Chapter 62: Chapter 62: A bunch of mortals dare to be enemies with the sovereign!

Soon, led by Yang Changsheng and others, Master Xu made his way to the summit of Eight Public Mountain.

The entire Eight Public Mountain is not very tall, only seven to eight hundred meters in height, but thanks to the clean water and beautiful scenery and its proximity to the city district, living in a big villa on the mountain, one can wake up to see the sunrise in the early morning and overlook the entire panorama of Jiangnan City.

The vacation villa on the mountain has been built for many years now, catering to the medium and high-end consumer group!

If the Eight Public Mountain project were to be launched, it would bring at least ten billion in annual revenue to Jiangnan City!

However, due to frequent construction accidents, they had no choice but to halt the project!

"Master Xu, this is our Number One Villa on Eight Public Mountain! Those workers also had accidents inside this Number One Villa!"

Yang Changsheng pointed at the big villa in front and said with some concern.

It was unclear if it was due to the weather or because they had ascended to the mountain summit, but when everyone arrived on the terrace of the Number One Villa, they felt a chill rising from the soles of their feet to the crown of their heads, sending shivers down their spines!

"Indeed, it’s here!"

Master Xu’s eyebrows twitched, and he couldn’t help but let out a light cry!

"What... What’s happening? Master Xu, what’s going on?"

Yang Changsheng was startled and stood behind Master Xu, asking somewhat timidly.

Master Xu ignored him and stared at the location of the Number One Villa, his Eight Diagram Array Plate in hand, the pointer at the center spinning rapidly!

"Pfft!"

Master Xu bit his own tongue and shouted a spell, spraying the essence blood from the tip of his tongue onto the Eight Diagram Array Plate!

"Evil spirits and malevolent ghosts—reveal yourselves!"

As his words concluded, above the Number One Villa, where the sky had originally been cloudless and azure clear like a lake, changed abruptly after Master Xu ended his incantation. Suddenly, the wind and clouds surged, and a terrifying black vortex emerged, dense with Demonic Qi and flowing with a bloody light, giving people the chills!

"Oh my!"

"Truly a master! A great master!"

After witnessing Master Xu’s techniques, the group of investors on-site were shocked, their eyes widened in astonishment, gazing at Master Xu’s figure with admiration!

"Whoo!"

The moment the black Qi appeared, the surrounding temperature plummeted, and even the ground was covered with a layer of frost, spreading in all directions!

At this moment.

Although it was already autumn, Jiangnan City was still hot, with everyone wearing short sleeves, hardly withstanding such extreme cold?

Everyone shivered from the cold, frantically rubbing their arms, and even their eyebrows and hair were coated with a layer of white frost!

A terrifying dark shadow loomed above the Number One Villa, its eyes glowing like lanterns, and it said in a low growl:

"A bunch of mortals dare to be enemies with the venerable one! Courting death—!"

"What is this thing?"

"Good heavens! Is this the thing causing frequent construction accidents on our Eight Public Mountain?"

After seeing the dark shadow, Yang Changsheng and the other leaders, although deeply shocked, still managed to keep their composure.

After all, with Master Xu ahead of them, everyone wasn’t too afraid, and there was even a bit of excitement!

At this time, Lin Fan and others had also arrived at the platform on the summit, and Ancient State’s wealthy individuals like Jiang Yunzhi, Yang Jinghui, and Zhou Jingrong also felt a chill in their hearts upon seeing the dark shadow!

"Humph! A mere demon dares to harm people in broad daylight? Today, I shall slay you!"

Master Xu shouted coldly, showing the side of a true adept.

He drew from his waist, and a Copper Coin Sword, made from copper coins and red string, instantly appeared in his hand, and once again he sprayed essence blood from his mouth onto the Copper Coin Sword!

Master Xu’s mana surged within him, flowing entirely into the Copper Coin Sword and slashing down at the terrifying shadow in the sky!

"Sizzle—!"

The dark qi shrouding the mountain peak was sliced open, and sunlight from the outside world poured in!

Seeing this scene, everyone’s hearts were lifted with joy. It seemed that the filthy thing within the dark qi would be slain by Master Xu!

"Heh heh, I am the Demon Lord of the Demon Realm, how dare you, mere ants, act violently before me?"

The shadow sneered coldly, stretching out a pitch-black giant hand, roaring: "To me—you shall die!"

As the voice fell, the pitch-black hand collided with Master Xu’s Copper Coin Sword!

"Clash!"

The Copper Coin Sword completely fell apart, while the pitch-black hand didn’t stop, fiercely slapping towards Master Xu’s body!

"Bang!"

Master Xu’s body, like a fallen leaf in the autumn breeze, tumbled through the air seven or eight times, before thudding heavily to the ground, vomiting a mouthful of fresh blood, his aged cheek turning deathly pale, as if mourning the loss of parents!

"Master Xu!"

At this moment, Yang Changsheng and the other investors were completely petrified, even Master Xu could not be the opponent?

Meanwhile, the shadow above villa number one took shape, forming a demonic figure, with lantern-like blood-red eyes, gazing down upon the crowd below:

"And you lot, a bunch of ants, dare to disturb my seclusion? Since that’s the case, I grant you—death!"

"Run, run fast!"

Master Xu used his last bit of strength to roar back at the people.

Only then did the crowd come to their senses, terrified out of their wits, no longer able to think of anything else as they turned and ran towards the foot of Eight Public Mountain.

But after running more than a hundred steps, they were horrified to find that no matter how they moved their legs, they were merely stepping in place. They were only twenty or thirty steps away from the path down the mountain, yet no matter what, they couldn’t get past it!

The dark qi surrounding villa number one had firmly trapped them!

"Are we really going to die here today?"

Upon witnessing this sinister scene, everyone’s legs went weak, and they all collapsed to the ground!

"It’s over..."

Yang Changsheng’s face was deathly pale, his heart nearly stopping.

"I’m still young, I don’t want to die..."

A pretty young female secretary, terrified out of her wits, had long since lost track of her notebook, sitting on the ground, trembling.

"I don’t want to die either, I still have a wife and kids!"

A man in his thirties said, his voice trembling.

"Hehe! None of you shall escape, after swallowing you, my power will surge once more! Were it not for my Divine Soul being damaged, how would I have fallen to this star? You’re nothing but ants, once my strength is restored, this entire star will become Shura Hell!" The shadow laughed wildly.

"Let’s start with you, foolish ant!"

As the shadow spoke, it opened its gaping maw, lunging to swallow Master Xu!

"Master Xu!"

The crowd screamed in terror, completely dumbstruck!

Just as the great shadow was about to devour Master Xu, a faint voice came from behind the crowd:

"Master Xu, if you kneel down and beg me now, I will save your life, what do you say?"

In shock, the crowd turned around to look, only to see a youth, indifferent to the overwhelming Demonic Qi, walking slowly from a distance with measured steps!
