I'm Actually The Big Villain In The Book

Chapter 856 The mysterious person

That night.

In the east of Linchuan City, in a remote compound.

There were few lights in the courtyard, and it was silent. The owner of the courtyard seemed to have fallen asleep early.

The slightly sweltering night wind was blowing the two red lanterns hanging outside the courtyard gate, and the swaying shadows of the lanterns cast a faint gleam.

At first glance, everything is so quiet, as if this is just an ordinary big house.

However, the vague murderous intent has always been hidden in every corner of the house, and even the insects in the house are silent.

"clatter"

Walking lightly, holding his breath and concentrating on hiding outside the courtyard wall, Wei Changtian raised his head to look at a branch above his head protruding from the wall.

He had used "Thousand Miles of Smoke" on a second rank master during the match this morning, so he found it here without any effort.

Although it is not known how many of the ten people live here, it seems that not all of them are here.

In addition, the second rank master and the others all use the same Saber Technique, so the people living here should be several assassins from the same Sect.

And my goal tonight is to capture anyone back alive, and then find out who is behind the assassination

"Shua!"

With a flash of his figure, accompanied by a gust of wind, Wei Changtian's figure immediately disappeared in place, leaving the moonlight in the sky.

On the other side, five hundred miles west of Linchuan City, at the foot of Changliu Mountain.

The night is like ink, and the rolling mountains are like waves in the night sea, which is very spectacular from a distance.

When Wei Changtian quietly sneaked into the compound to arrest people, Yang Liushi and Xu Quan finally arrived at the Fifth Demon Land after a day's driving.

Similar to Shiwanda Mountain, Changliu Mountain also belongs to the "subtropical monsoon climate" and is not a snowfield like Bailing Mountain. Therefore, the trees in the mountain are very lush at this time, and the lush greenery feels like a fairyland.

But Yang Liushi and Xu Quan didn't come to enjoy the scenery, and the time was tight, so they rushed to the depths of the mountains as soon as they entered the mountain.

The figures of the two flickered in and out of the forest, and after an unknown amount of time, they finally stopped at the foot of the main peak.

Under normal circumstances, if Changliu Mountain is really a place where demons gather, there will definitely be Demonic Beasts showing up at this time.

But Yang Liushi and Xu Quan saw nothing.

Even in retrospect, since they entered the mountain until now, they have never felt any breath of Demonic Beasts.

Nothing.

Yang Liushi is Fox Demon, and Xu Quan is the son of Heavenly Dao who has the blessing of "The Way of the Monster". The two people's perception of monsters is no worse than that of Feng Shui compass.

So it is absolutely impossible for them to ignore any abnormalities, but there really were no Demonic Beasts around them along the way.

Then this is very odd.

Not to mention that Changliu Mountain is the fifth demon land as famous as Shiwan Dashan and Bailing Mountain, even if it is an ordinary mountain, you should have encountered a few Demonic Beasts after so long.

So what is the situation in Changliu Mountain?

"Ma'am, do you want to go to the peak to have a look?"

Looking around, and then looking up at the main peak hidden in the night, Xu Quan whispered, "You should be able to find a few monsters there."

"."

Yang Liushi, who was dressed in black, frowned, but did not answer immediately.

She has lived among the 100,000 mountains for decades, and she is far more familiar with the situation in the demon land than Xu Quan, so she naturally understands how weird the current situation is.

From Yang Liushi's point of view, there are only two possibilities if there are no Demonic Beasts in places like Changliu Mountain.

One, something happened here that made all the Demonic Beasts run away, or die.

Second, the Demonic Beasts in the mountains are deliberately avoiding themselves and Xu Quan, that is, hiding.

The second situation is undoubtedly a bit too reluctant.

Because even Su Qi didn't know about their trip to Changliu Mountain, how could the demon king of the fifth demon land know in advance.

Taking a step back, even if the demon king here knows, he cannot make all the Demonic Beasts hide obediently.

After all, Demonic Beasts are not human beings. Most Demonic Beasts have extremely low spiritual intelligence and behave like ordinary beasts if they are not transformed. Even the Demon King cannot directly order them.

Therefore, it should be very difficult for the situation of "one monster is hard to find".

And this way.

"Well, let's go."

Gently nodding her head, Yang Liushi didn't continue to guess, and soon went straight to the summit of the main peak of Changliu Mountain together with Xu Quan.

The moonlight sprinkled spots of silver light through the gaps in the leaves, and it seemed that there was no living thing in the whole mountain except the two of them, and it was strangely quiet.

There is no doubt that something must have happened in Changliu Mountain.

And it happened only recently.

Wei Changtian was just about to "borrow soldiers" from the Fifth Demon Land on the front foot, and something happened here on the back foot. Such a coincidence obviously has the meaning of "the halo of the protagonist".

But it's normal when you think about it.

After all, although Wei Changtian is not the protagonist, the other person is.

"Dage, what do we do next?"

The line of sight returned to Linchuan City.

In the same courtyard, four men were discussing matters in a secret room.

The two second ranks and the two third ranks are both the assassins who assassinated Wei Changtian this morning, and they both come from the number one sect in Dagan territory, the Nine True Sect.

Taoism Jiuzhen means nine kinds of real people in the heaven.

Since this Sect took such a name, it means that they are following the path of Taoism, and their strength is very strong.

But no matter how powerful it is, it will not be so easy to send four top third-rank masters to Linchuan at once. It is estimated that Jing Guoqing has promised many benefits in private.

It's just that their behavior today undoubtedly means that there is another person behind them, and this person has given more "benefits" than Jing Guoqing

"Dage, then Su Qi is not stupid. Today's matter must have become suspicious, and Jing Guoqing probably won't listen to our words."

A long-faced man frowned and said, "Don't mention Wei Changtian, he will definitely find an opportunity to take revenge on us in the future."

"Whether we will leave or stay next, should we make plans early?"

"Not in a hurry."

On the other side, a man in yellow quickly replied, "So what if Su Qi and Jing Guoqing are suspicious?"

"If we leave, who else in Linchuan can beat Wei Changtian?"

"As for Wei Changtian, hey! He's not a god, as long as we're careful, how can he find us?"

"makes sense."

Everyone nodded their heads when they heard the words, quite approving of this.

And when the worries in my heart gradually receded, the rest was puzzled.

"Dage, I still don't understand why the Sect Leader ordered us to do it all of a sudden."

"That's all, the key is why did the other six people do the same?"

"No matter how powerful the Sect Leader is, he can't order those six people, right?"

"Who knows, maybe the Sect Leader is also entrusted by others. In short, we just obey the orders, and the benefits are not lost to us anyway."

"Right."

"."

The candles flickered, and the conversation in the room continued.

But Wei Changtian outside the house frowned slightly.

After pondering for a while, he didn't enter the house to arrest people as originally planned, but turned around and left the place, going back wherever he came from.
