Chapter 82 I will make you pay for your crimes in blood!

"Old Mo, where do you think the caravan members might be hiding?"

Meanwhile, Luo Le'er also started paying attention to news about the caravan.

Although she was a little annoyed that Zhou Xianzong was always hanging out with that Yingxi, it was a matter of life and death after all.

"I don't know, but I heard that the caravan was chased all the way by the Crimson Tower. They probably went to hide in the Monster Forest, since there are many mountains and it's easy for people to hide there."

Old Mo said it incisively.

"Yeah?"

Luo Le'er muttered something to herself, thought for a moment, packed her things, and headed straight for the Monster Forest.

It must be said that Zhou Xianzong was quite authoritative; with a large number of people investigating, it only took half a day.

The whereabouts of the people who kidnapped Yingxi were found.

And the outcome was just as Mo Lao had predicted; they fled towards the Monster Forest.

Many people went after them to kill them.

During the pursuit, two of the three caravan bandits were killed, leaving only one to escape.

Upon receiving the news, Zhou Xianzong rushed to the Monster Forest immediately, disregarding the approaching night.

Although many people came to investigate, the Monster Forest was simply too vast.

In addition, the caravan bandits had lived outside the city for many years and were more familiar with the Monster Forest than most people.

For a time, they still hadn't found the thief.

It wasn't until the third day that Zhou Xianzong followed a trail of blood and arrived at a valley.

He touched the blood on the ground; it hadn't completely congealed yet, indicating that it had been left not long ago.

After entering the valley and conducting some investigation, he indeed discovered something unusual.

"Get out here!"

Zhou Xianzong said coldly.

boom!

He clenched his fist and slammed it hard against the wall in front of him.

Under this terrifying power, the rocks were as fragile as tofu, and were shattered with a single punch.

After the surface stones were crushed, a cave was revealed.

Zhou Xianzong stood up and rushed inside.

In a short while, he arrived at the deepest part, where he saw Yingxi tied to a stone pillar, unconscious.

Fortunately, she was not injured; it seemed that her cultivation had only been sealed.

"Yingxi!"

Zhou Xianzong called out softly.

Seeing that she was still unconscious, Zhou Xianzong quickly walked over.

call out!

Just then, a whooshing sound suddenly came from the dimly lit corner nearby.

It was a dagger.

Even in the dim light, it gleamed with an astonishing cold light.

A knife stabbed, aimed directly at Zhou Xianzong's neck.

snort!

Zhou Xianzong snorted coldly.

His hand, like an eagle's claw, suddenly reached out and grabbed in the direction from which the dagger had been thrust.

With a bang, the dagger was shattered on the spot, and the figure in the shadows had an arm torn off.

"ah……"

The man screamed and fell to the ground.

Zhou Xianzong looked over and saw that the person was none other than the one painted by the waiter from Wanbaolou.

"Damn extra."

Zhou Xianzong said in a cold voice.

He raised his large foot and stomped on the man's head.

"No, don't..."

He cried out in terror, trying to run away, but it was too late.

Bang!

With a muffled thud, his head was crushed by Zhou Xianzong's foot.

A dignified cultivator at the eighth level of the Qi Opening Realm died a humiliating death at the feet of Zhou Xianzong.

"Yingxi, how are you?"

After killing the bandits, Zhou Xianzong hurriedly rescued Yingxi.

He held Yingxi in his arms, continuously channeling spiritual energy into her, and then fed her a pill before she slowly woke up.

"Young master."

Yingxi's voice was somewhat weak.

More than anything, there was surprise and emotion.

She thought she would be taken to the caravan's hideout, but she never expected that at the last moment, the first person to save her would be Zhou Xianzong.

Are you alright?

Zhou Xianzong asked, seemingly contemplating suicide.

"I'm fine."

Yingxi shook her head.

"What exactly happened? Why was there no sound at all when you were arrested?"

Zhou Xianzong frowned.

"Young master, those people had already ambushed me on the second floor. As soon as I went up, the three of them sealed my cultivation. They wanted to find out the whereabouts of the Crimson Tower from me. After I told them, people from the city came out to chase after me."

Left with no other choice, the three had to flee with me, using me as a hostage.

Yingxi briefly explained the cause and effect.

Upon hearing this, Zhou Xianzong breathed a sigh of relief.

It seems that what he thought was true. These three bandits probably didn't expect that capturing Yingxi would cause such a big reaction.

Otherwise, they certainly wouldn't dare to take action.

These people only knew that Yingxi had been to the Crimson Pavilion, but they did not know that she had already become Zhou Xianzong's woman.

As a result, they ended up wiping out their entire team.

"Have you heard them mention that the others are hiding there?"

Zhou Xianzong asked.

"No, they wrote the message down on paper and sent it back by a hawk."

Yingxi answered truthfully.

Upon hearing this, Zhou Xianzong frowned.

He had originally thought that if Yingxi knew, he wouldn't mind killing the caravan members for the Crimson Pavilion.

Now it seems impossible.

roar!

Just then, a deafening roar came from the beast.

In fact, doing so was a mistake, because if a monster really wanted to eat a person, it would definitely follow the scent to find them.

At that point, it became a situation where they could trap the fish in a jar.

"Stay behind me and don't leave my sight."

Zhou Xianzong gave an order.

"yes."

Yingxi nodded slightly.

The two hurried outside. Zhou Xianzong cautiously activated his senses but found no trace of the demonic beast, which relieved him.

He wasn't too afraid of Celestial Realm demonic beasts on his own, after all, he was also a Celestial Realm expert.

However, since Yingxi was by his side, he had to be more cautious in his actions.

Rumble!

Just after the two stepped out of the cave, a series of muffled rumbling sounds came from afar, and the ground trembled slightly from the impact.

"The sound is coming from over there; it sounds like there's a big battle going on."

Zhou Xianzong looked toward the source of the sound.

His eyes sparkled with intelligence, and one could vaguely see a calm lake ahead.

I'll blanch it.

Could it be that giant python?

The thought suddenly flashed through Zhou Xianzong's mind. Calculating the time, it seemed to be today after all.

He had been searching for Yingxi's whereabouts for the past two days and had completely forgotten about this matter.

Judging from the intensity of the battle, it must be that the giant python and the third elder of the Overlord Body Sect fighting.

Xiao Potian should have arrived by now.

"Let's go take a look."

Zhou Xianzong said something and headed straight for Pinghu.

Yingxi had already guessed it, so she didn't ask any more questions and followed closely behind Zhou Xianzong.

Before the two even arrived, they saw the lake ahead surging with waves, and a giant python, as thick as a water vat and nearly a hundred meters long, broke through the huge waves and soared into the sky.

At the same time, nine enormous water columns rose up along with it, creating a spectacular and awe-inspiring scene.

"You beast, you killed my Hegemony Sect disciple! Today you are doomed, and I will make you pay for this in blood!"

Opposite the giant python was an old man with gray hair, over fifty years old.

You can see a hideous bloodstain on the old man's arm, which is still bleeding.

That was caused by a giant python.

Behind him were seven or eight more corpses, all mangled and bloody from being bitten, a truly gruesome sight.
