Not long after Gu Yao and his companions left, another group of monks came. At first, they were careless. With the Third Elder’s move, they thought it was easy to capture the enemy. Some of them followed to see Bai Qing’s joke. They were so ridiculous that they ended up being held hostage.
But halfway through the flight, they received a message from the family. They didn’t take it seriously at first, but after reading the message, they were all shocked. The message said that the soul tablet left by the Third Elder in the family was broken. They could hardly believe what they saw with their consciousness. That was a combined elder. Who in the East Province had the ability to wipe out a combined monk?
After they came to their senses, they rushed to the scene of the incident at lightning speed. They only saw the unconscious miners and Bai Qing, as well as... minced meat and corpses. When they realized who the minced meat belonged to, several young masters and young ladies who were weak in psychological endurance almost vomited on the spot, and their faces turned pale.
The monk who led the team couldn't believe what he saw, and hurriedly asked someone to wake up Bai Qing and ask him who the third elder was.
Bai Qing was trembling all over when he woke up. Fortunately, he was not really scared and confused. He just didn't want to recall the previous scene. Once he recalled it, he felt like he was about to fall into an endless bloody hell, and hands kept reaching out to drag him down and sink together.
The monk leading the team slapped Bai Qing to wake him up, and Bai Qing cried, describing the previous scene while crying.
"A good-looking monk?"
"He used a wooden mallet to beat the third elder to death? The mallet turned into a skull?"
These people quickly took Bai Qing back to the tribe, and called out the first and second elders who were in seclusion, and had an in-depth discussion around the contents of Bai Qing's confession.
"Bai Qing said that the Third Elder said one word before he died: blood." The Great Elder's pupils shrank. He never thought that the Third Elder would be killed in seclusion, and even Yuan Ying could not escape. According to Bai Qing, the Third Elder was unable to fight back against the strange monk. Adding the word "blood", the Great Elder thought of a possibility, "Could it be the evil monk who had long disappeared in the spirit world and rebelled against the Buddhist sect?"
"Blood-slaughtering Demon Monk?!"
When the Great Elder mentioned it, the others also thought of this person. They were shocked when the name came out: "How did our Bai family lure out this person?"
"No, this demon monk is still alive and well?"
He was a famous figure many years ago. His name in the world of cultivation could stop children from crying at night. Not only did he betray the Buddhist sect and devote himself to the path of evil, he also slaughtered thousands of cultivators, creating a strong smell of blood that the cultivators who went to check on him could not forget for a long time. You should know that none of the dead cultivators had poor cultivation, and the weakest one had a level of refining emptiness.
In that massacre, the demon monk was completely transformed into a meat grinder, a machine that only knew how to kill. His snow-white robe was completely soaked in blood, and he looked extremely weird. In the direction he left, the blood dripping from his robe stayed for a long distance. You could follow the direction of the blood and find the whereabouts of the demon monk, but no one dared to chase him.
For many years, there has been no news about this evil monk in the spirit world. Some people say that this evil monk has killed countless people and must have died under the heavenly calamity. Others say that the evil monk is too powerful and may have ascended to the demon world. Therefore, the Bai family members present have only seen and heard about the legend of the evil monk in the records or the elders, but they did not expect that he would appear in Dongzhou and kill a combined elder of the Bai family as soon as he appeared.
"Could it be that we are wrong? Some cultivators like to be mysterious and pursue a vague reputation, whether it is a bad reputation or a good reputation. Maybe it is just a mentally ill person who wants to create a sensation by relying on the reputation of the evil monk." Don't be so scary, it must be fake.
"What if it's true? Would a monk who could easily defeat the Third Elder be an unknown person in the spirit world? Have you heard of such a monk before? And he is also a demon monk like the demon monk."
The most troublesome thing is that the Bai family still doesn't know why the demon monk came. If he came for Bai Yun or something left by the Bai family's ancestors, can the current Bai family stop him?
They discussed it over and over again, and first ruled out the first possibility. If he really came for Bai Yun, why didn't the demon monk show up for so many years and had to wait until now?
“I think the most likely possibility is that the evil monk is stuck at the moment of ascension and cannot leave our spiritual world, so he has set his sights on our Bai family, for the sake of the treasure left by the Bai family’s ancestors.”
The word “treasure” made the hearts of those present skip a beat. Who would not be tempted? In fact, they have always suspected that the Bai family’s direct descendants actually kept something in their hands, but refused to hand it over. Of course, the things passed down from their ancestors have been enough for the Bai family to be passed down in Dongzhou for a long time, and they are still enjoying the benefits of their ancestors, but they still cannot control their greed.
The two ancestors ascended together, so there are rumors that the ancestors have the secret technique of ascension, and as long as you get it, you will definitely ascend. The Bai family treats this as a joke, because they have also checked countless data and think that this secret technique is nonsense. The ancestors ascended by their own strength.
But now the blood-slaying demon monk has been dispatched, maybe there is really something good, not necessarily the secret technique of ascension, but it is also closely related to ascension. When there is a further opportunity in front of them, how many people can resist reaching out?
"Why don't we find someone to contact that senior first? We can give him whatever he wants?"
"There is another way. That is to send the news of the appearance of the Blood-Slaughtering Demon Monk to the demon cultivators and see how they react. Maybe they can help us..." The second elder made a "click" gesture.
The Great Elder nodded: "You can give it a try. You also have to keep a close eye on Bai Yun. It was a big mistake to let him have contact with outsiders last time. This time, no matter what, we must make him willingly dedicate his life to our Bai family."
"Yes, Great Elder, we will hurry up and do it."
Gu Yao and Chi Changye did not want to find out what the monk's name was. They also heard the Third Elder spit out the word "blood" at the end. Even if they knew how much trouble his identity would cause if it was exposed, there was no point in worrying because they could not get rid of the monk unless the monk himself wanted to leave.
The two of them felt that they had a broken jar mentality now. Since they were following, they might as well get as many benefits as possible, such as watching the monks fight and gaining some insights, or snatching the storage ring of the fusion monk.
Gu Yao happily counted the supplies in the storage ring of the third elder of the Bai family, smiling: "The fusion monk is really amazing. We have never obtained so many top-grade spirit stones. The two of us, plus the baby Mo Yu, have been digging for so long, but we still haven't dug up so many top-grade
spirit stones. After leaving the battle site, Zizi and Moyu spit out the top-grade spirit stones to Guyao, and Guyao let them keep the rest. The four of them only dug up a few hundred top-grade spirit stones, most of which were the work of Zizi and Moyu, while the three elders contributed thousands of top-grade spirit stones alone, and the top-grade spirit stones piled up into a mountain in the storage ring.
When Guyao just finished looking at the storage ring, a thought came to his mind: We're rich! They really made a fortune this time!
No wonder so many cultivators in the cultivation world are unwilling to earn spiritual stones diligently, but go to rob their fellows. This method really makes money faster, but if you often walk by the river, you may become the target of robbery one day, and your life will be lost in the hands of others and become someone else's wedding dress.
Chi Changye smiled and rubbed Gu Yao's head. At this moment, Gu Yao was like a fox that stole the chicken. Well, this time it was indeed the biggest unexpected fortune they got, but it was a pity that they got it with the help of the monk, and the monk looked down on it. Next time they will have to rely on their own strength.
The battle that day left a lot of insights for Gu Yao and Chi Changye. They absorbed and digested it all the way. When they arrived at another city, they felt very rewarding.
Along the way, they did not encounter many obstacles. They had been secretly watching them, but later they withdrew. Obviously, the death of the combined elder shocked a large number of people.
The city they came to now, although it was also a coexistence of humans and demons, was dominated by demon cultivators. It can be said that this place has reached the border of the deep demon cultivation territory. Going forward, there are fewer and fewer places that human cultivators can reach. Many demon cultivation territories do not welcome human cultivators.
As soon as they appeared, they attracted countless eyes. It was eye-catching enough. Now because the third elder of the Bai family died in their hands, it aroused everyone's curiosity and attention. There were even some specious news circulating in secret. Whether it was human or demon, they were all curious creatures, and cultivation could not change it.
Being stared at by so many people, Gu Yao felt his scalp tingling. Chi Changye had a stern face the whole time, but in fact, there was a hint of unhappiness underneath his face. The only one who could remain calm was the monk himself, who walked and knocked the wooden fish.
Gu Yao tried to negotiate: "Can't you hide your identity?"
The monk replied with a nice smile.
Well, Gu Yao knew that there was no way to negotiate, so he walked in with his head held high despite all the stares.
As soon as they left, the monks behind them immediately started gossiping with shining eyes.
What was even more incredible was that when the news came, it felt like a rumor. How could the third elder of the Bai family die at the hands of an unknown boy? You know, because of this, many monks went to buy photo stones, wanting to know what these two people looked like, and the monk who was with them.
Now that I have seen it clearly, I am a little disappointed.
"They don't look like people who can kill the combined monks. Aren't those two guys just at the Lianxu level?"
"Isn't there a monk? What kind of strength does that monk have? Can you sense it?"
"It seems so. That monk seems to be an ordinary person. Either he is really ordinary or he is very powerful. Have you heard that the blood-slaying demon monk who disappeared in the spirit world many years ago has reappeared and it seems that he has set his sights on the Bai family this time. It's impossible..."
