"What!?"

The Lord of the Ning Mansion raised his eyebrows, and suddenly became interested.

In the past six months or so, Hemu Town has not been very peaceful, and there have been traces of demon clans almost everywhere.

However, they could only defend passively, and they didn't know the true intentions of the demon clan at all.

Now, Huo Xiu provided another piece of news about the infestation of the demon clan, which made the Ning Mansion Lord instantly sharpened.

Seeing this, Huo Xiu didn't dare to delay, and immediately told him about his first encounter with the dark demon.

After listening to this, a trace of regret appeared on the face of the Ning Mansion Lord.

"Huo Xiu, what you said, Hall Master Qin has already mentioned in the report. And not only that, he also explained that the other party is not the only one, there is also a vulture demon clan, who has been around the dark demon. ”

"Is that so?"

When Huo Xiu heard this, he immediately felt a little puzzled.

After all, he didn't stay at the Jade Dragon Pass the whole time, and he didn't know about the fact that Hall Master Qin had broken through. Therefore, he didn't know that the Qin Hall Master had also encountered the Dark Demon.

However, Huo Xiu suddenly remembered the second encounter with the Dark Demon, so he hurriedly said, "By the way, Lord Ning, there is one more thing I forgot to mention. That is what the Dark Demon once said that his master, who is also the Soul Eater Demon Venerable himself, may make some big moves in Kawamu Town in the near future, and even threaten the safety of the entire Kawaki Town!"

"Is there such a thing!?"

The Ning Mansion Lord raised his eyes suddenly, and seemed to be very interested in Huo Xiu's words.

The next moment, he stroked his beard and said slowly: "Huo Xiu, what you said does make some sense. In fact, in the past few days, there have been frequent cases of demon clans in various parts of Hemu Town, and almost all of our manpower has been dispatched. Just yesterday, Hall Master Fu also followed the large army of Hemu Town and rushed to the Jade Dragon Pass, preparing to capture it back. ”

After Huo Xiu listened, he suddenly understood a little, no wonder he felt that the atmosphere was very tense as soon as he entered Hemu Town, it turned out that the demon clan was making trouble everywhere.

It's just that they are neither early nor late, but they are at this point in time, which is indeed quite suspicious.

"Did they do it on purpose?"

Suddenly, Huo Xiu's eyes lit up, as if he had thought of something.

The next moment, he raised his head abruptly and said loudly: "Lord Ning, is this the demon clan's plan to divert the tiger from the mountain. Will they take advantage of the evacuation of our personnel to disadvantage Hemu Town!"

"Huo Xiu, what do you mean by this!?" The Ning Mansion Lord was still a little puzzled, so he immediately asked.

Seeing this, Huo Xiu hurriedly said, "Hall Master Qin, you also know that this Soul Devouring Demon Venerable has most likely broken through the restrictions of the invisible barrier, thus bypassing the blockade of Hemu Town and directly coming over from the 100,000 Great Mountain. If they can succeed once, they are likely to do it a second time. And now, it's the second time in time!"

The Qin Hall Master was shocked, and immediately responded: "Indeed, those demon clan thieves are immortal, and they want to attack all the time. And now they suddenly broke out, apparently covering for their companions who had crossed the border. Then, the invisible barrier gap that we have not been able to find before is likely to be found out this time. ”

As he spoke, Hall Master Qin stretched out his arm and immediately took out a long scroll from his side.

Immediately, with a flick of his wrist, the scroll was opened and laid out on the table, revealing the situation inside.

Huo Xiu immediately leaned over and found that this was actually a map of the area under the jurisdiction of Hemu Town.

On it, there are many places marked with red letters, and it is obvious that the demon clan is wreaking havoc there.

At this time, Hall Master Qin held a pen in one hand and drew on the map as he spoke.

"Well, the markings on this map are a little outdated, and some of them aren't showing up. For example, Heifeng Ridge, a few days ago, it was revealed that there were demon clans, and Qinglong Gorge, and there seemed to be demon clans making trouble, but they were beaten away as soon as they appeared......"

In this way, the Lord of Ning Mansion said and did at the same time, and after a while, the entire map was full of red letters.

Finally, when the Lord of the Ning Mansion made the last mark, he threw the brush aside, and let out a long breath in his mouth.

"There is no place where the demon clan haunts, only here. ”

When Huo Xiu heard this, he immediately fixed his eyes. Immediately after, his mouth opened slightly, and he involuntarily cried out.

"It's the Valley of Shadows! Isn't this the first time we've discovered the possible existence of the Soul Eater?"

The Ning Mansion Lord nodded and responded: "That's right, at that time, we did gather a lot of people and horses to explore the hall, and we almost turned the Shadow Valley upside down, but we didn't find anything unusual, and even the invisible barrier there was intact. Now that I think about it, the gap in the invisible barrier is not maintained all the time, but only appears on a regular basis. And now, that's the point in time!"

"Then what are you waiting for? Why don't you send someone to investigate?" Huo Xiu immediately jumped up and said eagerly.

At this time, the Lord of Ning Mansion had a bitter face, and said helplessly: "Our manpower has been scattered, and we can't gather too many people now." ”

Huo Xiu didn't think about it, and said directly: "Although my realm is not high, I am also willing to go to the soup and fight the fire, and I will not give up." ”

"This ......"

Hall Master Qin glanced at Huo Xiu blankly, but finally shook his head.

"No, even if you participate, we won't be able to assemble a team or two. Anyway, I'll immediately report this matter to the headquarters of Kawaki Town, and they will arrange for people to rush to the Shadow Valley immediately!"

"What about me, I can't stay here, can I?" Huo Xiu said with some unwillingness when he heard this.

The Ning Mansion Lord smiled bitterly and said, "Huo Xiu, you have just returned from the defeat of the Jade Dragon Pass, so you can rest in Hemu Town for a few days for the time being." Besides, I also have a vague feeling that our Hemu Town is not peaceful. It may not be long before something big happens. At that time, you can play a bigger role if you stay here. ”

Huo Xiu saw that the Lord of Ning Mansion was very resolute, so he had no choice but to give up.

And at this time, in the depths of the Shadow Valley hundreds of miles away, just as Huo Xiu and the others expected, the Soul Devouring Demon Venerable had already returned with a few of his subordinates.

Now, they are standing on one side of a stream, looking out to the other.

And the scenery there was almost exactly the same as the scene from where they were. There were even a few guys who looked very similar to them, looking across the stream.

Actually, these were originally the same, because what the Soul Eater Demon Venerable saw was nothing more than a reflection. And the root of all this lies in the invisible barrier in the middle of the stream.
