Chapter 8 The Gathering of Heroes

"What's wrong with you three? The atmosphere suddenly became so bad?"

The woman who observed Nachi and the others for a while, and after noticing the change in the atmosphere, opened her mouth to ask, called Orochimaru.

In contrast to the upright sitting posture of the three of them, the woman sat cross-legged on the ground in a posture that could be described as a big Malaysian golden knife, which showed that she was an uninhibited fellow.

"Orochimaru-sama."

Seeing the person who asked him clearly, Na Zhiwuliu immediately clasped his luggage to the other party. And the action in times of trouble is the same as that of Nachi.

Only Jing Ming was at a loss for a moment because he had never seen this woman who suddenly appeared. But only for a moment.

Na Zhi specially called out the woman's name, and I am afraid that there are also factors in it to remind Jing Ming.

Although he never considered himself a quick thinker, Jing Ming was by no means a dull fool. He immediately remembered the identity of the woman in front of him, because the other party's name was so loud that it was impossible to think about it.

Jing Ming's face, which had been heavy because of the unexpected news, suddenly changed color.

"Unparalleled in the world...... Orochimaru!"

"Hahahaha...... Good response, boy."

She laughed happily, Jing Ming's surprised face and respectful eyes made Orochimaru feel a little complacent.

Big monsters are all arrogant, and their own reputation can make a big monster change color in the blink of an eye, which is enough to prove that their prestige is still famous all over the world.

Orochimaru smiled happily, but Jing Ming was very uncomfortable listening to it. Although his back was still straight, judging by the whitening knuckles of the exertion, he was not as relaxed as it seemed at first glance.

Orochimaru's voice was like it had been damaged by tobacco and alcohol, full of hoarseness and vicissitudes, but her voice had nothing to do with being unpleasant.

However, as soon as Jing Ming heard her laughter, a strange trembling sensation still uncontrollably welled up from his body, an unfamiliar throbbing.

———— unfortunately, before he realized what was surging in his chest, Orochimaru's laughter had stopped.

"I haven't seen you though...... However, since you are a tengu and a big monster, not counting the wise boy, there is also a heavenly demon. Then, it should be to fight Jingming."

"Yes, it's Minato Jingming."

Jing Ming nodded without changing his face. Judging from his calm attitude, I really couldn't see the wavering just now. Moreover, his tone was not self-contained at all, as if he was telling something ordinary.

For the big monster, this can already be said to be abnormal.

Ordinary youkai are not a problem against seven or eight humans with their bare hands. Slightly more powerful, it would be a piece of cake to deal with the same number of heavily armed humans. Further up, it is not a fool's dream to fight against thousands of troops with one enemy, one horse to be a thousand, and to fight against thousands of troops and horses with one's own strength.

However, these seemingly remarkable powers, in the face of nature, are nothing more than a joke.

Only the big monsters, who can change the natural scenery with their gestures, cut off the rivers and make the mountains collapse and crack the ground, reach this kind of realm, and fight against nature with their own strength, can they be qualified to call themselves strong.

Seriously, as long as you are not afraid of the revenge of the oni and the tengu, any of the youkai in this square at the moment has the ability to turn this thousand-meter-high mountain of youkai into dust fragments in an instant.

Needless to say, this is a tremendous power. The big monsters with this kind of power, even if they are conceited because of this, it is a normal thing.

Even that Zhiwuliu, when he said his name, he would have some pride, but it didn't mean that Zhiwuliu was arrogant or arrogant. All this is just from the big monster's strong self-esteem.

Great monsters all have a strong sense of self-esteem, which is understandable for them with great power.

However, Minato Jingming is undoubtedly the exception among the big monsters.

It's not that he doesn't have self-esteem, but it's not as strong as the average big monster, just to an ordinary level.

Although he does not lack the consciousness of preferring to be a broken jade rather than a complete tile, the reason that drives him to do so can only be a noble mission, not his own honor. No matter what kind of youkai it is, when facing an object weaker than yourself, it will be more or less arrogant like "making the other party obey you". Among all the big monsters that Zhiwuliu knew, there was no exception except for Minato Jingming. That man, from the bottom of his heart, thought that he was not a great being. This is not a pathological masochistic spirit, but the nature of a living being, and Minato Jingming is neither a superior nor inferior existence, but just one of many living beings...... That's probably what this man thinks. The innate original sin of arrogance failed to manifest in Jing Ming's body, and it is unknown what the reason was for Zhiwuliu. But that's really a character that he doesn't have, and Zhiwuliu thinks that it should be thanks to the noble soul of Minato Jingming himself. Because of this, even the weakest of all the great youkai of the Oni Clan and Tengu, whether it is Ibuki Suyaka or Kara, still always looks up to Jingming, and it is also because of his noble root nature. "Oh...... You don't seem like any other big monster." A low exclamation came from Orochimaru's throat, and she looked at Jing Ming with a slightly curious gaze, as if she could see something new in him. "No, that's probably your delusion. In Xiazuo Dou Jingming, he is not a special character." Hearing this answer, which seemed to be a little cold, Orochimaru was still smiling———— no, rather, her smile became more obvious. It was a smile that could only be described as bold and cheerful. However, not to mention Orochimaru, even Nachi and Encounter, who were on the side, couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat for this smile. Of course, this is not because of Orochimaru's ugly appearance. Although her skin is brown, her appearance is extremely beautiful, and she wears a wide male robe, but this can't hide her sensual figure, regardless of whether Orochimaru is attractive enough as a woman, at least as a female. If there's one thing about her that makes her feel uncomfortable, it's her eyes. It was a snake's eye, and there seemed to be an unusual darkness hidden in its erect pupils, which made any peeping eye fearful. I don't know if it's an illusion, although Orochimaru's smile is indeed very sunny, but her eyes don't show any smile, some are just endless cold. "Is that so...... I'm not old enough to see people clearly, junior." was full of arrogant words, but Jingming's heart did not have the slightest anger. Because this woman is qualified to say so. Most of the monsters present could only be regarded as young people in front of her. Although Orochimaru, Karmara, Wuming, and Nazhiwuliu are known as the four great swordsmen, don't think that the strength of these four big monsters is equal. It should be said that Orochimaru is overwhelmingly stronger than the other three. In the past, the snake demon named Yachigo Orochi, also known as Yamata Yuan Lu Zhi, was killed by the man of Kensu Susanoo, which can be said to be famous all over the world. However, I'm afraid not many people will know that in the remains of the Yaqi Orochi after his death, a new monster was born. The descendant of the Eight Miscellaneous Snakes, the White Phosphorus Snake. The current name is Orochimaru. The demons that can be traced back to the age of mythology, their power is not comparable to that of the Zhiwu Stream, which was born in this era. Even though it is only a relic of the previous era, because of this, its mystery is unrivaled and unparalleled in the world. Besides———— Jingming moved his gaze to the woman's waist. There, there was a sword. It was more than four feet long, and the blade was wrapped in an ordinary black scabbard, and there was nothing special about it at all. But, since it's the sword of the Great Youkai, how can it be a mundane thing. Even if they knew such an obvious truth, not many people would believe that this mediocre-looking sword was the Tianye Cloud of Megatron. His own strength is unmatched, and he is also holding a divine sword, Jing Ming estimates that if he fights with Orochimaru, he will be beheaded under the sword in less than a hundred rounds———— in fact, this is not to be estimated at all, it is an iron-clad fact.
