Volume 3 Chapter 24 Ghosts in the Night
……
It was getting darker and darker, and the rolling clouds obscured the few stars, preventing a trace of light from shining through.
The atmosphere in the whole space was low and terrifying.
The middle-aged man from the Demon Slayer Division looked at Ji Chang and asked with a serious expression:
"Are you sure?"
Of course, it was the threat.
Ji Chang nodded and said expressionlessly:
"yes, I'm sure."
The man was angry, his voice was like a bell, and the heavens and the earth trembled, and he pointed at Ji Chang and shouted:
"If you can stop me, can you still kill everyone? Do you know how many forces came in this dark night, that was several times the attack on the Nangong clan! ”
Up and down the Nangong Mountain Gate, countless people heard this roar, and their expressions immediately showed fear.
There is no doubt that with their state, they will not be able to withstand another war, let alone a war on a larger scale, involving the war of the Demon Exterminator.
Ji Chang was silent for a moment, and said expressionlessly:
"Lord Liu Ti, I understand what you mean."
"There are a lot of ghosts hidden in this night."
"Xu Mu's identity can't be hidden, the forces of the world will soon launch a siege, but it will have to be tonight at the latest."
"There may be a lot of people coming tonight, but the strength is ...... Hehe. ”
At this point, Ji Chang's meaning is already very clear.
Liu Ti shook his head and said with a serious face:
"There are many of them, and they are strong."
"Maybe they can't help you, but this Xu Mu, they can definitely kill it."
Ji Chang shook his head:
"I said that Xu Mu can't die, at least not tonight."
"Whoever wants to kill him, I will kill him."
Liu Ti asked: "Even so, it will set off another bloody disaster, and your newly resurrected relatives will die?" ”
Ji Chang nodded: "Yes." ”
Liu Ti looked at Ji Chang's eyes, and there was an autumn leaf-like brown in the depths of his pure black pupils, as if there was a tiger hidden in it, and he was not afraid of any danger, and he could pounce on him at any time and tear him to pieces.
Such a look made Liu Ti inexplicably a little afraid, and this also made him even more convinced that Ji Chang could indeed break through to the domain master realm at any time, and he did have the strength to kill himself.
"The Demon Exterminator is just here to recruit An." When Liu Ti was in a dilemma, an old man behind him opened his mouth in a hoarse voice.
"We don't make the same mistake twice."
"Since he doesn't want to go back to Great Xia, then let's go."
When Liu Ti heard this, he looked at the old man with some incredulity, and asked, "Just let Xu Mu go?" ”
"Lord Governor, even if we let Xu Mu go, he will also die at the hands of others, so why don't we ......" The old man interrupted and scolded harshly:
"Shut up, there's no room for you to speak here!"
The governor was angry, so Liu Ti was silent and retreated, the old man glanced at Ji Chang deeply, then looked at Xu Mu, and asked:
"If we don't do it tonight, do you owe a favor to the Demon Exterminator?"
Xu Mu was silent when he heard this, and said:
"If it counts, then the Demon Slayer should still owe me a life."
The old man knew that Xu Mu was talking about biting the fire, so he was silent for a moment and asked:
"Is it good to write it off?"
"After all, he was punished too."
Xu Mu shook his head and said:
"Unless you help me tonight."
"Don't go too far, you kid!" Liu Ti snorted coldly, pointed to the night sky around him and shouted, "If we don't make a move tonight, it will already be regarded as a gift to you." ”
"Thank you." Xu Mu said.
Everyone was stunned, the old man shook his head with a wry smile, waved his hand and said, "That's it, since it can't be easily settled, you can settle this account with Lord Biting Fire yourself in the future." ”
"Demon Slayer, follow me!"
After speaking, the old man waved his robe, and the monks with a group of red-robed official uniforms left here, not knowing where to go.
Seeing this, Xu Mu turned his head to look in the direction of the Hunter Alliance, and asked, "If I don't join the Alliance, what are you going to do?" ”
In the Hunter Alliance, the man with the big knife in his hand was named Liu Zhang, he looked at Xu Mu, and said with a smile without hesitation: "Then naturally let you go." ”
Xu Mu snorted, turned his head to look at the wine fairy and said, "Senior, let's go." ”
On the side of the gold and silver firm, the middle-aged man with a wide figure saw this, and immediately took out a golden mirror, which shone with a heavy golden glow, and asked the wine fairy:
"Baiyun Taoist Temple, are you sure you want to protect the wood!"
The wine fairy looked at the man and said disdainfully:
"Which eye did you see that I was going to protect him?"
After speaking, the wine fairy took out his Dao sword and was about to slash at the golden mirror, which frightened everyone in the merchant to dodge in a hurry.
Seeing this, the wine fairy, who was just pretending, showed a hint of mockery on his face again, and said:
"This is the boundary of the Nangong family, and I am the guest of the Nangong family, you are uninvited, I naturally want to invite you out, it has nothing to do with Lao Shizi Xu Mu."
Jin Chuanrong held the mirror magic weapon, stunned for a moment, and then looked at Nangong Huaitian, who was holding the array eye pestle, and a trace of jealousy flashed in his eyes.
Then, he led people to retreat to the night sky 10,000 meters away, and the golden mirror in his hand kept shining on Xu Mu, which seemed to be some kind of tracking type of magic weapon.
Let's try it soon, everyone. 】
Seeing this, the wine fairy took out a wine gourd and spilled the sea of wine, isolating Xu Mu's breath, so Xu Mu's figure was suddenly lost in the golden mirror.
Jin Chuanrong's face was ugly, and he turned his head to look at the Tianshui Daoist and asked, "What does this mean when you dare to ask?" ”
Tian Ping said lightly: "The wine fairy acts personally, and it has nothing to do with the Taoist temple. ”
"As long as your strength is enough, you can kill the wine fairy tonight, and I won't stop you."
"On the surface, I don't want to retaliate later!" When Jin Chuanrong heard this, he cursed secretly in his heart, and then he wanted to activate the golden mirror again to lock Xu Mu.
But at this time, he suddenly discovered that Xu Mu had disappeared from the peak of the Nangong clan.
Jin Chuanrong was stunned for a moment, and then in the distant sky, he found two figures of an old man and a young man who were leaving quickly, and it was Xu Mu and Jiuxian Daoren.
Jin Chuanrong gritted his teeth, even though he wanted to lead people across the night sky to chase him, but he was stopped by the Tianshui Dao people again.
"This is the airspace of the Nangong clan."
"If you want to kill, you have to fight, go around."
"Count you ruthless!" Jin Chuanrong's face was ugly, and he didn't have time to entangle the people of Gentian Shuidao, so he could only lead people around this mountain range to chase after him.
At this time, the other forces hidden in this night sky also surfaced, and the powerful aura of the Dao Dao locked on the two figures in the sky, turning into streamers and chasing away.
"Elder, are we ......" Nangong Huaitian looked worried, and just wanted to ask Nangong Maoguan if he wanted to help Xu Mu, but when he turned his head, he suddenly found that Nangong Maoguan had disappeared, and Ji Chang, who was standing here just now, had also disappeared.
"For a while, they shouldn't be able to find out."
The familiar voice suddenly sounded under his feet, Nangong Huaitian lowered his head in accordance with the sound, only to see the rock formation squirming, Xu Mu's figure was slowly revealed, and the wine fairy was also by his side.
The two of them have been here all along.
It was Ji Chang and Nangong Maoguan who walked.
Nangong Huaitian's beautiful eyes lit up: "Blind eyes!" ”
Xu Mu got out of the cliff and praised with a smile: "Yes, it's not too stupid." ”
"It's just that it won't take long to find out."
"Nangong girl, I'm really going to leave now." Xu Mu stepped on a white cloud, turned his head and said.
Nangong Huaitian asked worriedly:
"Where are you going?"
Xu Mu didn't answer, just smiled faintly, and the wine fairy controlled the clouds to fly away.
Under the night sky, Xu Mu stood on the clouds, his whole body was shrouded in viscous ink-colored abilities, as a night watchman, those darkness was the special shelter given to him by the night.
It's just that in the future, Xu Mu can no longer walk in the night in a human way like before, because he is about to be hunted down and killed by the whole world.
From now on, he can only be a ghost.
A ghost in the night.
