The Demon God Emperor
Ch. 268 - Fear Mou Li
"REally..?"
At this moment, Qing Shan stopped smiling and closed his eyes. As his eyes opened, his entire body changed as if it was a thousand-year-old unfliquefied ice.
His gaze became ice-cold, while a mysterious black pattern slowly covered his left face. There was also a burning killing intent within his jet-black eyes.
A powerful imposing aura like that possessed by a Soul Realm cultivator appeared all over his body. His Sword Soul also exploded and swept through the clouds with a ferocious sword cry. The demonic clouds immediately dispersed and were replaced by a pitch-black color with the appearance of a sword shadow that could obliterate all creatures.
This sudden change in Qing Shan's aura had exceeded the expectations of these demons. No one would have thought that a mere Harmonious Spirit Realm cultivator could hide so much power. Qing Shan did not give them all the opportunity to respond at all.
In the next moment, Qing Shan's figure exploded with and transformed into a boundless black sword light that slashed randomly in the sky.
It was as if dark ink was expanding in the clear sky and the demons touched by it immediately cried out, and in the end it was cut into minced meat by the sword intent attack.
In just one strike, the group of demons became minced meat and blood splattered from the sky. They were not even aware of the fact that they had died because they had not yet dodged.
After which, their demon bodies were one-on-one already shattered into pieces. Their demon souls were also completely destroyed, and their demon cores were smashed into dust.
“Very, very strong! It was even stronger than Demon Lieutenant Zhifeng.” It was the last trembling thoughts of those dead demons that were accompanied by boundless fear.
Qing Shan then reappeared with the Jade Box in his hand accompanied by his cold gaze.
His cold gaze swept towards the flying Mou Li not far away yet and still saw what was happening.
"Did I let you go ?!"
Mou Li shivered at that emotionless voice, she felt a piercing pain in her soul.
Today would probably be the most shocking day of his life because today was the day that he saw how a ruthless young man exterminated dozens of experts with just a single strike.
The aura of Qing Shan's Soul Realm realm made Mou Li extremely frightened. That endless sword energy was like a nail pinned in the sky, Mou Li could not move and did not dare to look Qing Shan in the eyes. He was scared, very scared! It was as if his life was determined by Qing Shan's will.
“How.... How can it?! This young man had unfathomable strength, he turned out to be a Soul Realm expert! I must have gone crazy trying to trap such an expert! Now that he didn't let me go. could it be that he wanted to kill me?! What should I do! How can I escape now that my body is locked by it! Surely, death awaits me now! Ah.. Damnit.. But I still want to live!”
Mou Li was currently in a dilemma and had been locked in place by Qing Shan's killing intent.
At this moment, as long as he was alive, he was willing to sell his own sect for a bargain price for Qing Shan in order not to kill him.
He had no integrity as a Monk and it was unsightly. It made Wu shi show a disgusted face. Despite feeling disgusted, he was unwilling to see Qing Shan kill again. Wu Shi was now feeling confused. With Qing Shan's character, he could easily exterminate dozens of demons with just the strength of his body, what more killing a single mere Mou Li.
Wu Shi clenched his teeth, the few words that came out of his mouth might not be what Qing Shan wanted, but he still had to say them.
"Qing Shan, can you show mercy and not kill him."
"I didn't say I wanted to kill him... I just didn't let him go." The pattern on Qing Shan's face then spread out and vanished as his cold and ferocious aura also disappeared then smiled. He had anticipated Wu shi's request to give mercy to this man.
Qing Shan had also never really thought of killing Mou Li, but it only scared him. Mou Li did not have to be killed, they were currently still in the territory of the Yan State and had a use.
Qing Shan planned not to kill him but would implant a soul seal on Mou Li. Qing Shan felt that there might be a great battle the next moment.
Qing Shan then flew away looking like a black dot in the sky. In an instant, he had already returned to the ship while carrying Mou Li who had tried to escape earlier, now looking like a little chick.
Although this was embarrassing for Mou Li, but Qing Shan did not kill him at least. Wu Shi slightly sighed in relief after confirming it and his heart was slightly shaken.
"Thank you ..." Wu Shi looked at Qing Shan deeply and turned his back to return to the ship room..
He thought that Qing Shan was letting Mou Li live for her sake. He felt a little touched in his heart and it was hard to suppress him at this moment.
Jin Zhu who had been a spectator since the beginning saw Qing Shan's scheme. He originally wanted to help, but Qing Shan had used a much more terrifying method to exterminate that group of demons.
"By going through so little effort, it was natural to scare Mou Li. Making Mou Li afraid was to conquer her. Perhaps Qing Shan wanted to instill his own influence in the Yan Country. The Mou Li sect may have to change its holdings" muttered Jin Zhu inwardly..
“How can he cultivate?! Less than twenty years. But it already had such power, and its mind was also cunning like an old fox... This is the most evil person to fight, it would be a nightmare to make enemies out of people like him... Fortunately that time I had requested a second prophecy from the elder, otherwise, I would have ended up in death and regret..” Jin Zhu let out a long sigh and rejoiced in his heart.
He was happy that he had made the wisest decision of his entire life: to be on good terms with Qing Shan.
Qing Shan took Mou Li away from their ship and parted ways with Wu Shi and the others for a while.
Qing Shan was able to see at first glance, the demon mark on the jade box containing the Heavenly Relic. It was most likely the reason why those demons were able to track down Mou Li's whereabouts.
"The "devil named Fen Zi was coming because of the traces left behind by this mark. After capturing him, I will bring this Mou Li back to his sect and help him become the sect master. Then I will be able to rob all the sects in this Yan Country using his name." This was Qing Shan's current plan.
In addition to wanting to obtain wealth, he desperately needed a supply of spirit stones and a lot of money to live on during the journey. He walked between the Demon Dao and the Truth, so wrong or not, he would do it like his Master did.
