Cultivation in the Family: Everyone is a villain

Lei Kun Dao Shen Xiao's reputation in the county is not small. After all, he is the fifth elder of the Daluo Sect, the only second-rate power in the county.

In addition to the sect leader Ding Buhai, the Daluo Sect also has three other Grandmaster realm elders and seven elders in the Dan Bao stage. Shen Xiao ranks fifth at the age of 363, which shows that his strength cannot be underestimated in the Daluo Sect. Disdainful.

When he taught Qin Kai a lesson just now, what he revealed was a half-step master level cultivation, which was obviously inconsistent with the outside world's speculation that his cultivation level was only at the Dan Bao stage.

It is simply unheard of for such a person, who is old, powerful, experienced, and of neither high nor low status, to be so afraid of death, almost to the point of being shameless.

After the five people left the official road and officially began to explore the wilderness twenty miles east of the county city, Shen Xiao did what he said just now, letting Hou Yuduan and four others take the lead, while he slowly hung behind. He looked extremely vigilant, causing Hou Yuduan and others in front of him to look at him for a moment.

"Half-step master, even if he encounters an eighth-level demon, not to mention he has the strength to fight, he can at least turn around and run away. He has to hang a mile behind us. This person is really boundless. No wonder Live so long!”

In the dense forest, Bai Dongyu first turned his head and glanced at Qin Kai and Liu Jianghe a hundred meters behind him, then glanced at Shen Xiao five hundred meters away, and complained to Hou Yuduan with a helpless expression.

After hearing this, Hou Yuduan lowered his head and chuckled without saying a word. He kept scanning his surroundings with a rather alert mind.

A ship of ten thousand years must be sailed with caution, and a gentleman does not build walls. Although he did not like Shen Xiao's personality, he had to say that the other party's cautious spirit was worth learning from him.

Of course, the key is that the strength of the four of them is too far behind Shen Xiao, otherwise they wouldn't be pushed to the front and used as living targets by him.

It was almost midnight, and in the quiet night, the occasional shaking of the trees in the dense forest could make people nervous. Although Bai Dongyu was dissatisfied with Shen Xiao in his heart, he knew that he was unable to resist him, so he could only be honest with Hou Yuduan. Really explored the path.

After walking another five hundred meters, Bai Dongyu breathed a sigh of relief.

"One mile further, there is the largest town on the edge of the county town!"

Hou Yuduan nodded and breathed a sigh of relief: "Songyang Town is located east of the county and north of Guandao. There are more than 70,000 people in the town. It is the largest village outside the four cities of Tongling County."

While the two were talking, Qin Kai and Liu Jianghe, who were not far behind them, had already approached. They each clasped their fists towards them and jumped in front.

The four of them had just discussed that they would work in groups of two and take the lead in searching for a mile, and then take turns. Now that Qin Kai and the two of them had completed the mile of exploration and arrived at Songyang Town, it was time for them to change.

Compared with the uninhabited wilderness, densely populated towns are naturally much safer, which is why both of them breathed a sigh of relief.

Regardless of the fact that there seemed to be no dangers along the way, it was about monsters. If something happened, Shen Xiao, who was hanging almost a mile behind, would definitely not be able to count on him. The four of them alone would be able to encounter the most dangerous situation. For weak ninth-level monsters, it will become a life-and-death crisis in a minute, and there is no way for them to stop being nervous.

After walking for more than 300 meters, they could see the dense firelight and houses to the east from a distance. Qin Kai and Liu Jianghe, who were leading the way, suddenly accelerated their speed. Hou Yuduan and Bai Dongyu just said that they wanted to get there quickly. The town, no doubt about his presence, also quickened its pace.

As a result, the speed of the five people in the group could not help but speed up a lot.

After walking forward for more than a hundred meters, they were almost at the gate of Songyang Town. Hou Yuduan and Bai Dongyu estimated that the distance was almost the same, and they speeded up and rushed forward, preparing to replace the two people in front.

"Wait, something's wrong!"

Suddenly, Hou Yuduan reached out and grabbed Bai Dongyu. Looking at Qin Kai and Liu Jianghe in front of him, a hint of solemnity gradually rose in his eyes.

"What's wrong?" Bai Dongyu's face was full of confusion.

"It's too quiet. Qin Kai and Liu Jianghe haven't said a word since just now. Let's not get close yet and check the situation first."

Bai Dongyu nodded after hearing this, with a hint of suspicion on his face, and continued to hang with Hou Yuduan a hundred meters behind the two of them.

We walked more than a hundred meters.

"There is indeed a problem!"

When Bai Dongyu saw Qin Kai and Liu Jianghe passing 500 meters, he did not stop and wait for them to take turns, but continued into Songyang Town, his tone suddenly became solemn.

Hou Yuduan did not speak, but looked back at Shen Xiao, shook his head slightly, and continued forward with Bai Dongyu, reaching the entrance archway of Songyang Town, and found that Qin Kai and Liu Jianghe could no longer be seen, and his heart suddenly became cold. .

Even though Songyang Town was shrouded in darkness, there were still many houses on both sides of the street with lights on, just like a normal town. There was nothing unusual about it from the outside.

A gust of cool breeze blew by, and the two of them looked at each other, feeling slightly frightened and not daring to walk into the town.

"The demonic barrier has entered the body, those two must be possessed by evil spirits!"

Suddenly, a slightly gloating voice came into his ears. It was Shen Xiao who had been hanging behind him and had already walked over.

He was also staring at Songyang Town. Apparently, he noticed the strange behavior between Qin Kai and Liu Jianghe just now.

"Not even a single demon appeared along the way. I thought nothing would happen tonight, but it turned out that I had been targeted for a long time. I was puzzled. You two are obviously weaker, but those two evil spirits are actually... Instead of looking for you, I looked for them..."

Bai Dongyu suddenly felt a chill in his heart. Hou Yuduan only had the peak cultivation level of the Condensing Gang Stage. It was true that he was at the Gathering Evil Stage, but he had been immersed in weapon refining for a long time. There must be a gap in strength between Qin Kai and Liu Jianghe. What Shen Xiao said was also true. That's right.

Hou Yuduan looked thoughtful at the side, then looked at Songyang Town, with a slightly worried expression: "Elder Shen, is possessed by an evil spirit, is there any way to save him?"

When Shen Xiao saw Hou Yuduan's gaze, he suddenly asked curiously: "Why, are you still planning to go in and save people?"

Hou Yuduan showed a normal expression at first, but then he suddenly fell silent when he thought of Shen Xiao's fear of death just now.

He is kind-hearted, but not stupid.

Based on the character Shen Xiao showed just now, if he answered now, he would probably get a burst of ridicule in return, so it would be better to remain silent.

Shen Xiao sneered and cursed: "Idiot, let's not say whether you can find them or not. Even if you find them, the demonic barrier has entered the body and wants to drive away the evil spirits in their bodies. Unless there is a master who is in the second realm of divine connection and uses the virtual altar to The shadow suppresses it, or else it is a Confucian and Taoist scholar who cultivates righteousness and forcibly drives out evil spirits. Do you have such great ability?"

Faced with Shen Xiao's insults, Hou Yuduan continued to remain silent.

"If you find anything tonight, come back with me and report the news. As for those two unlucky guys, you can only hope for your own good. Let's go!"

After Shen Xiao finished speaking, he turned around and took two steps before realizing that Hou Yuduan behind him was not walking with him, and his face suddenly became gloomy.

"You still dare to disobey me. It seems that the lesson I just taught still failed to make you obedient!"

Shen Xiao's domineering attitude seemed to have been integrated into his bones. Although Hou Yuduan and Bai Dongyu did not disobey him at all, they just refused to leave with him, he immediately threatened them, and his hands even gathered a trace of saturated Dan Gang Qi.

Hou Yuduan was a little shaken in his heart. He wanted to go in and save people, but it wasn't entirely because of his kindness.

Let’s look at Shen Xiaoti’s two conditions for saving people. He happened to meet one of them, and there was hope for saving people.

Secondly, Qin Kai and Liu Jianghe belong to the Hongdao Gang and the Xiyun Escort Bureau respectively. These two Hou families are good friends and they are equals. This kind of relationship is much stronger than that of the Daluo Sect. Therefore, he also wanted to deepen the relationship between the three families for the Hou family.

But the problem is Shen Xiao's strength, and he can't resist it. Looking at his domineering expression, if he really does something, there's no guarantee that this person won't go even more extreme.

"Let's go, Yu Duan, there's not much hope for just the two of us to go in and save people!"

At this time, Bai Dongyu also comforted him. From the bottom of his heart, Hou Yuduan's behavior of trying to save people still made him feel a lot of good feelings. Comparing his feelings with others, if he was possessed by evil spirits tonight, he would definitely hope that someone could help him. Come to save yourself.

Hou Yuduan could only nod helplessly in the end, only looked back at the streets of Songyang Town inside the archway, and said nothing more.

Shen Xiao then showed a hint of satisfaction, turned his back to the two of them, and prepared to return to the county town.

But at this moment, he suddenly frowned, raised his eyes to look at the archway in fear, and suddenly his body trembled.

The expressions on the faces of Hou Yuduan and Bai Dongyu next to him at this moment are not much different from his...

Unexpectedly, the three of them were already standing in the center of the street!

The three of them were clearly standing outside the archway in Songyang Town just now and had not entered the street. How could they be standing here in the blink of an eye?

"What happens? Will this town move on its own?"

Bai Dongyuan looked shocked. This was the first time he encountered such a strange thing.

At this moment, Hou Yuduan's pupils were condensed, his Dantian was stimulated, and his whole body was surrounded by Gang Qi. His eyes began to scan around, trying to find any abnormalities. Unfortunately, he did not have the ability to see through evil spirits before he became a Gang Sha.

But on the other hand, Shen Xiao and Bai Dongyu are both above the Jusha stage, but they can't see through the anomaly in Songyang Town at this moment.

This can only mean one thing. The demon they are facing now may be far stronger than the three of them, which is why they can't even see any clues.

The three of them looked at each other with solemn expressions on their faces, obviously thinking of the same thing.

Snap...

A light flickered and suddenly came on from a house near them. The three of them looked at that house as if they were facing a formidable enemy.

Pat… Pat… Pat……

However, this light seemed to have a chain reaction. The lights in the houses came on one after another, and soon the entire street became bright.

"What's going on? Everyone in the town isn't sleeping?"

It was already midnight, and Bai Dongyu knew that what he asked was just nonsense, but the silent atmosphere at this moment really made him a little nervous, so he had no choice but to speak to break the silence.

Hou Yuduan did not answer, but glanced at Shen Xiao's fearful look next to him. A trace of helplessness flashed through his heart, his pupils condensed slightly, and in the eighth orifice of his heart, awe-inspiring righteousness slowly emerged from his pupils.

He not only practiced martial arts, but also had great attainments in Confucianism and Taoism!

Confucians cultivate Haoran's righteousness in the eighth orifice. Only when they reach the realm of Confucianism can they operate it freely. At this moment, the righteousness is condensed in the eyes of Hou Yuduan, and the scene in Songyang Town suddenly changes in Hou Yuduan's eyes...

The streets were littered with corpses, and the houses on both sides were dilapidated.

Broken limbs and broken arms can be seen everywhere.

There was a corpse with only the lower body stuck on the mast five meters away. At the entrance of the alleyway seven meters away, a mountain of meat more than ten meters high had been piled up.

Some of the corpses whose faces could still be seen clearly were full of horror and fear. It was truly a mountain of corpses, a sea of ​​blood, and a forest of flesh and bones.

The whole town is like a hell on earth, which makes people shudder.

A feeling of discomfort surged out of his heart, and Hou Yuduan's gastric juices were like an overflowing river. At the same time as he was nauseated, a feeling of anger also welled up in his heart.

These monsters are simply lawless...

"Yu Duan, what's wrong?"

Bai Dongyu noticed something strange about him immediately, and hurriedly walked to him and asked with concern. Shen Xiao next to him also stared at him.

Hou Yuduan calmed down his mind and was about to pour righteous energy into Bai Dongyu's body to help him see the scene in front of him clearly, when suddenly, there was another strange movement in the town.

Among the houses that had just turned on the lights, black figures slowly appeared on the door curtains, windows, and balconies. Their faces could not be seen clearly, but their red pupils were like wolves at night, all staring at them. The three of them were motionless and extremely strange.

"Three heroes are visiting me in Songyang Town. I have prepared hot tea. Why don't you come in and sit down to rest first before setting off on your journey?"

An old voice sounded from the end of the street, and the three of them immediately turned around, but saw nothing.

"Elder Shen, Brother Bai, Brother Hou, come in quickly and sit down!"

"This tea tastes really good, come in quickly."

The three of them heard the last two voices very clearly, and they knew they were the voices of Qin Kai and Liu Jianghe. They seemed to be really drinking tea, with a sense of comfort in their tone.

"What should Elder Shen do? Can he run away?"

Cold sweat was already dripping from Bai Dongyu's forehead. He had seen evil spirits before, but this was the first time he had seen such a strange situation. Knowing that this demon definitely seemed to have power far beyond his own, he still placed his hope on Shen Xiao. , ask the other person what to do.

"Mom, I want to know what to do, why are you talking nonsense here with you? We didn't even enter this town just now, and we were inside in the blink of an eye. If we run away now and anger the other party, won't we die faster! "

Hou Yuduan shook his head in his heart. Shen Xiao's fear of death meant that he would definitely not be able to come up with any ideas in such a dangerous situation.

"What did you see?"

Bai Dongyu was asked by Hou Yuduan, and his expression suddenly froze. Could it be that what Hou Yuduan and he saw were different?

He pointed suspiciously at the black shadows outside the surrounding houses and whispered: "Human figures, countless human figures!"

Hou Yuduan's pupils condensed. He had great righteousness in him. What he saw was indeed different from the two of them. Just like the normal street in their eyes was a mountain of corpses and a sea of ​​blood in their eyes. At this moment, there were countless people in their eyes. In his eyes, Qing's figure is one resentful spirit after another...

Shen Xiao's chest kept rising and falling, turning a deaf ear to the two people's voices. Looking at the oppressive and silent atmosphere around him, he finally couldn't help it anymore. He pulled out the long blood-colored knife from his waist, pointed it at the nearest house, and stabbed it suddenly.

A wave of righteous cyan sword energy that was approaching shape swept through the powerful Dan Gang in an instant, destroying the house like a tornado, and then the black shadow in the house let out a shrill scream.

"I will fight with you!"

Shen Xiao's move made Hou Yuduan and Bai Dongyu look stunned.

This old guy who is afraid of death has the courage to take action directly!

The next second, the two of them almost couldn't help but curse...

After Shen Xiao cursed angrily and slashed out with his knife, he actually ran out of the archway without looking back. The Dan Gang energy in his body had been activated to the extreme, which showed his determination to escape...

But, can he run away?

Hou Yuduan looked at the identical streets of Songyang Town outside the archway, and his eyes suddenly showed a hint of speechlessness.

Not only Qin Kai and Liu Jianghe were possessed by demonic barriers, but the three of them were also affected.

The inside and outside of the archway are exactly the same, like a mirror world, with the streets of Songyang Town on both sides, which means that no matter which way they run, they will eventually return to the streets of Songyang Town.

Let's not worry about the problem that Shen Xiao can't escape for now. With this knife, he directly stabbed the hornet's nest!

Countless resentful spirits let out bursts of shrill screams and roars, and the true appearance of the entire Songyang Town instantly appeared in front of Bai Dongyu. His legs suddenly softened, and his face was full of fear. Only now did he know, What happened to Hou Yuduan's expression just now...

"Songyang Town was massacred by demons..."
