Demon"s infiltration part 3/*unedited*/
The Nian clan is one of the most powerful clans in Crow town. With thousands of cultivators under their command, and with the backing of the Heavenly Crow sect, they are a force to be reckoned with. Their control of the natural resources and the cultivation materials within their domain is absolute. Within the town of Crow, the battle for supremacy between clans is ongoing within the shadows of its walls. But of course, on the surface, the normal citizens could not feel it.
But right now, the tip of the weighing scale is currently going in favor of the Nian clan. And within the town, something is happening.
The leaders of the clans are starting to take a hit and are being attacked randomly.
Inside the state of one of the leading clan in Crow town, the Fa clan, a middle-aged man is currently walking in a fast manner towards the inner courtyard of the main mansion.
When he reached a closed door, he immediately knocked hurriedly. Then he carefully opened the door and entered when he heard the confirmation coming from inside.
"Master, the Nian clan wars.h.i.+ps have left to the Dark Forest… As you commanded we have sent some of our spies to follow… although we are unable to follow, yet from afar, our spies have reported that there was trouble… They said that one of the wars.h.i.+ps was actually... destroyed!" The man reported.
When the old man with gray long hair sitting behind a long st.u.r.dy wooden table heard the report, he crests his brows as he muses on what was said. Then after a long time, he sighs heavily.
"Send this report to the other clans." He said in a low stern voice.
When the middle-aged man heard this, he quickly bowed in respect and left the room.
Left alone the old man slowly stands up from his seat. With heavy footsteps, he paces back and forth while both of his hands behind his back.
"The Nian clan is making their move now. If they became successful then the rest of the clans might fall in their hands. We don"t have any choice anymore but to cooperate." He muttered while walking.
Within the walls of the town of Crow, a looming danger is slowly choking the atmosphere making the people tremble in fear. The streets are now empty while on the main roads only those with enough strength or courage can be seen walking.
Even the town"s guards wouldn"t even dare come out from their post in fear of being involved in the incoming fight between the clans.
The town seems tranquil and peaceful, but once in a while in the dark corners of the streets. People would just disappear and a strong stench of the smell of blood would spread through the air.
As the dark forces begin to move in the background, many clans also prepare for the worst. In a secret area, the head of the clans inside the town of Crow are conveying a secret meeting.
"What"s our next move? We are all in this now. If we don"t stop the Nian clan, then we might be wiped out by them."
"I heard that there are hidden forces amongst them… some weird creatures with… with horns."
"I also heard about this, they are also strong. Plus their magic is weird, they would enchant some words and then the elements would obey their commands."
"However, they don"t have Qi field which makes them easier to kill."
"No, they"re not easy to kill. Their skin is very st.u.r.dy and hard that normal weapons are unable to penetrate them… Plus their regenerative ability is very fast."
"I think those things are called demons right? The empire has already warned us about this."
"If this is true then, what should we do?"
"We have already reported this to the kingdom of Wu. I just don"t know when the kingdom is going to make their move."
The elders discussed as they tried to identify their enemy and how to face them. As their discussion continues deeper into the night, several shadows can be seen lurking within the vicinity of the area.
Outside of the secret meeting area, two cultivators are currently standing side by side.
"What time do you think the elders would be done? It"s already getting late."
"I think we should just attack the Nian clan estate and get this over with. We"re just wasting time here."
"Hey, watch your tongue, the elders and clan leaders won"t tolerate insubordination."
While the two are talking they suddenly noticed a shadow moving from within the bushes.
"Huh… what"s that?"
The two suddenly became vigilant as they carefully approached the bushes.
Hukkk!!!
Arrgghhh!!!
Five razor-sharp claws suddenly appear from both of the cultivator"s backs. As blood slowly bloomed from within their robes, a grim face slowly appears from the darkness. With a single horn on her forehead, the beautiful yet sinister face of a woman peeks through the dim light.
"This new strength of mine is so amazing. Even these gold core realm cultivators are not my match. Keke…" the woman muttered as she carefully retracted her clawed hands along with two beating hearts.
When the woman smelled the blood, her eyes glowed in ecstasy. The corner of her mouth suddenly became wet with saliva as she slowly pulls the two hearts closer to her mouth.
She looks like a hungry ghost as she devoured the two still warm beating hearts with gusto.
This scene can be seen everywhere in this secret place where the leaders of the clan are conveying their meetings.
…
Meanwhile, s.h.i.+n Jiao has guided the wars.h.i.+p towards the outskirts of the Dark Forest where two people are waiting while hiding in thick thickets in the woods.
These two are the Lee brothers and sister. They were instructed by s.h.i.+n Jiao to go here after the wars.h.i.+ps left the town. They have been hiding in this place for 2 days now and didn"t know when s.h.i.+n Jiao would arrive.
"Brother, would Senior Jiao is coming, right? It has already been two days." Majin Lee said with a hint of complaint in her tone.
"Just wait for him, little sister. Senior Jiao already promised us to save sister we should be patient and wait…"
Then suddenly they noticed from the sky a large wars.h.i.+p slowly descended towards their position.
"Big brother! Are… are we… are we in trouble now?... I"m… I"m scared, big brother…" Majin Lee said with a trembling voice as she hid behind Jian Lee.
The two already realized that the wars.h.i.+p is one of the wars.h.i.+ps of the Nian clan. If there are discovered, then the two would be in trouble.
As they hug each other while not revealing themselves, a shadow jumps out from the wars.h.i.+p"s deck.
Thud!
The person landed on the ground and then walks towards them.
Because of the fog, they can"t see the person clearly, but they knew that it was a guy from his appearance.
But the two glowing lights coming from his head made them s.h.i.+ver in fear.
Looking like a wraith or a ghost, s.h.i.+n Jiao approached them with a smile in his face as he saw the fear in their faces.
"Haha… you two have suffered. I"m a bit late, sorry about that. Let"s go now." s.h.i.+n Jiao said as he held both of them and flew up towards the wars.h.i.+p"s deck.
When the two reached the wide and s.p.a.cious deck of the wars.h.i.+p, they were astonished beyond words. This is because the deck of the wars.h.i.+p is flat and plain. After the explosion, s.h.i.+n Jiao remodeled the wars.h.i.+p"s body and turned it into something like an aircraft carrier from the earth.
The size of the wars.h.i.+p"s deck alone is enough to accommodate more than 20 of his small-sized regular airs.h.i.+p. Hence with this s.p.a.ce, he would try and use the wars.h.i.+p as a mobile base for the meantime.
For a whole day, s.h.i.+n Jiao modified the engine the wars.h.i.+p uses and created a centralized turbine that would drive the power to run the whole s.h.i.+p.
After the whole day of work, he was able to modify the wars.h.i.+p to run like a real s.p.a.ce s.h.i.+p. Although it doesn"t have any weapons installed yet with his presence, he can act as the gun for the s.h.i.+p.
After the two entered a small opening, they were greeted by a beautiful and slim young woman, Ziyun Lee their sister.
"Sister Ziyun! You… you"re not hurt… I"m so happy that you are safe!… Huhuhu…" Majin Lee asked while sobbing.
She hugged her sister Ziyun Lee tightly as she just cried on her chest.
Ziyun Lee showed a helpless expression as her sister continues bawling.
When they arrive in a large hall, everyone has already gathered. The two newcomers look at the women in the hall and greeted them all courteously.
Since the two are Ziyun Lee and s.h.i.+n Jiao"s acquaintance, they welcomed them in the group.
Then s.h.i.+n Jiao walks towards the only large table in the room and touched a panel.
After he touched it, a 3D map suddenly appears floating on the table.
"Alright, all of you listen up! Since we are already at the boundary of the Dark Forest those who wanted to return to the town please say it now and we will drop you here. This s.h.i.+p is going to directly go to Great Wu city. I won"t say anything I think you already know what"s happening in the town. No matter what you do we can"t stop this on our own." s.h.i.+n Jiao said giving them their options and warnings.
No one dared talk because they have already gotten the information they needed from the two demons. What they have discovered is something very disturbing and terrifying.
The two female demons reveal after some torture that the Nian clan has already fallen in the hands of the demons. The elders and many of its inner disciples are either eaten by the demons or let themselves surrender and be transformed into demons. However, the whereabouts of the Nian clan patriarch and the other higher-ups of the clan are unknown.
With this information, s.h.i.+n Jiao decided to let the Great Wu kingdom deal with the threat. But of course, before leaving he would give the Nian clan a parting gift aside from taking and destroying their wars.h.i.+ps.
The women decided to stay in the wars.h.i.+p and continue the journey towards the Great Wu city.
As the wars.h.i.+p crossed the sky and neared the town, s.h.i.+n Jiao stood in front of the deck and took out his anti-matter rifle.
"Only two uses left and it would already break… Sigh… I need to find a more st.u.r.dy material."
He carefully set his sight up and directly pointed the barrel of the rifle towards a particular direction.
