Deep in the demon battlefield, in the Demon City thousands of miles away, the angry roar of the city lord suddenly came out.

"Who killed my son?"

The citizens of the entire Demon City were frightened by the extremely angry roar of their city lord. A terrifying pressure spread in all directions at the same time, frightening some weaker demons so much that they fell to their knees with a thud, and their knees were almost broken.

The subordinates of the Demon City Lord all showed shocked expressions. How was it possible that the young master was dead? Didn’t he go to explore the Shuangdong Secret Realm?

In order to allow the young master to walk freely in the Shuangdong Secret Realm, the city lord also equipped him with six commander-level demons, two of whom are demons at the level of great perfection.

The human cultivators who entered the secret realm were at most in the Jindan stage. Even if they were in the Jindan Great Perfection stage, it would be almost impossible to kill the young master, unless the human cultivators joined forces.

However, the possibility of this situation is a little small. As far as they know, the relationship between the major sects of human cultivators is not as peaceful as it seems, but this possibility cannot be ruled out.

The city lord rushed out and headed towards the Shuangdong Secret Realm with murderous intent, but was stopped by his men. Even though the other party was his confidant, his face was extremely gloomy.

"Get out of the way! I'm going to kill the thief who killed my son!"

"City Lord, please think twice. Not to mention that the secret realm has not yet been opened, if you act without authorization, the humans will definitely react. What if the strong humans use this as an excuse to attack you? What will you do to the people in the city? There is no rush to find the murderer. Going there now will give the strong humans time to react."

The confidant risked his life to advise the city lord. He knew that the city lord would hardly listen to anything he said now, and he also knew that the young master was the city lord's favorite. But the matter was of great importance, and he had to stop the city lord even if he died.

Of course the city lord knew it, but when he thought of his only son who died in the Shuangdong Secret Realm, he could not control his reason, and the pressure on him became extremely violent.

The confidant had never seen such a scary city lord. He blocked the city lord head-on and almost bore most of the pressure. With a plop, he knelt on the ground and said, "City lord, even if it's for the sake of the young master, please calm down. The next opening of the Twin Caves Secret Realm is still about 20 days away. We will take a long-term view and will definitely be in a hurry."

"I'll listen to you for now. When the Twin Caves Secret Realm opens next time, I'll make that man pay back a hundredfold!" The city lord's face was ferocious, and his eyes were extremely cold as he looked towards the direction of the secret realm.

The confidant heaved a sigh of relief.

…

After Gao Han and Zhongli Tingzhou dealt with the scene, they took Chang Xiaoxiao and the others away, leaving behind seven corpses of demons. The strong smell of blood also attracted some monsters.

By the time the demons passing by discovered the abnormality here, one or two corpses had been bitten beyond recognition by the monsters, but they could still recognize the identities of the corpses from the clothes they wore.

"It's Saroyan. He is dead. Who killed him?" Several demons felt incredible.

During this trip to the Twin Caves Secret Realm, they all agreed that the demon least likely to cause trouble was Saroyan.

"Who else could it be except a human monk? I don't know which human monk it was who could kill Saroyan, who had six commander-level guards. We must have encountered a powerful human opponent this time."

They had no dealings with Saroyan, and Saroyan was not very talented or strong. He liked to show off his status as the son of the city lord. They didn't feel anything when he died.

There were also demons who didn't care, "What are you afraid of? There must be more than one human monk who killed Saroyan. If the other party launches a sneak attack, it is not impossible for Saroyan to be killed. Look at the traces at the scene. Although some of them are covered by demon beasts, you can still see that there are at least six or seven people."

"That's true. It's none of our business anyway. Saroyan died because he was unlucky."

"Let's go quickly. A treasure has been revealed in the east. If we don't go now, someone else will get there first and we won't get a share." A demon urged.

Everyone agreed and were about to leave when a young demon suddenly stopped them and said, "Wait, let's take Saroyan's body away as well."

"Why put it away? If he dies, he dies."

The young demon's eyes flashed, and he said calculatingly: "Once Saroyan dies, his father will definitely be furious. He may have already rushed here. We can give Saroyan's body to him and win his favor. You know, Saroyan's father is the lord of a third-level city."

The other demons' eyes lit up. "You think too much. Let's collect the other corpses as well. Saroyan's father might be able to get information about the human monks who killed them from these corpses. Then we will be the heroes."

The demons immediately put the corpses into the storage space. Their storage space was not large, so it was more than enough to store one corpse.

…

"Brother Yuan sent a distress signal before?" On the way to the place where the monsters were rioting, Gao Han heard Chang Xiaoxiao's words and felt a little suspicious.

He gave the communication jade slip to Yuan Ran because he wanted him to notify them when he encountered a crisis. If it really came to this, he should use the communication jade slip instead of a signal.

Thinking of this, Gao Han said to them: "You must have made a mistake. The signal he sent should be a gathering signal."

Everyone was stunned. Was this the signal to assemble?

Senior Brothers Zhao and Chen suddenly remembered that they did not actually look carefully at the signal they saw in the chaos and mistook it for a distress signal. However, given Senior Brother Yuan's strength, it should be impossible for him to ask for help, not to mention that he was with three fellow disciples.

"Maybe it really was a gathering signal. In fact, we didn't look at it very carefully. There were many signals sent at that time." The two brothers said shyly.

As for counting on Chang Xiaoxiao and Tian Yijun and the others, forget it. The two of them probably don't even know the difference between a distress signal and an assembly signal.

Gao Han hummed, "Brother Yuan suddenly asked us to gather over there. It should be related to the monster riot and the appearance of the treasure. There are many forces competing for the treasure this time. The treasure is probably extraordinary, so they asked us to gather over there."

"Uncle Gao, why do you call Yuanran Senior Brother?" Chang Xiaoxiao wanted to ask just now.

"Stupid, calling Yuanran "Junior Brother" will expose your identity." Tian Yijun rolled his eyes.

"Oh, that's right." Chang Xiaoxiao laughed, "Then should we go over and meet up with Yuan Ran?"

"Of course, but we can't go there openly. Everyone is watching nearby right now. We will be targeted as soon as we show up. The fewer competitors there are, the better it is for them. Maybe a demon has already ambushed at one of the entrances." Gao Han said.

"It's okay. With the two uncles here, even if more people ambush us, they are no match for us." Chang Xiaoxiao flattered loudly.

The others also nodded, as if they had found their backbone. No matter what he said, they had no objection. It was much better than wandering around in the secret realm on their own.

Zhongli Tingzhou sneered, calling them a bunch of lackeys. Then the biggest lackey immediately squeezed next to Gao Han and said, "Let's go."

The few people who were pushed aside didn't dare to say a word and followed them silently.

The closer to the cliff, the more monsters there were. The roars of Jindan monsters could be heard from afar. Several powerful Jindan monsters were fighting fiercely, occasionally shaking the ground. The weaker monsters didn't dare to get close, even though the Qiming Jiuguangzhi was equally attractive to them.

The dense jungle was fraught with many unknown dangers. Everyone groped their way forward from all directions, then crawled on the ground, secretly observing the several Jindan monsters fighting under the cliff.

A Jindan monster was the first to be eliminated. It was torn apart by two powerful monsters. Its stomach was opened and its internal organs were visible. It dragged its body and fled in a hurry.

When the human monks and demons in the dark saw this, some of them quietly followed to take advantage of the situation. As more people tried to take advantage of the situation, they started fighting again.

In the end, both sides almost suffered losses, so the others learned their lesson. It was not worth it to throw away the opportunity to obtain the Seven-Ming Nine-Guangzhi for a golden elixir monster.

The major forces were not allocated many places. Like the Jishang Sect, they were allocated ten places at one time. Even the demons could not do that. The most they got were the seven demon young masters killed by Zhongli Tingzhou.

Once, relying on the large number of people, Chai Chengyun of the Ji Shang Sect sent several disciples to intercept and kill the defeated and fleeing Jindan monster. However, they were ambushed by the monster and almost died. After that, Chai Chengyun did not dare to send people out at will anymore.

They now have a huge advantage. If they can maintain this advantage, they may have a chance to become the biggest winner in the end. The only sect that has the power to compete with them is the Zixiao Sect.

"Where are the people from Zixiao Sect now?" Chai Chengyun asked.

"They should be watching nearby. They can endure it. Before, several groups of people went out to snatch the injured Jindan monsters, but they didn't send anyone out." Zhang Mingyang explained.

Chai Chengyun connected it to the signal Yuan Ran had sent out before, "It's not necessarily that they can't bear it, it's more likely that they haven't gathered all their manpower yet."

"However, those women from the Fairy Sect seem to be cooperating with the Purple Sky Sect."

"Kong Fengjun? She actually has a plan. She actually formed an alliance with Zixiao Sect." Chai Chengyun's face was gloomy.

"Brother Liang, shouldn't we also find someone to cooperate with us? Otherwise, if a real fight breaks out, our advantage will turn into a disadvantage." Zhang Mingyang said worriedly.

The Ji Shang Sect has more disciples. Except for one who died in the previous monster riot, there are nine people left. However, it is still nearly twice as many as other sects. If someone attacks secretly, it is not impossible.

Chai Chengyun also thought about this question, "Who do you think is better to find?"

"There are only three people left in Qixing Valley. The group of beast trainers in Baiyun Valley have the help of demon beasts, which is a potential trouble. Moreover, they are full and unreduced. The Demon Sect will definitely not cooperate. That leaves only Dan Sect, and they only have four people left."

As a result, before they could find the four people from Danmen, Liang Muheng from Qixing Valley came to them first and wanted to cooperate with them.

"You actually plan to cooperate with us?" Chai Chengyun was very suspicious. He didn't believe that Liang Muheng didn't know that they had more people and there were only three people left in Qixing Valley. Even if they got the Qiming Jiuguangzhi in the end, Qixing Valley would not have a chance of winning. And as far as he knew, Qixing Valley also had elders who needed the Qiming Jiuguangzhi to save their lives.
