Chapter 166 Maoshan Conference
Upon seeing the six-winged centipede, everyone was terrified. At that moment, they had no intention of fighting and only wanted to run away.
But Partridge Whistle charged forward with his weapon in hand, like a fearless cheetah.
"I'll cover your retreat! Escape and fetch the Daoist sect!"
"No!"
The girl in red shouted, but it was no use.
"Damn it, damn it! Brother, hold on, we'll go out and call for help!"
Chen Yulou knew the situation was urgent, so he immediately shouted and led the remaining people out.
The six-winged centipede was too ruthless; it flung Partridge Whistle away in just a few moves.
The Partridge Whistle's attack was nothing more than a tickle to the six-winged centipede.
Even if you had the Angry Rooster, it would be useless. Of course, the Angry Rooster wasn't very useful in the original story either.
..........................
now.
Seeing that Partridge Whistle had disappeared, the six-winged centipede swung its giant claws like the scythe of death, splattering blood and eliciting screams wherever it went.
Because there are other independent cultivators here.
These are all goals.
After he finished harvesting, he swallowed it whole.
The remaining people were so scared they wet their pants and had no intention of running away.
It's fair to say that after this chaotic battle, everyone's initial fighting spirit has completely faded, making them incomparable.
The centipede opened its blood-red maw and swallowed a living person whole, as easily as swallowing beans.
In the blink of an eye, only a handful of people, including Partridge Whistle and Chen Yulou, had escaped.
Partridge Whistle really wanted to cover the rear, but when he realized that it was ineffective, he had no choice but to leave.
After all, he's not the main character!
Sensing their departure, the six-winged centipede immediately went into hibernation, intending to digest the food in its stomach before making its move again.
The group of Partridge Whistle and the others who ran away stood back to back, their eyes filled with despair and resolve.
"Damn it, there are only a few of us left!"
"Sigh, there's nothing we can do. Let's go back and keep calling for more people!"
They didn't expect things to escalate this much.
It really exceeded my expectations.

the other side.
The leaders of various sects, including Longhu Sect, Maoshan Sect, Wudang Sect, Quanzhen Sect, Gezao Sect, Shenxiao Sect, Qingwei Sect, Donghua Sect, Tianxin Sect, Jingming Dao, Taiyi Dao, Tiandao Sect, Xuandao Sect, Kunquan Sect, and others, all received information about the situation in Xiangxi.
In particular, some of the Taoist priests in their sect were infected by the centipede demon and the Xiangxi Corpse King, which immediately caused a stir.
This time, it has affected the entire western Hunan region.
Those of the Taoist sect would naturally not stand idly by.
What happened next occurred in all the Taoist sects!
Maoshan.
Maoshan Council Hall.
Inside the main hall of Maoshan Temple, incense smoke curled upwards, and a group of Taoist priests dressed in yellow robes stood neatly in the hall.
Their eyes were all focused on the sect leader in front of them, their expressions serious and solemn.
At the very top of the platform stood their Maoshan Sect Leader, dressed in a black and white Taoist robe.
On either side were the elders of Maoshan.
They were wearing purple Taoist robes!
As for those golden and purple Taoist robes, those are only for the Supreme Elders and are not here at the moment.
The head of Maoshan Sect stood in the hall, his posture upright and his demeanor otherworldly.
His eyes were piercing, and his voice was as loud as a great bell.
"Gentlemen, the matter in Xiangxi has become too big. That tomb-raiding sect has gathered a group of people and actually allowed a Xiangxi Corpse King and a centipede demon to wreak havoc in the area, killing the villagers. I think this evil spirit should be dealt with appropriately. At the same time, we should also suppress those Taoist sects! We must not let them run rampant."
"Yes, Master!"
All the Taoist priests in yellow robes responded in unison, their voices shaking the roof tiles.
........................
After surveying the surroundings, the sect leader announced in a loud voice, "This time, I will select someone to lead a team to western Hunan!"
"Sect Leader, the corpse-driving family of Xiangxi is at odds with our Maoshan sect. Would it be inappropriate for us to go there?" At this moment, Maoshan Elder Mao Fei spoke up.
He stood to the side, somewhat hesitant.
There's no way to hesitate. The Maoshan sect and the Cai family of Xiangxi have fought before, so they're practically enemies. Going to their side would just cause trouble.
"Hmph! I believe these short-sighted corpse drivers can distinguish between what's important and what's not!" The sect leader snorted coldly, not taking it seriously.
Others thought the same thing.
"That's right, we must fight the Xiangxi Corpse King, and we must also destroy any centipede demons. If the Cai family, the corpse-driving family, comes to join the fun, then we'll fight them!"
Another Maoshan elder spoke in a booming voice.
This immediately ignited the passion of all the Maoshan Taoist priests.
The sect leader glanced at it and nodded.
"Okay, let's do it that way!"
"Sect Leader, may I ask who is leading the team this time?"
“I think the senior disciple of Maoshan, Shi Jian, is capable. Not only is his skill high, but if he leads his junior brothers out, he will definitely be able to deal with the Xiangxi Corpse King and the centipede demon,” the elder who had just suggested fighting said.
The sect leader shook his head and said, "Normally that's how it is, but this time, Shi Jian is in seclusion and cultivating, so I'm afraid he's not up to the task."
