36: Good deeds will be rewarded and evil deeds will be punished (Part 1)

Chapter 36: Good and Evil Have Their Retribution

The old couple's mouths and noses were tightly covered by the terrified villagers.

Everyone else's faces were tense, hoping that once the bride entered the sedan chair, these terrifying demons would leave.

The monstrous shadows in the mist truly made their hearts tremble.

But at this moment, the demonic wedding procession did not leave.

Instead, a sinister voice suddenly came.

"Hehe, Lord of the Mountain's wedding feast, with all guests present, how can there be a lack of dishes?"

"We'll just turn you into dishes."

As soon as these words fell, the mist instantly surged and billowed towards the house.

Grotesque demonic shadows seemed to reach out their claws from within.

At this, everyone in the room instantly turned pale with fright, trembling like sieves.

The village chief, who was leading, quickly knelt down, trembling, and shouted in panic:

"Please don't, great one."

"We have put in effort and devotion for the Lord of the Mountain's wedding, and we have worshipped Lord of the Mountain day and night with utmost piety."

"Please spare us, great one."

As soon as these words fell, the mist in the room slowly stopped, then retracted.

"Hehe, that's true, but if I don't capture you, Lord of the Mountain's wedding feast will have no dishes, and Lord of the Mountain will be angry, and the guests will also be angry."

The sinister voice chuckled, but it sent chills down one's spine.

The village chief, who had lowered his head in fear, quickly raised it.

Fear made his face turn somewhat ferocious; he gritted his teeth and quickly replied:

"There are others."

"There are others."

"They disrespect Lord of the Mountain."

"Don't catch me!"

As soon as these words fell, a strong wind rose outside the house.

The mist swirled, instantly spreading to all sides of the village.

Ferocious, bizarre, and strangely shaped demonic shadows emerged from the mist, emitting sounds of laughter, anger, and curses.

They headed towards households where the lights were out.

Sounds of "bang, bang" as doors were broken open rose everywhere.

Following that were shouts of surprise.

Crying, cursing, agonizing screams.

Echoed throughout this peach blossom-filled village.

Before long, the mist retracted.

In the mist, the joyful sound of gongs and drums grew louder.

Only, it was mixed with desperate cries.

Then, the mist swirled back, the sedan chair at the door was lifted, and it dispersed towards outside the village.

Only a group of people, still in shock and slumped on the ground, were left in the main hall.

And not far away, on a large tree.

The white-clothed man watched the departing Lord of the Mountain's wedding procession, his eyes gleaming.

"Go!"

The next second, he moved with the wind, his figure quickly vanishing into the night.

The Green-Skirt Woman, seeing that her Senior Brother was somewhat impatient, smiled, her peach blossom eyes showing a hint of thought.

Then, she pinched her fingers, and a palm-sized talisman ignited.

Her cultivation was not high; she could only rely on a Spell to catch up to her Senior Brother, who didn't understand romance.

The next second, her body "bang" transformed into a swirl of green leaves.

The green leaves swirled, then vanished into the night.

...

Tiger Roar Valley.

That night, within a hundred-mile radius, demons who had achieved some success in Cultivating gathered here.

To congratulate the "King" of this area, Lord of the Mountain!

At this time, the scene inside the valley had greatly changed.

The mountain forest, once covered with white bones, had become a brightly lit mansion.

Guests arrived, and names were announced.

"West Wind Cave, Niu Dali, offering a thousand-year-old ginseng."

"Black Wind Cave, Xiao Xuanfeng, offering a Dragon Fruit."

...

As the names were announced.

One after another, demons stepped into the mansion.

Some had transformed into human forms, while others simply revealed their true forms.

Ghosts and monsters, bizarre and colorful.

"Why is there no sign of Young Master Liu from Jade Face Mountain?"

"And Jin Chanzi from Toad Cave."

"Strange, that guy clearly set off earlier than me."

...

The little demons sat at their seats, imitating human behavior and chatting.

Some even wore human clothes, but they were truly mismatched and uncomplimentary.

At this moment, a small demon suddenly cried out loudly.

"The wedding procession is here!"

The little demons immediately swarmed.

Not far away, in the dark forest, the sound of gongs and drums could be heard.

And the loud laughter of demons.

At this time, inside the sedan chair, the young bride, whose mouth was gagged, was filled with terror and despair.

She heard the laughter of the demons.

She also heard the cries of the other villagers.

Just then.

"What a poor little girl."

A soft, somewhat alluring voice suddenly sounded in the young bride's ear.

"Woo woo."

The girl was startled, a whimpering sound escaping her throat.

"Don't be afraid, I'm here to help you!"

As the words fell, a dagger was slipped into the girl's hand.

Following that, the female voice continued to speak.

"Hide it well. When that tiger demon approaches you later, use this to stab him."

"That way, I can save you."

"Little sister, you must remember it well."

The voice chuckled at the end, as if carrying some reassuring magic that calmed the originally terrified young bride significantly; she tightly clutched the cold dagger in her hand, hiding it in her sleeve.

Soon, the Lord of the Mountain's wedding procession arrived at the grand mansion.

The young bride felt the sedan chair being lowered.

Then came the surging laughter of demons from all around.

Noisy, piercing, soul-stirring, causing fear and unease.

"Lady of the Mountain, please descend from the sedan!"

A high-pitched voice sounded.

Then, a cold hand led the young bride down.

The girl suppressed her fear, clutching the dagger tightly.

She walked a few steps.

Then, she heard the demons' unified shout.

"Lord of the Mountain!"

Following that, the girl felt a powerful and terrifying aura approaching her.

Her body trembled uncontrollably.

Fear, like a tide, invaded her chest, nearly suffocating her.

A moment later, a hand lifted the girl's veil.

Revealing a tall shadow nearly two meters in height.

"Ah!"

The girl let out a terrified scream.

The dagger hidden in her hand fiercely stabbed towards the tall demonic shadow in front of her.

"Pfft!"

The sound of flesh being pierced rang out.

Then, a stream of green light points flowed from the girl's body along the dagger, piercing into the tall demonic shadow.

The demonic shadow trembled violently, letting out a huge tiger roar.

The girl's face turned pale from the shock, and she was sent flying backward by the Qi wave.

At this moment, a surprised voice suddenly sounded.

"Senior Brother, why aren't you making a move!"

As the words fell, a sword light suddenly streaked across the sky.

A white-clothed figure, like a Flying Sword meteor, flashed through the mountain air, directly striking the black-robed demonic shadow.

The black robe let out a tiger roar, and Devilish Qi surged out.

To block the sword's attack.

But the sword light was incomparably sharp, directly piercing through the Demonic Qi, like tearing silk, finally directly piercing through the demon's body.

The white-clothed man did not expect that this sudden sword attack would achieve success so easily.

Is Junior Sister's Dragon Subduing Incense really that powerful?

He frowned, a warning sign rising in his heart.

And at this moment, the black-robed gentleman, whose body was pierced, revealed a strange smile.

"Haha, I thought it was that long-haired monkey."

"I didn't expect my wedding to be so lively, and two more have come."

Saying that, the black-robed gentleman directly exploded into a mass of Demonic Qi.

Swarming towards the white-clothed man, like maggots to bone.

The white-clothed man moved with the wind, his sword light slashing wildly.

But as he retreated, his face changed drastically.

A figure suddenly appeared behind him.

A tiger claw instantly grew to the size of a washbasin, directly grabbing at his back.

"Sword Shield!"

The white-clothed man raised his sword finger.

A white barrier lit up around his body.

The tiger claw landed on the sword shield.

"Boom!"

The white-clothed man was sent flying back a hundred meters, crashing heavily against a mountain wall.

The sword shield shattered.
