A Demon’s Path

"He just died like this, it's really cheap for him!" The man in gray kicked Liu Zongkai's lower body fiercely again.

The interrogation disciple stood aside stupidly, watching this scene dumbfounded, his trousers were completely wet.

The gray-clothed man punched the head of the summoned disciple, and with a bang, the disciple lost his head in such a daze.

"Li Yuanchong, kill all the people here. Many people saw us coming in. If we don't kill them, this matter will be discovered sooner or later." The man in gray said seriously.

Li Yuanchong looked indifferent: "Ling Xiao, if I want to kill you, I'm too lazy to do it."

Ling Xiao sighed: "I really don't know, where did your ruthlessness in the new competition go?"

Before leaving, Ling Xiao casually took away Liu Zongkai's soul chain.

The life creed that Ling Xiao believes in: Spending is shameful, saving is honorable;

Ling Xiao and Li Yuanchong had just walked out of Fuyang County and were about to return to Tianjiang City, when suddenly there was a strong wave behind them, shaking the ground violently several times.

The two turned their heads and saw that in the direction of Liu Zongkai's sect, a white light shot up into the sky!

"What's going on here?" Li Yuanchong's face changed slightly: "The Fuyang faction was destroyed by a very strong formation!"

Ling Xiao had a strange expression on his face: "It turns out that your grandfather is not satisfied with your kid's way of doing things. Originally, he wanted to let that person live, but it seems that we have to take that person back to Tianjiang City."

In the empty hall of Tianjiang City, a person knelt down and bowed tightly: "Greetings, Lord City Master!"

Li Xuanyi snorted slightly dissatisfied: "From today onwards, there will be no one named Zhang Wuhen in this world, lest people suspect that I killed the Fuyang faction in Tianjiang City because of robbing talents. Since it was Yuan Chong who saved you , you can follow him from now on. Get up."

"Thank you, City Lord!" Zhang Wuhen was grateful and stood up slowly.

Ling Xiao asked very curiously: "If his name is not Zhang Wuhen, then what will his name be in the future?"

"This..." Li Xuanyi really wanted to encounter a very difficult problem. After thinking about it for a long time, he suddenly jumped up: "Yes, he will be called Li Wuhen from now on!"

Ling Xiao couldn't help muttering in her heart: Your sister!

Li Xuanyi seemed to be very happy for the new name he thought of, with a smile on his face: "Yuan Chong, Li Wuhen will be regarded as a servant of our Li family from now on, and you can teach him the move of Flying Dragon Fall, which can be regarded as a meeting gift."

Zhang Wuhen, oh no, it should be called Li Wuhen now. Li Wuhen saluted Li Xuanyi gratefully again: "Thank you, City Lord."

"Okay, you and Yuan Chong retreat, I have something to say to Ling Xiao." Li Xuan waved his hand, and Li Yuanchong and Li Wuhen retreated respectfully.

"Unexpectedly, you actually have the guts to lie to me." After the two left the hall, Li Xuanyi's expression returned to indifference.

Ling Xiao smiled: "I also never imagined that the Lord of Tianjiang actually wiped out the Fuyang faction in one go in order to silence them."

"Isn't this just what you want?" Li Xuan had a mocking look in his eyes.

Ling Xiao shook his head: "This trial is actually just what you want. In fact, you have already investigated the ins and outs of the matter. You sent Li Yuanchong to prove whether he is a fool who only knows how to listen to you." grandson. Am I right?"

Li Xuanyi was noncommittal: "Go ahead."

"If Li Yuanchong is so reckless that he can't distinguish between right and wrong, and kill Li Wuhen to complete the task, you will naturally give him the soul-returning grass, and let him remain silent for the rest of his life." Ling Xiao smiled and said, "Because you don't need a single A puppet who knows how to follow blindly will be the future heir of Tianjiang City."

Li Xuanyi was very surprised: "It's amazing that you can even guess my thoughts. Why do you have such speculation?"

"I was just guessing at first, but before we left Fuyang County, the light of the formation made me realize that you have been observing your grandson all the time. If you don't want him to be the heir, just It is not possible to send him to other sects to learn art when he is so young. You can become a talent with more training."

In front of Li Xuanyi, a genius respected by everyone in Yaotian Continent, Ling Xiao talked freely, without feeling restrained at all: "And the last action shows that you are teaching Li Yuanchong a truth: cut the grass and roots to avoid future troubles. Although he inherited Your indifference and arrogance, and your ruthless appearance, are in fact just a good grandson who wants to make grandpa smile."

"You can see people's hearts very clearly." Li Xuanyi stood up from the chair and walked slowly to Ling Xiao's side: "So I want him to learn from you, but it's a pity that this child... Hehe, if you are My grandson, I will definitely pass on the city lord position to you."

Ling Xiao cursed secretly: "Fuck you, you bastard, you want to take advantage of your Master Ling?" There are no doors!

"Hey, hey..." Ling Xiao quickly covered up his urge to curse with a smirk: "I guess, you will count Li Yuanchong as a failure in this murder mission, and then re-arrange the mission for him."

Li Xuanyi blinked his eyes a few times: "You guessed half right. All my grandchildren are outside, and I have observed each of them and cultivated them as heirs. Also, this mission Yuan Chong is naturally considered a failure. Because he didn't kill the person he wanted to kill. Besides, I don't have the soul-returning grass. The next task is naturally to get the soul-returning grass."

Ling Xiao rolled her eyes: Li Xuanyi didn't just cheat his father, he even cheated his grandson!

Li Xuanyi just didn't bother to pay attention to what Ling Xiao thought, and threw a jade stone to Ling Xiao casually: "The thing is in Wanzhufeng, which is the territory of Mingyue Mansion, and their disciples are all virtuous as their mansion masters. You must have met the old man Zhao Yang. So, you and Li Yuanchong can decide what to do. Okay, okay, I talked too much today, my tongue is tired, I need to take a rest, you should go out too."

Just as Ling Xiao was about to leave, Li Xuan waved his sleeves, and with a buzzing sound, Ling Xiao was already outside the hall!

"What a supernatural power!" Ling Xiao couldn't help but praise: When I can cultivate to this level, then I can go wherever I like, hehe!

Li Yuanchong was beside Ling Xiao, looking at Ling Xiao curiously: "What did Grandpa tell you?"

Ling Xiao handed the jade to Li Yuanchong: "See for yourself."

After Li Yuanchong browsed through the contents of the jade, his face finally became a little ugly.

This is not called to retrieve the soul grass, this is obviously to steal!

The reason why Wanzhu Peak got its name is naturally because there are many bamboos on the mountain. Ten thousand is an imaginary number, meaning innumerable.

In addition to all kinds of beasts that can make the central spirit masters incarnate on Wanzhu Peak, it is also rich in a precious medicinal material called "soul-returning grass".

The soul-returning grass grows one plant every ten years, and there are only seven plants on the whole mountain.

Once the soul-returning grass is picked, it must be taken within fifteen days, otherwise, no matter what method is used to preserve it, it will wither.

Therefore, the owner of Wanzhu Peak would not pick the seven soul-returning grasses until it was urgently needed.

The so-called fear of thieves thinking about it is even more afraid of thieves stealing. The owner of Wanzhu Peak guards Wanzhu Peak with heavy troops all the year round, and it has become a forbidden area.

All outsiders and unknown identities will be captured. Anyone who resists will be killed.

As time passed, few outsiders dared to approach Wanzhu Peak, and the patrolling disciples became a little careless.

According to the information Li Xuanyi gave to Ling Xiao and Li Yuanchong, the owner of Wanzhufeng is Zhao Tian, ​​the younger brother of the old man Zhao Yang from Mingyue Mansion, who is very arrogant and irritable just like Zhao Yang.

To steal from such a person, one must have a certain amount of courage.

Ling Xiao turned into a three-legged bird, and flew over Wanzhu Peak for a day and a night, and finally found out the arrangement on the mountain and the location of the soul-returning grass.

"It's difficult, it's too difficult." Ling Xiao sighed: "Although those disciples' cultivation base is not good, there are alarm traps everywhere. As long as a disciple is knocked over and fell to the ground, the alarms buried in the ground will would ring. So, the only way to do that was to knock them over and hang them from a tree before they fell to the ground."
