Chapter 384: Chapter 384: The Last Night?

The laughter of Leng Hu made Yun He, Zhou Xuan, Zhan Lingtian, Li Haoran, Jiese, and the others glare at him with anger.

“What are you staring at? I’ll cut you down if you keep looking!” Leng Hu threatened.

His eyes were cold, filled with murderous intent.

“Senior Brother Leng, don’t mind them,

they’re just a bunch of losers. No need to get angry with them.” Seeing Leng Hu get angry and about to confront Yang Yan and the others, Da Niu hurriedly stepped out and placed himself between them, speaking.

Leng Hu snorted coldly.

“I haven’t killed you yet, which is already a mercy on my part.

And you dare to get angry at me? Truly a bunch of foolish righteous cultivators!

Enough!

Once I’m done using you, I’ll kill you!

I don’t need to care about you dead people,” he said consolingly to himself.

He then stopped looking at Jiese, Yun He, and the others, turning his gaze toward the tall Demon Path Demon Son in front of him.

“Da Niu, you were right. Compared to before, you’ve become much more sensible!” Leng Hu said.

Sensible?

The tall demon child, Da Niu, sighed in his heart.

He didn’t want to be sensible!

He was just afraid of dying!

“Da Niu, which level have you reached in your Bull Demon Divine Skill cultivation?” Leng Hu asked at this time.

Da Niu scratched his head.

“The eighth floor!”

Leng Hu nodded slightly.

“Not bad, the eighth floor.

Continue your cultivation diligently, and my position will be yours in the future.”

“Yes, yes!” Da Niu bowed and said.

Suddenly, chaos erupted from the front, drawing everyone’s attention.

“We’ve captured one!” Leng Hu said with a smile.

On the road ahead, Miao Yin led several people from the Evil Demon Sect, escorting a woman along.

“It’s Miss Yao. She’s been captured!” Jiese said in a tense voice.

Li Haoran sighed helplessly.

“Now, only Miss Yan is left!” he said.

“The only hope, wait, look at who’s binding Miss Yao!” Jiese hurriedly reminded.

Li Haoran frowned deeply.

“It’s Miao Yin, one of the Three Demon Women. She’s not dead and has appeared again!

So that means…”

His expression changed.

“Hmm, that Demon Dao Expert is most likely also here.

This is troublesome!

With that expert present, the righteous elders won’t be able to fight them off!” Jiese said with worry.

In a short time, Yao Na walked into the crowd with a bleak expression.

“Sorry, everyone, I’ve let you down. I didn’t manage to escape,” she said, her eyes lowered.

Jiese clasped his hands together.

“Miss Yao, you did your best.

The opponent is too strong for us to handle!” he said.

“But don’t be too pessimistic, we still have one person who hasn’t been brought back!”

Yanyu Xun!

“Hahaha, just one person left unreturned, and you think there’s still hope?” Leng Hu mocked, looking at Yang Yan and the others.

Jiese, Li Haoran, Zhan Lingtian, and Yun He ignored Leng Hu.

Leng Hu sneered.

“Let me tell you, she won’t escape either!

Even if she does escape, it’s because we allowed it!

Because dear friends, we already have a plan!” he said smugly.

“As for what the plan is, I won’t be telling you!

But when you see it, you’ll surely despair!”

These words made Jiese, Li Haoran, and the others turn pale.

“From what I see, your plan,

it’s probably to use us as leverage to force the righteous elders to turn back.

Then ambush them on their return, right?” Yang Yan spoke from the crowd.

Everyone suddenly turned their heads, focusing their gaze on him.

“You…” Leng Hu’s eyes narrowed.

He stared at Yang Yan like a snake!

“Are you perhaps wondering how I knew?

It’s simple!

Given the hatred between the righteous sects and the Evil Demon Sect, you captured us but didn’t immediately execute us.

Instead, you allowed us to live and brought us here!

Plus, you just mentioned waiting to use us before killing us.

And the blank expression on your face when I mentioned it!

All of this is enough for me to deduce your plan!” Yang Yan said calmly.

“Miss Yao, when you were captured, was it because someone cut off your escape route?”

This question made Yao Na reflexively reply.

“Yes!”

“Hmm, this way, it becomes even more certain.

Their plan is just as I thought,” Yang Yan continued.

Jiese, Li Haoran, Yao Na, and the others grew even more anxious and worried after hearing Yang Yan expose the Evil Demon Sect’s plan.

If Yanyu Xun really managed to escape and meet up with the elders of the righteous sects, she would surely inform them of everything that happened between them to each sect’s elders.

Once the elders of the righteous sects learned they were surrounded, they would undoubtedly come back to rescue them!

And upon their return, they would fall into the Evil Demon Sect’s trap and ambush!

Moreover, with the action of the Demon Dao Expert who killed Mo Bai, the odds of victory for the Evil Demon Sect were quite high!

Yet if Yanyu Xun didn’t escape, they were doomed as well.

This plan seemed almost unsolvable!

“Heh, you’re certainly smart and not wrong in your deductions!

But even knowing this, what can you do with your current cultivation?

Do you have the ability to spread our plan out from here?

Even if you do, while you’re in our hands,

the plan will succeed!

You, along with those righteous elders, will die all the same!” Leng Hu said coldly.

“You kid, your cleverness is quite something!”

In his heart, Leng Hu harbored a desire to kill Yang Yan!

Yang Yan’s intelligence made him feel uneasy and frustrated!

“They are still useful. When it’s all over, do whatever you want with them!” a cold female voice interrupted Leng Hu’s brewing murderous intent.

It was Miao Yin!

In her heart, Yang Yan was crucial!

So, although she seemingly condemned Yang Yan to doom with her words, in reality, it was Leng Hu who was as good as dead in her eyes!

“Whoever dies, he won’t!” Miao Yin thought to herself.

She restrained herself from looking at Yang Yan, fearing that seeing him might cause her to lose composure and ruin their plan!

“I understand, don’t worry!

I won’t kill him now; I’ll make him watch as the righteous elders fall.

Once his hope is shattered, then I’ll kill him!” Leng Hu said sinisterly.

His heart was truly vicious!

And because Yang Yan unveiled the Evil Demon Sect’s plan, Jiese, Li Haoran, and the others trusted him even more.

Even Yao Na had completely changed her opinion of Yang Yan.

“He revealed the Evil Demon Sect’s plan; he’s not a bad person and won’t betray us or the Demon Cleansing Alliance’s plan!

I suspected him, and I was wrong!

I’ll find a chance to apologize to him privately!” Yao Na thought.

The group continued on their way under Leng Hu’s lead as darkness fell deeper.

Along the edge of a forest, they stopped.

“Rest here and wait for news from the front!” Leng Hu called out.

The group stopped, and Yang Yan, Yun He, and Zhou Xuan gathered together.

Zhou Xuan was seriously injured; without Yang Yan’s support, she wouldn’t have been able to walk at all.

“Junior Sister Yun He, I want to apologize to you!” she said softly.

Tears welled up in Zhou Xuan’s eyes, and her lips were a bit pale!

“Senior Sister Zhou, what are you talking about? You have nothing to apologize for!

As fellow righteous martial artists, it’s my duty to take care of you!” Yun He replied.

“I have wronged you!

What I want to apologize for isn’t about you taking care of me; it’s about something else.

I must tell you now because I fear I might never get another chance.” Zhou Xuan said with melancholy.

Since learning about the Evil Demon Sect’s plan, everyone present except for Yang Yan, Zhan Lingtian, Yun He, and the others

knew that their time alive was limited!

“Senior Sister Zhou, we will live for hundreds of years, there will be chances to talk,” Yun He comforted.

Zhou Xuan held Yun He’s hand.

“No, there won’t be any chances left!

Let me finish, okay?”

“Hmm, go ahead.” Yun He didn’t argue further.

Zhou Xuan looked at Yun He, then nestled in Yang Yan’s arms.

“I’m sorry to you, I’ve fallen for Senior Brother Yang.

I really couldn’t control myself!

Please forgive me, will you?”

Yun He was stunned.

This…

Yang Yan: “…”

“Senior Brother Yang, please don’t reject me!

After all, we are about to die, consider it my last wish!

Promise me, let me be your woman!

In these final moments, let me stay with you until the next life!

Until forever!” Zhou Xuan continued.

She confessed her deep feelings to Yang Yan!

“Junior Sister Yun He, if you forgive me, will you join us?

We don’t have much time left!

Let’s cherish our final joyful moments together!”

She extended an invitation to Yun He from Yang Yan’s embrace!

Yun He looked at Zhou Xuan, then at Yang Yan.

“Senior Brother Yang…”

Yang Yan was at a loss for words, unable to respond.

At this moment, Leng Hu approached from the distance.

“Hahaha, you righteous fools!

Let me give you some good news, we’ve captured another one!”

Behind him, Miao Yin returned with another woman.

Yanyu Xun!

Her face was pale, clearly showing signs of serious injury!

“I won’t disturb you further; have your chat, as it’s your last night in this world!” Leng Hu turned and left.

Miao Yin pushed Yanyu Xun against a tree and left the area.

Once they departed, Jiese, Li Haoran, and Yao Na approached Yanyu Xun.

“We thought you had escaped, but it turns out…” Jiese said defeatedly.

“Luckily, you didn’t escape, or else you would have fallen into the Evil Demon Sect’s trap!

It would not only have endangered you but also the elders of various righteous sects!”

Yanyu Xun didn’t speak; she simply opened her mouth and used secret transmission to communicate a few words.

“I actually did get away, but then I came back!

Because the elders from various righteous sects learned of the Evil Demon Sect’s plan!

They sent me back to find you!

Yes, you, Master Jiese!”
