When the team of the Yatu Wasteland turned back and brought back the news, the reaction of all the demon saint commanders was surprisingly angry, and the reason why no one came back was well known, except for the annihilation of the entire army, there was no other possibility.

Even the smile of the old man in the Taoist robe was a little cold, there were only two things he was afraid of, the first was betrayal, the second was provocation, Su Weiping led people to abandon the city, the identity of the traitor was undoubtedly confirmed, and now the people sent to chase and kill were all wiped out, and it was a naked provocation to him!

When the old man in the Dao robe first learned the news, he even had the idea of chasing and killing with his own hands, but at that time, the flame spar was refining the eighth pattern, and it had reached the most critical breakthrough point, so he didn't care about other things.

Therefore, when the old man in the Taoist robe was in the council, he asked the second commander, Shangguan Yan, to personally lead the team back to the Yatu Wasteland, clean up the ill-intentioned people in the city, and bring back the head of Su Weiping who escaped by the way.

Su Weiping was originally Shangguan Yan's subordinate general, and the subordinate general should be guilty of defection as the commander, but afterwards, the old man in the Taoist robe did not make an actual punishment, and the task of this trip was not only to give her the opportunity to make meritorious contributions, but also to test her attitude.

If Shangguan Yan can successfully retrieve the traitor's head, the matter will be stopped, and if it is an "accident" miss, the consequences can be imagined.

Shangguan Yan behaved very positively, and in the early morning of the second day after receiving the order, he took five heartfelt peak demon king captains and a strong team composed of hundreds of demon kings to set out to quell the chaos in the Yatu Wasteland and hunt down the traitor Su Weiping.

Half a month after Shangguan Yan left, a peak demon king who followed her quickly returned and secretly met the old man in the Taoist robe, he was originally a confidant of Shangguan Yan, but at some point, he became the eyes and ears of Venerable Mei's surveillance.

Rejecting what the peak demon king said, after Shangguan Yan returned to the nameless town, those ambitious and disobedient demon kings were all dealt with bloodily, which strongly calmed down the atmosphere of riots in the city and re-established the original order.

The various follow-up affairs of the nameless town were handed over to the five captains, all according to the orders of the old man in the Taoist robe, Shangguan Yan did not interfere much, and one of the cronies of the captain only vaguely advised her to make plans early, and she was killed on the spot on the charge of disturbing the army's heart.

Without making any secret arrangements, Shangguan Yan only stayed in the city for three days, leaving the two peak demon kings to sit in the city, and he took the two captains and led the team of twenty demon kings to set off again to hunt down Su Weiping.

Maybe it's because he is often cheated and deceived, the old man in the Taoist robe is extremely cautious and suspicious, and he has a strong sense of vigilance against the people around him, except for the Red Tiger, who has been cultivated as a righteous son since he was a child, the five demon saint commanders of the City Lord's Mansion, including Liu Yi, who followed him in his early years, he has never really believed it.

The captain who commanded the peak of the ten demon kings under him, more than half of them were the eyes and ears he personally planted, and he was loyal to his respective commanders on weekdays, but secretly reported his daily itinerary, affairs, and actions to the old man in the robe, and he was clear about the character, hobbies and shortcomings of each commander.

Of the five captains of Shangguan Yan's entourage, three of them were his eyes and ears, one was responsible for reporting the specific situation to him, and the other was always following

Around Shangguan Yan, one waited for an opportunity to incite her to rebel and test her loyalty to herself.

Hearing that the ears and eyes he had sent to the temptation had been killed, the old man in the Taoist robe not only did not feel the slightest displeasure, but showed a lot of heartfelt smiles, the more he hated the betrayer who disobeyed him, the more he liked the slave who was loyal to him.

The tougher Shangguan Yan's methods are, the more loyal she is to the old man in the Taoist robe, as for whether it will be that she discovered her plan and deliberately made a look for herself, Venerable Mei did not think about this problem.

He has confidence in the people he has sent, and he has more confidence in his own means, and the loyal eyes and ears that have been damaged are nothing in his eyes, as long as they have the value of use, it is a big deal to cultivate them again, and he is never too troublesome.

Rewarded the ears and eyes with a lot of property, and let him continue to go back to the nameless town to stay, keep in touch with the captain who followed Shangguan Yan, always pay attention to the movement of the team and the progress of the task, and seeing that the traitor's matter was about to be resolved, Venerable Mei smiled a little more.

However, waiting left and right, another twenty days passed in the blink of an eye, but he never received any more news, and the head of the traitor who should have appeared was also delayed, and he waited patiently for five days, but did not see the team that returned triumphantly, and the one who came back was still the captain who stayed in the city.

The captain was so anxious that he forgot to hide his figure, and without meeting the people he was connected to, he was discovered by the patrol team and brought straight to the commanders, so that he had to make the situation public.

Venerable Mei's face was as usual, which made people shudder, the captain knew that he was reckless and committed the taboo of the old man in the Taoist robe, and his brain was quite flexible, and he didn't tell everything about everything, but just said that Shangguan Yan led the team to hunt down the traitor.

Ten days before the march, the team and the city were still communicating, starting from half a month ago, but suddenly unilaterally cut off contact, and did not receive any news, he originally thought that there was an accident delaying the time of communication.

Who knew that the captain had waited for half a month, but he didn't hear any movement from there, and the people sent out to search found nothing, so he reacted that there might be something wrong with the team, so he hurried to the cottage to inform him of the incident.

A high-level demon saint, two peak demon kings, twenty demon king powerhouses, such a powerful lineup, unexpectedly disappeared in the Gobi silently, if it wasn't trapped by the dangerous region, it must have been attacked by an incomparable force.

After living there for hundreds or thousands of years, several commanders have a good understanding of the Yatu Wasteland, not to mention knowing the roots well, and they can also be sure that there is no legendary natural danger area, and the rest may be that Shangguan Yan and others have been attacked by terrorists.

The power that can easily swallow the team, within the range of the Yatu Wasteland, either a few beast saints join forces, or the beast is close to each other, or both, no one knows.

Because of the lack of evidence, the commanders' imagination of this matter was limited, and they could not speculate on the specific situation, or shook their heads or frowned, and even the old man in the Taoist robe was silent and did not make any statement.

Liu Yi's eyes moved slightly, as if he was thinking, he hugged his fist to the old man in the Taoist robe, and said in a shocking voice: "My subordinates are willing to share the worries of His Holiness and lead the team to investigate the enemy's situation, if possible, I will bring back the Shangguan Commander completely!"

The other commanders had different eyes

, They are aware of the contradiction between Liu Yi and Shangguan Yan, in the current situation where the enemy and the enemy are unknown, he is willing to take the risk to go, with naturally not good intentions, but afraid that Shangguan Yan can only be dead whether he is dead or alive, and he is just going to confirm.

However, several commanders did not speak rashly, and turned their eyes to Venerable Mei on the main throne, only to see Venerable Mei shook his head and said: "This matter is quite strange, the enemy's situation is unknown, the whereabouts of the Shangguan Commander are unknown, no one can act without authorization, violators will be investigated!"

None of the demon saints present expected that the old man in the Taoist robe would make such a decision to avoid fighting without fighting, which was obviously not his usual style, but none of the several commanders objected, looking at his posture, if someone dared to disobey the order, the result was destined to be very cake.

This trip is indeed helpless, and the old man in the robe doesn't want to do this, if this matter is placed in normal times, the disappearance of the dignified demon saint for no reason will definitely arouse his attention and caution, even if he does not personally deal with it, he will send several demon saints to investigate.

However, unlike in the past, there was always a priority, and he had to get to the most important things first. The refining of the first eight stripes of that flame spar was very smooth, and it only took a few months for it to turn into eight dark red light marks.

The only one left, I don't know why, it is extremely difficult to refine, when refining the first few lines, you can see the process of refining, and in the last one, the old man in the Taoist robe went to the crater to conceive three times, but he did not see the obvious degree of refining.

The old man in the Dao robe had read many ancient books before he made a conjecture close to the truth, it may be that the energy purity of the magma river is not enough to support the evolution of the spar at a higher level.

But within the surrounding range of thousands of miles, the volcanic valley is already the region with the strongest fire attribute. In order to find this treasure land, the old man in the Taoist robe spent a lot of effort, and it was difficult to find a better place!

Just when the old man in the Dao robe was upset, it was a coincidence that news suddenly came from the sand city on the largest oasis in the desert under his feet that a certain third-rate race in the local area had accidentally obtained a small amount of lava spirit essence when mining his own ore vein.

Lava Spirit Essence is a prestigious holy treasure, and only the deepest part of the underground lava, tempered by endless fire poison and nourished by pure vitality, has a chance to form a finger-sized piece after thousands of years of gestation.

The lava spirit essence is an extremely rare supplement for the cultivators of the fire attribute, which helps to break through the realm of the mind and cultivate the secret technique of the magic technique, and after taking it, there is a small possibility that the fire spirit root will be formed in the body and the fire spirit body will be nurtured into itself!

It's a pity that the lava spirit essence is indeed unimaginably poisonous to cultivators of other attributes, even if it is a demon saint existence, as long as it is contaminated with a slight, the whole person will melt away, some people rush to it, and some people will avoid snakes and scorpions.

The climate of the desert land under your feet is hot, and there are not a few demon clans who cultivate fire attributes, and the value of the lava spirit essence here is much higher than that of other places.

The patriarch of the third-rate race had a good mind, and he did not wait for the price as people thought, but held an auction in Sand City, not only to sell the lava spirit essence for a good price, but also to take the opportunity to sell a few specialties of the clan.
