Infiltrating the righteous path? Just another place to be a sycophant.

Chang Yuqing opened his fan, and countless mysterious characters and symbols appeared behind him, instantly unleashing an overwhelming and terrifying aura.

"He's a big shot!" That was Lu An's first reaction upon seeing this person.

Chang Yuqing sneered, then raised his hand and pointed at the fox demon, saying, "Demon, wait until I take action and capture you..."

Snapped!

The fox demon slapped Chang Yuqing, who had just been exuding an air of superiority, and sent him flying.

Everyone was stunned.

"Ninth level of Void Refinement, you dare to block my way? If you want to die, just find a rock and smash your head against it. Why humiliate yourself like this?!"

The fox demon sneered and prepared to leave.

Instead, countless dense magic arrays appeared in the sky, from which countless ropes extended, like a swarm of snakes, rushing towards the fox demon.

Before long, the rope had climbed up to Grandma's body and secured her tightly.

When Lu An saw it, he actually felt that the posture was a little embarrassing.

Is this... a way of restraining a certain turtle?

"Hmph, you think you can look down on me just because I'm at the ninth level of the Void Refinement stage? So what if you're at the Tribulation Transcending stage?" Chang Yuqing covered his swollen face and laughed smugly, "This is an ancient magic artifact. Don't even mention you at the fifth level of the Tribulation Transcending stage, even if you're at the seventh level, you'll be locked up by it!"

Everyone was stunned. It turned out that this guy dared to block the Tribulation Transcending Stage because he possessed an ancient magical artifact.

What's even more surprising is that this guy actually withstood a slap from a fox demon at the fifth level of the Tribulation Realm. His face was swollen, but he didn't turn to ashes.

“Elder Lu, this person is named Chang Yuqing. It is said that he has a strange innate holy body. No matter how much damage he suffers, he will only be seriously injured at most, but his physical body will not be completely destroyed.” Yu Wanqing explained, “Of course, I haven’t tried the power of the later stages of the Mahayana and Tribulation Transcending stages yet, so I don’t know if his physical body is truly indestructible.”

Upon hearing this, Lu An's lips twitched slightly.

Good grief, has a player with invincibility frames arrived?!

"really?"

"It's true. It's said that he was besieged by demonic experts for days and nights, but he just couldn't be killed. Although his head was swollen like a pig's head, no one could kill him." Yu Wanqing whispered in Lu An's ear, "He is also one of the top ten experts of the Righteous Path Alliance, although he is only ranked tenth."

"Those at the Void Refinement stage have become the top ten experts?"

Lu An was shocked, thinking that only those in the Tribulation Transcending stage could be among the top ten experts.

The Demonic Path also has ten top masters, but that's just a random ranking made up by the people there. There's no authoritative list; it's just that everyone assumes it's that way, so there's always been controversy.

But those who make it onto the list seem to be mostly old monsters who have undergone tribulation.

However, the Righteous Alliance here is said to have an officially recognized ranking list, and Lu An heard that those on the list are all those who have transcended tribulation.

"Because this guy... is hard to kill... is a real nuisance... and can sometimes be used as bait."

Lu An understood now.

Isn't this the Sandbag Saint Body? No wonder he can become one of the top ten experts of the Righteous Path Alliance.

"Also, the tenth person to undergo tribulation died. He was exactly eleventh... so..."

He's got some incredible luck; I'm a little jealous.

"Fellow Daoists, hurry! I have her firmly under control!"

Chang Yuqing shouted loudly.

However, no one went up.

Chang Yuqing was stunned, wondering why no one was going up.

"Wait a minute, I'm gathering my strength!" This was the abbot, who was currently rubbing his hands together, seemingly preparing to unleash a powerful attack.

"I was just injured and I'm out of spiritual power!"

My weapon is broken!

My underwear just fell down!

My mom is calling me home for dinner!

"I need to pick up my child from school!"

A variety of responses emerged, and everyone seized the opportunity to leave. What was originally a good opportunity to fight back was instead used as a good opportunity to run away.

Then a hint of envy flashed in Lu An's eyes.

I'm so envious, I want to run too.

Yu Wanqing's aura suddenly changed. She closed her eyes, and the spiritual energy around her gradually receded, making her as quiet as a block of ice.

However, Lu An suddenly felt a pang of palpitation, and his heart began to beat rapidly.

What's going on? Could it be...?

Lu An turned to look at Yu Wanqing, only to see her serious and cold expression.

"Elder Lu, please protect me!" Yu Wanqing said, then stepped into the void and took two steps forward.

That dashing and heroic figure is so damn handsome.

In an instant, Lu An felt a chill emanating from Yu Wanqing's side, and the temperature plummeted.

Snowflakes drifted down, and Yu Wanqing's long hair rose without wind. Her eyes were filled with chilling killing intent, and her divine sense quickly locked onto the fox demon.

The fox spirit was suddenly startled, feeling as if a sharp sword was pointing straight at her heart, giving her an inescapable sense of life and death crisis.

"Demon, prepare to die!"

Chapter Sixty-Five: Hero Protects Beauty

The surrounding temperature suddenly dropped, countless snowflakes fell from the sky, and then the sword was drawn.

Without any fancy special effects, a flash of blue light appeared, and a phantom of Yu Wanqing shot out like an arrow.

The fox spirit felt a chill creep over her, and an urgent sense of crisis made her rush away, but her hands, feet and body were bound, and she couldn't move at all.

puff!

Several spurts of blood gushed out, and she felt a sharp pain in her body before her clothes tore to shreds.

"Damn...!"

In the midst of the excruciating pain, her demonic power surged instantly, and even the magical chains binding her began to sway.

Bang! Bang!

The demonic energy surged at an incredible speed, and she finally broke free from her restraints.

"You bastards actually forced me to use my natal demon soul!"

The fox demon's appearance was ferocious and terrifying, and it had become skeletal in shape, with its malevolent aura surging wildly.

Its momentum is already on par with Rihado, it seems to have unleashed its final form, this round is truly over.

Lu An wanted to turn around and leave, but Yu Wanqing showed no intention of backing down. She simply stood in the air and quietly watched everything.

However, blood was already flowing from the corner of her mouth, and her internal energy was beginning to become disordered.

"This sword is not so simple... Don't panic..."

Yu Wanqing wiped the blood from the corner of her mouth and said calmly.

The fox demon's aura surged wildly, but suddenly, she felt a chill run through her heart, followed by a piercing, bone-scratching pain that struck her very soul.

The fox demon coughed up a mouthful of blood, and its demonic energy rapidly decreased.

This change in momentum is strikingly similar to the scene at the A-share market in my past life.

So the fox spirit abandoned its desire to continue fighting and turned to leave.

However, the Buddha's figure appeared behind her.

Then, one after another, a net of heaven and earth fell instantly.

Lu An turned around and saw that they were the fellow cultivators who had just made an excuse to run away.

"Demon, we are of one mind, how could we let you escape!?"

"Our escape just now was a feint; don't think we're afraid of you!"

"I did not return because of changes in the situation! It is our duty to unite and slay the demon!"

"Demon, don't think we'll fear you just because you're a powerful demon undergoing tribulation! Humans will never be slaves!"

Everyone was in high spirits, and their earlier panicked scramble seemed like it was all just an act.

Good heavens, you guys are such opportunists, no wonder you're doing so well.

The fox demon sneered, then closed its eyes. A purple light shot into the sky, and streaks of purple lightning flashed within the clouds.

"You can summon people, and I can summon demons too!" The fox demon said fiercely, then gathered and condensed its demonic power, creating a protective shield like an eggshell.

A familiar aura suddenly approached from afar, and the deafening rumble of thunder startled everyone.

A moment later, Lu An saw the giant dragon head in the clouds reappear before everyone.

"Sorry everyone, I forgot to hang my clothes out to dry, I'm heading home now."

"Haha, my wife is calling me home."

"Oh dear, look at my memory, I forgot that my second uncle's eldest uncle's third brother's fourth aunt's daughter had a baby."

"Hey, Mom... What? You said my maternal grandma is going to give birth? And my paternal grandma is going to give birth too?! What wonderful news! I'm going to have uncles and maternal uncles!"

The group found another excuse and vanished into thin air.

Before long, only a group of monks and members of the Righteous Alliance remained.

And the people of that half of Ping'an City had all fled.

The enormous gale blew in, and the thunderclouds that blotted out the sky rolled in, the huge dragon head bringing an unparalleled sense of oppression.

"Sect Master Yu, this is a dragon at the eighth level of the Tribulation Transcending Realm! We must run!"

Lu An finally settled in Bengbu and began persuading people to flee.

Damn it, I've wasted almost ten chapters here. If I don't hurry up and move on to a different location, the readers will kill me!

This is an eighth-level tribulation dragon! You can't slay a demon like this, can you? Isn't this just handing it food?

Surviving its dragon breath last time was truly a stroke of luck, a stroke of incredible fortune.

"Elder Lu, is that the Ancient Thunder Dragon?" Yu Wanqing asked softly, looking at the giant dragon.

"That's it! Sect Leader Yu, let's go! We really can't fight any longer!" Lu An wanted to stop Yu Wanqing, but he didn't dare.

How dare a mere Golden Core cultivator mess around with a Tribulation Transcending expert?

The abbot clasped his hands together, creating a barrier of Buddhist power to block the lightning that kept flashing around the ancient thunder dragon.

"Tu Shanlu, why are you calling me with your innate demonic power!?"

"We beg Your Majesty to take action! Annihilate these humans!"

"You want me to take action? To wipe out these humans?" Gu Leilong frowned, his voice booming like an ancient bell: "Tu Shanlu, do you know what the price is for asking me to take action?"

"My Qingqiu also possesses a supreme innate treasure, a divine stone left behind by Nuwa when she mended the sky. It can help Your Excellency overcome your tribulation!" Tu Shanlu said softly after a moment of silence.

Not only Gu Leilong, but everyone else who heard this widened their eyes in surprise.

A divine stone left behind by Nuwa when she mended the sky? Is there such a treasure in the world?

"Is this true?"

"In the name of Qingqiu!"

Gu Leilong fell silent, and his silence silenced the entire city of Ping'an.

Nobody's stupid. Why fight in front of a demon at the eighth level of the Tribulation Transcending Realm? Run if you can.

While some remained silent, others were fleeing en masse.

Then, Gu Leilong nodded in agreement: "I agree, but why do you have to go to such lengths?"

"That woman planted something inside me, I want her dead!"

The fox demon pointed at Yu Wanqing, her hysterical voice sounding as if she had killed her own mother.

"Transcending the first and second levels of tribulation? Heh, is it that simple?" Gu Leilong chuckled, almost thinking he had misheard.
