I Have Five Senior Brothers

When night fell, Gu Qingqing and the others returned to their respective rooms, except Si Lin and Yue Zhao.

The two used the invisibility charm provided by Rong Ye to hide themselves as much as possible, quietly waiting for midnight to come.

In the room, Gu Qingqing and Yun Ran did not sleep, but sat cross-legged on the bed, waiting for the Soul-Eating Beast to appear.

The night was getting deeper and deeper, and as time passed by, there was no movement at all outside. They almost thought that the Soul-Eating Beast would not come.

Yunran was about to communicate with Gu Qingqing when there was a sudden knock on the door. She was startled, and she and Gu Qingqing looked at each other, and they both looked at the door at the same time.

The knocking on the door was the same as last night. It was slow at first. After finding that Yunran and Gu Qingqing didn't respond, the knocking became faster and faster and harder.

Immediately afterwards, a voice similar to Yue Zhao's came from outside, asking Gu Qingqing and Yunran to open the door for it.

Gu Qingqing and Yunran were not confused, but sat on the bed without moving.

After waiting for a while, the knocking on the door became more and more urgent, and the door shook violently, as if it would fall apart at the next moment.

Yunran and Gu Qingqing had already experienced it. They were not as worried as last night. Instead, they quietly watched the vibration of the door getting louder and louder.

While Yunran was still thinking that the movement of the soul-eating beast was the same as before, with no change, Gu Qingqing suddenly moved.

Her figure flashed and she came to the door of the room. Then, she took out something from the storage bracelet. Yunran's sharp eyes saw that it was something like a puppet.

She saw Gu gently bite his fingertips, squeeze out a drop of blood, and smear it on the puppet's eyebrows. The puppet suddenly grew in size and became the size of an adult.

Gu took a step back gently, and under Yunran's surprised gaze, he manipulated the puppet to open the door.

After the door opened, a red light suddenly hit the puppet. The puppet fell directly to the ground, and Gu Qingqing was face to face with the thing outside the door.

It was hard to see the thing clearly in the dark, but its blood-red eyes were very clear. Although the red light appeared very quickly, Gu Qingqing still saw that the red light came from these eyes. Came out from inside.

At this time, the owner of those eyes also realized that he had mistaken the target. A fierce light flashed in his eyes, and a red light went straight to Gu Qing's head. Gu Qing tipped his toes and directly avoided the red light. The red light It shot onto the wall behind her and disappeared.

Gu Qing took this opportunity to come to the owner of the eye. She took out a talisman in her hand. After tearing it up, the surrounding area immediately became as bright as day, allowing her to see clearly what was outside the door.

It was the same as the statue she had seen before. It was all black and looked a bit like a lion, but not a lion. Its tail was like a snake's tail. Its body was covered with scales and its claws were very sharp. It was the soul-eating beast they guessed.

The soul-eating beast seemed to be a little afraid of light. After being illuminated by the light, it seemed a little anxious. Its claws kept digging at the ground. Its blood-red eyes looked at Gu Qingqing fiercely. Its mouth was wide open and its tongue was licking its lips. It seemed that It was as if he wanted to eat Gu Qingqing.

It suddenly raised its head and made a roaring movement, but there was no sound. Just when Gu Qingqing was confused, he suddenly felt something attacking his consciousness!

Her consciousness became very powerful after she became the Heavenly Dao of Xuantian Continent. Although she could not fully call it, she could not attack it casually. The attack of the soul-eating beast might be useful to others, but it was not effective for Gu Qingqing. In other words, it just felt like being pricked by a needle, but it didn't hurt.

Seeing that Gu Qingqing did not faint as he thought, the soul-eating beast flashed a hint of surprise in its eyes, and was about to launch a second attack when its body was tightly entangled by Gu Qingqing's Hunxian Ling.

"Shut up!" A mysterious and ethereal voice came from Gu Qingqing's mouth, and an inconspicuous light fell on the Soul-Eating Beast.

The next moment, the mouth that the Soul-eating Beast had just opened closed tightly. No matter how hard it struggled, it could not open it. Its blood-red eyes were no longer fierce. The look it looked at Gu Qingqing was full of disbelief. It was completely unexpected. Gu Qingqing actually has such ability.

"Break this illusion, or I will kill you directly!" Gu Qingqing stood in front of the soul-eating beast and said coldly.

The soul-eating beast glanced at Gu Qingqing and turned his head away, as if he didn't want to cooperate!

Gu Qingqing's eyes turned cold, a sneer curled up on her lips, and she took out a dagger from the storage space, which was exactly the one Zhao Tonghai gave her before.

"You won't be able to lift the illusion, right?" She chuckled, bent down, and spoke in the Soul-Eating Beast's ear, "Your eyes are quite pretty. I wonder if they will still look so pretty after they are dug out?" "

As she spoke, she held the dagger close to the Soul-Eating Beast's eyes.

Although the Soul-eating Beast turned its head stubbornly, it had been observing Gu Qingqing's reaction with the corner of its eye. When it realized that she was really going to take action, it was frightened. It did not dare to turn its head for fear of being accidentally injured by the dagger. I can only dispel its illusion in a spineless manner.

…

Si Lin and Yue Zhao waited in the corridor for a long time, but nothing happened. They immediately realized something was wrong.

"That's not right. According to Qing Qing's description, the time for knocking on the door for the first time has passed. We must have missed something." Yue Zhao frowned, looked at the empty corridor, and said to Si Lin.

"Well, that's not right." Si Lin responded, focusing on the corridor.

"Could it be that the other party has other means?" Yue Zhao guessed.

Si Lin didn't say anything. He thought for a moment and then said uncertainly, "Could it be an illusion?"

"Yes, why didn't I think of that?" Yue Zhao's eyes lit up, "Qingqing and Yunran should be in the illusion created by each other, so they can hear the knock on the door, but we can't hear or see it!"

"Yeah." Si Lin responded, not feeling relaxed.

"We can't see it, is it dangerous?" Yue Zhao frowned and asked in a deep voice.

"I don't know." Si Lin's voice was a little muffled, and he was obviously not in a good mood.

Yue Zhao pursed her lips, closed her mouth, and began to think of ways to break the other party's illusion so that she could rescue Gu Qingqing.

Just when the two of them were at a loss what to do, they suddenly felt the space at Gu Qingqing's door fluctuate. The two of them immediately showed up and looked over. Their eyes were directly stimulated by the sudden bright light and they subconsciously closed their eyes.

"First senior brother, second senior brother." Gu Qingqing was not surprised to see Si Lin and Yue Zhao, and called directly.

When the two heard Gu Qingqing's voice, they immediately opened their eyes. Seeing that Gu Qingqing was unharmed, they immediately breathed a sigh of relief. Only then did they see the soul-eating beast tied into a ball by Huxian Ling on the ground.

"Qingqing, are you okay?" Si Lin walked quickly to Gu Qingqing, lowered his head, and asked Gu Qingqing with concern.

"Elder brother, I'm fine." Gu Qing shook his head to express that he was fine.

"Is this the Soul-Eating Beast?" Yue Zhao asked, staring at the cocoon-like thing on the ground.

"Yes, this is the Soul-Eating Beast. It can create illusions. That's why you couldn't hear the knock on the door last night and couldn't sense its presence!" Gu Qingqing explained briefly.

"My senior brother and I have already thought about it, and we are still thinking about how to rescue you." Yue Zhao and Si Lin looked at each other, a hint of surprise flashed in their eyes, and they were a little surprised by Gu Qingqing's reaction.

"I also reacted when it knocked on the door." Gu Qingqing looked very calm at this time, "It stands to reason that you are in the corridor. If it really appears, you will definitely notice it. It is impossible for it to knock on the door. After holding the door open for such a long time, I immediately thought that Sister Yun and I might have been pulled into an illusion, so I grabbed it and let it release the illusion."

"That's right, senior brother and I didn't feel its existence just now." Yue Zhao looked at the way Gu Qing spoke, with a smile on his lips.

"We have all underestimated this guy. Not only can it create illusions, but it can also attack spiritual consciousness. Its eyes will even emit red light. If it is hit, it will faint directly. I just used a puppet to escape the disaster. ." Gu Qing kicked the Soul-Eating Beast with his foot, very dissatisfied with the Soul-Eating Beast's behavior.

Hearing this, both Yue Zhao and Si Lin were a little surprised. Even Yun Ran, who had been watching Gu Qingqing's movements, was very surprised. She didn't know that the soul-eating beast was so powerful!

At this moment, others felt something was wrong and walked out of the room.

"Qing Qing, what is this?" Zhuo Tingqiu asked with surprise and confusion on his face as he looked at the things bundled up on the ground.

"This is the soul-eating beast I mentioned before!" Gu lightly glanced at the others and said.

Except for Yue Zhao, Si Lin and Yun Ran who were just present, everyone else was very surprised to see the Soul-Eating Beast. It was also the first time for them to see the Soul-Eating Beast. They looked around the Soul-Eating Beast for a long time. What is the Soul-Eating Beast? It had been seen like this before. If it hadn't been controlled by Gu Qingqing, it would have wanted to directly attack everyone with a spiritual consciousness!

"Is this the culprit that caused so many people to disappear? It doesn't look that powerful." Zhao Yan glanced at the Soul-Eating Beast with disgust, glanced at Gu Qing, and said disdainfully.

"Yes, it's really not very powerful. It just creates an illusion and a spiritual attack that you can't break." Gu Qingqing said in a very calm tone without even looking at Zhao Yan.

Both Si Lin and Yue Zhao already knew how powerful the Soul-Eating Beast was. When they heard Gu Qingqing say this, they knew that she was dissatisfied with Zhao Yan. A smile flashed in their eyes, while the others were shocked and did not expect the Soul-Eating Beast at all. It will be so powerful!

There are many monsters that can create illusions, but there are not many monsters that can attack with spiritual consciousness. Even among them, there are not many people who master this spell!

Zhao Yan's face stiffened for a moment. She didn't expect that Gu Qingqing would directly attack her. Her eyes when looking at Gu Qingqing were full of anger.

"You said it can attack with consciousness, that's it? We haven't seen it before." Zhao Yan muttered in a way that everyone could hear.

"Do you want to try it?" Gu Qingqing looked at Zhao Yan in surprise, as if she couldn't imagine that she would have such an idea.

Zhao Yan was choked and wanted to say something, but was stopped by Si Lin's look.

"Okay, we have captured the Soul-Eating Beast. Now let's see how we can find its owner!" Si Lin stopped Zhao Yan with his eyes, turned around and said to the others.

"Jun Wu and Nan Hua haven't come back yet. Let's wait until they come back." Yue Zhao glanced at the soul-eating beast and said to Si Lin.

"Okay, then let's..." Si Lin was about to speak, but saw a change in Rong Ye's face and asked hurriedly, "Xiao Wu, what's wrong with you?"

"The talisman seal I gave to Lao San and Jun Wu was crushed. They are in danger." Rong Ye's expression changed and he said to Si Lin.

Hearing this, Si Lin and the others' expressions changed.

"Something happened at the City Lord's Mansion. Let's go to the City Lord's Mansion now!" Si Lin looked outside, and after finishing speaking, he took the lead in setting off.

The others followed Si Lin and left the inn one after another. Gu Qing thought for a moment and followed with the Soul-Eating Beast.

Fortunately, they are all cultivators, and the weight of the Soul-Eating Beast is nothing to them, otherwise it would be really difficult to carry it!

…

The City Lord's Mansion of Wuyun City.

Nan Hua and Jun Wu watched as the middle-aged man who looked like a demon used blood to repair his wounds for a long time, but the wounds only recovered a little. They were both a little surprised.

Then the middle-aged man came out of the room and came to the rockery in the middle of the yard. He touched a part of the rockery with his hand. A hole wide for one person immediately appeared next to the rockery. The middle-aged man went directly into the hole. The hole was next to him. Just close it after entering.

Nan Hua and Jun Wu waited for a while, and were thinking about whether to follow them, when they saw the middle-aged man hurriedly walked out again. In the darkness, the middle-aged man's face was not very good-looking. Nan Hua and Jun Wu were a little surprised, and were about to As he followed, he saw the middle-aged man suddenly stopped.

He looked around with vigilant eyes, and passed several times where Nan Hua and Jun Wu were hiding. Nan Hua and Jun Wu quickly hid themselves so that the middle-aged man would not find them.

After watching for a while, the middle-aged man seemed to find nothing and hurriedly walked out. Nan Hua and Jun Wu followed immediately.

They only followed about ten meters away before the Zhongnan man stopped again, and his figure suddenly disappeared from the place.

Nan Hua and Jun Wu were startled and immediately looked around with caution, guarding against the appearance of the middle-aged man.

Jun Wu felt a palm wind coming from behind him. He was startled and immediately rushed forward. A red light shot from behind him to the big tree next to him, and the big tree was directly split into sections.

The glazed frost flower fan appeared in Nan Hua's hand, and he flicked it behind Jun Wu. A strong wind shot from the fan towards the middle-aged man. The middle-aged man's figure disappeared again, and the wind dissipated directly.

Jun Wu took out his scimitar, looked at each other with Nan Hua, and both looked around cautiously.

At this moment, a figure suddenly appeared above their heads. The man was wearing a black and red cloak on his upper body, armor on his shoulders, his chest exposed, a thick belt on his waist, armor on his legs, and a pair of black feet. Military boots were the middle-aged man who had changed his clothes.

He quickly formed a seal with one hand, and a blood-red magic circle appeared above his head, enveloping Nan Hua, Jun Wu, and him inside.

Nan Hua and Jun Wu saw that something was wrong, and before they were enveloped by the magic circle, they crushed the talisman seal given by Rong Ye before.
