"There are only two ways for demons from outside the realm to pass through the heavenly barrier set up by the ancestor gods in this world."
"One relies on planting demonic seeds in the bodies of a large number of believers, and then summoning them to come here through special rituals."
"This method often takes a lot of time, but at the same time, it has an advantage. The extraterrestrial demons who come here through this method will often have at least 30% of their own strength."
In the small courtyard of the Chu family, the supervisor named Gu Yuanhuai was calmly explaining to everyone about the demons outside the territory.
"It's only 30% of the trouble?" Meng Ziliang on the side couldn't help but took over the conversation and muttered in a low voice.
The other gold guard was also the woman among the two, named Xia Jingru. When she heard this, she looked at Meng Ziliang and said: "The heavenly barrier cast by the ancestor gods contains the law of attainment, which is the most supreme
One of the methods."
"For most demons outside the territory, this barrier is already an insurmountable chasm. The few who get what they want will have most of their power wiped away by the great laws contained in the barrier during the process of crossing. This is
The price that the demons need to pay for violating the laws of heaven, and relying on the method of demon seeds to descend is already the way to minimize this price."
Xia Jingru's face was serious, and Meng Ziliang could only smack his tongue secretly after hearing this, not daring to say another word.
Gu Yuanhuai on the side continued: "The other way of arrival is relatively faster."
"All it takes is a specific medium. He can be something that the extraterrestrial devil once left in this world that contains his original power. It can also be a descendant of his bloodline inheritance. There are also some extremely powerful ancient god-level devils.
You can directly summon extraterrestrial demons with your own power."
"Creatures possessing these media may, through active or bewitched methods, become the puppets of those monsters and allow them to be born here."
"But monsters born in this way are usually extremely weak. At this time, they often choose to go on a killing spree and use the flesh and blood of living creatures to restore part of their strength."
"Among them, the blood relatives of the host are often the first choice of these monsters because they share the same origin."
Gu Yuanhuai said this, paused slightly, and then continued.
"We have carefully compared the death list of the Zhang family and found no trace of Zhang Quan. He has disappeared since that day."
Everyone who heard this was frightened. Chu Qingxiao also looked up at Xia Jingru and said: "You mean, Mr. Zhang summoned monsters from outside the territory, became his host, and then killed more than seven hundred people of his own."
People from the Kou tribe..."
Such speculation made everyone present take a breath of cold air.
"We have been to the Zhang family's yard. Even after half a month, we can still feel the scent of monsters remaining there." Xia Jingru took over the conversation and said.
"Therefore, we believe that this inference is currently the most likely."
"But I don't understand what this has to do with us?" Chu Zhaozhao also asked at this time.
Xia Jingru glanced at Chu Zhaozhao and then said: "Most of the time, the extraterrestrial demons use the host's extremely strong desire to confuse the other party and achieve the purpose of coming."
"In a sense, this will be a fair deal."
"After he responds to that desire, he must help the host fulfill that desire. Only then can he fully control the host's body and become his true master. That is, from this moment on, the birth ceremony can be truly completed."
"As for Mr. Zhao, what do you think his strongest wish would be for him half a month ago?"
Xia Jingru's question made everyone stunned.
Half a month ago, it was the day when Zhao Nianshuang accepted Chu Qingxiao and Chu Zhaozhao as his direct disciples, and at the same time took away Zhang Quan's spiritual sword and drove them out of Tianxuan Mountain.
The situation between the Chu family and the Zhang family has reversed.
The Chu family suppressed them in many ways. Presumably at that stall, Mr. Zhang deeply hated the Chu family, especially Chu Zhaozhao, who caused all this!
"You mean, the agreement reached by Mr. Zhang and the demon may be to take revenge on Zhaozhao?" Chu Qingxiao also came to his senses and asked with a solemn expression.
Xia Jingru nodded and was about to say something, but Ziyu on the side muttered: "That's not right, his spiritual sword was taken away by his uncle, and his sect was expelled by his uncle. Logically speaking, he
Shouldn't the one you hate the most be your junior uncle? Why do you have to kill Chu Zhaozhao?"
After hearing this, Gu Yuanhuai said: "Cowardly people are often like this, they only dare to swing a knife with the weak."
"Zhang Quan, who can be bewitched by the demon, must have a bad character. For a person like him, there is no courage to hate someone like Zhao Nianshuang..."
"It makes sense." Ziyu nodded in agreement, but then blinked and looked at the two of them: "Do you people from the Tiansi Supervisor understand this?"
"That's not true, it's just an inference from the result." Gu Yuanhuai said.
"Reverse the result? What result?" Ziyu was a little confused.
Xia Jingru's face darkened at this moment, and she said quietly: "If he wanted to kill Zhao Nianshuang, then he wouldn't be killing the mere 700 members of the Zhang family..."
"But the whole Wancheng."
"Of course, in fact, as long as you give him some time to grow up, it is not difficult for him to do this. So I hope that for the sake of your own wealth and life, and for the two of us to complete this job, I hope you will do the following.
Please cooperate with our work for a few days."
After saying this, Xia Jingru changed the subject and looked at everyone, saying: "By the way, I would like to remind you that when the Jinwei of the Supervisory Office were carrying out the task of wiping out the demons outside the territory, they had to deal with officials and civilians below the level of Yuzhou Mu.
He has the right to kill first and report later.”
Everyone was stunned when they heard this, and at this moment they saw the cold light flashing in Xia Jingru's eyes.
They were excited and nodded hurriedly at that moment.
…
"What! I want to live with the two of them!?" In the small courtyard of the Chu family, Chu Qingxiao looked at Xia Jingru and Gu Huaiyuan in front of him with his eyes wide open in disbelief.
As soon as he said this, Chu Zhaozhao's face turned red.
Ziyu, who was about to say the same thing as Chu Qingxiao, was stunned for a moment after hearing what Chu Qingxiao said, and then looked at Chu Qingxiao.
Seeing the embarrassment on the young man's face, she suddenly became furious, forgetting her original intention, and asked angrily: "What do you mean? Are you at a disadvantage living with this girl?"
"..." Chu Qingxiao suddenly felt helpless towards Ziyu who couldn't figure out the conflict of priorities.
Facing the excited Chu Qingxiao, Gu Huaiyuan just nodded calmly: "Yes."
"Why?" Chu Qingxiao asked confused.
"According to our speculation, Zhang Quan's first target should be Miss Zhaozhao, but you and Ziyu are both disciples of Tianxuan Mountain. I wonder if he will hate you so much and include you in his revenge."
So we need the three of you to eat and live together in the next few days so that you can be protected by us." Gu Huaiyuan said.
Xia Jingru also said immediately: "The extraterrestrial demons are extremely powerful. Even if they are newly born and weak, they should not be underestimated. This is not to mention that most demons have some weird abilities that are difficult for ordinary people to understand. We must be careful when dealing with such existences."
"If the three of you are separated, the monster may take the opportunity to attack at any time. The two of us don't have three heads and six arms, so it is very likely that we will not be able to take care of it, so I hope that the three of you can cooperate with the two of us."
Chu Qingxiao frowned when he heard this, not because of the other party's request, but...
"But as you two said, Zhang Quan is very likely to hate Wu Jiwu because of Zhao Zhao. Does that mean that the entire Chu family, who are of the same clan, are also likely to be hated?"
As soon as Chu Qingxiao said these words, Chu Zhaozhao's expression suddenly changed. Ever since the two Golden Guards of the Supervisor Tiansi appeared, they had been led by each other, and everything the other said seemed to be intentional or unintentional.
to lead them.
At this moment, after being reminded by Chu Qingxiao, Chu Zhaozhao also realized this.
Although Chu Zhaozhao was dissatisfied with many people in the clan after what had happened before, he was of the same origin as them after all, so he couldn't help but feel worried at this moment.
"Of course it's possible." The other party said calmly.
"Then why don't you two try to protect them?" Chu Qingxiao asked again after hearing this, looking a little confused.
After hearing this, Xia Jingru blinked his eyes, as if he heard a joke, and a smile suddenly appeared on his face that had been stern since they met: "Because people also have a price."
"The lives of the three of you are precious. If anything goes wrong, it won't be easy for Tianxuan Mountain to explain to you, and Jianzheng will also punish you harshly."
"Whether it's the Chu family or Wancheng, no matter how many ordinary people die, as long as they can get rid of the monster..."
