Chapter 510: Chapter 512: Barbarian Demon Lord
“Kill them fiercely for me. I want the Sword Sect’s dogs to return and see the blood-red ground, to see bodies littering the mountains, and regret ever making an enemy of our Summoning Demon Sect!” Demon Lord Lujiang declared.
There were only about a hundred Sword Masters in the Sword Manor, but there were far more people inside the manor than that.
The families of some Sword Masters, some outer sect disciples who did odd jobs, and many sword apprentices who had just joined within the last few years, aged between ten and sixteen. All counted, there were at least a thousand or two.
No wonder Ming Xiu and the other Sword Masters who stayed behind were resolutely unwilling to flee. If they didn’t buy time, these people wouldn’t even have a chance to escape; they would be slaughtered clean in an instant!
“There’s no need to kill the innocent indiscriminately, at least leave a way out for the families, apprentices, and servants!” Ye Youying, seeing that she could not dissuade him, thus tried to plea for mercy for these people.
“Not even one who can see shall be spared!” Demon Lord Lujiang huffed coldly.
To instill fear, one must cause pain. Demon Lord Lujiang had come with only one purpose: a massacre!
Ye Youying looked at Lujiang and felt that this familiar person had completely changed. His mind seemed to be controlled by some wicked evil, completely unwilling to listen to anything anyone else said.
While powers would indeed fight and even utterly destroy each other, the fundamental difference from the Demon Sect’s methods was never to vent anger on the weak and frail, nor to engage in a massacre!
It was hopeless!!
Moreover, after this massacre, it was impossible for the Summoning Demon Sect to ever return to righteousness. No matter what efforts she made in the future, she could not erase the sin of the Summoning Demon Sect’s actions today!
The demonic beasts were pouring in mightily, the forests trembling under their trampling.
A group of Sword Masters clad in white were desperately resisting, but it didn’t take long before their pitiful cries could be heard. Even those with Monarch Level cultivation were torn to shreds by the demonic beasts and discarded without a care…
Among the Sword Masters who stayed behind, there were indeed some strong ones who could take on ten at a time. However, the numbers of the Summoning Demon Sect were simply too great. Their demonic beasts kept streaming in endlessly, and soon formed an overwhelming army that was steamrolling over Long Valley!
With such a huge number of demonic beasts storming the sect, it was doubtful that the families, apprentices, and servants would manage to escape by dispersing, given the beasts’ acute sense of smell over the mountains and plains!
…
“There’s a group of Summoning Demon Masters guarding the back mountain. They’re killing on sight; from the very beginning, they wanted to completely eradicate us,” Zhong Lin said, his face covered in blood, as he ran back, gasping for air.
“What about Leader Lei?” Ming Xiu asked.
“The disciple… the disciple saw Leader Lei flying away alone from the west,” a Sword Manor disciple said.
Ming Xiu and Zhong Lin’s faces were filled with shock.
Leader Lei had actually fled in the midst of battle. He had abandoned the vast Sword Manor!!
This meant they couldn’t even buy time for those families and apprentices to escape through the secret passage in the back mountain. Without Leader Lei, they had only a few people here capable of withstanding a Demon Lord!
“Brother Zhu, with your strength, you should be able to cut your way out. We have inadvertently dragged you into this mess, and we deeply apologize,” Zhong Lin said listlessly as he glanced at Zhu Minglang standing on the mountain platform.
“`
“Let our families and apprentices take shelter in the Spirit Stone Cave first. Don’t scatter and run; that will only lead to pointless deaths,” Zhu Minglang told Zhong Lin.
“But hiding there, won’t we just be buried alive by thousands?” Zhong Lin’s eyes were bloodshot.
“Don’t worry, I can protect you,” Zhu Minglang assured.
“How can you protect us, alone and by yourself? Even if you possess a high realm, you cannot possibly stop the entire Summoning Demon Sect!” Zhong Lin exclaimed.
“Rest assured, I have help,” Zhu Minglang said.
Having said that, Zhu Minglang’s gaze fell upon the demonic army that surged like a reversal of a mountain torrent, slowly extending a hand.
“Whoosh!!!”
A Crimson Ancient Sword burst forth from the void, its blade streaming with divine, fierce radiance. The glow it cast was akin to the Sun Crown, showcasing both Spiritual Rhyme and the aura of immortals!
The sword hung in front of Zhu Minglang, who did not grasp it in his hand.
His own Sword Intent had reached a certain maturity with the Flying Sword. If he resorted to Sword Awakening under every circumstance, even if he absorbed the Divine Veins and spiritual essences from all over the world, it would not be enough for his use.
Moreover, the Sword Spirit Dragon’s current Cultivation Base was not low!
“Who dares stand upon that plateau? State your name, for I do not enjoy slaying the nameless!” At that moment, a wild and burly Demon Lord with twisted beard and hair roared.
In the freezing cold, this man was merely wrapped in an animal hide garment, with most of his chest exposed. His skin was dark blue, marked with crooked, fresh-red Curse Charms, giving him the appearance of a tribal chief who lived on raw flesh and blood.
“I am indeed a nameless person, but I advise you not to advance any further, for the sword is blind!” Zhu Minglang couldn’t be bothered to give his name.
“Hahaha, a young member of the Sword Sect, who has learned but a fraction and glimpsed some Sword Territory, dares to show off in front of me? Considering your fair and handsome appearance, you should make a delicious side dish for my drink!” the Barbarian Demon Savage roared. He was enveloped in an incredibly powerful Demonic Qi, and behind the savage Demon Lord, an Ancient Bull emerged like the demon god of the night, towering and majestic!
Demon Possession!
Some Summoning Demon Masters crazily tempered their bodies and even soaked themselves in pools of demonic insects and maggots, turning their bodies into those of demons. Then they summoned Ancient Demons to possess their bodies, giving these mortal vessels the might of the ancient evil, immense strength, and the ability to wield ancient demonic arts!!
“Invoking Demon Possession? Have you invoked the Bull Demon King??” Zhu Minglang was genuinely startled. The Barbarian Demon Savage had transformed from a rough and rugged man to a bull demon in an instant. If only he had a nose ring, he would be fit for plowing fields!
“Do not be impudent. This is none other than the Immortal Monarch Bull. You mere worms and ants can either look up and submit or obediently await your death!!” the Barbarian Demon Savage bellowed, and the earth shook.
Demon Beasts swarmed the forest and Long Valley, but the Bull Demon Lord stood out like a crane amongst chickens. His Demonic Qi-wrapped horns could rival an ancient bell in size, and a Summoning Demon Master like him could slaughter all the Sword Masters of the Sword Manor single-handedly.
“The sword emerges from the East!”
Utilizing his hand to control the sword and merging his thoughts with it, Zhu Minglang suddenly pointed towards the Bull Demon Lord. The Sword Spirit Dragon, which had been suspended in midair, shot out instantly like the pale light of dawn where night meets the morning—a sword without shadow or blinding brightness. Yet, its momentum pierced through heaven and earth, profoundly stirring the heart!
As the sword swept past, the Barbarian Demon Savage was protected by a surge of Demonic Qi. The Demon Lord reacted swiftly, shielding his chest with burly arms as strong as bronze and iron. But when the Sword Stab struck him, it suddenly erupted with endless red radiance of Sword Qi, dazzling and splendid like the dawn sky set ablaze!!
