Chapter 112: Attack the Snake Catchers Sect branch
The Purple Lightning Lion King was born into an unremarkable Thunder Lion family. He was the eldest and the first to successfully reach the Qi Condensation stage, becoming a demon king.
Afterwards, he inherited the position of Lion King and took nine wives. Eight of them were inherited from the previous Lion King, and only the ninth was his original mate.
The ninth wife was the youngest and had the lowest cultivation level. She was often ostracized, but she had a strong personality and left home, taking her child with her.
As a result, she met a tragic end.
The Purple Lightning Lion King was heartbroken and gritted his teeth, "Do you know which sect's people killed her?"
Xu Hei initially wanted to tell the truth and say it was the Heavenly Puppet Sect. But after a moment's thought, he shook his head and said, "I'm not sure, but in these chaotic times, the only ones capable of such an act are the Snake Catchers Sect."
"Good! I'll destroy the Snake Catchers Sect right now!"
The Purple Lightning Lion King roared, stepping on lightning and thunder, his wings flapping as he flew towards the direction of the Snake Catchers Sect.
"……" Xu Hei was dumbfounded.
He's just going like that? Where's his brain?"Don't be impulsive!" Xu Hei shouted.
"I'm not impulsive at all. If I can't destroy the headquarters, I can at least wipe out their branch halls! Watch me take down their three branch halls in one go!"
As he spoke, the Purple Lightning Lion King had already disappeared from sight.
Xu Hei turned around and looked at Man Jin, who was also looking at him.
"Brother Xu, should we follow him?" Man Jin asked hesitantly.
"He's just a reckless brute. I'm afraid if we follow him, we'll get ourselves into trouble."
Despite saying this, Xu Hei was also hesitant. After all, the Snake Catchers Sect was his enemy too. If they could cause some damage to the sect, he would be happy to see it.
After a moment of silence, Xu Hei gritted his teeth and said, "Let's follow and see."
"Alright!" Man Jin nodded.
"Take this!"
At this moment, Xu Bai's voice came from behind.
Xu Hei turned around to see Xu Bai throwing a porcelain bottle towards him. Xu Hei used the Gravity Technique to catch it. It seemed to contain some powdery substance.
"Use this, and it will make the Snake Catchers Sect's people unable to have descendants!" Xu Bai said seriously.
Xu Hei was surprised, "Is this a poison pill?"
"That's right, it's my first time making a poison pill!" Xu Bai nodded.
Xu Hei was stunned.
The normal pills Xu Bai made already had terrifying effects. If this was a poison pill, it must be extraordinary.
Hearing her description of "unable to have descendants," Xu Hei knew it wasn't simple. He instinctively took a few steps back, carefully storing it in a storage bag from a distance of thirty meters, sealing it with a label before taking it.
Xu Hei didn't even dare to swallow it, only hanging it around his neck to avoid accidentally breaking the storage bag inside his stomach, which would be disastrous.
…………
The headquarters of the Snake Catchers Sect was in the northern part of the Southern Region, a long distance away, but it had five branch halls.
Each branch hall had a Great Perfection stage cultivator stationed, combined with a third-tier formation. Even a Core Formation stage cultivator couldn't easily take it down and could hold out until reinforcements arrived from the headquarters.
Some old monsters at the end of their lifespan in the Core Formation stage would also come to the branch halls to retreat, making them even harder to attack.
The two demons traveled at full speed and arrived outside a city after half a day.
This city was called Rock Serpent City, built on the edge of a cliff. Only cultivators could enter and exit, with the Snake Catchers Sect stationed there, making it one of the few cities not affected by the war.
From a distance, Xu Hei saw the Purple Lightning Lion King standing outside Rock Serpent City, surrounded by purple lightning, with a demonic wind swirling around him, ready to attack.
"Whoosh whoosh whoosh..."
Behind him, a group of female lions appeared, the Purple Lightning Lion King's eight wives, each exuding a powerful aura, moving like thunder, stepping on seven stars.
Three were at the mid-stage of Qi Condensation, three at the late stage, one at Great Perfection, and one was his first wife at the Core Formation stage.
In comparison, the ninth wife's cultivation level was indeed the lowest.
"Lions have so many wives..."
Xu Hei was also shocked, not by the number, but by their combat abilities.
At this moment, a light shield rose outside Rock Serpent City, with faint snake-shaped shadows circling it. This was the city's protective formation.
Inside the light shield, an old man with white hair and a white beard appeared on the city wall. He looked at the Purple Lightning Lion King and said calmly, "Purple Lightning Lion King, how has our Snake Catchers Sect offended you to bring you here?"
"You killed my wife and child, and you still ask why I'm here?"
The Purple Lightning Lion King didn't bother with words, roaring angrily and spitting out a thirty-meter-wide lightning bolt, striking the city wall of Rock Serpent City.
"Boom!!!"
The light shield shook violently, cracks spreading all over it, showing signs of collapse with just one strike.
The old man's face darkened, "This year, no one from our Snake Catchers Sect has entered the mountains. How could we have killed your wife and child?"
As soon as he said this, his heart sank.
Not long ago, Xuan Yangzi's faction suffered a great disaster, with everyone slaughtered, and Xuan Yangzi himself missing. No one knew the details.
Could it have been Xuan Yangzi's people who did it?
The old man was pondering this when he heard a mocking voice.
"Didn't enter the mountains? Your Snake Catchers Sect sent over a hundred people to Myriad Serpent Valley, blood-sacrificing millions of lives. Is this what you call not entering the mountains?"
Xu Hei didn't waste words, directly taking out over a hundred Snake Catchers Sect disciples' clothes, tokens, and body fragments, making them circle in the air with the Gravity Technique.
At this moment, there was an uproar inside Rock Serpent City.
Everyone stared at the items flying in the air, their faces twitching, their hearts in turmoil.
"My God! The rumors are true, Xuan Yangzi's faction was completely wiped out!"
"Look at that golden token, it's the first disciple Wu Mochou's!"
"Oh my God! That's Cui Yuan's head!"
The city was in complete chaos.
A hundred people entered the mountains, not a single one returned alive, and even Xuan Yangzi was missing.
They only knew they were all killed but didn't know the details. Seeing this now, it was highly likely they had clashed with this demonic beast.
The old man's face turned black.
"Xuan Yangzi, how could you cause such a huge disaster!"
The old man cursed Xuan Yangzi's ancestors in his heart.
The Chu Kingdom was in turmoil, the Heavenly Puppet Sect had wild ambitions, and all their branch halls had received orders to guard their headquarters and not go out casually.
At such a critical moment, Xuan Yangzi took his hundred men to hold a blood sacrifice ceremony.
He could understand, though. If it succeeded, their strength would greatly increase, and even if the Heavenly Puppet Sect wanted to act against them, they would have to think twice.
But it failed and caused such a huge trouble.
"Attack!"
The Purple Lightning Lion King was impatient. Seeing the old man silent, he directly ordered an attack on the city gate.
"Boom boom boom!!!"
All eight female lions attacked, spitting thunder and flames, beams of terrifying energy striking the light shield, causing it to shake and crack all over.
On the light shield, a coiled snake shadow appeared, the spirit of the formation.
A third-tier mountain protection formation had a spirit guarding it. At this moment, the coiled snake roared to the sky, spitting out streams of venom, raining down on the lion group.
"Roar!"
Suddenly, a thunderous roar came from behind. Man Jin raised his nose to the sky, spraying a stream of scorching air, evaporating the venom completely.
"Another one!"
The people inside Rock Serpent City were once again shocked, their hearts almost numb.
