Hunting Immortals and Demons

Soon, more than a dozen mountain wolves devoured Liu Xingren's body.

Lu Yan turned around and left, and found a hidden stone crevice on a cliff. He picked a banana leaf-like leaf, wrapped the 'Vajra Body' secret book and the banknotes, and put them into the stone crevice. , and blocked it with stones.

This stone crevice is not only hidden, but also in a good location. Rain will not invade and there is no fear of the banknotes getting wet by rain.

After hiding, Lu Yan quickly returned to the village.

Marquis Wu of the Liu family has not returned yet.

Lu Yan came to the place where he fought with Liu Xingren, found the scales scattered on the ground, dug a hole and buried them, then entered the village and came to the altar.

Even though he was prepared, the sight of the altar still frightened Lu Yan.

I saw all those red-sleeved soldiers standing upright on the altar, missing their eyes and hearts.

There were even two red-clothed guards and patrol guards standing on the altar.

The remaining red-clothed guards and patrolling guards were sitting around the altar, with no weird smiles on their faces, their faces were calm, their eyes were closed, and they were motionless, but judging by their breath, they were all still alive.

"lucky."

Lu Yan said secretly.

He estimated that Wu Ling's ritual of becoming a demon was originally intended to sacrifice all the Red Guards and Xunfeng Guards. Apparently, the two Wuhous of the Liu family had already killed them before the process reached the end, and these people could be rescued.

"Should we move all the money away?"

Lu Yan thought about it, but finally gave up the idea.

Marquis Wu of the Liu family may return at any time. If he is discovered while carrying silver, he will really be unable to defend himself.

Moreover, it would be abnormal if the bandit's lair did not have any silver, which would lead to questioning by the Liu family's senior management and cause unnecessary trouble.

It’s better to be cautious and not be greedy.

Lu Yan followed the example of the red-clad guards and sat cross-legged next to the altar, closing his eyes and waiting quietly.

Time passed slowly, and the sky turned white.

"Hey, what's wrong with me?"

"Why am I sitting here?"

"That's the magic ritual for martial spirits."

There were sounds coming from all around.

Lu Yan also opened his eyes in time, showing confusion.

At this time, the red-clothed guards and the patrolling guards around the altar woke up. They were not stupid. When they saw the scene on the altar, they naturally understood what was going on, and they all showed fear.

But I was also curious as to what was the reason that interrupted Wu Ling's demonic ritual and saved their lives.

And where did Wu Ling go?

Lu Yan mingled in the crowd, looking appropriately confused and scared.

At this time, Lu Yan felt something in his heart and looked towards the village.

Two burly old men came quickly.

"The clan elder, the clan elder."

"My subordinates pay their respects to the clan elder."

The red-clad guards all bowed down.

But the expressions of the people patrolling the wind changed, and they were a little scared.

Two Wuhous came from the Liu family. If they were attacked, none of them would be able to escape.

But the two Wuhou obviously had no intention of taking action against them. They just glanced at them lightly and said, "You guys are awake."

"Clan elder, but you saved us? Thank you clan elder for saving us."

With a flexible mind, I have already thanked him.

"Well, Wu Ling has been killed by us."

An elder from the Liu clan nodded.

The guards in red clothes all thanked them, and Lu Yan also thanked them.

"Where's Xingren, why aren't you here? Has anyone seen it?"

Another clan elder asked.

Before they entered the cottage, they had already searched for Liu Xingren in the surrounding area, but there was no trace of him. They thought Liu Xingren had entered the cottage.

But after entering the village, there was no sign of Liu Xingren.

Everyone looked at each other.

Liu Xingren, I really haven’t seen him before.

They only remembered entering the village and seeing Wu Ling performing the ritual of becoming a demon. Just as they were about to escape, their minds sank and they fell into darkness. When they woke up, it was already like this.

Liu Xingren, wasn't he always with them? Why is he missing?

The two elders of the Liu clan had a vague feeling in their hearts.

At this moment, two more figures came quickly.

One old man looked to be in his sixties, and the other was younger, about forty.

But they all have one thing in common, they are tall and majestic.

The two Wuhous of the Liu family were already tall enough, but these two were even taller.

He is about the same height as the two Wuhous of the Liu family, about two meters and two, but he is a lot stronger, and his body is covered with thick fat and muscles, like two giant bears.

"The clan elder, the clan elder."

"Meet the clan elder."

This time, it was the patrolman's turn to be surprised.

These two people were clearly the two Wu Hous of the Wu family.

The patrol guards finally breathed a sigh of relief. They were under too much pressure when they faced the two Wuhous of the Liu family just now.

There is a world of difference between a Wuhou and a non-Wuhou.

Without Marquis Wu sitting in charge, a family member cannot be called a family member at all, nor can it occupy the 'bloodline'.

"Liu Yuansong, Liu Yuanfu, you two came here too early. I heard that Wu Ling appeared here. What? Where is Wu Ling? Was he killed by you guys?"

The old man from the Wu family said.

"Old man Wu, don't test it. You have seen it yourself. Wu Ling is undergoing a demonic ritual and is about to step into the Marquis of Wu. The two of us joined forces and it was difficult to kill it. We could only injure it severely. In the end, he was killed. Ran."

A Wuhou of the Liu family, Liu Yuansongdao.

"Ran?"

The two Wu Hous of the Wu family did not fully believe it, but after all they arrived too late and encountered nothing, unable to prove whether Liu Yuansong's words were true or false.

Lu Yan, however, heard something different from the conversation between the two parties.

First, martial spirits can be killed. They don’t really have immortality, but they are difficult to kill.

Second, Liu Yuansong deliberately concealed the information that the ancestor of the Liu family had come. Why?

Does it mean that the ancestor of the Liu family is capable of killing Wu Ling, and has even killed or captured Wu Ling, but he doesn't want the Wu family to know?

Last night, only the two Wuhous of the Liu family, Liu Xingren and him saw the ancestor of the Liu family coming here.

Liu Xingren is dead, and apart from the two Wu Hous, he is the only one who knows.

He planned to let this information rot in his stomach.

If he spoke out, he wouldn't even know why he died.

The two Wu Hous of the Wu family knew that they couldn't get anything out of Liu Yuansong and Liu Yuanfu, so they said coldly: "Search for me!"

"Search together!"

Liu Yuansong also ordered.

Soon, the silver ingots belonging to the Red Sleeve Army were found.

Naturally, the two great clans would not start a war just because of this small amount of silver. They finally negotiated for an equal share, and then each took their people away from here and returned to Changfeng City, leaving only a few people behind to look for Liu Xingren.

In the blink of an eye, three days have passed, and there is no trace of Liu Xingren. Everyone knows that Liu Xingren is probably in danger.

Liu's senior officials were furious and ordered a thorough investigation.

The two Wu Hous of the Liu family knew very well that Liu Xingren was not killed by Wu Ling or at the hands of Wu Ling. He must have died at the hands of humans.

During this period, everyone who participated in the banditry that day was called in for interrogation one by one.

But Lu Yan did it very cleanly, and it was just a second attempt to break the limit. Who could doubt him? In the end, after a lot of trouble, it was settled.

There is also news from the Wu family that Wu Chaokong, the contemporary leader of the Wu family, has also disappeared in the Giant Tooth Mountain.

Lu Yan speculated that Wu Chaokong was probably killed by Wu Ling.

When Wu Chaokong and Liu Xingren fought against Wu Ling, one of them died and the other was injured.

Wu Chaokong was killed in a barren mountain. Most of his body was eaten by wild animals. There are no bones left. It would be strange to find them.

A month has passed since the incident of going into the mountain to slay the bandits, and the incident has slowly calmed down.

At this time, Lu Yancai disguised himself and quietly went into the mountain and took back the 'Vajra Body' secret book and the banknotes.

After counting, there were a total of six thousand taels of silver notes.

In addition to the more than one thousand taels Lu Yan had not spent before, he already had a huge sum of more than seven thousand taels.

"Vajra body."

Lu Yan opened the secret book and read it carefully.
