The two quickly left the cave and rushed towards the alliance headquarters under the cover of night.

Along the way, they didn't say much, because they all knew in their hearts that the fight with the Blood Vampire Clan was far from over.

After returning to the alliance headquarters, Luo Chen and Qing Shuang were immediately summoned by the elders.

They reported in detail their experiences and discoveries in the Xia Yan Dynasty, as well as their latest speculations about the Blood Demon Sect.

"This is really worrying news." An elder said solemnly, "The Blood Vampire Sect's methods are becoming more and more cruel. We must take more decisive measures."

"Elders, I suggest that we immediately dispatch more forces to conduct an in-depth investigation into the Blood Demon Sect, and strengthen ties with the various dynasties to jointly guard against their conspiracies." Luo Chen proposed.

The elders nodded in agreement.

They decided to take immediate action, not only to strengthen the defense within the alliance, but also to contact other sects and individual cultivators to form a broader alliance to fight against the threat of the Blood Vampire Sect.

Luo Chen and Qing Shuang were assigned a new task. They needed to travel to various dynasties, convey the alliance's warnings, and assist local cultivators in strengthening their defenses.

At the same time, they must continue to search for the traces of the Blood Vampire Sect and prevent any further actions from them.

They have been to the Xia Yan Dynasty.

Moreover, since something like that happened in the Xia Yan Dynasty, they would naturally be on guard.

So, the next dynasty Luo Chen is going to.

Naturally, it is the Yuan Dynasty located near the Xia Yan Dynasty.

The Yuan Dynasty, the royal family's surname is Yuan, compared with the Xia Yan Dynasty, it is more ancient and mysterious.

The capital of the Yuan Dynasty is located on a vast plain, surrounded by rolling mountains, like a natural barrier between heaven and earth.

When Luo Chen and Qingshuang arrived at the capital of the Yuan Dynasty, it was early morning. The first ray of sunlight penetrated the mist and illuminated the ancient city.

Without stopping, they headed directly to the center of the imperial city to seek out officials from the dynasty to learn about the situation.

In the meeting hall of the imperial city, Luo Chen and Qing Shuang met the prime minister of the Yuan Dynasty, a middle-aged man who looked gentle but had a sharp light in his eyes.

"Two immortal masters, welcome." The prime minister said politely, "We have heard about the recent massacre. The Yuan Dynasty has strengthened its defense measures, but we also hope to get more support from the alliance."

Qingshuang nodded and asked, "Prime Minister, can you tell us if a similar incident occurred in the Yuan Dynasty?"

The prime minister hesitated for a moment and said, "Yes, we also had a massacre here, but it is different from the situation in the Xia Yan Dynasty. We have more survivors, and they all seem to have been under some kind of mental control, and their memories of the incident are vague."

Luo Chen frowned, and said in a deep voice: "It seems that the Blood Vampire Sect's methods are more diverse. We must find out their true purpose as soon as possible."

The prime minister nodded in agreement and arranged for an official to accompany Luo Chen and Qing Shuang to the nearest massacre site.

Led by the officials, they came to a village at the foot of the mountain.

This place was also in a mess, but unlike the villages in the Xia Yan Dynasty, the houses here were not destroyed, but were empty.

Luo Chen and Qing Shuang carefully examined the scene and found some blood-colored symbols similar to those of the Xia Yan Dynasty, but these symbols seemed to be more complicated, as if some kind of ritual was being performed.

Qingshuang took out a piece of talisman paper from his arms and injected true energy into it. The talisman paper turned into a blue light and flew into the air, trying to detect whether there were any hidden spiritual fluctuations around.

"There seems to be some kind of powerful restriction here." Qingshuang frowned and said, "We may need more power to break it."

Luo Chen nodded, he took out a jade pendant from his waist and injected true energy into it. The jade pendant emitted a soft light and formed a protective shield that enveloped the two of them.

"Let's try to break the ban first, and then conduct a deeper investigation." Luo Chen said.

The two began to work together to break the ban, and after some effort, they finally opened a gap in the ban.

They carefully passed through the prohibition and entered the center of the village.

In the center of the village, they found a huge altar, on which were placed some strange magical instruments and blood-colored crystals, similar to the items they had found in the cave of the Xia Yan Dynasty.

"It seems that the Blood Demon Sect performed some kind of ritual here." Luo Chen said.

Qingshuang nodded, and she began to carefully examine the items on the altar, trying to find more clues.

Just then, they heard a slight sound of footsteps.

The two men immediately became alert, hiding in the dark and observing the person coming.

After a while, a man in a black robe appeared in their sight.

The man walked to the altar and began to chant something in a low voice, as if he was performing some kind of ritual.

Luo Chen and Qingshuang looked at each other. They knew that this was a great opportunity to learn more secrets of the Blood Ghost Sect.

Luo Chen waved his hand lightly, and an invisible wave of true energy silently attacked the man in black robe.

The man in black robe seemed to notice something, but it was too late. The energy fluctuations hit him, and he groaned and fell to the ground.

Luo Chen and Qing Shuang quickly stepped forward, subdued the man in black robe, and began to interrogate him.

"Who are you? What are you doing here?" Luo Chen asked sternly.

"I, I don't know, I don't know anything."

The black-robed man said in a panic.

The black-robed man's voice trembled, his eyes were full of fear and confusion, and he seemed to really have no idea what was going on.

Luo Chen and Qingshuang looked at each other. They knew that this person was most likely controlled by the Blood Demon Sect's secret technique.

"What's your name?" Qingshuang asked softly, trying to calm the man.

"My name is..." The man tried hard to recall, but seemed unable to remember his own name. "I just remember that I should perform the ceremony here."

Luo Chen frowned, he sensed something unusual from the man's reaction.

He decided to try a different approach to getting the information.

"Do you remember what this altar is used for?" Luo Chen asked, pointing at the altar.

The man's eyes followed Luo Chen's fingers. A trace of confusion flashed in his eyes, and then suddenly became empty.

"This altar is used to summon." The man's voice became mechanical and monotonous, as if controlled by some kind of power, "Summon the gods of the Blood Vampire Sect."

Luo Chen and Qing Shuang were shocked. They realized that this man might have become a part of the Blood Vampire Cult's ritual without knowing it, and his memory and will might be controlled by some powerful secret technique.

"What does the ritual for summoning the gods require?" Qingshuang continued to ask, trying to know more details.

The man's eyes became empty again, and he began to answer mechanically: "I need the blood and soul of a living person."

Luo Chen and Qingshuang looked at each other. They knew that they must stop the Blood Vampire Clan’s plan, otherwise more innocent people would suffer.

"Do you remember when the last ceremony was?" Luo Chen asked.

The man was silent for a moment, then slowly said: "Three days ago"

Three days ago, Luo Chen and Qing Shuang felt a sinking feeling in their hearts, which meant that they had to act quickly to stop the next ritual of the Blood Vampire Sect. "Can you remember anything else about the ritual?" Qing Shuang asked.

The man shook his head, his eyes became confused again, and he seemed to have lost perception of his surroundings.

Luo Chen and Qing Shuang knew that they could no longer obtain any more information from this man.

They decided to take the man to a safe place and notify officials from the Yuan Dynasty to handle the follow-up matters.

After handing the man over to the officials of the Yuan Dynasty, Luo Chen and Qingshuang began to discuss the next plan.

"It seems that the Blood Demon Sect's plan is even bigger than we imagined. They are performing evil rituals not only in the Xia Yan Dynasty, but also in the Yuan Dynasty." Luo Chen said in a deep voice.

Qing Shuang nodded, a hint of determination flashed in her eyes: "We must find the Blood Vampire Sect's base as soon as possible and completely destroy their plan."

Luo Chen nodded, took out a map from his arms and began to study it.

The Yuan Dynasty covered a large area.

If they want to find the Blood Demon Sect’s headquarters in the Yuan Dynasty.

This is tantamount to looking for a needle in a haystack.

Luo Chen and Qingshuang carefully searched for possible clues on the map. They knew that the Blood Vampire Clan's headquarters must be hidden in some unknown corner, and perhaps a place related to these massacres was the key.

"We have to start from the locations of these massacres," Qingshuang pointed to several marked points on the map and said, "There may be some connection between these locations, which may lead us to the lair of the Blood Vampire Sect."

Luo Chen nodded, agreeing with Qing Shuang's opinion, "Yes, these locations seem random, but if we can find the pattern between them, perhaps we can infer the range of the Blood Demon Sect's activities."

They began marking the locations of all the known massacres on a map and trying to connect the dots.

After some effort, they found that the dots seemed to form an irregular circle around a specific area.

"This area," Luo Chen pointed to the circular area on the map, "looks like the center of the Vampire Sect's activities. We have to go there to investigate."

A trace of determination flashed in Qingshuang's eyes, "Then let's set off immediately. Time is running out, and we can't let the Blood Vampire Sect have another chance to perform the next ritual."

The two quickly packed their luggage and prepared to set off.

Of course, before setting off, they once again went to the depths of the Yuan Dynasty's imperial palace.

This matter naturally requires the assistance of people from the Yuan Dynasty.

Yuan Dynasty, deep in the imperial palace.

In a main hall.

Luo Chen and Qingshuang stood in the center of the hall, facing the prime minister and several important officials of the Yuan Dynasty.

The prime minister frowned, obviously worried about the news brought by Luo Chen and Qing Shuang.

"My two immortal masters, your discovery is shocking." The prime minister said in a deep voice, "We in the Yuan Dynasty cannot sit idly by. Please tell us how we can help you?"

Luo Chen bowed and saluted, his tone firm: "We hope that the Yuan Dynasty can provide some manpower to go to that area with us to explore. At the same time, we also hope that the Yuan Dynasty can strengthen the border security to prevent the members of the Blood Vampire Sect from escaping."

The prime minister nodded and turned to a general beside him: "General, this matter is left to you. Select the best troops and go with the two immortal masters to investigate."

The general took the order and went down to make arrangements immediately.

The prime minister turned to Luo Chen and Qing Shuang and said, "My two immortal masters, the safety of the Yuan Dynasty is entrusted to you. We will immediately strengthen our defenses and notify other dynasties to jointly guard against the conspiracy of the Blood Demon Sect."

Luo Chen and Qing Shuang bowed again to express their gratitude.

Then they left the hall with the general and prepared to set off.

At the border of the Yuan Dynasty, a team composed of elite soldiers, Luo Chen and Qing Shuang were ready to go.

The general's name was Yuan Lie, an experienced veteran. He rode on his horse, scanning the troops with his sharp eyes.

"Everyone, this mission is important. We not only need to investigate the enemy, but also protect the safety of the two immortal masters." Yuan Lie said loudly, "Everyone must be alert and must not be careless."

The team set off slowly, moving forward along the rugged mountain road.

Luo Chen and Qing Shuang rode on horses, walking side by side with Yuan Lie.

"General Yuan, how strong are the enemies we might encounter on this trip?" Qingshuang asked.

Yuan Lie pondered for a moment and replied, "According to intelligence, most of the members of the Blood Ghost Sect practice evil magic, and their strength should not be underestimated. But with the two immortal masters here, we will definitely be able to gain the upper hand."

Luo Chen nodded, took out a jade slip from his arms and handed it to Yuan Lie: "This is the information about the Blood Ghost Sect produced by the Alliance. I hope it can be helpful to you."

Yuan Lie took the jade slip and nodded gratefully: "Thank you, Immortal Master."

The team traveled through the mountains and forests. Along the way, Luo Chen and Qing Shuang exchanged opinions with Yuan Lie from time to time and discussed possible situations.

Qingshuang would take out talisman paper from time to time, cast spells, and explore the surrounding environment.

A few days later, they finally arrived at the area marked on the map.

The mountains here are steep, the forests are dense, and an eerie atmosphere permeates the air.

"This is it." Luo Chen stopped his horse and stared at the valley ahead.

Yuan Lie ordered the troops to stop, and the soldiers quickly deployed their forces and remained alert to their surroundings.

Luo Chen and Qingshuang began to carefully explore the entrance to the valley.

"There seems to be some kind of barrier here." Qingshuang frowned and said, "We may need to break it before we can enter."

Luo Chen nodded, took out a string of magic beads from his waist, and began to chant spells in a low voice.

The magic bead emitted a soft light, forming a halo that enveloped the two of them.

"Let's try to see if we can use the power of this string of magic beads to break the barrier." Luo Chen said.

The two of them walked slowly towards the entrance of the valley. The light of the magic bead became brighter and brighter, and finally came into contact with the barrier, emitting a violent fluctuation.

Cracks began to appear in the barrier and gradually dissipated.

"Success!" Qingshuang said in surprise.

Luo Chen and Qing Shuang passed through the barrier, followed closely by Yuan Lie and the soldiers.

The valley was desolate with only the sound of the wind whistling in my ears.

They went deeper into the valley and soon discovered an underground cave.

"Let's go."

Luo Chen and Qing Shuang looked at each other. They knew that they had to be careful and not let any member of the Blood Vampire Sect escape. (End of this chapter)
