Yes, you can.
Several white-haired Mahayana masters of the Zhao family are in Jingyue because of the alliance, but they are still Xuanlong people in essence. Xiong Chu is eyeing them covetously and wants to stab them in the back, so there is no reason for them not to come back to save the situation.
Even if their sudden departure caused chaos on the border of Jingyue Kingdom, Xiong Chu was ultimately at fault.
No matter which country it is applied to, the principle is the same and no one can find any fault with it.
No sense of the overall situation? No sense of the big picture
Your house is about to be robbed.
As for the argument that he should be executed according to the law...
As a cultivator in the Tribulation Crossing Stage, Tu Yuan thought that the Mahayana Stage cultivators were not carrots in the field, so how could they be chopped down at will? Even if they were chopped down, it didn't matter, he could just put the blame on Xiong Chu and use their heads to enforce military law.
After asking about the whole story, Lu Bei gave Xuan Long a bad review for his foolish behavior. All the Mahayana masters came out, even the one who was guarding the house...
No, Zhao Jiabai is not a fool. There must be a Mahayana cultivator guarding the house.
"The human race and the demon race have been at war for the past two years?"
"No, but the fighting and sparring has never stopped. There are often life and death competitions. Everyone has to accept their fate based on their own abilities." Tu Yuan replied truthfully.
"What about the demon kings in the Hundred Thousand Mountains? Isn't there a Mahayana who comes home to visit his family and kills them all?"
"They are endless, and the demon race's intelligence capabilities are very advanced."
Tu Yuan smiled bitterly and shook his head. The demon race's methods of observing the stars and fortune-telling were extremely advanced. There were even great demons who possessed astrological powers. They were much better at fortune-telling than humans.
The demon kings of the Ten Thousand Mountains all have prominent family backgrounds, and all are born into the bloodlines of one emperor, eight kings and nine great bloodlines of the Ten Thousand Demons Kingdom. To put it bluntly, they are here to gain military merits, and they are protected by the elders of their clan. Once the Xuanlong Mahayana cultivators make any moves, the demon king will get wind of it and run away in advance.
Without the Demon King, faced with the endless stream of little demons that could explode at any time, even those in the Mahayana stage could only stare at the sky in silence.
"Isn't Lu Li dead?"
"She died due to an unexpected event. The Mahayana stage did not take any action."
The demon clan does not keep useless people. Lu Li died at the hands of a cultivator of the same level because she was not as capable as others. Without her, there would be other demon kings to take her place.
Lu Bei was silent after hearing this, his emotions were quite complicated. After a moment, he patted his butt and continued, "According to what you said, the demon race wants to drag the human race to death, and the human race is also ready to drag the demon race to death?"
"That's right."
Sensitive parts were attacked, but Tu Yuan had a dignified expression: "The situation in the Ten Thousand Demons Kingdom is too corrupt. Without the peerless demons to suppress it, the power of the Demon King is very small, and he is about to lose the throne."
Tu Yuan talked eloquently that the factions within the demon race were even more chaotic than those in several major human kingdoms and the Holy Land of Daxia. Ever since the sudden death of the first demon king, the Ten Thousand Demons Kingdom lacked a commander who could defeat all those who disobeyed it.
If it weren't for the one emperor, eight kings, and nine great demons of the major bloodlines who all had the desire to become the Demon King and forcibly pieced together the fragmented Kingdom of Ten Thousand Demons and restored the majestic presence of the first generation of Demon King, the Kingdom of Ten Thousand Demons would have collapsed.
What heroic scene? The heroic scene of him dying in the belly of the banshee
That’s amazing!
Lu Bei secretly despised him. This time he stood up and abandoned the Sutra. The Immortal Sword Master was the one who deserved the title of invincible in the world.
The Demon King was defeated and died.
After talking about Jingyue, Tu Yuan complained about Xiongchu again. He was a good little brother, but suddenly he showed off his muscles in front of Xuanlong like a mad dog. "There is intelligence that the blood curse of the Gu family has been lifted. I don't know which fool did this immoral thing. If I knew about it, I would spread it widely and instigate Wuzhou, which borders Xiongchu, to cause trouble."
No need, Wu Zhou had already surrendered, and to show respect, she even sent her most precious princess to warm the other person's bed.
Lu Bei responded in his heart, but because he was in the wrong, he didn't dare to point out that Tu Yuan was the stupid one. Seeing that Tu Yuan was getting more and more addicted to his talk, he slapped him in the face.
Bang!
Tu Yuan's body stiffened, and she looked at Lu Bei with shyness and anger, then thought that this was her master, and then she didn't care anymore.
As expected of you demon cultivators, you have no moral principles at all.
Lu Bei picked up Tu Yuan, who was sitting on him, by the waist in a princess hug. As Tu Yuan's heart beat faster, he threw him to the ground.
"???"
A string of question marks flashed across Tu Yuan's mind, and she felt that the extraterritorial demon was too difficult to understand. She stood up, patted her butt, and quietly sensed Lu Bei's current realm.
The fusion period is complete.
As expected of the reincarnation of the devil, his talent is beyond reproach. What is more commendable is that he is so hardworking despite his talent.
Thinking of this, Tu Yuan used the Nine Years Qi-Exerting Technique to shrink his body and return to his younger state.
Lu Bei raised his eyebrows: "Why, is your tribulation coming?"
Tu Yuan nodded and admitted that the third heavenly tribulation was approaching and she was not fully prepared.
"You are lucky. Go ahead and get through the tribulation. This sect master will be watching from the side and will ensure your safety during the thunder tribulation." Lu Bei stroked his non-existent beard, acting like a hermit.
As far as he knew, it was a merit for a cultivator to overcome the tribulation, and the intensity of the tribulation faced by good and bad people was incomparable.
Although this common sense has never been fulfilled in his case, it is applicable to others. The criteria for evaluating good and bad cannot be based on ordinary moral values.
Take Tu Yuan as an example. She carries a flag and worships everywhere all day long. There are at least hundreds of thousands of little demons who died directly or indirectly at her hands. She is the focus of God's care, so it is reasonable for her to be cautious.
"Master, my heavenly tribulation is the tribulation of the inner demon." Tu Yuan rubbed his hands, blinked, and looked at Lu Bei in a rather mercenary manner.
Lu Bei: “…”
Forgive him for being ruthless, but Tu Yuan's flirting is not charming at all.
Such a figure and such a pretty face are wasted. She is obviously a very potential cover character, but she doesn't have the self-control of a witch at all.
Lu Bei did not think much about it. The inner demon calamity was better. Compared with the physical body resisting the thunder, the inner demon calamity falling into his hands was like Guanyin Bodhisattva reaching the door of faith, a perfect match.
"Come on, go to your room and survive the tribulation now."
—
The camera turned and Tu Yuan was sitting cross-legged on a cushion in a quiet room with his five hearts facing the sky. His mature body was very charming when he closed his eyes and remained silent.
Lu Bei didn't feel it. When he saw his own spirit tablet on the altar, Tu Yuan's superficial charm disappeared completely.
He waved his hand to smash the tablet, and slapped Tu Yuan on the forehead, telling the other party not to worry, to be more unrestrained, and to quickly bring on the inner demon calamity.
Speaking of which, this was Lu Bei's first time experiencing a heart-demon tribulation. He had only heard people talk about it before.
That’s right, that person is the Taifu.
Before he received the furnace and accelerator, Master Taifu suffered from evil thoughts due to flaws in his practice and imbalance of yin and yang. He feared himself more than God, and all four heavenly tribulations were tribulations of his inner demons. He had never been struck by lightning during his practice.
In Taoist practice, Taifu is the extreme among the outliers.
It is not common among demon cultivators either.
As the black fog gathered, Tu Yuan's expression suddenly changed. His beautiful eyes opened, reflecting a bloody and dark battlefield.
The inner demon calamity comes silently and is far less powerful than the thunder calamity.
Lu Bei remained calm, observing for a while, then tightened his five fingers and swept away the evil thoughts in Tu Yuan's body.
The method to overcome the tribulation is simple. He just sweeps away the evil thoughts, and the inner tribulation will disappear by itself.
The effect was gratifying. Tu Yuan's expression returned to calm and the thick darkness also dissipated.
After a moment, Tu Yuan turned around in bewilderment and looked up at Lu Bei, who had the demeanor of a master.
Her inner demons...
Postponed.
Tu Yuan overcame his own inner demon tribulation, but because he took shortcuts in the process, he did not suffer the test of his inner demon. God was also a little confused and decided to postpone the closed-book exam for a while.
The good news is that Tu Yuan is not in danger of being struck by lightning during this period, so he doesn't have to use the Nine Years of Qigong to get away with it.
Let’s just consider this as good news!
"Since there is nothing else, this sect master will leave first."
Lu Bei turned and left, taking a step forward and disappearing into the void. His demon-slaying sword was thirsty and eager to borrow the heads of the demon king's fellow villagers.
"The inner demon calamity can be postponed, Lord..."
“Huh?!”
By the time Tu Yuan had recovered from the unprecedented delay of the heavenly calamity, there was no sign of Lu Bei in the house. She just stared blankly there, and when she found that the tablets for worshipping the gods had been destroyed, she hurried forward to rearrange them.
She first bathed and burned incense, then took out a piece of sacred wood, held her breath, concentrated her mind, and carved the sacred wood with the most pious heart.
The complex and unclear language was sometimes high and sometimes low, and it seemed to be some ancient spell. The characters she carved on the sacred tree were not the demon characters or ancient characters of Daxia that were widely circulated in the world of immortal cultivation.
Soon, the characters meaning 'Lu Bei, Lord of the Heavenly Demon' were carved.
Tu Yuan held his hands on his head, closed his eyes and muttered something, continuing the sacrifice with unclear meaning.
In the eerie atmosphere, the sacred tree responded. The characters flashed with black light, and a powerful gravitational force emanated, sweeping away all of Tu Yuan's powerful magic power at the Tribulation Crossing stage.
Black spots of light were suspended in the air, and as Tu Yuan opened her eyes in horror, the Lord of the Demons, Lu Bei, responded to her.
It's terrible, I feel like my body is being hollowed out.
I'm going to die!
This was the first time that Tu Yuan received a response when she worshipped the mountain. Before that, when she worshipped the Five Emperors of the Five Directions, the latter ignored her. Although she practiced the Five Emperors Demon Seal and could use various magical powers, the Five Emperors of the Five Directions had never shown her any favor.
Not even a glance.
The inexperienced Tu Yuan successfully reached the top of the mountain. Before he could feel surprised, his magic power was drained, and his vitality was infinitely depleted, and he fell into fear.
The moment the black light came on, she lost control of the sacrificial ritual, her vitality was depleted, her lifespan was coming to an end, her curvy figure aged rapidly, and deep wrinkles appeared on her fair face.
At the moment when she was about to die of old age, a puzzled exclamation was uttered, and her vitality quickly returned, and her magic power was fully replenished.
Not only that, a technique was also engraved in his mind.
Tu Yuan's limbs felt weak, and he could vaguely feel the gazes looking down at him from above, as well as the absolute pressure that covered the sky.
On the other side, Lu Nan, the Lord of the Demons, looked at the magic words on the divine tablet for a long time without saying a word.
Someone took his name.
Lu Nan didn’t want to say the man’s name, as he swore.
Moreover, there was one thing that made him extremely dissatisfied, to the point that he felt fear.
He is the master of the demon world, but by engraving Lu Bei's name, he can still summon him...
"It's either me or him!"
Lu Nan's eyes glowed red, and a ray of darkness penetrated the gap between the worlds and sank into Tu Yuan's body and soul amid her screams.
"Get my magical power, carry out my mission..."
"Kill Lu Bei!"
