Mortal Seeking Immortal

Zhuang Yu lowered his voice and said, "Senior, if we go there now, we will definitely be implicated. Our cultivation is too low. If we hinder the cultivators of the City Lord's Mansion from capturing the demon cultivators, we may be blamed."

Ye Zhou already knew what Zhuang Yu meant, and he also had the same intention.

If the person captured by the cultivators of the City Lord's Mansion is really a demon cultivator, once trapped in the city, he may fight back with a desperate mentality. It will be very dangerous for them to rush over.

Ye Zhou was about to lead the team away and patrol the market again.

Unexpectedly, a voice came from behind them: "You guys quickly follow me to capture the demon cultivator!"

As soon as the voice fell, a cultivator in the middle stage of Jindan wearing the uniform of the City Lord's Mansion guard hurried from behind them.

Ye Zhou and his companions belonged to the patrol team in the city, and they were responsible for this area. They did not dare to disobey, and hurriedly followed the person to the cultivator's residential area.

Zhuang Yu and his companions looked extremely ugly. The thing they least wanted to see happened.

On the way, Zhuang Yu sent a message to several clansmen, asking them to be careful and to protect Zhuang Yu.

Not long after, Ye Zhou and his companions, led by the mid-stage Jindan cultivator, went deep into the cultivators' residential area and came to the gate of an ordinary courtyard.

The courtyard gate was wide open, and the magic array arranged outside the courtyard was forcibly broken. The courtyard was in a mess, with traces of various spells left. Several guards from the City Lord's Mansion were searching the courtyard carefully.

The mid-stage Jindan cultivator led the team into the courtyard and asked, "Where is the demon cultivator?"

"The demon cultivator was extremely cunning. I don't know where he got wind of the news in advance. When we arrived, he had already run away. Others had already returned to the City Lord's Mansion to report the matter. It shouldn't take long for the City Lord to order the whole city to search for this thief."

One of the cultivators searching in the courtyard glanced at the newcomer and replied angrily.

"It's just right that you are here. Let them stay here to check if the demon cultivator has left any clues. We will return to the mansion to report. If we can catch up with the city lord to order the arrest of the demon cultivator, we may be able to make meritorious deeds."

Another cultivator who was searching in the courtyard looked at Ye Zhou and his companions.

The Jindan mid-stage cultivator who brought Ye Zhou and his companions here nodded and told Ye Zhou and his companions to stay here to search. They hurriedly left the courtyard.

Hearing that the demon cultivator had left, Zhuang Yu breathed a sigh of relief.

"It seems that we will be delayed here for a long time again today."

Zhuang Shi, who was following behind Zhuang Yu, complained.

Zhuang Yu stepped forward and said to Ye Zhou: "Senior Ye, let us search this yard, you can just rest nearby."

Ye Zhou shook his head and rejected Zhuang Yu's kindness: "Let's search together, this way it can be finished faster, you are responsible for searching outside, I will go inside to see, if you find anything, call me immediately."

After Ye Zhou finished speaking, he walked into a room. The room was in a mess, and it was obviously hastily searched by the monks from the City Lord's Mansion before.

Based on the bed and other things placed in the room, it can be seen that this is a bedroom.

Ye Zhou released his spiritual sense and carefully explored every corner of the room.

I thought he would find nothing, but when his spiritual sense explored the desk, he paused slightly and uttered a light exclamation: "What is this?"

Ye Zhou stepped forward a few steps and looked at the book on the desk that was casually opened by someone. He saw a few small words written in the blank space above.

Looking at the familiar handwriting, Ye Zhou's heart sank. He already knew who the owner of this courtyard was. He frowned slightly and sighed secretly in his heart.
