Attaining Immortality, Starting From Slaying Demons

Chapter 275: 275 Chapter Qingfeng Zhenren_1

“`

Under everyone’s watchful eyes,

Shen Yi seemed as though he hadn’t heard Yu Yuehu’s warning and strode directly into the Teleportation Array.

Seeing this, the several Primordial Grandmasters hesitated briefly before rapidly following him.

The image of the young man in the ink-black robe effortlessly battling three Upper Realm Demon Kings was still vivid in people’s minds.

Besides strength, his background was presumably extraordinary as well.

Perhaps he wasn’t necessarily afraid of the Mysterious Light Cave.

With Zhang Chenlin’s arrogant nature, a battle with this senior would be unavoidable sooner or later.

With the senior leading the way, even if they themselves intervened, could the Mysterious Light Cave remember all of them?

One by one, figures vanished into the Array.

The brilliance of the Array became increasingly dim.

All the Primordial Grandmasters summoned their Dao Infants, preparing for combat.

The next moment, a large group of figures appeared before their eyes.

Dozens of people from the Eight Directions Food Pavilion gathered outside the cave dwelling, led by none other than Miss Mei, and in front of her was a burly old man with a thick neck, wearing greasy robes, holding a smoking pipe in his calloused hands.

Seeing this, Yu Yuehu’s tension unconsciously eased.

The Eight Directions Food Pavilion stepping in probably meant that they intended to mediate with the Mysterious Light Cave.

But they usually didn’t involve themselves in other people’s affairs, so what was different today?

In the midst of his confusion, Yu Yuehu quickly found Zhang Chenlin’s figure, and his pupils shrank immediately.

The reason he hadn’t noticed him at first glance

Was because the haughty disciple of Mysterious Light Cave was now bowing deeply, resembling the servant by the side of a wealthy family.

Arrogant before but respectful now, it was quite the farce.

By Zhang Chenlin’s side,

Stood a young boy with a naive face, standing with hands hanging down, his hair bundled up, dressed in a simple long shirt, with cloth shoes on his feet.

Indeed, he had red lips and white teeth, and his face was slightly round.

Upon seeing him, even the Primordial Grandmasters who had just emerged from the Array hurried to sheathe their weapons and bowed together: “We pay respect to Qingfeng Zhenren.”

Yu Yuehu, unable to bow due to carrying his older brother, lowered his head as a form of respect.

No wonder people from the Eight Directions Food Pavilion had come out.

It turned out a true man from Wutong Mountain had arrived.

Though Qingfeng Zhenren is the youngest among the twelve disciples of Wutong Mountain, his strength is comparable to at least the top twenty Demon Emperors from the Thousand Demon Cave.

He is undoubtedly a figure of great importance!

“You are too kind,”

Qingfeng Zhenren nodded slightly, then looked around at the crowd: “Have you encountered any demons inside?”

“I’ve been guarding here the whole time…” Zhang Chenlin started to explain, raising his head, but the boy merely glanced at him, prompting him to quickly shut his mouth.

“Reporting to Qingfeng Zhenren, we have seen them!”

Before anyone else could speak, Yu Yuehu suppressed the anger in his heart and tried to maintain his composure.

“From the Thousand Demon Cave?” the boy raised his eyelids.

Those Primordial Grandmasters all responded: “Indeed, there was the Golden Blade Demon King, the Black Wind Demon King, and also…”

“You’re talking nonsense!”

Zhang Chenlin angrily clenched his teeth and turned with a ferocious expression: “How come I didn’t see any demons, and moreover, my uncle is still inside! With your mere skills, if you really encountered those Demon Kings, could you have come out alive?”

At his words, the faces of several Primordial Grandmasters grew cold.

But unanimously, they ignored the matter with Zheng Zisheng: “We truly are no match for the Demon Kings, but we were saved by a senior’s intervention, and it’s not your concern.”

Their attack on Zheng Zisheng earlier was now conveniently shifted onto the demons.@@novelbin@@

Qingfeng Zhenren observed the Teleportation Array fading away at a visible pace, with no further figures stepping out.

He then took another look at the young man in the ink-black robe at the forefront of the crowd.

The senior they spoke of could be guessed from their arrangement.

Consequently, he patted Zhang Chenlin on the shoulder and spoke indifferently, “Stay strong in your time of loss.”

“You shut…”

“`

Zhang Chenlin subconsciously wanted to curse back, but his body trembled slightly, and then he slapped himself, explaining, “Please calm your anger, True Man. I’m just too worried about my uncle-master.”

“It’s alright, I was the one who arrived late,” Qingfeng Zhenren remarked.

The young man withdrew his hand, shook his head, and turned to walk towards the Eight Directions Food Pavilion.

His simple action, however, surprised everyone else.

Did that mean… could it be that the Thousand Demon Cave had ambushed Master Zhang in his own dwelling, and succeeded?!

A’Qing and Chen Zhong, of course, knew that wasn’t what the crowd was thinking.

But, at the moment, they were all eyes to nose, nose to heart.

Simply standing by and watching Zhang Mingyang’s fall was reason enough for the Mysterious Light Cave to demand their lives, not to mention that the Xu Family and Great Qian already had issues with the Mysterious Light Cave.

“Qingfeng Zhenren!”

Zhang Chenlin suddenly called out to him, “Could you tell me who it was?”

The young man halted, pondered for a moment, and said uncertainly, “White Feathered Demon Emperor?”

“But why…”

Zhang Chenlin staggered slightly, as if he could barely stand.

The fall of a Transcendent Spirit True Man was, even for the Mysterious Light Cave, an unbearable loss.

“Uh.”

The young man turned back, masking the awkwardness in his eyes, “I’m not quite sure.”

Upon hearing this, Miss Mei and the old man unconsciously averted their gazes.

Why?

Because the ingredients brought by Senior Nie originated from the nineteenth cave of the Thousand Demon Cave, ruled by the Blood Transforming Demon Emperor.

Such a disaster would force every force to shut their doors and hide away.

They could almost imagine the raging Thousand Demon Cave and the number of lives that would need to be paid as a price to quell their fury.

For the others, it was not so bad; the Eight Directions Food Pavilion, Great Qian, and Mysterious Light Cave were definitively not going to escape responsibility—the former as the chef, the latter as allies.

Wutong Mountain had only twelve disciples, each more formidable than the last.

Nie Jun would naturally not fear any retaliation. Given his personality, should any issue arise with the Eight Directions Food Pavilion or their allied forces, he could simply take his revenge later.

Fortunately, Qingfeng Zhenren had some compassion, solving his fellow sect members’ problems across the land.

With that in mind, Mei Xiyao quietly glanced towards the crowd.

Many had gone in, but fewer than half had come out, and even the Primordial Grandmasters had suffered severe casualties.

She had previously noticed the youth in black robes at the forefront of the crowd.

No wonder he had spoken so confidently upon leaving.

It turned out he was a powerful being with real skills at his disposal.

“If you don’t mind, I invite you all to rest for a while at my Eight Directions Food Pavilion, where we have prepared fine dishes for your enjoyment,” Miss Mei’s crisp, pleasant voice rang out.

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

At least in front of Qingfeng Zhenren, it seemed that Zhang Chenlin would dare not bring up searching his person again. Seeing his pale face, they felt quite relieved.

He deserved it!

“…”

Shen Yi listened quietly and was also satisfied with the outcome.

Not that he found the Ultimate Realm Primordial Grandmaster from the Mysterious Light Cave troublesome; after the Nine Demon Transformation Technique was enhanced again, as long as he didn’t encounter some unorthodox methods beyond his understanding,

A head-on confrontation,

In the Primordial Realm, he should be considered a first-rate existence.

But there was always a difference between being inside the cave dwelling and outside.

Outside, there were too many eyes and varying thoughts.

It was best not to waste the precious Incense Willpower on needless grudges; compared to demons, the cost-effectiveness of slaying cultivators was just too low.

Moreover, considering the foundation of the Mysterious Light Cave,

If they truly focused all their efforts against him, that would be real trouble.
