Chapter 338 The Demons

Reimu looked at them cheerfully, light bubbling inside his eyes.

Half the reason he came here was to get at them.

In his eyes, these two were like prey that had been targeted, and would never be able to escape again.

Zhou Tian asked somewhat nervously, "Something is wrong with dude's eyes, could it be that he wants to rob money and sex?"

Gao Song disliked his senior brother, signaling him not to talk nonsense.

Li Mu stifled his laughter and deliberately asked them, "How many people are in your party, and are there any others?"

Zhou Tian replied, "There were three people in total, and a guide who went down after calling out."

Li Mu asked curiously, "He went down after calling out, what did he call out?"

Zhou Tian replied, "Ah...,and then nothing."

Li Mu laughed out loud, and the pair of senior brothers were scared out of their wits, and hurriedly stopped them, "Silence, buddy, don't invite them up."

"What is it?"

Zhou Tian whispered, "I don't know, after the guide fell, the hissing of wild beasts came from below, it didn't sound like a good kind, I guess it's not good to deal with."

Li Mu said with a smile, "So, you guys have been hiding here all this time?"

Zhou Tian responded, "I'm not going to hide it from you buddy, we really can't go down here, we don't know what's down there, but there's definitely something bad."

Gao Song also said, "Brother, my senior brother is right, I advise you not to go down there, hurry back, piggyback on the foot, and bring our brothers up there too!"

"What's wrong with you guys, are you hurt?"

"No, we're fine, not hurt at all." Zhou Tian replied.

"Then why don't you crawl back on your own?"

"It's hard to say, we came down with a passion, and when that monster roared at us, our arms and legs were too sore and weak to climb back up."

Reimu didn't hold back and laughed again.

"What are the names of you two? From which clan?"

Zhou Tian pointed at himself and introduced himself, "My name is Zhou Tian Tian!"

Another finger pointed to the burly man, "His name is Takamatsu!"

Now, even Hope was happy.

The stout man's old face turned red as he explained to them, "Don't listen to his nonsense, his name is Zhou Tian, my name is Gao Song, he's a man with no proper form, and when he says a person's name, he always carries a heavy word."

Li Mu laughed and responded, "Nonetheless, nonetheless, I do think that Tiantian and Songsong's names are more catchy, much better than Gao Song and Zhou Tian."

Zhou Tian patted his thighs and said happily, "I told you, add a word immediately hundred times the spirit, than Zhou Tian, Gao Song Gao most, I do not know brother's name, why does this dog laugh?"

Li Mu said smoothly, "My name is Li Zixuan, it's not a dog, it's a Chi Wolf, it's my spirit pet."

Zhou Tian and Gao Song were greatly surprised and couldn't help but look at Xiao Yuan a few more times.

Suddenly, Zhou Tian tapped his head and said, "I think I've seen it before, let's see, yes, I've seen it in the tavern before I came here."

Speaking of this, pointing at Li Mu, he said, "I said why does it look so familiar, I've seen you too, and there are three other female companions beside you, isn't it you?"

Li Mu nodded his head and admitted, "That's right, I have three female companions who were scared and didn't come down, they are all waiting for me up there."

Zhou Tian said enviously, "Brother Li is blessed with great good fortune, having three beautiful women with him is truly breathtaking."

Li Mu waved his hand, "Nonsense, what is this called breathtaking, you guys still haven't answered my question, which clan are you from? What is the purpose of coming here?"

Gao Song said, "We are senior brothers, both disciples of the Bright Wheel Sect, and we have come to the Ghostly Underworld Cave this time for..."

Before he finished his words, he was interrupted by Zhou Tian, "Alright, it's almost time, let's not ramble on with others about our little matter."

Li Mu knew that he was not willing to disclose the bottom line, and did not continue to pursue the question, anyway, he had long been aware of the purpose of the two, so why force them to say it in person.

He said politely with his mouth, "Two brothers, do you intend to go down with me or continue to hide here?"

Zhou Tian froze for a moment, then said anxiously, "Brother Li, I just said that you can't go down here, there are monsters in the depths of the Ghost Cave, and they're very dangerous, you'll definitely run into them when you go down there, so you might as well return before it's too late."

When he finished, he looked at him with a hopeful expression.

Li Mu nodded at the duo, "Alright then, you guys continue to hide here, I'll go down and take a look."

The words landed in his mouth, no longer paying any attention to them, picking his way through the protruding rocks and continuing to climb downward.

Zhou Tian called out in a low voice, "Brother Li, Brother Li, don't be impulsive! I advise you not to go."

Li Mu smiled and shook his hand at him, ignoring his advice as the ghostly mist gradually obscured his figure and he moved further and further away from the Zhou Gao duo.

In fact, Li Mu didn't want to continue climbing down, however, in order to see Xu Pingru, he had to get the Wu Teng branch.

And with the Wu Teng branch growing deep in the Ghost Cave, he had to choose to take the risk.

After climbing like this for a while longer, Hope suddenly called out, "Master, stop, something's climbing up!"

Li Mu hurriedly stopped moving and scanned downward with his eyes, but he saw nothing.

He knew that Hope was a god, and that the acuity of her senses was stronger than his, and the range of her senses was far greater than his.

"Are you sure something's coming up?" Liamu asked.

Hope looked downward nervously, her two Chinese knots up high.

Suddenly, it said sharply, "It's a kind of giant stern ghost, very ferocious looking, there are a lot of them, master, climb up quickly!"

Without saying a word, Li Mu climbed upwards on his hands and knees, his body as agile as an ape.

Hope, however, exclaimed, "No, they're faster than you, we'll be caught up, master, prepare to fight!"

Li Mu stopped saying anything and quickly crawled back to the stone platform where his master and brothers were hiding.

Seeing him return hurriedly with a serious expression, Zhou Tian asked nervously, "Brother Li, what's wrong?"

"Your best friend is here!" Reimu returned in a smooth voice.

"My good friend?" Zhou Tian looked at him in disbelief.

Then, surprised, he asked, "It's weird, monsters coming up?"

"Coming up, where are your weapons, take them out and get ready to fight!"

The brothers grimaced and one pulled out a pistol, their bodies shivering into a ball.

Li Mu said to them, "Don't be afraid, I'm here, all of you get behind me, I'll face the enemy head on."

As they spoke, there was a commotion below them, like there was a lot of stuff that was coming towards them.

After another moment, Li Mu finally saw his opponent's honorable face.

It was only that these giant ghosts were naked, with jagged fangs, and their bodies were incredibly tall, with hideous bones and flesh.

They clung to the rock face and climbed upward with agility and surprising speed.

Li Mu drew out his plate-faced knife and cursed loudly at the several stern ghosts rushing at the front, "Rabbit brat, where's my old man, come on, let's have a fight!"

Not long after, the stern ghosts rushed to their front, opened their mouths, and lunged at them.

"Good coming!" Li Mu shouted, and with a flash of the blade, several giant ghosts were split in two and fell down with a strange cry.

Li Mu laughed, "Weak chicken, not so good, I thought it was so powerful!"

The other ghosts continued to pounce, Little Brother Li's bravado surged to the heavens, the plate-faced knife slashed left and rolled right, and the ghosts fell down one after another, surprisingly, none of them could get close to him.

The minds of these beasts were quite high, seeing the might of their opponents, they didn't dare to test their swords with their bodies anymore, they all dodged far away and surrounded this stone platform.

Little Brother Li won't spare the ghost, you guys hide far away, I'll use the gun to blast instead.

He ripped his shotgun out of his back, not even aiming it, and specialized in hitting the areas where the ghostly creatures were dense.

With the sound of gunfire, many ghostly creatures were shot and crashed down, screaming endlessly.

The ghosts were scared and didn't dare to surround too close, they all stayed far away and roared uncontrollably at them.

Zhou Tian shivered and said, "Li, Brother Li, truly, truly the God of Heaven, brother, the brothers are relying on you."

Li Mu gave them a blank look and instructed the two brothers, "You two don't stay idle, keep an eye on the top, and if you find any ghostly creatures circling around the top, immediately use your guns to shoot them down for me."

"Good, Brother Li don't worry, the top is ours."

The brothers fought and kept an eye on the ghosts, shooting them down whenever they noticed one trying to get around their heads.

After a few shots, the ghostly creatures only dared to surround them on three sides, not daring to climb above them anymore.

The two sides were locked in a standoff, and for a while, no one could do anything about it.

Hope had been watching the giant ghosts and suddenly said, "Master, I know what kind of monsters they are."

"What are they?"

"The Mistletoe Demons, greedy by nature and addicted to killing, they are Mistletoe Demons!"

Without waiting for Li Mu to reply, Zhou Tian said in surprise, "Brother Li, you, your spirit pet can talk?"

Li Mu glanced at him and replied nonchalantly, "What's all the fuss and talk about, my spirit pet can even sing."

"Terrific, terrific, Brother Li's ability to find women is number one in the world, and his ability to raise spirit pets is also number one in the world, Mister Zhou is convinced!"

"Gao Mou is also convinced!" Gao Song hurriedly echoed a sentence.

"Cut the crap and keep an eye out!"

Little Brother Li responded without a word of humor, crouched down, and asked Hope, "Do you have any way to retreat from the enemy?"

Hope put her mouth to his ear and muttered in a low voice, "By forcing the death aura out of you, they will definitely fear you and will retreat without a fight."

"Yes, but you have to tell me what I have to do?"

"It's simple, if the master closes his breath and doesn't allow the living breath to enter his body, the dead qi will breed and they will naturally sense it."

Reimu did as he was told and quietly closed his breath.

A strange aura rose from his body, at first it was only faint if anything, but later on, the aura became more and more intense, and the ferociousness within the ghost cave was overwhelming.

While Zhou Tian and his duo didn't feel anything obvious, the ghosts began to riot.

They didn't dare to howl at each other anymore, instead, many of the ghostly creatures shivered and subconsciously retreated towards the bottom.

There's a door, Li Mu was overjoyed and continued to close his breath, forcing the ghosts to retreat uncontrollably.

Zhou Tian called out in surprise, "Brother Li, they've escaped, look, the ghosts have escaped."

Li Mu held his breath, which have the time to take care of him, eyes not good beads look at Xiaoyuan, that means to ask, line did not line ah, and then hold down, the old man suffocated to death.

Hope encouraged him, "Master, they're scared, try harder and scare them all away!"

The ghostly creatures were truly afraid, retreating faster and faster, and finally, all of them chose to escape, retreating like a tidal wave.
