A Demon’s Path

Chapter 423 Hostage

When Yue Xianan and the leaders of the gods and soul sects returned to the back mountain of Zoucheng, there was no one there except for a lonely pagoda that looked like a tower of gods and demons.

If it weren't for the traces of magma flowing all over the ground, they might have the illusion that nothing happened.

However, even if they want to forget it deliberately, they can't forget it.

Ling Xiao had left too deep an impression on them, and this impression was unforgettable and indelible.

They made a rough count themselves, and out of the more than 20,000 spirit masters who came here, only a mere 2,000 were able to return alive.

Thousands died at Xiao Beimin's hands, while tens of thousands died at Ling Xiao's hands!

If they hadn't found out that Ling Xiao hadn't chased after them, felt that something was wrong, and hadn't heard anything after waiting for a day, they still wouldn't dare to come here to find out what happened.

Yue Xianan added his pagoda, with a lifeless face, only uttered three words: "He's gone."

Everyone thought to themselves, Yue Xia Nan didn't even want to mention Ling Xiao's name, which showed how much he hated Ling Xiao.

Although they all wanted Ling Xiao to die, no one dared to mention Ling Xiao at this moment. They knew in their hearts that even if they didn't mention it, Yue Xia Nan would never let Ling Xiao go.

"Li Qingxuan, I heard that there is a woman surnamed Ling in Xihe City who has a very good relationship with him, so I will arrest that woman surnamed Ling for me." Yue Xianan said coldly: "There is also Chen Xu, the young owner of Chen Ji Shop, and A female slave named Chen Lan was killed casually."

When Li Qingxuan was hesitating, Yue Xianan added: "After this is done, you will be the messenger of the Tower of Gods and Demons, and the magic weapon of this Tower of Gods and Demons will be given to you."

Li Qingxuan took the pagoda waved by Yue Xianan, ecstatic in his heart, and bowed respectfully towards Yue Xianan: "Thank you, sir!"

Yue Xia Nan didn't say anything else, and with the hundreds of purple soul guards with him, he disappeared in front of everyone in a blink of an eye.

All the prominent figures sent by the spirit sects to be the judges of this son-in-law competition also left one after another, only Zou Bolang, Zou Jun and his son, and Zou Bo stayed here.

"I didn't expect that Ling Xiao would be so strong." Zou Bolang shook his head helplessly: "Fortunately, we didn't betray him this time, otherwise, our Zou family would be in trouble."

Zou Jun didn't take Ling Xiao seriously at first, but he didn't really admit that Ling Xiao did have the capital to be wanted by the Tower of Gods and Demons until he saw that scene with his own eyes yesterday.

"Father, what if he thinks we betrayed him?" Zou Jun couldn't help worrying.

Zou Bolang suddenly smiled, and patted Zou Jun on the shoulder: "Don't worry, with your daughter Zou Wei here, our Zou family will be fine."

Zou Wei was hiding in her room and sighing, the figure of Ling Xiao who was holding the God of Slayer kept circling in her mind.

"It's rare for a man to be so affectionate..." Although Zou Wei had been thinking about her lover all the time, but now that she knew that his lover was dead, her thoughts changed unconsciously.

At this time, the man she was thinking about was pretending to be an ordinary soul master, walking peacefully on a path.

He took out a crystal bead and said slowly: "Yuxuan..."

"No need to say more." Long Yuxuan immediately interrupted Ling Xiao: "I will protect those people for you, 10,000 topaz per day."

Ling Xiao smiled wryly, this woman is really too smart, but the asking price is too harsh.

"I can't afford the price at that time, can I mortgage you?" Ling Xiao laughed at himself, and it could be seen that he had now walked out of the shadow of Xiao Beimin's departure.

It is useless to complain about yourself, the only thing Ling Xiao needs to do now is to avenge Xiao Beimin, so he quickly and deliberately forget everything that happened yesterday.

Of course, while taking revenge, Ling Xiao still arranges the escape path of the person he is close with first. He doesn't want to hurt his friend, and Long Yuxuan is his best entrusted person.

"Your worth is too high now, I don't dare to take it." Long Yuxuan glanced at Ling Xiao contemptuously: "When you can stand in front of me alive, I can consider giving you a discount... by the way , Wu Mei said you are a whore, let me be more careful about you."

Ling Xiao chuckled, he knew that what he had to confess was almost done, and now it was time for his revenge plan to begin.

Ling Xiao can't use Tushen now, so he can't go around killing people with Tushen like Xiao Beimin did.

But he has another method of killing that Xiao Beimin doesn't know, poisoning.

"Green basket soul-destroying incense, once this poison is burned into smoke, even a purple-level chain soul master will be poisoned and die without precaution. Wherever the poisonous fog goes, corpses are scattered all over the field, not a single blade of grass grows, and no dog or dog is left behind." ! The ingredients are aconitum, crane top, ten thousand-year human-faced spider venom, nine-headed black ice snake gall, eight-clawed lizard, black-skinned toad..."

In Ling Xiao's mind, he thought of the green bamboo soul-snatching incense, which is the fifth of the top ten poisons in the Amakusa Compendium. This kind of poison is used to kill people on a large scale, and it is absolutely perfect.

Ling Xiao searched all the medicinal materials on his body, and contacted the ancestor of the Seven Demons, and finally confirmed that he only needed to find the Wannian Human Face Spider and the Nine-Headed Black Ice Snake to prepare all the medicinal materials.

"The ten-thousand-year human-faced spider exists on the locust mountain of the monster clan, and the nine-headed black ice snake gall is in the ice sea of ​​the monster clan..." The phantom of the ancestor of the seven demons that appeared in front of Ling Xiao paused for a moment, and suddenly Hehe smiled and said, "Where is Qianjueyin?"

Ling Xiao rolled her eyes: "Zou Wei has promised to get the Qianjueyin for me, and I can take it when I can see her conveniently."

Ling Xiao didn't tell the truth.

The Qianjueyin happened to be the treasure that Zou Wei carried with her. She heard that Ling Xiao needed this treasure, and she had already given the Qianjueyin to Ling Xiao before she walked out of Zou Wei's room.

After Ling Xiao knew the usefulness of Qianjueyin, she already had her own plan in mind, so she just took advantage of the opportunity of revealing her identity to shirk it.

The patriarch of the Seven Demons didn't suspect anything at all. After all, he secretly monitored Ling Xiao and knew that Ling Xiao hadn't really married Zou Wei, so his identity was exposed.

"The six senior brothers of yours are probably about to complete the task, I hope you can be faster than them." The ancestor of the Seven Demons didn't seem to be in a hurry, and said lightly.

"Li Qingxuan is Li Xuanyi from Yaotian Continent in the past. If you are still interested in taking revenge, you can seek him out." Before leaving, Ling Xiao suddenly said such a sentence.

The patriarch of the Seven Demons laughed dryly: "I know what you mean, if you don't get rid of this person, you will feel uneasy! But I think it's not a bad thing for you to feel a sense of crisis if you keep him."

"Peril your sister!" Ling Xiao secretly scolded the ancestor of the Seven Demons in her heart, and snorted coldly with disdain: "Master, I'm leaving."

After all, Ling Xiao cut off the connection with the ancestor of the seven demons, and headed towards the locust mountain of the demon clan.

In the hall on the top floor of the Xihe Chamber of Commerce in Xihe City, Chen Xu looked anxious and was about to go out of the hall, but was stopped by Ah Ji.

Long Yuxuan said coldly: "I promised Ling Xiao to protect you, but you have to leave by yourself. If you walk out of the Xihe Chamber of Commerce, you will definitely die, so it's none of my business."

Chen Xu, who has always been calm, was so flustered, which really made Ling Shiyu on the side puzzled.

After receiving a letter, Chen Xu, who was still fine, immediately became like this. It seems that everything is still related to the letter he received.

"Something happened to my father. Those guys said that if I don't show up within ten days, they will send the body to Xihe City!" Chen Xu gritted his teeth and said, "Those despicable guys dare not come here, and they can't find him." Senior Ling, to resort to such indecent means, it's thanks to them being spirit masters!"

Long Yuxuan slowly stood up from her seat: "I have never been divided into soul masters and demon soul masters. In my opinion, everyone is just for a good word. So, you don't need to be so excited .”

"Young master, let me save the master." Ah Ji, who was wearing a cloak, suddenly said, "Let me dress up as you, they might not recognize you."

Although Ah Ji is Chen Xu's bodyguard, Chen Xu treats Ah Ji like a brother. Seeing that Ah Ji is about to risk his life, he quickly shook his head: "No..."

Snapped! Ah Ji shot out suddenly, and slammed Chen Xu's neck, causing Chen Xu to faint.

Ah Ji carefully handed Chen Xu to Chen Lan: "Take care of the young master for me, thank you."

Chen Lan didn't say much, and nodded calmly: "Go."

Without the slightest hesitation, Ah Ji immediately turned around and left.

Long Yuxuan's beautiful eyes moved slightly, showing appreciation. However, she didn't have any intention of stopping Ah Ji.

Ah Ji had just walked out of the Xihe Chamber of Commerce, when he ran into an unexpected acquaintance: "Shang Ziheng? What are you doing here?"

Seeing that it was Ah Ji, Shang Ziheng smiled wryly and said, "We don't have any news about Uncle Thirteen. I'm worried about him, and I'm so bored, so I came here to get some air. I know he has a very good relationship with the president here. Okay, so I want the president to pass on a message for me..."

Ah Ji was in a hurry and was in no mood to pay attention to Shang Ziheng: "Then go on your own, I don't have time now!"

Seeing Ah Ji walking in such a hurry, Shang Zi couldn't help being curious. When he learned from Ling Shiyu that Aji had gone to save his father for Chen Xu, he couldn't help being aroused in his heart: "It's unreasonable, those guys are really despicable! Tell me quickly, where brother Aji went , I'll help him!"

Ling Shiyu shook her head: "It's too dangerous..."

"Shenjia'ao, Ludang Mountain." Long Yuxuan's voice came from behind Ling Shiyu, and Shang Ziheng nodded: "Thank you, President Long!"

Shang Ziheng left as he said, and quickly left the Xihe Chamber of Commerce.

Ling Shiyu looked at Long Yuxuan in surprise, and said, "Ling Xiao wouldn't want him to take risks."

Long Yuxuan snorted coldly: "What do you know? Don't you know what Shang Ziheng said just now? He said that Min Tianqi, the master of Haotian sect, can protect Ling Xiao's friends who are already in their Haotian sect. However, Ling Xiao still has friends that he hasn't found in time, so he won't help him."

Ling Shiyu's eyebrows were huddled together, and she looked puzzled: "What do you mean? Is he scared?"

Long Yuxuan said in a deep voice: "Yes, Min Tianqi is scared. He wants to stay out of the matter, but I won't let him do so. Shang Ziheng is an elite disciple of Haotianzong. If he gets involved in Ah Ji's matter... silly Woman, take your time to think about it yourself!"

Ling Shiyu is not stupid, but just doesn't want to think things too complicated.

After Long Yuxuan said this, Ling Shiyu realized that Long Yuxuan looked extremely indifferent, but she was thinking of everything for Ling Xiao. On the contrary, it's me who can't do anything except become Ling Xiao's burden.

No wonder Ling Xiao followed Long Yuxuan without hesitation that night. Long Yuxuan was Ling Xiao's real helper, a virtuous wife.

Ling Shiyu sighed helplessly, she couldn't help with anything, she could only silently pray for Ling Xiao in her heart, praying for Ling Xiao's good fortune.
