Exorcism

In front of "outsiders", Shen Xiuming had the opportunity to see how drastic changes had taken place in his former partner, and Mr. Ma also intended to keep him to fully show his other side.

Sea-Treading General Tuo Fu is nominally the commander of the Demon Army of the Wave-Treading Kingdom, holding the power of life and death, and the King of the Wave-Treading Kingdom has to bow before him, but all of this is of no use here.

General Tahai was surprised to see another human being in the room. His neck was a little stiff when he nodded, and he had a bad feeling in his heart.

"Mr. Ma, the physical ceremony is ready and will proceed as usual at noon tomorrow."

"Yes." Mr. Ma sat motionless, staring at the teacup on the table.

General Treading the Sea was a little embarrassed, so he had to continue: "There are a total of 81,637 human beings, all of whom are old, weak, sick and disabled, and it is not a pity to die. The rest are monsters, coming from the sea and the land of monsters. They are too arrogant and cause trouble everywhere. It just teaches them a lesson, and they are stupid and rush to be sacrifices. "

"Yes." Mr. Ma raised his gaze, not looking at General Tahai, but at Shen Xiuming opposite, as if asking for his opinion.

Shen Xiuming didn't understand what the demon general was saying at all.

General Treading the Sea became increasingly uneasy and forced himself to continue, "This is my nephew Tuo Yong, who came from the capital city of Shishen..."

"Why choose the old, weak, sick and disabled?" Mr. Ma finally spoke, his tone was calm, as if he was just asking a very simple detail question, and his eyes finally turned to the visitor.

Tuo Yong was about to take a step forward to pay his respects to Mr. Hanma, but was stopped by a gesture from his uncle.

"Because they waste food, they can't work, and they can't go to the battlefield. It's useless to keep it, and it can be used for sacrifices." General Tahai replied calmly.

"Where are the young and strong humans?"

"Some of them work as farmers and craftsmen, continuing to build ships and support the entire army. Some of them are incorporated into the army. Qishan has gathered a lot of troops, just for these human soldiers to take the lead.

"The general is quite thoughtful."

General Talang heard the sarcasm in the words and his face turned red. However, he was not an ordinary magician. He had to retain some dignity no matter what. He raised his head slightly and said coldly: "The sea monster has always been unruly. Attack the chess player." There will be a series of battles behind the mountain. The Shengfu Dynasty has gathered a large number of warships in Fuhai City, and it will be a big battle. I am planning for a ten-year battle. "

"Ten years?" Mr. Ma sneered and said to Shen Xiuming: "Ten years ago you were planting flowers and I was running for a living. Ten years ago we all thought that the Taoism was immortal and that the demons were just a myth. Even if it was true, His return to the world will be a matter of hundreds or thousands of years."

Shen Xiuming probably understood what they were talking about. He leaned forward and said sincerely: "You are a human being. You have not changed ten years ago or ten years later."

"Haha." Mr. Ma laughed and turned to General Treading Sea: "In less than ten years, can you guarantee that the humans of Treading Country will still be your slaves and soldiers within one year?"

General Treading the Sea was stunned, "According to the current situation..."

"How much gold and silver jewels will King Yitalang give you?" Mr. Ma said lightly, picking up the tea cup and taking a sip.

General Treading the Sea's face suddenly turned red, and then he became angry and said loudly: "Mr. Ma, I am the commander of the South Road Demon Army personally appointed by King Sheshen. I have been ordered to cooperate with you in order to defeat humans together. I will follow all your instructions. You're right. If you have anything to say, just say it, why bother with insinuations? The King of Waves is handing over some gold and silver jewelry, which are all tributes, and I will send them back to the Kingdom of Sacrifice."

Mr. Ma listened quietly, stood up, walked to the demon general, and looked directly into his eyes, "War is not a transaction. You are wrong, and so is the King of Sacrifice. This war does not decide who can win between the demons and humans." Survival is to clear the battlefield for the future Dao Demon war. All living beings are insignificant. You and the entire Tuo family have a chance to surpass all living beings, but you are like a greedy pig now, and you are following me for a small gain. The King of Waves makes a deal. Smart creatures strive to get closer to the demons at the heights, but the foolish ones are willing to wallow in the mud. The so-called gold, silver and jewels are nothing more than shining dust."

Mr. Ma's voice did not rise, nor did it become harsh, but it produced extremely heavy pressure. General Tahai soon lost his battle in the face of each other, his whole body was trembling slightly, and he was gradually sweating like rain.

Tuo Yong, who was behind General Treading the Sea, felt strong pressure. He knew that this was probably the effect of a spell, but he was still horrified in his heart. He wished he could shrink a hundred times or turn around and escape from the room.

General Treading the Sea knelt down, and Tuo Yong hesitated for a moment before kneeling down too.

"I-I'm going to change a batch of sacrifices..." General Treading the Sea felt extremely regretful. He shouldn't have taken any chances and turned against the half-demon.

"Change? The whole world is a sacrifice in the war between Dao and Demon." Mr. Ma's body became taller and taller. "The city will be closed after dark. I will hold a city-wide ceremony at noon tomorrow. Except for the soldiers on the warship, all humans and All the demon clan will sacrifice. I will give you the privilege of choosing one hundred lucky people to leave the city before dawn tomorrow."

"Yes...Thank you, Mr. Ma, I will definitely..." General Tahai completely collapsed.

Mr. Ma stretched out his right hand, and the demon general stood up involuntarily, with his legs bent and his head an inch or two away from the half-demon's hand, like a dog standing in front of its master.

"Ming, understand."

Mr. Ma retracted his palm, and General Treading the Sea hurriedly exited the room, almost bumping into his nephew who was kneeling behind him, but he left first regardless.

Tuo Yong didn't even dare to get up. He knelt on the ground and moved backwards. Before he reached the door, he felt a force blocking the back and he couldn't get out.

Tuo Yong raised his head and looked at Mr. Ma in horror. He didn't say a word after entering the room and didn't understand why he was left behind.

"Takuyong?"

"Yes, it's me."

"You are not among the descendants of the Tuo clan who were gifted with demon seeds."

"I am stupid in nature and not good at practice, so..." Tuo Yong regretted coming to see the half-demon. He saw his uncle's embarrassment with his own eyes, and he was also in danger.

"You're not good at practice, but you can block my demonic mourning technique. I'm afraid you are the strongest Tuo clan." Mr. Ma likes to launch a sudden attack on the enemy, and seeing the opponent collapse always makes him feel happy.

Sometimes he even deliberately cultivates the opponent's arrogance, such as making the sea-walking general think that he can be on an equal footing with the half-demon, telling him to prepare a hundred thousand physical sacrifices, but at the last moment he changed his mind and put all the blame on the demon general. That's interesting, very interesting.

This practice is also a test for the weak, but no one can really pass it.

Tuo Yong is just an inconspicuous little demon, so there is no need to bother cultivating him. Mr. Ma hopes that he will see results.

Tuo Yong was indeed frightened and confused. He didn't know what the magic of magic was, let alone how he blocked it. "I-I'm not strong at all, I-I'm just a pig."

"Hey, hand it over."

"Ah?" Tuo Yong was confused, but he obediently reached into his arms and took out the black jade statue.

"Put it down." Mr. Ma ordered, his voice showing a bit of severity for the first time.

Tuo Yong put down the statue and finally understood that he was in extreme danger and faced an important choice. He tried not to think about anything to avoid leaking the secret, but his heart was beating violently.

Mr. Ma looked at the statue, wondering how to deal with this Tuo clan half-demon that suddenly appeared.

"You are not Mu Feihuang." Shen Xiuming said word by word.

Mr. Ma turned to look at his childhood friend and waved his hand. Tuo Yong was pushed out of the room and rolled down the stairs, avoiding a difficult choice. The black jade statue was left on the ground at the door.

The two royal family members were so frightened that they lost their minds, but Shen Xiuming was not affected. Instead, he became more and more angry, "You look like Mu Feihuang and have his memories, but you are not him. Your body has been taken over by a demon species." , became another person, Mu Feihuang died two years ago, and died on the battlefield while fighting the demon clan. "

"So, are you Shen Xiuming from Yelin Town? But why didn't you become a farmer? Why can you associate with powerful people? Why do you dare to be so presumptuous in front of the half-demon? This is not the Daliang I remember. To put it bluntly, no one It’s me, everyone is a mixture and slave of identity, status, and strength. If you think I have changed too much, that’s because the strength I possess has also undergone earth-shaking changes.”

Seeing that Shen Xiuming was speechless, Mr. Ma became so excited that he even temporarily forgot about the statue at the door, "For hundreds of thousands of years, demon species have been escaping, invading humans and monsters, and then being eliminated by the Taoist tradition, and those invaded are Killed or imprisoned. In fact, the orthodoxy was wrong. The purpose of the demon species was not to invade at all, but to spread. Before being eliminated, the demon species had quietly changed the physiques of some humans and monsters. On the surface, they were different from the demon species. It doesn’t matter at all, but their descendants and descendants are becoming more and more accustomed to the demon species, but they just don’t have the chance to show it.”

"Now the opportunity has finally come. Shen Xiuming, you have to know that the ancestors of Yelin Zhenmu and Shen were selected by the demon species tens of thousands of years ago. For hundreds of generations, the demonic bodies of our two families have grown stronger and stronger. It became more and more obvious that the demon had to come out and kill the whole town in advance to avoid arousing the suspicion of the Taoism. But Fangfang’s soul disrupted the plan. The ten children survived and actually produced Tao roots, but we can’t condense it. Dan, that has nothing to do with understanding, it’s all determined by the demonic body.”

"Impossible." Shen Xiuming didn't believe Mu Feihuang's words, "Shen Hao and Mu Xingqiu have condensed their elixirs."

"Not everyone can inherit the demonic body, and Shen Hao does not. Mu Xingqiu is a chosen child, not a descendant of the Mu family at all. Fangfang and Guan Jinwu are also from other surnames, so they can condense elixirs. Looking back, maybe the bald man You have a demon body, so you can survive in that disgusting form. Your brother Erliang is the person with the strongest demon body. Unfortunately... you also have a demon body, not as good as Erliang, and not as good as me, but you are by no means ordinary. . Get ready to be your true self.”

Mr. Ma stretched out his arm and was about to cast a spell.

Shen Xiuming also stretched out his arms, as if making a gesture of resistance, "This is the real me."
