Zhongli Tingzhou rushed to the meeting point. David had just been killed by Gao Han and his blood was still hot. Gao Han stood in the air, as if he was the only one left between heaven and earth. He paused and came to the bloody Gao Han.

"You made a breakthrough?"

Gao Han's eyes turned to him: "Well, this demon is more difficult to deal with than the previous ones. I was ready to run away, but I didn't expect to have a breakthrough. How are you doing?"

"Let's get out of here first."

"good."

Not long after the two left, the angry Lord of Feixing City arrived with a violent aura.

All that greeted him was David's dead body.

Although he knew that David's situation might not be very good, the Lord of Feixing City still did not expect that David, his most trusted subordinate, whom he even planned to let inherit his position as Lord of the City in the future, would die like this.

…

Ever since the news of the incident in Xiaori City reached Heishi City, Yuanran has been very worried about whether Gao Han and his uncle-master would be in trouble.

Especially in the south direction, more and more monks retreated back into the city.

"Why are you back too?" Some human monks returned to Blackrock City and started to greet everyone they knew.

"Don't mention it. Those demons are like crazy. They will stick to human monks as soon as they meet them." The acquaintance shook his head. He couldn't afford to fight, so he had to come back.

"I heard that it was because Xiaori City was destroyed, is that right?"

"If that's true, it would be very satisfying, but I just heard it from others."

A man walked out and said excitedly: "Xiao Ri City was indeed destroyed. I saw it with my own eyes."

A group of people immediately gathered around, "I heard that after all the demons in Xiaori City were killed, they were burned down again. Is this true?"

"Of course it's true. The fire burned for three days and three nights and it didn't go out. Apart from the sound of people being burned, there was no screaming. It's still creepy to think about it."

"The fire that didn't go out for three days and three nights, could it be the fire of a weapon refiner? Only the fire of a weapon refiner can burn for so long."

"I've always heard that Xiaori City was destroyed by a Nascent Soul cultivator. Could it be that he was also a weapon refiner?"

"Is there anyone from Qixing Valley here? Tell me, are you from Qixing Valley?"

When it comes to weapon refiners, many people think of Qixing Valley first.

It’s not because only Qixing Valley can produce weapon refiners, but because Qixing Valley is well-known for its weapon refiners.

Just like the Zixiao Sect, which is famous in the Lingtian Continent for its sword cultivation, although it also has weapon cultivation, its fame is not as great as that of the Qixing Valley, which specializes in weapon refining. Each sect has its own strengths and a hundred flowers bloom.

As one of the largest cities in the Demon Battlefield, Black Stone City naturally has weapon refiners from the Weapon Star Valley.

There were just a few young people, and when they heard everyone talking about Qixing Valley, they all showed proud expressions, proud of this honor.

Seeing a pair of eyes on them, the leading young man said modestly: "In our Qixing Valley, there are indeed elders in the Nascent Soul stage who entered the Demon Battlefield, but we are not sure whether they are our elders. After all, our Qishi Valley is not the only one with a Nascent Soul stage weapon refiner."

"Brother Gu, don't be so modest at this time. If not the weapon refiner from your Qixing Valley, who else could it be?" The other party's humility immediately won everyone's favor.

"I'm really not being modest. Besides, the person who destroyed the city might not be just one person. There might be others as well." He didn't dare to take the credit for it before he was sure. If the real culprit jumped out, he would slap him in the face, as well as Qixinggu's face.

Everyone was stunned. Yes, Nascent Soul cultivators are very powerful, so they always thought it was a single person, but there was no evidence to show that it must be a single person. The person who set the fire might also be the weapon refiner brought by the Nascent Soul cultivator.

"I heard that demons are all very rich. I wonder if it's true." Someone murmured.

When everyone heard this, they started to change the subject enthusiastically.

"Who told you that? Monsters are not necessarily rich. They are more short of resources than us. They will use up the resources they get as soon as possible. Sometimes it is better to find them in the wild than to rob a monster. You can get more than what you get by robbing it."

"But that may not be the case. Some demons are indeed very wealthy, especially the descendants of the great demons. They definitely have no shortage of resources."

"Now we are the ones being hunted."

"Xiao Ri City was destroyed. The demons could not find the murderer and were unable to seek revenge. They have been looking for other human monks."

"Why……"

…

Seeing that everyone was no longer focusing on whether the Nascent Soul cultivator was the weapon refiner of Qixing Valley, Gu Feizhou breathed a sigh of relief.

"Senior brother, why did you refute just now? I think it is very likely that it is the weapon refiner from our Qixing Valley." said the junior brother.

Gu Feizhou disagreed and said, "It's very likely, but it's just a possibility."

“But I heard that Uncle Zhuang also went into the Demon Battlefield a while ago in order to find a material that is only available there. Who knows, it might really be him.” If there hadn’t been a Nascent Soul cultivator from their Weapon Master Valley in the Demon Battlefield, he wouldn’t have thought it was from their Weapon Star Valley.

"The demon battlefield is so big, it's not easy to meet him." Gu Feizhou actually thought that it might be Uncle Zhuang, but he was not sure. As he said, the demon battlefield was too big, and they might not have entered through the same entrance, so the possibility of meeting was even lower.

"Okay, let's stop talking about this for now. Don't tell everyone that this is Qixing Valley, okay?"

"Got it, Brother."

Everyone is not stupid. They are just saying this to their own people. If they really tell others, it will not only bring shame to them, but also to Qixing Valley.

…

"Uncle Qin, why haven't our great-uncle and junior brother Gao come back yet? It's been almost a month. How about I go and look for them?"

Yuan Ran stood nearby and listened to their chatter. He became even more worried when he saw that the commander-level and grand commander-level demons had been dispatched. He couldn't help but come to find Qin Changsheng.

"Your great-grandmaster is at least a Jindan-stage cultivator. Even if he encounters a late-stage commander or great-perfection demon, he can run away if he can't defeat him. As for the great commander-level demon, if you don't go deep into the battlefield, the chance of encountering one outside is almost zero. There's nothing to worry about." Qin Changsheng paused and asked, "Also, what do you mean a month is almost up? They have only been in the battlefield for half a month. It's too early for you to worry now."

"Uncle Qin, that was before. Now, because of the incident in Xiaori City, I heard that the top leaders of the Level 7 Demon City in the rear have sent out a commander-level demon to search for a Nascent Soul cultivator on the battlefield due south."

Yuan Ran sighed, "Back then, shouldn't we have let our uncle-master and his men go to the battlefield in the south?"

"You are too concerned." Qin Changsheng shook his head. How come he never knew that this nephew also had the potential to be a nanny.

"I hope that I will not get into any trouble because of my concern."

Qin Changsheng didn't understand, "Yuanran, do you have a good relationship with your uncle and Gao Han?"

Yuan Ran was stunned, not quite understanding why Uncle Qin asked this.

"Why do you seem to care so much about them? Even if Uncle Zhongli is your great uncle, he has only been in the sect for a short time, right?" Qin Changsheng also thought that Yuan Ran might be resentful. After all, this nominal Uncle Zhongli was not as talented as him.

Yuan Ran smiled awkwardly and said, "Because he is my great uncle..." And Junior Brother Gao Han might also be the disciple of Senior Tian Dao, but he couldn't say that.

Qin Changsheng could see that he seemed to be hiding something, but since he didn't say it, he had no interest in asking.

"What do you mean by a month?"

"Well, Senior Brother Gao has a bet with someone..."

Yuan Ran looked at him anxiously, afraid that he would ask further questions, so should he tell it or not? Fortunately, Qin Changsheng did not ask further questions.

"If you're really worried about them, go ahead. But I think if there really is a one-month deadline, then they should be back soon. If you leave now, you might miss them."

Yuan Ran was also afraid of this. "Then I'll wait a little longer. If they don't come back in two days, I'll..."

"Yuanran, our uncle-master and the others are back." A fellow apprentice ran in excitedly.

"Uncle Qin, I'll be leaving first." Upon hearing this, Yuan Ran wanted to rush out immediately, but due to his years of education, he restrained his impulse to be rude and looked at Qin Changsheng eagerly.

Qin Changsheng waved his hands helplessly, "Go quickly."

"Thank you, Uncle Qin." Yuan Ran immediately ran after his junior brother.

Yuan Ran arrived at the city gate and just happened to see Zhongli Tingzhou and Gao Han walking in. Both of them were wearing dark clothes. From a distance, they couldn't tell how dirty they were. Only when he got closer could he smell a strong smell of blood. Their clothes were covered with dried bloodstains.

"Master Uncle, Junior Brother Gao, you are finally back."

Yuan Ran heaved a sigh of relief when he saw that they were all fine and had no missing limbs.

Gao Han nodded at him, "Thank you, Brother Yuan, for your concern."

Yuan Ran was relieved, and then asked carefully: "Have you completed your mission goal?"

Gao Han nodded again and smiled, "It's done."

After killing David, they were still short of a commander-level demon. They retreated and searched at the same time. On the last day, they finally encountered a wild one. After killing it, they were complete. The two did not stop and rushed back to Black Rock City directly.

Even though Yuan Ran was mentally prepared, he was shocked by his words and opened his mouth slightly. It took a while before he closed it. "Is it really done? Ten commander-level demons?"

Gao Han nodded patiently, "It's really done. The process was very difficult."

It was very difficult. It took them three days to find the last commander-level demon.

Yuan Ran, who was unaware of the situation, was both happy for him and deeply moved. He really did it. He was not surprised to have completed a thousand general-level monsters, but ten commander-level monsters, even if they were only in the early stages, were equivalent to crossing a major realm.

He knew that Gao Han had no need to lie, as such a lie would be exposed in an instant.
