Chapter 396: The Root of the Trouble
The ten half-demons were as stunned as if they had heard something very shocking, just because their crimes had not yet reached the height of that unforgivable crime, and it was impossible to surpass the bandit who occupied the mountain as the king.
"Ahh
There was a pleading and unbearable pain in their eyes, but unfortunately, no one paid attention to their feelings, but accelerated the speed of their death, and the bones broke with a sound of shattering, and in the end, they were like lumps of flesh that they could no longer tell that this was a person.
Li Chen looked at the cruel treatment of those ten half-demons, he didn't have the slightest pity, just because the crime committed by the other party was to betray the thousands of living beings in the entire Warrior Continent, and everyone would be punished, not to mention, without a thousand cuts, it would be regarded as letting them go to hell as soon as possible to report, otherwise the pain they would suffer would be thousands of times worse than just now.
"Tang Fu, judging from the current situation, the Warrior Continent is about to be in turmoil, and it is difficult for any country of any size to stay out of it, I believe that everyone will be exhausted, and you should also step up to clear the half-demons who disturb the fiefdom!"
Tang Fu nodded, but he didn't say any more nonsense, it didn't make any sense, just because the information he had just heard showed that the demon clan had wantonly converted humans into their own chess pieces and inserted them into the hinterland of humans, thus reaching the point of chickens flying and dogs jumping.
Immediately, their group also scattered in all directions, different in the same direction, so that they could search for half-demons on a large scale, and they could eliminate hidden dangers as soon as possible.
"Teacher, why do you call them half-demons?" After Li Chen waited for Tang Fu and the others to leave, he always had a big question in his heart, and couldn't help but ask.
"Didn't you see that they couldn't demonize and improve their combat power when you fought them?" Ying Yuan asked rhetorically.
"You mean that they can't use demonization, they can only be counted as half a demon?" As soon as Li Chen heard this, he thought that he was no different from dealing with those five opponents of the same rank as he was dealing with ordinary people, which made him very puzzled, and now he was getting clearer and clearer, but he still didn't dare to be sure.
He didn't know much about the demon clan, and many things were beyond his reach, and there happened to be an existence in front of him who unveiled the mystery for him.
"The demon clan can't directly absorb the aura of heaven and earth in the Warrior Continent for their own use, every time they fight, it will take far longer than us to recover the demon yuan power they used, and the demon species is the product of the consumption of demon yuan power, the demon clan is reluctant to convert the demon yuan power that has been refined with great difficulty into demon species and graft it into human bodies, just a formation to transform demon qi in human bodies, so that human beings can seize the vitality of other human beings!" Ying Yuan explained.
"Isn't that demon clan a threat to the Warrior Continent all the time?" Hearing this, Li Chen's face changed, his heart beat fiercely, and he asked with a panic that could not be suppressed.
No wonder he is so flustered, the demon clan can easily mobilize a large number of humans to carry out the sabotage plan, and the creatures of the Warrior Continent will face endless harassment!
"This kind of conversion method is only unique to the wolf demon family, other demon clans want to recruit humans for their own dispatch, they must use their own demon yuan power to plant demon seeds, and wolf demons are not omnipotent, they set up formations that also consume demon yuan power, but it is many times easier than directly planting demon seeds!" Ying Yuan said.
Li Chen almost didn't scold when he heard this, Ying Yuan was too good at hiding and pinching, but after thinking about it, he would understand the reason, if all the remnants of the demon clan had the ability to transform the demon yuan power in this way, would there still be a possibility for them to roam freely in the Warrior Continent today?
At that time, they have become slaves of the demon clan, not to mention the possibility of turning over.
Moreover, this group of half-demons chose to embark on this path of traitors because of their own oppression, maybe they didn't know that the external force they got was the demon yuan force hated by the world, although it was not a pity for them to die, but after all, they were at the mercy of the demon clan, and the warrior continent's understanding of the demon clan was already very vague, and ordinary people didn't know that the demon clan was the mortal enemy of our warrior continent!
"Teacher, I suspect that there may be a demon clan in the Great Zhou Empire!" Thinking of this, he immediately remembered that he was forced to enter the Dark Empire back then, and said.
"Are you so sure because they were in the Great Zhou Empire and were persecuted by Jiang Yan back then?" asked Ying Yuan.
He knew a little about Li Chen's past, and he also knew that Li Chen was hunted down by Jiang Yan, and in the end, Li Chen survived the difficulties safe and sound, which was also what he was most curious about, but he didn't want to get to the bottom of it.
"Well, although I killed Jiang Yan's two subordinates, it is not enough to send a seventh-order cultivator to hunt down and kill me, a great knight who is only a fourth-order and ninth-order, and according to the information provided by Fang Da, the Jiang family cannot penetrate at all, so it can be inferred that he values not my cultivation, but my physique, so it makes sense!" Li Chen nodded.
"In fact, it's not just that you suspect that the Great Zhou Empire and the remnants of the demon clan are in cahoots, the Great Qin Empire is one of the representatives, at that time, before the Great Zhou Dynasty replaced the original empire, that empire encountered a situation like what happened here today, and the Great Qin Empire, as a neighboring country, was also affected and could not stay out of it!"
"Unfortunately, at that time, Da Zhou suddenly expanded its territory and invaded the empire of the demon who was destroying everywhere within the empire, so that the empire suffered from the enemy, and in the end, let Da Zhou replace it, it can be said that it is also strange, since Da Zhou gained a firm foothold, the demon clan actually disappeared quickly, as if this had never happened!"
"At that time, countries sent a large number of strong people into the Great Zhou, wanting to find out, but unfortunately, they couldn't find out the evidence of the collusion between the Great Zhou and the Demon Clan, so they had to go away, but the Great Qin Empire has always believed that the Great Zhou Empire and the Demon Clan are in cahoots, and they will go against the Great Zhou Empire no matter what the occasion!"
"Finally, the sealing enchantment is an obstacle to blocking the two planes, it is related to the life and death of the warrior continent, and it has always been the first place for the demon clan to attack, and it happens to be between the Great Zhou Empire and the Dark Empire, the demon clan will definitely not have anything to do with the demon race, because the demon race is a race that has continued from ancient times to the present, and they know the consequences of the loss of the sealing enchantment, so it is difficult to start from the demon side!"
"The Great Zhou Empire has become the only indispensable channel, no matter whether the Great Zhou Empire is in cahoots with the demon clan or not, it will receive too much attention from various countries, so that the Great Zhou Empire is heavily defended and does not allow any forces to infiltrate it!" Ying Yuan said softly.
Hearing this, Li Chen nodded, and he heard that most of the Jiang family's strict precautions came from the excessive attention of various countries, prompting him to come to a crossroads now, and it seemed that his previous suspicions had become blurred.
However, he still didn't believe that Jiang Yan would pay a seventh-order cultivation minion for one or two dispensable subordinates, who was willing to obey the dispatch, and he didn't know how many times stronger than his subordinates who were temporarily attached to him.
"Okay, you should also return to the academy with them, without the permission of the teacher, you must not take half a step out of Luoyang City!" At this time, Tang Heng and the others had already come to the edge of the huge pit thousands of meters in size, staring at Ying Yuan and Li Chen, prompting Ying Yuan to drop a sentence, and then directly took a step, so that the front of him turned into a humanoid black hole, and swallowed it up, and in an instant, it had disappeared in front of everyone.
"Alas, the teacher is really, he has to show off his cultivation!" Li Chen also came back from his contemplation, and after seeing the amazed eyes of Zhou Bo and the others, he shook his head secretly, and then, he also summoned the angel wings, spread his wings and flew over the huge pit that separated them in front of him, and as soon as he landed in front of Tang Heng and the others, an apologetic voice came from his ears: "Brother Li Chen, blame me for being reckless, almost letting you..."
"Okay, you just want to save face for yourself, it's nothing, and the matter is already in the past, there is no need to move out again!" Before the other party could finish speaking, he immediately waved his hand.
Tang Heng naturally didn't mention it, but he couldn't hide the look of apology on his face, if it wasn't for Ying Yuan's arrival just now, Li Chen would no longer exist, and it was the result of his own hands.
"Because I have to return to the academy immediately, I can't go to Tang Wangcheng with you!" Li Chen ignored Tang Heng's expression and said seriously.
"Then let's not go either, let's return to the academy together!" As soon as everyone heard this, they immediately understood that the danger Li Chen faced was thousands of times higher than theirs, and it was impossible for them to enjoy themselves alone, so let Li Chen return to the academy to cultivate alone, even Tang Heng had no intention of keeping everyone, and immediately, they said in unison.
It was only two days before they entered the Tang family's fiefdom, and they had already set off to return to the academy, which was very different from the relaxed calculation at the beginning.
And their way back to the academy was not all smooth sailing, one level after another kept appearing in front of their eyes, and the pair of vigilant eyes locked on them, as if they were demons destroying everywhere, which made them quite helpless, but fortunately, Tang Heng showed his identity and was able to pass these levels.
"It's not just that the Tang family's fiefdom is so tightly inspected, but even there are demons near Luoyang City, it seems that there are quite a few demons that have suddenly appeared, and they have affected the entire empire!" Tang Heng also frowned at the heavy soldiers who set up cards to intercept them every other way, and said.
"Now we think that we are just asking for trouble, it is better to improve our cultivation as soon as possible, at that time, it is the time for us to show our talents!" Li Chen thought that his strength was insufficient, even if he wanted to help, it would only be a disadvantage, prompting him to say in a deep voice.
Tang Heng and the others nodded immediately, their eyes were full of crazy cultivation thoughts, especially Zhou Bo and others who were only fifth-order cultivators, they were even more eager to catch up with Li Chen and the others, otherwise they would not only not be able to help at all, but would become a burden to Li Chen and the others.
