Gods: Starting with the Goblins

He just didn't expect that one day, this punishment would fall on him.

Every time the whip falls, the body is suffering from the bone-gnawing pain of thousands of ants.

He was a thin demon himself and could not withstand the whip. After being struck a few times, his body was already in a dying state.

Obsidian just looked at Shi Shiran, his eyes cold and ruthless.

After a while, looking at Li Ruo whose breath was gradually weakening, he gave the order.

"Pour a basin of water and wake him up for me. I still have many things to ask him, but don't kill him!"

"yes."

One of the men responded and poured a basin of water over without hesitation.

After being splashed with cold water, Li Ruoshu shivered for a while and came back to his senses. However, after experiencing such a harsh whip, his condition looked extremely bad, his lips turned white, and his face looked sick.

"Li Ruo, just answer the questions we asked you honestly. Now we are just giving you an appetizer. If you don't obey, you don't want to know what will happen!"

Obsidian opened the corner of his mouth and gave an almost cruel smile.

Li Ruo didn't say anything, just looked at him angrily.

"What do you want to know? What do you want to ask me?"

At this time, Obsidian also told the other party the truth.

"To tell you the truth, we have seen the corpses of other demons on the road, including the demons who were traveling with you. Why did you lie to us? Why are you the only one who came back alive?"

"Li Ruo, could it be that you colluded with the human race and killed your fellow humans?"

"No, it's not..."

He wanted to refute that it was not because of his own fault, but because other demons wanted to die. In fact, he was completely the victim, very innocent.

However, before he could speak, these demons did not trust him.

"Oh, there's no need to play any more tricks. We won't listen to your sophistry. Obsidian, what are you waiting for? You've already whipped this kid so many times and nothing came out of his mouth. What's more, After reading this brat’s theory of coexistence between humans and demons every day, I think he might have already surrendered to the human race, so why are he waiting for this traitor to be dealt with as soon as possible.”

Obsidian didn't speak. He touched his chin as if he was thinking about something.

"Yes, Obsidian, is it possible that you have some friendship with this kid and you can't bear to let him go?"

Hearing this, Obsidian smiled mockingly.

"Jiaoqing, are you saying that you used to bully him and beat him frequently?"

"Do you believe this yourself?"

"It's not that I pity him. You all know that I'm not a sympathetic person. However, I still want to pry out some information from this kid. After all, the demons sent out before are not as capable. Low, why were they all wiped out suddenly?”

When he said this, he frowned hard and his eyes were cold.

"Besides, this brat is the only one who survives. I wouldn't believe it if there was nothing fishy involved. I just want to know what secrets are hidden in this and who is behind it?"

When he said this, other demons also understood and felt that it made sense.

"Yes, I also want to know who took action against the demons!"

"This time, we have an important mission from above. Don't make any mistakes!"

Several demons discussed for a while, and then whipped Li Ruo again.

"Tell me, who are you colluding with? Who killed the demons?"

"Li Ruo, if you tell me who is colluding with you, maybe we can spare your life. Otherwise, believe it or not, we will kill you now!"

Blood was already flowing from the corner of Li Ruo's mouth, but even at this point, he did not reveal Luo Dan's thoughts, let alone the person behind it.

"No, don't even think about it, I will definitely not tell you."

"You're looking for death!"

Several demons were completely angered by him and planned to deal with him directly.

At the critical moment, Luo Dan and Ye Man suddenly rushed out.

"stop!"

Luo Dan had quick eyes and quick hands and drew a formation directly on the spot. The formation immediately enveloped Li Ruo and blocked a fatal blow for him.

Hearing the violent sound, but the pain did not fall on him, Li Ruo, who had closed his eyes tremblingly, opened his eyes and saw a light blue halo covering himself.

He opened his eyes wide, as if he couldn't believe what he was seeing.

Turning his eyes, he saw Luo Dan and Ye Man appearing beside him. He was very surprised at first, but then he became worried.

Yelled at the two.

"Mr. Luo, Miss Ye, what are you doing here? Run, run, this is the base camp of the demons. You can't fight them. Leave me alone and save your own lives!"

Since Li Ruo came here alone, he had already anticipated his outcome. He did not regret it, but he did not want his two new partners to be in danger because of him.

Regardless of whether they admit it or not, in his heart, they are all his partners, or they are the only ones who do not regard him as an alien, and he is very worried about their safety.

Luo Dan turned around and glared at him, his eyes seemed to be admonishing, but also seemed to hate the iron.

"Shut up and settle the score with you later, you idiot!"

They never expected that this silly boy would come to the Demon Clan's base camp alone. Others would avoid him, but he actually took the initiative to send him to their door.

Luo Dan himself didn't know why he had to turn back to save him.

However, thinking of the innocence and sincerity of this somewhat strange demon, he decided to save his life. Perhaps it was to appease the fluctuations in his heart. If he didn't save this silly boy, he would feel inexplicably uneasy.

"Mr. Luo..."

Although he was scolded, Li Ruo still looked at them with moved eyes. Although he scolded them, he knew that they actually cared about him.

Luo Dan didn't know what to say to this silly boy. Now was not the time to teach him a lesson. The important thing was to deal with these demons.

When Hei Yao saw the two of them, a cruel light flashed in his eyes.

"Well, I didn't expect you to show up. It seems that you are the culprit who killed my people. Since you have thrown yourself into the trap to save such a stupid boy, you are simply looking for death!"

After speaking, he gestured to the other demons, and everyone rushed up and attacked.

Luo Dan mobilized his magic circle while speaking toughly.

"Whether they are looking for death or not, it is still unknown who will win!"

Ye Man also released his pet beast to fight with these demons.

The moment they touched the formation, all the demons felt unbelievable.

"Strange, what kind of formation is this, it can actually trap people completely inside!"

"Maze? What appeared in front of me? How did I walk into the maze?"

So, the only few demons who did not come forward saw that the demons who were trapped in the formation were like being drugged.

They suddenly turned around in place, as if they encountered something terrifying, and then released magic power in all directions. Anyway, they hit Luo Dan and couldn't hurt the man and woman at all.

Hei Yao was so angry that his teeth itched.

His strength was obviously above everyone else. After a large wave of magic power fluctuations, many demons returned to normal.

"Stupid, what are you doing? You are trapped by the formation, but you are just a formation master!"

In everyone's impression, the formation exists as an auxiliary. No one thought that the ability of an auxiliary could be played with so many tricks by this man?

So that they have never seen it, nor experienced it, and stepped on a big pit.

Luo Dan smiled coldly.

"Do you think it's over? No, this is just the beginning. I will tell you what the nightmare of the formation is for you!"

Then, he used the previous tricks and amplified it with the spirit gathering formation.

A large amount of spiritual energy was gathered, which was a huge and compelling force. All the demons were stunned in place, and one or two seemed to have no reaction.

But Luo Dan would not give them a chance to react, and directly attacked them.

"Ah!"

After a while, there was already a wailing sound. The demons had no energy to resist. Wherever the attack of the spirit gathering formation reached, a large number of them fell.

After Luo Dan made a gap in the encirclement, the two worked together to take Li Ruo out.

The two of them ran with Li Ruo. Luo Dan knew that the reason why he could defeat them temporarily was all thanks to the spirit gathering array, but the spirit energy was not inexhaustible.

It was foolish to take risks in the enemy's base camp. As long as they saved Li Ruo and achieved their goal, there was no need for them to continue to deal with it.

The two of them ran all the way to a hidden cave and hid in it.

"Brother Luo, it's too dangerous outside. Let's hide here for the time being."

Luo Dan nodded, stood up and observed the surrounding environment again, and did not refuse.

"This place is good, hidden, and not easy to be discovered."

Both of them breathed a sigh of relief, and helped Li Ruo sit down together.

"Li Ruo, how are you? Are you okay?"

Li Ruo reluctantly shook his head, but his lips were pale and his face was blue, which showed that he was not okay.

Luo Dan couldn't help but frown.

"Don't force it. I have pills here. You can take them to recuperate and stop the bleeding first."

Li Ruo did not refuse, but looked at them with gratitude.

"Thank you, thank you, Mr. Luo, Miss Ye, thanks to you, otherwise I would have died in the base camp today. I didn't expect you to come to save me. I'm the one who implicated you."

"Don't talk so much, take care of yourself quickly, we have to hurry on our way."

Li Ruo stopped talking, swallowed the pill and began to regulate his breath.

The three of them rested for a while, and the beast pet sensed that the demons were approaching.

"These evil beasts came so fast!"

Luo Dan spat and got up in time.

"We can't stay in this place, let's leave quickly!"

The other two had no objections. Luo Dan and Ye Man helped Li Ruo up together. They had to escape quickly again. They escaped for an unknown amount of time before they found a hidden place.

"I set up a barrier outside, and there shouldn't be any demons here."

"Li Ruo, your wound has broken open again, I'll help you stop the bleeding later."

He originally wanted to use pills, but he didn't have any, so he had to use herbs. In fact, he could make pills, but unfortunately there was no furnace here.

"There is no furnace at the moment, so I can't make pills. Please bear with me for a while. I will use herbs to stop your bleeding. It may be a little painful, so bear with it."

Li Ruo nodded weakly, but when the herbs were applied, he still grimaced in pain.

"Alas..."

Luo Dan sighed, feeling a little disappointed.

"Why did you have to go back to the base camp and make yourself suffer like this?"

Li Ruo didn't say anything. He didn't even have the strength to speak now.

Although he had used herbs, they were just herbs. They were not effective enough. Li Ruo still didn't seem to be getting better.

Ye Man knew nothing about alchemy and couldn't help much.

After a while, Li Ruo felt the life in his body slipping away. He smiled bitterly and comforted the two weakly.

"Mr. Luo, Miss Ye, thank you for your kindness, but you don't have to waste your energy on me. I can feel that my body is about to fail. It seems that I am dead. I am very happy to meet you two friends. I will die without regrets."

"You should leave quickly. Don't worry about me. Don't waste these herbs. It is most important to preserve your strength."

Ye Man's eyes were red with emotion. It seemed that tears were flowing out, but she forced them back. Luo Dan's mind was also very complicated. He glared at him fiercely.

"What are you talking about? You won't die. If I say you won't die, you won't die!"

"Don't worry, as long as you have a breath left, I will definitely make up my mind to save you!"

He looked far away at a certain place, as if he had made a decision. He planned to find more rare herbs.

If he couldn't refine the elixir, he could only make up for it in the quality of the herbs.

"I plan to find more rare herbs, Miss Ye, please take care of this place for the time being."

Ye Man seemed to want to say something, but in the end she didn't say anything, just said.

"Have a safe journey, whether you can find it or not, your safety is the most important."

Luo Dan nodded, said nothing more, and left soon.

Ye Man looked at his back for a long time without looking back.

During the search, he occasionally entered a fantasy, and all the illusions in front of him changed.

"What do you want, wealth, women, power, money?"

A long voice came from his side, and everything in front of him was like substance, and the pictures kept changing, directly showing the deepest evil thoughts in human nature.

But Luo Dan knew that there is no free lunch in the world, and pie in the sky will not fall.

Even if there were, he would be careful to distinguish these so-called benefits and whether there were any traps. Otherwise, if he was not careful, he might be wiped out in this world of immortal cultivation.

One temptation after another passed by him, but he remained unmoved and kept his heart.

Huanjing seemed to not believe that there was such a person, and the bewitching voice sounded in his ears again.

"I know, you must want strength, want to be the most powerful person in the world."

Huanjing seemed to see through Luo Dan's heart and laughed. The sound did not sound pleasant at all. At least Luo Dan frowned and did not answer. (End of this chapter)
