One thousand and thirty-two, isn't it just how many people died?
Chunxiao City!
This is a large city located to the north of Lianyun Mountain. It contains the Pulse Refiner Branch, the Dou Ling Chamber of Commerce branch, and many other forces. However, the atmosphere inside the Dou Ling Chamber of Commerce today is a little special, even a little gloomy.
"How's it going? Is Protector Situ back?"
In a large hall, the person sitting at the top is Shen Litong, the branch president of the Chunxiao City Dou Ling Chamber of Commerce branch. He is also a strong man at the peak of the Seeking Realm, but his face at this moment has a look of anxiety.
His color and tone were also very irritable.
This President Shen is naturally the one who hunted down Chi Yan in the northern region of Lianyun Mountain with Situ Lang, the protector of the Dou Ling Chamber of Commerce Headquarters. Unfortunately, they hunted for many days at that time, but in the end they failed to catch him.
A rat-shaped vein demon with extremely special and rich fire attributes.
After all, Shen Litong is the branch president of the Chunxiao City Dou Ling Chamber of Commerce branch, and he also has many mundane affairs. Of course, he cannot always waste time with Situ Lang in Lianyun Mountain.
So after a month passed, he could only take his subordinates back to Chunxiao City to deal with the mountain of affairs.
Shen Litong didn't notice anything wrong when he first returned to the Chunxiao City branch, but in the past few days, it had made him restless.
Because every night, an elder from the Dou Ling Chamber of Commerce branch would disappear without warning. Even his body could not be found, and he did not know whether he was dead or alive.
You must know that this is the branch of the Dou Ling Chamber of Commerce. No one would dare to provoke this behemoth with a powerful background. But now that such a strange thing has happened, it really makes people angry and frightened.
"Where's the Sixth Elder? Why haven't you come yet?"
Looking at an empty seat in the hall, Shen Litong didn't wait for anyone to answer, and his heart became increasingly irritated. At this critical moment, what else is more important than this weird thing?
Tap tap tap!
Just when Shen Litong was restless, a sound of footsteps came from outside the palace, and then a branch guard rushed in. However, the guard's movements were a bit strange. He held his hands in front of his chest, and in his palms, it seemed that
There is something dark in the hand.
Seeing the guard's hurried steps and his somewhat uncontrollable look of fear, Shen Litong secretly said something bad at first, and at the same time he had vaguely guessed something.
"President, something bad is going on!"
The guard knelt down on one knee. When the voice came out of his mouth, the branch president and the five elders of the branch couldn't help but look at each other. A trace of panic could be seen in their eyes.
"What happened? Where is the Sixth Elder?"
Shen Litong was no stranger to this guard. He was the one he sent to invite the Sixth Elder to discuss matters. However, he did not expect that he was the only one who came back at this time. And with this look on his face, it was obvious that something had happened.
"Sixth Elder...Sixth Elder...is probably...dead!"
When the president mentioned the Sixth Elder, the guard trembled, and a few bits of dark dust leaked from his fingers. Thinking of something, he still has lingering fears.
"Tell me everything you know!"
Shen Litong had a gloomy face. Although he already had some guesses in his mind, he did not break it at this moment. He needed more information to support it, and the guard in front of him obviously knew some unknown information.
"I...I just went to the Sixth Elder's courtyard to invite him on the order of the president. But as soon as I arrived outside the courtyard, I saw a fiery red shadow flash and disappear. It seemed to be...it seemed to be a
A rat-shaped pulse demon!"
Naturally, the guard did not dare to hide it, but when he heard his last words, all the five branch elders trembled, including branch president Shen Litong, with a glint in their eyes.
"Go on!"
Shen Litong's face was so gloomy that he was almost dripping with water. The guess in his mind became clearer and clearer, but he still didn't express his thoughts and just drank loudly.
"The subordinates were surprised. Then they heard a miserable... scream coming from the Sixth Elder's Courtyard. Without thinking much at the moment, they just pushed the door open and saw... the Sixth Elder had turned into a
Pyro, finally...finally..."
Thinking back to the terrifying situation before, the guard's teeth trembled a little at the end, and then he handed the black dust in his hand forward. Now everyone understood what it was.
"The ashes of the Sixth Elder!"
Shen Litong and the five elders reacted very quickly and understood in just a moment. At the same time, these elders who had followed the president to Lianyun Mountain no longer needed to be reminded.
"Damn beast!"
At this moment, all the truth was revealed. In addition to the six elders who had been reduced to ashes, the Chunxiao City Dou Ling Chamber of Commerce branch had lost four elders in just a few days.
There are only nine elders in the entire Chunxiao City branch, and now almost half of them are dead. How can Shen Litong endure this? He knows that with the death of these four elders, I am afraid that the Chunxiao City Dou Ling Chamber of Commerce branch will have to lose strength.
hurt.
From the guard's description, Shen Litong knew clearly that it must be the fire-attributed rat-shaped vein demon they were chasing a month ago. It had escaped the pursuit of the headquarters protector Situ Lang and came to Chunxiao City to seek revenge.
This is really an unforeseen disaster for Chunxiao City. You must know that Situ Lang is the only one who covets the fire-attributed rat demon. Shen Litong led the elders in the meeting to go there, just to support him.
Unexpectedly, it set him on fire. The eighth-level high-level rat-shaped pulse demon had such a keen sense of smell that he found the Chunxiao City Dou Ling Chamber of Commerce branch all the way and killed the four elders of the branch.
Judging from the death of the sixth elder, the previous elders must have been directly burned to ashes by the fire attribute pulse demon's natal fire, but no one saw it with their own eyes, and the light wind blew them
, those elders naturally disappeared.
A Pulse Demon that has reached the eighth level, even the branch president of Shen Litong, is not sure of winning at all, so after he was angry in his heart, he slapped the back of the chair and said angrily:
"Where did Protector Situ go? Is there a fire in the backyard?"
At this moment, Shen Litong undoubtedly felt a hint of resentment towards the headquarters protector Situ Lang, and his tone became slightly rude.
"President Shen is so angry, why?"
At this moment, Shen Li's call had just ended when a deep voice came from outside the main hall door, making him jump up as if there were springs under his butt.
"Protector Situ, you are finally back!"
Shen Litong didn't have the restraint as a president at this moment. Seeing him as if he were seeing a relative, he walked quickly towards the entrance of the palace to greet him. His voice seemed to be filled with a touch of sobs and grievances.
At the same time, a figure finally flashed at the door of the hall, and a middle-aged figure appeared in the sight of all the elders. This man's face was slightly flat and he looked kind, but in fact there was a hint of anger in his eyes.
This person is naturally Situ Lang, the headquarter protector of the Dou Ling Chamber of Commerce. His cultivation has reached the early stage of Fu Di Realm. Even compared to Bai Wushuang, who died in Yun Xiao's hands, he is much stronger.
To be honest, Situ Lang was in a bad mood, because he had been chasing the fire-attributed rat-shaped vein demon in Lianyun Mountain, but had found nothing. Finally, he found that he had been tricked by an eighth-level high-level beast.
When something happened to the Chunxiao City Dou Ling Chamber of Commerce branch, Situ Lang finally found out its real movement from some clues left by Chi Yan, and this movement naturally pointed directly at the Chunxiao City Dou Ling Chamber of Commerce branch.
.
Following those auras, Situ Lang unexpectedly caught up with the branch of the Dou Ling Chamber of Commerce in Chunxiao City. Unexpectedly, as soon as he entered the place, he heard Shen Litong's resentful words, which made his mood become a bit worse again.
"Protector Situ, do you know that beast..."
Seeing Situ Lang walking directly towards the superior without saying a word, Shen Litong accompanied him carefully, but finally couldn't help but say something. It was true that the Chunxiao City Dou Ling Chamber of Commerce branch had been too frustrated for a while.
.
"Of course I know, isn't it just a few people who died? What's the big deal?"
As a strong man in the early stage of Fu Di Realm, Situ Lang actually never paid much attention to branch presidents like Shen Litong. His ultimate goal was to obtain the fire attribute pulse demon and then refine it into his own pulse.
spirit.
Hearing Situ Lang's words, the elders nearby couldn't help but twitch their mouths, secretly thinking that this guy really doesn't regard himself as a human being. What do you mean by "a few people died?" Those are four living lives.
!
"Don't worry, I will avenge them, but before that, I need someone else. Who among you will come?"
Situ Lang walked straight to the seat at the top and sat down. Then the conversation changed. After hearing his last words, several elders felt a chill on their backs. They had vaguely guessed who the protector needed.
What do you want to do?
"What does Protector Situ mean?"
Although Shen Litong had some guesses in his mind, he still asked carefully. Then he saw Situ Lang glance at him. The meaning in his eyes seemed to be saying that he couldn't even see this. Don't you be a fool?
"Of course I found someone to use as bait to lure that beast out!"
Situ Lang didn't delay, and directly stated what he was thinking. Looking at the palpitating expressions of the elders over there, he said, "With this protector here, are you still worried?"
"Don't worry? Don't worry, uncle!"
The elders of several major branches wanted to curse their mothers. The tragic deaths of the four elders had left them with a psychological shadow on the rat-shaped pulse demon.
But they didn't expect that when Situ Lang came, he would ask one of them to serve as bait. Wouldn't this mean that they would be roasted on the fire? And they would probably be burnt. (To be continued)
