Chapter 71: Sitting Back and Catching the Fish
ickly, quickly go and inform the lord!""You—you are Lord Shen!"The sudden turn of events left the few yamen guards in a state of shock. Some immediately rushed to report to Zhao Fang, while others, af...Blood cocoon!
Yin Xiu's gaze was burning hot as he looked at the blood cocoon, but he kept it well contained.
When it arrived, the blood cocoon trembled, and a cold and eerie voice came from within.
"I sensed a familiar scent on you. Who are you!"
"I am Yin Xiu, of the Demon Clan. My clan has heard that one of our kind has been born here, so I have been sent to invite you. We hope you will join the Demon Clan."
Yin Xiu's expression was calm and composed as he spoke truthfully.
"Demon Clan!"
The voice within the blood cocoon murmured to itself.
It felt like I was both tempted and hesitant.
Then.
That voice sounded again: "I sense a familiar aura from you. It seems we are indeed of the same lineage."
The blood cocoon's voice grew colder and lower.
And then.
And then that voice asked again.
"Are there many powerful individuals among the demon race"
"A lot."
A look of arrogance appeared on Yin Xiu's face.
Let me know if you have other content you'd like translated!
>Among the demonic race, there are many who are stronger than you and me. If you join our demonic clan, you will be protected by our demonic clan. Even humans won't be able to harm you.
The might of the demonic race is something that these newly hatched demons simply cannot comprehend.
Upon hearing this.
The blood cocoon fell silent.
A moment later, a voice came from inside.
"Like our abilities, could we be considered strong among the demon clan"
Those who can enter the ranks of demons and monsters are all considered strong.
Yin Xiu gave a positive response.
He would never consider himself a weakling.
“I see.” Xuejuan's voice trembled slightly: “I feel like I'm about to break through, but I'm missing something. Can you help me”
Help me out!
Yin Xiu fell into deep thought.
Then, he calmly replied: "There are quite a few Human cultivators inside Luoyang City now, and they are all powerful. If you could devour them, you would definitely be able to break through."
"I know those two people."
The blood cocoon's voice fell silent once more.
“But they haven't come over here yet, I haven't broken through successfully, and it's also inconvenient to make a move, so it's a bit troublesome.”
He paused for a moment.
The sound of blood cocoons echoed again.

The person beside you, can I eat them If I can eat them, I'll be able to break through.
Upon hearing this.

Su Wan'er's whole body was cold.
She felt a great threat from the blood cocoon.
That feeling gave him an urge to flee immediately, but he forced it down because of his own identity and Yin Xiu beside him.
...until the last moment.
Here is the translated text, keeping the HTML tags as they are:

Su Wan'er didn't dare to escape.
If matters were to come to light, even the Eternal Alliance Leader wouldn't be able to escape the consequences.
Yin Xiu turned his head and glanced at Su Wan'er. He shook his head. "This person is one of us, I'm afraid she can't satisfy you."
"That's how it is then."
The sound of the blood cocoon subsided.
The next moment.
The blood pool trembled, countless tentacles shot up from beneath the blood pool, and the voice within the cocoon suddenly became sharp and piercing.
"If she can't eat, then you'll be the same!"
A hand shot through the air, and a cloying stench of blood filled the air.
Yin Xiu's face changed drastically: "You're crazy!"
He didn't expect it.
The blood cocoon actually dared to attack me.
Does the other party not know that he is a member of the demon clan
Moreover, with the strength of the demon clan, it wouldn't be a major issue to wipe them out.
In the middle of their conversation.
>
Yin Xiu's figure suddenly retreated, a surging wave of Yin energy exploding outwards, shattering the tentacles that flew towards him.
On the other side.
Su Wan'er, unprepared, was wrapped by a blood-colored tentacle around one arm.
Be decisive.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
She severed her own arm with sinister power, then retreated.
Boom!
With the Blood Cocoon's attack, the entire blood pool surged into chaos.
That's not all.
The countless piles of corpses also trembled madly, one by one skeletons rolled down from above, and then in the astonished eyes of the two, the skeletons were completely resurrected, swarming towards them densely.
"Damn it!"
When anger reaches its peak, it will turn into stillness.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like translated!
I tried to befriend the other party, but not only did they fail to appreciate my kindness, but they also intended to devour me.
Anger!
Unprecedented rage!
Even though he had his arm severed by Shen Changqing earlier, Yin Xiu had never been this furious.
This feeling.
It was as if he had been betrayed by his own kind.
Boom!!
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like translated!
A sinister aura erupted, and all the corpses that came near were reduced to dust before this force.
But it didn't work.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
Because there are too many mummies.
Even if it was shattered into many pieces, at a glance, it still seemed endless.
That's not all.

Blood cocoon also makes occasional moves, secretly attacking them.
"Master, what are we going to do now!" Su Wan'er's pretty face was as pale as paper. With one arm severed, although the wound had stopped bleeding, the loss of power was extremely difficult to make up for.
And coupled with those endless corpses, it's truly disheartening.
Upon hearing this.
Yin Xiuxian's face was pale and cold. "Let's kill him first and then talk about it. He will regret this."
"Dog bites dog"
On the top of a tall building, Shen Changqing and Xun Qu looked at this scene, both were astonished, seeming somewhat unexpected.
They originally planned to go straight to the lair of the demon and block its breakthrough.
> Results.
The lair of the demon horde hadn't been found yet, but Yin Xiu and Blood Cocoon's battle fluctuations drew their attention.
When they climbed to the top of a tall building to view it, they were astonished to discover that the two demonic creatures seemed to have turned on each other.
Xun Qu's face was strange: "I was worried they would team up at first, but now it seems my worry was a bit excessive."
Let's join hands.
Jokes.
Such a scene, like something that wants to team up
Shen Changqing stared intently at the scene: "The people of Luoyang City aren't enough to stop it. Doing this is like trying to swallow the monster whole."
Let me know if you have other text you'd like me to translate!
That's all.
His gaze turned once more to those resurrected corpses.
From their attire, it's not difficult to discern the identities of the corpses.
Those — are all the people of Luoyang City.
That fiend slaughtered all the commoners, and did not stop there. It transformed their corpses into puppets, hundreds of thousands of them! Even if each puppet was only equivalent to a body-tempering realm martial artist, it would still be terrifyingly formidable.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
200,000 Body Tempering Realm.
What can be achieved on the battlefield is unimaginable.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like translated!
In normal times, a martial artist at the Twenty Thousand Forging Body realm is unable to stop a demonic beast. Although a demonic beast may not be able to handle that many people, if it wants to leave, it can do so at any time.
That's all.
Right now, Yin Xiu already had injuries on his body. With the blood cocoon secretly attacking, he didn't stand a chance of escaping at all.
Every time I run away.
All of them were just intercepted by the blood cocoon.
Those corpses rushed forward the instant they were stopped by Yin Xiu.
Bite with your teeth.
Grab with your hand.
Let me know if you'd like to translate anything else!
The demon's scales themselves are the best defensive weapons, no matter how hard the dry corpses bite and scratch, they can't break through the defense.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
However.
Yin Xiu was momentarily unable to escape as he was intercepted by numerous corpses.
"Elder Shen probably hasn't seen a sight like this before!" a voice, Xun Qu's, came from beside him.
Shen Changqing turned his head and met the other person's gaze.
Before he could answer.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like translated!
Xun Qu said to himself, "This is the terrible thing about demons. If powerful demons appear, if things go wrong, the entire city's population will be wiped out. That's why the Qin Dynasty established Demon Suppression Departments in various places."
The purpose is that wherever there are demons and disasters, the Demon Suppression Division can be the first to lend a hand.
"While this doesn't completely eliminate the possibility of demonic rampages, it has significantly reduced their occurrence compared to before."
Demons ravage the city!
Shen Changqing's heart sank slightly.
Xun Qu said: "Whenever demons and monsters ravage a city, it results in the deaths of tens of thousands of civilians. Moreover, those who die at the hands of powerful demons will be transformed into their puppets, causing immense shock."
If it's a single demon, the Demon Suppression Bureau should be able to handle it.
But if it were like now, adding hundreds of thousands of puppet troops, then it would be very difficult to deal with.
A person who is capable of single-handedly defeating an army is, after all, a rare individual.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
Even a master-level expert, although capable of single-handedly defeating an army, cannot truly run rampant.
The size of the army can be large or small.
The peak of a master is merely the threshold for entering the realm of an army of one. To be unfazed by the entrapment of two hundred thousand puppets, one needs more than just the pinnacle of a master's cultivation or the power of a garrison commander.
Not to mention.
In the puppet, there is also hidden a powerful demon.
Xun Qu's words left Shen Changqing silent.
He has been in the Zhen Mo Si for quite a while, over two or three years. In that time, he has seen many scenes of demons and monsters causing havoc.
However.
Those scenes, compared to the present scene, were worlds apart.
In the past, at most, just the villagers of one village would be wiped out.
Now.
But it was the city's people who were destroyed.
A sea of corpses stretching as far as the eye could see, and a vast pool of blood. Even from afar, the stench of death was palpable.
For a long time.
Shen Changqing said: "That demon's strength is good, but compared to the demon in Luoyang City, it's still a bit worse. Not to mention that it has injuries. If we let that demon swallow it, it will definitely succeed in breaking through."
>
"Take your time, no need to rush into anything."
Xun Qu's face had a faint smile, as if he had already won.
"Demons aren't as simple as you think. Any demon has its own way of protecting itself. Although this demon is surrounded, it hasn't revealed its true trump card yet. Wait and see."
"Wait until those demons reveal their cards and weaken each other, then we'll make our move."
"Xun Zhenshou wants to sit back and reap the benefits."
“If we can conserve some energy, then conserve some energy. That demon over there is eager to break through, otherwise it wouldn't make a move. We should just wait for the right opportunity now, best if we can achieve a decisive victory in one strike.”
This is a placeholder.
Though complete annihilation is not the goal, it should be severely wounded.
Otherwise, with that demon's power, even if you and I joined forces, there wouldn't be a one hundred percent guarantee that we could suppress it.
Demons are not inanimate objects.
A powerful demon was determined to leave, and anyone who tried to stop it wouldn't have an easy time.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!le yours only has two. Numerically, you have no advantage at all.“Why waste time talking to them, just kill them directly! I haven't tasted a master's flavor in ages!”A cruel smile appeared on the wit...
