Compared to the connections between the other exorcists and demons that Kaguya Takayama knew, the connection between Akikawa and Kagelan was closer to each other.

There seems to be no clear distinction between dominance and subordination between Mingchuan and Yinglan.

In some cases, Mingchuan gave simple instructions to Yinglan through contact, and Yinglan understood these instructions and turned them into his own actions to carry out Mingchuan's orders. This situation is very common.

But in other cases, such as tonight, it was Yinglan who sent the message and Mingchuan who received it. This happens to other exorcists and demons, but there are significant differences in comparison.

One of the most obvious differences is in the amount of information that makes the demon send out a message.

None of the demons Kaguya Takayama had ever seen could send out such complex messages, and the messages they usually sent were simple, and after receiving these simple messages, the exorcist would process them through his understanding of the demons and the situation at the time, and then guess the true meaning of the demons.

Aside from Kageran, Takayama Kaguya had never seen a single demon that enabled the demon to send out complex and accurate messages in this way for his master to receive. Shadow Lan was the first and probably the only one he had ever seen.

Takayama Kaguya squinted his eyes slightly while following Akikawa's pace, staring at Akikawa's back.

When he first found Mingchuan, he just thought that this young exorcist could meet his requirements, and he should be able to help him fulfill his long-cherished wish under his advice. But now it seems that it is not so simple.

Not to mention the growth speed of Chuan himself, even his Demon Shadow Lan is a little different.

There is no doubt that the demon is a fourth-order monster. But after the fourth order, there is no further division. This is not to say that after reaching the stage of monsters, those ghosts will stop growing and will not evolve further, but because the exorcists who made this division have not seen too many monsters at all.

Ghosts that can become fourth-order are originally rare, and most of them will actively stay away from humans after they have evolved.

Ghosts need the energy of ghosts as food, and the ghosts on the bodies of living people are very rare, except for those who have lost their minds in the second stage, which will take the initiative to attack the living, the ghosts in other stages rarely have this behavior. For them, the ghost qi on the living is not enough to stuff their teeth, and attacking the living will cause some unnecessary trouble, and the third-order ghosts rarely do this kind of thing that does not outweigh the losses. For ghosts, it's better to devour other ghosts than to attack the living. Of course, devouring ghosts can also cause some trouble, so they rarely do so.

Takayama Kaguya had done a corresponding investigation and knew that for the third-order ghosts, the main source of food was actually those naturally formed rich ghost qi, and the degree of purity of the ghost qi that could be produced in some specific places was far comparable to the ghost qi carried by thousands of living people. It's just that such places are relatively rare, and they are facing considerable competition.

In addition, it is those second-order ghosts.

Because of the loss of reason, the danger of the second-order ghosts is extremely high, and it is also a scourge to stay in the world, there will not be too much competition, and devouring those ghosts will not attract the attention of the exorcists, which can reduce a lot of trouble. Although the energy of the ghost qi is not high, the amount of victory is quite sufficient, and there are no worries, which has become the staple food of the third-order powerful ghosts.

It is also because of this that the number of third-order powerful ghosts in this world is not rare, but there are very few that can really attract the attention of ghost exorcists and cause panic among human beings.

These are just the cases of powerful ghosts, and as for the monsters, they can't even look down on second-order powerful ghosts, let alone living humans.

After evolving to the fourth order, their need for food is almost none, and the ghost qi contained in those ghosts in the world is only a superficial surface to them, even if they swallow more, it will not have much effect on them.

However, the fourth-order monsters that Takayama Kaguya had seen had a strong appetite, and according to his own speculation, this appetite had nothing to do with ordinary hunger, and the reason why they desperately needed food was mostly because of their desire for strength and evolution.

Through the response of appetite, after evolving to the fourth order, those ghosts' desire to evolve will become stronger, in other words, after becoming the fourth order, the ghosts still have the possibility of continuing to evolve.

Whether there is a fifth order, whether there are ghosts who have reached the fifth order, or higher, this is unknown to the exorcists. On the one hand, no one had ever seen a fifth-order ghost, and on the other hand, Takayama Kaguya thought that even if someone had really seen a fifth-order monster, they might not be able to identify it.

One thing Takayama Kaguya is certain, that is, after the fourth order, those ghosts will continue to upgrade and evolve, and their strength will continue to increase, and it is very likely that after reaching the fourth order, the strength of the ghosts will increase much higher than the previous stages.

Kaguya Takayama couldn't tell if Shadow Lan was a monster after evolution, but he was sure that Shadow Lan's strength was by no means comparable to that of other demons.

Interestingly, where did Ming Chuan find Ying Lan, and why did such a strange person succumb to Ming Chuan's subordinates? This is also worth playing.

The more I get along with them, the more I feel that there is something strange about these two, and the more Takayama Kaguya is interested in the two of them. But at the same time, he also felt a strange worry in his heart.

He couldn't tell where this worry came from, but it was just a feeling of no reason, an indescribable premonition. Whenever he observed Ming Chuan from close quarters like this, this worry would spring up in his heart, and he wanted to warn him of something.

Should I stay away from Akegawa? Sometimes Takayama Kaguya can't help but think so. But at this stage, he simply can't find a more suitable candidate. For his own purposes, Takayama Kaguya was unwilling to leave easily and gave up Mingchuan, a rare candidate.

No matter what Mingchuan does, as long as he can accomplish his goal, everything else doesn't matter. Takayama Kaguya thought in his heart.

After thinking about it, they had returned to Sun Yanli's residence.

Just like when they left, the courtyard door of Sun Yanli's house was closed, there was silence inside, and all the lights in the house were extinguished, as if there had been a situation at all.

Ming Chuan's brows furrowed.

He walked to the door and pushed it gently, and the heavy wooden door creaked and cracked.

The door is not locked, did Sun Yanli forget to lock it when she left?

Ming Chuan's heart sank slightly, pushed open the door, and walked in.
