My Beasts Grind Proficiency For Me-Chapter 190 - 95: A Taste of Their Own Medicine

They had come up empty again. Wei Yingduo was growing agitated; that little brat from the Yu Family was too good at hiding. Despite all their men and the time they had spent, they still had nothing to show for it. The patriarch was already growing displeased.

The chaos created by the Demon Cultivators wouldn’t last forever. They had to erase all potential evidence and loose ends before the Northern Army Governor’s Mansion could intervene.

If they made a single mistake, they would all be annihilated, their bodies left unburied.

Just then, a plume of black energy shot into the sky, morphing into a skull reeking of dense Yin Qi. It descended and enveloped the three Wei Family disciples at the back of the group.

Piercing screams erupted from within the skull, but they fell silent just a moment later.

Wei Yingduo and the rest of the Wei Family disciples were stunned. They had never expected a Demon Cultivator to attack them.

The three devoured disciples were all skilled members of the family. To be killed so silently meant the attacker had to be a Great Demon Cultivator at the Foundation Establishment level.

"My lord, please, stay your hand! We are all from the Wei Family, serving under Lord Yan Gao of the Profound Sun Demon Sect! We’re on the same side! My lord, don’t mistake friends for foes!"

A few moments later, a gaunt young man in black robes with a somber expression appeared.

"How ridiculous. You dogs of the Profound Sun Demon Sect dare to claim we’re allies? Such audacity. You’re courting death!"

The young man flicked a finger, unleashing a beam of Finger Force steeped in dense Yin Qi.

One of the Wei Family disciples behind Wei Yingduo, despite having already activated his Defensive Spirit Light, was pierced with ease. A bloody hole appeared on his forehead, and with a muffled grunt, he plummeted from the sky.

Watching the Demon Cultivator slaughter his men as if they were chickens, a chill ran down Wei Yingduo’s spine. He knew Yan Gao’s name wouldn’t protect them now.

The once-arrogant Wei Family disciples behind him now cowered like quails, trembling with anxiety.

"May I ask what my lord seeks by stopping us? The Wei Family will do everything in our power to satisfy your request."

"I was merely planning to capture some blood-food to feed my True Demon. However, since you are all lackeys of the Profound Sun Demon Sect, you’ve piqued my interest. From this day forward, you will renounce the Profound Sun Demon Sect, switch your allegiance, and serve my Red Yin Demon Sect," Yang Jing said, disguised as a Demon Cultivator.

Wei Yingduo cursed his luck inwardly. There was a long history of conflict between the Red Yin Demon Sect and the Profound Sun Demon Sect. If it weren’t for the Northern Army Governor’s Mansion, the two Demon Sects would have gone to war long ago.

’If I’d known this Demon Cultivator was a True Disciple of the Red Yin Demon Sect, I never would have mentioned Yan Gao’s name.’

"My lord! We serve the Demon Sect diligently. Why must you make things so difficult for us?"

Yang Jing looked at him as if he were an idiot.

"I am a Demon Cultivator. Are you trying to reason with me? Go explain the situation to your patriarch at once and have him switch allegiances. If you try any tricks, don’t say I didn’t warn you."

Wei Yingduo could only agree, his face a mask of misery. ’Being a collaborator for a Demon Sect isn’t easy. Now I’m caught in the middle of a conflict between two True Disciples. What am I supposed to do?’

He was about to leave with the other Wei Family disciples.

"Wait!"

Yang Jing’s words made his heart skip a beat.

"One person is enough to deliver the message. The rest can stay and serve as blood-food."

"No!" 𝘧𝓇𝑒𝑒𝑤ℯ𝑏𝓃𝘰𝑣ℯ𝘭.𝘤ℴ𝘮

Before the Wei Family disciples could even cry out for mercy, beams of frigid Divine Light froze them into ice sculptures that crashed to the ground.

Wei Yingduo felt a beam of Divine Light graze his body, causing the Spiritual Light of his Defensive Spiritual Artifact to waver. The mere aftershock was enough to make him shiver uncontrollably, frost instantly forming on his eyebrows.

He was no stranger to the cruelty of Demon Cultivators, but he had always been on the side of the oppressor, helping the Demon Cultivators of the Profound Sun Demon Sect torment mortals and Independent Cultivators. When it came to wiping out entire families, it was his people who led the Demon Cultivators to their victims’ doors.

Only now, as a victim, did Wei Yingduo truly realize that Demon Cultivators were man-eating tigers. His shoulders slumped, his courage shattered. Like a beaten dog, he flew toward his family’s estate.

Once he was far away, Yang Jing activated the Five Clouds Pouch, scooping up the ice-encased Wei Family disciples from the ground and beginning his interrogation high up in the clouds.

"Master, will this be enough to lure out Yan Gao?"

Yinjiao materialized from within the misty clouds.

"Given the deep-seated hatred between the Profound Sun Demon Sect and the Red Yin Demon Sect, I’m eighty percent sure Yan Gao will come. If we put some pressure on the Wei Family, it’ll be a certainty."

As Yang Jing spoke, he circulated his Magical Power, and the ice encasing the Wei Family disciples instantly melted away.

His Five Elements Wheel was infused with Taiyin Essence Qi, and empowered by his Five Elements Great Escape Talent, he could conjure all sorts of water-shaped Magic with ease, each imbued with pure Yin Qi.

He could produce a passable imitation of the Red Yin Demon Sect’s Taiyin Freeze Demon Scripture, achieving about thirty to fifty percent of its true power.

These locals from the Liao Kingdom were unsophisticated; naturally, they wouldn’t spot any flaws in his act.

The moment they were frozen, the Wei Family disciples had thought they were dead. Even after the ice melted, they were still terrified.

They shivered for a long while before realizing they were, in fact, still alive.

"My lord, spare our lives! Spare us!"

As soon as they came to their senses, they began kowtowing and begging for mercy.

Yang Jing took out the Demon-Catching Tripod. The Yin Death Qi emanating from it instantly drained all the color from the Wei Family disciples’ faces, leaving them deathly pale.

He activated the Demon-Catching Tripod, and chains shot out from within, snaring one of the Cultivators and dragging him toward it.

The Cultivator let out a squeal like a stuck pig, soiling himself as he clawed desperately at the clouds beneath him, only to grasp at empty air.

The next moment, the Cultivator’s body fell into the Demon-Catching Tripod, and he was silenced in an instant.

’How undignified.’

Yang Jing frowned and waved his sleeve, dispersing the foul odor.

"I ask, you answer."

After that display of power, the remaining Cultivators were scared witless. They answered whatever Yang Jing asked without the slightest hesitation, completely disregarding their Dao-heart oaths as they spilled everything they knew.

Yang Jing cross-examined the Cultivators’ testimonies. After confirming they were telling the truth, he conjured a Magic Sword and slashed.

The hopeful expressions on the Cultivators’ faces froze. An instant later, they were incinerated into ash by the heat emanating from the Magic Sword.

The Demon-Catching Tripod couldn’t stomach it any longer and spat out the Cultivator it had swallowed. His body had been corroded by the Yin Evil Qi within the tripod; he had been dead for some time.

Yang Jing shot a disdainful look at the seemingly indignant Demon-Catching Tripod.

He then released the bodies of those frozen to death inside the skull, piled them together with the other corpse, and with a flick of his finger, sent a spark to incinerate them all to ash. Afterwards, he condensed some clean water and washed the tripod.

By this time, Iron Head and Ji Feng had also finished disposing of the corpse that had fallen to the ground earlier.

"Master, what are our next steps?"

Yang Jing pondered for a moment before replying,

"First, we’ll wait outside the Wei Family’s estate. We’ll kill anyone who comes out. Consider it collecting some interest for our comrades in the Demon Suppression Army who died at their hands."
