Chapter 148 Everyone Gathers
"It's alright, I promised you, and I will fulfill my promise afterward."
Mu Shan nodded to Zhao Jinhua, looking at Luan Mo and the others like lambs to the slaughter.
The words fell.
Chaos Demon, Desolate Skull, and Bai Tianxiong all felt their livers and gallbladders tremble with fear!
They considered countless possibilities.
I never imagined that Zhao Jinhua was actually one of Mu Shan's people!
How could this be? Isn't Zhao Jinhua the head of the Dan Department of the Great Yun Kingdom and a true disciple of the Yunxia Sect?
Why would they side with Mu Shan?
Seeing Zhao Jinhua and Mu Shan standing together, their lives were in danger. After all, they couldn't even win against one against three before, let alone against two against three!
The demon said in disbelief, "You wicked Taoist, what benefits did Mu Shan promise you? Do you really think that by siding with him you can get what you want?"
Zhao Jinhua's demeanor clearly indicated that she was not being coerced by Mu Shan.
Judging from his attitude, it seemed more like Mu Shan had promised her some benefits.
As a half-step Foundation Establishment cultivator from the Yunxia Sect, even if he joins the Qingchi Demonic Sect, the Demonic Sect won't provide him with more resources than the Yunxia Sect!
Upon hearing Luan Mo's words, Zhao Jinhua laughed heartily: "What did Lord Mu promise me? He naturally promised me that I would achieve Foundation Establishment!"
"In this world, apart from Foundation Establishment and the Great Dao, what else could possibly move my heart?"
"Mu Shan is merely a half-step Foundation Establishment cultivator; even whether he can actually reach Foundation Establishment is uncertain, yet you believe him!"
Zhao Jinhua's answer not only failed to dispel the demon's doubts, but also made him even more incredulous.
He didn't even bother to clean up the magical pollution caused by Zhao Jinhua's supernatural power, the "Erosion Pill," before he had to blurt out a question.
How could there possibly be such a kind person in this world who would give up the opportunity to build a foundation instead of giving it to someone else!
Especially since this person is Mu Shan, whom they know well?
The Demonic Taoist felt both absurd and resentful.
Could it be that he, who was wise for half his life, actually fell into the hands of such a fool?
Zhao Jinhua shook his head disdainfully. He looked at the Chaotic Demon Daoist as if he were a pathetic clown. Zhao Jinhua's eyes were filled with fanaticism as he said, "That's right. Only a fool like you, who follows Lord Mu, would not understand the greatness of Lord Mu's talent!"
"An ant like you, who can't even break through to the Foundation Establishment stage despite your best efforts, naturally wouldn't understand that all of this is just the beginning for Lord Mu!"
"You thieving Taoist..."
The Demonic Taoist was speechless. He wanted to speak up and refute Zhao Jinhua's stupidity.
However, someone spoke up before him.
"Fellow Daoist Jinhua, I never imagined that a mere demonic cultivator who betrayed his sect could elicit such a comment from you. This is truly... truly chilling to my heart!"
The sudden sound startled everyone. When they looked in the direction of the sound, they saw a lively scene on the distant horizon.
The first to appear was a young cultivator riding a flying shuttle. He frowned when he saw the Jin Hua Daoist, Mu Shan, and Luan Mo, who were locked in a stalemate.
However, Bai Tianxiong was delighted to see the person who came.
"Good! This fellow Daoist has finally arrived. Now that we've gathered, we can definitely take advantage of the chaos to escape. After I trick him into protecting me during my breakthrough, the opportunities in this secret realm will still be mine!"
"I knew it! Heaven would never forsake my path as a hero!"
Behind him were two fierce-looking rogue cultivators.
Upon closer inspection, the demon recognized them as the two monks who had entered the secret realm earlier: the Ku'e Tuo and the Da Chi Dao Ren.
"What use are two rogue cultivators? These two idiots are probably not even worth killing by Mu Shan!"
The demon couldn't help but feel somewhat disappointed.
The two were in a sorry state, riding on a gloomy black cloud, closely following the young cultivator.
As for the last one, it was none other than Niu Gao, riding a white tiger with a chilling sword aura, and Daoist Qian Shu.
Logically speaking, Luan Mo should have felt flustered upon seeing Niu Gao, since the other party was recognized as the number one cultivator in these two countries, and even Mu Shan's prestige was slightly inferior to his.
However, at this moment, the Demon Lord was filled with excitement, and his previous disappointment vanished instantly.
Niu Gao is here! Good news!
With Lord Niu's arrival, the secret realm is now at peace!
With Lord Niu here, justice will prevail!
That hateful Mu Shan has finally been dealt with, and that traitor Zhao Jinhua who betrayed their expectations has also finally been taken care of.
