The street was already quiet, and no one was guarding the important street entrances. Only the watchman carried a small lantern and beat the gong to patrol.
Most of the lights in the houses have been extinguished, and a few still have weak lights, but occasionally passers-by must be on guard against surprise patrols or interrogations by government officials.
The black shadow suddenly appeared, leaped up, and rushed forward, about to jump into the narrow and long streets and alleys, but only a dull sound like "poof" was heard, like cutting a melon. It was this sound, accompanied by a painful and brief moment.
The screams made people feel horrified when they heard them.
But in fact, if you see this scene, you will understand what coexistence of glamor and terror means, and then the scene will be so weird that it can drive ordinary people crazy.
A ferocious and terrifying monster, and a stunningly beautiful young girl who kills the monster. The contrast in this scene is so great that the impact is definitely greater than the tragic screams.
The monster's blood spattered when the head was chopped off and fell to the ground with a sizzling sound. The "murderer" who was closest to the body bore the brunt of the blood splatter.
But the blood splashed around the girl, and as if consciousness suddenly appeared, it instantly slipped around and avoided the girl automatically!
The screams alerted nearby houses, but instead of coming out to check, they immediately turned off the lights.
In the sky, the giant eagle circled low, making the same low hawk cry.
This girl holding a sword to kill demons is none other than Zhou Yao who was chasing Xie Zhenqing on an eagle.
There were already many monsters lying around, and the smell of blood was very strong in the air, but this result did not satisfy Zhou Yao.
Her expression was calm, with a trace of impatience between her eyebrows. She glanced around and looked at the corpses, but she didn't find the one she wanted to catch the most.
"Escaped?" She muttered to herself.
Holding the sword, blood was constantly dripping from the tip of the sword. Her body was spotless, and the place where she landed was extremely clean, but the surrounding area was covered with blood.
This scene is really chilling.
Of course, no one has seen it yet, and no one dares to look at it. The only ones who are really scared are the monsters.
Zhou Yao heard the soft breathing, and one was the watchman. He was hiding in a corner ten meters away, shivering, and there was even a bit of a fishy smell.
Zhou Yao frowned. This person thought he was hiding well. In fact, monsters can feel it, but there will be no monsters killing people for no reason. This is the center of the empire after all, and spiritual pressure is everywhere to remind him of this.
The second one was the sound made by an extremely nervous monster. Before there was no sound, it was probably because he was holding his breath and concentrating. At this moment, he was completely unable to hold his nerve, and something leaked out.
She casually grabbed it in the direction and pulled out a civet cat covered in blood.
The civet cat was motionless, and the invisible hand caught it in mid-air. Zhou Yao stared at it carefully, and let out a light sigh. The next moment, the invisible hand seemed to shrink violently, and the seemingly dead civet cat was there.
Under the huge pressure, he screamed directly.
"Spare my life! My lord, spare my life! My lord, ah! My lord, spare your life!" Seeing that it was impossible to escape by pretending to be dead, the raccoon cat quickly yelled to please, trying to get the girl in front of it to let it live.
Seeing it being grabbed and brought to the girl, the civet cat began to bark more and more to please her.
Even with the meowing sound, it is the prototype, and civet cats are naturally cute, and with such a meow and blood all over their body, it is actually a bit pitiful and cute.
Unfortunately, the person it met was Zhou Yao. No matter what it did, Zhou Yao probably didn't change his expression. He even poked it lightly with his hand after it was "sent" in front of him.
"Ouch——"
Zhou Yao stretched out her hand and poked directly into the civet cat's wound. The pain caused the civet cat to look ferocious for a moment and screamed miserably.
But after calling, facing the girl whose expression remained unchanged, the raccoon cat suddenly froze, then curled up again, its voice quickly became lower, and it meowed to please the girl.
Zhou Yao ignored it at all, just put the finger and fingertips that poked the wound into her mouth and sipped it gently, and then the color changed.
"Although there are some mutations, it is indeed the blood of the Dragon Lord."
But how is this possible? Why does the blood of the Dragon King appear in a little civet cat?
"Who is it? Who has usurped my blood?"
The aura on Zhou Yao's body suddenly became cold. Back then, she split the Dragon Essence into two, leaving half for her children and half for her future. Could it be that something went wrong?
There was a flash of coldness in her eyes. If something went wrong, she would have to find out the person who stole her dragon blood!
It's a pity that the man who was stabbed by her just now escaped.
The civet cat, which was already in Zhou Yao's hand, was shrouded in murderous aura. It didn't dare to move, let alone make a sound. Its whole body was stiff, hanging as if dead.
Zhou Yao didn't care whether it moved or not, whether it screamed or not, she just took the civet cat by the back of its neck and mounted it on the giant eagle. The giant eagle flew away without her instructions.
Standing on the giant eagle in the distance, Zhou Yao turned around and saw Taisun's Mansion, with a faint red light, weapons clashing from time to time, and armor emerging.
"It's murderous intent." Looking at Taisun's Mansion, an idea flashed in Zhou Yao's mind and she blurted out.
As soon as these words came out of her mouth, she was immediately enlightened and shivered all over.
This is not the first time she has flown here on a giant eagle, nor is it the first time she has passed by Taisun Mansion. Why hasn't she discovered this before?
"It's just that I didn't awaken and take back the dragon's blood in the past, so I am no longer the Dragon Lord of Wei."
Time has passed and many things have changed.
But this time it was different. She had just accidentally received a drop of blood. In an instant, it was like something that had been shrouded in her mind was shattered. She broke through the fog and "saw" the mystery.
"No wonder monsters can walk around the capital at night. It turns out that the rise of Great Zheng is actually related to the Dragon Lord and the monster clan?"
She looked carefully at Taisun's Mansion, and then looked at another place, which was clearly Prince Qi's Mansion.
"It looks like a dragon but not a dragon. Is King Qi related to me, Lord Dragon, and the demon clan?"
This made her hesitate and shocked. This Da Zheng was too deeply involved with the demon clan and the Dragon Lord.
"Even if you steal the Dragon King's blood, you may be blessed with demon luck. How is this possible? Has something happened to my daughter?"
Zhou Yao pondered, then stepped on the foot, and the giant eagle flew towards the outside of the city. The target was the canal on the outskirts of the capital, and the canal led directly to Panlong Lake.
You must investigate clearly before doing anything.
"Ahem!"
Behind a low wall in the dark and silent alley, Xie Zhenqing emerged from behind. He was pressing his chest and coughing. His face was pale, looking at the direction where the giant eagle was flying, with a trace of happiness in his expression.
At this moment, the chest was scarlet red, and blood was slowly gushing out. Although magic was used to heal the wound, it was obvious that the healing effect on the wound was very slow.
"What a shame, there are too many variables."
"Although Lord Dragon is still alive, he should have been sleeping quietly."
"Even if the young dragon has a chance of survival, it shouldn't thrive."
"You have to take precautions, and you shouldn't be discovered. Is the backlash so big?"
Xie Zhenqing panted slightly and said to himself with a hint of solemnity: "No, I don't have much time, I must speed up."
