Chapter 138: Yongzhou
"In more than an hour, we will reach the boundary of Yongzhou, and we can also find a place to rest."
In the void, three figures walked with swords, shuttling above the clouds.
One of them looked at the map in his hand and immediately spoke.
There was a powerful mana surging around him, breaking the oncoming wind without affecting his speed.
And this person is the true disciple of Shushan, Xu Changyu.
The other two are naturally Song Zhishu and Chen Jingyun.
After more than half a month of traveling, the three of them were finally about to arrive at their destination, and they did not stop in the process, after all, they were going to deal with the demon incident this time, and the later they delayed, the more likely there would be a big problem.
"Actually, if it weren't for me, Mr. Song and Xu Daoyou would have arrived a long time ago."
At this time, Chen Jingyun spoke, with a little shame in his eyes.
Among the three, he has the lowest cultivation, so Edgeworth's speed is not fast, so he needs to take care of himself in the process.
"What Mr. Chen said, we left Qingzhou together, and now we should take care of each other." Xu Changyu smiled, he didn't pay attention to this, he was not the kind of person who looked down on others because he relied on his own strength.
On the contrary, along the way, Xu Changyu took good care of Chen Jingyun and was very dedicated in all aspects.
Sometimes, they even point out each other's practice.
In fact, most of the disciples of Shushan have such a character, otherwise many years ago, there would not be a faint saying of the first sect in the world.
In addition to their own strength, the most important point is that the disciples below have been respected and affirmed by many monks when they are walking the world, and this is also one of the foundations of the strength of the Shushan Sword Sect.
However, it is precisely because of this that the disciples of Shushan are also the least among the major sects.
But sometimes the number of disciples does not mean that the sect is strong.
And the reason why Song Zhishu is good friends with the other party is also because he takes a fancy to Xu Changyu's character, although he is not a scholar, he has the character of a scholar.
"Keep going." Song Zhishu didn't think much about it, and immediately said, since they are almost there, they can't delay any longer.
Let's take a look at the situation in Yongzhou at this time, and we can roughly judge how serious the demon incident is.
"Okay."
The two next to him nodded and stopped talking.
Immediately, the three of them sped up and hurried towards their destination.
After more than an hour passed, the three of them finally saw that on the distant horizon, there was an ancient city, the city was very large, like a giant beast crawling between the heavens and the earth, even if it was extremely far away, but it could still be seen.
And that is the main city of Yongzhou!
It's just that they didn't approach the city immediately after seeing it.
Because no matter what the three of them can clearly feel, there is an inexplicable atmosphere in the main city of Yongzhou.
Especially in the sky above the city, there are also clouds of black mist lingering, constantly descending, which is the power of demons.
"The power of demons has enveloped the entire Yongzhou, is the situation so serious?" Xu Changyu had a look of surprise in his eyes, and he didn't understand it a little, which was obviously not the same as the news he had gotten.
"This seems to have surpassed the crisis in Qingzhou at the beginning."
Chen Jingyun was also a little shocked, and couldn't help but continue: "Didn't you say that the prince of the Great Wednesday had already made a move, how could it still be like this?" ”
Judging from the power of the demon, the situation can be described as very serious, which made him begin to tremble, feeling that this matter is beyond the reach of ordinary people, and he must inform those powerful sect forces, and then let the sects unite to deal with it.
Even Chen Jingyun doubted that there were earth demons in Yongzhou City.
"Let's go see what's going on."
Song Zhishu pondered for a moment, and then spoke.
There was no point in standing here, only to learn more, although he wondered why this was so.
Soon, the three of them quickly approached Yongzhou, and the closer they were, the more obvious that demonic aura became.
But Song Zhishu found that although this demonic aura was very strong, it was not huge, and it did not bring great pressure to himself like the original earth demon, which was not because his strength was increased now.
"The main city of Yongzhou is now blocked, please stop!"
But just when the three of them were about to reach Yongzhou City, dozens of figures suddenly walked out.
These people's cultivation is the lowest, and they are all in the foundation building realm, and the strongest have already reached the Jiedan realm.
The clothes they wore were very ordinary, but there was a powerful evil aura surging on their bodies, which was cultivated by years of killing, and more importantly, all of them had uniform movements and sharp eyes, obviously not ordinary monks, they must have been trained for a long time.
"Who gave the lockdown order?" Seeing this, Xu Changyu frowned, but he didn't get angry, but spoke softly.
"It's none of your business."
The person at the head could naturally see that the three of them were not ordinary, but they didn't put it in their eyes, and said directly: "There are demons in this place, the main city has been sealed, you better go elsewhere, otherwise something goes wrong, don't complain when the time comes." ”
His meaning is very simple, the main city of Yongzhou is sealed, and it is not allowed to enter at all.
And the attitude is extremely tough, and it seems that there is no room for negotiation at all.
"You"
This sentence really made Xu Changyu a little angry, as if he wanted to make a move.
He had never heard of the closure of the city at all, whether it was Wanshi Pavilion or the major sects, there was no news coming out, and now that someone was actually sealing the city privately, of course he wanted to find out.
You must know that the matter is related to demons, and the situation seems to be very serious, so you definitely can't just leave.
"Forget it, let's go around the main city."
But the next moment, Song Zhishu spoke up, signaling the other party not to be impulsive.
Hearing this, Xu Changyu's brows stretched slightly, but in the end, he still retreated a little and did not continue to entangle.
He knew that Song Zhishu must have calculated in his heart, and since the other party had already spoken, he would also listen.
And at this time.
Song Zhishu just glanced at Yongzhou City in front of him, and then turned around directly.
"Mr. Song, why do you want to leave, something is obviously wrong in Yongzhou, although those people are not ordinary, they can't resist our pace." After leaving the gate of Yongzhou City, Chen Jingyun spoke, and he didn't understand it very well.
Demonic things must not be sloppy.
"Xu Daoyou said before that the demon incident in the main city of Yongzhou was handled by the prince of the Great Wednesday, and judging from the temperament of those people, it should also be a kind of Great Zhou soldiers, so if we rush in, we may cause trouble."
Song Zhishu opened his mouth to explain and gave his reasons.
And as a member of the Scattered Cultivation Alliance, he does have the right to close the city, which is understandable.
As I said before, if you go in directly, I'm afraid it will cause trouble, after all, I am also a member of the Loose Cultivation Alliance.
Behind every Daozi represents a kind of power, which inevitably makes people think more.
"Judging from the news I got, the demon incident in Yongzhou City is not so serious at all, especially now that a period of time has passed, even if it is not completely resolved, it should be almost over, why does it seem that it is not the case now?" Xu Changyu opened his mouth, his duty was to help Song Zhishu understand the demon incidents in various places from Wanshi Pavilion, and he was also clear about this.
"I can feel that there are demons in Yongzhou City, and there are not a few of them, but the strength of those demons should not be strong."
Song Zhishu continued to explain that he was not an ordinary Confucian righteousness, but a heroic righteousness.
Therefore, even if you don't enter the city, you can still clearly feel some of the conditions in the city.
It's serious, but there's no Devil there.
With the methods of the Great Wednesday Prince, if you deal with it with all your might, it should be possible to solve it in a short time.
After all, the other party is backed by the Great Zhou Dynasty, and some ordinary demons are still not much of a threat.
It's just that you obviously have the strength, so why not do it?
Song Zhishu was puzzled.
At the same time, Xu Changyu beside him was the same, but he couldn't figure out the reason.
As for Chen Jingyun, he has not yet come into contact with this level, and he doesn't know what the situation is now.
"Let's go about our business first." Song Zhishu shook his head, didn't think deeply, and continued: "Which city in Yongzhou are we targeting, and how far away is it?" ”
"It's a place called Xunyang City, if you rush at full speed, you should be able to arrive early tomorrow morning."
Xu Changyu also knew that the main city of Yongzhou was now handled by the prince of the Great Wednesday, and it was not easy for them to do anything.
So the most important thing now is to deal with the demon task in hand first.
When Song Zhishu heard this, he immediately nodded.
Immediately, the three of them did not hesitate and rushed to the next target.
And just as they were leaving.
In the city of Yongzhou.
The power of the demons continued to emerge, and the black mist shot straight into the sky.
On the streets, in the houses, it seems to be this kind of smell.
However, only half of the city is like this, and the other half is not much different from ordinary cities, there are people, but there are not many monks.
Yongzhou City is also within the sphere of influence of the Great Zhou Dynasty, so there are mostly mortals.
But those mortals didn't seem to be aware of the changes in the other half of the city.
And in the Yongzhou City Lord's Mansion.
A young man sat on the main seat, his eyes slightly closed, there were bursts of powerful mana fluctuations on his body, and he was wearing a python robe, which seemed to set off his luxurious aura.
"Your Highness, three people just wanted to enter the city, but we blocked them."
Soon, one of the guards walked in, kneeling on one knee and speaking in a respectful tone.
The young man opened his eyes, and momentum swept out.
This person is none other than Ji Yuan, the prince of the Great Wednesday, and he is also the son of the Scattered Cultivation Alliance.
Although the identity of the prince of the Great Zhou Dynasty has disappeared since he joined the Scattered Cultivation Alliance, these are just for some people to see, and the resources and treatment that Ji Yuan enjoys are still in line with the identity of the prince of the Great Zhou.
And after he heard it, he nodded, and then said softly: "It's good to go, now it's the most critical time, remember not to let anyone disturb you, if someone doesn't know how to lift, I will take action myself." ”
"Yes, Your Highness."
The guard responded in a deep voice, but soon seemed to remember something, and couldn't help but say: "Your Highness, we have been locked down for a while, and I am afraid that the news here will spread soon, and if it drags on any longer, I am afraid it will cause criticism." ”
The demon incident, after all, is very important, and if they seal the city and don't deal with it, it will be difficult to be caught.
"It's about getting the word out, letting people know."
The third prince, Ji Yuan, smiled and continued to speak: "Otherwise, how can the world know about His Royal Highness's exploits in Yongzhou City?" ”
