Traveling the Heavens in Thunderbolt

Chapter 1023 The Leader of Demons
Yi Ye Shu didn't care what Xu Fengnian was thinking, but said directly: "Because of the matter of King Yan, I owe you some karma. Therefore, I will provide some help in due time while you are hiding in Bei Mang."

Xu Fengnian climbed up the pole and thanked him quickly, "Thank you, Master."

"You don't have to thank me." Yi Ye Shu waved his hand and said, "Because I will decide the cause and effect and when to repay. Perhaps, I will not take action even if you die in Bei Mang."

After hearing what Yi Ye Shu said, Xu Fengnian was speechless, "This..."

"Goodbye." The Buddha's body was surrounded by golden light and he instantly disappeared in front of Xu Fengnian and Hongshu.

Afterwards, Xu Fengnian and Hongshu returned to Dunhuang City.

Hongshu's identity is not as simple as it seems. On the surface, she is Xu Fengnian's maid.

In fact, she was one of the two death warriors left by the Princess of Beiliang for Xu Fengnian.

In addition to these two identities, she is a member of the Beimang royal family and may even be the illegitimate daughter of the Beimang Empress.

He was a spy sent by Beimang to Beiliang Prefecture, but unexpectedly, he was instigated to rebel by Xu Fengnian's mother Wu Su.

During the years she lived in the Beiliang Palace, she would disappear for a period of time every year, and the place she passed by during this time was the city of Dunhuang in Beimang.

The previous lord of Dunhuang City was Hongshu's aunt, and her aunt was once a concubine of the Beimang royal court. She was framed by the Beimang empress and fell out of favor. She withdrew from the fight for the position of queen and retired to Dunhuang City to become the lord of the city.

The empress had always wanted to get rid of him as soon as possible, but because she was afraid that her aunt would help Tuoba Bodhisattva when he had not yet mastered martial arts, she never sent troops to Dunhuang City because of this favor.

Later, Hongshu's aunt died from serious injuries in a battle with Luoyang, the number one evil leader in Beimang, in order to prevent him from entering the city.

Before his death, he left a will that Hongshu would take over the position of city lord and kept the news of his death secret.

In theory, Hongshu should inherit his aunt's wish and take charge of Dunhuang City.

Unfortunately, there were undercurrents in the city, and the news of my aunt's death had also spread.

Photo taken by the aunt known as Sweet Potato. The various forces in the city under the powerful rule of this "Second King" are ready to make a move again.

Hongshu chose to return to Dunhuang City at this time, not only to wait for Xu Fengnian, but also to carry out the strategy that Li Yishan had laid out before his death.

According to the original plan, sweet potatoes were used as bait, and her death was used to lure out all the rebels in the city.

Then Xu Pu, the former commander of the 12th Battalion Light Cavalry of Northern Liang, who had been lurking in the city for a long time, united with the powerful families in the city who had long since defected to Northern Liang, wiped out the rebels, successfully took over Dunhuang City, and became the new lord of the city.

Xu Fengnian was unwilling to see Hongshu die, so he stood alone at the city gate in a white robe, holding a Chunhu knife, blocking hundreds of cavalrymen and killing them, leaving corpses all over the ground.

Xu Pu took action and united the forces in the city to cut off the rebels' retreat, and the rebellion was put down in one fell swoop.

Afterwards, all the major families that helped to suppress the rebellion were rewarded. Xu Pu, who was willing to bear the reputation of not striving for progress for many years, was even promoted to deputy city lord.

On the second day after the rebellion was quelled, Xu Fengnian, Hongshu and Xu Pu went out in the heavy rain and headed for the small tavern at the city gate.

Xu Fengnian was going to leave the city, and Hongshu and Xu Pu were going to see him off as the Prince of Beiliang.

I didn't want to come here, but I saw a scene of hell.

The ground was littered with broken limbs and debris. It was the devil Luoyang, who was about to enter the city again.

Luoyang, the number one devil in Beimang, always wears white clothes and travels across the eight states of Beimang. Wherever he goes, he kills gods and kills Buddhas.

There were many masters from the ten major sects who stepped forward to stop it, like a deputy master of Tibing Mountain, an old monk who swept the Caiji Buddhist Caves, and an orthodox descendant of the Daode Sect.

But without exception, they all died at the hands of this devil.

In the end, she killed her way all the way to the Beimang Royal Court before she stopped.

This devil has now reappeared outside Dunhuang City, and his purpose is unclear.

But Xu Fengnian, who had encountered her once, knew that no matter what, he could not let her enter the city.

He immediately started fighting with Luoyang.

It was called a fight, but in reality Luoyang crushed three people alone. The flying sword that Xu Fengnian had cultivated for a long time could not penetrate Luoyang's body at all.

He was even trapped by Luoyang's sword that turned rain into sword.

At the critical moment, auspicious clouds gathered in the sky.

A huge pressure enveloped him, forcing Luoyang to let Xu Fengnian go.

Xu Fengnian took the opportunity to escape and distance himself from Luoyang.

At the scene, only a clear and melodious poem was heard, "The world is like a chess game, the universe is unpredictable, and the heroes are all laughing~"

The holy shadow of Buddha was born to stop the number one demon in Northern Mang.

Suddenly, the wind stopped and the rain stopped.

Seeing this, the swordsman on the city wall who was about to take action put down his sword.

Yi Ye Shu stood in front of Luo Yang and said, "Luo Yang, leader of all the demons in Bei Mang, with me here, you can't hurt anyone."

Luoyang looked at Xu Fengnian who was hiding far away and asked, "I thought you were half-disciple of Li Chungang and had some relationship with Deng Tai'a. I didn't expect that you also had a relationship with this bald donkey."

Without waiting for Xu Fengnian to reply, Yi Ye Shu, with a look of cloud beasts on his face, said, "I owe him some karma. After this matter is settled, it has nothing to do with me anymore."

After hearing this, Xu Fengnian's plan to use the tiger's skin as a banner was thwarted, and he could only say helplessly: "Compared to you, I like Huang Baozhuang more."

"Ha~" Luoyang chuckled when he heard that, but his laughter was filled with murderous intent, making people shudder.

With a stomp of his foot, the rain on the ground turned into rain swords and attacked Yi Ye Shu.

A page of book swept away the dust, and thousands of rain swords immediately dispersed.

The rain sword that left Xu Fengnian powerless to fight back was dissolved by Yi Ye Shu with a flip of his hand.

The swordsman on the top of the city wall, carrying the nameless sword, saw this scene and said, "I didn't expect that there would be someone else in the world who would reach this point besides Wang Xianzhi."

Xu Fengnian, who had witnessed this level of battle before, had already taken Hongshu and hid far away when the battle started in Luoyang.

Xu Pu also followed Xu Fengnian and retreated along the street.

When they were half a mile away, Xu Fengnian sat cross-legged and watched the battle with his eyes closed.

In the center of the battlefield, Yi Ye Shu took action.

With the first step taken, an unparalleled gust of air, carrying the rainwater on the ground, attacked Luoyang.

Luoyang split the air waves with one palm and jumped towards Yi Ye Shu.

Yi Ye Shu moved his palm, and golden holy light emanated from his body. The powerful palm force pushed Luoyang back.

The moment Luoyang's feet landed on the ground, the energy he brought with him cracked the ground three feet deep, but he himself did not suffer any damage.

Then, Yi Ye Shu took a deep breath and stretched out his arms. Behind him, there were many Buddha shadows, like a thousand-armed holy Buddha, transforming thousands into one.

Seeing that this move was as strong as Luoyang's, he had to concentrate and gather all his energy into his palm. "What a strong bald donkey! I didn't even include you in the world's martial arts rankings. What a mistake~"

The moment the two sides took over, Luoyang only felt that his opponent's true energy was as vast as the ocean, and for the first time he felt unprecedented pressure.

Yi Ye Shu overpowered the leader of the demons with one palm, and urged his inner energy to...

Thanks to Rebellious Thorns for the generous reward.

Thanks to the generous reward from Dutianshensha Zhoutianxingchen.

Thanks for the reward from Ling Lemeng.
