Chapter 149 Junior Sister
Qingxu Marsh.
Many small and medium-sized forces brought their disciples to help.
The demonic cultivators have gained power, but they do not completely control the cultivation continent.
To obtain more resources, the only option is to plunder. The five major sects and seven great families have incredibly deep foundations, so demonic cultivators dare not act rashly, leaving small and medium-sized forces to suffer.
At this moment, some people stood up and said they would lead everyone to defeat the demonic cultivators; they were the most excited.
If they don't take more initiative, they might be next.
Looking at the Qingxu Swamp where the demonic cultivators were gathered, they couldn't wait to rush in and slaughter their way through.
only……
These small and medium-sized forces also brought around eight hundred disciples.
Eight hundred members of the Yihe Sect gathered together, dressed in various colors, huddled in twos and threes, and their chatter exuded a roguish air, like a group of thugs.
They were nothing like the cultivators from other forces, who were dressed neatly and uniformly, with noble pride and high spirits on their faces, making them truly enviable.
Unfortunately, those spirited young men were cannon fodder.
They couldn't find many cultivators who had surpassed the Core Formation stage.
Although the demonic cultivators that Chen An brought were disguised, they were at least capable of fighting on the battlefield.
It's one thing for small and medium-sized forces to have limited strength, but for large forces to be in the same situation is disheartening.
Sure enough, the old fox was cunning and slippery in his dealings.
It's really difficult to wipe out the Qingxu Swamp stronghold with just these people. It's definitely not an easy job. Otherwise, how could Qu Simu, who led the way, have given up this opportunity to make a name for himself?
As Chen An was secretly cursing some unpleasant words in his heart, he was attracted by a clear female voice.
"Little Cripple"
She was all too familiar with that title; even her adorable junior sister had come.
Xue Shumo is growing up. I wonder if she will still be as lovable as before when she grows up.
Fu Gui glanced at Chen An, then at Xue Shumo, let out a long breath, and silently took several steps back before tiptoeing away from the scene.
Before leaving, he couldn't help but marvel at his human form.
If he were in beast form now, he would likely fall victim to Xue Shumo's wickedness again.
Chen An smiled and patted his junior sister's hair, saying with a kind expression, "Shu Mo, you've grown up."
……
"What kind of talk is that, you little cripple? Have you been possessed?" Xue Shumo stiffly took a step back, straightened her back, and stared at Chen An. Although she was disrespectful in her words, she had a deep feeling of treating her as an elder.
how to say?
This side of Chen An was both familiar and unfamiliar to her.
Chen An used to be a bit eccentric, but at least he wasn't a stubborn old man who liked to put on airs. He's changed so much over the years.
Strange, so strange.
How is she supposed to communicate with Chen An? Does she have to treat Chen An the way she treats her father?
In the end, Xue Shumo rejected her own idea and prepared to slip away to find Xuan Qingyuan and ask him what to do.
Seeing his junior sister's unfamiliarity and distance, and the barely perceptible disdain, Chen An coughed awkwardly twice.
She had a vague feeling that this shouldn't be her reaction, but it seemed that this was the only answer she could recall.
"Oh, alright, alright, what brings you here?" Chen An patted Xue Shumo's shoulder with a smile, trying to ease the awkwardness.
With this pat, Xue Shumo felt even more that she was an elder. She obediently patted her head and whispered, "I missed you, so I came to see you. You go ahead and do your work, I'll go find Senior Brother Qingyuan."
The retreat was so fast that Chen An could barely catch a glimpse of it.
Sigh, as expected, we didn't spend enough time together, so our feelings weren't deep enough...
Using this moment of sadness as a springboard, Chen An got down to business.
Feelings can be developed slowly, but if you can't kill a demonic cultivator, then it's truly over.
Since the disciples we brought can't contribute much, we can only ask the elders and sect leader to do more.
Chen An transmitted his voice to Chen Mingde: "Go and inform all the forces that we will discuss matters in the tent in one hour."
Upon receiving the order, Chen Mingde didn't dare to delay for a moment and hurried off.
Those forces that received the order behaved in different ways, but at least most of them were hopeful.
Seeing that the situation was safe, Fugui sneaked out.
"Phew, they're finally gone. That scared me to death." He patted his chest, stretched, and looked at the tent in the distance. "I'm going to take a nap. Wake me up later."
"Let's go, I need to rest for a while too."
The man and the cat, one in front and one behind, went to their respective tents.
An hour was enough for everyone to gather. After everyone had been there for quite some time, Chen An finally brought Fu Gui out.
Calculating the time, I was a full fifteen minutes late.
During that fifteen minutes, Fu Gui was so anxious that his feet could barely touch the ground. He could have easily gone over there, but Chen An refused, insisting on giving the old guys a taste of their own medicine.
This isn't just a show of force to the old man; it's a clear attempt to intimidate him.
"Esteemed elders, everyone has arrived."
With a smile in his eyes, Chen An gestured for the small and medium-sized forces who had stood up to sit down, and then, ignoring the others whose faces had darkened, he also sat down.
……
"Sect Leader Chen'an, what are your arrangements?" Qu Simu asked with a slight bow, though he was displeased.
After speaking, he took a sip of tea and waited for a reply.
Chen An pushed the teacup in front of him forward a little and said, "Just now, I met the disciples and cultivators brought by various forces. I really admire your dedication."
"Sect Leader Chen'an, you flatter me." Su Huo stroked the stubble on his chin, clenching his fist with a forced smile.
He had to smile even when he was being ridiculed and mocked, thanks to Qu Simu's brilliant idea.
"Now that I've taken on this leadership role, I naturally have to shoulder more responsibility." Chen An glanced around and continued, "The Zhaoning Sect and the various smaller sects will join me in guarding the southern exit from the south. As for the rest, I'll leave it to you all. What do you say?"
After hearing Chen An's words, everyone present felt that they had gotten a good deal, so they naturally agreed.
The original name of Qingxu Swamp was Qingxu. In ancient times, a powerful demon died there.
From then on, whether birds or cultivators, once they entered this place, they could no longer take off.
Calm as a swamp, yet once you step in, it's hard to leave; this place has earned the name Qingxu Swamp.
Because it is surrounded by mountains on all sides, and the mountains surrounding it are broken cliffs that have been smashed open, it is almost impossible to climb them by brute force.
The only way out is through a shallow cave on the south side.
Such a place is really unsuitable as a base, but a large part of what makes demonic cultivators demonic is their ruthlessness in the face of death.
Even knowing that they might die inside, they were willing to try in order to find the remains of that powerful demon.
As arranged by Chen An, the five major sects, along with the seven major families, stood on the raised cliff, using long-range attacks to first eliminate a large number of demonic cultivators, and then surround them.
Once surrounded, the demonic cultivators must escape.
The shallow cave guarded by Chen An and the others is the only exit, and the demonic cultivators are determined to break through it at all costs, so it is of utmost importance.
Of course, Chen An wasn't stupid enough to leave the difficult tasks to himself.
During the long-range attack, a group of weak demonic cultivators were eliminated. Anyone who could reach the shallow cave must be at least a leader. By taking in these leaders, she would have many more subordinates.
