Chapter 2081: Chapter 2079: Killing the Body, Destroying the Spirit

"Is it them?"

"They’re actually still alive." The voice of the Vermilion Bird echoed once more in Li Feng’s mind.

"You know them?"

Li Feng asked.

The Vermilion Bird hummed: "I heard that peach blossom demon mention a few names earlier, and I felt a familiarity, so I recalled carefully and remembered some things."

"Oh?"

"That white-robed scholar comes from the First Rank Zhuge Family and is the youngest great scholar of Ru Mountain in Ancestor Dragon City. Because he always likes to wear white, he’s called White Robed Zhuge."

Li Feng looked at the white-robed scholar who was inquiring. The person held a feather fan with the elegance of someone from great Ru Mountain.

"Ancestor Dragon City is temporarily safe, but now the Demon Clan has risen again, gathering a million demons to siege the four gates surrounding Ancestor Dragon City. A great battle is imminent."

Li Feng still gave some face to the other party and informed them of the situation outside.

However, Li Feng was a bit puzzled. If the other party was the puppet of the peach blossom demon king, why would they care for Ancestor Dragon City’s safety? But if they weren’t, the peach blossom demon king wouldn’t have made such a blunder.

His gaze swept over the White Robed Zhuge, and even when their eyes met, there were no signs of control. What is going on?

Could it be betrayal?

"Oh, how long has it been since the last great battle?"

White Robed Zhuge asked again.

"It’s been about two hundred years."

"Two hundred years, it feels like yesterday. But after a sleep, over two hundred years have passed."

White Robed Zhuge sighed, and then seemed to see a bit of Li Feng’s puzzlement: "You must be very puzzled now."

"I am a bit puzzled, seeing a few seniors seemingly not controlled by the peach blossom demon king, but it also seems like you follow his commands. Could it be that you seniors have betrayed the Ancestor Dragon and joined Qingqiu?"

"Hmph, we haven’t betrayed anyone. Watch your mouth, boy. We fought to sacrifice for Ancestor Dragon before you were even born!"

The one speaking was a rough-looking man beside White Robed Zhuge, exuding an unruly wildness. His battered leather armor was stained with dark red, clearly blood.

His face had some stubble, a square face revealing the ruggedness of a Northwest man, holding a battle blade on his shoulder, it was none other than the Blood Drinking Blade Mad Yang Feixue.

"This is the Secret Realm of the Qingqiu Peach Blossom Demon King, and you were summoned by the peach blossom demon king. It’s hard not to think so."

Li Feng said.

"Hmm, you don’t need to know that."

"Stop with the nonsense. Peach Blossom Demon, you summoned us out. Do you want us to fight each other and take out this boy?"

The Peach Blossom Demon King Yanran smiled and looked at the unruly Yang Feixue, not at all annoyed: "Blood Drinking Mad Blade is indeed straightforward, I won’t beat around the bush."

"Kill the person in front of you, and I’ll let you go."

"Hmm, you let us go if we kill this boy? Does that include all of us with our subordinates, or just a few of us, or just the one who kills him?"

The Peach Blossom Demon King looked at the questioning Yang Feixue and smiled faintly: "Of course, all of you."

"All of us?"

This made Yang Feixue a bit surprised: "Hmm, you intend to let us all go at once? Are you really that kind? Could you have set another trap?"

"You’ve spent too much time with those cunning foxes from Qingqiu, getting as sly as them."

"Peach Blossom Demon, over two hundred years have passed, you should know our decision. It is impossible for us to surrender, no matter how many years we’re imprisoned here, we will not bow."

Luo Huan came back to his senses, his tough face with an unquestionable tone looking at the peach blossom demon.

The Peach Blossom Demoness gave a shallow smile.

"You are all brilliant people, I don’t want to deceive you, keeping you here for over two hundred years is indeed to bring you to my side, and for that, I even used Vitality to maintain your lives. Otherwise, with all these years, you would already be either a pile of bones or frail old men."

"Today, I’ll speak frankly. As long as you help me get rid of the person in front of you, I’ll let all of you go. I, the Peach Blossom Demoness, will keep my word."

"Kill the boy in front of us, huh, what’s so special about him that makes you bring us out?"

"Moreover, this boy is evidently a talent of our Ancestor Dragon City. Helping you kill him, isn’t that wishful thinking."

"We didn’t bow back then; do you think we’d bow now?"

The Peach Blossom Demoness listened to the scolding of several people but then felt a bit ashamed and angry. Then, with a wave of her hand, numerous tree roots extended from the ground, and hanging from these roots were people wrapped like mummies.

A rough count revealed there were no less than a thousand.

The Peach Blossom Demoness sneered coldly: "If you refuse my terms, then don’t blame me for being impolite. You lived in my Secret Realm for two hundred years, do you really think I can’t kill you?"

"That was merely Qingqiu sparing your talents, allowing you to live until today. If you have no value to me, then you have no meaning to continue existing."

"Then stay and become flower fertilizer."

Having said so, ten roots quickly twisted around, like pythons strangling, instantly squeezing out the people within, with blood splattering.

The Peach Blossom Demoness was ruthless. Ten weren’t enough, so she continued.

"Stop!"

"Hmm, is this another illusion you’ve set?"

"Illusion?"

"Haha, if you think so, then consider it an illusion."

The Peach Blossom Demoness chuckled coldly, even releasing the mouths and noses of those bound.

"Camp Master, Think Tank."

"Big brother, don’t worry about us. Our deaths are not worth lamenting. Don’t believe this peach blossom demon, kill her."

"Camp Master, kill her."

Countless voices suddenly echoed, Li Feng watched this scene, his brows furrowing, this was truly a slaughter of the heart.

Yet, it was uncertain whether this was an illusion or reality.

"It’s real, those are living people. It seems this is a force trapped by the Qingqiu Fox Clan. The Qingqiu Fox Clan wants to subdue this force, but didn’t expect they would hold out for years without surrendering."

The Vermilion Bird can naturally see through reality and illusion.

"Zhuge Xuanji, others can’t see through the illusion, but you should be able to. Though you can’t break this Mysterious Formation, that is not your fault, but watching your subordinates die miserably today, how can your conscience bear it."

"Back then, if not for you, this force of thousands wouldn’t face its current fate. Now only this thousand or eight hundred remain. Will you really watch everyone die?"

"Kill him, and save the lives of thousands of your men, and your freedom for all of you; think on this exchange yourself."

"I’ll kill a batch every ten seconds, it’s up to you to choose."
