The masters of the Demon Sect searched outside the city for two full days, and later ordered some soldiers to help search for Butcher Li.
Nowadays, the area south of Baijiang City has been divided into another area and has become Baijiang Road. The person who serves as the governor of Baijiang Road is Yao Wu. Of course, these soldiers dare not disobey the order.
It's a pity that even so, Butcher Li was still not found. He seemed to have disappeared from the world, and there was no news about him.
"Something must have happened to Butcher Li!" Yao Wu said in a deep voice as the eight masters of the Demon Sect gathered in a large courtyard of the city lord's palace.
Others were either silent, worried, or condensed. With Eli Butcher's martial arts and methods, as long as he was not dead, he would have been able to get back to the city in the past two days.
It is now the third day. The longer the time goes on, the slimmer the hope of the other party's survival.
Heart-Destroying Yama said: "Could it be that he was injured too seriously, so he hid and is healing his wounds in secret?"
Yao Wu shook his head: "It's unlikely. He was able to escape from the encirclement of Lu Kuang and the others at that time, which means he still has the power to act. I remember that Li Butcher has many healing pills on him. Isn't two days enough for him to recover?"
?"
After saying this, everyone's expressions became even worse.
After more than three hundred years of dormancy, the Demon Sect must not only develop, but also must always be vigilant against the pursuit and suppression of the Twelve Holy Lands and the imperial court. Only those who have experienced it know how much hardship it has endured.
Now that they are finally on the verge of a comeback, and it coincides with the chaos of the Eastern Zhou Dynasty, it is a God-given opportunity for their top ten masters to unite their leaders and prepare their army for attack!
As a result, first the Tianpuppet Master was accidentally captured in Nuanyang Mountain and was trapped in Baoyuan Temple, and now Li Butcher was suspected to have encountered an accident. In just one year, two generals were killed, which was a huge blow to the Demon Sect.
The loss was even much heavier than the loss of three super masters from the Twelve Holy Lands!
The atmosphere in the hospital was frighteningly depressing, making people feel breathless.
Angry Yama smashed the stone table into more than a dozen pieces with one palm, stood up, and said with murderous intent: "It must be those old Dongfang thieves who found the butcher Li one step ahead, a bunch of damn things, they only know how to play
Damn it, if you have the guts to come over and compete head-on!"
Even though they share the same hatred, Wan Jianyan rolled his eyes when he heard this. He thought to himself that in Nuanyang Mountain, the Twelve Holy Lands have been tricked by us. Are you allowed to play tricks, and others can't?
?
"It's useless to be angry. What I'm worried about right now is that maybe Butcher Li was not killed, but captured alive. Don't forget, he has the entire Wanhua Demon Art in his mind." Taoist Xuanyi suddenly came unexpectedly.
One sentence.
The ignorant monk shouted: "The Ten Thousand Transformations of Demons? When did the Butcher practice the Ten Thousand Transformations of Demons?" He had just arrived two days ago and didn't know what happened before.
No one paid attention to him, because everyone present was frightened by Taoist Xuanyi's inference.
Some time ago, they got together and practiced the Wanhua Demon Art day and night, but so far, only Du Yuehong and Wanjian Yanluo have gained anything.
Others have not found a way to get started so far. Everyone knows that most of them have no fate with the Wanhua Demonic Art. Although they are angry and disappointed, there is nothing they can do.
But the problem now is that, based on everyone’s understanding of Butcher Li’s character, if that guy is really captured, in order to save his life, he will probably use the Wanhua Demonic Skill as a bargaining chip!
Once the people of the Twelve Holy Lands master the Ten Thousand Transformation Demonic Art, it will be a catastrophe for the Demon Sect!
Many people felt their scalps numb and couldn't sit still. Angry Yama Luo's face turned green and red, and shouted: "I'll go look outside the city again."
Yao Wu stopped him: "Calm down! We have found everything we need to look for, and everything that needs to happen has happened. There is no use for you to go out alone except to take risks. The plan for now is to think about what to do next!"
Seeing Yao Wu's cold expression and his eyes dim and unreadable, everyone was a little confused. Only Aunt Lei and Du Yuehong were vaguely aware of something.
Yao Wu said solemnly: "In the past two days, I have often analyzed the specific process of the incident and found that we have missed very important clues. The more I think about it, the more uneasy I am!"
Wan Jian Yan Luo asked curiously: "Smelly scholar, what can make you uneasy?" Others also pricked up their ears.
Yao Wu: "Think about it, Zhuo Mufeng already had the strength of a super master at that time. Knowing that something happened to the city lord's mansion, he would have tried his best to get on the road. Why did he stay outside the city with Butcher Li?"
Aunt Lei casually added: "I asked him this question before, and he said he was stopped by Butcher Li, who also deliberately humiliated and ridiculed him."
"That's not right!" Yao Wu immediately denied it with a cold face: "With Zhuo Mufeng's feelings for everyone in the Sanjiang League, how could he not fight with all his might if the butcher Li dared to stop him? Besides, we were not far away at that time, so all we had to do was shout
How dare you, the butcher, make a mistake?"
Originally, no one thought deeply about the disappearance of Butcher Li, but now that Yao Wu deliberately mentioned it, everyone was horrified and shocked.
"Did that kid do it on purpose?" Nu Yanluo said in a loss of voice.
Yao Wu: "I really can't think of any reason why Zhuo Mufeng would be so calm if the city lord's palace was attacked. Unless he had realized at that time that it was Dongfang Changsheng's conspiracy!"
Angry Yama smacked Ba Ba's mouth and said in disbelief: "No way, is that kid so smart?"
Yao Wu looked solemn: "Don't underestimate that kid. You might as well think back on how many great things he has done since his debut in the world until now.
Haha, it’s not just our Holy Sect. The Twelve Holy Lands are so high up there, why are they being tricked by him all the time? Those old guys, I’m afraid they still don’t know who is causing trouble in the Wanhua Tomb!
With that kid's quick wit and reflexes, I wouldn't be surprised at all if he saw through Dongfang Changsheng's conspiracy at that time."
After listening to Yao Wu's words, there was another long period of dead silence in the courtyard.
Everyone recalled it carefully and found that it was really the case. In the past, they only thought that Zhuo Mufeng was a cunning guy who deserved to be killed, and was irritating and hateful. When they realized that he had even tricked the Twelve Holy Lands, they were amazed and at the same time, they felt an inexplicable feeling.
The pleasure of schadenfreude.
But this is not the point. Wan Jian Yanluo looked at Yao Wu: "You mean, Zhuo Mufeng stayed at the scene on purpose? No, that kid is a man who cherishes his life. How could he stay at the scene and take risks? What if he was killed?
If he has enough people, wouldn’t he be seeking his own death?”
This is what Yao Wu couldn't figure out. He still had a bold idea that he didn't say out loud. Perhaps out of intuition, he always felt that the disappearance of Butcher Li was closely related to Zhuo Mufeng!
But he had no evidence, and if he carefully recalled the entire process, he could see that this conclusion could not withstand scrutiny. First of all, Zhuo Mufeng could not have expected that Butcher Li would stay at the scene.
According to Wu Zhi Monk's oral account, when he and Zhuo Mufeng separated, Butcher Li had already fled. In those vast mountains, unless Zhuo Mufeng was extremely lucky, how could he meet Butcher Li?
It was impossible for him to identify Zhuo Mufeng as the murderer based on luck.
"Smelly scholar, I see you are unable to finish your sentence. What do you want to say?" The ignorant monk, who knew Yao Wu best, glared angrily.
Yao Wu glanced at Wu Zhi Monk, and for some reason, this look made Wu Zhi Monk feel cold, so he heard Yao Wu say: "Everyone, we still need to find the butcher, but the top priority is another problem.
At that time, Zhuo Mufeng promised that he would hand over a Demonic Emperor Pearl in half a year. Now I am worried that if I give him another half year, the situation will get out of control."
Today's Zhuo Mufeng already has the strength of a super master. Maybe half a year is nothing to others, but to Zhuo Mufeng, no one can predict his progress. This is by no means sensational.
For a moment, many people present looked murderous, obviously realizing something.
Angry Yama Luo was the most straightforward. This guy actually used the art of sound transmission, as if he was afraid of being overheard: "It is better to strike first. We will take action tonight. When he is not prepared, we will control him and force him to hand over his things."
,Then……"
He made a gesture of wiping his neck and looked ferocious.
Taoist Xuanyi said secretly: "This is not safe. It is better to send another team to attack the people of the Sanjiang Alliance at the same time. This way, even if there is an accident midway, the kid can be defeated."
Hearing this, Aunt Lei and Du Yuehong both gasped and looked at Taoist Xuanyi, who had always been taciturn. Sure enough, even biting dogs didn't like to bark.
They all deliberately avoided the ignorant monk in their transmissions, causing the old bald donkey to look at this and that, with an anxious and extremely crazy look on his face.
The other people who received the message were all silent and did not express any objections. Unexpectedly, at this moment, Aunt Lei said: "In my opinion, I'm afraid it's inappropriate."
After swiping their eyes, one after another turned to Aunt Lei. Among them, Du Yuehong was the most playful, and a smile quickly disappeared from the corner of her mouth.
Taoist Xuanyi asked: "What's wrong?"
Aunt Lei: "Although that boy cares about the people of the Sanjiang League, he is actually a ruthless person. Under such circumstances, do you think he is a pedantic scholar who is stupid enough to be arrested? That will only completely irritate him and turn him away.
Forced into sworn enemies.
And what the angry Yama said, sneak attack at night? Hehe, don’t you know that Yan Yiqing’s yard is next to that boy? That boy is more ghostly than anyone else and is always on guard against us!
If there is any movement on our side, Yan Yiqing will take action immediately.
In addition, outside his yard, there are many formations set up by Lou Linxuan, which even scares me. It is difficult to break through for a while. Can we catch him?
Everyone, before we have a complete strategy, I think it is better to be on the safe side, but don’t make things self-defeating and get nothing by then.”
Everyone was dissatisfied with Aunt Lei's attitude, but they really couldn't refute her words. Nu Yanluo snorted angrily: "According to your opinion, is this how you want to see him grow up?"
Aunt Lei curled her lips and said: "I think you are scared out of your wits by that boy? Do you really think of him as a god? That boy's progress is very fast, but a few years ago, he stood at the peak of the Star Bridge Realm.
Now he is still in the Star Bridge realm, but he has practiced the Ten Thousand Transformation Demonic Kung Fu, so his martial arts has made some breakthroughs.
It is not easy for him to break through to the Hexiang Realm. Even if he is stronger than Tu Juecheng, it will still take several years, right? What are you so anxious about now?
Furthermore, that kid is not allowed to follow the right path, and is now the sworn enemy of the Twelve Holy Lands. If he wants to survive, he has to stay together with us. This is a pursuit of interests.
In turn, he is also our holy sect's sharp knife against the Twelve Holy Lands. At least for a long time to come, he will be of great benefit to us without any harm. The future is long, and we cannot lose our sense and make things that hurt our loved ones.
