Chapter 78 The town is weird, the danger of the divine court is beginning to show, let Jiang Nan sol
Jiang Nan quickly got dressed and went out to look around.
I felt relieved when I found that Zhao Xu was sleeping soundly against a door, Yong'an and Shangguanjun were breathing evenly, and Wang Cheng and others were also breathing.
As for chasing Tang Xuelian... he knew that even if he chased her now, he wouldn't be able to catch her.
If it were so easy to catch him, Li Yuanlong would have chased him instead of Shang Zheng.
You must know that Dean Li Yuanlong is a strong man in the Martial Emperor's second level.
Even the Martial Emperor couldn't catch up, not to mention that he was only a warrior at the peak of the Dan Palace Realm, so the gap was not that big.
After using the secret technique, I still don’t know where she has escaped to at this time.
Maybe hundreds of miles away.
Jiang Nan returned to the house and closed the door.
Shenhun looked at the densely packed qi-blood fruits on the three-color tree.
After careful counting, there were actually two hundred and ninety-seven!
Nearly three hundred Qi and Blood Fruits...
His expression was startled at first, and then his mouth gradually widened.
This Tang Xuelian... is so good.
The only bad thing was that he left before finishing the work, which made him feel a little bit pained.
He quickly took off his clothes and went into the bathroom to take a shower, washing away the heat from his body.
Then he returned to the bedroom.
Without any hesitation, he directly started to swallow the Qi and Blood Fruits to practice.
He was originally preparing to attack the Fierce Sun Realm, but he was temporarily stopped at this moment.
For him, the power of the divine and demonic bodies always comes first.
As Tang Xuelian left, the red mist in the town also disappeared.
The fog gradually faded away.
The town was quiet except for the occasional sound of wind blowing leaves.
There are stars in the sky.
The night is dark.
Zhao Xu gradually woke up from his deep sleep.
He stood up quickly and looked around quickly.
Shenhun detected that the eldest princess's aura was long and calm, Shangguan Jun was fine, and Jiang Nan was also normal.
"Why did you fall asleep just now?"
Zhao Xu touched his head, puzzled.
"Is it because this period of time was too stressful and the nerves were stretched to the limit, so the soul developed self-protection?"
Zhao Xu thought for a while, and it seemed that this was the only explanation.
He looked around and found that in the inn, the boss's family and the waiter were sleeping soundly and deeply.
The seven horses in the stable in the backyard are resting quietly.
After he was sure that nothing unusual was found, he felt relieved.
As for whether there was any abnormality outside, he did not check carefully.
As long as the eldest princess and these two gentlemen are fine, everything else is just tiffs.
Besides, it was late at night, everyone in the town was asleep, and no one was walking on the street, so what could be the problem?
At this time, in a valley far away from the town, a human figure quickly condensed and took shape.
It was Tang Xuelian.
As Jiang Nan expected, Tang Xuelian was already hundreds of miles away at this moment.
She looked in the direction of Kyoto and gritted her teeth.
"Damn bastard! I didn't expect that he could suck my blood back and make all my efforts come to nothing!"
Feeling her body, Tang Xuelian frowned, "This mortal's Qi and blood... are too weak, of too low quality, and too mixed. If you want to return to the peak of the King Realm, you may have to absorb a hundred thousand ordinary people."
His energy and blood are not enough..."
She turned to look at the Western Region, "It seems that we have to go to the Monster Clan..."
"Jiang Nan, just wait. When I become the Martial Emperor, it will be the day of your beheading. Don't die first!"
Tang Xuelian's ruby-like eyes flashed in the night, and the corners of her mouth curved into a bloodthirsty arc.
She was indeed interested in Jiang Nan's body, but it was not the joy of dual cultivation, but the majestic energy and blood in his body.
Although she didn't absorb even a drop of energy and blood from Jiang Nan, she felt it deeply.
She felt an aura from Jiang Nan's energy and blood that made her soul tremble and awe. She felt that if she swallowed Jiang Nan's energy and blood, she would definitely be able to break through that level.
But Jiang Nan's power is so great that even if she reaches the peak of the Kingship Realm again, she has no confidence.
Therefore, she must step into the Martial Emperor.
Of course, next time I will never use the stupid method of dual cultivation to let the other party get an advantage.
She already has a new plan.
With this strong greed, Tang Xuelian suddenly disappeared and turned into a stream of light that shot toward the Western Region.
Early the next morning.
At dawn, the owner of Taoyuan Inn and his family and the waiter got up.
But after opening the door, I quickly discovered something was wrong.
So quiet!
Usually at this time, the chickens also crow, the dogs also bark, and some breakfast dishes come out.
But at this moment, the doors of every house were closed, and it was so quiet on the street that one could clearly hear his own breathing.
Moreover, it’s not even autumn yet, and I can actually feel a hint of coldness in the air.
It's so abnormal.
The boss looked tense and quickly asked the waiter to go to the vegetable shop not far next door.
The waiter hurried to the vegetable shop and knocked on the door.
But after knocking for a long time, no one opened the door.
Several shops next door were also closed and there was no movement.
It was as if the entire town had disappeared overnight.
It's so weird.
The waiter knocked on other people's doors, but there was no one there.
At this time, even the waiter, who was always brave, was scared.
Quickly return to the inn and explain the situation to the boss.
At this time, Jiang Nan and others also got up.
Wang Cheng went downstairs and found his boss looking nervous and seemingly at a loss.
"What's wrong?"
Wang Cheng asked.
"Back to the lord, we just got up and found that there seemed to be no one in the whole town."
The boss said hurriedly.
"No one?"
Wang Cheng was slightly startled.
"Weren't there so many people last night? How could there be no one?"
"Yes, but usually at this time, many people have opened the door, but early this morning, there was no one on the street, and no one answered the door, as if no one was at home."
The boss quickly explained.
Wang Cheng looked shocked.
He had a vague feeling that something might have happened to this town!
At this time, Jiang Nan, Yongan and Shangguanjun also came out.
"What's going on?"
Yongan asked.
Wang Cheng said quickly: "No one in the town has gotten up yet. Something may have happened."
Jiang Nan looked startled.
Yongan was also surprised and immediately said: "Go and check immediately."
"yes."
Wang Cheng holds fists.
Then he clasped his fists at Jiang Nan and said, "Young Master Jiang, please stay here. We will come back as soon as we go."
The words were not stated clearly, but the meaning was obvious.
Just ask Jiang Nan not to leave at will, and to protect the eldest princess Yongan here.
Although it may be fine, the safety of the eldest princess must be the first consideration under any circumstances.
This is the responsibility of the four imperial guards.
Among all the people, Jiang Nan has the lowest cultivation level, but the highest strength.
With Jiang Nan's personal protection, safety is guaranteed.
Jiang Nan nodded, "Okay."
The four of them felt relieved after hearing this, quickly walked out, and then jumped into each house...
I didn’t know it until I saw it, but I was shocked when I saw it.
Everyone they checked was dead.
Everyone has become a mummy.
The four of them were immediately shocked.
When they came last night, the town was still bustling, but under their noses, all these people died.
Wang Cheng and others quickly checked other homes.
It was discovered that not only people, but also chickens, ducks, dogs and cats were all dead.
All the blood and vitality of everyone in the town was extracted and turned into mummies.
The strange thing is that everyone has a smile on their face.
It seemed that everyone had all their energy and blood drained out of them in their dreams.
At this moment, except for the Taoyuan Inn, the entire town has quietly become a death town.
As the four people looked around, it seemed that some kind of restriction had been triggered, and a sense of death quickly filled the air.
Wang Cheng and others came back and reported the situation truthfully.
After hearing this, the boss couldn't bear the fright. His body shook, and suddenly his eyes went dark and he fainted.
Jiang Nan grabbed him and then gently put him down.
Jiang Nan looked serious, thinking of Tang Xuelian.
The incident in the small town is highly likely to be related to Tang Xuelian.
Yong'an also looked serious and said, "Go and have a look."
Wang Cheng and others immediately led the way.
They are all dead, but they are not actually dangerous.
The seven people quickly entered the house next door.
I saw everyone lying on the bed, looking peaceful, but unfortunately they were all dead.
Including children aged seven or eight, they all died.
The Qi and blood in the corpse were drained away, leaving the corpse slightly shriveled and dull.
It was as if it had been dead for many days and then dried.
The seven people then went to other people's homes and looked around, and found that they all died in the same way.
"If I guess correctly, it should be Tang Xuelian who did it."
Jiang Nan said.
Yongan looked shocked.
Suddenly he turned his head.
Others suddenly turned to look at Jiang Nan.
Without waiting for Yong'an to ask, Jiang Nan said again: "Last night, Tang Xuelian came here. She came to kill me."
Yongan and others were shocked.
Tang Xuelian came, but they didn't know anything about it.
"What happened next?"
Yongan asked hurriedly.
"I later beat him seriously and escaped."
Jiang Nan said lightly.
Of course, the 'hard work' in a fierce battle cannot be appreciated by outsiders.
"The way of escaping was the same as in the academy. She also escaped through blood escape. But I didn't expect that she would suck the blood of the entire town."
When Zhao Xu heard this, he immediately remembered what happened when he suddenly fell asleep at night.
He didn't care whether he would be punished or not, so he quickly recounted what happened last night.
With Zhao Xu's evidence, it seems to be more clear that last night was really Tang Xuelian's doing.
If Tang Xuelian was a normal person, no one would doubt her.
But Tang Xuelian is weird now.
After getting in touch, it suddenly made sense.
Moreover, it was probably Tang Xuelian's fault that they got lost and entered this small town.
Or it was the work of the divine court.
Wang Cheng looked serious, clasped his fists at Yong'an and said, "Elder Princess, we must leave here immediately and rush to Kyoto as quickly as possible."
The longer you are on the road, the more dangerous it becomes.
Obviously, they are now being targeted by Shenting.
At this time, Jiang Nan suddenly said: "Maybe... you will be safer if I don't pass with you. After all, that Tang Xuelian is here to find me."
As soon as he said this, Yongan immediately refused and said with a serious face: "No! You must go with us!"
Shangguan Jun's expression also darkened, and he said: "Young Master Jiang, who do you think we are? Since we are all in the same group, we naturally face difficulties together, unless you feel that you are not safe when you are with us."
Wang Cheng's eyes flickered slightly.
For the safety of the eldest princess Yong'an, Jiang Nan really had this idea the moment he finished speaking.
You can go separately.
Let Zhao Xu or Zhang Sheng accompany Jiang Nan when the time comes.
This way the goal is smaller.
But Shangguan Jun's words reminded him.
Among everyone, Jiang Nan is undoubtedly the strongest.
Even the four great guards are no match for him.
With him around, it's actually safer.
"Master Jiang, it is safer for everyone to go together. We will need Master Jiang's help more often."
Wang Cheng cupped his fists and said sincerely.
Jiang Nan nodded.
"Okay, let's leave now. I will arrange for someone to clean up the mess here."
While talking, he took out a signal projectile and shot it into the sky.
The flare exploded in the air.
After a while, a lightning eagle flew over at great speed from a distance.
Jiang Nan waved, and the lightning eagle landed in front of him.
His eyes were sharp, but he looked at Jiang Nan cautiously.
It keenly felt that Jiang Nan was like a dragon, with qi and blood surging in his body, which was extremely scary.
Jiang Nan put the written letter into the mailbox on its paw and closed the lid.
"Send the letter to the nearest city."
Chirp~
The Lightning Eagle gave a long cry and then flew away with lightning.
The group returned to the inn and got their horses.
Wang Cheng paid the fee.
The boss refused to take it life or death.
He knew very well that these seven adults were all great people. If they had not lived here with him, their family would have become mummies like the others.
But he didn't know that if Jiang Nan and others hadn't come here, the people here might not have died.
Of course, this is only possible.
Perhaps, even if Jiang Nan and others did not come, the people from Shenting might not be able to kill the people here.
Jiang Nan said: "Take it, I'm afraid no one will come here for a long time, and your business will be affected."
Then he signaled Wang Cheng to give him an extra hundred taels of silver.
The boss's eyes suddenly became moist, and he knelt down and kowtowed to everyone.
"Thank you for your kindness, adults!"
With the boss's endless gratitude, Jiang Nan and others quickly mounted their horses and galloped away.
…
Kyoto.
Zhu Xuan's face looked very ugly.
What he never wanted to happen happened.
Although Shang Zheng had already pleaded guilty and voluntarily entered the abyss to guard, enduring the pain of being burned by evil spirits every day.
But this does not rule out that he is Tang Xuelian's weird helper.
In other words, he is the driving force behind this incident.
"What do you think about Shang Zheng?"
Zhu Xuan looked at Wei Chun and asked.
"It is not yet certain that he is related to the Divine Court."
Wei Cundao.
"Of course I know this."
Zhu Xuan looked a little gloomy and said, "I'm asking how to handle this matter."
"It's natural to send someone else there. Shang Zheng is no longer suitable for the position of Supreme Elder."
Wei Chun said.
"Who is the right person to send?"
Zhu Xuan looked at him.
"Of course it's the person His Majesty deems suitable."
Wei Cundao.
Zhu Xuan snorted coldly, "Guarding Hongwu Academy requires at least the fifth level of Emperor Wu. Do you want me to send the Hidden Dragon Guard?"
"Your Majesty, I am also short of manpower here. Strange things are happening all over the place. The guards cannot leave..."
Wei Chun is wrong.
"Then take out one of the Tianlong Guards."
Zhu Xuan said.
Tianlong Guard... Wei Chun nodded slightly.
"Yes, Your Majesty."
The Tianlong Guard is the top combat force of the Demon Slayer Division. In fact, it was trained for the emperor, otherwise it would not be called the Tianlong Guard.
Although these Tianlongwei also have many tasks on weekdays.
But since the emperor wanted to send the Tianlong Guard, he naturally couldn't say anything.
"You handle this matter. When the time comes, you have someone take my instructions and let Shang Zheng guard the truth for the time being."
"Yes, Your Majesty."
Things at Hongwu College have come to an end for the time being.
The next step is how to deal with the affairs of the Divine Court.
Zhu Xuan sighed slightly.
According to the news from Jiang Nan, Tang Xuelian suddenly attacked Jiang Nan. Almost everyone in the town where he, Yong An and others lived at night died.
In this way, it is basically certain that Weirdness and the Divine Court are closely related.
In other words, the weirdness was caused by the Divine Court.
The purpose is to bring trouble to the dynasty.
But now, not only Jiangnan, but also several mansions in the southern region have experienced strange phenomena.
Strange events have occurred in more than ten cities in Canglan Mansion, and many people have died.
In the end, even the guardian envoys of the Demon Slayer Division were dispatched, but with little effect.
Not only that, but two patrol angels were lost as a result.
The dangers of the Divine Court have begun to emerge.
If things go on like this, it will definitely cause people to panic and the society to be in turmoil.
The consequence of the turmoil in the country is that all kinds of evil spirits and monsters will come out to seize the opportunity to cause trouble.
If it is not controlled, it will form a chaotic phenomenon of demons.
"How are you going to deal with it at Canglan Mansion?"
Zhu Xuan looked at Wei Chun and asked.
Speaking of Canglan Mansion, Wei Chun also had a headache.
You must know that the guardian envoys are at the lowest level of the seventh heaven of the King of Confession, and the guardians dispatched this time have reached the first level of the Martial Emperor, and are among the top combat powers.
But even so, there is still nothing to do about this weirdness.
To put it bluntly, there is no way to start.
I can't find what's weird at all. No matter how strong my strength is, it's useless to focus on nowhere.
And when the patrol angel was sent, he was unexpectedly swallowed up by the strangeness.
Two were damaged.
In the end, expensive magic sealing talismans had to be used to seal the entire city.
But the Demon-Sealing Talisman consumes Jingyuan Dan all the time.
It's not a long-term solution at all.
"Let's wait until Jiang Nan comes back to discuss this matter."
Wei Chun sighed and said.
Zhu Xuan's eyes narrowed, he looked at Wei Chun, and said seriously: "You mean you want Jiang Nan to solve this matter?"
Wei Chun did not hide anything, nodded and said: "I have this idea. After these few confrontations with Weiyi, he has proven that he has a strong restraint against Weiyi."
"This... I'm afraid it's a little unsafe!" Zhu Xuan frowned slightly and said, "Although he is very powerful, you have to know that his cultivation is always a shortcoming. His current cultivation is still very low. If something happens
If something goes wrong, we can't explain it to Jun Jian."
Wei Chundao: "Of course I know what your Majesty said, but apart from this method, I can't think of any other better method for the time being."
Zhu Xuan thought for a moment, and finally said: "That's fine, let's discuss this matter after he comes back."
…
A month later, Jiang Nan, Yong'an and others returned to Kyoto.
After nearly three months of absence, it was still summer when I went there, but it was already autumn when I came back.
Yong'an, Shangguan Jun, Wang Cheng and others want to return to the imperial city to resume their duties, while he needs to go to the Demon Slayer Division to resume his duties.
A group of people parted ways in the inner city.
Jiang Nan went to the Demon Slayer Division.
Wangchun Tower.
Eight floors.
Jiang Nan knocked on the door and entered.
"Special envoy Jiang Nan meets with the chief."
Jiang Nan cupped his fists.
Wei Chun looked at Jiang Nan with joy on his face.
"Breakthrough?"
Although Jiang Nan's aura was restrained, it had no effect at all on this top warrior.
He could tell at a glance that Jiang Nan had entered the Fiery Sun Realm.
And it’s the third level of the Fierce Sun Realm.
"It was just a fluke."
Jiang Nan cupped his fists.
Wei Chuntao: "Where do you get so much luck? A breakthrough is a breakthrough. This shows that your martial arts talent is very strong."
As he spoke, he said with emotion: "You are not yet seventeen years old, but you are already in the third level of the Fierce Sun Realm. Even in Taichu Academy, you are an amazing genius, and you have even become a genius."
"Okay, let's not talk about this. Let's talk about what you have encountered these days. Come, sit down here and talk slowly."
While talking, Wei Chun personally poured Jiang Nan a cup of tea.
Jiang Nan quickly stood up and took it, thanked him and then sat down.
Then he set off from Kyoto and told in detail everything he encountered on the way, including the academy, and everything he did when he came back.
Except for some things about myself that are inconvenient to talk about, I have said everything else I can.
After all, there is no need to hide these things.
It can be put on the table openly.
"...We returned to that valley, dug up the soil, and found that there were only four corpses, including Yang Hui, and the rest of the corpses were all missing."
Jiang Nan said, "These signs indicate that in order to deal with these people of the Divine Court, their heads must be cut off, or their heads and bodies must be completely crushed, so that they will no longer have the possibility of being resurrected and become weird."
"Of course, this is just my subordinate's conjecture. It needs to be verified in the future."
Wei Chun nodded and said: "Although Tang Xuelian escaped this time, your discovery is very important."
"This trip to the west has given you a better understanding of the weird and how to deal with them. It just so happens that I have something I want to discuss with you."
Jiang Nan quickly said: "The chief, please tell me something."
Jiang Nan still respected the strong man in front of him very much.
Regarding Jiang Nan's performance, Wei Chun nodded secretly.
This boy doesn't have the characteristics of a playboy at all, but more like a humble gentleman.
Well, this is the same as me... Wei Chun looked at Jiang Nan with satisfaction.
"I really need to discuss this next matter with you." He said, "Because this matter is very dangerous, you can refuse."
Can you still refuse?
Is there such a good thing?
Jiang Nan didn't believe it in her heart, but she had a solemn look on her face. She cupped her fists and said, "Big boss, please tell me."
Wei Chun nodded, his expression became a little serious, and said: "As you know, Ziqian, there have been a lot of weird things recently. We initially suspect that these weird things are caused by Shenting, or are related to Shenting. And these weird phenomena are currently in the Southern Territory
At least half of the thirty-seven cities in Canglan Mansion have experienced strange events, and nearly 30,000 people have died so far..."
