"I hope this group of people won't let me down. It would be best if they planned a shocking conspiracy to harm the Taling Desert, and then I discovered the clues and further destroyed their plan, thereby gaining a lot of experience points."

Jiang Qiong showed a faint smile, took out a sound transmission talisman and transmitted it to Wu Zhilu who was in the Golden Core Realm.

In case.

Jiang Qiong also found some elders in the Foundation Establishment stage in Yaoyun Valley and asked them to help investigate the intelligence of this group of people and their current whereabouts.

Of course, in terms of voice transmission, Jiang Qiong focused on Wu Zhilu who was in the Jindan realm, with the general idea that he guessed that there was something wrong with these people.

The message passed between the elders of Yaoyun Valley was basically to inquire about the whereabouts of this group of people out of curiosity.

To be cautious, Jiang Qiong questioned them separately to prevent information from being exposed.

Following Jiang Qiong's message.

After a while, replies were received from the elders of Yaoyun Valley one after another.

It was about dusk.

Wu Zhilu, who was in the Jindan realm, sent a message and said that she would send someone to investigate.

Received messages from a group of people.

Jiang Qiong was not idle either, and was preparing to go there alone to investigate the specific situation.

Think of this.

Jiang Qiong looked at the bamboo slips, selecting targets for investigation.

After some careful consideration, Jiang Qiong decided to start with the Chiyan Gang.

According to the intelligence from Hongxin Tower, this gang does not have an old ancestor in the Jindan realm, and its strength is relatively weak.

As the leader of the Chiyan Gang, Zhao Shan is ruthless, meticulous, and very lustful, making him a perfect candidate to be the breakthrough point and uncover the truth about his entry into the monster world.

Do it when you think of it.

Jiang Qiong did not hesitate. He knew that the Chiyan Gang's headquarters was in the Qingfeng County City of Yaoyun Oasis. He then circulated his spiritual energy and headed towards the county city.

Through the teleportation array.

Less than half a day.

Jiang Qiong arrived in the county.

At this time, the night was quiet, the streets in the city were brightly lit, but there were few pedestrians.

Jiang Qiong restrained his breath, and his figure disappeared into the night like a ghost, sneaking towards the Chiyan Gang silently.

The Chiyan Gang's headquarters is located in a secret courtyard in the east of the city, surrounded by high walls. The courtyard is brightly lit and appears to be heavily guarded.

Jiang Qiong observed for a while and found that there were two disciples guarding the entrance of the courtyard, and there were many disciples patrolling inside the courtyard.

Breaking in rashly will definitely arouse suspicion, so we must find a suitable time and method to sneak in.

At this moment, he noticed a disciple from the Chiyan Gang walking out of the courtyard, apparently on his way out to do some business.

Jiang Qiong came up with a plan and quietly followed the disciple. When the disciple walked into a secluded alley, he suddenly attacked and subdued him with lightning speed.

Then, Jiang Qiong quickly changed into the disciple's clothes and stuffed them into his own storage space.

After some disguise and shrinking, Jiang Qiong swaggered towards the Chiyan Gang's base and successfully passed the inspection at the entrance.

Relying on a higher realm.

No one noticed Jiang Qiong's abnormality, making it very easy and convenient for him to enter and exit.

Enter the Chiyan Gang.

Jiang Qiong was not idle. He quietly hid himself and explored the terrain of the entire gang.

Said it was a gang.

In fact, the power of the Chiyan Gang is not inferior to the general foundation-building forces. There are three real people in the foundation-building realm alone, and the gang covers a vast area of ​​about hundreds of square kilometers.

The rest of the night.

Jiang Qiong is investigating the Chiyan Gang.

Finally, they roughly figured out the layout of the entire gang, which was divided into five major courtyards, namely the main courtyard, east courtyard, west courtyard, south courtyard and north courtyard.

Each courtyard has different functions and responsibilities. The main courtyard is the residence of gang leader Zhao Shan and senior elders. The east courtyard is the training place for disciples. The west courtyard is the warehouse and pharmacy. The south courtyard is the guest room and reception hall. The north courtyard is the logistics and miscellaneous affairs processing area.

The courtyards were brightly lit, and disciples patrolling everywhere appeared to be on high alert.

Walk along the winding corridor.

Jiang Qiong observed that most of the disciples in the East Court were at the Qi Refining Stage, with a total number of about 300 people. They were meditating and practicing in their respective training rooms, or practicing martial arts in the martial arts arena.

After a casual glance, Jiang Qiong didn't care and continued walking towards the main courtyard.

The main courtyard is the core area of ​​the entire Chiyan Gang, covering the largest area and with the most luxurious buildings.

There is a tall main building in the courtyard, surrounded by several small buildings and gardens. The defense in the vicinity is the most stringent, with many formations and mechanisms arranged.

Jiang Qiong approached the main building cautiously, using his spiritual sense to explore the surrounding situation.

Under the cover of his spiritual awareness, he discovered that there were dozens of disciples patrolling in the main building, and upstairs there were cultivators who had reached the perfection of the Qi training realm meditating and practicing.

At the innermost part of the pavilion, there was a faint strong aura, which was probably the gang leader Zhao Shan.

Jiang Qiong decided not to alarm these experts for the time being and continued to explore other places in the courtyard.

He walked around the main building and came to the west courtyard.

The West Courtyard is the warehouse and pharmacy of the Chiyan Gang, storing a large number of elixirs, pills and treasures.

As soon as he walked nearby, Jiang Qiong saw several disciples moving supplies, and there were several dark-skinned spirit puppet guards at the warehouse door.

"It's better to come early than to come late."

"Just arrived, there are disciples moving resources."

Jiang Qiong had an idea and decided to go in and see if there were any useful clues.

He used the Nightmare Breathing Technique, concealed his figure with talismans and magical tools, and entered the warehouse silently.

The whole process seems obscure.

Not only did the monks nearby not notice anything unusual.

Even the formation did not notice that a cultivator had lurked in.

As Jiang Qiong swept his eyes around, he saw that the space inside the warehouse was very large and was divided into several rooms, each of which was filled with various supplies.

Jiang Qiong found some account books and documents recording the activities of the Chiyan Gang in one of the rooms.

He flipped through them casually and found that these documents recorded some recent actions and transactions of the Chiyan Gang. Several of the transactions involved some elixirs and magical instruments of unknown origin.

Jiang Qiong's heart moved, and he felt that these transactions might be related to the Chiyan Gang's conspiracy to enter the monster world.

He casually made a copy of the documents and put them into his storage bag, preparing to study them carefully.

After doing this, he quietly left the warehouse and continued walking towards the South Courtyard.

The South Courtyard is the guest room and reception hall of the Chiyan Gang, mainly used to receive foreign guests and VIPs.

Jiang Qiong saw several foreign monks in the courtyard of the South Courtyard. They were talking with disciples of the Chiyan Gang.

Through obscure spiritual exploration.

Jiang Qiong could see that these disciples had a hint of demonic energy on them. Although they were not disguised as demons, they were definitely connected to demons and were often close to them.

"It is indeed related to the monster."

Jiang Qiong stayed in a secluded area and eavesdropped silently for a while, but did not get any valuable information, so he turned around and left.

All the way to the North Courtyard.

This is the logistics and chores processing area of ​​the Chiyan Gang, which has some kitchens, warehouses and workshops. Jiang Qiong found some busy disciples in a corner of the north courtyard, who were counting supplies and handling chores.

Jiang Qiong didn't stay here for too long and turned back to the main courtyard.

Return to Zhao Shan's residence.

Jiang Qiong was just about to sneak in and investigate when he suddenly detected a flash of light from the Chiyan Gang's disciple's sound transmission note.

The running spiritual sense sweeps through.

An old voice came from inside.

The general idea was to ask where Jiang Qiong was now, to quickly go to the martial arts arena to gather, and to follow the delegation to meet a group of distinguished guests.

"Receiving distinguished guests?"

After hearing the command in the sound transmission note, Jiang Qiong thought for a moment and decided to temporarily pretend to be a disciple of the Chiyan Gang and follow them to receive the distinguished guest.

After all, he now needs more information to uncover the relationship between the Red Flame Gang and the monster world, and these distinguished guests may be the key.

After tidying up the clothes of the Chiyan Gang disciples and making sure there were no flaws, Jiang Qiong strode towards the martial arts arena.

On the way.

Jiang Qiong was not idle. He used the magic weapon in his storage bag to search the captured disciple's consciousness and found out his identity and basic information of the Chiyan Gang.

Wait until the soul search is complete.

Jiang Qiong arrived at the martial arts arena located in the southeast corner of the main courtyard.

At this time, many disciples of the Chiyan Gang had gathered in the venue, all of them with serious expressions. It was obvious that the mission this time was of great importance.

Jiang Qiong blended in with the crowd, trying not to attract attention.

In front of everyone, stood a middle-aged man in a gorgeous robe, directing the group in the center of the venue. This man was none other than one of the managers of the Chiyan Gang, named Zhou Tong, who was in charge of the daily affairs and arrangements within the gang.

Zhou Tong glanced around and his eyes fell on Jiang Qiong, frowning slightly: "Shi Wei, come here!"

Jiang Qiong's heart tightened, but she remained calm and walked quickly to Zhou Tong.

Zhou Tong looked him over and asked, "I asked you to be in charge of purchasing monster flesh and blood. Have you bought all the monster flesh and blood?"

Jiang Qiong's mind raced, knowing that he couldn't reveal any flaws, so he took out a pile of monster flesh and blood from his storage bag and handed it over.

The flesh and blood of these monsters.

These were all Jiang Qiong's accumulation before, and there was a huge pile of them in the storage bag.

Zhou Tong took the monster's flesh and blood, checked it, and nodded: "Very good, follow the team and get ready to set off."

Jiang Qiong silently retreated back to the team. Following Zhou Tong's order, a group of cultivators from the Chiyan Gang walked out of the city in an orderly manner.

Jiang Qiong mingled in the team, trying to keep a low profile, but he was secretly thinking about how to obtain more useful information from this operation.

In the running of his thoughts.

Not a moment.

A group of monks from the Chiyan Gang traveled all the way to the desert area outside the city.

The team marched for about an hour and finally stopped at a sand dune.

In the distance, they could vaguely see several cloaked figures slowly approaching them.

Zhou Tong stepped forward and bowed, saying, "Dear guests, I'm sorry to have waited so long."

A man in a cloak walked out and said in a low, hoarse voice: "No need to be polite, we just arrived too."

As he spoke, he lifted a corner of his cloak, revealing a pale face with a strange red light flashing in his eyes.

Jiang Qiong's eyes flickered slightly. Through spiritual exploration, he found that the aura emanating from these people was obviously different from that of ordinary cultivators. It carried a hint of coldness and evil, and was obviously closely related to monsters.

Zhou Tong nodded and signaled the disciples behind him to hand over the supplies they brought to the other party.

Upon seeing this, the disciples of the Chiyan Gang also stepped forward and handed over the flesh and blood of the monsters in their storage bags.

The cloaked man took the storage bag, checked it, and nodded with satisfaction: "Very good, this flesh and blood is enough."

"Next, we need your gang to provide more elixirs and magic tools."

Zhou Tong frowned and said, "We will try our best to prepare spiritual medicines and magic tools, but the quantity is limited. Please forgive us, my dear guest."

The cloaked man sneered: "This is part of the cooperation agreement between you and us, do you want to go back on your word?"

Zhou Tong's face changed, and he quickly apologized with a smile: "No, no, we will definitely do our best to prepare, please rest assured."

"That's better." The cloaked monk snorted coldly, then changed his tone and said, "Let's go. According to the agreement, we should also give you some 'return gifts'!"

The words fell.

The cloaked monk led a group of disciples from the Red Flame Gang and walked towards the desert.

Jiang Qiong had a calm expression and followed silently.

Not a moment.

He walked to the sand dune area, where there was a huge sand pit filled with blood-red liquid, emitting a strong fishy smell and strange demonic aura.

It’s just that the evil spirit is concealed by special means.

None of the Qi training realm cultivators present were able to detect it.

"Go down."

As the cloaked monk finished speaking, Zhou Tong stood at the edge of the sand pit, turned around and shouted to the disciples of the Red Flame Gang: "Follow the order, everyone enter the sand pit and receive baptism!"

Although the disciples of the Chiyan Gang were a little hesitant, they all jumped into the sand pit under Zhou Tong's stern gaze.

Jiang Qiong glanced at the blood pool, his expression still calm. The demonic energy contained in the liquid inside was too shallow to have any effect on him.

So he followed along.

As soon as he entered the sand pit, Jiang Qiong immediately felt the strangeness of the blood-red liquid.

It was like a living thing, trying to penetrate his skin.

Jiang Qiong quietly circulated his spiritual power and easily resisted the attack.

However, some disciples of the Chiyan Gang seemed to be in pain. Under the invasion of the red liquid, they all screamed and felt severe pain and coldness all over their bodies.

The cloaked monk stood at the edge of the sand pit, watching everything coldly.

They then chanted incantations in low voices and formed seals with their hands. Immediately, the blood in the sand pit began to churn, forming whirlpools that enveloped the disciples of the Chiyan Gang.

Jiang Qiong was sucked into a whirlpool and felt a strong suction force, but as the spiritual energy blocked it, all the abnormalities disappeared in an instant.

Compared to Jiang Qiong's ease.

Some of the disciples of the Chiyan Gang nearby could not hold on any longer and could not endure the pain. They let out shrill screams and their bodies were gradually consumed by blood, turning into a pool of red mud.

And as time goes by.

Not a moment.

The blood in the sand pit gradually calmed down. The surviving disciples of the Chiyan Gang all looked pale, but there was a strange red light in their eyes. It was obvious that they had been infected by some kind of power.

"A demon has entered my body."

"Does this group of people want to train demon cultivators?"

Jiang Qiong's eyes flickered slightly, and he roughly saw the plan of the cloaked monk and the Red Flame Gang.

"They have done such vicious things. It's just as I thought. They have some big plans in secret."

Jiang Qiong exhaled slowly and watched everything silently without alerting the enemy. (End of this chapter)
