By the end of the painting, beads of sweat had formed on Nalan Jingyue's forehead. Only then did he breathe a sigh of relief.
"alright."
Everyone saw the patterns of the formation disappear in an instant.
Su Yao couldn't help but asked in surprise: "Now that you have finished drawing this formation, won't you trap us in it?"
Nalan Jingyue couldn't help laughing. Why were her ideas always so strange? But he still patiently explained, "No, the formation I drew can naturally control it. Have you ever seen a formation master being trapped by the formation he set up?"
Nalan Jingyue's last sentence was obviously a bit more sarcastic.
Su Yao heard it and couldn't help feeling embarrassed: "That's right, I was thinking about it wrong."
"Let's go to the room opposite." Nalan Jingyue naturally wouldn't continue to dwell on her question.
He strode towards the room opposite, and following the same instructions, he quickly set up the formation in the room opposite.
After finishing all this, everyone planned to go out for a walk around the neighborhood as agreed before to see if there were any new discoveries.
As soon as they walked out of the restaurant, they headed towards the north gate. The guards at the north gate were very surprised to see them, but they didn't say anything and pretended not to see them.
They looked around the city wall again and again, but there seemed to be nothing unusual. They walked around the restaurant a few times, but still found nothing.
It was almost dark and we still found nothing, so we had to go back to the restaurant. In this situation, it seemed that we could only wait and see.
According to the previous plan, Nalan Jingyue suppressed his cultivation to the early stage of Jindan in advance, while Su Yao and others quietly returned to the opposite room to wait.
As night fell, the atmosphere on Su Yao and the other two's side became extremely tense, but to their disappointment, there was no movement from the opposite door.
They didn't think that the person would not come, so they had to cheer up and continue waiting for the person to appear.
And this wait lasted until the hour of the Raven. There were noises coming from Nalan Jingyue's room, vaguely sounds of fighting.
Su Yao's heart tightened. Here they come. The three of them rushed towards Nalan Jingyue's room together.
As soon as he entered the room, he saw Nalan Jingyue fighting with that man. Looking at the man's figure, it was exactly as what Master Wang had investigated. He was strong and had a tall back. He did not look like an ordinary human cultivator.
It was a pity that the man was covered in a black robe and his appearance could not be seen at all. Su Yao and the other two did not have time to think about it and joined the battle. The man seemed very angry when he saw that there were suddenly three more people.
The sound of grinding teeth rang out from his mouth: "Despicable immortals. They actually played such a trick."
"Hmph, you are the despicable one. You actually kidnapped so many of our immortal cultivators. What on earth do you want to do?" Xu Fuyi shouted.
"Hehe, don't think you can keep me here just by relying on your numbers. You are still too naive." After saying that, he turned around and was about to escape.
The moment he turned around, Su Yao quickly grabbed his black robe and pulled it hard, and the black robe was pulled off by Su Yao.
The man's figure and appearance were completely exposed in front of them, and everyone's pupils suddenly dilated.
That person, oh no, to be precise, that person was not a person, he just looked like a person, except that he had two pointed horns on his head, a rough face, and the nails on both hands were all black.
Before Su Yao and the others could figure out what this thing was, Nalan Jingyue shouted out loudly, "Demon?"
Su Yao and the other two were all surprised and thought they had heard wrongly.
The demons realized their identities had been exposed and gnashed their teeth, saying, "Damn the immortals, we will meet again."
After saying that, the monster turned around and tried to flee. Nalan Jingyue hurriedly said, "Chase it quickly! My formation can't trap the demons!"
Su Yao and the other two reacted quickly and chased after the demon. As expected, the moment the demon came into contact with the formation, it passed through without any hindrance.
The four of them kept chasing closely, and they used their body skills to the extreme, and soon caught up with the demon. This was thanks to their continuous practice of "Xuan Ji Bu" in the space during this period of time. Now their body skills were fast enough to catch up with the demon easily.
But Nalan Jingyue suddenly sent a message to the three of them: "You don't have to follow me anymore. I will hide quietly and check where he is hiding."
Everyone had no objection and just slowly slowed down.
The demon distracted himself and looked back, and found that they could not keep up with his speed. He was overjoyed, thinking that they were exhausted, so he fled in one direction without looking back.
However, he didn't notice that Nalan Jingyue quietly hid his figure and followed him not far away.
Soon the demon came to the outer wall of a house. He stood outside the wall and looked back cautiously to make sure that no one was following him. Then he turned over and jumped into the house.
Nalan Jingyue followed the demon into the mansion cautiously.
The demon entered the house and went around a rockery. Nalan Jingyue waited for a while, but the demon still did not appear, so he carefully walked behind the rockery.
But there was nothing there. The demon disappeared out of thin air. Nalan Jingyue still didn't give up. He continued to check several times, but still found nothing.
He had to give up and looked back at the house. There was not even a trace of light. After thinking about it, Nalan Jingyue decided to explore the house as well.
I quietly searched the entire house and found that there was not a single cultivator there. I guess they must have been wiped out by the demons.
Finding nothing, he had to go back home. Nalan Jingyue stood outside the wall, memorized the location of the house, and then turned around and headed back the way he came.
Just when he got halfway back, he ran into Su Yao and the other two who were still waiting on the roadside.
Su Yao was the first to ask, "Are you okay? Have you found anything?"
"I'm fine. This isn't the place to talk. Let's go back to the restaurant and talk."
The rest of the people naturally had no objection.
As soon as they returned to the room in the restaurant, Xu Fuyi began to ask anxiously, "Jingyue, when we were fighting just now, you said they were demons? Did I hear correctly?"
It was rare that this time Nalan Jingyue did not take out his tea. Instead, he said with a serious expression: "You heard it right. That is the demon clan. I happened to see it in an ancient book before."
The expressions of Su Yao and the other two changed. Others might not know, but they had just learned from Senior Aotian about the war between the three tribes thousands of years ago. The final result of the demon tribe was that they were sealed. Now, thousands of years have passed, and the demon tribe suddenly appeared again. It seems that the world of immortal cultivation is going to be in turmoil again.
