When the Game Goes Out of Control

Chapter 3

As the saying goes, those who rely on the mountain eat the mountain, and those who rely on the river eat the water. If you want to live well, you have to find your own resources. And this Tranquil Province, which is adjacent to the headquarters of the famous Devil Sect, the Sun Moon Cult, clearly knew this well, and developed the related businesses like a whirlwind.

Things like explaining the secrets of the Devil Sect to newcomers, leading a group to pay homage to the Devil Sect, and even daring to peddle the Devil Sect's secret manuals and secret medicines on the streets. As for whether it's true or not, let's not talk about it in detail.

Compared to the risks of the latter two, the storyteller's role was much safer. If he spoke well, he'd be rewarded handsomely. If he didn't, he'd only be laughed at.

And today, there was a new story in Spring He House.

"When the world is in chaos, demons will appear. It means that when the world is in chaos, demons will appear.

But does everyone know that demons will appear in this peaceful world? "

The storyteller on the stage slapped his ruler and suddenly raised his voice, as if he was afraid that the audience's attention wouldn't be on him.

With this pretense, it was clear that he was going to talk about something impressive. Someone below the stage immediately responded, "Tell us, what kind of demons will appear in this world?

Could it be that you're talking about the Black Wood Cliff … "

Everyone understood. Wasn't this Devil Sect demon a demon?

Someone immediately mocked, "If that's the case, then there really are a lot of demons and ghosts in this world."

The world was so big, and there was more than one Devil Sect.

Not to mention here, there was the Western Devil Sect, Desert Stone Guanyin, Sacred Water Temple, Shifting Flower Temple, Xingxiu Sect, and so on. Weren't they all so-called Devil Sects?

And these were only the ones on the surface. How could there be so many that were ready to make trouble in the dark?

But the storyteller only shook his head and slowly said, "Ignorant!

I'm talking about real demons today. No matter how powerful those people you're talking about are, they're only mortals. Although they're all tyrants of the jianghu, they can't be compared to them! "

Oh?

Everyone below the stage looked at each other, their interest piqued. What, was he going to talk about gods and demons today?

Fine, let's listen to him for now.

"This story started three years ago —"

Three years ago, Black Wood Cliff.

Ding Xiaoliu was one of the most ordinary members of the Sun Moon Cult. He didn't have any profound martial arts cultivation, his looks were average, and his relationships with people were average. If he was sent out, he would only be cannon fodder.

There were too many low-level followers like him in the entire Divine Sect. Ding Xiaoliu was self-aware. Every month, he worked hard to make a living, unlike Yang Lianting, who was in the hut next to him, who racked his brains to get ahead.

That night, it was his turn to be on duty. After greeting his brothers who had withdrawn, he lifted his spirits and went to stand guard.

In the dead of night, only a sliver of the cold moon hung high in the sky. It was no different from the days and nights of the past.

Ding Xiaoliu was standing guard on the side of Black Wood Cliff facing the cliff, just to prevent outlaws from surrounding and attacking from behind. But who would specially climb up from the bottom of the cliff to attack them?

Not to mention the fact that the situation at the bottom of the cliff was unclear, just the amount of time and energy needed to reach there was enough.

Such a thankless task, presumably the Righteous Dao people were not fools and would naturally consider it.

Therefore, standing guard here was simply a cushy job. There was nothing to be wary of, and there was no harm in secretly sleeping for a while at night.

But tonight was destined to be a restless night.

Just as Ding Xiaoliu was about to fall asleep, a sudden burst of palpitations woke him up. While he was puzzled, he suddenly discovered that something was falling from the sky, setting off a golden-red wave of air as it fell straight down the cliff.

This was terrible. He immediately wanted to call for help, but who would have thought that when he turned around, he would see someone who shouldn't be here — Dongfang Bubai.

Although he had only seen the Cult Master's sacred face from afar and had never seen it up close, he definitely wouldn't mistake this person. But why was the Cult Master dressed in a red robe right now?

It was completely different from the figure in the daytime.

Of course, this kind of secret wasn't something a small character like him could ask about. Ding Xiaoliu still wanted to keep his little life, so he immediately shrank back and called out in a trembling voice, "Cult … Cult Master."

"You also saw it?"

Dongfang Bubai didn't even look at him. His gaze went straight down the cliff. "Alright, then it's you."

Him what?

Before Ding Xiaoliu could react, he had already jumped down the cliff with Dongfang Bubai. To be more precise, he was forced to jump off the cliff.

With his mediocre skills, even if he didn't die, he would be crippled, right?

Ding Xiaoliu's mind was blank. He didn't even feel the pain from the wind blowing against his face.

But fortunately, his Cult Master didn't bring him to seek death. Ding Xiaoliu still managed to reach the bottom of the cliff alive.

The bottom of the cliff that few people visited didn't seem to be as scary as he had imagined. Ding Xiaoliu originally thought that it should be pitch black, but who would have thought that there would be specks of light in the shrubbery. What was even more strange was that these specks of light seemed to be guiding them forward, extending into the distance.

"Cult Master, this place is a bit strange. Why don't we wait until daybreak to explore?"

Ding Xiaoliu, who had lived for so long, had never seen a ghost before, but that didn't mean that there really weren't any. Looking at this strange scene today, could it be that he had walked too much at night and was going to run into a ghost?

He muttered a few words in his heart, hoping to persuade Dongfang Bubai to hurry up and leave.

Who would have thought that a skilled person would be so bold? His Cult Master didn't believe in this at all.

This time, Ding Xiaoliu could only follow his Cult Master to explore with a bitter face. Fortunately, nothing strange happened along the way.

After walking for about the time it took to brew a cup of tea, the path ahead was blocked by a pool of lake water.

Ding Xiaoliu looked at the light that kept flashing on the surface of the lake and knew that something was wrong. Cult Master couldn't be thinking of …

"Go down and get that thing out."

As expected, his bad premonition came true.

Of all the places in the world, it had to land in the lake!

That's not right, why would there be a lake under a ten thousand feet tall cliff?

As Ding Xiaoliu cursed in his heart, he could only brace himself and go down. The lake water was very cold, but it was clear. He swam along with the light, but he didn't lose his way at the bottom. When he swam closer to the light, he couldn't help being shocked when he saw it clearly. What kind of thing was that? It was clearly a person!

"What happened after that?" someone asked anxiously. "What kind of person did Ding Xiaoliu see?"

"A person?"

The storyteller let out a soft laugh and continued, "When Ding Xiaoliu used all his strength to bring that person up, he realized that the person he had fished up might not be a person.

That fellow was born with a head of bright red hair and was wearing a black armor that no one had ever seen before. His body could even give off a dark red qi, and the most eye-catching thing was that the pair of divine weapons that fell with him could also give off a golden-red baleful aura in the darkness.

Do you think there are any divine weapons in the world that can do this? "

"This doesn't mean that this person is a demon. Maybe it's some hidden expert that fell from the sky after being heavily injured."

"That's right, that's right. No one has ever seen the true body of this demon. I don't believe that there are still ghosts in this world. Don't tell me you're just making this up?"

"Am I the only one who cares about divine weapons?

If I can get this divine weapon, wouldn't it be wonderful to roam the martial world? "
