In a narrow alley in Anqing City, Wang Tiezhu was walking quickly inside.
As the smell of blood in the air became stronger, his expression became more and more serious.
"With such strong blood energy, there must be more than one victim!"
When he thought of this, the speed of his feet became a little faster unconsciously.
Not long after.
Wang Tiezhu stopped in front of a closed wooden door.
This is a private courtyard hidden in an alley, and the rich blood energy pours out from the closed door of the courtyard.
"Restricted?"
He felt the aura of spiritual power around the small courtyard, was slightly startled, and then opened the Spiritual Cave Eyes.
In Dong Lingtong's field of vision, the entire courtyard was covered by a ban.
But for some reason, this restriction is not complete. There is still a gap at the gate, and the blood energy suppressed by the restriction is spreading out from this gap.
Wang Tiezhu narrowed his eyes slightly. Although this restriction was powerful, with the existence of this gap, it could be easily broken by using the Dongling Pupil and Hantian Pulse Sealing Technique.
"Spirit seal!"
Several thick ice needles landed on the weak spot of the restriction, and the huge restriction instantly shattered, and a blood energy that was a hundred times richer than before suddenly surged out, making Wang Tiezhu look shocked.
Feeling that there was no dangerous atmosphere in the small courtyard, he pushed open the courtyard door with a heavy face and took in the scene in the courtyard.
The small courtyard was covered with a layer of blood. Five corpses were lying quietly in the blood. Their skins showed a strange pale white color, which was in sharp contrast with the black and red blood around them.
These five corpses are an old couple, a young man and woman, and a child of seven or eight years old. They should be the original residents of this small courtyard.
"Are they all mortal?"
Wang Tiezhu frowned and floated gently in the air a few inches away from the bloody water, observing the five corpses at close range.
Although Anqing City is the largest cultivator city in Dongzhou, there are still a small number of mortals living in it, and this family is obviously one of them.
"Damn it!"
After getting closer, Wang Tiezhu discovered that the chests of these five people were all broken open, and the hearts inside were missing.
Suddenly, he noticed something strange, opened the Cave Spirit Eye again, flew into the air, and overlooked the entire small courtyard.
I saw that under the bloody water in the small courtyard, there were actually formations, and the remaining spiritual energy in them was constantly passing away.
Feeling the breath of these formations, Wang Tiezhu's expression was stunned.
"Is this... a blood formation? Is there a demon cultivator from the Blood Shadow Demon Sect lurking in Anqing City?!"
Wang Tiezhu was shocked, but immediately frowned.
"No, although this formation and the blood formation have some similarities, they are different upon closer inspection... Damn it! Who is it!"
After observing for a while, Wang Tiezhu found that he could not break this formation, and felt a little annoyed.
At the same time, he was also sure that this must be the work of a demon cultivator. Only a demon cultivator could be so cruel and attack a mortal who has no ability to resist!
"It seems that we have to go back quickly and tell Ye Tianxiong that there are demon cultivators in Anqing City!"
Thinking of this, Wang Tiezhu glanced at the bloody courtyard, his eyes full of unbearable color.
However, for the sake of subsequent investigation, the small courtyard could only be maintained as it is, and the five mortal corpses had no choice but to continue to lie in a pool of blood.
Just when he was about to turn around and leave, a figure flashed past in his peripheral vision.
"Who!"
Wang Tiezhu shouted sharply, his body suddenly rose, and he immediately chased in the direction where the figure disappeared.
The figure escaped very fast, and as it moved around, there was a faint trace of blood.
"Moxiu!"
Seeing this situation, Wang Tiezhu became angry and mobilized his spiritual power with all his strength, eager to catch up with the man.
Seeing his speed soaring, the man suddenly changed direction and ran towards the crowded downtown area.
"Don't run!"
Wang Tiezhu followed closely behind, and the two of them chased each other quickly on the roof. Suddenly, the figure faltered and disappeared from his sight in an instant.
He stood on the roof next to the street, looking at the crowded downtown, with a gloomy look on his face. He immediately spread his consciousness and expanded it to the extreme, but still did not find the figure of the man just now.
"He still escaped, damn it!"
He lightly jumped down from the roof and was about to walk in the direction of Ye Mansion when he saw a group of soldiers coming towards him.
"Prince? Why are you here?"
The leader of the team was Ye Mang, who looked surprised when he saw Wang Tiezhu.
"Uncle Mang, you came just in time..."
Wang Tiezhu then briefly described everything he had just experienced. When he heard that there was a demonic cultivator causing trouble in Anqing City, even Ye Mang couldn't help but become furious.
"What?! This is happening! You two, hurry back to the house and tell the master of the family, Prince Wang, please lead the way. We are going to that small courtyard now!"
Wang Tiezhu nodded, and then led Yebu and his group to the small courtyard.
Feeling the strong smell of blood coming from the courtyard, Ye Mang's face became as gloomy as Wang Tiezhu's.
When he walked into the small courtyard and saw the blood all over the courtyard and the five mortal corpses lying in the pool of blood, especially when there was a child among them, Ye Mang felt even heavier and the anger in his heart couldn't stop rising.
rise.
"Uncle Mang, because I was worried that it would affect the subsequent investigation, I did not touch anything in the courtyard. I hope you will investigate as soon as possible so that this family can be buried in peace..."
Hearing Wang Tiezhu's words, Ye Mang nodded silently.
"Don't worry, Prince. Once the master of the family arrives, we will collect their bodies immediately!"
After a while, Ye Tianxiong with a cold face rushed to the small courtyard with a team of people.
Looking at the courtyard full of blood, Ye Tianxiong could not see any emotion on his face.
He waved one hand, and the blood all over the yard instantly condensed into a ball, suspended in the air, revealing the magic circle carved on the ground.
"The Five Soul Transformation Demon Array is from the Holy Cave of Soul Bones."
He uttered a word coldly, then waved his arm again, and the blood balls in the air disappeared instantly.
"Ye Mang, focus on investigating the foreign cultivators who have come to Anqing City in the past three days, especially those unidentified casual cultivators. The Soul Bone Demon Cave is good at seizing other people's bodies for your own use.
This demonic cultivator must have taken possession of his body not long ago and has not yet been able to fully control his body, so he used the five-soul demonic formation to strengthen his control over his body."
After saying that, he turned and left.
Wang Tiezhu looked at Ye Tianxiong's leaving figure with some surprise.
"Is this the end? Isn't Senior Ye prepared to track down the demon cultivator himself?"
Ye Mang smiled and said: "Young Master Wang, the master of the family has many things to do. He does not need to personally take care of this kind of thing, just leave it to us. Now that it is confirmed that he is the demon cultivator of the Holy Cave of Soul Bones, the next thing will be
