My Endless Life.

Chapter 243: Second Rank Battle
The Bone Demon was pressing in front, Li Xueren protected Li Qi and faced the Bone Demon head-on.

The two people's qi collided in the air, and just the clash of the emitted qi was enough to turn the grass and trees on the roadside into a mess.

Li Qi was protected by Li Xueren and did not have to face the power of the second-grade grandmaster head-on. He felt relatively relaxed and was in a mood to think about the current situation.

Judging from the way Bone Demon addressed Li Xueren, Li Xueren has not done nothing in the past decade or so overseas.

He even earned the title of 'insect demon'.

However, Li Qi did not see any bugs on Li Xueren's body, and he did not know where his nickname "Bug Demon" came from.

But these questions are not important. What is important now is the 'Son of God' they mentioned.

Son?

Who is the Son?

Li Qi looked around and it was not difficult to guess that the Holy Son that the Bone Demon was talking about was Li Qi himself.

But how come Li Qi himself didn’t know that he had become the holy son of some evil cult?

However, if Li Xueren and the Bone Demon both came for this 'holy son', then it makes sense that Li Xueren cherishes Li Qi so much, and only Li Qi.

Li Qi's position in the Demon Cult may be very special. Li Xueren has been overseas for so long. Regardless of the martial arts he practices, he has already been infected by the Demon Cult's culture, so he wants to do something with Li Qi.

Of course, it is undeniable that he really cares about his grandson. This is true, and Li Qi can sense it.

But at the same time, Li Qi's identity as the Son of God is probably of great use to him, otherwise he would not have wanted to take Li Qi out after knowing that the disciples of the Ten Thousand Poison Sect might be in the town.

Li Qi connected the clues here, and then heard Li Xueren say:

"Nonsense! I don't care about the Holy Son or not! I only know that Qi'er is my darling grandson! So I will never hand him over to you to be the Holy Son!
"Do you think I don't know? The so-called Holy Son is nothing but a sacrifice to the Cleansing Platform!"

“Hehehe, Old Demon Chong, I understand that you care about your grandson, but you must understand that from now on, the Central Plains martial arts world will definitely be ruled by our Demon Sect. If you return the Holy Son now, the Demon Sect will be able to protect your blood descendants in the future, but if you don’t hand over the Holy Son…”

The bone demon's eyes turned cold:

"When the demon sect sweeps across the Central Plains in the future, I'm afraid your whole family will be wiped out."

"Bone Demon! How dare you threaten me!!!"

Hearing the Bone Demon's words, veins popped out on Li Xueren's forehead.

"I am threatening you! If you have the guts, call out that big bug of yours!"

The Bone Demon sneered and continued, "Why, the bugs were left overseas and not brought in?"

"Don't talk about me, Bone Demon! Where is your Skeleton Army? Without the Skeleton Army, you are nothing but a Bone Demon!"

"There is no Skeleton Army! I am also a Bone Demon!!"

As the Bone Demon spoke, the sword flew up again and headed straight for Li Xueren.

But this time, in addition to the long sword, Li Qi also saw a huge bony hand formed by the Bone Demon's internal energy, reaching out to Li Xueren.

When one reaches the Grandmaster level, the innate internal energy turns into Gangqi, which can then be used to transform into various shapes.

Of course, the transformation of the Gangqi also follows certain rules. Generally speaking, the transformation will be determined by the technique you practice.

Judging from the Bone Demon's bony hand, the technique he practices should be related to bones.

That's true, otherwise how could he be called the Bone Demon.

"Without the Skeleton Army, you are nothing!"

Facing the bony hand coming towards him, Li Xueren was not afraid at all. The internal Qi surged around him, and the blue-green Qi formed a beetle-like shell on his body. The huge beetle's pincers collided with the bony hand!
boom! !

The strong energy dissipated and Li Qi was blown away several steps. He retreated far away before stopping.

He looked up at Li Xueren who was fighting with the Bone Demon, and understood why the other party was called the Insect Demon.

At the same time, he also realized that the martial arts that Li Xueren was currently practicing was definitely not the Linglong Heart Sutra passed down in his family!

Although the Linglong Heart Sutra has moves that simulate other martial arts, similar to the Xiao Wuxiang Gong in "Demi-Gods and Semi-Devils", the main protective energy is still in the form of invisible and colorless transparent crystals.

The Gang Qi can transform into shapes, and most of the time it will transform into the weapons or mechanical props that one is most familiar with.

The method Li Xueren used at this moment was such that the huge insect was almost condensed into substance. It didn't look like an illusion created by the internal energy of the Linglong Heart Sutra at all.

During these ten years, has Li Xueren changed the martial arts he practices?

Li Qi was thinking in his heart. Seeing that the fight between Tiankong and the other man was getting more and more intense, and that Li Xueren was intending to lead the Bone Demon away, he immediately came up with an idea.

He slowly retreated, gradually withdrawing from the range of the two people's fight, and then quickly ran towards the direction of Qiqiao Villa!
Are you kidding? Let alone a fight between second-grade grandmasters, even if it was a fight between third-grade masters, Li Qi couldn't get involved at all.

Staying here would only become a burden to Li Xueren, so it would be better to leave quickly and go back for help.

Li Qi escaped quietly, but could not escape the eyes of Li Xueren and the Bone Demon above.

Seeing Li Qi escape cleverly, Li Xueren breathed a sigh of relief.

But the Bone Demon sneered and said:

"Old Worm Demon, oh Old Worm Demon, after all these years, you are still so naive. Do you really think that I will watch the Holy Son escape?"

"!!"

Li Xueren's pupils shrank: "It's fine if you come alone, but you dare to bring others here!"

The Bone Demon sneaked into the territory of Da Qi from overseas. If he was alone, it would be easy to deal with. If he was a little careful, he could avoid being discovered by the patrol troops.

But if we bring a few more people, there’s no guarantee that they’ll reveal their tracks somewhere, and then all of these evildoers who have sneaked in will be caught in one fell swoop!
So when Li Xueren saw the Bone Demon, he thought he came alone and didn't expect that he would bring someone with him.

but now……

“Hehe, of course I am the only one from the Ten Thousand Demon Sect who came here, but I didn’t say that other demon sects didn’t send people here… hehe.”

The Bone Demon smiled sinisterly, and his ugly face, which looked like a skeleton, made people feel even more disgusted.

Seeing his smiling face, Li Xueren's heart immediately sank. He really didn't expect that the Ten Thousand Demons Sect would actually cooperate with other people.

Although on the surface the demonic sects have cooperated with each other to form an alliance, the demonic nature deep in their bones still causes friction between them.

It’s still okay within the scope that the Demonic Alliance can take into consideration.

Once they leave this range and come to the heartland of the Central Plains where the demons have no control over them, they will definitely not hesitate to use shady tactics against their former "companions"!

The Ten Thousand Demon Sect, the Ten Thousand Poison Sect, and some other demonic sects can definitely beat the brains out of a dog in places where no one else can see.

Who could have thought that the Bone Demon would actually cooperate with other demon sects and let other demon sects deal with Li Qi?
With cold eyes he looked at the Bone Demon, then Li Xueren quickly retreated, wanting to look for Li Qi.

But the next second he was stopped by a larger bone phantom, and the bone chain connected to the bone hand blocked his retreat.

The bone demon's sinister laughter came again:

"Hehehe, let the younger generation handle their own affairs. Old Demon Chong, let's settle our grievances here first!"

"Li Gu!! You are looking for death!!!"

Seeing that his way was robbed, Li Xueren became even angrier. A blue-black aura emerged from his body, and the sound of insects flapping their wings resounded through the sky.

"Hey, it's still uncertain who will live and who will die!"

As Li Gu spoke, his body covered with huge white bones, collided with the swarm of insects created by Li Xueren.

……

"..."

The fluctuation of the energy behind him let Li Qi know that the battle had entered a white-hot stage.

But at this moment he had no time to worry about what was happening behind him.

The further he ran towards the town, the stranger he felt.

There was a special gas in the air trying to penetrate into Li Qi's body, competing with Li Qi's own recovery ability.

It's poison.

Someone's poisoned this area!

Li Qi's eyes flickered, and in the blink of an eye he thought of a solution.

He did not slow down, but his expression was a little terrified, like a frightened child.

Although this expression was somewhat artificial considering his current disguise, the person hiding in the dark probably had no mood to observe Li Qi's expression.

Just give it an appropriate 'performance'.

After running in fear for a while, Li Qi suddenly stumbled, lost his balance and fell forward.

Gollum-

His body rolled into a ball and rolled on the ground for several times. Li Qi's body finally stopped after hitting a tree at the end of the road.

With a bang, he fell on the tree trunk, looking forward in a daze, as if he was completely unaware of what had happened.

“What…what’s going on…?”

He tried to move his body, but no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't move even a finger.

Then Li Qi seemed to have just thought of something, and suddenly reached into his arms, and with trembling hands he took out a small bottle full of pills.

The small bottle contains detoxification pills, the kind that people in the martial arts world often carry.

It is extremely effective against common poisons and drugs. Li Qi took it out, and it was clear at a glance that he had guessed that he was poisoned, so he wanted to take out the antidote pill to detoxify himself.

Li Qi held the small bottle of detoxification pill in his hand, but before he could open it, a stone flew from a distance and hit the small bottle in Li Qi's hand accurately.

Li Qi, who had little strength to begin with, was hit so hard that the small bottle in his hand flew out immediately.

Li Qi was startled at first, then he looked forward in shock and anger, and shouted:
"who is it!!"

“Tsk tsk, I thought the Holy Son that Senior Bone Demon was pursuing was a man of extraordinary talent, but I didn’t expect that he could be defeated so easily by me.”

A hoarse voice sounded from the bushes.

Under Li Qi's gaze, a young man with an ordinary face and wearing the martial arts uniform commonly worn by martial artists emerged from the bushes.

He has an unremarkable appearance and is of average height, the kind of ordinary person who would be lost if you only glance at him once in a crowd.

But it is precisely such a person who exudes the aura of a fourth-grade innate person.

This is a master of the fourth level of innateness!

"You...are...the Demon Sect?"

Li Qi looked increasingly weak and asked with difficulty.

The man smiled and walked towards Li Qi, introducing himself:

"Wan Ping from the Wan Du Sect, I'm honored to meet the Holy Son. Sir, please come back with me. If you surrender obediently, you will suffer less."

"The Ten Thousand Poison Sect..."

Li Qi's eyelids drooped, as if he was forcing himself to talk to the other party, and he whispered:
"...I...I am Li Qi, the young master of Qiqiao Villa. If you...if you dare to attack me...Qiqiao Villa will not...will not let you go..."

"Okay, no matter if you are the old or young owner, you have no choice but to be captured. I advise you to save your energy, otherwise you will have a hard time on the ship when you get on board."

As Wan Ping spoke, he took out a rope from somewhere and moved towards Li Qi with it.

Li Qi closed his eyes completely, as if he had fallen asleep.

Wan Ping didn't take it seriously and came to Li Qi and tried to tie him up.

However, at the moment when Wan Ping approached Li Qi, Li Qi suddenly opened his eyes, and his skillful hands produced two daggers as if by magic, and stabbed them straight into Wan Ping's throat!
