Chapter 67 Follow me to slay the demon
When Li Hao hurried back to the sky above Cangyu City, he had already seen a large demonic cloud rolling over from the north.
But he did not go to the north immediately. Instead, he went to the city lord's mansion first to understand the situation.
As a result, after soul searching, he saw this scene in the city lord's palace.
"Demon Suppression Department?!"
At the same time, Yue Shuhong and the broad-faced man also noticed the mysterious clothes on Li Hao and were startled.
Although he is the Demon Suppressor, he is the most ordinary Demon Suppressor.
However, judging from Li Hao's appearance, he cannot be just an ordinary demon-suppressing envoy.
"Who are you……"
Yue Shuhong frowned. He didn't remember that there was such a young and powerful man in the Demon Suppression Department in the city.
Li Hao ignored the city guard, but turned to stare at the broad-faced man: "Your name is Tiger Pao? Are you the Tiger Robe Immortal?"
The broad-faced man grinned slightly and showed a ferocious smile: "That's right, it's you, Mr. Hu, and I. The boy actually knows my name. It seems that I am somewhat famous outside Cangyu City."
Li Hao's fingers gripped the handle of the knife with slight force, and the handle slowly deformed.
He took a deep breath and said, "Seven years ago, you ambushed a school captain on the Qizhou National Highway. Do you still remember it?"
"Um?"
The broad-faced man raised his eyebrows, and a chill suddenly appeared in his eyes: "Are you talking about the member of the Yanbei Army? What is your relationship with the Li family?!"
Seeing the other party's admission, Li Hao could no longer restrain the murderous intent in his eyes:
"My surname is Li!"
The tiger-robed immortal's pupils shrank slightly, and his aura suddenly surged. He looked past Li Hao and looked at Yue Shuhong solemnly:
"Brother Yue, it seems that this guy has eavesdropped on our conversation just now. What should we do now?"
"Your collusion with our monster clan has been exposed. Even if you can escape from my hands today, your reputation will still be ruined. According to your Dayu's law, what is the crime of colluding with monsters? You should know, right?"
Its eyes became fierce: "How about you kill this kid? Brother, I will forgive you for being dizzy just now."
Yue Shuhong's eyes also became solemn, staring at Li Hao's back.
But for a moment, he shook his head slightly and sneered: "Hupao, if I continue to listen to you, I will be really dizzy. Either you die today or I die. When we first became friends, we said that we would die in the same year and the same month. !”
"Bah, idiot!"
The tiger-robed immortal spat out foul-smelling saliva and said ferociously: "You human race short-lived ghosts are worthy of living and dying with me!"
As he spoke, he suddenly lunged towards Li Hao, and the tiger soul behind him roared, like a low roar of thunder, which was enough to knock even those in the Step Soul Realm unconscious on the spot.
But the thunderous roar only slightly moved the black hair on Li Hao's forehead.
His eyes were dark and deep, as if he couldn't see the light.
When the tiger-robed immortal's huge body rushed forward quickly, he suddenly raised his hand.
With a bang, his five fingers spread out and pressed down on the tiger-robed immortal's forehead. Then he pressed down hard and hit the solid stone slab under his feet, cracking the stone slab.
The confrontation happened in an instant, like lightning. Before Yue Shuhong could draw his sword to help, he raised half of his foot and froze in the air.
The demon-slaying knife with a cracked blade was lifted upside down in Li Hao's hand and stabbed hard into the side of the tiger-robed immortal's neck.
The tiger-robed immortal was shocked and raised his head in disbelief. How could such great strength and such skill be possible? !
But what he met was a pair of extremely cold eyes.
"I won't let you die so easily."
Li Hao's voice was like a whisper.
While speaking, he also proved his words with actions.
The blade suddenly slashed along the skin of the tiger-robed immortal's neck, tearing off all the tiger skin on his shoulders and back.
Cooking, peel and stew!
This is the most commonly used method of peeling ingredients, and it’s so skillful that it’s almost masterful!
The sudden peeling off of flesh caused the tiger-robed immortal to roar in ferocious pain.
A tiger roar came from its throat, the skin all over its body cracked, and black and yellow hair grew wildly, revealing its prototype.
As its prototype was revealed, the basement seemed crowded.
The huge tiger demon soul behind him roared towards Li Hao, but behind Li Hao, his soul emerged.
His body was similar to that of Li Hao. He just raised his hand and slapped the tiger demon soul through the head with a single palm. The violent palm wind caused the tiger demon soul to retreat. When the head condensed again, the soul was much thinner, and the eyes of the tiger demon soul revealed horror and fear.
Unrivaled!
"How did you kill Uncle Lin back then? Today I will let you pay it back slowly." Li Hao said word by word.
The broken sword in his hand was still sharp under the cover of the soul, revealing the prototype of the tiger-robed immortal. His head was stepped on his forehead by one of Li Hao's feet, and he couldn't lift it up, just like a steel nail hammered into his head!
It twisted its body and struggled wildly, trying to break free from Li Hao's feet.
At this time, Li Hao's eyes flashed with golden light, and he suddenly unleashed the power of the chess record embedded in his physical body, Tiger Pressure!
"Tiger Pressure": The physical strength is slightly improved, which is intimidating!
If embedded in the sword technique, it will increase the power and power of the sword technique.
At this moment, under Li Hao's release, his whole body erupted with the majesty of a thousand-year-old tiger, like the king of the forest, with a cold light of surrender from all the beasts in his eyes.
The tiger-robed immortal who was stepped on by Li Hao could not help but tremble when he felt the terrifying aura emanating from Li Hao's body, and his eyes were dull.
It felt as if it was being pressed by the Tiger King, and it couldn't resist at all.
Its whole body was trembling like chaff, and the severe pain all over its body could not arouse any ferocity in it.
"Spare my life, spare me, I was wrong, I am willing to do anything, you can let me be your servant..." the tiger-robed immortal trembled and wailed.
Li Hao didn't say anything, he just cut quickly with the sharp blade in his hand, and the complete tiger skin was peeled off from the beginning to the end.
The Tiger Robe Immortal was in so much pain that he felt worse than death, but he just lay on the ground shivering and did not dare to run away.
Next to him, Yue Shuhong looked dull. Is this the same tiger-robed immortal who has always been arrogant in front of him for more than 20 years?
Peel the skin, remove the bones, and cut the tendons!
Blood seeped out from the Tiger Robe Immortal's huge body like a river. It was covered in blood and said countless pleading words, but Li Hao remained unmoved.
Such bloody and brutal images deeply impacted Yue Shuhong's brain. He felt chills all over and had a trembling feeling.
After ravaging for nearly half an hour, Li Hao beheaded the tiger-robed immortal, whose flesh and blood were mangled with only one breath left.
He inserted the remaining sword into the tiger-robed immortal's back and chest, holding the tiger's head with eyes full of fear and dullness, and said coldly: "Seven years ago, this tiger demon ambushed a member of my Li family. Did you participate?"
Yue Shuhong's body trembled. Although the young man did not look back, he could feel the chill covering his whole body.
By now, he knew that he would inevitably die, and said with a sad smile: "Although I am guilty of death, I can't frame Zhongliang."
Li Hao said coldly: "Did you collude with the monsters and secretly send humans to be used as food rations for the monsters?"
Yue Shuhong's face twitched slightly and he nodded: "Yes, it's all my doing. Giving away to these monsters and killing my own kind are all my doings."
He said self-deprecatingly: "At first I just sent them some death row prisoners to use as waste. Later, the number of death row prisoners was not enough, and they pressed hard, so I could only send them some bandits and even civilians."
"Why?"
Li Hao turned his head and stared at him.
"Why do you associate with monsters?"
Yue Shuhong smiled bitterly, with a hint of sadness in his eyes: "When I was transferred here, I also wanted to clear out the surrounding monsters and clarify the world, but later I realized that manpower will eventually be exhausted, and there is no way to kill all of these monsters. They reproduce too fast, and their numbers are too high. Again, the Yu Dynasty is no longer the invincible dynasty it was hundreds of years ago. In recent years, it has gradually declined..."
"I applied everywhere for foreign aid and troops, but nothing came to fruition."
"Who can save Cangyu City?"
He laughed miserably and looked at Li Hao: "If we don't send people to sacrifice for them, more people will die. I, Yue, have very little ability. I can only save the people of this city by bearing the sins of the whole city!"
"I know that I will inevitably die today, so I don't expect anything extra. I hope... I can still be buried in Cangyu City. That would be enough. I hope... the young master will be successful!"
Having said this, he actually lifted up his official robe and knelt down on his legs.
At the same time, he also took off the city guard's black gauze hat on his head and put it aside.
Her messy hair was brushed against her face, and her temples were stained with tears.
Li Hao stood under the warm light of the oil lamp, looking down at the middle-aged man's face that was not illuminated by the light, and could see the hot tears flowing on his face.
He was silent for a moment, withdrew his gaze, and said indifferently: "You do deserve to die, but your crime will be determined by the court and not by me."
"Now that the great demon is under pressure, since you still have the strength, then... follow me to slay the demon!"
After that, he took the huge tiger head, put it on the table next to him, turned around and left.
