Miss Demon Lord will never surrender to the Saint

The following scene was still fresh in his memory.

The dice he had just made made a crisp sound at the same time, as if they were attacked by an invisible force, and exploded in mid-air!

Blood immediately flowed from the corner of Sun Ying's mouth. This time was different from the last time. Last time he just made a simple calculation and did not use too much spiritual power. Even though the dice were destroyed, he did not suffer much backlash.

But this time, he was seriously calculating Qi Lian Qing's position, which caused him to suffer a very serious backlash.

"Damn it, this Qilian Qing seems to be the big secret I deduced before. The treasure on her is definitely extraordinary!" Sun Ying took out a healing pill from the storage bag and swallowed it, gasping for breath and roaring in a low voice.

His heart was bleeding after his spiritual weapons were destroyed twice in a row!

What made him even more angry was that the backlash he suffered was very severe, which would cause his strength to drop significantly in the next ten days, and this period of time was the most critical time for escape!

In other words, his chances of successfully escaping will be greatly reduced due to the backlash this time!

"I need to recuperate. I'm afraid I won't be able to help you in the next battle."

"It's okay, she's just an ordinary Body Tempering Realm. I can handle her easily. Unfortunately, I didn't figure out where she is, so I can only use stupid methods... No, that's not right. Perhaps we can make use of the power of the Qilian family." Xue Jue felt that being the oriole behind the mantis of the Qilian family was a good choice.

Qilian Qing is not easy to find, but those members of the Qilian family who have never concealed their identities are not easy to find either. Follow them and you will most likely be able to find Qilian Qing!

……

"No news about Qilianhu yet? Strange, where did he go?"

"Brother Xi, Brother Hu hasn't appeared for a long time. He received your order and sent some people to monitor that mysterious force, and then there has been no news since then."

Qi Lianxi stood at the place where Qi Lianhu last received news, brows furrowed, not knowing where Qi Lianhu had gone.

His first guess was that Qilian Qing might have secretly attacked and killed Qilian Hu, but he changed his mind and realized that Qilian Qing did not have such a strong power. To get rid of Qilian Hu quietly, he would need the strength of at least a half-step master.

But Qilian Qing is not that powerful.

Moreover, Qilian Hu has subordinates. Even if Qilian Qingxi kills Qilian Hu, those subordinates will flee in all directions and attract the attention of other Qilian family members nearby.

Qi Lianxi's gaze fell on a sundry shop not far away whose door was closed. His intuition told him that something was wrong with this shop.

"Why is the door closed there? They are not doing business today?"

"The door was open before, when did it get closed... Wait, Brother Xi, what do you mean..."

"Send someone to break down the door of this store. I suspect something is hidden inside!" Qi Lianxi nodded and gave orders to the others behind him.

After receiving the order, everyone in the Qilian family did not hesitate at all and immediately used brute force to open the door of the grocery store.

Everything seemed normal in the grocery store. Various items were arranged on the shelves in different categories, and nothing looked suspicious.

Qi Lianxi frowned slightly. Although everything here looked normal, he always had a strange feeling, as if there was something strange here.

He raised his hand and gave a cold order, "Search, don't miss any corner!"

"Yes!"

The group rushed into the store and began to conduct an extremely detailed search of the grocery store.

In this search that was almost like digging three feet underground, a secret door was soon discovered. When the sealed secret door was violently opened, revealing everything behind the secret door, the people of the Qilian family gasped.

The missing Qilian Hu and his men had turned into mummies and were casually thrown into a dark room behind a secret door. This extremely strange death made people who saw it feel cold.

In an instant, they thought of the infamous demon sect.

"This is the method used by the Blood Sea Sect. There is the Blood Sea Demonic Way here!" A person from the Qilian family shouted.

The Demonic Sect!

"How dare the Demon Sect act recklessly in Chiyue City?" Hearing this horrified cry, Qi Lianxi immediately came over. After seeing the mummies, his expression became a little strange. "Does this count as a great gift to the city lord?"

Qi Lian Hu's death was insignificant, this guy was dead and that was it, but his death led to the exposure of the evil path hidden in Chiyue City, which was a great achievement!

The Blood Sea Sect monk killed Qi Lian Hu who was tracking down Qi Lian Qing. Does this mean that Qi Lian Qing has colluded with the Blood Sea Demon Sect? Qi Lian Xi's eyes flashed with divine light. He seemed to have found a perfect excuse to request more support.

Originally, he had to take the city lord's thoughts into consideration when taking action and couldn't go too far. But now, the people he brought with him had met with the evil hands of the demons, and this was a perfect excuse!

As long as he is under the banner of tracking down the evil, no matter how extreme his actions are, it will be fine, because this is Yao Chi's sphere of influence, and killing the evil is only natural.

If he really killed the demon from the Blood Sea Sect with his own hands, Yao Chi would have to give him a certificate of commendation to praise him.

"I died at the right time. God helps me!" Qi Lianxi grinned, took out the communication jade token and sent a message to the city lord, telling him that he had found traces of the evil path.

Since the matter concerned the devil's way, the City Lord of Chiyue City simply could not turn a blind eye to it. In an instant, his reply was delivered to Qi Lianxi.

When Qi Lianxi sent the situation at the scene to the city lord, the city lord immediately made a decision and sent a large number of troops to completely block the area and search for any evildoers that might be hidden there.

"I will send three masters here to kill the demon here!"

"Thank you very much, Lord City Lord. By the way, the Qi Lianqing we are looking for may also be in collusion with the Demon Sect..."

"You can handle this matter as you wish. I just want the demon to die!"

"Understood!" Qi Lianxi put away the jade token, a hint of satisfaction flashed across his face. The city lord had already tacitly agreed with his statement, so he could now shout the slogan of killing the devil to deal with Qi Lianqing.

Near Yaochi, no one dared to protect a cultivator who was suspected to be a demon, unless he thought he had too many heads.

"Qi Lianqing, I want to see how you run this time!"

……

"There's something wrong with the atmosphere."

"The guards look too serious. They weren't like that just now."

Qian Lin and Ye Qiuhan looked at each other and came to the same conclusion. Something very important must have happened somewhere they didn't know about, so important that the guards in front of them became extremely alert.

"Before, these people's excuse was to catch thieves who broke into the city lord's mansion to steal. It can be said that they lied with open eyes. They also knew this, so their attitude was rather lazy." Qian Lin said to Ye Qiuhan while observing the guards patrolling back and forth on the street. "But now their eyes are alert and their hands are tightly holding their weapons, as if a terrible enemy is lingering near them."

Could it be that Qi Lianqing attacked and killed the guards?

No, if Qi Lian Qing's position had been exposed, these guards would definitely not stand here and patrol, but would run directly to where Qi Lian Qing was and surround her.

What could be the reason?

Qian Lin couldn't figure it out.

So she decided to just go and ask.

"Ye Qiuhan, tie these people up and I'll ask them what's going on." Qian Lin ordered Ye Qiuhan.

"This is not good. They are the guards of this city." After hearing Qian Lin's words, Ye Qiuhan's first thought was to refuse. Isn't it too bold to attack these guards in broad daylight?

But Qian Lin didn't think there was anything wrong with this. Before Ye Qiuhan gave an answer, she had already rushed to the street and attracted the attention of the guards.

Qian Lin's outfit was already a bit suspicious, and now she jumped out from a nearby alley in front of the guards, which simply engraved the words "there is something wrong with me" on her face.

Qian Lin looked at the team of guards with the spirit of an actor, his eyes slightly widened, and he made a surprised sound, as if he didn't expect that a team of guards would appear here.

Then she quickly ran back into the alley.

If the guards did not react to such a suspicious behavior, their wages would really be wasted.

"Go after her and see, maybe she is the demon we are looking for." The captain of the guards immediately ordered, "Report the situation here immediately."

"Yes!"

After making all the preparations, the captain of the guard rushed into the alley with his men.

Then there is no more then.

They stepped into the trap that Ye Qiuhan had carefully prepared, and each of them was tied up like a big green dumpling.

"Hehe, don't be afraid. I mean no harm. I just want to ask what the situation is and what you are looking for?" The veil on Qian Lin's face had been replaced with a piece of black cloth, and now only a pair of big blue eyes were exposed on her whole body.

Suspicious, so suspicious!

But there was no hostility coming from her, which puzzled the tied-up guards.

Looking down at the green vines that bound him, the captain of the guard breathed a sigh of relief. At least he didn't encounter any evildoers. This was very good news.

As for who the mysterious man in front of him was, he didn't care that much.

Because Qian Lin was the only one who appeared in front of them, they naturally thought that Qian Lin was the wood-type cultivator who controlled the vines, and the fact that he cultivated wood-type spiritual energy at least proved that the person in front of them was not a demon.

"There is a Blood Sea Demon Sect causing chaos in the city. We are tracking them down on the orders of the city lord!" the captain of the guards replied immediately.

There is nothing to hide about this matter, and once this task is given, anyone with a bit of common sense will let them go, so as to avoid being labeled as an accomplice of the Blood Sea Sect.

This is near the Yaochi Lake, and no one dares to have anything to do with the evil ways.

"Blood Sea Demonic Sect?!" Qian Lin's voice suddenly became extremely surprised. She subconsciously thought that the captain of the guard was lying, but then she thought, who would dare to make such a joke here?

If it were somewhere else, Qian Lin would have suspected whether this was a vicious plot devised by Qi Lianxi, but here, it was impossible!

Because once something related to the magic path occurs in Chiyue City, Yao Chi will send people directly over. If it is discovered that the city lord is using the name of the magic path to satisfy his own selfish desires, the Yao Chi monks sent to investigate the case will show no mercy.

The mayor of Chiyue City may be greedy and evil, but he is definitely not stupid.

Anyone who is stupid enough to use the magic as an excuse to deal with Qi Lianqing here can never become the city lord.

Qian Lin made a gesture to Ye Qiuhan who was hiding not far away, and the vines wrapped around those people immediately turned into spiritual energy and disappeared.

"Since it's something related to the devil, I won't ask any more questions." After Qian Lin said this, he turned around and left, disappearing from the guards' sight the next moment.

The guards who were untied were also confused. What was going on with this masked man in black?

The captain of the guard had seen through everything. He smiled and explained to his men, "Because she doesn't dare to get involved with the Demonic Path. If she continues to tie us up at this time, wouldn't that be helping the Demonic Path? When the Immortal Master of Yao Chi hears about this, do you think she can escape the pursuit of the Holy Land?"

376. Yellow Bird

"There are actually evildoers in Chiyue City. Don't they want to die?" Qian Lin was speechless about the current situation. The situation was already a bit chaotic, and now the evildoers got involved. Well, it has become a complete mess.

According to the guards, it seems that a team of the Qilian family that was hunting down Qilian Qing encountered the vicious hands of the Blood Sea Sect monks, and the entire team was killed, so now Qilian Qing may also be related to the evil sect.

When dealing with people who have connections with the evil ways, the city lord doesn't need to talk about reason and can just send out a large army to encircle and suppress them.

What started as a minor skirmish is now gradually developing into a major war.

"Let's deal with the evil first." The sense of justice in Ye Qiuhan's heart was burning.

It would have been fine if she didn't know that there was a demonic sect in Chiyue City, but now that she knew, as a disciple of the holy land, she couldn't just sit back and watch!

Everyone has the responsibility to deal with the evil!

"Look for Qi Lianqing and the Demonic Path at the same time. You can deal with whichever side you encounter first. But don't expect me to help you in the battle. After all, you know my current condition."

"It's okay. If a fight really breaks out, just hide behind me. The demon hiding here must not be too strong. It's impossible for a high-level demon to take such a big risk and lurk here." Ye Qiuhan was full of confidence. She guessed that the demon hidden in Chiyue City was at most at the Body Tempering Realm.

There is no way a demon at the Grandmaster level would risk being discovered and killed by the righteous path at any time to come here.

Only a demon who is neither good nor bad at the Body Tempering Realm would be sent to do such a mission that is almost suicide.

"That makes sense... Oh, just as you said, it will come true. My group of useless men have discovered Qi Lian Qing and are following her now. Let's go straight to her!" Qian Lin nodded, and the jade pendant on her waist suddenly began to glow, bringing her great news.

Those useless guys actually brought such good news at this most critical moment, which made Qian Lin's dissatisfaction with them disappear instantly.

No need to think about it, just go find Qi Lian Qing!

……

"Brother Xu Qing, some of the people from before are still following us. What should we do? Kill them?"

"No, they are outnumbered and powerful. Killing these spies will only anger the other side. We are not fighting at home, so we need to be careful about everything." Xu Qing, a Body Tempering Realm cultivator who had just delivered a message to Qian Lin, immediately rejected this suggestion. They are good residents who abide by the law. How can they kill people at will in the city?

Even if you want to kill him, you have to go to a place outside the city where there is no one guarding him.

Killing someone in the city is literally courting death.

"So let them follow us like this? Their goal is the same as ours."

"They are just a few spies. We just need to get the treasure and deliver it to the young lady before the people behind them react, and then they can't do anything." Xu Qing snorted and did not take the spies following him seriously.

As long as the magic sword is in Qian Lin's hands, no matter who is from the Qilian family or not, they are all rotten fish and shrimp!

"How is the encirclement preparation going? When can it be completed?"

"It's almost there. In another quarter of an hour, Qi Lianqing will be cornered by us. He won't be able to escape even if he has wings!"

"Okay, get ready for battle. She won't give up resistance easily."

……

In the block heavily blocked by the guards, a thin layer of blood-red mist that almost no one noticed gradually spread between the streets. Almost in an instant, the blood-red mist had covered about a quarter of the blocked area.

This is a secret technique of the Blood Sea Sect, often used to guard and search for things.

And now, Xue Jue was using the two effects of this secret technique at the same time, being on guard against possible enemies while looking for Qi Lian Qing's trace.
