I'll Quit Being a God-Novel

Chapter 267: The Blue Mountains Remain Unchanged

Obviously, the frail man in front of them is the jinx mentioned by the group of demons.

As soon as he appeared, all the evil demons were so scared that they didn't dare to look at the meat that they had been drooling over a moment before.

All the evil demons looked at Xiao Juechen, hoping that he would stand up at this moment.

Lu Heng, on the other hand, quietly watched everything, scrutinizing the musician-like man from head to toe.

I don't recognize him...

Then Lu Heng looked at the large red figure that descended from the sky and slowly landed among the group of demons.

The woman dressed in a bright red wedding dress and a phoenix crown with a red veil was obviously the "zombie" that the demons had been talking about. She was a zombie puppet made by the musician to fight against the enemy.

The crimson light inside the deserted village made the red-clad woman look even more terrifying.

Her phoenix crown and red veil, just like those worn by a bride, were the real regalia. It was not ordinary for women to have such clothing when getting married.

However, Lu Heng was certain that the blood-red wedding dress didn't represent the woman's identity.

It was also not a real phoenix crown and red veil.

The seemingly delicate fabric had signs of blood red surging on it, as if the garment were alive.

When the demons were chanting earlier, they seemed to mention the name of this clothing... Blood-red Dress and Shimmering Skirt?

This name doesn't sound like that of any righteous treasure.

Although the musician's face was deathly pale and not that of a living person, he was not a demon and there was not a trace of demonic energy emanating from his entire body.

Moreover, when the woman wearing a wedding dress descended, she landed in the middle of forty white sedan chairs.

As soon as she appeared, she protected all the children among the demons and scared away numerous other demons in the vicinity.

Currently, the woman in red is standing there and the demons no longer dare to approach the white sedan chairs or the children in them.

Such a technique is not something that a person of the demonic path could accomplish.

On the stage, Lu Heng looks around curiously.

However, the demons in the venue were already scared and nervous. As the musician slowly walked in, the demons retreated one after another and all squeezed under the stage where Lu Heng and his group were located.

The clamor continues incessantly.

"Master Xiao Juechen!"

"Jinx! You are overbearing, but today one of our Four Elders, Master Xiao Juechen, is here in the Green Hell Cave. How dare you be so arrogant... You are doomed to die tonight!"

"That's right! You are doomed to die tonight!"

The demons were fierce and cowardly, shouting loudly to boost their courage.

But no one dared to take the initiative to approach, afraid of running into the musician who was slowly walking towards them.

Such a situation made Xiao Juechen curse in his heart.

Just one person scared hundreds of demons like this... They really are a group of idiots!

Although none of the demons present were the core strength of the Green Hell Cave, this scene still made him lose face in front of the Heavenly Demon Lord.

To outsiders who didn't know, it seemed that all the demons in the Green Hell Cave were such cowards and idiots.

Xiao Juechen suddenly stood up and angrily shouted, "Everyone shut up in front of me! No noise allowed!"

After a loud shout that stopped the panic of many demons, Xiao Juechen suppressed the situation and then looked coldly at the musician walking towards the desolate village, saying,

"It seems the rumors are not false. You really are incredibly daring to even dare to invade my Fierce Demon Feast...Do you think you can rampage freely within the Fire Pass Country?"

Xiao Juechen shouted in a cold voice, but the musician remained expressionless, unmoved by his reprimand.

Under the bloody red light, the musician's slender fingers gently pressed onto the ancient qin floating at his side, and then lightly stroked the strings causing them to tremble. The melodious sound of the qin resonated throughout the scene.

Within the sound of the qin, there was no hint of killing intent; on the contrary, it sounded distant and ethereal, as if it were the sound of flowing water high in the mountains. It made people involuntarily intoxicated by the music.

However, as the sound of the qin reverberated, it clearly had no killing intent, yet more than ten demons on the square trembled and screamed in agony. Shortly after, it exploded with a bang, causing the other terrified demons to watch on in shock.

The bloody and foul-smelling mist exploded within the crowd.

Xiao Juechen saw this scene, causing his eyes to nearly burst with anger.

"Arrogant!"

It roared in anger, "Dare to be presumptuous in front of me, then you must not want to live anymore... seize him for me!"

Not only did his subordinates who were demons embarrass him, but even this jinx in front of him had tarnished his reputation... After all, he was one of the Four Elders of the Green Hell Cave! When had he ever suffered such disrespect?

Xiao Juechen gave a loud order, and in an instant, several figures rushed out from the group of demons. All of them were subordinates brought by Xiao Juechen, and they flew towards the musician.

This male musician disregarded it in front of everyone and even killed someone without permission. This was the same as slapping its face.

However, when the sound of the zither echoed just now, more than ten demons burst and died, which made Xiao Juechen puzzled and uncertain.

Because it couldn't figure out how the man in front of it killed more than a dozen demons from a distance.

There was no killing intent at all in that sound of the zither...

Therefore, he sent his subordinates forward to test the situation first, without intending to make the first move.

After ordering to capture that troublemaking musician, Xiao Juechen finally whispered to the Heavenly Demon Lord beside him.

"Lord Demon, this beast is both vicious and cunning. If we join forces and act together, we can subdue him in an instant... If we let him run amok, it may be difficult to rectify the situation later."

Xiao Juechen immediately suggested to surround and attack Lu Heng, without any intention of a one-on-one duel.

With a sigh, Lu Heng was about to speak when a demon suddenly appeared beside him and anxiously said something to Xiao Juechen.

Due to the soundproof formation, even Lu Heng was unable to hear the content of the conversation.

However, Lu Heng was able to see that after hearing the report, Xiao Juechen's face suddenly changed, and he immediately looked up at the sky.

Afterwards, he dismissed his subordinates and immediately went to Lu Heng's side.

Xiao Juechen once again set up the formation to prevent internal and external surveillance.

Facing Lu Heng, Xiao Juechen's face looked unsightly, yet he dared not delay and immediately shared the latest news he had received.

"Something's not right! Evil Lord, the Wolf God may be nearby!"

Xiao Juechen's warning made Lu Heng slightly startled, then greatly alarmed.

"What? Hanyu Mountain's Wolf God is nearby? How can you be sure? Did your intelligence sources see it?"

Xiao Juechen's face was bitter as he said, "How can we afford to send intelligence to monitor the Wolf God?... It's just that a dark cloud suddenly appeared over our heads just now, with lightning flashing inside. Thunder could strike from the sky at any moment."

"Furthermore, the time when the black cloud appeared coincides with the same time the jinx appeared down below. Can't say for sure, but that jinx may have already attracted Hanyu Mountain's Wolf God! That's why they dared to act so arrogantly and venture alone into the Fierce Demon Feast!"

"Now that this jinx has attracted attention inside, the Wolf God is blocking the way outside, intending to capture all of us in one fell swoop!"

Xiao Juechen's face was anxious. If it weren't for the need to explain the situation to Lu Heng, he would have turned and fled long ago.

As it nervously looked around, it spoke quickly.

"Things have come to this point. I'm afraid we will not survive tonight."

"This talisman is my token. Later, Evil Lord and I will each run for our lives in different directions."

"Perhaps we can escape with our lives this way. If, unfortunately, I die a tragic death, Evil Lord, the master, can take this talisman and go to the Floating Jade Mountain. There will be someone to guide him to meet the cave master."

"If we are both lucky enough to escape, we will meet again at the Floating Jade Mountain..."
