XXVII. Changes in the Hunting Grounds

Star Picking Courtyard, Sword Pavilion

When Mo Yu returned to the Star Picking Courtyard from the Imperial Capital City, he brought back a Fire Feather Bird that had not been destroyed by him.

Chu Qing looked at the motionless Fire Feather Bird in his palm, and said to Mo Yu with a solemn face: "Use Gu worms to absorb people's essence and blood and turn into Fire Feather Birds, flying into the three major hunting grounds day after day, Mo Yu, what do you think?"

Mo Yuyi arched his hand and said: "Master, this matter must be related to the big demon in the hunting ground, it's just that there is no big demon in the hunting ground that can break through, and there is spiritual power suppression in it, and the disciple thinks that the big demon of the Fire Ling Dao has infiltrated from the north and intends to destroy the enchantment of the hunting ground." ”

Chu Qing shook his head: "The earth-level demons in the northern realm may have been hunted and killed before they reached the imperial capital, how could they take such a big risk to do such a thing in the imperial capital? ”

"Shizun is saying that the big demon in the imperial capital is not from the north, it is... Hunting ground?!" Mo Yu was a little incredulous.

"Very likely!" Chu Qing nodded.

"However, the enchantments and spiritual power fluctuations of the three major hunting grounds are regularly inspected by Elder Jiang Yan, once there is a loophole in the enchantment, he will definitely know about it, how can he let the three earth-level demons out?" Mo Yu's eyes widened.

Chu Qing frowned and stared at the Fire Feather Bird in his hand and said, "Elder Jiang naturally won't let go of the Great Demon, the Spirit Gathering Technique is the means of the Fire Cloud Demon Immortal!" Mo Yu, do you remember how long it has been since the Fire Feather Bird appeared in the Star Picking Courtyard?"

"The disciple only remembers that a year ago I had seen the Fire Feather Bird appear in the hunting grounds. ”

"It's been at least a year, and it seems that the hunting ground has been in trouble for a long time, and it has been hidden from all of us. Chu Qing gasped, and then said solemnly: "Mo Yu, you immediately go to the northern border to find Elder Jiang Yan, tell him that there is a change in the hunting ground, and ask him to stop the 'Heavenly Punishment' first and take all the disciples back to the academy, the sooner the better." ”

"Disciple obeys!" Mo Yu saluted and left quickly.

"Wait, call Chen Wen and Yang Ziyi, and the three of you go together!" Chu Qing stopped Mo Yu, who hadn't walked a few steps yet.

"Yes!"

Mo Yu hesitated for a moment and nodded.

After Mo Yu left, Chu Qing Huoran stood up and shouted outside the door, "Xiao Wu!"

As soon as the words fell, a young man turned into the door, bowed and saluted, "What do you command?"

"Send a thunder order, inform all the disciples who are on a mission outside to return to the courtyard quickly, and then go and tell the dean and a few elders that there may be changes in the hunting ground, I will go to check first, and then go to the deacon's hall to discuss matters!"

"Disciple obeys!" the young man saluted, then turned around and walked quickly out of the Sword Pavilion.

After the order was completed, he untied the fire feather bird imprisoned in the palm of his hand and said, "Let's go, take this seat to see what kind of wind and waves you want to turn!"

After saying that, he stretched out his palm, and after a long chirp, the fire feather bird flew far away in the direction of the hunting ground, and Chu Qing followed closely behind it and swept towards the hunting ground.

At this time, not long after the drizzle stopped, Shen Yu and Liu Ziqi also returned to the Star Picking Courtyard from the imperial capital.

"Actually, have you ever thought that maybe you are really not suitable?" After being silent all the way, Shen Yu took the lead in speaking.

"Maybe. Liu Ziqi said lightly, she has thought a lot along the way, and she has calmed down a lot, and the air after the rain makes her feel a little relieved.

"I thought I'd be upset, but I... I don't even know if I really like him now!"

"Sometimes, liking creates a habit, and sometimes, the habit becomes a real liking. In fact, you are careful to keep it, and the habit that you are unwilling to change may just be because you are unwilling. ”

"After all, I was wrong. Liu Ziqi sighed faintly.

Shen Yu raised his voice and said: "There is no right or wrong in this kind of thing, how can you know the wind when the kite is in your hand! Everyone has their own life, after all, the kite after flying belongs to the sky, isn't it tiring to strangle the thin line in your hand? Why not..."

"Shen Yu, don't say it!" Liu Ziqi interrupted him.

"You'll never understand your place in my heart!" Shen Yu's lips trembled slightly.

"Of course I understand! But what can I understand? I can't pretend to be the next two people in my heart, I know what you think, I want to have a person who is a hundred times better than me to appear by your side, but I'm also afraid!" Liu Ziqi's eyes were filled with tears.

If you understand, why do you have such thoughts? Shen Yu sighed: "This heart starts with me, why do you need to feel guilty? This is my fault, if this is the case, I will no longer bother you from now on." ”

"Shen Yu! I..." Liu Ziqi didn't know how to speak for a while.

"Why are you so childish about this!Are some things said like this?Take your time, most of the words in your relationship are impulsive, junior sister, don't take it seriously!" Mo Yu, who suddenly appeared behind him, put his arm on Shen Yu's shoulder, and looked at Liu Ziqi with a smile.

Fang Cai Mo Yu and the other two demon hunters hurriedly came, just hearing Shen Yu's words, but Shen Yu and Liu Ziqi didn't notice the three behind them.

Liu Ziqi turned his head a little embarrassed and said, "Senior brother, we didn't talk about feelings!"

Mo Yu smiled lightly, then looked at Shen Yu and said, "It's not a child, think about it clearly." ”

"Senior brother, you?" asked Shen Yu awkwardly looking at the three people behind him who seemed to be smiling.

"There is a change in the hunting ground, we have to go to Elder Jiang Yan, gossip and wait for me to come back and talk to you, we will leave first, you stay in the academy and be careful!"

Mo Yu put away his smile, and Shen Yu and Liu Ziqi were obviously a little surprised when they heard it.

"Those three senior brothers, you should also be careful!"

"Well, let's go first!"

Mo Yu and the three of them hurriedly left the Star Picking Courtyard.

After the three of them left, Shen Yu and Liu Ziqi looked at each other, their faces became solemn at the same time, and they had no intention of continuing to argue.

Sou!

A silver dragon-like firework flew up from the depths of the Star Picking Courtyard, and finally dispersed into a white silver dragon and flew in all directions, and from time to time it made a loud thunderous sound.

"Wind Thunder Order!"

Shen Yu and Liu Ziqi blurted out at the same time when they saw it.

"Let's go, go outside the deacon's hall!"

The two then walked briskly to the deacon's hall.

"Don't be nervous, I said I would protect you, no matter when!" Shen Yu said on the way.

"Your mood changes are exactly the same as your senior brother!" Liu Ziqi pouted.

"What?" Liu Ziqi said quickly, but Shen Yu didn't hear clearly.

"It's nothing!" Liu Ziqi walked straight away quickly, and Shen Yu frowned when she saw that she stopped talking, so she quickly followed.

Star Picking Courtyard, three major hunting grounds

A flaming bird flew into the ground level hunting ground among the three major hunting grounds, and Chu Qing followed all the way in.

Chirp –

The flaming bird let out a low chirp, then flew into a very secret cave and disappeared without a trace.

Chu Qing slowly fell to the ground from a giant tree, slightly closing his eyes and perceiving the fluctuations of spiritual power around him.

"Three?" The result he perceived surprised him, the ground-level hunting ground is used to test the demon hunting array and the disciples who have just stepped into the dream fairyland, among which there are only a dozen ground-level demons, and the spiritual power suppression of the ground-level hunting ground is even more powerful than the soul-level hunting ground, and it is almost impossible for the big demons inside to advance, how can there be three of them here?

There was a long roar from the cave, and the demon inside seemed to sense something and became restless.

Chu Qing's eyes turned cold, and with the surging of spiritual power around him, a cold aura spread from his feet to the cave, and the entire cave was frozen in an instant, and the big demon inside was no longer silent.

Syllable!

Chu Qing stood on the spot and stretched out his hand to grab the entrance of the cave, and the three corpses that had been frozen into ice were broken into pieces by Chu Qing, he glanced at the fragments of the corpses on the ground, his face was full of doubts.

These are three earth-level demons who have just advanced!

Chu Qing frowned, then left the cave entrance and closed his eyes slightly in the hunting ground, perceiving the spiritual power around him all the way.

After a long time, he slowly opened his eyes, and his deep eyes were full of surprise.

"What's going on here?"

Chu Qing muttered to himself in disbelief, the result of perceiving all the way made him both shocked and puzzled, in just one year, there were more than 100 earth-level great demons in the inland level hunting ground! And what puzzled him was that even if these great demons were deliberately converging their spiritual power, why didn't Jiang Yan's strength detect a trace of abnormality? There was such a change in the earth-level hunting ground, what about the soul level and the heaven level?

Thinking of this, Chu Qing's figure disappeared into the Ground Rank Hunting Ground in a flash, and after a while, he came to the Heaven Rank Hunting Ground.

In the deepest part of the Heavenly Rank Hunting Ground, there was no living creature around the bare area, and not far away there was a dark cave mouth like a hideous mouth devouring everything, and the word fire cloud on the cave entrance was faintly recognizable.

The spiritual power here was so suppressed that even Chu Qing felt a sense of oppression, and he took a deep breath and stepped into this area without any life.

"Hehe, the old man still wants to hide it for a little longer, I didn't expect to be discovered by you so soon, but it's too late!"

A cold laugh came from the dark hole, making Chu Qing clench his fists.

"Huoyun Demon Immortal! Sure enough, it's your ghost!" Chu Qing said angrily.

"That's right, it's the old man! After so many years, it's time to settle this old account!"

A gust of evil wind blew, and the Fire Cloud Demon Immortal with a wooden staff suddenly appeared at the entrance of the cave, and his white eyes stared at Chu Qing like thunder and lightning.

"Elder Chu, blood debt, blood payment!" said the Fire Cloud Demon Immortal through gritted teeth.

"You can't kill me!"

"Hehe, boy, if the old man's spiritual power was suppressed like a year ago, you would still have a chance to escape from my hands, but now, do you really think you can leave alive?"

"That seat will take you today!" Chu Qing's spiritual power surged in an instant, and the robe of encouragement made a hunting sound.

"Hmph, look for death!" the Fire Cloud Demon Fairy narrowed his eyes, and the wooden staff in his hand struck the ground.

For a while, the wind was fierce, and several black winds quickly surrounded Chu Qing, and a huge sense of oppression came to his face.

"Hehe, my lord, this kid is a good material, just give me a tooth sacrifice!"

"Giggles, blackmail, he's the man I fancied, if you dare to touch a single hair of him, I'll kill you!" a bewitching female voice came from another black wind.

"How is it possible!" Chu Qing's face suddenly turned pale.

"Evil Barrier!" he shouted angrily, and an ice ruler appeared in his hand, and countless ice blades flew towards the black wind surrounding him.

Seeing this, the four black winds quickly dodged and stopped beside the Huoyun Demon Immortal, and then out of it, three men and one woman, four humanoid demons.

"Giggles, you're quite angry, huh?" The charming woman twisted her body and walked in front of Chu Qing, licking her lips and smiling.

"Where the hell did you come from!" Chu Qing shouted angrily, he clearly knew that there was originally only one Heaven Rank Great Demon in the Heaven Rank Hunting Ground, but now there were four more, how could he not be frightened.

"Where did you come from? Giggles, of course it's from here, hehe. The woman pursed her lips and smiled.

"What are you waiting for, you guys go up together and kill him!" the Fire Cloud Demon Immortal said lightly.

"Oh, such a handsome man, it's a pity. The woman's face turned hideous.

"Hey, it's delicious!"

The four humanoid demons smiled presumptuously, and a weapon appeared in their hands and rushed up, surrounding Chu Qing in the middle again.
