Chapter 41: It's OK to have a clear conscience
"Come here you three."

After hearing the words of the strange scholar, the three great monsters did not dare to refuse and flew over immediately.

"senior."

The three great demons bowed respectfully, and at the same time secretly glanced at the embarrassed and weird scholar.

After discovering that the other party's condition had only deteriorated slightly, he couldn't help but feel shocked.

It turns out that strong people above the ninth rank cannot be judged by common sense.

If they were hit by even one of the terrifying thunderbolts that just fell from the sky, they would probably die on the spot.

And this strange scholar actually took on three of them.

The Taoist in green robe raised his head slightly, looked at the strange scholar, and asked tentatively: "Senior, your injury...?"

"Hmm?" The strange scholar frowned and glared at the Taoist in green robe, and said in a deep voice: "Put away your little thoughts. Even if I am seriously injured, it is still easy for me to crush a few of you ants to death."

That's right.

He was careless just now and underestimated the strength of the old Taoist from Longhu Mountain.

Under normal circumstances, the ninth rank would be no different from an ant in his hands.

The Taoist in green robe felt a sinking feeling in his heart, and he quickly explained: "Senior, you misunderstood, I have absolutely no such intention."

After saying this, the Taoist in green robe quickly lowered his head to show his weakness and express his attitude.

He was sure of one thing, that this strange scholar was not sent by his master.

What puzzled the Taoist in green robe was that the spiritual energy was exhausted at that time and the ninth rank was already rare. Where did this strange scholar come from and why did he appear here?

Thinking of this, the old Taoist in green robe became even more wary of this strange scholar.

When Tiger Lord and Dragon Lord heard this, they were stunned.

Isn’t this weird scholar in the same group as the Taoist priest in green robe?

So what is his purpose of coming to Baiqiu Mountain this time...?
Could it be that it was also for the spiritual charm of the Nine-tailed Heavenly Fox? If so, then there would probably be nothing for them to do next.

Fighting for something with a strong man above the ninth rank is tantamount to seeking death.

Although the opportunity to advance to the demon fairyland is important, one must also have the life to advance.

"I don't think you have the guts to do that."

After the strange scholar said this coldly, he sat cross-legged and looked at the three ninth-grade monsters.

I was secretly calculating in my heart...

This Taoist in green robe transformed himself into a demon with the help of Taoism. He had a restrained aura and a deep mind, and he seemed to be on guard against himself.

The armor of the dragon monster is too thick. If I were still in my prime, it would be fine. But in my current state, I am afraid I won’t be able to deliver a fatal blow. I might end up losing more than I gain.

You only have this tiger monster left...

Tiger Lord also felt the strange scholar's gaze at this moment. He smiled awkwardly and asked, "Senior, do you have any instructions?"

Being stared at by this strange scholar, Tiger King felt creepy.

The strange scholar said calmly: "You have good qualifications."

Hearing the words of the strange scholar, the three great demons were all stunned. They did not expect such words to come out of the mouth of this strange scholar.

Tiger Jun was in a good mood after reacting, and quickly said, "Thank you for the compliment, senior."

Being able to be appreciated by a strong person above the ninth rank is simply an incredible wealth.

The tiger demon secretly made up his mind to hold on to this thigh tightly.

The strange scholar nodded, then looked at the Taoist in green robe and Jiao Jun, and ordered: "You two go and catch the zombie. The tiger demon will protect me here. I need to regulate my breathing."

"This……"

The Taoist in green robe and the Dragon King looked at each other, frowned slightly, and had a look of embarrassment on their faces, but they were afraid of the strength of the strange scholar and did not dare to refuse.

Zombies are creatures that are beyond the six realms of reincarnation, not to mention that the zombie is at the peak of the ninth level.

If they wanted to take down the zombie, they would have to pay a heavy price. They came here for the Nine-tailed Fox and did not want to do such a thankless task.

"Why, aren't you two willing?" A hint of murderous intent flashed in the strange scholar's blue vertical pupils.

"..." Being stared at by the pair of vertical green pupils, the Taoist in green robe and Jiao Jun felt their hair stand on end, and they hurriedly said, "Junior dare not, we will go now."

"Fellow Daoist, Brother Jiao, you are just a zombie. With your strength, you can definitely defeat it easily. What's more, there is a senior sitting here, so why should you be afraid?"

Tiger-kun spoke while standing without any back pain, with a smile on his face.

"Humph!"

The Dragon King snorted coldly and walked away.

The Taoist in green robe followed closely behind.

Somehow, he always felt that there was something wrong with this strange scholar.

Zhang Tianshi of Longhu Mountain is already a disabled man. Apart from the Nine-tailed Sky Fox which has yet to show up, there are no other enemies here. If the three great demons join forces to deal with the zombie, wouldn't their chances of winning be greater? Why should they leave Tiger King alone?

The Taoist in green robe couldn't figure out what the strange scholar's intention was for a moment.

……

On the other side.

Zhang Jing was sitting cross-legged on the ground, his face completely pale.

He was already seriously injured, and he forcibly borrowed magic from the ancestor to attract a trace of heavenly thunder power.

The powerful backlash was far beyond what his mortal body could withstand.

"Master Zhang, you are about to die." Jiang Chen stood aside, his tone flat, without any emotional fluctuations.

"It's okay." Zhang Jingxuan smiled, "As long as you have a clear conscience."

Jiang Chen pondered for a few seconds and asked, "How long can you hold on? I can sense the old ancestor's aura, and he is not far from here."

Zhang Jingxuan shook his head: "The spiritual energy in my body has been exhausted. I am at the point where I am running out of energy. I am powerless to recover. You don't need to trouble me, but before I die, I have a favor to ask. I hope Corpse Ancestor can tell me."

General: "Please speak."

Zhang Jingxuan opened his eyes with difficulty and looked towards the place where the strange scholar was in the distance: "I hope that the ancestor can kill these monsters, especially the scholar dressed in ancient clothes. We must not let him escape and continue to harm the world."

Demons above the ninth rank are a disaster for the world.

"Okay, I will tell you Zhang Tianshi's last words word for word."

Jiang Chen nodded, and after he finished speaking, the corpse energy in his body suddenly surged, and he rushed towards the Taoist priest in green robe and the Dragon King.

Just now, Jiang Chen had an exchange of moves with the strange scholar. Although he was slightly injured, it did not have much impact.

What's more, the ancestor is about to arrive, so what does he have to fear?

"Longhu Mountain claims to be the orthodox Taoism, but I didn't expect that it would collude with a zombie. It's really sad." Jiao Jun sneered and looked at Jiang Chen vigilantly.

This zombie made him feel as if he was facing a formidable enemy, even though they were now outnumbered one by two.

Jiang Chen's eyes were filled with murderous intent: "I have a name, Jiang Chen."

When the Taoist in green robe and Lord Jiao heard the rare ninth-grade peak zombie's self-introduction name, their faces changed.

General?

The legendary corpse ancestor general?

The Taoist in green robe suddenly asked excitedly: "Are you really the Corpse Ancestor General?"

Jiang Chen sensed something from the mood of the old Taoist in green robe, and asked tentatively: "Have you seen other corpse ancestors?"

Hearing this, the Taoist in green robe realized that he had said the wrong thing, and a black mist instantly spread from his body and swept towards the general.

"Kill him, don't let him leave here alive!"

The Lord of the Dragons didn't know why the Taoist in green robe was so emotional, but he still followed suit.
