Demon King Attacks

"Human cultivation is divided into Qi-Surging Eight Meridians, Spirit Sea Enlightenment, Core-Holding Dharma, and Fusion Heart-Stirring. Qi-Surging Eight Meridians uses spiritual energy to cleanse the marrow; Spirit Sea Enlightenment opens the dantian into a Spirit Sea that gathers spiritual power; Core-Holding Dharma condenses spiritual power into a Golden Core, containing countless methods within it. I am a Core-Holding Dharma cultivator. As for the later Fusion Heart-Stirring realm, many people cannot so much as glimpse it even after exhausting their entire lives."

On Baiqiao University's athletic field, Mo Haosheng sat cross-legged atop a flying sword, speaking as he explained the path of cultivation to the tens of thousands gathered below.

The entire city had a population of over ten million. Though it had suffered devastating losses over the past few days, the remaining numbers were still immense, with people continuously streaming toward Baiqiao University.

The other Luoshui Sect disciples were testing everyone's Spirit Roots. All stood obediently in line, not daring to make a sound. As they gazed at Mo Haosheng, who seemed like an immortal, most wore looks of yearning. Those who looked utterly dejected had already been eliminated and could not join the Luoshui Sect.

"Spirit Roots determine one's talent for cultivation. Everyone has a Spirit Root, and they are usually divided according to the five elements: metal, wood, water, fire, and earth. Mixed Spirit Roots have the poorest talent, possessing all five elemental attributes and thus no outstanding attribute at all. Next come Four Spirit Roots and Three Spirit Roots. Reaching Three Spirit Roots already makes one a genius, and the great sects will throw their doors open for you. The most monstrous talent is a Single Spirit Root—exceptionally pure. Cultivating techniques of the same attribute allows one to advance a thousand miles in a day. Our Luoshui Sect has only one person with a Single Spirit Root."

"Beyond the five-element Spirit Roots, there are other special-attribute Spirit Roots. When you roam the world in the future, you may encounter them."

Mo Haosheng spoke calmly, every inch the immortal cultivator—neither pleased nor saddened, detached from the mundane world.

Within the crowd, Nan Xiaopao listened with longing. It was not just her; most of those present were young men and women at an age full of fantasies, their blood boiling with excitement.

Mo Haosheng swept his gaze over the crowd and said, "Most of you will not be able to return to the Luoshui Sect with us. It is already the Luoshui Sect's mercy to take in those with potential. However, before we leave, I will leave behind methods of cultivation for you. From then on, everything will depend on your own fortunes."

The moment he said this, everyone grew excited and shouted their thanks to the great immortal.

Though Mo Haosheng was arrogant, he was not stupid. There would always be people who could make a name for themselves despite poor talent. He was planting good karma for himself.

Just then, he spotted Nan Xiaopao. His eyes narrowed, and he immediately waved his hand, using spiritual power to lift her before the crowd.

Nan Xiaopao panicked, but fortunately, she soon landed on the ground.

"You possess One Dragon Power. You are no ordinary person. What is your background?"

Mo Haosheng stared at Nan Xiaopao and asked in a deep voice, drawing sideward glances from the other Luoshui Sect disciples.

One Dragon Power?

How was that possible!

How could a mortal possess such strength?

Even Spirit Sea Enlightenment cultivators found it difficult to attain One Dragon Power!

Could this girl have an extraordinary background?

The Luoshui Sect disciples were secretly astonished, studying Nan Xiaopao again and again.

Tens of thousands erupted in an uproar. One Dragon Power sounded incredibly formidable.

The Baiqiao University students also recognized Nan Xiaopao. Wasn't she Su Yi's companion?

Recalling Su Yi's terrifying strength that day made them shudder.

"I'm just an ordinary person. What, do you have a problem with me?"

Nan Xiaopao gritted her teeth and snorted. She could not expose Su Yi. She understood that a man was guilty for possessing a jade ring. A pill that could make her strength soar was certainly no ordinary thing, and it might very well stir the greed of these Luoshui Sect disciples.

Mo Haosheng froze for a moment, then smiled.

As he carefully examined Nan Xiaopao, he found her pretty and adorable. Her outfit also stood out among the crowd, stirring within him a faint desire to possess her.

"Become my personal maid, and I will bring you back to the Luoshui Sect and guide you onto the path of seeking immortality. What do you say?"

Mo Haosheng asked with a smile. Many girls on the athletic field looked at Nan Xiaopao with envy and jealousy. Mo Haosheng was handsome and possessed great divine abilities; if it were another girl, she would certainly have agreed.

Who would have thought that Nan Xiaopao would refuse without a second thought? "Forget it. I'm already someone else's wife. My mother said women must uphold their virtue."

After saying that, she turned and left.

Compared to the Luoshui Sect, Su Yi mattered more to her.

Seeing this, several girls who considered themselves beautiful hurried forward.

"Immortal master, I'll be your maid!"

"Immortal master, what do you think of me?"

"I can go with you!"

"I'm prettier than her. Take me with you!"

A dark glint flashed through Mo Haosheng's eyes. He ignored the girls below and did not go after Nan Xiaopao.

He snorted inwardly. You dared reject me? Once night falls, I'll make you serve me obediently!

Before so many people, he naturally did not dare forcibly seize Nan Xiaopao. After all, the Luoshui Sect was a famous righteous sect.

The Luoshui Sect disciples also laughed. They had not expected anyone to dare reject Mo Haosheng. It was truly a rare sight.

Although Nan Xiaopao possessed One Dragon Power, she did not have a trace of spiritual power within her. Thus, while they were surprised, they did not fear her.

The Luoshui Golden Eagle let out a cry high in the sky, as if it too were mocking Mo Haosheng.

Nan Xiaopao returned to the dormitory in a huff. At that moment, Su Yi had just finished consuming another Dragon Strength Pill. Without turning his head, he asked, "What happened?"

"Isn't it that Luoshui Sect guy? He actually wanted me to be his personal maid! I'm furious! Once I get stronger, I'll make him regret it!"

Nan Xiaopao sat on the bed with her arms folded over her chest, huffing endlessly.

The moment Su Yi heard this, his expression darkened.

Nan Xiaopao was the girl he liked. How could he allow someone else to lay a hand on her?

He said nothing, but he remembered the matter. Once he gathered Hundred Dragon Strength, he would definitely teach that Luoshui Sect fellow a lesson.

In truth, his current strength was already enough to sweep through those Luoshui Sect disciples. But to be safe, he still wanted to finish absorbing the Dragon Strength Pills as soon as possible.

Rumble—

Rolling Demon Clouds swept in from the horizon, shrouding the city streets amid the mountains. The tens of thousands inside Baiqiao University also looked up, thinking a torrential rain was about to descend.

"What powerful demonic aura... Everyone, be careful! Old Lord Qiyang must have come!"

Mo Haosheng opened his eyes and shouted in a grave voice. He immediately leaped up, and his flying sword fell into his hand.

The other Luoshui Sect disciples also drew their swords, preparing for battle.

This scene made the people on the athletic field sense that something was wrong, and all of them looked toward the sky in terror.

Black clouds churned high above, demonic aura surging into the heavens and blocking out the sunlight. Faintly, a figure could be seen standing atop the clouds.

It was Old Lord Qiyang!

Old Lord Qiyang looked down expressionlessly at Mo Haosheng and the others. The killing intent in his gaze made cold sweat seep down their backs.

Mo Haosheng inwardly cried that things were bad and hurriedly called out, "Old Lord, what is the meaning of this?"

"Was it you who killed Red Blood?"

Old Lord Qiyang asked, his voice like rolling thunder exploding over all of Baiqiao University.

Red Blood?

The thousands of teachers and students at Baiqiao University all thought of the Red Blood Snake King. Could this be that snake demon's backer?

At that thought, they became even more terrified. No one dared make a sound.

"Red Blood?"

Mo Haosheng froze, then quickly explained, "Since arriving in Qiling Land, we have not killed a single demon!"

Tens of thousands on the athletic field stared at him in shock. Mo Haosheng's words shattered their understanding of immortal cultivators.

Shouldn't immortal cultivators be slaying demons and eliminating evil?

Why was Mo Haosheng acting so humble before a demon?
