Speed ​​Pass starts with choosing a hunter

Chapter 297 Demonic Qi
In the dense forest, the footsteps became more and more rapid.

Kong Sen looked at the Tianxin Sect members in front of him with a satisfied look on his face.

Chen Danian has been unsuccessful.

In desperation, he could only lead his troops personally to search for the whereabouts of the Tianxin Sect demon.

Kong Sen was able to become the Shaoqing of the Guanglu Temple, a place with a lot of benefits, and now he has become a high-ranking official. Naturally, he has some abilities.

After more than ten days of searching, he finally set up an ambush in the village ahead of the Tianxin Sect and killed all the Tianxin Sect members who were massacring the village in one fell swoop.

He even personally killed the strongest among them.

Now all that's left are just the remnants of the defeated army.

Soon, except for two Tianxin Sect followers who escaped into the mountains, the rest were all killed.

"Mr. Kong is indeed a pillar of the country. He will surely rise to great heights in the future."

Chen Danian flattered with a fawning look on his face.

Although he is old enough to be Kong Sen's grandfather, seniority in officialdom has always been determined by the rank of one's official position.

Not to mention that Kong Sen was also a disciple of the current Taibao.

Kong Sen glanced at Chen Danian and felt annoyed.

If Chen Danian had not been incompetent, he would not have had to do the arrest himself.

He actually missed Bai Yuan a little bit.
"Take the men to arrest the two evil men and prevent any more bloodshed."

"Yes!"

Chen Danian immediately led his troops to chase in the direction of the two men in black robes.

The two men in black robes were just ordinary martial artists at the entry level. Chen Danian thought it would be easy for him to deal with them.

The reason why he has not achieved any achievement yet.

Apart from the fact that the Tianxin Sect demons were indeed cunning, Chen Danian also did not want to put himself in danger.

Although he is old, he still has decades to live. It is a good time for him to enjoy himself and he does not want to lose his life.

The Tianxin Sect’s methods are strange, and they might be able to kill him.

Chen Danian knew that he had displeased Kong Sen, so he worked even harder to capture the two men in black.

He immediately led his troops and disappeared into the mountains and forests.

A black-robed man from the Tianxin Sect ran around without paying attention to the direction.

Before he knew it, he came to a bamboo forest.

The sound of the footsteps chasing him behind him became quieter and quieter, and he felt a little more at ease.

Finally survived?
He felt a sense of relief at having escaped.

But just when he relaxed his mind, a figure appeared in front of him silently.

The man in black robe was caught off guard. He gritted his teeth and charged forward with a scimitar in hand. His speed did not slow down at all and he was extremely ferocious.

The man just pushed his left hand forward, and the scimitar in the air came into contact with his left hand, and the blade was melted at a speed visible to the naked eye!
The man in black robe was horrified.

The scimitar in his hand was made of divine iron. How could it be blocked by a flesh palm, or even corroded?

But he had no time to think about it, because the strange hands appeared in front of him in an instant and grabbed his face with five fingers.

"what!"

All that was heard was a shrill howl.

The black-robed man's entire head turned into a pool of blood, and he was deader than dead.

Bai Yuan shook his hand indifferently.

He leaned over and touched the places on the black-robed man's body where items could be easily hidden.

He already knew what was happening in the distance.

Kong Sen is indeed a capable person.

Bai Yuan's hand touched a hard object.

At this time, Chen Danian also arrived with several officials.

Bai Yuan quickly put the thing into his sleeve, stood up and looked at Chen Danian as if nothing had happened.

When Chen Danian saw that it was Bai Yuan, a look of surprise appeared on his face.

He didn't expect to meet Bai Yuan here.

He looked at the corpse of the Tianxin Sect demon on the ground, and then looked at Bai Yuan.

It is obvious that this person was killed by Bai Yuan.

"Thank you, Lord Bai, for your help."

Chen Danian clasped his fists towards Bai Yuan.

Unlike other people in Lingzhou, he was a fourth-rank official. Although he openly joined Kong Sen, he had never killed Bai Yuan's faction.

He was well aware of Bai Yuan's potential.

If he was too ruthless and Bai Yuan regained the upper hand in the future, he would have a hard time.

An old hand like him knows the limits best.

Bai Yuan: "Since Lord Chen is here, I won't stay any longer."

Chen Danian continued to smile until Bai Yuan left completely, then he let his men take the body away.

"He's here too?"

Kong Sen was quite surprised to hear the news about Bai Yuan from Chen Danian.

Could it be that Bai Yuan had already predicted it in advance?
He smiled faintly and shook his head.

Although Bai Yuan is quite capable, he cannot predict everything. It may be a coincidence.

However, even though the other party helped him, he would not accept the favor.

"Let's go."

Kong Sen put his hands behind his back and was in a good mood.

This time the village massacre case was finally solved, and Liang Taibao also got an explanation.

another side.

Bai Yuan soon arrived at a camp.

Naturally, all of these people are his subordinates who went out with him to kill the enemy.

He walked into a tent and a small bottle made of black glass appeared in his hand.

Bai Yuan looked at the small bottle carefully.

This was what he found from the Tianxin Sect follower.

Unlike the Soul-Chasing Tower, the Tianxin Sect has completely disappeared in Xuanyang since the war between Xuanyang and the Demon Sect.

The last time Bai Yuan had seen the Tianxin Sect’s methods was because of Long Ao from the Shenfu Sect.

He still remembers vividly the Tianxin Sect's method of resurrecting the dead.

Now that he is stronger and more knowledgeable, he still cannot understand the secret of resurrection through a body.

However, with his stronger perception, he realized that the small bottle contained demonic energy.

The Soul Chasing Tower kills, and the Tianxin Sect captures souls. This is already a fixed combination of the Demon Sect. The followers of the Tianxin Sect use resentment to condense demonic energy and sacrifice the demon god. This is also the reason why the Demon Sect is obsessed with the Ten Thousand Souls Sacrifice.

Bai Yuan put the vial away.

He planned to study this evil spirit carefully.

Just then, an armored soldier walked up to the tent.

"Master Bai, Master Kong and his party passed by not far from our camp."

Bai Yuan: "And then?"

"Lord Kong only asked us to convey his thanks to Lord Bai, and then he left."

Bai Yuan nodded: "Got it."

Apparently Kong Sen had learned from Chen Danian that he had killed the Tianxin Sect member.

However, he did not expect Kong Sen to slow down his suppression of him.

The village massacre case was solved, and Kong Sen's prestige in Lingzhou increased again.

The status is given by the court, but fame has to be earned by oneself.

Although Kong Sen failed to win Yan Shaoan's favor this time, he also earned a good reputation, and his position in Lingzhou will become more stable.

When some people are happy, naturally some people will be unhappy.

Yang Fangyu, who had already bought some melon seeds and was ready to laugh at Kong Sen's joke, had his wish dashed.

As the prefect of Huanglong Prefecture, his current position is extremely embarrassing.

Ever since Lingzhou moved the provincial government office to Huanglongfu, he has become redundant.

Before, Bai Yuan was here, so the situation was not obvious.

Now that he has met Kong Sen, he has almost no real power left.

As a prefect, it was almost impossible for him to fight against the governor.

When Yang Fangyu was feeling depressed, he heard the news that Bai Yuan had returned to Huanglong Mansion.

He immediately ran to Shenfu Mountain without hesitation.

"A Yuan, have you picked up the bad tempers of those young masters in Kyoto and started liking hunting?"

Yang Fangyu looked at Bai Yuan, who had been away for several days.

Bai Yuan treats the mountains and forests as his own home and spends most of the year in the mountains.

Although the purpose is to wipe out the demons and monsters, such diligence is rare, so there must be other reasons.

This is why Yang Fangyu thought of hunting.

hunting?

This is a good excuse.

Bai Yuan couldn't say that he was doing it to kill monsters, because other people probably didn't know what the word "killing monsters" meant.

"Is something wrong?"

Yang Fangyu's face fell: "Nothing, I'm just unhappy."

Bai Yuan certainly knew why Yang Fangyu was unhappy. Kong Sen solved the village massacre case, so he naturally wouldn't be very happy.

"By the way, how's the situation in the north?"

Yang Fangyu didn't care: "What else can I do? It's the same as always. I heard that the Demon Sect has sent many strong men from Xiangzhou again, and even the owner of the Soul Chasing Tower has come."

Bai Yuan raised his eyebrows.

Xiangzhou is where Old Man Dong’s Zhenbei Army is located.

In the previous battles between Xuan Yang and the Demon Sect, the largest-scale and most deadly wars took place in Xiangzhou.

Because Xiangzhou has been an important place in the northern border since ancient times, once passing Xiangzhou, they can march south in large numbers and approach the capital.

Therefore, Xu Dingchun and the General Zhenbei who died in battle had always been in Xiangzhou.

The battlefield was not shifted until the Demon Sect brought the Nine Heavens Mysterious Soldiers to Dingzhou.

The master of the Soul-Chasing Tower is not the master of a state, but the master of the entire Soul-Chasing Tower. This shows how powerful he is.

Taibao Yan Shaoan would definitely not have an easy time facing him.

It may take a long time for the war to end.

Bai Yuan: "If there are any changes, remember to tell me."

"Are you going out?"

"Let's go to Huanglong City."

After saying that, Bai Yuan quickly went down Shenfu Mountain.

Only Yang Fangyu was left confused.

He remembered that Bai Yuan had rarely taken the initiative to go to the city since Kong Sen came to Huanglong Mansion, and today was the first time that happened.

Taoxiang is outside.

A fat shopkeeper with a big belly bowed to Bai Yuan with a flattering look on his face.

"Master of the Gate."

The waiter beside him also smiled in unison.

Ever since he learned that Lord Bai had arranged a distinguished guest in his restaurant, the fat owner of the restaurant has become extremely concerned.

It’s rare to see him waiting at the restaurant door every day.

Although he is considered a well-known figure in Huanglongfu City, he is still far inferior to the leader of Shenfu Sect.

Bai Yuan can change his fate with just one sentence.

Such a big shot naturally cannot be neglected.

Hard work pays off.

He waited for many days, and was just about to turn into the Husband-Waiting Stone, when finally Bai Yuan came.

The fat shopkeeper smiled brightly: "Master, the distinguished guest you asked to stay in the room has been staying there all the time and has never left the house."

He trotted to keep up with Bai Yuan, his breathing a little uneven.

Bai Yuan paused, a little surprised.

The old Taoist priest once said that he came here for the demons of Tianxin Sect, but why did he never go out?

Now, all the people from the Tianxin Sect have been killed by Kong Sen. Logically speaking, there is no need for the old Taoist priest to stay in Lingzhou anymore.

weird
Bai Yuan pondered for a moment, then walked to the old Taoist's door and knocked on it with his right hand.

After a while, the old Taoist priest pushed the door open.

Bai Yuan deliberately glanced behind the old Taoist priest and found that there was no one on the bed.

"Taoist Master."

The old Taoist priest did not answer, but stared at Bai Yuan carefully, and only spoke slowly after a long time.

"Demon energy?"
