Chapter 49 Asking the Young Master to Come Out The sturdy man's name is Zuo Qiu. He is in a very good mood at the moment. It has not been long since he arrived here, and he will have something to gain. If he were at the headquarters, he would not have the chance to encounter such a thing. He sat on a big rock, watching the people busying themselves below, with a ghost-head sword placed beside him, a roast chicken in his left hand, and a jar of wine in his right hand. He smelled the bloody smell in the cave and tasted the sweetness of the meat and the wine. After an incense stick of time had passed, an altar had been set up in the underground cave, and a pool ten feet wide had been dug in front of the altar. The leader of the Red Dragon Sect, Si Zhiyu, took action personally and carved an altar array pattern on the ground with the sword in his hand. Zuo Qiu looked at it for a while, then threw the roast chicken and wine aside, kicked Si Zhiyu aside, and cursed: "What did you carve? No wonder it was destroyed by the joint efforts of good and evil. This formation opens the passage to the Demon Realm, and the demonic energy leaks out. It just releases some demons and beasts. What use is it to me? Altar, do you know what an altar is? It is used to sacrifice to the powerful in the Demon Realm, using their power to condense the demonic energy and transform it into a demon pill." The leader of the Red Dragon Sect suppressed his anger and smiled apologetically: "This formation is what the sect has passed down." "Get out of the way, jerk. I'll do it myself." "It is because I am old and stupid, please, sir." Zuo Qiu cursed and stretched out his hand in the air, and a long sword came into his hand. With a rustling sound, he carved a magic circle in no time.
Si Zhiyu stared closely and memorized the magic circle in his mind. "Pour all the blood in here!" At a command, several large buckets filled with blood were poured into the pool, and the bloody smell filled the entire cave. A red statue with a dragon head and a human body was placed on the altar. As several jade stones were placed into the array base and true Qi was injected, the array was immediately activated. The blood pool rolled as if it was boiling, and red mist rose up, wrapping around and pouring into the red statue with a dragon head and a human body. In an instant, the red statue shone brightly, and red light shone from its eyes, which just fell on the seal of the demonic realm here. The seal between the two worlds, like an iron gate, was instantly penetrated by this mysterious force. The rolling demonic energy followed the two red lights into this world, gathered in front of the statue, formed a vortex, and gradually condensed. Zuo Qiu showed a look of joy, and he knew from the scene before him that the matter was accomplished. After a stick of incense had passed, all the blood in the blood pool disappeared. Zuo Qiu looked at the black round pill condensed in front of the statue, frowned slightly, and suddenly the ghost-head knife on his shoulder flashed. Guan Zhao, the North Heavenly King and one of the Eight Heavenly Kings of the Red Dragon Sect, a powerful warrior of the eighth level of Zhenwu, only had time to feel his heart tighten, and before he could even react, his head had already flown off his neck. The blood spurted out of the body and quickly sank into the red statue. The Yuandan condensed from the demonic energy suddenly emitted a white light, and the original dark color gradually faded away. At this time, the other members of the Red Dragon Sect nearby realized what was happening, and they all stepped back several steps and drew their weapons. The Red Dragon Sect Leader Si Zhiyu's anger flashed across his face, and then he said in a deep voice: "Don't panic, everyone. This Guan Zhao is originally a member of the imperial court, and has been lurking for a long time. Today, Your Excellency is just cleaning up the mess." Zuo Qiu smiled carelessly: "Don't worry, you are useful to me, I won't act rashly, I was just a little short of the right timing just now, otherwise, this Holy Demon Pill would have been wasted." The blood and energy completely disappeared, the red statue returned to its normal state, and the demonic energy also gathered into the pill.
The pill also revealed its true appearance. Black and white light intertwined and flowed slowly on the surface of the pill. It was obvious at a glance that it was extraordinary. Zuoqiu stretched out his hand to take it, a trace of greed flashed in his eyes, and finally he put it into a fist-sized jade gourd. He then said, "This place can no longer be used in the next few years. Is there any other place in Daqian that has such a demon seal?" "As far as I know, apart from here, there are five other such seals. One is inside Lingxu Gate, one is in the waters of Qihe River in Nanyan Road, one is in Taiwu Mountain in the east of Daqian, and the other two are near the royal capital. One is the headquarters of the Demon Suppression Bureau, and one is at the foot of Beiquan Mountain." "Where's the nearest place?" "The waters of the Qi River in Nanyan Road, and the next is Lingxu Gate." "It's better not to touch Lingxu Sect. They are not that simple." "Then it can only be near the capital." Zuo Qiu's eyes showed a hint of excitement. "Then let's go to Nanyan Road first, and then go to the capital of Daqian Kingdom. I am also very interested in Gu Yuanqing. If we use the blood of the Grandmaster for sacrifice, the quality of the Holy Demon Pill will be better." …… "Your Majesty, more than a thousand people, including the commander Pang Shishan, were killed in the Shuntian Prefecture Demon Suppression Division. All the blood was lost, and the murderer is nowhere to be found. However, judging from the traces of sacrifice left in the cave, it must have been done by the Red Dragon Cult. But the strange thing is that there is no problem with the seal, and there is no trace of any demonic energy at the scene." …… "Your Majesty, in the headquarters of the Demon Suppression Division of Nanyan Dao, Commander Qi Tinghua and two thousand soldiers of the Demon Suppression Division were all killed in the battle. The scene was the same as that of Shuntian Prefecture. Tiance Prefecture has found traces of the Red Dragon Cult, but no one who goes there to test it will survive." …… "Your Majesty, the Governor of Nanyan Road, Lord Tong, led his troops to surround and kill the Red Dragon Sect members. Unfortunately, he died in battle, and 30,000 soldiers died for their country! There are masters above the Grandmaster in the Red Dragon Sect, and judging from the direction he is heading, he should be heading for the capital." A series of bad news kept coming, and Li Haotian could no longer hold back his temper. He said angrily: "Above the Grandmaster, and above the Grandmaster again? How could such a person suddenly appear in the Red Dragon Sect? I don't care what method you use, you must find out who this person is within three days!" "The minister obeys the order!" Wait for everyone to leave. Xu Lianying then slowly spoke: "Your Majesty, I'm afraid there will be some trouble this time." Li Haotian snorted coldly: "Trouble? If that person really thinks that he can ignore the laws of our Daqian Kingdom and come and go freely in our Daqian Kingdom with his cultivation above the Grandmaster level, then he has made a wrong calculation." "Your Majesty, you want to..." "That's right. Just in case, Oban, go ask Uncle Qing to come over." …… Such a big commotion naturally could not be covered up, and it didn't take long for the news to spread throughout Daqian. The Red Dragon Cult, which was once like a rat crossing the street, suddenly appeared openly and killed tens of thousands of imperial soldiers. "Have you heard that the Spirit Ape Sword Sect was destroyed by the Red Dragon Sect? None of its disciples escaped, and its base was razed to the ground." "This time, both the martial arts world and the imperial court have experienced a major incident. Now on the road from Nanyan Road to the capital, I heard that many sects that participated in the suppression of the Red Dragon Cult have fled overnight." "I heard that the imperial court has sent people to invite all the major sects to gather in the capital to fight the enemy together." "The Red Dragon Cult has been killing innocent people and wreaking havoc on the world. They are the public enemy of good and evil. I'm afraid this will be another fierce battle."
The Red Dragon Cult was full of evil, and had deeply rooted in people's hearts. Back then, hundreds of miles of land had fallen into the abyss of demons. People in the capital were in a panic, and many people could not help but flee to avoid the danger. Even though Gu Yuanqing was in the mountains, he heard the news. Hearing that so many people were brutally killed and massacred, he couldn't help but feel angry. That afternoon, the deputy commander of the Eagle Guards at the foot of the mountain came to the front of Beiquan Mountain Courtyard, knelt on the ground like pushing a golden mountain and overturning a jade pillar, and said in a deep voice: "Please come out of the mountain and save our Daqian from the water and fire!"
