Chapter 23: Subjugating the Powerful Demon

  "Orange shouted in surprise: "Damn! How did you provoke the Pixiu?!"

  "Cut the nonsense and get rid of it quickly!"

  "Big brother, I can't defeat the Jiao Tu, it's too strong..."

  Zhang Fei Yang said in surprise: "You claim to be the Hundred Refining Demon Lord, yet a thousand-year-old spiritual artifact can't even eliminate a hundred-year-old demonic beast? Are you kidding me?"

  "Frankly, I'm a thousand-year-old spiritual artifact, but my ability is auxiliary in nature. My golden light can eliminate demonic beasts like the fox spirit, but against something on the level of the Qiong Qi, I'm really powerless... after all, I'm not an attack-type artifact."

  "Damn it! Earlier they said something about being the supreme ruler of the nine continents, and how mighty and powerful they were. It was all just a scam!"

  "Sorry..."

  At this time, Shu Baixue had already joined forces with Xie Wu, and although Xie Wu had several hundred years of cultivation and was extremely ferocious, he couldn't swallow Shu Baixue in one go. However, Shu Baixue was constantly being scratched by him and had already suffered some injuries.

  Zhang Fei could have taken the opportunity to escape, but he was unwilling to be a coward who would abandon others in danger. So, grasping his alchemy furnace, he launched an attack with his flying ant legion.

  The alchemy furnace's mouth flashed with golden light, and thirty flying ants flew out like rays of light. A yellowish-orange piece wrapped around the head of the fierce beast, constantly stinging and biting.

  This hundred-year-old demon beast was finally able to withstand the thirty flying ants that had been refined with ants, and it only saw its tiger palm quickly wiping its face, and those flying ants died instantly. Although the flying ant army did not hurt the beast at all, it obviously relieved the pressure on Xue Baiyun.

  Zhang Fei Yang thought to himself, "The Flying Ant Legion won't do, next time I'll have to find something more powerful to refine into a demon. Refining ants into demons may be quick, but the effect is not good!"

  Shu Bai Xue looked curiously at Zhang Fei Yang's alchemy furnace, her eyes were sharp and she had a wide range of knowledge, so she immediately realized that it was an alchemy furnace for refining demons!

  He thought it was Shu Baixue's 'trick' that brought out the flying ants and attacked Shu Baixue even more crazily.

  Zhang Fei let out a loud roar and charged forward bravely, joining forces with Shu Baisuo to fight against the fierce beast. The battle was extremely intense, but the beast still held the upper hand.

  Tangerine in Zhang Fei's mind kept saying: "Master, although I can't kill the Qilin, as long as you knock it out and it loses consciousness, I can put it into the Tian Di Feng Yun Lian Yao Furnace and refine it into your pet mount."

  Zhang Fei, upon hearing this, immediately jumped out of the battle and asked: "How difficult is it to knock out the Qilin? I've risked my life several times to hit its head, but it just shakes its head and recovers!"

  "Trust me, the Shocking Demon Hammer in your hand is one that I've carefully selected and kept. Although its combat strength isn't very high, it has a lot of spiritual power added to it, and the dizzying special skill is also extremely effective. As long as you keep hitting the狴犴's head non-stop, it will definitely become dizzy! However, be careful not to let the狴犴 bite your arm, or it'll break your bones!"

  Zhang Fei let out a soft "hmm" and looked over at Shu Baixue, who was already lying on the ground, her small leg badly injured and bleeding profusely, staining her white pants red. She couldn't move anymore.

  The tiger opened its big mouth, let out a loud roar, and was about to devour Shu Baixue. Shu Baixue's face turned pale, she had the strength but couldn't use it, it was extremely difficult.

  Just as all hope seemed lost, Zhang Fei let out a loud shout and the Shocking Demon-Beating Mace emitted a dazzling golden light that caught the attention of the Qilin.

  With a twist of his head, he suddenly saw Zhang Fei Yang pounce over, the Shocking Demon Hammer "Boom Boom Boom" pounding on his head, making him feel dizzy and disoriented. He shook his head violently, but as soon as he came to, he was knocked out again by the hammer. This back-and-forth continued until Zhang Fei Yang endured several scratches, but managed to hold on. Fortunately, the tiger's paw strength wasn't strong during the dizziness, and finally, with a low "hum", his head drooped, and he collapsed onto the stone.

  Zhang Fei Yang's descending Shocking Demon Mallet was instantly withdrawn mid-air, and Xiū Lí had already fallen into a daze. If he continued to hit like this, it would only wake Xiū Lí up again, putting him back into a half-awake, half-dazed state, which meant they'd have to start all over again. The danger was too great, so he hastily stopped his hand.

  "Hurry up and put the bear away! It'll wake up in a few seconds!"

  Tangerine's urgent cry appeared in Zhang Fei Yang's mind.

  Zhang Feiyang didn't dare to slack off, pinching the Lian Yao furnace and shining it on the body of the Qiu Yu, a golden light shot onto the Qiu Yu's body, the Qiu Yu's body floated towards the Lian Yao furnace, getting smaller and smaller until it finally entered the Lian Yao furnace!

  "Success! Master, you're not bad at all! Winning with weakness, this battle can be legendary! However, remember that next time don't fight against a too strong demon beast, because some demon beasts have high spiritual power and the dizzying effect of the Shocking Beast Hammer is ineffective against them. If we encounter that kind of demon beast, even I won't be able to do anything!" Orange warned solemnly.

  "Got it!" Zhang Fei Yang said.

  The fire monkeys in the Fire Monkey Stone Forest, seeing that Zhang Fei had taken away the Huo Lang, all quieted down, one by one looking around with raised eyes, scratching their ears and cheeks, appearing very innocent.

  Zhang Fei Yang walked up to Shu Bai Xue's side and said: "Shu young lady, you're injured..." He wanted to say more but stopped.

  Xu Baixue gritted her teeth in pain, but still turned her face away and said: "Don't bother about me!"

  Zhang Feiyang said: "You've injured your leg, if you don't treat it in time, it will leave a scar." As he spoke, his spirit entered the alchemy furnace, and a piece of "Golden Scar Medicine" flew out with his thoughts, falling into Zhang Feiyang's hand. Zhang Feiyang went to lift Shu Baixue's pants, wanting to apply the medicine for her.

  Shu Baixue held up her Frosty Plum Blossom and shouted: "You lecher! Don't touch me!"

  Zhang Feiyang was startled, and threw the golden medicine pouch onto Shu Baixue's waist, saying: "You quickly apply it, after applying it well, leave Fire Monkey Stone Forest by yourself. After all, this is their territory, staying here isn't safe. Moreover, the Qilin are definitely not just one, it's best to leave early."

  Shu Baixue snorted and still had an angry face.

  Zhang Fei swung his serpent-headed staff and ran into the valley, leaving only Shu Baisui behind. But then Shu Baisui shouted from behind: "You lecher! Return my innocence!"

  Zhang Feiyang ran for a while in the thicket, and saw three "female" inner disciples hurrying towards him. It was Xiaolan and the other two. Zhang Feiyang recognized the three of them and immediately said: "Shu Niang is at Huohou Stone Forest, go save her quickly!" After leaving these words, he ran away.

  Xiao Lan saw Zhang Fei Yang's nervous expression, which didn't seem like a lie, and she was worried. She immediately brought two female disciples to the Huo Hou Shi Lin, found Shu Bai Xue, and the three women supported Shu Bai Xue as they left the Huo Hou Shi Lin. However, Shu Bai Xue did not use the golden wound medicine given by Zhang Fei Yang, but instead threw it into the Huo Hou Shi Lin and used her own medicinal paste.

  Xiao Lan asked whose golden wound medicine was on the ground, Shu Baixue just didn't speak, Zhang Feiyang's golden wound medicine had a very good effect, it was a rare high-quality golden wound medicine, Xiao Lan took a look and knew immediately, so she secretly picked it up and put it in her bosom, to be used in the future.

  Zhang Feiyang continued to walk in the valley, searching for Huang Juan and Cao Wan. Along the way, he encountered three wild boars and a large horned cow, all of which were easily defeated by Zhang Feiyang. He then collected their teeth and horns into the alchemy furnace. Looking at the sky, it was almost two hours later, so he headed towards where Dog Head Immortal's carriage was parked.

  Zhang Feiyang sensed the spiritual power point in his dantian xianhe, and found that the pure spiritual power had reached 45 points. Just now, when fighting with Qiu Yu, it was extremely dangerous, and he must have suddenly realized a certain immortal machine between life and death, increasing ten spiritual power points at once. Zhang Feiyang touched his dantian, feeling warm and very relieved.

  Huang Juan and Cao Wan had been waiting at Gou Tou Xian Cheng's place for a long time. When they saw Zhang Fei Yang, Huang Juan immediately ran over to him and said: "Zhang Fei Yang, where did you run off to? Didn't Shu Bai Xue give you a hard time?"

  "There isn't! Don't ask anymore!"

  Huang Juan stared at Zhang Feiyang in shock, her eyes blinking repeatedly, unable to understand why Zhang Feiyang suddenly became angry.

  Zhang Fei Yang plopped down on the grass, pinched the Lian Yao, shone it on the ground, and shot all the spoils of war onto the ground. Huang Juan and Cao Wan came over, and the three of them divided the spoils equally among themselves.

  The remaining inner disciples also gathered around the Dog Head Immortal one after another, and Shu Baixue, with Xiao Lan's support, and two other female inner disciples walked over as well, instantly attracting many people's attention.

  Although many inner disciples were injured in this action, Shu Baixue was a famous and beautiful inner disciple of Biyun Mountain, with a great reputation. As soon as she got hurt, it caused quite a stir.

  Zhang Feiyang gazed at Shu Baixue, and Shu Baixue also glanced at him. Fortunately, the bleeding from Shu Baixue's small leg had stopped, wrapped in white cloth, but to Zhang Feiyang's eyes, a pang of heartache, after all, Shu Baixue's injury was largely his own responsibility.

  Shu Bai Xue boarded the Dog Head Immortal Carriage, sat down, and had a calm expression. If not for seeing her small 'legs', it would be impossible to know that she was injured. Xiao Lan took out the golden wound medicine from her underwear pocket and looked at it under the sunlight.

  Zhang Fei's heart skipped a beat, and he thought to himself: "Shu Niang is indeed a strong-willed woman! I gave her such good medicine for her injury, but she refused to use it, choosing instead to endure the pain. It seems that Shu Niang will definitely be looking for trouble with me again in the future! Although Shu Niang is a beautiful woman, this is really a headache-inducing thing!"

  Huang Juan and Zhang Feiyang said their goodbyes, then hugged a sack of spoils of war, happily boarded the Dog Head Immortal Ship.

  Zhang Feiyang and Cao Wan boarded another Dog Head Immortal Carriage, only to find that most of the inner disciples on board had suffered varying degrees of injury. Several were lying down, unable to get up. It seemed that this operation was too difficult for the inner disciples!

  Two fairy ships flew into the sky, and the inner disciples who had been shouting and calling earlier were now quiet. They all looked tired in body and mind, and wanted to hurry back to their dormitory to rest properly.

  The dog-headed immortal floated to the inside of the Azure Cloud Mountain, above the 'Gate' pavilion, and began to float downwards. Zhang Feiyang looked over in that direction, colliding with Shu Baixue's resentful gaze, which seemed angry, hateful, sorrowful, and worried, and also carried many unspoken questions. Zhang Feiyang's expression wavered for a moment, the two people just stared at each other like this, but their line of sight was blocked by the dog-headed immortal.

  Back to the dormitory, Zhang Fei had a good sleep and woke up when it was already dark. To continue sleeping? Obviously not possible. So he came to the library, returned "Alchemy Record" to the library, and borrowed a copy of "Demon Refining Record".

  The old man in the book pavilion looked at Zhang Feiyang, who had borrowed "Lian Dan Lu" and then borrowed "Lian Yao Lu", seemingly interested in alchemy. However, there were many strange people in the inner pavilion, some of whom only read books related to spiritual swords, while others only read books related to jade grass. The old man had seen a lot and was no longer surprised.
