The road that could have been completed in an hour took Zhan Chen nearly three hours. At this time, the sky was already white, but the beast tide had not yet receded, but fortunately, the farther out of the mountain range, the fewer demon beasts were encountered.

When he arrived at Chihongzhai, he had already run out of oil, and the replenishment of the elixir to the true yuan required a process, and it was far from hydrolysis to close the fire.

Fortunately, he found that it was still relatively calm here, and only a small number of demon beasts appeared, but they were all killed by the guards at the door.

At this time, Zhan Chen hesitated at the door and didn't go in, because he wasn't sure that Pang Snake hadn't come back yet, but he thought in his heart: "The scale of this beast tide has obviously exceeded the previous few times, according to this trend, I'm afraid this place can't be saved, I should take advantage of the fact that the demon beasts are not rushing over, and flee to Chihong City in one go!"

With a certain idea, he no longer hesitated, gritted his teeth, and continued to rush back along the avenue.

Zhan Chen's estimation was not wrong at all, not long after he left, this place was swallowed up by the wave of demon beasts, and became the front-line command of the demon clan.

After another half a day, Venerable Honghuang had already arrived here and sat on the throne of the council hall.

Under his head, there are seven big demons, all of them have turned into the size of a human at this time, they are the seven demon generals under the Honghuang Venerable, the eighth-order demon beasts are equivalent to the strength of the human martial saint, and they can change the size of their bodies, but they still can't turn into human forms like the Honghuang Venerable.

At this time, I heard Venerable Honghuang say, "Haven't you received any news about that mink?"

"Report to the king, not yet. The demons replied one after another.

"Hmph, a bunch of rubbish!"

At this time, a demon general stood up and said: "King, our subordinates are all over the mountain range, and there are countless low-level demons launched, after looking for so long, even if that mink can hide underground, we should turn it out." ”

"Less nonsense, let's be practical. ”

"I mean, that little thing isn't in the mountains anymore. ”

"Have you looked carefully? The Terrans have dug a lot of tunnels in the mountains for mining. ”

"We've already searched for those places in the king, and we haven't found any clues. I just heard from a subordinate that the last time they found the mink was near a human mine, and a swift wolf chased it away, but never returned. ”

"Why didn't you report such important news early?"

"It's all to blame for my subordinates' obtuseness and delaying the big thing, and it didn't suddenly remember it until today. ”

Venerable Honghuang pondered for a long time and said, "It's too late to say anything now, how many human beings are left alive?"

"King, we killed people all the way we saw them, and we didn't leave a single living mouth. ”

"Bastard, is the clue broken?"

At this moment, a shout suddenly came from the outer gate: "Great King, we have caught a strong man of the human race, and his cultivation is not low!"

"Oh, that's great! You go out and bring him in. ”

After a while, a demon general brought people up, it was Pang Snake, but at this time he no longer had the majesty of the past, he was covered in blood, mortally wounded, and he would choke his breath at any time.

Venerable Honghuang glanced at him and said, "Bastard, he was injured so badly that he was about to die!"

"My lord, I'll give him a breath of relief, and you should hurry up and ask. ”

The demon generals on one side sent a true element to Pang Snake, which made him barely sober up, but when he saw Hong Huang Venerable and several demon generals, he was half frightened to death.

Venerable Honghuang had to say in harmony: "You don't have to be afraid, if you can answer my question well, with my means, I can still let you live." ”

Pang Snake saw at a glance that the strength of the big demon in front of him was unfathomable, so he replied in a weak voice: "Okay, as long as you can save my life, you can say whatever you want." ”

"Well, have you ever seen a white mink?"

"White mink?" Pang Snake muttered, he seemed to feel a little impressed, and suddenly his eyes widened, because he recalled that at the beginning, he sent someone to keep an eye on Zhan Chen, and some of his subordinates reported it, and found that there seemed to be a white first-order demon beast ferret in Zhan Chen's room.

He didn't think much of it at the time, he just laughed it off, thinking to himself how Zhan Chen could get a first-order demon beast to raise, and now it seems that it may be the one that the Honghuang Venerable wants to know.

"Zhan Chen, if it weren't for you, I wouldn't have ended up like this!" Thinking of Zhan Chen, Pang Snake's entire face was distorted, and he wanted to take revenge! ”

"Zhan Chen?" Venerable Honghuang was on a whim, he didn't expect this person to really know.

"Not bad!" said the snake with a cruel laugh.

"How do you know?"

"Because he is my enemy, I have sent men to spy on him. ”

"Where is Zhan Chen?"

"I don't know about this, if he is still alive, he will probably have gone to Chihong City. ”

"Zhan Chen!" The body of the Honghuang Venerable erupted with monstrous flames, startling the surrounding demon generals to retreat one after another.

"You immediately gather all my subordinates for me, I will level Chihong City and turn that Zhanchen out of the ground!"

"Yes!"

"King, what should this human do?"

Venerable Honghuang coldly glanced at Pang Snake, who had lost his usefulness, and threw down a sentence: "You dare to bother me with such a trivial matter? ”

......

At the same time, Zhan Chen also rushed to the foot of Chihong City, but he obviously felt that the atmosphere here had become tense, and the guards at the city gate had doubled, checking the people queuing up to enter the city. Upon learning of the arrival of the beast tide, the residents of this vicinity and the people living in the Chihong Mountains rushed into the city to seek refuge.

Zhan Chen came directly to the guards at the gate of the city, showed them the token of his outer disciple of the Demon Luo Sect, and was able to enter the city immediately, and then found an inn to stay, breathe well in the guest room, and recover the true yuan that was excessively consumed in the process of escaping.

Somehow, however, even when he arrived in the city, he felt insecure, and he seemed to have a sense in his heart that something was going to happen.

Sure enough, early the next morning, terrifying news began to spread in the city: the demon clan was preparing to attack the city and kill all the humans, which seemed to confirm Zhan Chen's speculation.

"No, this Chihong City is not a place to stay for a long time, I have to leave immediately!" Zhan Chen, who had already recovered, quickly made a decision.

So he hurriedly left, but as soon as he arrived at the door of the hotel, he heard someone running and saying: "The demon beast is coming, let's run away!"

Without further ado, he quickly ran in the direction of the city, and when he reached his destination, he saw the city gates closed and guarded everywhere, and it was obvious that the passage out of the city had been closed.

He was secretly anxious, but he saw an acquaintance standing on top of the city, he was Wu Yunfeng, the master of Yunfeng Pavilion, he was overjoyed, and hurriedly called: "Martial Pavilion Master, why are you here?"

"It's you, Zhan Chen!" Wu Yunfeng turned his head to look, and when he saw that it was Zhan Chen, a surprise flashed in his eyes, and he jumped off the city wall dozens of meters high and landed firmly on the ground.

"Martial Pavilion Master, why are you on this city wall?"

"It's hard to put into words, the demon beast is besieging the city, as a strong Emperor Wu, I am also responsible for defending the land, so I am just a trader in Pingsu, but at a critical moment, I am one of the commanders who defend the city. ”

Zhan Chen hurriedly said: "Martial Pavilion Master, this is very good, there is something to ask for below." ”

"What?"

"Can you let me out of town?"

"Out of town?"

"Yes. ”

"That's it, Zhan Chen, you follow me to the city wall to have a look. ”

Zhan Chen was puzzled, and followed Wu Yunfeng up to the city tower, but he was shocked by the scene in front of him, the entire Chihong City was surrounded by demon beasts, and the black pressure was overwhelming, I am afraid that there were millions of them, and it was extremely terrifying for low-level demon beasts to form such a number, and no strong person was willing to face them directly.

Not to mention that there were many existences above the fourth order among the demon beasts, and with such a powerful military force, it would be easy to raze Chihong City.

"Now you should know the situation we are facing, this Chihong City can't get out, relying on the defense of this city, we may be able to support it for a few days, for now, we can only wait for reinforcements from the outside world.

But there is one thing, I don't understand, why those demon beasts besiege us but don't attack, it seems that there are still any intentions. ”

"Then Martial Pavilion Master, I'll go down first. Zhan Chen said disappointedly.

"Hmm. Wu Yunfeng was also absent-minded, and at this time, all his thoughts were on beware of the demon beasts on the other side.

Zhan Chen got down the city wall in a complicated mood and was about to walk back, when suddenly a voice came from a distance and spread throughout the entire Chihong City, making people feel frightened.

"The humans in Chihong City, you hear clearly, I am the master of the Chihong Mountain Range, Venerable Honghuang, you quickly hand over a person named 'Zhan Chen'! Otherwise, I will immediately raze your city and kill all of you!"

"Zhan Chen, isn't that calling me?" Zhan Chen's scalp couldn't help tingling, he didn't remember that he had anything to do with this Honghuang Venerable, but why did he have to embarrass him with this little Martial Venerable.

While he was thinking about it, Wu Yunfeng had already appeared in front of him, looked at him with a puzzled face, and said, "Zhan Chen, I don't know how you got involved with this Honghuang Venerable, but you can't leave for the time being. ”

Zhan Chen suddenly came to his senses, showed a wry smile, and secretly shouted bad luck in his heart: "This is called a self-throwing net, but who would have thought of it?"
