Chapter 1199 618: Who Says We're the Same as You Evil Demons?
Regarding the situation in Qingzhou, Duan Yun and the other Jade Pearl Heroes have pretty much figured it out.
The group that stirred up trouble in Qingzhou, the so-called Glazed Heavenly Girls, were clearly the loose ends left by Duan Yun and the Murong brothers after vanquishing the Ghost Mother's lineage.
Back then, the Inconstant Woman claimed she wanted to send coordinates to the Elder Mother, saying that since they destroyed the Ghost Mother and her love, she would destroy the mortal world in response.
Now it appears she was quite serious.
To maintain peace in the Martial World, to reclaim their own loose ends, and for the sake of righteous heroic spirit tomorrow, they decided to take proactive action.
Though Young Hero Duan favored the notion of "hunt down to the ends of the earth," he wasn't a reckless brute; his killings were those of wisdom.
So the clever Young Hero Murong had already begun pondering, "Since right now the White Sock Divine Sect and these Heavenly Girls are fiercely at war, should we temporarily ally with the White Sock Divine Sect? After all, these Heavenly Girls are outsiders, and the enemy of my enemy is my friend."
The Murong brothers might not comprehend the concept of aliens, but they understood that these outsiders were from an alien race, the ones most deserving of extermination.
Duan Yun raised an eyebrow and said, "An alliance? When have I, this young hero, ever needed to ally with an enemy?"
The Murong brothers pondered, "Logically, both are enemies. We should weigh the situation. You mean to say...."
Duan Yun said with a serious face, "Of course, kill them all."
"Just kill this Fire Lady Elder and the White Sock Divine Sect too; it's just a trivial task."
Upon hearing Duan Yun's response, the Murong brothers displayed a hint of shock on their faces.
Looking at him, Duan Yun remarked, "What's with that expression? We've come a long way over mountains and treacherous paths, and no one even reimburses us for travel expenses. How else do we make it worthwhile but by killing more?"
The Murong brothers displayed a look of shock again, while the heroines' eyes shone with admiration.
What is the charisma of the leader of the Jade Pearl Heroes?
This is it!
This is the difference between the Green Saber Young Hero and Young Hero Duan.
It sounds like their ranks are only a tiny bit apart, with one being the leader and the other claiming second place, sometimes even considered equal. But the gap is like a chasm.
At that moment, Duan Yun had already begun distributing tasks.
"These Glazed Heavenly Girls have considerable strength, and there are a lot of them. The Sect Hierarch of the White Sock Divine Sect has also come out of seclusion, leaving one or two Heavenly Kings. We have many to deal with, so time is tight and the task is heavy. I think, except for Lei Ying and Wanwan guarding the Mountain Villa, all other young heroes and heroines should join me in the full-scale attack."
Young Hero Duan, when setting out to do something, does it fiercely and thoroughly.
In his eyes, there's no such thing as the enemy's enemy being a friend. There's only right and evil, hero and villain. Since they're all evil, then kill them all!
He didn't speak with a varied and impassioned tone, yet nearly everyone was inspired by him, their blood boiling with excitement.
As the Murong brothers were still considering making a "defense" for their proposal, almost everyone had packed their bags and quickly set off, including his beloved Ning Qing.
Seeing the dust kicked up by the departing convoy, the Murong brothers couldn't help but chase as they called out, "Hey, I haven't gotten on the car yet."
"I haven't gotten on the car yet."
...
Qingzhou, very quiet yet noisy.
Quiet because there were no human voices. Even cities that were once extremely lively now had everyone silent as cicadas in winter, with no traces on the streets, resembling a ghost town.
Yet such a city was somehow bustling.
Bustling because of fire.
The ghostly blue flames turned human corpses to ashes, burning even sturdy bones to powder. The most outrageous thing was, when this fire landed on the ground, on stones, it kept burning, emitting continuous crackling sounds.
The bustling sound was due to this burning sound of the fire.
It's said that once the Heavenly Girls' fire starts burning, unless a Heavenly Girl herself retracts it, it will never extinguish, consuming everything.
These ghostly blue flames burned slowly, like a form of torture, tormenting everyone's hearts here.
Since the Heavenly Girls had decreed that no one may leave the city, even though this fire wasn't spreading quickly, it would eventually reach them.
Now they were like pieces of meat about to be placed on a fire, filled with despair.
At this moment, a sound was heard—a black boot stomped on this ghostly blue flame, stamping it down with force, twisting it around.
Afterward, a strange scene unfolded—the fire that was said to be eternal was gone.
Duan Yun lifted the sole-burned boot, revealing a clean sole, and remarked, "This fire is indeed potent."
The fire hadn't disappeared; it was absorbed through the sole into his body.
Then, it was refined, surrounded and refined by the Heroic Fire Lotus.
This abnormal fire was dominant enough to ignite stone and mud; how could my young hero's Heroic Fire Lotus not be dominant too?
On the road, Duan Yun shouted, "Extraordinary Wisdom, I command you to refine it!" Then this dominant abnormal fire was gradually refined.
In this refining process, Duan Yun even gained deeper insight into these "Glazed Heavenly Girls."
"This fire is like this, the taste of the Heavenly Girls must be something," Duan Yun said, savoring the thought.
Beside him, the Murong brothers, watching the scene, couldn't help feeling they were the villains.
The more they walked into the city, the more Duan Yun shook his head.
This seemingly vast city is called "Tianle City," the core city under White Sock Divine Sect's rule.
In Tianle City, every autumn when chrysanthemums bloom, a White Socks festival is held.
When the White Socks festival is underway, it can be said, "The city is filled with white woven socks," with many even covering their heads and hands, presenting a grand spectacle.
One must understand, in Tianle City, regular folks normally cannot wear white socks. Those who can are insiders within the Divine Sect, individuals one rank higher than others. Yet, the entire city is devoutly loyal to the White Sock Divine Sect, with every household having the habit of collecting white socks.
