Chapter 149: Sacrifice (Subscription Required)

"How?"

Zhang Yuqing looked at Xu Hong.

Xu Hong pondered for a moment, looked at the object in his hand, and said: "Okay, but we still have to plan it. We can't let the sect know that this is premeditated..."

Zhang Yuqing saw Xu Hong agreed, and laughed: "Don't worry, I will cooperate with you... I won't let Qingling Sect find out about you and me..."

Xu Hong and Zhang Yuqing soon discussed, for example, the patrol team's casual cultivators can collect souls at will, but the number of people in the Demon Subduing Hall must be controlled, and not too many people can die. Zhang Yuqing felt that it was inappropriate. In this way, wouldn't his disciples in the Yinhun Sect have to stand and be beaten, and be tied up? In the end, Xu Hong set the number of deaths in the Demon Subduing Hall to five.

"Only five disciples of the Demon Subduing Hall can die. If you can't do this, you can return this thing to you..." Xu Hong said, and he was about to return the thing in his hand to Zhang Yuqing.

Seeing this, Zhang Yuqing knew that this was Xu Hong's bottom line, so he stretched out his hand and pushed it over, saying, "Okay, I'll do as you say."

Xu Hong breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Zhang Daoyou also needs to understand me. No matter how many casual cultivators die, the sect will only say that I am not good at defending, so I will just let them go with care. But the disciples of the Demon Subduing Hall are under the command of Senior Brother Qin. If there are too many casualties, it will not only be me who will be in trouble. With Senior Brother Qin's temper, isn't Zhang Daoyou afraid of trouble?..."

Hearing the three words "Senior Brother Qin", Zhang Yuqing's face suddenly darkened, and he said bitterly, "Sooner or later, I will avenge that sword..."

Xu Hong sneered Without giving Zhang Yuqing any face, he said, "Fellow Daoist Zhang, I'm not looking down on you, Senior Brother Qin, but you are about to break through the Golden Core. You are not qualified to seek revenge on Senior Brother Qin..."

"Unless your senior brother comes, he can compete with Senior Brother Qin. By the way, I seem to have heard that five years ago, your senior brother was defeated by Pei Qing of Wuquan Mountain and almost died?"

After hearing Xu Hong's words, Zhang Yuqing stood up suddenly and said, "Fellow Daoist Xu, if my senior brother was in front of you, would you dare to say this to him? Humph, goodbye, don't forget what happened tonight."

Xu Hong watched Zhang Yuqing leave, and then sneered.

After sensing that Zhang Yuqing's breath had completely left, Xu Hong set his sights on the things in his hand. After weighing the pros and cons, he decided that the things in his hand would be more profitable than the casual cultivator who died in the three streets and was held accountable by the sect.

This is why Xu Hong agreed to Zhang Yuqing's conditions.

"However, we still need to make some arrangements. Although Zhang Yuqing and I had once faced life and death together, that was a last resort. He would definitely not have any intentions if he could not live without me. But this time, it is different from before..."

"After all, he is a demon..."

Thinking like this, Xu Hong immediately made arrangements for tonight's action.

...

After Wu Tao finished refining the Yinhun Banner, he began to practice with the Purple Spirit Pill. He practiced until dark, then he stopped practicing.

"Another day is coming."

"I hope nothing will happen on this day..."

Wu Tao said to himself while looking at the floor.

As soon as he finished speaking, he heard a roar that resounded throughout the East City. Even if he had opened the soundproof and anti-peeping magic circle in his hut, it was useless and penetrated by the roar.

"Zhang Yuqing, you are so brave that you dare to come to the Xiuxian City under my Qingling Sect to sacrifice and refine the Yinhun."

The only one who can break through the soundproof and anti-peeping magic circle is a foundation-building cultivator.

Combined with the words of the foundation-building cultivator just now, Wu Tao's heart sank completely. The worst situation he had anticipated really happened.

The Yinhun Sect wanted to use the East City's casual cultivators to sacrifice the Yinhun.

"Xu Hong, do I have to ask your Qingling Sect before I do anything for the Yinhun Sect... Haha, let's see what you can do to me?"

A rampant voice also resounded in East City.

"The foundation-building cultivator of the Yinhun Sect, the Xu Hong he mentioned should be the person who just spoke, the foundation-building cultivator of the Qingling Sect guarding East City."

Wu Tao's eyes flashed, and he immediately got up from the futon.

"I can't stay here any longer. According to the situation, there will be a battle between the foundation-building cultivators of the Yinhun Sect and the foundation-building cultivators of the Qingling Sect. This is the best time for me to leave East City."

Wu Tao had already anticipated this worst situation, so when this situation came, he did not panic, but quickly put away the soundproof anti-peeping formation and the three-pole water and fire sword formation, and immediately went out.

As soon as he went out, a ghost rushed towards him, a first-level intermediate ghost, not very strong.

He quickly woke up the soul-eating insects that were sleeping and advancing, and told them to stop advancing and leave the city first.

The soul-eating insects immediately woke up, flew out of his mind, and immediately entered the invisible state, silently devouring this intermediate ghost.

Wu Tao looked around and saw ghosts floating everywhere in the shantytown, but they were not strong, and screams were heard everywhere.

He looked up and saw that above the street guarded by the foundation-building cultivators of the Qingling Sect, there were occasional explosions of fighting sounds, and the scolding of two foundation-building cultivators.

And the three streets in front of the shantytown were filled with fighting sounds.

Ghosts flew everywhere, devouring the casual cultivators they saw.

The whole East City seemed to be in chaos at this moment.

Wu Tao immediately headed towards the city gate. He had to cross three streets first. Once he left the shantytown, he saw disciples of the Yinhun Sect fighting with the Fumo Hall and the patrol cultivators above the three streets.

In the center of the battle circle, a disciple of the Yinhun Sect had a Yinhun Banner floating in front of him. One after another, Yinhun flew out of the Banner and rushed towards the casual cultivators three streets below.

Once a casual cultivator is possessed by a ghost, his soul will be dragged out by the ghost and then be refined into a ghost.

Wu Tao's eyes fixed, and he thought: "The cultivator of the Ghost Sect wants to advance the Ghost Banner to the second level."

He had refined the Ghost Banner before, so he knew the conditions for the advancement of the Ghost Banner.

The casual cultivators on the three streets began to run for their lives.

Wu Tao didn't look any more and left immediately.

"Bang!"

As soon as Wu Tao turned the corner, a figure fell in front of him. It was a cultivator from the patrol team who was being entangled by a first-level high-level ghost. When he saw Wu Tao, he seemed to have grabbed a life-saving straw and shouted: "Daoyou, save me!"

Wu Tao glanced at him, but he didn't stop in the end. The situation was so chaotic, and there was also a foundation-building battle. He didn't have time to save people. Saving others would be irresponsible to himself.

"Daoyou, help!"

Wu Tao did not look back, but still activated all the remaining eight evil-breaking talismans on his body, threw them back, and flew all towards the ghost, and then his figure disappeared in the street.

As for the immortal cultivators in the patrol team, whether they can seize this opportunity to save themselves is not what Wu Tao is worried about.

"Call for reinforcements, call for reinforcements!"

Wu Tao heard the immortal cultivators in the patrol team shouting.

A talisman with light soared into the sky and exploded in the night sky.
