Ruins of the past

Seeing the martial arts displayed by the eagle demon, Hou Xianglong knew that he was no match.

‘Where did this monster come from? How could his martial arts be so terrifying? ’

‘There is also this method of Gangqi circulation, which is extremely powerful, but I have never seen it before... Which sect does it come from? ’

'This demon's accent definitely doesn't come from the central government, but rather resembles those orchid girls in the capital city...'

While Hou Xianglong was thinking, he retreated violently, and his clothes were torn apart layer by layer under the attack of Gang Qi.

The roaring tornado energy was like a huge drill, hitting him with a billowing heat wave.

Seeing that Hou Xianglong had no way to hide, a shrill cat meow suddenly came.

The harpy suddenly stopped its attack and looked warily towards the direction where the cat's meow came from.

Hou Xianglong, however, caught a glimpse of the other party's flaw at this moment.

I saw him receiving a ball of Gang Qi bombardment, vomiting blood at the same time, and after several rolls, he had already rushed to the side of the mountain road and rolled into the woods.

Upon noticing this scene, a group of blue veins popped up on the harpy's forehead.

In a flash, he chased after him with a roaring aura, instantly smashing a large forest into pieces.

But the woods were getting denser and denser, and under the intense consumption of physical strength, the Gang Qi soon became unsustainable.

The hawk demon looked at the direction where Hou Xianglong disappeared, snorted coldly, and turned to look at the frightened boy in the distance.

With a soft pop, the boy's head fell to the ground, his face still full of horror.

Blood spurted out wildly and fell to the ground in the blink of an eye.

The hawk demon retracted its bloody claws, flapped the wings on its back suddenly, and rose into the sky, continuing to chase Hou Xianglong in the direction of his escape.

And not long after the harpy left, a wild cat jumped down from the tree.

It was this wild cat that screamed just now, giving Hou Xianglong an opportunity to escape.

The wild cat shook its ears and chuckled: "Hou Xianglong was actually attacked by a hawk demon? I have to report it to the king as soon as possible. There will be a huge reward."

But at this moment, a shadow suddenly covered the location of the wild cat.

The wild cat turned its head, and it turned out to be the hawk demon who had gone and returned.

Feeling the murderous look on the opponent's face, the wild cat immediately shouted: "I am a monster under King Tongtian! Don't mess around!"

"Tongtian? A great demon from the Central Plains? I've never heard of it."

After saying that, he pointed out and hit the wild cat on the head.

…

The next morning, in the courtyard of Tianqu Mansion.

When Chu Qiguang learned that Hou Xianglong was going to Wangjiazhuang to investigate his background, he had no intention of stopping him.

Because this information was not secret and could be found out with a little research, a rough interception was meaningless in his opinion.

However, he did not relax his monitoring of Hou Xianglong because of this.

After all, the entire Qingyang County is full of monster gangsters under Chu Qiguang, and Hou Xianglong's every move when he went to Wangjiazhuang was almost under his nose.

But at this moment, listening to Lulu's report, he was still a little surprised: "Someone attacked Hou Xianglong? And killed a cat demon? Do you know what happened?"

Lulu shook her head: "I don't know, but judging from the scene, the attacker is not weak."

Listening to Lulu's description of the cracked ground and smashed trees at the scene, Chu Qiguang touched his chin: "I can't let Hou Xianglong die on my territory. Find him...save him."

"As for those who killed the cat demons under our hands, capture them."

Following Chu Qiguang's instructions, all the humans and demons in Lingzhou immediately started to move.

In the next few days, both the monsters lurking in the dark and the members of the Demon Suppression Division in the light began to mobilize people to find traces of Hou Xianglong.

And Chu Qiguang has looked at the document in his hand again, which is the newly updated knowledge of Saint Qiu Yuebai and the others.

After all, with his current status, it is no longer necessary or necessary to do everything personally. He can just leave the instructions to his subordinates.

…

Outside a village in Qingyang County.

Hou Xianglong walked out of the woods in ragged clothes and covered in blood.

Looking at the smoke-filled village in the distance, he did not enter it immediately. Instead, he took out his compass and observed the bad luck of the place.

Then he did some calculations with his fingers for a while, and thought to himself: "It doesn't seem like there is anything serious about it."

Feeling a sense of hunger in his stomach and fatigue on his body, Hou Xianglong decided to go into the village to rest.

But not long after he entered the village, accompanied by bursts of sound piercing the sky, the hawk demon came on the wind and fell directly into the center of the village.

After a while, a series of screams, roars, and cries echoed in the village.

Immediately afterwards, strong winds rose into the sky, loud roars spread far away, and houses one after another continued to collapse.

Hou Xianglong ran away and roared: "Are you crazy? The Demon Suppression Division will not let you go."

The eagle demon kicked out with a powerful kick, directly smashing a large piece of earth wall and then shot at Hou Xianglong, causing the house to collapse and smoke to spread everywhere.

"If you continue to run away like this, more people will die because of you."

Hou Xianglong gritted his teeth, looked at the ever-changing pointer on the compass, and chose the most auspicious direction to escape.

In this direction, a team of people from the Demon Suppression Division rushed over.

The leader of the team was none other than Baihu Yangling, and the team he led was also one of the teams specially sent by Chu Qiguang to rescue Hou Xianglong.

Yang Ling drew out the demon-slaying knife and shouted at the hawk demon: "Bold monster..."

The hawk demon frowned, and his wings rolled up with waves of aura: "Get out."

The blazing Gangqi swept towards the Demon-Suppressing Division and his party in an instant.

The two sides collided violently, and in an instant, five or six warriors from the Demon Suppressing Division vomited blood and were swept away by Gang Qi.

After a fight, Yang Ling was shocked by the strength of the eagle demon. He quickly shouted to Hou Xianglong on the side: "Follow us!"

Hou Xianglong looked at Yang Ling's face and shook his head: "You can't save me."

After saying that, he turned and left.

For a while, only the people from the Zhenmo Division were left fighting against the hawk demon, but the situation was not optimistic.

The hawk demon killed more than ten soldiers of the Demon Suppression Division in a row, and shattered Yang Ling's demon-slaying knife with its powerful energy.

He shook the blood on his wings, looked at Yang Ling and the others, and said impatiently: "You bitches, don't come in my way again, or I'll kill as many as you come."

After saying that, he kicked off his feet and soared into the sky, continuing to chase Hou Xianglong in the direction where he had slipped away.

Yang Ling looked at the departing figure of the hawk demon with a look of fear on his face: "This monster can fly and has bottomless martial arts... You can fight whenever you want, and you can leave whenever you want. Now you're in trouble."

The truth turned out to be exactly what Yang Ling had imagined. The Demon-Suppressing Division launched several encirclement and suppression campaigns in a row, but despite losing many troops and generals, they could never capture the hawk demon.

On the contrary, the other party can move forward and retreat freely and is always in the initiative.

But Yang Ling could feel that the other party was getting more and more fierce. It seemed that he had not been able to kill Hou Xianglong for a long time, and he seemed to be getting more and more anxious.
