Watching Mr. Xiaobai leave, before Cheng Yan could turn around, a biting cold wind hit behind her. She quickly dodged to avoid it. When she turned around, she saw Xun Yan glaring angrily with his hand as a blade.
"Xun Yan, what are you doing?"
"I heard everything just now, you actually associate with the demon clan!"
Cheng Yan nodded calmly: "I didn't prevent you from speaking, and I didn't intend to hide it from you." She took a few steps forward: "If I say, I want to open the door to the demon world, let the demon clan go back, and let Tianchu regain peace...
”
"What did you say!" Xun Yan's eyes suddenly turned red: "Say it again!"
The muscles all over his body were tense, as if he would take action immediately as long as Cheng Yan confirmed.
Cheng Yan sighed softly: "Do you have a grudge against the demon clan?"
Xun Yan was slightly stunned and shook his head.
"Is it the demon clan that brought you to this point?"
Xun Yan still shook his head.
"You hate the demon clan and cannot allow them to regain their freedom?"
Xun Yan thought for a moment, then shook his head, and his excitement gradually calmed down.
"In that case, why do you object?"
Xun Yan's red eyes returned to their original state, but he was still angry: "Although I have no enmity with the demon clan, this is the moment of life and death between Tianchu Demon Master and the demon clan. As a Tianchu monk, I should..."<
/p>
As he said this, he suddenly realized that he couldn't be considered a Tianchu monk at all.
I'm afraid those Tianchu monks regard him as a monster and hate him even more than the demon clan.
His shoulders were slightly slumped, and he looked like he had been drained of energy. He turned around and sat down where Cheng Yuan was sitting.
After a while, Cheng Yan sat down next to him.
"I didn't hide it from you, just because I think you can understand the feelings of those trapped monsters. Many of them have never made any mistakes, but just because they are monsters, they were captured and locked up in the dark Demon Locking Tower.
, tortured day after day, year after year.
The only way to leave the Demon Locking Tower is to recognize the monk as your master and lose your freedom from then on.
I want to bring the demon clan back to the demon world, but I am not entirely on their side. I just think that today’s Tianchu monks regard demon control as their top priority and abandon the foundation of immortal cultivation.
Very few.
If things go on like this, the situation between the demon clan and the monks will probably get worse and worse, and they will fall into internal strife. This will not be a good thing for the entire Tianchu."
Cheng Yuan's eyes were sincere, and Xun Yan stared at her closely without saying a word.
After a long time, he said: "I won't help you."
Cheng Yan sighed slightly.
I heard Xun Yan continue: "But I won't stop you. Whatever you want to do, just do it. I hope what you said is true. I also hope that if there ever comes a day, the Yaozu and the Tianchu monks can be at peace.
Living together."
Looking at Xun Yan, some pictures vaguely appeared in Cheng Yan's mind.
That was an unsmiling boy when he was young. He was the captain of the escort team. He had been quietly guarding Cheng Yuan for many years. He had a weak presence, but made Cheng Yuan feel at ease.
"Thank you, Xun Yan."
……
"The Eagle Strikes the Demon Refining Pond of Zhongzhou in the Sky", a piece of news is like a boulder falling into the water, causing huge splashes of water, causing the already chaotic Zhongzhou to fall into panic again.
After receiving the news, the city lord of Shangshan City in Zhongzhou conducted a rigorous investigation and secret investigation, and discovered the location of a demon refining pool on an abandoned hilltop a hundred miles away from the way. There were no less than fifty demon control masters imprisoned in it, and these were all
The monk who mysteriously disappeared in Shangshan City for ten years.
These demon control masters have all become medicine men. Under the influence of the demon refining pool, most of them have lost their minds and become complete lunatics. Some of their bodies have mutated and are as ugly as monsters. Once they leave the demon refining pool, these monsters will go crazy and lose their fighting power.
Surprisingly, the guards of Shangshan City were seriously injured.
The Lord of Shangshan City immediately ordered the sealing of the Demon Refining Pond, and sent high-level demon masters to guard it, making sure to find out the matter.
Shangshan City was in an uproar due to the demon refining pool, and many demon masters in the city were implicated in it, and all of them were executed. Then they were instigated by someone with malicious intentions and pointed the finger at the demon clan. In this way, new and old grudges caused the demon masters and the demon clan to
The situation is getting increasingly tense.
This is the conclusion that Cheng Yan came to after reading the news: "Someone is diverting trouble to the east and is able to deflect the blame."
"Do you believe in the Monster Clan so much? Do you think the Demon Refining Pond has nothing to do with the Demon Clan?" Regarding the Demon Refining Pond, Xun Yan seemed particularly cold and hard. He was deeply hurt by it and wished he could immediately find out the real murderer behind the scenes and let him tear it apart with his own hands.
Broken.
Cheng Yan does not believe in the demon clan, but believes in His Highness Qi.
During this time, she also sent a message to His Highness Qi to inquire about the Demon Refining Pond, but was told that among the demons under his control, none were related to the Demon Refining Pond.
What’s more, the person behind what happened to Aunt Lan was Mr. Yan Qing, Yanchu’s master.
I just don’t know which force is behind Mr. Yanqing.
She was in Zhongzhou, so she couldn't find out about Yan Qing. She just sent Yan Chu a transmission note to let her know some of Yan Qing's secrets in a tactful way.
"The demon clan has no reason to do this. It's not that they don't know how, but most of the demon clan likes to go straight. If they want to retaliate, they won't be so roundabout."
Xun Yan raised his eyebrows: "There are also some demon clans who have stayed in Tianchu long enough and have become tainted with human nature and learned to be insidious and cunning."
"This is also possible."
While talking, the two came to a large market.
This is located at the entrance of a plain, adjacent to three cities, namely Manor City, Qiyu City, and Chrysanthemum City in Zhongzhou. Because it is at the intersection of the three cities, there are many monks coming and going, and it is like a mobile city.
Due to its large scale, a protective array was set up outside Fang City, so everyone who wanted to enter Fang City had to pay ten spiritual stones.
Cheng Yuan paid twenty spirit stones and entered with Xun Yan. When he entered the city, he found a patrol team escorting a horse demon out.
There were people talking a lot around me.
"It's annoying to say that this horse demon has been hiding in the city for more than ten years, but no one has noticed it. If someone hadn't used a demon mirror to spot it this time, I'm afraid this demon could still be hiding under our noses.
""
Some people are naturally compassionate: "I have been in the city for more than ten years, and I can be considered safe and sound. If it is not a demon clan, who has the reason to kill him? I heard that this is a spiritual planter, and the spiritual plants he sells cannot be saved.
How many monks have lived..."
"Who told him to be a monster!"
"Hey!"
Some of the people around were angry, some were sad, and after some discussion, everyone went about their own business.
Cheng Yan looked in the direction of the group of guards and followed them without hesitation.
Xun Yan followed her silently until Cheng Yuan followed her to the guard camp and then said: "You are not planning to save that horse demon, are you?"
"I'll see what they do with the horse demon after they capture it, and then I'll make a decision."
The guard camp was not far outside Fang City. The horse demon was quickly thrown into a cell. From a distance, it looked like there were several demons being imprisoned inside.
Cheng Yan couldn't help but look at it a few more times.
