Chapter 377: Southern Expedition to Wang Qing
"Mom, when can we eat?"

The childish voice was silenced before it could finish its words, and only a dull hum was left behind.

The woman pressed her child's red face and looked outside through the small hole in horror.

Half-human, half-ghost monsters were wandering outside, and the young children did not understand how terrible they were experiencing.

The monster seemed to have heard the noise and walked towards this side.

"God, have mercy on me!"

The woman prayed desperately in her heart, but no miracle happened.

The half-human, half-ghost monster smelled the scent of living people in the air.

"Hahaha, it's actually hidden here!"

The half-human, half-ghost monster pulled aside the cover of the cellar.

Looking at the women and children huddled together in the cellar, a hideous smile appeared on his face.

"I didn't expect there was such a delicate and tender baby hidden there! I got a great bargain!"

The monster reached out and snatched the child from the woman's arms, and the woman pleaded with horror on her face.

"No, no! Please let him go!"

"Let him go?" The monster's smile became even more ferocious.

"Don't worry, it will be your turn next, and you will be reunited in my belly!"

Just when the monster was about to put the child to his mouth, his eyes blurred and the child disappeared from his hands.

"What……"

Before it could finish its thought, it felt its body was powerless and even felt dizzy. It saw a familiar headless figure.

"It's not a pity to die!" The cold words sounded. It wanted to turn its head to look, but it couldn't move.

"I am dead?"

As soon as the monster had the thought, he felt his body falling infinitely until he saw a gloomy and terrifying door.

The hundreds of relief carvings of evil spirits engraved on the two doors suddenly came to life.

One by one, the evil statues stretched out their arms, and their sharp claws scraped against the stone door, making a harsh sound.

As his limbs exerted force, ripples began to appear on the stone gate.

I saw a group of evil and vicious spirits struggling to pull their bodies out of the stone gate, and they rushed towards the monster.

The monster was torn into countless pieces while wailing and lost all consciousness.

When the monster was torn to pieces, these evil spirits returned to the gate and turned into statues again, looking even more vivid.

These fragments of the Ghost Gate, combined with the reincarnation barrier, became a new Ghost Gate and achieved a certain degree of growth.

The Ghost Gate absorbed some evil ghosts from the hungry ghost realm.

These evil ghosts will devour the evil souls thrown into the barrier by Mu Yi. The stronger they are, the stronger the gate of hell will be.

As long as the Gate of Hell is not destroyed, these evil ghosts connected with the Gate of Hell will be immortal.

Day and night, they sit at the gates of hell, devouring those evil souls who resist and commit heinous crimes.

Outside the barrier, Mu Yi handed the child to the woman with a grim expression. As the woman thanked him with gratitude, he swung his sword and killed all the half-human, half-ghost creatures.

These half-human, half-ghost creatures were trash that he could easily kill, but for ordinary people, they were almost a natural disaster.

There are absolutely no living people left in the entire Qingzhou.

Not only the villages, but even the towns were basically all destroyed, and very few people survived.

Even though Mu Yi flew non-stop over the land of Qingzhou, he only saved more than 10,000 people. Other than that, all he could see were corpses and ruins.

Bringing the woman and the child into the human world, Mu Yi fell into extremely conflicting emotions.

He knew clearly that although these people were killed, their souls could still enter reincarnation. From God's perspective, these people were not completely dead.

As a human being, Mu Yi only felt endless anger.

Not only was he angry at these monsters, but he was also angry at himself. After all, all of this was inseparable from him.

The separation between the human and divine identities made Mu Yi unsure of how to face everything in front of him.

Mu Yi stood there with an uncertain expression. He didn't know how to face these people.

A white-haired, emaciated old man, speaking with a thick rural accent, approached cautiously and asked:
"My Lord, may I ask your name?"

"We will worship your statue in the future and kowtow to you day and night to thank you for saving our lives!"

Mu Yi looked at the old man in front of him, not knowing what to say.

"What if I say that everything here is caused by me?"

"I don't understand the affairs of the gods. I only know that you saved us from those monsters and avenged us!"

The old man raised his head tremblingly and looked at Mu Yi, with only sincerity in his eyes.

Revenge, Mu Yi nodded, and there was no confusion in his eyes.

Since this matter was caused by him, he should naturally bear the responsibility.

He cannot change what has happened, and he cannot control what has happened in the cycle of reincarnation.

But there are still things he can do.

Since he wanted revenge, those who died now were just minions, and the real culprit has not been eliminated yet.

"I am the Lord of Heaven who chases demons and eliminates filth! I will avenge them and let you live here again!"

Mu Yi blocked his own throne and promised the old man.

"God, have mercy!"

The old man didn't understand what Mu Yi was thinking, but he could understand that Mu Yi wanted to help them regain their homes so that they could live in their own homes again.

Mu Yi exchanged some food supplies from the Internet, brought the people he rescued back to the main world, and found a place to settle them in Kunlun Mountain.

Then he took all the Blood Soul Stones and Blood God Sons and drove directly towards Huaixi.

We will never win by attacking Liangshan head-on.

Especially after Mu Yi figured out the strength of the evil ghosts on the beam, he gave up the idea of ​​a head-on confrontation.

Although the 108 generals on Mount Liangshan are now all evil spirits, they are also the original people of Liangshan. Before they awakened their evil spirit natures, people like Wu Yong, Zhu Wu, and Gongsun Sheng were not much different from the Tiangang and Disha in other worlds.

After their souls are reincarnated, their growth will be subtly influenced, and the Heavenly Court uses this method to trap them in disasters and let them grow along the growth trajectory of the Heavenly Gang and the Earthly Evil. That's why the 108 Generals of Liangshan Marsh appeared.

However, due to their different origins, they were more brutal, and even before they awakened, they occasionally ate human flesh.

Originally, they would have died due to the inertia of Kyushu's history, returned to the underworld, and been suppressed again.

But now there is a problem. They have awakened their evil spirit nature and are much stronger than before.

Mu Yi extracted a lot of information about the Liangshan evil ghosts before their transformation from the memories of those minions.

Those who are worthy of being leaders have all reached the pinnacle of inner energy leaving the body (high-level legendary) cultivation, while those like Jade Unicorn Lu Junyi and Black Whirlwind Li Kui have reached the realm-breaking level (demigod) cultivation.

Ruyunlong Gongsun Sheng is a Taoist priest, while wise man Wu Yong and divine military strategist Zhu Wu are counselors with spiritual talents. There are also Kyushu-specific professions such as mechanical engineer, animal trainer, and miracle doctor.

After becoming a demon, he will probably be even more powerful.

These half-human, half-ghost minions were created by Wu Yong and An Daoquan, who was originally known as a miracle doctor.

They used a strange magic to transform all the minions on Liangshan into this half-human, half-ghost form.

Although after being transformed, these minions have obviously deviated from the category of human beings, and even their minds have been distorted. No matter what their personalities were before the transformation, after the transformation, they all became bloodthirsty and crazy.

But they didn't feel that there was anything wrong, as if everything was natural. Even when talking about the past, there was nothing unusual.

Everything is so natural.

This is the most troublesome part, not only does it mean that these monsters are not human, it also means that these monsters can fight just as they did before.

Lu Junyi and other generals and leaders are able to use cloud energy.

There are more than 120,000 minions in Liangshan, and Mu Yi had only killed a little over 10,000 of them before Qingzhou. Liangshan can only gather an army of 100,000.

There is also the Tiangang and Disha formation created by the Queen Mother of the West.

To be honest, Mu Yi felt that even if this third-generation disciple from Yuxu Palace was stronger than Taiwei, he would not be able to solve the problem.

If you're unlucky, you might even die here.

The Song Dynasty court, which could have been used as a supporting force, was now in chaos. The rebellion of the four major bandits had already made the Song Dynasty look precarious, and after the emperor was killed, it was even more torn apart.

Mu Yi did not expect the Song Dynasty court to send troops to suppress Liangshan. To be honest, there are still many famous generals in the Song Dynasty, not to mention that there is a hidden BOSS Yue Fei.

This is probably the reason why Liangshan only stayed in Qingzhou and did not dare to expand outside. On the one hand, it was afraid of arousing public anger. On the other hand, Wang Qing of Huaixi, Tian Hu of Hebei, and Fang La of Jiangnan were not to be underestimated.

The Heavenly Court transferred the Tiangang and Disha stars to other places, but the Eight Vajra of Buddhism did not leave. They were under the command of Fang La.

Under normal circumstances, more than half of the people in Liangshan would die in the war with Fang La.

Now that the Mandate of Heaven has been destroyed, the Buddhists have simply taken advantage of the situation and started to build many temples, throwing off the veneer of Manichaeism and starting to promote Buddhist teachings and expand the Pure Land of Vaiśrava.

As for Tian Hu and Wang Qing, they were just local ruffians who were just running for the show. They rose to power because of destiny, but they would also fall because of destiny.

Mu Yi was also heading for Wang Qing in Huaixi.

The best way he could think of to defeat Liangshan now, and the way he could achieve, was only one way, which was to gather a large army and rely on it to destroy Liangshan.

And this process must be fast. Although he didn't know that Liangshan massacred Qingzhou, he didn't hold a blood sacrifice ceremony.

Mu Yi couldn't figure out what was going on for a while.

However, based on the evil nature and bad behavior of Liang Shan, he could conclude that these guys were definitely causing trouble.

As for what Mu Yi said about "gathering", it was also very simple. He had no soldiers, but Wang Qing did. He would defeat Wang Qing and take over all his troops, and then take them to attack Tian Hu, thus combining the two armies into one.

As for Fang La, compared to evil spirits and bandits, Buddhism is more or less a positive character, so Mu Yi will not provoke him and will just concentrate on dealing with Liangshan.

By then, these Buddhists will probably come running over and ask to take part, and then we can consider what to do.

……

Wang Qing didn't understand where these evil spirits came from. In just half a month, they snatched a military state and eight county towns from him.

Just when he was gathering his men and planning to kill all these evil spirits in one fell swoop, his subordinates came to report a piece of news that shocked him.

"Report, there are enemy troops outside the city invading, and General Yi Yuan is challenging them right now!"

"How many troops does the enemy have?" Wang Qing was a little nervous.

"More than 15,000 people!" the messenger reported.

"With only such a small number of troops, you dare to attack us? Come with me to see for yourself!" Wang Qing was furious.

At this moment, his troops had not yet gathered in place, but he was still furious when he heard that the other side dared to cause trouble for him with only more than 15,000 people. This meant that the other side did not take him seriously at all.

The other party actually abandoned all their baggage and supplies, and even gave up the territory they had obtained, and chose to come to Yun An to find him directly.

This is simply extremely arrogant. Not to mention that there are still 30,000 soldiers in the city. Even if the number of people is the same, defending a city has always been easier than attacking it.

When Wang Qing arrived at the city wall, Mu Yi was challenging him under the wall.

"Your Majesty!" Wang Qing's military advisor Li Zhu greeted Wang Qing immediately upon seeing him.

After the rebellion achieved a temporary victory, Wang Qing called himself the King of Chu, appointed Li Zu as his military advisor, and usually people called him the King.

"Wang Qing, come out and die quickly. If you open the city and surrender now, you can still be saved. But if you wait until our army breaks through Yun'an, you will have no chance of survival!"

Mu Yi pointed the gun at Wang Qing's nose and shouted provocatively.

"Who is willing to fight? Kill this villain for me!" Wang Qing was very annoyed. It had been a long time since anyone dared to talk to him like this.

Wang Qing, who was furious, immediately planned to send someone to kill Ao Mo.

He himself is quite strong, so he can naturally see that Mu Yi is also an officer with extraordinary internal energy. Even though he looks very heroic, he is definitely no match for a master of the realm-breaking level.

Although the quality of his officers and soldiers is not as good as that of Liangshan and Fang La, they are still capable of breaking through the boundaries.

"Why use a butcher knife to kill a chicken? I am willing to fight!"

Wang Qing looked in the direction of the voice and saw a burly officer. He remembered that this man was also a strong man in the village and brought everyone in the village to join his army.

Although he only used internal energy out of his body, he once defeated officers of the same rank, and could be considered a powerful general under his command.

"Okay, General Yu Rong is willing to go, then I will order you to fight! If you can kill this villain, I will reward you handsomely!" Wang Qing waved his hand and ordered the man to fight.

However, what Wang Qing did not expect was that Yu Rong was killed by Mu Yi with a single blow just moments after he came out of the city to fight Mu Yi.

"Wang Qing, is this the only kind of earthen chicken and tile dog under your command?"

Mu Yi picked up Yu Rong's body with a knife and threw it directly onto the city wall. The body exploded into a bloody mist in mid-air.

Wang Qing was too slow to dodge and was splashed with blood mist, which made him furious.

"Who is willing to fight and kill this villain to avenge our previous humiliation?" Wang Qing shouted angrily.
