Chapter 631 I Don’t ChooseSong Jiaojiao left the crack and came to the nearest city.
At this moment, the city has lost its once prosperous and magnificent scenes. Looking around, houses have collapsed and the flat ground is full of potholes. In the ruins, there are mothers holding their children and crying loudly; there are also families surrounding the able-bodied men in the family, calling them father and husband; there are also old people in tattered clothes and messy hair huddled among the ruins, their eyes filled with dead silence.
The wind is blowing coldly.
The evil spirit is everywhere.
Everything is desolate and sad.
Song Jiaojiao, dressed in red, looks particularly out of place here.
In front of her, a wisp of evil spirit knocked a cultivator away. Seeing this, Song Jiaojiao immediately flew forward to rescue the person. At the same time, she turned her resentment into a sword mixed with righteousness and cut off the evil spirit.
The demonic energy that was cut off was split into two, and after a short while it began to wreak havoc again.
Probably realizing that Song Jiaojiao was not someone to be trifled with, the evil spirits circled around Song Jiaojiao and then ran away in a flash.
Song Jiaojiao sneered at this.
"I am Zhu Mo from the Zhu family of Huaizhou. Thank you for saving my life." The man stood up and thanked Song Jiaojiao. Looking at Song Jiaojiao's beautiful face, he felt sincerely grateful in his heart. If it weren't for the senior, he would have been half-crippled today even if he didn't die.
Song Jiaojiao asked: "What happened? Why has such a big change happened both inside and outside the city?"
The city walls and houses collapsed.
The mountains outside the city collapsed, and even the trees were covered with mud.
Zhu Mo said with a heavy face, "It's the demons. Many years ago, cracks appeared in the Rebirth Continent one after another, and those demons crawled out of the cracks. They can disguise themselves as others, or use their own demonic energy to infect others. A while ago, many more cracks opened, but they were all in remote places. I don't know what happened recently, but such cracks can be seen everywhere. You can see it, not only here, but other cities and villages have been destroyed or swallowed by the cracks."
At this point, Zhu Mo's eyes were blurred with tears. He looked at Song Jiaojiao and said in confusion, "Senior, is the Rebirth Continent about to be occupied by the demons?"
Now Immortal Venerable Yue Cheng is in a coma, and Immortal Venerable Xing Jiao is missing. The only powerful ones who can fight now are Immortal Venerable Li He and Immortal Venerable Fan Jing. Although there are many heads of large families, except for a few old ones, the only ones who can really fight are the old ones. The young ones are not even useful.
Song Jiaojiao comforted her, "Don't think too much about it. The most urgent thing now is to find a safe place and rescue all the living people."
Zhu Mo nodded: "Listen to the senior."
In this way, Song Jiaojiao found a temporary camping site nearby, and together with Zhu Mo, they settled all the living people there. They built tents with oilcloth and let the disabled people lie down in them.
Not long after the garrison was established, a group of people from the Immortal Sect came to check it out. There were seven or eight of them in the group, and each of them was filled with the arrogance of the Immortal Sect. When they looked at people, their eyes were full of contempt for ordinary people.
The leader was called Ji Tao. He held a sword in one hand and looked down at the disabled people in the tent. He said arrogantly, "Hey, hey, hey, call your manager out."
Because of physical disability, someone sat on the ground and said to Ji Tao: "This Immortal, the head is not here now. They are all out to rescue people."
Ji Tao frowned, and the woman next to him said unhappily, "Why are you still saving people at this hour? The most urgent task now is to drive away the demons. So, who of you can go and call back your boss?" The person who answered Ji Tao in the tent earlier replied weakly, "My Immortal, you can see that we are a little inconvenient. Otherwise, you can wait a little longer. It's almost sunset, and they will be back soon."
Ji Tao and the woman exchanged a glance, and the woman said worriedly, "Brother, what should we do now? If we fail to complete the task that Master has assigned to us, I'm afraid it will affect Master's opinion of you..."
When Ji Tao mentioned his master, his expression changed. He said coldly, "Since they are hiding and won't come out, force the person in charge to come out..."
The two looked at each other again, and the next moment, the woman waved her hand, and a group of people immediately rushed into the tent and evacuated all the disabled people living in it. Their momentum was so brutal that people couldn't help but feel a little scared.
"You, what are you going to do?"
"Don't you see what's going on? Since you are so ignorant of current affairs, I will come to help you and find the one in charge."
The woman said loudly, exuding the sense of superiority and pride of a cultivator.
A bunch of ignorant mortals should just wag their tails and beg for mercy.
Everyone in the tent was pulled out. Probably because they hadn't showered for a long time, everyone smelled bad. So when they passed by the woman, she couldn't stand the smell and covered her nose with disgust, saying, "It stinks."
When ordinary people heard this, they showed a trace of shame and anger on their faces.
They all lowered their heads, looking as if they were afraid to see anyone.
Ji Tao ignored those people and ordered the person beside him: "Call someone."
The woman understood, and immediately used her own spiritual power to shout: "The head of this garrison, come out. If you don't come out, the old, weak, sick and disabled people in this garrison will not be so lucky..."
The woman yelled around, and Ji Tao became a little impatient, so he ordered directly: "Throw these people to the edge of this crack. Yell once, and if the person in charge doesn't come out, throw someone down..."
The woman said yes and ordered her disciples to drag the group of people to the edge of the crack.
As they were being dragged, the people were wailing and resisting, but Ji Tao and his disciples were indifferent. When Zhu Mo and Song Jiaojiao came back, they saw this scene. When Zhu Mo saw it, he ran up and shouted angrily, "What are you doing?"
Ji Tao and others ignored Zhu Mo's anger. Ji Tao saw Zhu Mo and smiled proudly: "Finally you came out. You are the leader of this group! I didn't expect that you are really a cultivator. But since you are a cultivator, then come with us."
Ji Tao signaled, and his disciples went up to surround Zhu Mo. Seeing this, Zhu Mo panicked and asked, "What are you doing? Do you still have the law?"
The woman beside Ji Tao said with a sweet smile: "Wang Fa, here, my brother is Wang Fa, don't you think so, brother?"
Ji Tao straightened his body. Although he didn't say anything, his expression clearly showed that he acknowledged what the woman said. But the next moment, Ji Tao said, "Now that the demons are invading, all the cultivators from the Rebirth Continent are heading to the front lines to fight the demons. You are guarding such a shabby place. It's totally a waste of your talents."
Zhu Mo: "I am saving people, and also fighting against the demons."
Ji Tao: "Foolish, the most important problem is to fight against the demons. These mortals can't carry anything on their shoulders or hands. What's the point of coming? Now I give you a choice. Either follow me obediently and go to the front line to fight, or jump into this crack with these stupid mortals and don't hold us back."
Zhu Mo gritted his teeth, his stubbornness in his bones made him angry and said, "I don't choose either..."
