it at the monsters.
Oh, right, Chicken Master and the others were also released by Li Muchen, because Li Muchen no longer needs Chicken Master and the others to absorb magic power.
Seeing the monsters frantically hammering at the stones, Tu Shan Honghong stopped caring about Shi Kuan's life or death. After all, she had already done more than enough by helping Shi Kuan.
The masked group scattered and surrounded Li Muchen, but didn't rush to attack. Li Zizai stepped forward and said, "Little sister, you've really gone viral this time!!"
Upon hearing Li Zizai's words, Li Muchen burst into laughter, but her unrestrained laughter seemed to carry a hint of desolation.
"You've finally decided to come out and see me! Have you all forgotten how you all came back from outside the circle? If it weren't for Brother Kongming sacrificing himself, how could you possibly be standing in front of me now?"
"Those outside the circle killed Brother Kongming. You who returned aren't thinking about how to avenge him and fight your way back out of the circle, but instead you're all obsessed with the power of the Dao Alliance, scheming and plotting within the circle. How can you face Brother Kongming?!"
As Li Muchen finished speaking, she almost shouted it out, and tears were faintly visible in her eyes.
Everyone fell silent. Li Quzhuo stepped forward, wanting to say something, but was stopped by Li Zizai. In the end, he could only let out a long sigh.
Seeing that the masked group remained silent, Li Muchen didn't seem to mind. He composed himself and continued, "Since you're unwilling to face what's outside the circle, then I will! See this? This is the creature from outside the circle that you've been avoiding at all costs. I've perfectly controlled it, and now it possesses the power of a demon emperor. What you fear is now under my control!!!"
Wang Quan Ba Ye gripped the replica Wang Quan Sword tightly, raised his right hand high, and said nothing more.
Honestly, have they really done nothing all these years? Impossible!
The scene of helplessness outside the circle back then has haunted the minds of every member of the Masked Group for years, becoming their nightmare. They are always awakened in the middle of the night by this scene.
Although they had always wanted to go back and see if Zhuge Liang was still alive, they knew that their last lucky return was entirely due to Zhuge Liang. They were still too weak; if they went out, they would just be easy prey for him.
So over the years they have been working hard to improve their strength and gradually control the Dao Alliance to limit the internal strife between humans and demons. All of this is for the day when they can return to the outside world. However, Li Muchen, who is immersed in losing Kongming, cannot see this.
From a purely human perspective, the Dao Alliance would be happy to have humans control the Heart of the Northern Mountain. Previously, the Dao Alliance had only refrained from targeting it because only one demon king could wield the power of heaven and earth, and for the sake of peaceful coexistence between humans and demons.
However, the source of Li Muchen's control over this power is something outside the circle, which is something that neither the Dao Alliance nor the Demon Alliance can tolerate. This has crossed their bottom line, which is why so many high-ranking members of the Dao Alliance and the Demon Alliance have come to Mutian City today.
A flash of red light appeared, and Tu Shan Honghong flew to Li Muchen's side. As a member of the Demon Alliance, she had a responsibility to help Shi Kuan protect Beishan and help him reclaim the Heart of Beishan.
Unlike Wang Quanba and the others who had many concerns, Tu Shan Honghong's eyes turned red, her fists clenched, and she kicked out at Li Muchen.
Li Muchen was startled to see Tu Shan Honghong rapidly approaching. He then manipulated the stone golem to open its blood-red maw and spew out a large energy wave at Tu Shan Honghong.
Tu Shan Honghong didn't dodge. She put her right fist in front of her and threw it at the energy wave. The bug-like insulating claw directly dispersed the energy wave. Then, her fist continued its momentum and slammed into the stone man's mouth!
The King of Tushan truly lives up to his name!
"It's a pity that the strength of the four demon emperors is not evenly matched." Cui Yuling explained with a hint of pride as she looked at Tu Shan Honghong's heroic performance.
"Boom boom boom!" Under Tu Shan Hong Hong's powerful force, Li Muchen was forced to take three steps back, each step of his huge body accompanied by a deafening sound.
However, although Tu Shan Hong Hong is very strong, how could Li Muchen, who made so many plans for today, only have this much ability? This would not be in line with the strength of the artificial Four Emperors she painstakingly created.
Sure enough, in the short time it took for the stone man to retreat, many small stone figures fell from his body and surrounded him. With a ripple in the ground, countless stones flew towards the stone man, and in the blink of an eye, the stone man was back to its best condition!
"Brother Taoist priest, is this the memory from back then?"
Chapter Sixty-Six: "The Masked Gang's Battle"
Two small, thin figures suddenly barged into the stone man's spiritual world. They were Bai Yuechu and Tu Shan Susu, who had just been kicked out by the Third Young Master of Aolai Kingdom. It was unclear how they had managed to re-enter.
"Hey, you little idiot, doesn't that thing in that guy's hand look a bit like Shi Kuan's...?"
Bai Yuechu realized as soon as he entered that Li Muchen had taken Shi Kuan's Heart of Beishan.
At this moment, many people suddenly appeared in Li Muchen's soul world, and the originally extremely quiet place suddenly became lively.
"The Dao Alliance's Soul Astral Projection Technique? Are you really so comfortable leaving the outside world to those monsters, my dear brothers and sisters?" Li Muchen looked at the people in front of him and couldn't help but sneer.
Those who entered were the Masked Group and others who used the technique of astral projection.
"Li Muchen, this is your last warning. Stop now, or don't blame us for being impolite!" Li Quzhuo warned.
Li Muchen ignored his words and waved his hand, causing countless earthworms of the Yellow Spring Clan to surge out and rush towards the masked group.
"Sigh... there's no other way, brother, let's use force." Seeing that Li Muchen still wouldn't listen, Li Quzhuo sighed helplessly.
Wang Quan Baye, who was standing with his hands behind his back, nodded slowly after hearing this. He raised his right hand high and made a sword gesture with his left hand, then used the Wang Quan Sword Technique to slash at the Yellow Spring Clan.
"Shhhhh!"
As the sound of clean, sharp flesh being cleaved rang out, the fastest-moving members of the Yellow Spring Clan were already cut into several pieces.
Seeing their eldest brother make a move, the other members of the Masked Gang were not to be outdone. Wang Quanzui shouted in dissatisfaction, "Brother, why don't you hold back a bit? We finally get to come out, you should at least let me show off my skills once."
As he spoke, Wang Quanzui picked up his sword and swung it forward. A large bubble emanated from the sword, and all the Huangquan clan members touched by the bubble immediately fell into a deep sleep.
Wang Quan Zui, codenamed Dream Swordswoman, is the younger sister of Wang Quan Ba Ye. She could hypnotize at the age of three and manipulate objects at the age of six. She has an extraordinary talent for mental magic, and through years of hard work, her research on the soul has become incredibly advanced.
Countless flying knives swept past, and the Huangquan clan, who had just been controlled by Wang Quanzui, were instantly torn apart by five horses.
Li Zizai, codenamed Wuding Daojun, is the eldest son of the Li family of Taoyuan. His agility is unparalleled. He nourishes his chaotic energy with a naturally occurring spiritual treasure, the Chaos Purple-Gold Gourd, from which a Wuding Flying Knife is born, capable of countless transformations and endless uses. He can take a person's head from a thousand miles away as easily as taking something from a bag. He is currently the head of the Li family of Taoyuan.
"boom!!!"
One after another, streaks of materialized purple lightning struck down, turning all the Yellow Spring Clan members into charred remains wherever they went. In an instant, many vacuum zones appeared among the densely packed Yellow Spring Clan members.
Yang Yitan, codenamed Three-Senses Divine Lord, comes from the famous Heavenly Eye Yang family and is Mu Mie's cousin. He is born with divine eyes that can perceive the flow of an enemy's energy, allowing him to anticipate their moves before they even begin. Moreover, he is exceptionally gifted, having mastered the strengths of several schools of thought solely through observation.
This person is extremely skilled at making shrimp and pork heart. His favorite thing is to see through the enemy's spell operation and then use the enemy's spell to defeat them. He is currently the head of the Yang family of the Heavenly Eye Sect and the deputy leader of the Dao Alliance.
There are also the masked group members who have grown up, such as Zhang Zheng, the head of the Zhang family, Ji Wuji, the head of the Ji family, and Mu Shenqi, the head of the Mu family. They are no longer the naive and ignorant newcomers they once were.
Time has not only matured their appearance, but also transformed their hearts. At this moment, the masked group is truly heroes of the human race!
However, although the Masked Gang is now unparalleled in combat power, they are unable to deal with these fearless members of the Yellow Springs Clan for the time being, because there are simply too many of them to kill in a short period of time.
After watching his brothers fight for a while, Li Quzhuo frowned, grabbed Wang Quanzui who was about to rush forward, and asked her, "Little sister, can you figure out why Li Muchen's soul strength is able to control such powerful forces?"
Wang Quanzui frowned and said doubtfully, "With her soul strength, it's impossible for her to control the power of a Yonko, unless..."
"Unless what?"
"Ah, I know, it's one body with multiple souls!!!" Wang Quanzui shouted excitedly.
"One body, multiple souls, is that so..." Li Quzhuo murmured.
At that moment, Li Quzhuo understood many things.
"Brother, help me!!" Li Quzhuo shouted to Wang Quanba Ye after he had figured everything out.
Wang Quanba nodded. Years of tacit understanding allowed him to instantly comprehend the meaning, and he suddenly slashed at Li Muchen with the move "Heaven and Earth Sword".
Li Muchen quickly twisted his body to barely dodge the sword, but this was exactly what Li Quzhuo wanted, because he wanted this momentary opening.
"Crimson Lotus Soul-Shattering Curse!!!"
Taking advantage of the moment when Li Muchen's old power was not exhausted and his new power had not yet been generated, Li Quzhuo unleashed a Red Lotus Soul-Shaking Curse at Li Muchen, who had no time to dodge.
Helpless, Li Muchen could only watch as he was struck. The next moment, two souls were blasted out of Li Muchen's body, one belonging to Xiao Tianhao and the other to Venerable Beishan.
"We succeeded!!" Li Quzhuo laughed.
A cold smile crept across Li Muchen's lips. Countless purple threads emanated from his body, instantly pulling those souls back into his own!
Bai Yuechu, who had been watching with great interest and was practically bursting for a bucket of popcorn, suddenly exclaimed, "That's... the power of the Southern Love Poison?!"
He was all too familiar with this thing. Last time, he had turned into a weak, pitiful, and helpless chicken because of it, and was ridiculed by his father and Wang Fugui for his petty triumph.
Bai Yuechu's voice also caught Li Quzhuo's attention. He turned to look at Bai Yuechu and asked in confusion, "Southern Love Gu?"
Bai Yuechu knew he could no longer be a spectator, so he picked up the Dream Hammer and shared the information he knew about the Southern Love Gu with Li Quzhuo, and also exchanged information about Li Muchen.
After learning about the Southern Love Poison, Li Quzhuo's gaze towards Li Muchen became complicated.
"Little sister, why are you doing this to yourself?"
Bai Yuechu tried to sever Li Muchen's love curse thread based on his understanding of love power, but he was surprised to find that even with his deep understanding, he could not shake the thread of love in the slightest. It was as if an ordinary person wanted to break a steel bar with their bare hands.
"What's going on?" Bai Yuechu was speechless.
Based on the information he had just shared about Li Muchen, he was certain that Li Muchen had no feelings for that Xiao Tianhao at all. Therefore, the love potion's power could not possibly be as indestructible as it was now, and it would be easily broken by him, a "professional".
“The object of my little sister’s love potion should be my second brother…” Li Quzhuo sighed.
Li Quzhuo's memories of Zhuge Liang are arguably his most important memories, so naturally they wouldn't be easily read by Bai Yuechu, which is why Bai Yuechu made the wrong judgment.
Chapter Sixty-Seven: "True Spirit-Breaking Slash"
"Second Brother?" Bai Yuechu blinked.
Li Quzhuo was unwilling to say anything more, but now he understood that his Crimson Lotus Soul-Shaking Curse was completely ineffective against Li Muchen.
"Why bother? Second brother, you should know that he's the one who pulled me out of my world, taught me formations, taught me strategies. Even if he only sees me as a sister, I still like him, I still love him, and I will never regret it in this life!!!"
As he said this, a tear appeared on Li Muchen's face.
"I know my power is insufficient, and even if I go outside the circle, I will not be able to find him. That's why I have planned for so long just to obtain the power of the Four Emperors so that I can see him once, even if it's just to see his corpse. I would be satisfied."
"Little sister, sigh."
…………
"bass!!"
As the sword light flashed, another large group of Huangquan Clan members were slaughtered. Wang Quanba retracted the replica Wang Quan Sword from his hand and flashed to Li Quzhuo's side.
