Chapter 235 Hurtful Words
"This is impossible. What about the sacrifices made by the Lei family?" Even with Master Qingyi's words, Lei Xing still found it hard to believe.
"What's that? I've given you four families so many benefits and allowed you to enjoy so many years of good fortune. Now it's time for you to repay me."
The demon seemed quite pleased to see Lei Xing on the verge of collapse and in agony.
What did he do wrong?
The ancestors of these four families took his things and enjoyed the benefits for so many years; now he's just collecting some interest.
"I see you have good potential. If you are willing to kneel down and submit to me, I am willing to take you as my subordinate."
"After all, I've been here for over a thousand years. The outside world has probably undergone tremendous changes, and I need people to do things for me."
The demon wants to learn more about the world before taking any action.
He was too high-profile back then, and he killed people without knowing how to hide his whereabouts. He was hunted down by those people before he had fully developed.
This transformation technique is miraculous, but it can only be used once, and surviving is purely by chance.
"You're dreaming. You've ruined me like this, and you still expect me to flatter you? Go to hell."
Lei Xing refused to be humiliated and charged directly at the demon. Qingyi Daoist also joined in, determined to avenge his junior brother.
Seeing that the two were so ungrateful, the demon's face turned ruthless, and he no longer held back.
"Since you all want to die, then become my nourishment."
Having absorbed your heart's blood, my strength should be restored considerably, hahahaha.
The demon had been hiding its strength, and having just devoured Master Xuan Ning's heart blood, its power has greatly increased.
Lei Xing and Qingyi Daoist quickly found themselves at a disadvantage.
Just as he flashed behind Qingyi Daoist, intending to deliver another Black Tiger Heart-Piercing Strike.
His outstretched arm was grabbed, leaving him unable to move forward or backward.
The demon looked at the person controlling his arm in astonishment, knowing that his strength had not yet recovered to its peak.
Killing an ordinary Grandmaster martial artist wouldn't be difficult, but when this person grabbed his arm, he couldn't shake it off at all.
What does this prove? It proves, of course, that this person's strength is no less than his.
It was Tian Daqiang who took action.
Tian Zhenzhen originally thought there was something good down there, but after hearing the demon's self-destruction, she felt like she had been tricked.
She directly instructed Tian Daqiang to take action, and she and Kong Wei also stepped down from the altar.
"Who are you?" This was the first time the demon had shown such wariness since his resurrection, clearly indicating his great fear of Tian Daqiang.
"Who is he? Of course, he's the one who wants to kill you. How dare you play tricks on me? I bet you've been lying here for a thousand years, so there's no need for you to wake up."
As soon as Tian Zhenzhen finished speaking, Tian Daqiang made his move.
The Taoist priest Qingyi, who had just been rescued, said with some worry:
"Young friend, I'm here to help you. Be careful, this demon... is the demon dead?"
When Master Qingyi saw that Tian Daqiang looked very young, he treated him as a junior.
Before he could finish speaking, he saw the once arrogant demon be smashed into a bloody mist by Tian Daqiang's palm strike, leaving nothing behind and completely dissipating into the air.
What kind of power is this, possessing such terrifying strength?
The demon disappeared so quickly that it gave him a sense of unreality.
His gaze shifted to the corpse of Daoist Xuan Ning. If only this person had acted sooner, his junior brother might not have died.
The thought only flashed through Master Qingyi's mind for a moment before he dismissed it.
How could he attribute his junior brother's death to someone else? His junior brother died because of his greed. Knowing there might be danger down there, he still brought his junior brother down for profit.
Then there's the human demon.
This person not only saved his life, but also avenged his junior brother.
He should thank him.
Just as Daoist Qingyi was about to express his gratitude, Lei Xing, standing to the side, said with great dissatisfaction:
"Who are you? If you have the ability to kill a demon, why didn't you make a move before?"
Seeing the enormous price we paid, how are you going to compensate us for all those lives lost?
"Why did you kill him? Do you know he lived for a thousand years? If we could find a way to achieve immortality from him, we could all reap huge benefits. Now you've ruined everything."
Lan Lingyang quickly regained his senses after the death of the demon.
She searched around but found nothing left behind by the demon.
Listening to her questioning remarks, one has to wonder if she's even fully conscious.
However, many people shared her thoughts, after all, they had gained nothing from this trip to the secret realm and so many people had died.
It's unclear whether it was because Tian Daqiang directly killed the demon, or because he clearly had the strength but hadn't made a move before.
"Do you know how much we paid for this trip to the secret realm? Why did you kill him outright?"
You must compensate us for our losses, or you won't be leaving here today.
Le Tianlu also spoke up.
He suffered heavy losses this time, but if he can obtain the secret to immortality, then the trip will not have been in vain.
But nothing was left at the altar, and the person was dead. They hadn't gained anything from this trip to the secret realm, so of course he was unwilling to accept it.
They wanted to get something from Tian Daqiang.
"Gentlemen, this young friend just saved us. We should be thanking him for saving our lives, not being so aggressive."
Master Qingyi couldn't stand it anymore. This young friend had just saved them; how could they speak like that?
"Master Qingyi, you actually spoke up for him! He clearly has such great strength, yet you stood by and watched him die."
"If he had acted sooner, your junior brother wouldn't have died at the hands of the demon."
"Yes, it's all his fault. If he hadn't refused to act sooner, your junior brother wouldn't have died."
Tian Zhenzhen found these words amusing. They had just said that the demon could not be killed, and now they were saying that they were too late.
They said whatever they wanted, and their act of saving people became a mistake.
Fortunately, Tian Zhenzhen didn't really want to save them; she was just annoyed that she had been wasted so much time and had been played.
These people really think that way. They don't really believe she was kindly helping them out, or that she's someone who can listen to their slander and still have the ability to do things her way.
"Enough. My junior brother's death has nothing to do with anyone else. If it weren't for this young friend's intervention, I probably wouldn't even have had the chance to collect his body."
The appearance of the Taoist priest Qingyi is the same as that of Laozi in the TV series.
He had white hair and a white beard, but instead of a whisk, he held a sharp sword.
The scars on his body made him feel less ethereal, and he was also filled with anger because of these people's rudeness.
