Chapter 487: Lure the Enemy Deeply

According to Li Mufeng's instructions, he only needed to hold the opponent back for half an hour. Although Song Qingming didn't dare to say that he was 100% sure, he was still 70% to 80%. Moreover, with Yao Qianshu and Li Xianyun taking action, it would not take half an hour to kill a Fire Leopard Demon King of average strength.

As long as Yao Qianshu, the head of the sect, could take action, even if he could only exert half of his strength, the Xiaoyao Sect would have more than 50% chance of winning this battle. Song Qingming was very confident in them.

Li Xianyun just nodded to Li Mufeng's plan to counterattack the monsters, and did not express any opinions. He sat next to him like a bystander, watching Song Qingming and the others.

After discussing with Song Qingming and Li Xianyun, Li Mufeng immediately notified the sect to issue an imperial decree and began to quickly gather the army to the north.

In addition to the many disciples of Xiaoyao Sect, Xiaoyao Sect also recruited many immortal cultivation families from Guyang County, plus the Jiangling County cultivators who came to support from Jinshanfang. After more than ten days, an army of more than 2,000 cultivators quickly gathered and followed Song Qingming and others to kill towards Guiyunfang.

In order not to alarm the two monster armies in Gaoyun County, Xiaoyao Sect, under the command of the head Yao Qianshu, first went east from Guyang County through Jiangling County, and then went directly to the northeast of Guiyunfang before turning south to the main battlefield of this time, Zixingfang.

Zixingfang is a small market located in the northeast of Gaoyun County. It is located between two mountain ranges. It is the nearest must-go road for Guiyunfang to go south to Weiguo. It connects Guiyunfang and Gaoyun County of Weiguo. The geographical location is very critical.

There are a total of ten demon kings from Jinyushan who went south to Guiyunfang this time. Among them, the main army led by six demon kings is still besieging Bai Yuxian and others in Guiyunfang near the north.

After the remaining four demon kings went south to break through Zixingfang, two demon kings stayed here to block the retreat route of Guiyunfang to the south for support. The other two demon kings had already gone south to Gaoyun County to cause some damage, and were temporarily blocked in the south of Gaoyun County by Guangling Zhenren in cooperation with the "Golden Winged Flying Tiger" puppet beast.

In addition to the two demon kings in the middle stage of Jindan, there are thousands of low-level demon beasts left in Zixingfang, and the number is not less than that of the human cultivators. If they want to win this battle quickly, it depends on whether the three leading Jindan cultivators such as Song Qingming can quickly kill the two Jindan demon kings in the market.

After sending several foundation-building cultivators to explore the situation around Zixingfang, the Xiaoyao Sect soon found the Fire Leopard Demon King hiding in the market.

After discussing with Song Qingming, Yao Qianshu adopted the strategy of luring the enemy, which was easier to succeed. They sent a small team of five foundation-building cultivators to attack a group of low-level monsters in the north of the market, and managed to lure the Fire Leopard Monster King who was taking a nap out of the market.

Even if there were several Jindan cultivators this time, as long as the monster king was mixed in the monster army, once it was aware of the situation in advance, there was still a certain probability that it would escape in the chaos.

In addition to breaking through the key market of Zixingfang, the biggest goal of this battle was to try to kill one of the opponent's monster kings first. Otherwise, if the two monster kings escaped back to Guiyunfang, it would affect the entire battle situation later, and the results of this battle would also be greatly reduced.

Because only Song Qingming and three others came from Xiaoyao Sect this time, although the overall strength of the cultivators had surpassed the monster army in Zixingfang, it was still very difficult to successfully kill two Jindan middle-stage monster kings at once.

However, according to the plan made by Li Mufeng before, Xiaoyao Sect chose to take a step back and win in a safe way. First, they concentrated their superior forces to surround and kill one of the demon kings. Then, as long as their luck was not too bad, Yao Qianshu, Song Qingming and others outside Zixingfang would still have a 70% to 80% chance of achieving this goal.

Compared with the cunning Nine-Pattern Dragon that had been dealing with Xiaoyao Sect for many years, the Fire Leopard Demon King, who had a bad temper and rarely came into contact with human cultivators, was naturally a target that Xiaoyao Sect could more easily capture.

The Fire Leopard Demon King actually defected to Jinyushan from the north not long ago. This time, he was ordered by the White Dragon Demon King outside Guiyunfang to guard Zixingfang with the Nine-Pattern Dragon for several months.

A few miles northeast of Zixingfang, a dozen low-level demon beasts were drinking water and playing by a small river.

Suddenly, several sword lights flashed in the river. The four or five first-level monsters on the shore were killed by these sword lights before they could react. The surrounding monsters fled in panic.

Then, five foundation-building monks dressed in Xiaoyao Sect costumes suddenly jumped out of the river, raised their flying swords and killed the other monsters that were already scared and retreating. Soon, screams and screams were heard by the river.

Since the southward capture of Zixingfang, the monsters have been entrenched around the market for several months. They have never been attacked by human monks, and the monsters in Zixingfang have gradually lost their defense.

It was not until more than a dozen first-level monsters died by the river that the monsters in Zixingfang finally reacted. Soon, several second-level monsters rushed out of the market with hundreds of first-level monsters.

After these Xiaoyao Sect foundation-building monks fought with the monster army for a while, they immediately turned around and fled to the northeast. The five foundation-building monks who went to provoke the monsters had all practiced some secret methods of escape speed, so their speed would naturally be faster than those low-level monsters that came to chase them.

However, just as they were pulling away from the monsters behind them, a burst of red escape light lit up in Zixingfang, and it flew over the market and turned into a red cloud leopard. It was the Fire Leopard Demon King who had been frustrated in this place for several months.

The Fire Leopard Demon King was also a demon king with a bad temper. He had been frustrated in Zixingfang for a long time. Now he finally saw a few human foundation-building monks who took the initiative to come to provoke him and wanted to escape. Naturally, the Fire Leopard Demon King could not tolerate this.

After looking at the five foundation-building monks who were fleeing in panic with contempt, the Fire Leopard Demon King turned into a red light again, and instantly came to the outside of the market and chased directly to the northeast.

The Fire Leopard Demon King had just appeared and left the market, and Yao Qianshu, who was standing on a high mountain more than ten miles away from Zixingfang, immediately spotted its figure.

Seeing that this less scheming demon king had been fooled and chased out, Yao Qianshu smiled and said to Song Qingming beside him: "Junior Brother Song, the Fire Leopard Demon King has come out. Fellow Daoist Li and I will concentrate on dealing with it in a while, and I will leave this to you to command."

"Please rest assured, Senior Brother, I will never let any demon beast go within half an hour."

After Yao Qianshu nodded lightly, he strode forward and walked out. After avoiding the sight of Song Qingming and others behind him, he quietly took out the golden brocade box that Li Mufeng had given him not long ago, and took the "Deer Soul Pill" in it with a calm face.

Seeing the Fire Leopard Demon King chasing them from behind, the faces of the several foundation-building monks who were responsible for luring the enemy suddenly changed and they quickly accelerated their escape speed and ran forward desperately.

Seeing that they were about to escape to the pre-arranged position, the Fire Leopard Demon King, who had already caught up with them, suddenly opened his mouth and spit out a powerful red fireball downwards, which quickly flooded everyone.

Suddenly, they felt a strange sound coming from above, and they looked up and found the huge fireball that had already attacked them from above. Facing the fierce attack of the Fire Leopard Demon King, the people who felt pressure immediately showed a trace of ugly color on their faces, and quickly stopped their bodies and prepared to hold up the shield to resist.

"You retreat first, leave this to me!"

With a somewhat cold voice, a yellow figure suddenly appeared above them, and a sword split the huge fireball that had just fallen into two halves.

When these Xiaoyao Sect members started to sneak into Zixing Square to lure the enemy, Li Xianyun had already ambushed in a secret formation nearby. Seeing that these people were about to be caught up by the Fire Leopard Demon King, Li Xianyun quickly dodged and rushed out to block the attack for them.

After seeing Li Xianyun's figure in the air, the few people who were already sweating on their faces immediately breathed a sigh of relief. After quickly speaking a word of thanks, they stepped on the flying sword and quickly retreated to the back without looking back.

Seeing that Li Xianyun suddenly appeared below and broke his attack with one sword, the Fire Leopard Demon King was slightly startled and stopped, and immediately realized that the human cultivation in front of him seemed to be as strong as himself.

When the Xiaoyao Sect foundation-building cultivators who were luring the enemy below had safely left here, Li Xianyun looked up at the Fire Leopard Demon King above, but he did not rush to take action first, but just looked at the other party expressionlessly.

Feeling Li Xianyun's cold gaze on him, the somewhat angry Fire Leopard Demon King felt a chill in his heart. He shook his big head and yelled angrily. He took the lead and spit out a more powerful fireball towards Li Xianyun who had been standing there.

After confronting Li Xianyun for a while, the Fire Leopard Demon King also saw that the human cultivator in front of him seemed difficult to deal with. After pretending to attack and launching this attack, the Fire Leopard Demon King immediately dodged and retreated quickly, wanting to turn around and flee back to Zixingfang to join the army of monsters in the market.

However, the Fire Leopard Demon King had only retreated a few dozen feet away when a giant iron tower of seven or eight feet high suddenly appeared in the air and quickly pressed down in front of it, forcing it back again.

On the top of this tall iron tower, there stood a middle-aged man in a gray robe with a solemn face and slightly white temples. He was Yao Qianshu, the head of Xiaoyao Sect who had just rushed here from a distance.

Yao Qianshu, who was standing in front of the Fire Leopard Demon King, now had a ruddy complexion and was no longer sickly as before. The aura emanating from his body had almost recovered to 70% to 80% of that in his prime.
