In fact, many comics have special issues, usually with content that is unrelated to the main storyline of the comic.

This special issue of Yao Ji is somewhat related to the main storyline. The opening of this special issue is spoken by a person, and this person is an old man from the sect where the current protagonist Fanning belongs.

After Fanning and Tong Xin returned to the sect, they have been practicing and participating in sect competitions. However, the two did not return voluntarily. Fanning was drugged by Tong Xin, so he had to follow him back to the sect.

When he just came back, Fanning still had a grudge against Tong Xin. It was not until an old man in the sect said, "Okay, don't blame Tong Xin. She has her own difficulties." Only then did Fanning become normal towards Tong Xin.

This is all off topic. The beginning of this special issue is a conversation between this old man and Tong Xin. One day, Tong Xin was drinking tea with this old man. While drinking, he suddenly remembered something, "Master, why did you insist on asking me to drug Fanning and bring him back?"

Their uncle-master looked very righteous, and with that weird-looking moustache, he looked like the Taoist priest in the movie "Zombie Taoist Priest".

After hearing this, the "Taoist priest" took a sip of tea and looked into a void, as if he was recalling something.

"Blood Jade Demon Army..." He spoke slowly, "You are too young, you don't know these things, and I am not up to date either. I heard many things from my master's master..."

That’s right, this special issue tells the story of the Blood Jade Demon Army from that year through the identity of Fanning’s sect’s uncle master.

The length of the book is extremely short. It is not an exaggeration to say that it is just a small comic drawn casually by the author. However, every painting in it is so amazing that it is enough to keep people staring at it for half a day.

What is a special issue? Ji Qiu has proved with his own actions that for him, a special issue is not about the length or the plot, but about the style of painting.

The length of a comic is fixed. After all, it is mainly serialized on the app. If the length is not fixed, it will be difficult for readers to read.

However, Ji Qiu managed to create the effect of an oil painting of an ancient Greek war in such a small space... Each piece is a grand scene, with heavy ink and colors. In fact, Ji Qiu's style has always been heavy ink and colors, and is highly praised by many readers.

After all, it's a comic, and everyone knows that it's different from a picture book. Many cartoonists rely on the plot to win, and their style of painting is getting worse and worse. So it's especially difficult to meet an artist like Ji Qiu who likes heavy ink and color...

However, compared with these paintings, people realized that the comics drawn a few years ago were already masterpieces without much effort.

Every painting here can be captured at any time and used as a screensaver. Every painting makes people's blood boil. Some of them depict war scenes, which make many people dazzled. This is definitely the "Along the River During the Qingming Festival". There are at least a hundred people in one painting.

Taking each person individually can make people think of a story. The clothes, accessories and hairstyle of each person are all carefully designed. In one of the photos, humans and monsters are staring at each other on the battlefield. The monsters all look evil and charming, and their looks are quite high. Although the humans are not as good-looking as the monsters in general, the leading ones are all good-looking, and their temperament looks particularly positive.

Therefore, from the narration of the "Taoist priest" and Ji Qiu's illustrations, readers gradually learned something about the war that year. This war has not been mentioned much since the beginning of "Demon Chronicles", but now, readers have finally seen the tip of the iceberg.

In fact, it is quite normal to reveal the story at this time. Haven't you seen that many comics start to tell some previous stories after the plot develops to a certain stage? Ji Qiu's chapter is very short, and most readers are still confused and have just learned the beginning.

Many readers were already addicted, but Ji Qiu only drew so little that they couldn't continue reading.

Ji Qiu did not draw any details, but only drew how big the war was, how many people were involved, and how many people died, which could be called a meat grinder. Among them were many famous generals who became famous in that war, and he emphasized the "Blood Jade Demon Army".

The "Blood Jade Demon Army" was a team that left a deep impression on both monsters and humans during that war. The monsters in the team were all brave, resourceful, and had made a name for themselves with their own abilities. Moreover, the end of this monster army was very tragic. Although each of them was powerful, they were doing the work of a suicide squad.

The number of members in the team is unknown, and they are all practicing a kind of magic that can only be practiced by drinking human blood. This magic is very evil and can greatly enhance the strength of monsters. They can be said to be one of the monsters' ace troops. However, a few years before the end of the war, that monster army was all sacrificed, which was also part of the reason for the monsters' failure.

Here, Ji Qiu also drew illustrations of several people separately, who were the more famous people and monsters in that war. Yuan Yuanyuan recognized several of them, like the "Ruhua" who had been mentioned a few days ago. His name was "Huaxian" and in the picture, he was holding a huge brush, dressed in black, standing under a pear tree, as if he was admiring the pear blossoms.

Yuan Yuanyuan saw many people who had appeared in the group she joined. However, at this moment, she saw someone she had known before, who had appeared in a comic a long time ago.

——Ran Niang.

Huh? ! ! Yuan Yuanyuan looked at the comic and found that she was not mistaken.

Is Ran Niang actually... a spy in this war?

The illustration of Ran Niang looks very much like a spy. Her face is completely covered by big red sleeves, and not a single detail can be seen. Only one ear, as white as jade, is exposed. However, her clothes still make her recognizable at a glance, not to mention the introduction narration next to her.

Ran Niang, a rather tragic girl. Yuan Yuanyuan only knew that she was a spy who died a miserable death. Ji Qiu seemed to like this girl very much and painted the scene of her death particularly beautifully.

She didn't appear very often in the beginning, and the few times she did appear were in the voiceover, like "The battle between monsters is very cruel, and you will die if you are not careful." I only heard her name "Ran-niang" from someone's exclamation. However, this girl is quite popular in the comics, and even has a lot of peripheral products.

Even Yuan Yuanyuan has a cosplay costume that was returned.

Um...wait a minute.

Yuan Yuanyuan thought about it and felt that things... didn't seem... to be that simple.

This Ran Niang... although she is just a background character, but she appears at this moment... before she didn't know that she was a participant in this war, let alone so many messes related to this war, she didn't think much about it.

But now...why is she the only spy among so many monsters?

Yuan Yuanyuan felt that her face was as wrinkled as an old man's. She took out the picture that she had saved for a long time and compared it with Ran Niang's face in the previous issues of the comics.

...I always feel that there is a bit of similarity, mainly in temperament. They are really a bit similar. They are both gentle and beautiful with an indescribable charm. However, there is still a slight difference in their facial features.

She felt a little relieved, but then suddenly realized - damn, this guy is a spy, how could a spy face people with his real face?

When Yuan Yuanyuan felt that she was a little doubtful about her life, the comment section outside had already exploded, and countless readers left messages. Some began to praise Ji Qiu's painting skills crazily, and some began to ask Ji Qiu who the big boss Yuan was, and which big boss survived the war that year.

【Ahhhhhhhhhhhhh, it must be the painting fairy, right? ! ! It must be the painting fairy! 】

[What did I say?! In that publication, what Yuan drank was definitely blood. Whose wine is that color? It’s also wine.]

[No... I don't understand! This person is a monster that uses human blood to cultivate, so why would he help humans? This person is a spy! He is ruthless and has experienced war. He is definitely not an ordinary person.]

[I think instead of thinking about this... it's better to think about why Yuan survived... how he survived. ]

Yuan Yuanyuan read the comments. The readers were always very good at grasping the key points. She looked at Ran Niang and wondered if she was "Yi Qi"...

She thought about it, turned on her phone, and sent a message to the three-person group, "Boss, is that Ran Niang Yiqi?"

"Who?" asked the group leader.

"She's from the latest issue of Monster Chronicles. She appeared in the previous issues and there was a frontal photo of her."

"Ran Niang? Sounds familiar. I haven't seen it yet. Wait for me." The group leader disappeared for a while after saying this, leaving Yuan Yuanyuan alone waiting.

After a while, the group leader suddenly popped up again, "It's Yiqi, isn't this what he looks like after putting on makeup?"

"Hmm...wait a minute?" Yuan Yuanyuan said, "What? Makeup? Those previous photos of him looked so feminine...and they weren't even makeup?!"

"No, he looked like that originally, but he just liked to wear makeup." The group leader said, "On the day he was killed, he was wearing makeup. It was snowing under a plum tree."

"…Why does he put on makeup?" Yuan Yuanyuan complained silently, "Doesn't he know that he looks feminine with makeup on?"

"He... actually supports you. You'll know if you read more of his biography." The group leader said, "Oh, by the way, I forgot to mention one thing. I'm going to City C in a few days. I just told my family and they agreed. Remember to pick me up then."
