I am not a demon because I have the equivalent scale

For a moment, Wang Zijia relaxed a little after making sure that there was nothing unusual about Tang Keli in front of him. Said: "Tell me about this incident."

"Your Majesty, the Ninth Highness, the matter should have started a few months ago..." Tang Keli recounted.

Wang Zijia frowned and interrupted: "You mean a few months ago? Didn't the report say it was more than forty days? How could such a thing be shortened?"

"Your Highness Ninth Prince, you have misunderstood!" Tang Keli immediately replied seriously:

"The official incident did begin forty-five days ago, but according to the investigation by my subordinates, before that, there were disciples of the Ming family who disappeared, but it was not serious at the time. At first, there were three or five, and then more than ten... ···”

"For a large family like the Ming family with a population of hundreds of thousands, it is normal for a few people to disappear every day. Some things are not relevant, and my subordinates do not dare to report some speculations when reporting."

As Tang Keli explained, things gradually became clearer. They were much more detailed than what was seen in the information, including many details.

"So although the Ming family didn't disappear overnight, they didn't disappear in one place or another?" Wang Zijia asked with a frown.

"Yes, except for the uncertain ones in the early stage, it was roughly divided into three major waves, conducted at three different times. At first, there were only a thousand people, mostly young people from the tribe." Tang Keli said respectfully:

"The second wave included tens of thousands of people, including many sacrificial wines. The last wave included hundreds of thousands of people. The blue sky and white sun collapsed in front of countless people and disappeared without a trace."

"It's interesting. They come in batches from weak to strong. This is not like a simple bloodline spell to curse people." Wang Zijia said to himself.

"My subordinates think so too." Tang Keli hesitated for a moment before saying, "It's quite similar to the Demon Sect's method of raising livestock."

Wang Zijia nodded in agreement, but did not discuss the issue. He asked many more details, and finally said:

"Okay, what should you do? Don't leak the news about my arrival. If you scare this thing away, I'll ask you for your fault!"

"I understand!" Tang Keli bowed again and replied respectfully.

However, he didn't wait for a response for a while, and the room fell silent.

When he looked up, he discovered that His Highness the Ninth Prince, the Peerless Sword Immortal, had disappeared without a trace.

‘This Ninth Prince is really becoming more and more mysterious! But it’s not long since we heard about his fate? ’

······

After leaving the City Lord's Mansion, Wang Zijia did not stop there.

The various incidents were investigated and relevant personnel were questioned. Even Wang Zijia quietly questioned those who had previously participated in the investigation.

However, there are really no clues at all.

Wang Zijia tried his best to investigate for several days, but he had no clue. It was like a dog biting a turtle, with nowhere to start.

It seems that the Ming family simply disappeared.

This made Wang Zijia, who was investigating the matter, even more cautious.

After determining that he could not find a clue, Wang Zijia decisively changed directions.

A large-scale investigation and screening of distant relatives related to the Ming family bloodline began, and spiritual thoughts began to be left on those closest to the bloodline.

The main reason is that without the blessing of the power of Dao Fruit, the demon is just a very powerful control spell that cannot be monitored 24 hours a day, and it is not even inevitable.

After wandering around for more than half a month, Wang Zijia thought of all the ways he could think of.

In the end, I really couldn't find a clue, so I could only choose to wait and see.

While going on various outings with the two children, they walked around and arranged some things, while waiting for the possibility of the other party harvesting the fourth wave of life.

······

On this day, Wang Zijia was taking his two children to carve formation symbols on the cliffs around Blackpool Valley.

For no reason, Wang Zijia felt a palpitation in his heart.

The spiritual sense is almost fried, and the power of calculation automatically triggers an early warning.

In a daze, Wang Zijia saw endless blood, filling the entire Black Pool Valley, and the blood was so rich that it could not be melted away, filling his breath!

No, not just Blackpool Valley City, but also the large plain behind it.

The surprised Wang Zijia immediately patted the two babies.

"Snapped!"

The two babies were skillfully turned into two drawing paper pages by Wang Zijia and put away.

"call!"

"breathe!"

The next moment, Wang Zijia's whole body was covered with hair, and the hairs stood on end.

The force field that enveloped the entire Blackpool Valley City seemed to be nurturing something, as if a strange creature suddenly came to life.

It was like standing on the Nine Heavens and sucking gently at Blackpool Valley City.

"Where is the evil way!"

"ah·······"

"Damn it!"

"How brave!"

"······"

The next moment, various angry denunciations erupted in the city, but each voice was full of surprise and uncertainty, and some were even trembling, showing the panic in their hearts.

I saw that in the entire Blackpool Valley City, nearly half of the remaining hundreds of thousands of people disappeared in an instant.

Regardless of their cultivation level, they all showed no signs or resistance, and disappeared without even the slightest reaction.

Moreover, this time, it was not just the people related to the Ming family who disappeared, some people had almost no blood connection, at least not for several generations.

Wang Zijia was also surprised, but ignored the situation in the city that had exploded again in the valley.

At this moment, he used the spiritual thoughts placed on more than ten thousand people as a lead, combined with the two powers of cause and effect, and time and space, and a weak but clear clue was finally picked out by Wang Zijia.

The golden thread of cause and effect was very weak, as if it would disappear in the next moment, but it stretched firmly into the distance.

Wang Zijia did not dare to delay and followed the direction of the traction.

"Huh? So brave, it's really in the city?"

His eyes were slightly cold, and the strange fluctuations of time and space concealed covered his whole body as his magic power fluctuated. Wang Zijia seemed to have escaped into a different space and disappeared in the current space.

Then, Wang Zijia took a step forward, floated down from the cliff mountain, and rushed towards the city.

"Is this direction... Black Pool Lake?"

Based on the weak induction, Wang Zijia approached quickly.

······

The Black Pool Valley City was built by the lake, so many buildings in the east area belong to lake view rooms.

However, completely different from the high-rise buildings and buildings in the previous life, there are only a dozen courtyards on the entire Black Pool Lake, each of which occupies a large area, with different styles and very high-end decoration.

Although they are not many in number, they occupy most of the best locations in the entire Black Pool Valley.

The most high-end "property" in the entire Black Pool Valley City!

Wang Zijia has searched here a lot these days, and even paid special attention to it. He dug three feet deep into the ground, but found nothing unusual.

However, at this moment, Wang Zijia clearly felt that the weak traction pointed to an empty yard closest to the lake.

"Underground? Is he also a person who likes to build a cellar?"

After Wang Zijia came here, he almost locked the target. However, even so, he still did not sense any underground palace under the yard.

Without any hesitation, he quickly drilled into the ground.

········

At this moment, dozens of feet underground.

An empty hemispherical space is shrouded by a special space stand.

Looking down from the hemispherical dome, an extremely complex huge array altar fills the entire empty square.

The blood-red runes are densely covered, and at this moment they are flashing with strange spiritual light and jumping slightly.

It seems that there is a person trapped in every blood-colored rune, who is now suffering from the extreme torture of refining souls and sucking marrow!

As the runes flickered, the aura of the altar surged. With endless power, it gathered towards the center of the huge circular altar.

After gathering and refining again and again along the way, it finally gathered at the center.

The entire altar looked like a blood-colored demon dragon hovering in it. With a gentle breath, endless power gathered at the core of the head of the altar.

Because of the gathering of blood and qi, the whole space was full of evil spirits, and the wind was constantly raging around the center. It was a scene of evil and crooked practices.

At the center of these strange images, there was a three-legged square tripod made entirely of blood-colored runes, and a young man was sitting cross-legged with his eyes closed.

Under the reflection of the blood-red light, Mingcheng, a young man who was originally handsome, was full of evil charm.

Under his presidency, countless blood and qi gathered in the three-legged tripod made entirely of blood-colored runes.

A blood-colored glazed pill the size of a longan was slowly forming, and the smell of blood filled the air as it spun around.

However, it was not unpleasant to the eye. On the contrary, the whole pill was emitting a strong fragrance that penetrated deep into the bones.

The fragrance of the pill alone could intoxicate many people, and they would even go crazy to get it.

It was a desire that came from the instinct of life, a most primitive desire to devour, which was stimulated by the fragrance of the pill.

The young man originally closed his eyes and floated beside the three-legged cauldron, constantly pinching his fingers, and refining the pill with his whole body and mind as his magic power fluctuated.

"Hmm?"

The next moment, he suddenly woke up, as if he had noticed something.

However, before he could react, a flash of light flashed behind him.

"Swish!"

The blood-colored sword light flashed like lightning, and he was beheaded with one sword.

Not only that, there were four dark red long swords that rolled quickly, crushing his body.

However, no matter the head that flew high or the body that was crushed, no blood flowed out.

"Crack..."

With the dense crisp sound of shattering.

The body of the corpse that Wang Zijia stirred shattered like a ceramic shell.

It was obvious that the young man's life-saving method was triggered.

With a slight spatial fluctuation, the body of the young man Mingcheng suddenly emerged from the side, looking at Wang Zijia with a surprised face.

"Who are you? Well, this feeling... is you!"

Before the young man Mingcheng could continue speaking, Wang Zijia disappeared again.

The young man Mingcheng had no time to do anything, and his body was pierced by the disappeared Wang Zijia again.

His body twisted again, and unlike the last time when he shed his shell, this time his body collapsed quickly, and in the blink of an eye, it turned into a half-human-high rat.
