The transmigrated villain wants to escape Feng Aotian's hellish situation.

Suddenly, a sonic boom erupted, and the air began to tremble. Everything around seemed to freeze, and an immense pressure began to spread from behind it, directly immobilizing it in place.

A voice like that of a demon from hell resounded from all directions.

"Fine...fine...not only did you eat my food, but you also tried to kill me...you're a beast after all. I can't reason with you. I've lost interest in taking you in. Now!! I want to eat horse meat!!!"

Chapter Forty: Linghu'er's Past

Amidst the raging flames, Qin Yangjun's body radiated golden light, his eyes transformed into vertical pupils, as if golden scales flowed within them, and a gigantic golden dragon phantom coiled around his body.

At the same time, the wind and clouds above his head changed, dark clouds covered the sky, a hurricane began to swirl around him, and a diagram of the Five Elements and Eight Trigrams slowly unfolded in the sky.

"I really didn't expect that I would use this technique to deal with a beast. So, what's next..."

Qin Yangjun looked at the Icefire Jade Scale Horse, which was trembling wildly with fear.

The murderous intent in his eyes was self-evident.

The next second, in the reflection of the Icefire Jade Scale Horse's pupils, a golden dragon opened its huge mouth and lunged at it.

.....

Far away in Luohe Town, Yueyao seemed to sense something and turned her head slightly. She saw the sky covered with dark clouds.

Just as she was wondering what was going on, her head was suddenly pressed down.

Turning her head, Ling Hu'er made a shushing gesture at her.

They were seen crouching in the bushes, enveloped by a white array that concealed their presence and made their figures appear ethereal and transparent.

Just then, several people wearing black hoodies walked past them.

After the group passed by, what appeared before them was Luohe Town, which was like a living hell.

The crimson array has spread throughout the entire town, with crimson lines densely covering the houses. Giant crimson monuments stand tall, each seemingly bearing a pained human face.

The strong smell of blood assaulted everyone's nostrils.

This scene caused Ling Hu'er and his group to clench their fists.

"What a bunch of beasts!"

Ling Hu'er couldn't help but curse under her breath. Sure enough, Qin Yangjun hadn't lied to her; this Blood Stele of Evil was indeed the work of the Blood Elder.

Judging from the current situation, they are transforming this land, allowing demonic energy to permeate it.

Land where demonic energy thrives is more suitable for demonic cultivators to cultivate, and the power of demonic cultivators will also increase greatly on such land.

Unlike Baiyang City, Luohe Town rarely sees cultivators; the town is mostly populated by ordinary people. Their land alterations here do indeed serve as a cover...

But this is, after all, the territory of the Yuqian Sect, not to mention that their main force was wiped out not long ago. This Blood Elder is far too audacious.

They simply don't take the Imperial Qian Sect seriously.

Thinking of this, Ling Hu'er couldn't help but look at Yue Yao beside him.

At this moment, Yueyao's attention was distracted by the strange change that had just occurred.

Although it was only for a moment, she felt an extremely familiar aura.

This aura was exactly what Qin Yangjun had displayed on the arena during the Heavenly Ranking competition.

Thinking back to what had just happened, they discovered the strange changes in Luohe Town. They had just arrived here when Linghu'er followed them.

If it weren't for the array runes carried by Ling Hu'er, they would probably have already been discovered.

According to Ling Hu'er, she came because Qin Yangjun suddenly remembered the news about the demonic cultivators and told her, but why didn't Qin Yangjun come over...?

Senior brother... what are you doing?

"Moon Maiden..."

"Ah...how come..."

A call from a disciple of the Beast Valley beside her pulled her back from her thoughts.

Yueyao looked in the direction she pointed and first saw an old man in a blood-red coat, leaning on a cane, standing at the entrance of the town.

Not far in front of him, several demonic cultivators were driving a group of ordinary people dressed in burlap clothes, including men, women, and even children.

Before those people was a pool of blood, surrounded by countless tiny red blood vessels that seemed alive and pulsating.

Yueyao's expression grew increasingly grave.

"Soul Refining Pond..."

"These bastards! They want to use ordinary people to make human medicine."

Ling Hu'er was trembling all over. Seeing this, her junior sisters around her held her tightly, afraid that she would rush out.

But none of her junior sisters said anything like 'stay calm'.

Because they all knew why Ling Hu'er was so angry.

This senior sister's story is not a secret within the sect.

Ling Hu'er was originally from a commoner background, but her village was ravaged by the demonic forces.

Her parents hid her in a water tank, which saved her from disaster.

However, when she emerged from her hiding place, she found corpses everywhere, and she was the only living person left in the entire village.

Her cries were noticed by an elder from the Beast Valley who happened to be passing by.

Seeing the devastation in the village, he immediately understood what had happened.

But such things happen all over the Great Yu Continent, and even the Four Great Sects cannot have spies everywhere.

The elders felt pity for Linghu'er's tearful appearance, tested her talent and found her to be a promising talent for cultivation, so they adopted her.

It was because of this experience that Ling Hu'er came to hate the demonic path.

The scene before her eyes awakened her past nightmares.

Despite her anger, she didn't forget that she had her junior sisters by her side. Her strength was no match for the Blood Elder, and she couldn't let her anger harm them.

But she couldn't bear to see these people suffer, so she could only look at Yueyao.

"How long will it take for your master to arrive?"

Yueyao sighed softly.

"This is the border of the Southern Region. Even if my master comes at all his might, it will still take him half an hour."

"No, by then these people will be like zombies, and there will be no point in saving them."

At this moment, the group of ordinary people were about to be pushed into the blood pool.

Yueyao couldn't help but close her eyes.

In fact, in the eyes of some cultivators, the lives of mortals are as worthless as grass.

But Yueyao couldn't achieve that state of mind, after all, she too had transformed from a mortal into a cultivator.

Most of these demonic cultivators were at the Golden Core stage, some were only at the Foundation Establishment stage, and the strongest was the Blood Elder.

But the Blood Elder is a Void Realm expert; he could wipe them all out with a single hand.

So she was willing but unable to do it.

Seeing this, Linghu was extremely anxious, but there was no use in being anxious. She could only watch helplessly as the scene was about to unfold.

Howl!

Just then, a horse neighed, drawing everyone's attention.

Yueyao and her group sensed a powerful aura rapidly approaching from the south.

The group turned their heads and saw a red and blue beam of light rushing towards them.

Beneath the light, there was a series of rapid hoofbeats.

The group focused their attention and clearly saw the figure in the light.

"That's... the Ice and Fire Jade Scale Horse... but why is its aura even stronger?"

A disciple from the Beast King Valley exclaimed in surprise.

Previously, the Ice-Fire Jade Scale Horse's aura was only at the peak of the Golden Core stage, but now it is comparable to the mid-stage of the Nascent Soul stage.

Furthermore, she could faintly sense that its aura was still rising.

"Its aura is so mixed, it seems to have eaten a lot of spiritual things that it hasn't fully digested. But where did it find so many good things?"

Ling Hu'er looked puzzled.

A spirit object?

Yueyao was also stunned. The direction from which the Icefire Jade Scale Horse charged was the same direction from which she had sensed Qin Yangjun's aura earlier.

Could it be...

As the group was talking, the Icefire Jade Scale Horse swept past them and crashed into the town as if on the verge of death.

The demonic cultivators who were originally driving away ordinary people were so frightened that they scattered like birds and beasts.

They couldn't handle a monster of that level.

But the old man with the blood suddenly became excited.

"Excellent! I never expected to encounter such a strange beast here. Once I subdue it, it will be a great gift for the Demon Lord!"

P.S.: Almost done with work, starting 4K tomorrow.

Chapter 41 So it was you, kid?!

The Blood Elder laughed twice and charged directly at the Ice-Fire Jade Scale Horse, but the Ice-Fire Jade Scale Horse seemed to be dodging something and had no intention of fighting.

But the Blood Elder wouldn't let it escape; he immediately engaged it.

Finally, the two sides began to fight, and bursts of spiritual energy began to erupt at the edge of the town.
