Let you be a good grandson, you raise a group of banshees?

The old man raised his hand to stop Lu Yuan's impulsive behavior and said in a deep voice: "Disciple, be patient. That demon is quite powerful and has many tricks. If you go there rashly, you might fall into his trap."

"But..." Lu Yuan wanted to refute eagerly, but he didn't know how to refute. He was so anxious that he wanted to grow wings and fly to Xiaoqing immediately.

The old man saw Lu Yuan's worry, sighed and said: "Master has already calculated Xiaoqing's location. She is now trapped deep in the Demon Forest. Disciple, please follow me."

After saying this, the old man soared into the air and turned into a stream of light and flew away into the distance.

Lu Yuan did not dare to delay and hurriedly followed.

The Demon Forest is located on the edge of the continent. It is shrouded in thick fog and filled with miasma all year round. Various ferocious monsters lurk in it. It is a dangerous place where few people go.

Lu Yuan followed the old man and sped all the way. All he saw along the way were eerie and terrifying scenes that made him shudder.

"Master, this Demon Forest is so dangerous, Xiaoqing..." Lu Yuan was extremely worried. He couldn't imagine how the weak Xiaoqing could survive in such a place.

The old man seemed to see through Lu Yuan's thoughts and comforted him, "Don't worry, disciple. The devil kidnapped Xiaoqing not to harm her, but for other purposes."

"Any other intentions?" Lu Yuan was puzzled.

"That's right." The old man nodded. "The technique that the demon is practicing requires absorbing the essence of a pure Yin body in order to break through the bottleneck, and Xiaoqing happens to be a pure Yin body."

"What?!" Lu Yuan was shocked when he heard this, "Doesn't that mean Xiaoqing..."

He didn't dare to think further, his heart was filled with fear and anger.

"Don't worry, my disciple." The old man said, "I have found the hiding place of the devil. Let's go and rescue Xiaoqing now."

After saying that, the old man quickened his speed and flew towards the depths of the Demon Forest.

Soon, the two came to a gloomy castle.

The castle was completely dark, emitting a suffocating evil atmosphere. The surrounding trees were withered and dead, as if all the vitality had been sucked out of them.

"This is it." The old man pointed at the castle and said, "The devil is inside."

Lu Yuan looked at the ancient castle in front of him and felt a chill in his heart.

"Disciple, please wait here. I will go in and take a look," said the old man.

"Master, let me go in with you!" Lu Yuan said quickly, "I'm worried about your safety."

The old man shook his head and said, "No need, disciple. That demon is very powerful. You will die in vain if you go in. Please wait here. I will be back soon."

After saying that, the old man turned into a golden light and flew into the castle.

Lu Yuan stood outside the castle, waiting anxiously.

Time passed by minute by minute, but there was still no movement in the castle.

Lu Yuan felt more and more uneasy. He had a vague feeling that things were not that simple.

Suddenly, a deafening noise was heard from the castle, followed by a powerful energy wave spreading from the castle.

Lu Yuan's face changed drastically. He knew that his master must have been fighting with the devil.

"Master!" Lu Yuan shouted anxiously. He could no longer hold back and turned into a stream of light, rushing into the castle.

The castle was in a mess, with traces of battle everywhere.

Lu Yuan saw his master at a glance. At this moment, the old man was being suppressed by a man in a black robe with a ferocious face.

"Master!" Lu Yuan shouted and rushed forward.

"Disciple, run!" The old man saw this and shouted, "You are no match for him!"

"Want to leave? Not that easy!" The black-robed man sneered and raised his hand to slap Lu Yuan. Lu Yuan didn't dare to take it head-on and quickly dodged.

"Hmph, you overestimate your own abilities!" The man in black robe snorted coldly and launched another attack.

While dodging the attack from the man in black robe, Lu Yuan was looking for Xiaoqing.

Suddenly, he saw a familiar figure tied to a pillar.

"Xiaoqing!" Lu Yuan felt a pain in his heart. He finally found Xiaoqing.

Xiaoqing was in tattered clothes, pale, and breathing weakly at this time. It was obvious that she had suffered a lot of torture.

"Xiaoqing, how are you?" Lu Yuan asked anxiously.

Xiao Qing opened her eyes weakly and saw Lu Yuan. A relieved smile appeared on her face: "Lu Yuan, you are here..."

"Don't be afraid, I'll save you right now!" Lu Yuan said, and was about to step forward to untie the ropes on Xiaoqing.

"Want to save her? You have to get past me first!" The man in black robe stood in front of Lu Yuan and said jokingly.

A cold light flashed in Lu Yuan's eyes: "Then let me see what you are capable of!"

After saying that, Lu Yuan circulated his true energy, preparing for a decisive battle with the man in black robe.

The cold light in Lu Yuan's eyes was like two sharp swords, piercing the black-robed man. This cold light contained not only murderous intent, but also worry about Xiaoqing, concern for his master, and anger at his own incompetence.

"Just you? You are a brat, and you dare to shout in front of me?" The man in black robe sneered disdainfully, his eyes full of contempt. He didn't take Lu Yuan seriously at all. In his eyes, Lu Yuan was just an ant that could be crushed to death with a casual kick.

Lu Yuan ignored the black-robed man's ridicule. He took a deep breath and circulated his internal energy to the extreme. He knew that he could not lose this battle, and he could not afford to lose.

"Xiaoqing, wait for me!" Lu Yuan growled, his figure flashed, turned into a shadow, and rushed towards the man in black robe.

"You don't know your own limitations!" The man in black robe sneered and raised his hand to slap him.

This palm seemed to be understated, but it contained the power to destroy the heavens and the earth. The palm wind whistled, and the space was shaking, as if it was going to tear Lu Yuan into pieces.

Lu Yuan didn't dare to take it head-on and quickly dodged.

"boom!"

The palm strike missed, leaving a huge deep pit on the ground, with gravel flying everywhere and dust filling the air.

Lu Yuan was secretly shocked. The strength of this man in black robe was far beyond his imagination.

"Boy, if you have any skills, just use them!" the man in black robe said proudly, his eyes full of mockery.

Lu Yuan didn't say anything. He took a deep breath again and circulated the Qi in his body to the extreme. He knew that he had to go all out to have a chance of survival.

Lu Yuan's figure flashed again, turning into a shadow and rushing towards the man in black robe. This time, his speed was faster and his attack was more fierce.

"A mere trifle!" The man in black robe snorted coldly and raised his hand to strike again.

"boom!"

There was another loud bang, and Lu Yuan was blown away again, spurting out blood from his mouth.

"Lu Yuan!" Xiao Qing shouted anxiously when she saw this.

Lu Yuan struggled to stand up, wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, his eyes full of unyielding spirit.

"Come again!" Lu Yuan growled and rushed towards the man in black robe again. (End of this chapter)
