The next morning, Ye Xiyun woke up first and stared blankly at the boy in front of her.
With him by my side, I always feel so warm and at ease.
There was a commotion outside the inn, as if something had happened.
Then, Ye Suixin also woke up and saw Ye Xiyun staring at her, and said, "You're awake? Why aren't you up?"
"Isn't it because I was afraid of disturbing you?" Ye Xiyun's face flushed slightly.
"Oh~, let's get up quickly, we still need to investigate the matter of demonic cultivators."
The two got up, washed up, and prepared to have breakfast.
At this moment, Peng Fei ran over: "Sui Xin, something bad has happened! Today, all the people in the town who drank the magic water have fallen ill, and a large number of them have died."
Ye Suixin, forgetting about breakfast, asked, "What? What happened? Tell me in detail."
“Today, in town…” Peng Fei explained the situation to Ye Suixin.
Basically, all those who drank the holy water fell ill, and their symptoms were much more severe than last time. More than ten people have died so far.
"How could this happen? Let's go take a look."
Other elders and teachers are also investigating. The test is no longer the most important thing. This incident is beyond imagination and does not seem to be a small-scale demon operation.
Upon reaching the main street of the town, various sounds of fear and panic filled the air, creating a tense atmosphere.
Ye Suixin divided the Rejuvenation Pills between Peng Fei and Ye Xiyun, instructing them to each go and rescue the people.
He probably still has about seventy pills left. Although it's not many, he can save as many as he can. Besides, the sect elders won't just stand by and do nothing.
Thus, everyone, including more than twenty teachers, was plunged into the tense rescue mission.
On a secluded hilltop on the outskirts of the town, 'Taoist Liu Lin' smiled faintly, 'Two good-for-nothings, I still have to take action myself. Almost there, just a little bit more.'
......
Liu Feng sat in front of a patient, feeding him a Rejuvenating Pill while thinking about other things.
Have you really thought this through? Why is this happening? Your confusion is written all over your face.
On a large ship outside Xiaoyu Town, three Xuan Yuan Realm elders sat in the head seats, with Ye Hao and his wife, along with Elder Yu Hui, seated below them.
"What are your thoughts on this matter?" Song Yu asked.
“I sensed the aura of a great formation in the town, where all life force was gathered together, but I don’t know where it was sent. This matter is probably not simple, and the demons have a grand plan,” another Xuan Yuan Elder said.
The other elders nodded in agreement.
Suddenly, Lu Yeling spoke up: "Elder, I sensed where the life force went."
Lu Yeling was originally a member of the Life Clan. Before the decline of the Life Clan on the Tianling Continent, it was one of the ten great families. She cultivated the "Heavenly Maiden Scripture" and was extremely sensitive to life force.
Previously, Lu Yeling had been sensing the flow of life force, but it had been drifting around; now it had finally stopped.
“Right here,” Lu Yeling said to Song Yu, taking out a map.
That is, the place where the Taoist priest was.
Song Yu was somewhat surprised and asked directly, "Are you sure?"
“I’m sure, and that life force is slowly dissipating,” Lu Yeling said firmly.
"Alright, let's not delay, let's go take a look," Song Yu said.
Everyone nodded and flew off in that direction.
On that secluded hilltop, a massive, blood-red magic circle appeared beneath the Taoist priest's feet. The priest sat in the center, grinning broadly.
"Liu Lin, you're really something. It's worth all the years I've spent taking care of you two brothers. You're much better than your brother. This original demon seed is really good, hahaha."
A surge of white life force rushed in, and the Taoist priest quickly gathered it with both hands, transforming it into black gas that flowed into the great formation. He muttered to himself, "It's here. The last bit of life force has arrived. So, the plan must begin..."
Suddenly, an attack struck the protective shield of the array, interrupting the man's mutterings. "What are you doing? Stop right now, or don't blame us for being impolite."
Song Yu launched an attack, and the sheer size of the formation made him feel extremely uneasy.
"Hahaha, too late, you're too late. The demons are about to rise, this is our first attack, hahaha!" The Taoist laughed as he channeled his last bit of life force into the great formation.
Song Yu suddenly shouted, "Everyone, get out of the way! This formation is tearing space apart!"
In the blink of an eye, a huge crack appeared in the sky, from which countless black wisps of smoke surged forth, accompanied by lightning and thunder. A deep voice boomed, "Qingtian, you've done well. I will give you what you want."
Gradually, a figure slowly emerged, a stunningly handsome man clad in black armor, with a pair of black horns on his head and a faint smile on his lips.
"Thank you, Your Majesty," Qingtian said, flying out of the Taoist's body and bowing to the man.
As the Imperial Seal appeared, countless black wisps behind it transformed into human figures, fierce and menacing, revealing sharp teeth and laughing wildly.
"Humans, we're back! Hahahaha!"
"So much delicious food!"
I can't wait!
...
Countless vile words echoed from the sky.
That's right, it's the demon army.
"Quickly, Yuhe, activate the teleportation array," Song Yu's voice echoed in Zhou Yuhe's mind.
She also saw the countless figures on the horizon, and immediately stopped what she was doing, tossing a jade disc into the air.
Then a huge spatial rift appeared, from which a wisp of white mist drifted out, and an old man with an air of otherworldly grace appeared, followed by thousands of cultivators.
The teleportation disc was given to her by Song Yu to prevent being caught off guard in case of an accident.
The old man's name was Zheng Qiao. He was one of the ten elders of the main peak and one of the three experts at the Divine Origin Realm, ranking third and at the fourth level of the Divine Origin Realm.
