Chapter 99 Conquering the ‘Devil’ (Fifth Update, Please Subscribe)

"This place has a unique scenery." Zhou Qing sighed and only said the first half of the sentence.

As if he felt something, the red flames in his sleeves were about to move.

Zhou Qing was now at the edge of the shallows, in a dense forest.

A few hundred meters away, on the cliff to the north, there is a cave five or six meters above the water, covered by weeds and dead trees growing on the cliff.

Without a closer look, it would be difficult to spot a cave here.

Even though Zhou Qing had the powerful vision of an eagle, he could only see half of the cave through the gaps between weeds and dead trees.

At first glance, one would only think that it is a concave area on the cliff, and it is difficult to associate it with anything else.

"Is that there?" Zhou Qing's eyes narrowed.

"Brother Qing, let's just wait here. Mandrills usually show up after dark." Fu Zongchang whispered.

"That's fine." Zhou Qing glanced toward the southwest.

The three of them waited quietly.

Not long after, the sun set, a full moon rose, and the bright moonlight shone in the forest.

When the moon was at its peak, Fu Zongchang stood up and said, "Let's go!"

"Are you in such a hurry?" Zhou Qing, who was sitting on the tree trunk, raised his head.

Half of his face was illuminated by the moonlight, and the other half was in the shadow of the tree trunk.

Fu Zongchang was stunned when he heard this, and nodded heavily: "It's time!"

"Okay." Zhou Qing stood up, his entire face completely covered by the shadow of the tree trunk.

The two Fu brothers, who were the first to get up and walk out, were now completely exposed to the moonlight.

"Brother Qing? What are you waiting for?"

Seeing Zhou Qing didn't move, Fu Zongming looked at him doubtfully.

"coming!"

In the darkness, Zhou Qing moved.

He raised his head suddenly, his leg muscles swelled with blood, kicked off his right foot, and rushed out of the shadows.

"bass!"

Coming out together was a brilliant sword light.

Under the moonlight, the strange azure blue blade reflected the astonished eyes of the two brothers.

Poof!

Two bloody swords soared into the sky.

When Zhou Qing appeared behind them, the two brothers covered their cut throats and turned around to stare at him.

"Ho ho."

"why"

An itchy feeling spread from the wound, and their lips soon turned purple and black, making them speechless.

"Take a deep breath, the pain will subside soon." Zhou Qing sheathed the knife and spoke softly, his face neither sad nor happy.

thump!

The two brothers supported each other, fell together, and breathed their last.

"Hi~!"

The red flames on Zhou Qing's wrist fell down, and he screamed excitedly when he looked at the two bodies.

"Go ahead."

Zhou Qing's voice deepened.

"You have harmed so many innocent people, and this is yours."

The next moment, Zhou Qing suddenly paused.

"What am I being sentimental about? Why are you pretending to be a gentleman?! You want me to die, so you die in my hands. That's all."

"Eat!" Zhou Qing ordered to Chi Yan.

Chi Yan got into the corpses of the two brothers and devoured their flesh and blood.

After a while, Zhou Qing looked at the cliff hundreds of meters away.

The golden shadow flashed under the moonlight.

A black beetle the size of a washbasin appeared at the entrance of the cave, its body facing the bright moon hanging high in the sky, its huge mouthparts opening and closing as if it was eating.

In just a few breaths, the black beetle expanded rapidly and turned into a giant object more than two meters long and one meter wide.

"Is this the Corpse Insect Gu King?" A soft moan came from not far away from Zhou Qing.

Yao Xuewei did not know when she appeared less than ten meters away from him.

‘What a strong body! ’ Zhou Qing was shocked.

"It seems that Lin Tianzheng is in the cave." Yao Xuewei frowned, turning a blind eye to the Fu brothers who turned into mummies next to them.

"We have to find a way to lure him out to fight."

Yao Xuewei pondered.

"Leave it to me!" Zhou Qing said solemnly.

The situation inside the cave is unknown and indeed dangerous.

If he takes action against the Corpse Insect Gu King, he will definitely attract Lin Tianzheng.

"My lord is looking for an opportunity to take action!"

As soon as Zhou Qing finished speaking, he rushed through the grass and trees, passing the long knife and scattering debris.

The Corpse Insect Gu King also discovered Zhou Qing's figure.

"hiss--!"

It did not stop absorbing the power of the moonlight. It raised its head and let out a sharp scream. The sound waves were like substance, ripples in the air and spread.

Zhou Qing frowned, used his true energy to protect his body, and resisted the instinctive reaction of covering his ears.

"Boom!"

There were roaring sounds from the cave.

Dozens of strange figures with stiff movements leaped out of the cave and crashed into the river.

Soon, these figures came to the shallows where Zhou Qing was.

The moonlight reflected the highly decayed faces of these people and their bodies with a metallic luster like black iron.

As these zombies approached, a strong stench hit them.

Zhou Qing held his breath.

Facing the onslaught of corpses, he always stayed on the periphery to prevent being trapped.

When the long knife fell on these zombies, there was a sound of gold and iron clashing, and sparks flew everywhere.

However, as Zhou Qing exerted his strength, zombies were decapitated one after another.

The beating corpse worm ran out of the skull.

Chi Yan excitedly caught up with the escaping corpse insect and feasted on it.

In just a few dozen breaths, Zhou Qing killed all these zombies.

"Hiss-!!" The corpse insect Gu king let out a sharper hiss.

This time, seven or eight more zombies ran out of the cave.

The bodies of these zombies are relatively complete, with a bronze sheen all over their bodies.

Zhou Qing stepped forward with a knife.

Dang, Dang, Dang!

"So hard!" Zhou Qing's eyes changed.

The long knife slashed the necks of these zombies. Although it could leave deep wounds, it could not kill them with one blow.

He had to chop three or four times in succession at the same place to cut off a zombie's head.

A gap soon appeared on the blade of the demon-slaying knife.

Zhou Qing untied the wooden box behind his back and took out an official sword.

The cold sword light lit up again in the field.

"Crack!"

With a crisp sound, the official knife broke, and the last zombie was killed by Zhou Qing.

This time, the Corpse Insect Gu King did not summon any more zombies, but stopped absorbing the power of the moonlight.

"I didn't expect someone to find this place."

A surprised voice sounded from behind Zhou Qing.

The hair on Zhou Qing's body stood on end as he used the Lightning God Walk with all his strength, dodging for tens of meters in a row.

He looked intently.

An old man wearing Taoist robes with white beard and hair came slowly, holding a palm-sized bronze tripod in his hand.

The visitor was clearly Lin Tianzheng.

It's just that his current appearance has changed drastically. He has a thin body, sunken eye sockets, and a black complexion. His eyes are almost only white, and his pupils are glowing with a strange purple color.

"You are Wei Sheng's disciple? You have the aura of Gu insects on your body! It's so familiar."

Lin Tianzheng's voice was low, hoarse, and had a strange dry feeling.

"Is this what you're talking about?"

Zhou Qing waved his hand, and a pink butterfly the size of a washbasin flew out of his sleeve.

When the butterfly flaps its wings, a faint pink mist floats away.

"This is—! Poison Butterfly?! And a mutated Poison Butterfly?!"

Lin Tianzheng did not dodge, took a deep breath of mist, stared at Er Qing, then turned to Zhou Qing, his expression gradually becoming crazy.

"Why?! Why?! Why are you shouting~!"

Lin Tianzheng was so excited that he roared like a wild beast and rushed towards Zhou Qing like a madman.

"Buzz buzz!"

A thin, sharp sound of breaking through the air was heard in the empty shallows.

"Zheng——!"

Immediately afterwards, there was a sword cry!

The silver-white sword light seemed to merge with the moonlight.

"Pfft!"

Yao Xuewei, fluttering in white clothes, is like a flying fairy from the sky, coming from the west with a sword.

Lin Tianzheng's forward movement stopped abruptly, and an arm shot up into the sky and fell to the ground.

'so hard! ’

Yao Xuewei's eyebrows stood up, and an astonishing momentum burst out.

She didn't expect that she could only cut off one of the opponent's arms with a single full-strength sword strike.

If Lin Tianzheng merged with the corpse insect Gu King, wouldn't it be more difficult to deal with?

"Zhou" Yao Xuewei was about to speak out, but unexpectedly Zhou Qing was already facing the Corpse Insect Gu King.

A butterfly the size of a washbasin spun out silk threads and stopped the Corpse Insect Gu King.

The ferocious Corpse Insect Gu King immediately launched a fierce attack on Zhou Qing.

When the mouthparts opened and closed, within a dozen rounds, the demon-slaying knife in Zhou Qing's hand shattered inch by inch.

In desperation, he could only take out a black harpoon similar to a trident, use the fork instead of the knife, and use the knife skills.

Dang, Dang, Dang!

Faced with the extremely sharp mouthparts of the Corpse Insect Gu King, the harpoon was able to withstand its wind and rain-like attacks. Sparks flew and huge roars continued to sound.

"What a weapon!" Zhou Qing's eyes lit up.

The crazy corpse insect Gu King attacked even more rapidly, and Zhou Qing was at a disadvantage for a while.

On the other side, Yao Xuewei suppressed Lin Tianzheng firmly.

boom!

A silver-white sword energy more than three feet long fell suddenly, hitting Lin Tianzheng in the chest, leaving a terrifying scar on his body that was deep enough to see the bones.

Lin Tianzheng relied on the terrifying power of the sword energy to fall into the river and immediately fled back to the cave.

"Leave this to you!" Yao Xuewei followed closely and chased into the cave.

After Yao Xuewei left, Zhou Qing used all his cards.
