Half a month later!

The capital, the hall of the historian!

At this time, the hall was full of high-level officials of the Shi family, and in the center of the hall stood two middle-aged men, who were the two people Ye Wushu let go. After the two of them left Shicheng, they immediately rushed back to the capital, hoping to tell the head of the family the news of Ye Wuxian's injury as soon as possible, and let the head of the house arrange countermeasures.

"Waste, five people can't beat a hairy boy, you still have the face to come back to see me?" In the main seat of the hall, there was a middle-aged man, this person was the head of the Shi family, and Shi Lie's father, Shi Hao! After listening to the two of them, Shi Hao was so angry that he shattered the table at hand.

"Master of the house, spare your life, spare your life······" Seeing Shi Hao's anger, the two immediately knelt down and begged for mercy.

"Head of the house, you calm your anger first, and wait for me to question the two of them carefully. As the middle-aged man sat down, an old man stood up and said. This old man was the oldest of the three old men in Fu Demon City that day, Shi Feng!

Shi Feng walked up to the kneeling two and asked, "You just said that the body martial arts used by Ye Wuxian are the ghost steps of the Liu family, aren't you?"

"Yes!" the two replied in unison.

"You also said that you heard Ye Wushu say with your own ears that the ghost step was taught to him by Liu Piaoran, didn't you?"

"Yes!"

"Are you sure?"

"Sure!"

Shi Feng's eyes narrowed suddenly, he waved his hand to the two of them, motioning for them to go down, and the two immediately got up and exited the hall. After the two left, Shi Feng turned around and said to Shi Hao: "Family master, there is something I have to tell you." ”

"Is it about the Liu family's ghost steps?"

"Hmm!"

Shi Feng nodded, "Lin Canghai of the Lin family once told me in Fu Demon City that Ye Wuxian would use ghost steps, but I didn't believe it at the time. However, hearing the two of them say this today, I believe it!"

Shi Hao's eyes immediately turned cold: "What does Elder Feng mean?"

"The head of the family, the young master's death is absolutely inseparable from Liu Piaoran! It may be that after Liu Piaoran injured the young master, he asked Ye Wuran to hurt his hand, and at this time, he happened to be seen by the young master's subordinates, so it was concluded that Ye Wuran killed the young master. Family master, think about it, Ye Wuxian is only the third stage of the Xuandan period, can he kill the young master? Moreover, some people saw that a few days before the young master's accident, Liu Piaoran and Ye Wuxian had been mixing together, not only that, but Liu Piaoran did not hesitate to offend Lin Canghai to save Ye Wuxian, which in itself was a very suspicious thing. ”

Shi Feng finished his speculation in one breath, and after that, he continued: "After Liu Piaoran came back from Fumo Mountain, he broke through to the ninth level of the Xuandan Stage, and this matter is also very suspicious. Maybe Liu Piaoran had already broken through to the ninth level of the Xuandan stage, and he had always shown the strength of the eightfold stage of the Xuandan stage, so that the young master could easily beat the young master to a serious injury, and then let Ye Wuxian make up for the final blow, creating the illusion that Ye Wuxian killed the young master!"

Shi Hao couldn't hold back the murderous aura in his heart at this time, his murderous aura was exposed, and he shouted: "Liu Piaoran, if you dare to design to kill my son, I will definitely pay for your Liu family's blood debt!"

Shi Hao's shouts echoed through the hall for a long time. Everyone looked at each other, and they all sighed in their hearts: "The capital is about to change!"

······

At this time, in a secret room of the Liu family. Liu Piaoran and a middle-aged man stood opposite each other.

"Ran'er, why are you so careless this time?" the middle-aged man smacked of reproach.

Liu Piaoran pursed his lips, "I didn't expect that those three old guys of the Shi family would be so useless, and they would not be able to kill Ye Wuxian!"

"Hey, now that the matter is out of order, according to the secret agent's report, Lin Canghai of the Lin family already knows about Ye Wuxian's ghost steps, and he also told Shi Feng! Shi Feng is an old and refined guy, he will definitely think of you. The middle-aged man said with a deep frown!

"Father, don't worry, the Shi family will not suddenly start a war against us. I have already killed the young man who identified Ye Wushu as killing Shi Lie, even if the Shi family knows that Ye Wushu can take ghost steps, they can't completely judge that it was I who taught him, there are so many children of the Liu family who can do ghost steps, let's just say one, even if they don't believe it, there is no way, and they have no evidence to prove that the ghost step is what I taught Ye Wushu, right?" Then, Liu Piaoran said indifferently: "Besides, his Shi family really wants to go to war, will we be afraid?"

The middle-aged man glanced at Liu Piaoran, he loved and hated this daughter. In the end, he shook his head helplessly, and said: "Okay, the Shi family comes to the door, we will not admit it, if there is a war, my Liu family will not be afraid of his Shi family!"

······

Longcheng is a city in the north of the Fengyu Kingdom, with a population of about 300 million. In this city, the forces do not exist in the form of families, but in the form of large and small teams of mercenaries. Because Longcheng is the closest city in the Fengyu Kingdom to the Heavenly Demon Plain, if the merchant families in the Heavenly Demon Plain want to safely transport their goods across the Heavenly Demon Prairie and enter the core area of the Heavenly Demon Plain, they must be protected. And the mercenaries are important members who protect these business families from passing through the Heavenly Demon Prairie safely, and there is no one.

Over the past few decades, the mercenary team in Longcheng has skyrocketed at a geometric rate, and there are hundreds of them so far.

In an inn in Longcheng, Ye Wuxian sat in the hall, and after ordering some food, he began to think about what he should do.

There is no doubt about entering the Heavenly Demon Plain, and staying in the Abundance Country is waiting for death. Moreover, the people in the Heavenly Demon Plain are sinister, and the strong are like forests, which is a good place to quickly improve their strength. Of course, this also comes with the danger of losing one's life at any time. However, in order to avenge the Ye family and everyone in Shicheng as quickly as possible, this kind of risk is worth taking.

However, after today's investigation, it is not easy to successfully cross the Heavenly Demon Prairie. In the Heavenly Demon Prairie, there are not only robbers who kill people and oversell goods, but it is said that if you are lucky, you may even encounter a beast tide that is rare in ten years.

The beast tide can also be said to be a natural disaster.

There are all kinds of demon beasts living in the Heavenly Demon Prairie, the most of which are the Star Moon Demon Wolf and the Wild Bull! Most of the Star Moon Demon Wolves are third-order demon beasts, and only a few are fourth-order demon beasts, it is said that the Star Moon Demon Wolf King is a fifth-order demon beast, as for whether it is true or not, it is unknown. As for the brute bull, it is much weaker, almost all of them are second-order, and there is basically no third-order. However, the destructive power of the wild bull is much greater than that of the star and moon demon wolf, and the biggest feature of the wild cow is that it has great strength, so every time the beast tide, the place where the wild bull walks is almost a mess. Even if it's a mountain bag, it will be razed to the ground by wild bulls!

However, it is usually rare to see a tide of beasts.

Therefore, Ye Wuxian was not worried about encountering the beast tide, what made Ye Wuxian worry was those robbers who killed people and oversold goods.

In order to make a fortune, some warriors formed groups in the Heavenly Demon Prairie, specializing in hunting down lone warriors or weak teams that crossed the Heavenly Demon Prairie, and these people were called robbers.

What Ye Wuxian is really afraid of is these people, he is now cultivating to only the seventh level of the Xuandan stage, it is said that anyone who can mix in the Heavenly Demon Prairie will not be lower than the fourth level of the Xuandan stage, so this makes Ye Wuxian very distressed, should he go through the Heavenly Demon Prairie alone?

In the end, Ye Wuxian decided to follow the crowd, join a mercenary group, and then follow the mercenary group to take a mission through the Heavenly Demon Prairie, so that there are more people and there is a good response.

In fact, this method is also a method adopted by many individual martial artists who want to pass through the Heavenly Demon Prairie. There are more people, after all, those robbers don't dare to pay attention. Of course, there are also a small number of people who choose to go alone, but all of these people are not the ninth level of the Xuandan stage, or the peak of the ninth level of the Xuandan stage, or the powerhouse of the Didan stage that Ye Wuxian can't even think of!
