Rebirth of a Villainess Chapter 25

"Demon Lord Zhurong, when do you want us to attack . "

"Fire the arrows only my command!"

Surrounding the path that led into the BaoXu sect was an army of dark cloaked demons . Their faces hidden beneath a dark mask . The one that was being referred to as demon lord was in a similar cloak but his had the crest of the demon royal house, the xiangliu a shinning dark crimson nine headed serpent .

The dark mask on their faces was forged from the hottest flames from the depth of the river of molten lava that ran within the demon realm .

Unlike cultivators who had different levels in their sense ability, those from the demon world cannot see behind what lies ahead, therefore they depended on the "eye of Yao" also known as the mirror that sees all to show them where the enemy ahead of time . Literally meant the demon eye!

A magical tool that was given to the former Demon lord Dilong to stand as a symbol of peace between the heavens and demon realm . On his dying bed, it was passed onto the then Demon Prince Zhurong .

Throwing his head back, the demon lord took in a deep breath from the pure air that surrounded the sect he was about to infiltrate, although the air from the world of cultivators is known to be poisonous to demons, but the mask the had on was not for just hiding their faces which some believed was hideous, instead it was to make the air impure for them not to become weak against its purity .

Within the courtyard of the BaoXu sect, many of the disciples had gone to bed including the sect leader who was the last to sleep, as he had to attend to matters that related to sect .

The only ones that were awake was the disciples that stood guard outside the walls of the BaoXu sect, the sound of cicadas rang clear through the pitch black night . Eight heavy built men in purple and white robes stood guard with their sword, half of them held in their hand a paper lantern suspended by a thick stick .

The demon armies dark aura was made indiscernible by a special magical pills .

"When is the next moon going to be?"

"Wasn't it supposed to be this night?"

"It's so cold! There is nothing to look at! No stars! Just nothing!"

"Hey! Did you hear that the treaty between the demons and cultivators have crumbled to dust?!"

"Where did you hear that?"

"Where have you been? Everyone knows that it was bound to end one way or the other . "

"It's just hearsay, we have to wait until sect lea . . "

"Wait! What is that!"

They all looked to see the shine object that was in the sky, not knowing that a few meters away was the demon lord giving orders to fire arrows laced with the venom of the xiangliu, a poisonous serpent that was locked deep within the demon kingdom .

"Run! Let Sect leader Xu know that we are under attack!"

Five of the cultivators stood their ground as they fought valiantly to against the arrows coming their way, but two got struck by the arrow as it lodged into their chest, one was hit with an arrow to the neck, the last two cultivators that remained standing kept fighting, only to be distracted by when they saw the ones that were struck falling to the ground and coughing up blood . The demon lord was closer to them and caught them off guard by plunging his sword in one smooth motion into their bellies . The three that thought they had escaped had their head chopped off by the blades of the very demons that pursued them unawares .
