Chenyang City, a city five hundred miles west of Daoguang City.

It is also a small city controlled by the Cheng family, with a population of less than 10 million.

But just the day before yesterday, the people of this city have disappeared one after another, and so far nearly three hundred people have disappeared for no reason, and the city lord's mansion sent people to find them to no avail, and later found several dried corpses in the wilderness of hundreds of miles outside the city.

Since the news spread that the Huangfu family and the Wang family joined forces to attack the Cheng family, the entire ancient martial arts world has been in the rumor, and there have never been murders that have occurred repeatedly, but this large-scale killing of ordinary people is the first time.

Soon some people speculated whether the Huangfu family and the Wang family would fight.

Although the Cheng family contracted their combat power in order to protect Daoguang City before, after the alliance between the Sima family and the Zhao family, not only did the original combat power return, but also increased nearly half of the combat power to guard, such a scale, it is already not losing the general main city power.

Although the combat power in the city has increased a lot, the City Lord's Mansion has no other way than to arrange more people to patrol the city.

At the same time, he instructed the people in the city not to leave the city recently.

No, as night fell, the murder still happened.

The City Lord's Mansion received the latest report that in an area of the East City, there was a family, all four of them died, and they became dried corpses, two of which were two large and two small, and the adults were the cultivation realm of the acquired martial artists.

Although it was a dried corpse, he still deduced that the time of the deceased's death was not long after, after night fell and the city gates were closed.

In this case, the murderer must still be in this city.

Of course, this is true for ordinary people, but unfortunately this murderer is not an ordinary person, or even a human being, so the result speaks for itself.

The whole city was turned upside down, and no suspicious person or suspicious clues were found.

It didn't take long for a case of extermination in Xicheng District, and when Cheng's family arrived, it was also not long after he died, which showed that the murderer had been in the city all the time, which made everyone panic.

In the midst of the Cheng family's array, after receiving a request for help from Chenyang City, the head of the Cheng family called a group of people to discuss together, including the Sima family and the Zhao family, of course.

They all felt that it was unlikely that it was the Huangfu family or the Wang family, after all, they were all five major families, and each of them had any exercises, and they also knew each other's roots, and they had never heard of such evil exercises.

But in this extraordinary period, there are a large number of deaths, but people have to think of them.

In the end, the result of their discussion was to send reinforcements, but when they were discussing who to send, Huang Chuyang happened to be out of the customs.

Today's fourth day, there is still one day before the Huangfu family attacked, Huang Chuyang originally planned to retreat for five days, but after yesterday's epiphany, he cultivated again and stabilized the realm.

Seeing that everyone in the council hall was gathered together, he thought that a fight had started in advance.

After understanding what happened, Huang Chuyang took the initiative to take over the reinforcement mission this time, he felt that there was something strange about this matter, and it might have something to do with him.

At a distance of five hundred miles, due to the safety of many people involved, Huang Chuyang's imperial sword flew rapidly and rushed to Chenyang City as soon as possible.

After examining the body of the deceased, as expected, all of them were drained of their blood and died.

Nine times out of ten, it is the reappearance of the demon spirit.

Huang Chuyang has encountered demon souls twice before, the first time is Xiao Zhenyu, and the second time is Changsun Ce, I don't know who it will be this time?

One night, Huang Chuyang ran around Chenyang City, arranging no less than a hundred surveillance sub-formations in the entire city, and arranging a monitoring mother formation in the city lord's mansion in the city, and at the same time asking Xiao Jin and his apprentice Murong Rong to come out to help.

According to the records of the City Lord's Mansion, so far, there has never been a murder during the day, so after dawn, Huang Chuyang Imperial Sword returned to Daoguang City.

Hongxiang Building is still that small courtyard.

Huang Chuyang and the red willow girl stood opposite each other, although they were still dressed in the same aqua blue clothes, but they were more energetic than before, because she had completely stood up.

Maybe he was in a very good mood today, and he was not very satisfied with Huang Chuyang's title of Red Willow Girl Long and Red Willow Girl Short, so he asked him to directly match his name in the future, just call him Red Willow, and she also called him Chu Yang directly, Huang Chuyang has no opinion on this.

Huang Chuyang said the dried corpse of Chenyang City again, and then compared it with the previous two demon soul incidents, Hongliu also felt that it should be the demon soul, but he didn't know what the demon soul wanted to do now?

Who exactly is its current bearer?

"Chu Yang, there is something I don't know if you know, that is, the two big stone sculptures at the gate of the Tianci Stone Workshop are missing, I remember you told me before, the stone carvings are a little unusual." Hongliu talked about this strange thing.

"It's gone, when is it?" Huang Chuyang was obviously very concerned about this matter, if he hadn't been in a hurry last time, maybe he would have investigated the stone carving.

"It was about a week ago in the middle of the night, I just heard the news, and I went to see it, but there was no clue except that there was some gravel left on the ground."

"There is another thing related to the Tianci Stone Workshop, it was also on the day that the stone carving disappeared, Xiao Zhenkun returned to Daoguang City, dressed in black, the strangest thing is that he didn't go home, but the inn where he lived, and disappeared again in the middle of the night, you say it's strange."

After Huang Chuyang heard this, "Xiao Zhenkun returned to the city and disappeared in the middle of the night, and at the same time, the stone carving disappeared in the middle of the night, do you mean that these two things are related?" ”

Hongliu nodded, "I think the disappearance of the stone carving should be Xiao Zhenkun's doing." ”

After speaking, he looked at Huang Chuyang.

After a while, Huang Chuyang seemed to react, "You mean that Xiao Zhenkun is very likely to be the new demon soul?" ”

Red Willow showed her habitual smile, perhaps tired of standing, sat down gently, and took a sip of tea.

Every time I come to Hongxiang Building, I can get Hongliu's analysis and tips, which is why Huang Chuyang likes to go there.

Unknowingly, Hongliu became Huang Chuyang's military advisor, and he didn't know about it.

Huang Chuyang said goodbye to Hongliu, left Hongxiang Building and rushed to Chenyang City.

Back at the City Lord's Mansion of Chenyang City, seeing that there was no situation, Huang Chuyang also joined the team to check the monitoring formation.

The current monitoring formation has improved a lot compared to the original level two, and Huang Chuyang not only raised the level to level four, but also allowed the formation to penetrate the sound.

Originally, he wanted to pass on the picture, but his strength was insufficient, and he estimated that if he wanted to achieve audio and video transmission, he would need at least a sixth-level formation or above.

Soon the day passed and night fell.

Several people cheered up and silently watched the formation in front of them, and the areas above represented the monitoring sub-formations arranged in the whole city.

At the beginning of the shift, there was a movement in the surveillance formation, and there were murders in Dongcheng District and Xicheng District at the same time.

Huang Chuyang flew to Dongcheng District, and when he arrived, he saw a tall black shadow, and it didn't look like Xiao Zhenkun.

Seeing it, he couldn't let it run, so Huang Chuyang quickly chased after it.

chased to a wilderness hundreds of miles outside the city, the black shadow disappeared, no matter how Huang Chuyang looked for it, he disappeared.

Helplessly, Murong Rong and Xiao Jin also came back, and they were the same, they found a tall black shadow, but they couldn't catch up.

In a cave outside the wilderness, I saw two tall black shadows kneeling down on one knee, reporting something to the man in black in front of me.

The man in black was Xiao Zhenkun, the object of the demon soul in Huang Chuyang's mouth.

And the two black clothes were naturally released from the stone carving, Moli Hum and Moliha.

This second general is the former right-hand man of the demon soul.

A cold voice sounded in this cave, "Huang Chuyang, you actually appeared again"

A voice without emotion makes it impossible to hear whether it is anger or joy.

Regarding Huang Chuyang's killing of Changsun Ce and chasing after Mo Liha, Xiao Zhenkun knew that he was able to share images through the secret art of the demon clan, which was equivalent to his own experience.

Daoguang City, Cheng's family array.

Huang Chuyang returned here, he told the matter of the demon soul, and the people who heard the news were even more shocked than the Huangfu family teaming up with the Wang family to deal with the Cheng family.

Especially the three Taishang, they knew very well that in the central region back then, in the epic battle of the ancient martial arts realm, all the human races in the central region at that time, at the cost of all people's lives, could be worthy of sealing the demon race, that is, the master of the demon soul.

If the Lord of the Demon Soul is allowed to appear in the world again, I am afraid that there is a danger of destroying the world, after all, the strength of the current ancient martial arts world is not as good as the ancient martial arts world at that time.

Sensing the seriousness of the situation, the three Taishang immediately reported it to the Realm Law Hall.

Soon, a representative of the elders walked out of the Jielu Hall.

The first thing this elder did when he came out was to contact the five major families to discuss the demon elimination countermeasures, as for the Huangfu family and the Wang family, they could only give up the plan to attack the Cheng family.

In this way, the battle between these five major families was temporarily silently disintegrated because of the appearance of demon souls.

Under the leadership of this elder, the demon hunting team was quickly formed.

Each family formed a five-person team dedicated to hunting demon souls, and all of them had to build a foundation for more than one period.

Except for the Cheng family, the other four major families are no problem, but the Cheng family has insufficient numbers to build a foundation, and Taishang and Huang Chuyang are barely enough.

In this way, all the foundations set out to encircle and suppress the demon soul, and the Cheng family was unmanned, and if there was a slight mistake, the entire Cheng family would be in danger.

In the end, Huang Chuyang proposed that Taishang should be in charge of the Cheng family, and he would solve the problem of one less foundation.

Of course, the best candidate for him is Red Willow, and the two of them worked together quite well during the last expedition to the ruins.

Soon after Huang Chuyang sent out the transmission, Hongliu came to the Cheng family array.

For the mysterious owner of Hongxiang Mansion, no one knows him, which saves a lot of trouble.

Huang Chuyang introduced him as a friend, but others understood that Hongliu was Huang Chuyang's confidante.

After all, no matter how you look at it, both of them are talented and beautiful, and they are quite a good match.

At the same time, he also sighed that Huang Chuyang, who had not long entered the ancient martial arts world, had a wide network of contacts and won friends like clouds.

As soon as the Cheng family had finished forming a team, they received a notice from the elders of the Jielu Hall.

The general content of the notice is that the demon hunting teams of the five major families rushed to the last place where the demon soul appeared as quickly as possible, that is, Chenyang City.

The 500-mile range around Chenyang City was included in the suspicious range, and then divided into five areas, which were guarded by the demon hunting teams of the five major families, and after they were unified in place, they contracted the encirclement from the outside in.

In this way, the demon soul has nowhere to hide, and he catches turtles in an urn.

I have to say that this elder is also a wise and decisive person, and he made a plan in a short time.

Huang Chuyang became interested in this elder who had not yet appeared, but he wanted to meet him.

Glimpse the leopard in the tube, it can be seen, if he can, he still wants to go to the Realm Law Hall to take a walk, maybe it is the cultivation holy land of the ancient martial arts realm.

The area divided by the Cheng family is the area from Daoguang City to Chenyang City, and when they reach the distance of three hundred miles from Chenyang City, they stopped, according to the elders of the Boundary Law Hall, this is a safe distance, and if they get closer, they may be startled.

After the demon hunting team of the five major families reached the designated area, they prepared to wait until night fell and began to shrink their defenses.

However, in a cave in the wilderness hundreds of miles away from Chenyang City, Xiao Zhenkun, who was a demon soul, was inexplicably irritable.
