They came to an inn that looked to be the largest in the city.

A faint light shone through the cracks in the wooden boards of the door, indicating that the people inside were still awake.

Bai Yu walked up and knocked on the door.

After a while, some rustling sounds were heard from inside the door, and the person inside came behind the door quietly.

A trembling male voice came out, "Who, who is it?"

Bai Yu frowned slightly, "I'm staying at the hotel."

The man spoke in a low voice, as if talking to himself, "The one staying at the hotel..."

After waiting for a while, the person inside raised his voice and said, "I'm here. I'll open the door."

The door was opened a crack from the inside, and the man looked out through the crack. Seeing that there were three people, he boldly opened the door.

As soon as someone entered the room, he immediately closed the door.

The man was wearing a coarse linen shirt, his face was thin and sallow, and he forced an embarrassed smile at the three people:

"Please don't be offended, my dear guests. Our city is a little uneasy at night, so... hehe."

After a brief explanation, he asked:

"How many rooms do you need?"

"Two pieces upstairs."

The man went to the counter to get the key and walked towards the stairs:

"Okay, okay, come with me."

The wooden stairs creaked as he stepped on them. The man asked casually:

"I think you are quite extraordinary, but are you a cultivator?"

Bai Yu: "Not bad."

The man nodded, led the person to the door, and warned: "It's best not to open the window at night, and don't go out. It's really not safe here."

There were a few monks who came here before. They relied on their abilities and ran around everywhere at night, but they never came back.

He couldn't tell which cultivators were more powerful, but it was still better to give them some advice.

After saying that, he went downstairs.

-

The room was small, the things inside were very old, and there was a lingering smell of cheap incense in the room.

This time, Mo Qin did not fall asleep, but practiced all night until dawn.

It was not until dawn that voices of people began to be heard outside.

The originally warm sunshine in this small town seemed to be covered with a layer of cold gauze, and even the voices of hawking were weak.

The whole town exudes an atmosphere of dejection.

Yi Mengqi didn't eat anything else, probably because the food here was not to her liking.

"My dear guests, are you really not going to eat anything?"

The waiter held a towel in his hand and bent down to speak to the three people.

Bai Yu took out some change and said to the waiter:

"No need for food, but we need to ask you something."

When the waiter saw the silver, he immediately smiled and his eyes were fixed on the silver.

"Ask me, ask me, there's nothing I don't know about this city."

Yi Mengqi looked at the waiter's fawning appearance and snorted disdainfully.

The waiter glanced at Yi Mengqi, his eyes almost glued to her, but when he thought of the silver, he looked away.

Bai Yu took the waiter's behavior seriously, but didn't say anything. Instead, he asked:

"Why can't you go out at night in this town?"

When the waiter heard this and looked at the three people's attire, he understood.

Although this matter is horrifying, it is not a secret that cannot be told.

"Hey, this matter..."

The waiter told the story like pouring beans.

One night a year ago, a missing person occurred.

Three men and two women disappeared at one time.

In this small place, it is a big deal. Everyone is concerned about it, but they are not too scared.

Until four more people disappeared a few days later.

However, the government's investigation had no clue.

Everyone began to feel insecure, and gradually fewer people went out at night.

Less than two months later, two monks passed by and heard about this incident. They thought it was caused by a demon and decided to kill it.

That night, the man went out and never came back.

Later, several waves of cultivators came one after another to kill the monster, but they all disappeared in the end.

"My dear guests, please listen to my advice. This is not something that ordinary people can do. If you don't have the ability, it's better not to take the risk."

"As long as you stay quiet, nothing will happen."

Bai Yu threw the broken silver into the waiter's arms. The waiter weighed the silver in his hands and left happily.

After the waiter left, Bai Yu thought for two seconds and said to Mo Qin:

"I'm planning to meet this monster. What do you think, fellow seeker?"

As if he was afraid that Mo Qin would not go, he tried to persuade her.

"Since we are out here to gain experience, we must naturally face challenges head-on. If we can save the people in a certain area, it will be considered a merit."

Mo Qin understood that he was trying to test her.

I'm not afraid anymore.

She also learned a lot of other martial arts and sword techniques, so she is not afraid of exposing anything in a real fight.

Mo Qin agreed immediately, "That's exactly what I was thinking."

-

at night.

Mo Qin came out of the window and came to the street, while Bai Yu appeared alone.

He explained to Mo Qin, "Junior Sister Yi's cultivation isn't as high as yours and mine, and she doesn't know how powerful this monster is. Let's just go with the two of us."

"If this monster is really powerful, we will be able to escape more easily."

Mo Qin didn't care whether Yi Mengqi went or not. If she went, she might really become a burden.

"Fellow Daoist Yu has thought it through."

"Then let's go find that monster now."

As soon as she came out, Mo Qin sensed a faint demonic aura in the air, like a huge veil covering the entire town, and she couldn't find the source.
