The Devilish Immortal Chapter 46 The Twisted Situation

After an hour, Zhu Yan rushed to where Lyu Liang was. Lyu Liang told him all the news that he had heard on his way.

"Well, it seems that our approach needs to be changed. We shall go directly to visit and say that we have encountered this matter on the way and we're here to for some inquiries. However, we shall not mention that we think their inner disciples did this." Zhu Yan pondered while touching his chin, and then said his thoughts.

This idea was in line with Lyu Liang's thoughts. The two of them hit it off and then flew to the mountain of Wutong Sect.

When he arrived at the Sect-Protection Formation, Lyu Liang cupped his hands toward the two youths in yellow that were at the foot of the formation. "I am Lyu Liang from the Sword Character Immortal Palace of Wufang Territory, besides me is my good friend Zhu Yan. I have something in doubt, and I want to consult your sect chief."

The disciples guarding the door were gatekeepers with cultivation that were at the Peak of Qi Refining. Since they couldn't detect the cultivation of the two in front of them, they immediately felt a sense of anxiety. One of them hurriedly went back to the sect, and the other person politely asked Lyu Liang to wait.

After a while, a passage opened through the Sect-Protection Formation, and several people came out. Leading the way was an elegant yet chunky white-browed old man, emitting an aura at the Late-stage of Gold Core.

"Haha, I am Water-dragon Immortal, the temporary chief of Wutong Sect. I welcome these two Taoism peers to visit our sect!" Water-dragon Immortal was very polite, and also made a 'please' gesture.

Lyu Liang and Zhu Yan quickly responded to the gesture and followed the Water-dragon Immortal into the Sect-Protection Formation. Then, they came to the main hall of the Wutong Sect.

After sitting down, Water-dragon Immortal cupped his hands and said, "My senior brother, Fire-dragon Immortal is the chief of the sect. However, he is now on vacation and has yet to return. Thus, I am the temporary chief of the sect for the time being. If there is anything that I did not do well, do let me know! I wonder why you Taoism peers have come here?"

Lyu Liang arched his hands and said what he had encountered before. Of course, his own speculations could not be said. He only mentioned that the Wutong Sect should know something about the matter as it was the most significant force in the local area and this matter happened around the sect too.

When Water-dragon Immortal heard his words, he sighed heavily and then suddenly stood up to make a deep bow to Lyu Liang and Zhu Yan. He lowered his head and said, "I am guilty of this! I know this matter, and I know it well. However, my strength is too weak and cannot eliminate these demon people!"

Looking at the other party's heartwrenching expression, Lyu Liang and Zhu Yan also hurriedly stood up and bowed their hands in return, "Chief brother, you do not need to be so polite! Please tell us what happened, if there is anything we can help with, we will do our best!"

Water-dragon Immortal raised his head, his face was full of guilt, and he said slowly, "One hundred years ago, at the edge of Shang Qiu Town, a Demon Clan person came suddenly. His cultivation was equivalent to the Early-stage of Nascent Soul. After he came here, he began to practice evil methods. Every few months, he will catch children that are under the age of six and use them for a blood sacrifice. I wanted to get rid of the demon immediately but unfortunately, not only was the difference in our strength too big, he also had a protection formation to support him."

"Finally, I had to give up on the demon for the time being as the sect had lost many disciples. In order to not cause panic among the townspeople, we blocked the news and protected the children who had not been harmed. Since then, the children of Shang Qiu Town were no longer kidnapped, but as far as I know, children in neighboring villages and towns have begun to go missing one after another. Chief senior brother left here to get help from the outside. Alas! My Wutong Sect is not fulfilling its responsibility!" At the end of his speech, two lines of tears flowed down the face of the Water-dragon Immortal.

Lyu Liang was enraged! Horrible demons! So what if he was at the Nascent Soul stage and had a protection formation? Bah, what's the big deal!

Immediately, Lyu Liang's adrenaline rose and asked in frustration, "Water-dragon Immortal, please tell my friend and me the place where the demon people are! Though I might not be very powerful, I have the confidence to restore the peace here!"

Upon hearing these words, Water-dragon Immortal was overjoyed and made another few bows to Lyu Liang and Zhu Yan. Then he described the place where the demon people were in detail.

Lyu Liang and Zhu Yan did not waste any time. After understanding the situation, they directly went out of the sect and flew to the target location.

On the way there, Zhu Yan, who did not say anything before, suddenly said to Lu Liang, "Brother Lyu, you must not lose your calm because of anger. I think the words of the Water-dragon Immortal need to be reconsidered."

Listening to Zhu Yan's words, Lyu Liang also calmed down and turned to ask, "What other opinions does brother Zhu have?"

"Nothing much, but I felt weird on some of the things he said. Think about it. The demon people started doing evil a hundred years ago, even if the Wutong Sect did not defeat them at that time, why wait a hundred years to ask for help? The wait time is a bit too long, isn't it?" Zhu Yan frowned and said.

After Lyu Liang heard his words, he was stunned for a moment. Then, he immediately said in admiration, "Brother Zhu's Taoist heart is much more stable than mine. This is really puzzling. After we arrive at the place, we should observe before taking action."

Soon, the two of them reached the place where the demon people were. Sure enough, not far from here was a yellow light curtain visible to the naked eye, inside was a sizeable courtyard-like building.

"Sure enough, this is a protection formation with Demon Qi, and it can also block Divine Sense. Brother Lyu, do you have a way to enter it?" Zhu Yan shook his head and immediately looked at Lyu Liang.

Lyu Liang grinned and communicated with Black. His body moved, and then he entered the Bounded Domain. Subsequently, he began to explore with his Divine Sense. During the exploration, his anger that had subsided was ignited once again!

"There are so many children here!" That was the first thought of Lyu Liang. Under the detection of his Divine Sense, there were at least ten children here! Also, there was also the aura of a human and a demon, and the demon should be the one with cultivation equivalent to the Early-stage of Nascent Soul. The human seemed to only be at the Late-stage of Gold Core.

The moment Lyu Liang entered the large formation, the demon seemed to notice him. When Lyu Liang finished exploration using his Divine Sense, there was already a slim woman wearing a green blouse, emitting the horrible aura of a Demon soldier.

This woman's appearance was beautiful, but now it had a merciless look in her fierce eyes. At this moment, she frowned and looked at Lyu Liang. Obviously, she was puzzled by the fact that Lyu Liang could enter the formation so easily.

"Demon bitch! Give me the kids!" Lyu Liang pressed his anger and said in irritation.

"Hey! Are you the new flunky sent here by the Wutong Sect? Bah, no one can land a finger on the children that Brother Hao and I want to protect! With your strength at the Late-stage of Gold Core? That's not enough!" Before the woman could finish, a blue ribbon appeared in her hand. At the same time, her body moved, and she turned into two identical green-shirt women. Even their aura and cultivation were the same!

Though Lyu Liang was shocked, he didn't have time to think about it. He raised the Ghost Devil Head and went to fight.

Looking at Lyu Liang's cultivation that suddenly burst into the Middle-stage of Nascent Soul, the woman was shocked at first, then she glanced at the house below her and gritted her teeth, moving the blue ribbon against Lyu Liang.

Lyu Liang had a headache the moment they started the fight. Although the woman was a stage lower than him in terms of cultivation, the blue ribbon was waved in all directions and was used both offensively and defensively. This made Lyu Liang a bit helpless.

Lyu Liang used Xuanyuan Swordsmanship and Heart Swordsmanship with normal Primordial Qi, because he was afraid of accidentally injuring the children in the house. Now it seemed that he was unable to do anything to the opponent.

Lyu Liang then gritted his teeth and began to stimulate his Devil Immortal Qi. In an instant, the power of his moves increased by several folds.

The two green-shirt women who attacked and defended were shocked first, then the Demon Qi on her also increased, almost reaching up to the Middle-stage of Demon Soldier Level. At the same time, there were also traces of gold Demon Qi emerging from her head.

"You are actually burning your demon soul! What a big price and strong determination!" Lyu Liang eyes squinted, and suddenly there was an ominous feeling in his heart.

"Taoism peer, look at the green bead hanging below the house at the bottom right side. It is the demon core of this demon. If you destroy it, this formation will be broken! We can then help you too!" Suddenly, the Water-dragon Immortal appeared outside the formation, watching and shouting far away.

Outside the formation, Zhu Yan's figure had disappeared and was replaced by dozens of Wutong Sect disciples wearing yellow clothes.

The duration of the Ghost Devil Head was finishing, leaving Lyu Liang no time to think. Suddenly, he raised the Linghuang Sword Essence and hit towards the insignificant green bead at the top of the roof.

The green-shirt woman was already shocked when she heard Water-dragon Immortal shouting, but it was too late when she wanted to stop Lyu Liang.

"Pa", the bead was broken, and the two green-shirt women screamed at the same time, and quickly merged into one. She fell straight to the ground, looking up at Lyu Liang desperately, her eyes full of despair.

At the same time, a young man in white rushed out of the house and hugged the green-shirt woman frantically, bursting into tears. Behind him, there were more than a dozen children, and they all cried and ran to the green-shirt woman, embracing her tightly.

Lyu Liang was utterly dumbfounded. Why did he suddenly feel that he was the villain? But before he could think about it, a black bag covered him, and he lost his sight.

Lyu Liang was shocked and tried to break open the bag. He suddenly felt dizzy and then dropped down uncontrollably.

After a while, his fall stopped. Lyu Liang shook his head and recovered his consciousness, then he looked around.

Right now, he was in a spacious room. Looking at the furnishings, it seemed to be a prison.

"Alas! Brother Lyu, you are inside too! We were fooled. Wutong Sect was the culprit of all of this!" Suddenly, behind him came the very depressed voice of Zhu Yan.

Lyu Liang turned around hastily and saw Zhu Yan sitting against the wall behind him. There was a red-haired and thin old man beside him, and he looked at Lyu Liang with a sigh.

"Brother Zhu, what is going on here? And this is..." Lyu Liang was perplexed now. He vaguely felt that something was wrong, but he did not have any clue.

"Brother Lyu, this old man is the chief of the Wutong Sect, Fire-dragon Immortal! He knows the whole situation of all this! We were all fooled by the cunning Water-dragon Immortal! That green-shirt woman from the Demon Clan and the man at the Late-stage of Gold Core were the good ones that protected the children from harm! The Wutong Sect is the culprit in the cultivation of blood sacrifices!"

Upon hearing that, Lyu Liang's face turned pale with fright. When he recalled what he had done before, he felt an inexplicable sense of guilt throughout his body.

Immediately, Lyu Liang's eyes turned red, his aura was turned on and ready to break through. However, he was surprised to find that his cultivation was only at the Early-stage of Foundation Establishment!
