Chapter 136 Performing rituals for believers and guiding the souls of the dead.
As soon as Li Tong finished speaking, six black beast demons sprang out from the shadows and pounced on Jiang Han and the man and woman. If they were scratched by the black beast demons' claws, they would suffer serious injuries. Neither of them expected that Li Tong would attack them, and their faces were filled with disbelief.
"Ice Block, Ice Lock, Bone Crusher!!!"
Several ice crystal chains shot out from the ground and tightly bound the Black Beast Demon. Then, with a snap of Jiang Han's fingers, the Black Beast Demon, frozen into an ice sculpture, turned into ice shards and dissipated into the air.
Jiang Han looked at Li Tong and said calmly, "The Black Beast Demon has been dealt with. Are you going to take action personally?"
"You think you can ruin our plans and court death?" Li Tong said with a ferocious expression, pulling out a purple bead and crushing it. The stench filled the maze, making it hard for people to open their eyes.
"Damn, are you trying to suffocate me?" Jiang Han was speechless, staring at Li Tong and saying calmly, "If that's all the strength you have, I should send you on your way."
"Hey, if you don't get your girlfriend out of here, inhaling too much of this miasma will turn her into an idiot, if not a monster."
The boy from the Shadow faction helped the girl next to him and thanked her repeatedly, saying, "Thank you, but please be careful."
After the Shadow-type boy left, dozens more Black Beast Demons appeared around Li Tong. This was his confidence; he believed that Jiang Han could handle dozens of Black Beast Demons, given his ability to deal with six of them.
Jiang Han flipped his right hand and the dark-colored Snow Dragon Blade appeared in his hand, while the Shadow Boots, rich in dark aura, emerged from his feet.
Before Li Tong could react, Jiang Han transformed into a shadow and darted among the black beast demons. The Snow Dragon Blade in his right hand flew up and down, the ice blade constantly slashing at the black beast demons. His left fist, wrapped in cyan-purple lightning, swung out and struck the black beast demons that rushed forward. With ice and lightning attacking simultaneously, the black beast demons that blocked Jiang Han's way were either blasted to pieces by the lightning or frozen into ice sculptures.
In just two or three minutes, Jiang Han easily dispatched dozens of black beast demons, and Li Tong retreated continuously upon seeing this.
As Li Tong retreated, he constructed a star map. Once the star map was completed, several ice locks attacked Jiang Han, attempting to stop his advance.
"Playing with ice with me? You're still too green." Jiang Han said, swinging the Snow Condensing Dragon Blade and slashing at the ice lock. Crack! In the blink of an eye, the ice lock turned into ice shards that scattered in the air.
Seeing that the ice lock couldn't stop Jiang Han, Li Tong turned to run, but before he could take a few steps, a lightning python struck him head-on.
Crackling sounds filled the air as purple lightning crackled around Li Tong. The ones who struck were Xu Zhaoting and Zhang Lulu, who were hiding around the corner. If Jiang Han hadn't intervened, Xu Zhaoting would have saved those two silly fools.
"Jiang Han, what should we do with this guy? Just kill him like before?" Xu Zhaoting walked over and kicked Li Tong, who was lying on the ground convulsing, and said.
Jiang Han glanced at Li Tong and said calmly, "It's not a good idea to commit murder here in a school."
When Li Tong heard Jiang Han say that, he immediately breathed a sigh of relief. But before he could react, an ice blade pierced his chest. Then, with his eyes wide open, he was covered by ice and turned into an ice sculpture. Finally, he turned into specks of ice and snow and dissipated into the air.
"Xu Zhaoting, did you see that senior from earlier? How did he disappear in a flash?"
Jiang Han pretended to look around as if he were genuinely searching for Li Tong. An outsider might actually think Li Tong had "left" on his own. Jiang Han sighed, "Hey, why is this senior leaving in such a hurry? Did he forget to bring the laundry back to the dorm?"
Xu Zhaoting and Zhang Lulu were speechless. Your acting was so fake.
However, Xu Zhaoting also understood Jiang Han's meaning: they wanted to help these students who were lost in Black Pepper Listening find peace.
Most of those shrouded in the Night Domination Array were at the level of the Gray-Clad Cultists. Apart from the Black Beast Demon being a bit troublesome, Xu Zhaoting and Zhang Lulu had no problem protecting themselves. Therefore, after dealing with Li Tong, Jiang Han separated from Xu Zhaoting and Zhang Lulu.
The killing—no, the ritual of deliverance—continued. The gray-robed cultists hidden among the students were all delivered by Jiang Han and his group.
On the other side, Mo Fan had just found the Shadow Beast following the little mudfish's guidance when he encountered Luo Song, Shen Mingxiao, and Fu Tianming, who happened to be passing by. Shen Mingxiao pointed at the Shadow Beast and said, "Look, it's the Shadow Beast, and the Great Demon King Mo Fan is there too."
"So you're the Great Demon King Mo Fan. I advise you to hand over the Shadow Beast to us, or you'll regret it," Luo Song said, his fat face jiggling.
Mo Fan had no intention of fighting them, and said in an unfriendly tone, "You'd better not mess with me."
"Oh ho, you've got quite the nerve. I'd like to see what you're really capable of." Shen Ming laughed. As a young master from a powerful family, he looked down on people like Mo Fan who came from a poor background. If Jiang Han hadn't displayed terrifying strength back then, he wouldn't have taken Jiang Han seriously.
That's how people from powerful families are; they always look down on magicians who come from the lower classes. Bai Zangfeng and Shen Mingxiao are examples of this. As for Zhuang Lifeng, he only wanted to recruit Jiang Han because of the strength Jiang Han had shown.
"Shen Mingxiao, Luo Song, how about we make a deal?" Fu Tianming tried to maintain his composure and said slowly and deliberately.
Luo Song and Shen Mingxiao looked over and asked in unison, "What deal?"
"I'm not really interested in the opportunity to cultivate in the Three-Step Tower. What I'm interested in is what's inside the Shadow Beast. If we join forces to kill Mo Fan, what's inside the Shadow Beast is mine, and the opportunity to cultivate in the Three-Step Tower is yours, how about that?" Fu Tianming said.
Luo Song and Shen Mingxiao had no idea what Fu Tianming was planning, but Mo Fan knew it very well.
Then he looked at Luo Song and Shen Mingxiao and said indifferently, "I advise you to be careful of this Fu Tianming. He is a lackey of Black Pepper. If you get bitten, you'll be in big trouble if you get a rabies vaccine."
"Black Pepper's lackey??" Luo Song and Shen Mingxiao were stunned for a moment, but still kept a distance from Fu Tianming.
"Luo Song, Shen Mingxiao, don't be fooled by Mo Fan. He just wants to monopolize the Shadow Beast and is afraid of being surrounded by us, so he came up with this despicable scheme to sow discord against us," Fu Tianming said with a smile.
Luo Song and Shen Mingxiao had conflicts with Mo Fan, but they hadn't become enemies like in the original story. Therefore, they both knew for a moment whether to trust Fu Tianming or Mo Fan. If they trusted Mo Fan, they might miss the opportunity to enter the Three-Step Tower. As for trusting Fu Tianming, that was more dangerous. If Fu Tianming was really one of Black Pepper's people, they would be in danger.
In an instant, Luo Song, Shen Mingxiao, Mo Fan, and Fu Tianming formed a triangle, surrounding the Shadow Beast in the middle.
None of the four dared to make the first move, and they all watched each other warily. Fu Tianming secretly passed a message to Yu Ang, waiting for Yu Ang to send people to support him. At that time, not only could they get their hands on the Holy Spring, but they could also get rid of Mo Fan, the priest's enemy, and perhaps even be promoted to black-robed priest.
However, it was not Yu Ang who arrived first, but Jiang Han, who had already performed the rites for six or seven gray-robed cultists.
"Wow, there are quite a few people here. Are they all waiting for me?" Jiang Han said with interest.
"Jiang Han, what are you doing here?" Shen Mingxiao said in shock.
Wasn't Jiang Han supposed to be refusing to take the entrance exam? How come he's here? Luo Song's face was filled with disbelief. Jiang Han said calmly, "Fu Tianming, right? Time to hit the road."
"You... what do you want to do? This is a school. If you dare to kill me, the school will definitely punish you." Fu Tianming said, and started to back away. He was joking. Jiang Han could easily beat both new and old students during the freshman competition. Fu Tianming didn't want to try to find out just how terrifying Jiang Han's strength was now.
"No, I don't kill people, I only perform rituals to guide the souls of the dead," Jiang Han said calmly.
