Chapter 771: Internal Fighting of the Demon Cult
"Guan Guan Jiujiu, in the river island, a graceful lady, a gentleman likes to fight."

Facing the surprised look of Junior Sister, Su Mingzhe smiled calmly and said:
"The sisters from Xiaozhu Peak are indeed very beautiful. I went to watch them practice sword formations. Isn't that normal?"

Su Mingzhe admitted it calmly and openly, which was in stark contrast to Du Bishu's despicable behavior of making a accusation.

Tian Ling'er immediately looked at her seventh senior brother with envy:
"When will I be able to be so thick-skinned?"

The three chatted and laughed for a while, and then came to the Caomiao outside Caomiao Village to stay the night.

After tying the horse's reins, Du Bishu took the initiative to go hunting.

Tian Ling'er said she was going to collect firewood.

The tasks of lighting a fire, cooking, and cleaning were left to Su Mingzhe.

The Heyang City and Caomiao Village in the novel are both on the sunny side of Qingyun Mountain, that is, the south side.

In this movie dimension, Heyang City is located in the north of Qingyun Mountain, and is separated from Qingyun Mountain by a large river - Hongchuan.

Caomiao Village is on the east side of Qingyun Mountain.

If you want to get to Heyang City from Caomiao Village, you need to ride your horse eastward for more than 60 miles to a wide ferry in Hongchuan, and then take the ferry back to the northwest to reach Heyang City.

All this back and forth may take a whole day.

Today the three of them planned to rest in Cao Miao Village for one night and try to reach Heyang City before sunset tomorrow.

After a while, Du Bishu came back with three rabbits in his hands.

When Du Bishu came back, he saw Su Mingzhe cleaning the house, and asked curiously:
"Where did Junior Sister go to collect firewood? Why hasn't she come back yet?"

"Well, I was just as lazy as you and went to Caomiao Village to buy firewood."

On the way down the mountain, Su Mingzhe taught Du Bishu and Tian Ling'er some tips on life for being lazy.

One of them is to go to nearby farmers to buy things.

As a result, the two men used their skills flexibly, one went to Cao Miao Village to buy rabbits, and the other went to buy firewood.

The two were chatting when they heard Tian Ling'er's grunting sound coming from outside the temple.

When the two ran out of the temple, they saw a mountain of wood slowly floating towards the thatched temple.

"Sixth Brother, Seventh Brother, come and help!"

Tian Ling'er bought too much firewood, so she could only tie it up with her own amber red silk, and then move it to the entrance of the thatched temple bit by bit with great effort.

"Junior Sister, why did you buy so much firewood?"

Du Bishu and Su Mingzhe looked at the towering wood with smiles on their faces, and they were all delighted.

Is this girl planning to buy back all the firewood she used for this training?

"Seventh Senior Brother, didn't you say that a bundle of firewood costs twenty cents in big cities? I just bought firewood in Caomiao Village and asked. They only sell a bundle of firewood for three cents. If we transport their firewood to Heyang City, we can earn seventeen cents per bundle. I bought all the firewood in Caomiao Village, a total of more than six hundred bundles, and I can earn at least ten taels of silver."

Tian Ling'er counted on her fingers, and her clever look immediately made the two senior brothers admire her very much!

"Junior sister, you have such a good business sense. From now on, we two senior brothers will rely on you to take care of us!"

Su Mingzhe and Du Bishu smiled and did not say anything to criticize the little sister. They asked her to put the firewood outside the door and quickly started to make a fire and cook.

After a night.

The next morning.

When the three of them were about to set off, Su Mingzhe waved his hand and helped Tian Ling'er collect the mountain of firewood.

This kind of magic is called Dongtian Technique, and it is a magic that only the masters of the Qingyun Sect who have reached the Shangqing Realm can learn.

The Cave Heaven Technique is a technique similar to the 'Universe in the Sleeve', which requires magical power to be maintained at all times so as not to dissipate.

Because it consumes too much mana, it is difficult to practice this kind of magical power without the cultivation of the Upper Pure Realm.

Therefore, when Du Bishu and Tian Ling'er saw Su Mingzhe performing this cave-sky technique, their eyes suddenly widened with greed.

Set off again.

The three of them didn't waste any more time and stopped to enjoy the scenery.

We galloped all the way until noon.

The three of them rushed to the ferry first, but because they missed the time, there was no ferry that day.

Su Mingzhe was also in a hurry to get to Heyang City, so he simply let his junior sister and Du Bishu sit on the horseback. He waved his hand, grabbed three tall horses, and flew directly to the other side.

Both sides of Hongcheon are mostly high mountains and steep cliffs, with rapid and dangerous waters.

Only the ferry crossing is relatively flat, but its width is extremely astonishing, at least seven or eight miles wide.

Fortunately, as a master of Shangqing Realm, Su Mingzhe has powerful magic power. With the help of the "shoot" spell, he can easily move thousands of pounds of cargo and escape hundreds of miles away.

A mere flood river is a natural barrier for ordinary people, but for Su Mingzhe, he can get across it by just twisting his waist.

After a while, Su Mingzhe put the two men and three horses on the official road north of Hongchuan and said in a calm tone:
"Let's continue our journey. If we don't hurry up, we won't be able to reach Heyang City by night!"

"Let's go!"

Du Bishu was just grabbed by Su Mingzhe with a huge hand full of energy, and he didn't even have the strength to struggle.

As brothers, there was such a huge gap between them, which caused him to suffer a psychological blow!
The three of them hurried along the way, turned a corner, and finally arrived at the Shili Pavilion in the east of Heyang City before the sun set. Tian Linger was galloping, preparing to enter the city before the city gate closed, when she suddenly heard the seventh brother shouting behind her:

"Junior sister, come back!"

Su Mingzhe originally told Du Bishu to stay in the hotel after entering Heyang City and not to go to the gambling house.

Suddenly he smelled a hint of blood in the air. His brows furrowed immediately, and he flew to the head of Tian Ling'er's horse, looking forward with sharp eyes.

"Seventh Brother, what's wrong?"

Although Tian Ling'er was young, she was very well-behaved and sensible. When she saw the attitude of her seventh senior brother, she quickly pulled the reins.

"It seems there are two groups of demons fighting each other ahead!"

Su Mingzhe did not expect that the three of them were so lucky that they encountered an internal fight among the Demon Cult before they even arrived in Heyang City.

"Brother, how do you know that it was an internal fight among the demon sect?"

Tian Ling'er and Du Bishu's faces were both shocked, but they couldn't believe it.

After all, this place is too close to Qingyun Gate, only three hundred miles away.

The people in the Demonic Cult are fighting among themselves here. Isn't this disrespecting the Qingyun Sect?
Su Mingzhe explained to the two of them:
"One group of people is wrapped in bloody evil spirits, they should be from the Demon Cult's Blood Refining Hall. The other group is full of gloomy aura and ghostly fire, they should be from the Demon Cult's Ghost King Sect. Although both parties belong to the Demon Cult, they have always been at odds with each other, so it is not uncommon for them to fight!"

After hearing this, Du Bishu asked somewhat unwillingly:

"Seventh Brother, this is Heyang City, only 300 miles away from our Qingyun Sect. If the people of the Demon Sect want to fight among themselves, they should fight in their headquarters. Why do they come to our Qingyun Sect to fight among themselves?"

"You shouldn't ask me this question. If you want to ask it, go ask these evil cult monsters!"

As Su Mingzhe spoke, he took the two of them and flew backwards, ready to avoid the internal fighting within the Demon Cult.

In the eyes of Tian Ling'er and Du Bishu, his clone only had the cultivation level of Upper Purity Realm.

Now both the Blood Refining Hall and the Ghost King Sect have large numbers of people and power. Any few masters coming over might force him to show his strength.

In order to hide his incompetence, Su Mingzhe decided to retreat temporarily.

At the same time, in order to avoid sneak attacks from the Demon Cult, Su Mingzhe did not forget to cast two solid golden light spells on Du Bishu and Tian Ling'er.

A group of demons who were ambushing on the roadside saw that the three men were unwilling to move forward into the ambush circle, so they jumped a few times and landed near the three men, shouting:

"You little brat from Qingyun Sect, now that you're here, don't even think about leaving!"

At this time, Tian Ling'er and Du Bishu also smelled the blood on each other:

"It turns out they are from the Blood Refining Hall!"

"Brother, sister, don't move, leave these demon cubs to me!"

Seeing that the other side were just a group of minions, Su Mingzhe did not waste time with them and directly drove the Meteor Cone towards them.

The Meteor Cone was originally the magic weapon of the former abbot of Dazhu Peak. It was not only extremely sharp, but also incredibly fast, and was classified as a top-grade magic weapon.

Su Mingzhe acted decisively and ruthlessly without any hesitation.

I saw a black star flash quickly in the sky!
"Dangdangdangdang..."

After a burst of sudden metal knocking sounds!

A dozen or so minions from the Blood Refining Hall wanted to make some noise and sign up or something.

As a result, when the meteor cones came, they didn't even have time to react and were directly strung together by the meteor cones!
The masters of the Blood Refining Hall who were confronting the Ghost King Sect in the distance could not help but tremble when they saw their disciples being easily defeated:
"This young man is so young, yet so decisive in killing. Could he be Qi Hao, one of the two Qingyun heroes?"

Recently, the Qingyun Sect has had two new geniuses emerge, causing heavy losses to the Demon Sect.

The first one is the disciple of Qingyun Sect’s leader Daoxuan, named Xiao Yicai, who won the first place in the Seven Clans Martial Arts Competition more than 50 years ago.

Xiao Yicai's strength is comparable to that of the elders of the Demon Cult. More than fifty years ago, he selected many branches of the Demon Cult.

In recent years, Xiao Yicai has been elusive and rarely shows up. It seems that there has been no news for more than ten years.

The news that the Demon Cult received was that Xiao Yicai was practicing in seclusion, preparing to break through to the Shangqing realm.

Another outstanding talent in the Qingyun Sect is a disciple of Cangsong, the abbot of Longshou Peak. His name is Qi Hao. He was also the runner-up in the last Seven Clans Martial Arts Competition.

Qi Hao rarely shows up in public, but his battle record is quite amazing, having killed many powerful fighters from the Demon Cult.

Now, Su Mingzhe took action and easily dealt with more than a dozen minions, which made people mistakenly think that he was Qi Hao.

"Ye Gou, Zhou Cai, take your men over there and ask the people from Qingyun Sect to leave!"

Although the elder boss of the Blood Refining Hall is ambitious, his strength is average.

Seeing that Su Mingzhe was very powerful and that the area nearby was the territory of Qingyun Sect, he decided to keep quiet.

The more important reason was that he wanted to drive Su Mingzhe and the other two away first, so as not to delay his capture of the Ghost King Sect's leader's wife.

"Master, I can lead the people there myself. Let Taoist Wild Dog stay here to prevent the Ghost King Sect's people from running away!"

Zhou Chang, also known as Xiao Yicai, secretly breathed a sigh of relief when he knew that Boss Nian had no intention of killing Su Mingzhe and the other two.

He brought his men to Su Mingzhe and the other two, took a closer look, and was somewhat doubtful:

"I was wrong just now. Although this young man also has sharp eyebrows and bright eyes, and is elegant and extraordinary, he is not Junior Brother Qi Hao!"
