Chapter 170: On the eve of the Great War

Seven days later, the demon beast that had swept the world finally appeared outside Heyang City......

As the hinterland of the Central Plains, the geographical location of Heyang City is naturally needless to say, and it is backed by the behemoth of Qingyunmen.

However, even so, people fleeing can be seen everywhere in Heyang City.

A large number of refugees have made Heyang City extremely chaotic, the streets and alleys are crowded with people, the original inns and restaurants in the city have long been full of people, and more refugees who have fled have only stayed in the open air.

In this case, the food supply in Heyang City has become very tight......

Fortunately, because the city is by the river, there is no need to worry about the water source, otherwise I am afraid that the demon beast army has not yet attacked in a big way, and the city of Heyang will already be in chaos.

Suddenly......

In the crowd in the south of Heyang City, a panicked scream erupted, and the voice was extremely terrible.

Everyone was taken aback and looked in that direction.

I saw that the streets that were originally full of people were full of people, and the towering city walls in the distance were also full of people, but at this moment, they were all running desperately.

A terrible scream rang out in the sky, and a huge bird of prey spread its arms and swooped down from the sky with a pair of big eyes flashing with blood-red ferocity.

Those wings were spread out, and they were half as wide as a city gate, which was truly terrifying!

The huge wind was driven by the giant bird, and the wind struck, and the mast on the city wall was broken by the fierce wind and fell down.

The people at the head of the wall were terrified and ran in all directions, and the giant bird fell from the sky, with a scream, and its huge and sharp claws grabbed the two running people like a demon's hand, and then rose to the sky, and disappeared into the sky in a blink of an eye.

The entire Heyang City fell into a dead silence in an instant.

After a long time, I don't know who was the first to scream.

"Beast Demon ...... It's the beast demon here, we're finished! ”

In an instant, the entire city fell into hysteria...... Countless people wept loudly, wailed everywhere, and there was chaos!

Although I haven't seen the shadow of the beast demon army yet.

But that giant bird is obviously a sign of the coming army of beasts and demons!

The atmosphere of panic gradually spread in Heyang City, and many people had a look of despair on their faces, as if the end was coming......

…………

Qingyun, Tongtian Peak.

The righteous people led by Qingyunmen are gathering in the Yuqing Hall to discuss, and the sound of arguments is sounding from time to time.

And in the two highest positions, there are Dao Xuan Zhenren, the head of Qingyun Sect, and Yun Yilan, the lord of Incense Valley, respectively, and the two of them are also the two people who have the highest cultivation in the recognized righteous path in the world......

But right now, both of them are frowning, obviously worried about the beast demon catastrophe in front of them.

Suddenly......

There was a rush of footsteps in the Yuqing Palace.

I saw Xiao Yicai, the proud disciple of Dao Xuan Zhenren, change his calm appearance in the past, and walked quickly to the Yuqing Palace, only then did he pause slightly, nodded to all the righteous people around him, and then walked straight to Dao Xuan Zhenren's side and whispered a few words in his ear.

And in the main hall, everyone's eyes were also focused on the two of them.

Anyone with a discerning eye knows that Xiao Yicai must have brought some news about demon beasts when he came here......

An indescribable oppressive atmosphere spread throughout the hall.

Sure enough.

After a while, he saw Dao Xuan Zhenren nodding slightly, and he didn't wait for others to ask, so he took the initiative to speak: "Fellow Daoists, I just received the news that a large group of beast demons have appeared in the wilderness two hundred miles away from Qingyun Mountain, and they will come soon, and outside Heyang City under the mountain, they have also begun to find traces of beast demons sporadically......

As soon as this remark came out, it immediately caused a lot of commotion.

Although everyone has expected it in their hearts, the cruel truth is still a little difficult for many people to accept.

"Everyone!"

Seeing this, Dao Xuan Zhenren looked around, raised his hands weakly, and said in a deep voice: "Now that the enemy is present, the fate of the people in the world is all tied to us. Although we are cultivators and have a heavenly heart, we also have the world in mind, and we must do our best in today's battle...... The so-called endless road, this battle ...... We will win! ”

"What the real person said is very true, we will win!"

"Victory—"

With Dao Xuan Zhenren's words, everyone was also inspired, and their faces looked much better.

After all, on their side, there are two masters, Qingyunmen, Daoxuan Zhenren and Yun Yilan, as well as an invincible and invincible Zhuxian Sword Formation......

Then, Dao Xuan Zhenren came to the inner hall, and his face suddenly sank.

"Yicai, tell me the details."

"Yes."

Xiao Yicai nodded and spoke: "The disciple inspected Heyang City under the mountain, and in Heyang City, he witnessed the appearance of a huge bird demon, and his appearance was very similar to the Shura Bird, one of the thirteen demon beasts under the rumored beast demon......

After a pause, he continued.

"In addition, the senior brothers who are responsible for probing the surroundings reported that the demon beasts are the most dense two hundred miles to the southwest...... Even, there are already many brothers and sisters who have cut off the news during the investigation...... The disciples waited for a long time, but they didn't hear from them. ”

When Dao Xuan Zhenren heard this, he couldn't help but close his eyes.

After a while, he said lightly: "You go down the mountain again, inform the disciples everywhere to narrow the scope of exploration to within a hundred miles of Qingyun Mountain, and tell them to be careful." ”

"Yes."

Xiao Yicai nodded and paused, as if remembering something: "Master...... How should the people in Heyang City be resettled? ”

"The matter...... It's a bit tricky. ”

Dao Xuan Zhenren frowned, with his ability, he couldn't think of a good way to settle tens of thousands of people in Heyang City for a while, so he could only shake his head and say.

"You now go down the mountain to Heyang City, lead all the Qingyun disciples in Heyang City, and tell the people in Heyang City to go north as soon as possible, at least beyond the Qingyun Mountain Range...... The biggest target of those demon beasts is the righteous path on our Qingyun Mountain, not those people, so they may be able to ensure temporary safety. ”

Xiao Yicai was stunned for a moment, looked at Dao Xuanzhen's expressionless face, and finally nodded silently, and said in a low voice: "Yes, the disciple will go now." ”

"Go ahead...... Be careful all the way. ”

The north gate of Heyang City was opened, and hundreds of people walked out of the city.

And Xiao Yicai is also leading the disciples of Qingyunmen to be responsible for maintaining order, constantly comforting the anxious and panicked people, this is only a temporary departure, as long as the beast demon is defeated, everyone can return home safely......

Can you really defeat the beast demon?

Even Xiao Yicai himself is very bottomless.

He knew that now many people were pinning their hopes on the Zhuxian Sword Array, but who knew that the Zhuxian Ancient Sword had been lost ten years ago, but the news was covered up by the top management of Qingyunmen.

Otherwise...... In the face of the menacing beast demons, I don't know how many people still have the power to resist.
