He discovered something? Tian Chi looked at Su Mengyao's somewhat strange expression and nodded, indicating for her to continue.
Fifteen minutes ago, Su Mengyao received Tian Chi's instructions and immediately left Qianmo Village, searching for mo soldiers in the surroundings at an extremely fast speed.
Although they were mo soldiers, Qianmo Village was located in the most remote part of the south, and Yuzhou was 50 miles to the north. There were also other towns in the east and west, so it was very difficult for larger mo soldiers to infiltrate. There were only a few small groups scattered in the surrounding mountains.
There were only a dozen or so of these small mo soldiers, and most of them were low-level phantom mo and half-body mo. They could only attack small villages or hunt some wild beasts, but they could not do much.
But even so, Su Mengyao still followed His Highness Qin Wufeng's instructions and made these little mo soldiers move away from Qianmo Village.
In the southern forest, a faint blue figure was constantly shuttling through the top of the trees. Its speed was so fast that some people or birds who were lucky enough to see this scene could only see a blurry shadow.
With Su Mengyao's strength as a Demon Master, she only spent fifteen minutes to find and disperse four or five small groups of Demon soldiers.
However, when she passed by a valley that was only a dozen miles away from Yuzhou, she discovered something strange.
When Su Mengyao was about to rush to the next location, she suddenly noticed a familiar aura lingering in the air.
The remnants of this aura were very secretive, and usually only high-level demons of the same species would be able to detect it. This was why it had attracted the attention of Princess Snowfiend.
Formless Demon? No, this aura was so exquisite that it was very likely to be left behind by a Demon Master. However, there was no Demon Master registered in Yuzhou. Who could he be?
Su Mengyao pondered for a moment and followed the aura. The trajectory of the aura went straight into a valley not far away. Clearly, its owner had just passed by here not long ago.
The unexpected appearance of a Demon Master was not a small matter for Su Mengyao or even the entire Frost City.
Currently, there were a total of 28 Demon Masters living in the world. Apart from the ten who were chosen to enter Frost City and were given the title of Ten Demon Masters, there were still more than ten Demon Masters outside.
Some of these scattered Demon Masters belonged to Frost City and were under the direct jurisdiction of the ten Demon Masters, while others chose to live freely and dominate their own small circle, like vassals.
Regardless, the appearance of any Demon Master had to be registered with Zhou Feng Jiao and leave behind a mark of their aura. This was a sign of submission to Demon King Qin Wufeng. They promised to be loyal to the Demon soldiers forever and were also protected by Frost City.
Under such circumstances, Demon Masters who did not belong to the Demon Weapon were basically not allowed to appear. If they were determined to resist and submit, the ten Demon Masters would personally execute them.
Anyway, he would go and take a look first. Su Mengyao's graceful figure flashed and leaped, appearing above the valley in an instant. Her clear and beautiful eyes stared carefully at the mountain path below.
Someone was there? And there was more than one?
Although the situation in the valley was a little complicated, with all kinds of plants growing everywhere, the rock layers and cliffs at the edge were also very dazzling, and the sky was filled with fog, Su Mengyao could still sense the sneaky figures in an instant.
The extreme ice demons had extremely sensitive air currents, and they rarely made mistakes when searching for targets like cold forest hunters. This was also the strongest point of this group.
Among the four human blood cultivators, the strongest was around silver-level, and the weakest was only bronze-level. It was like an ordinary blood cultivator team.
However, the strange thing was that the demonic aura that Su Mengyao had been following was actually coming from this team? What was going on?
As these people were all very weak, they naturally did not know that the Demon Master was the main body of the Demon Master. However, with such a dense aura, unless one had been in contact with it for a long time, their bodies would not be eroded unknowingly.
Could it be that the Demon Lord whose whereabouts were not known by Frost City had some kind of ambiguous relationship with these human blood cultivators?
With these questions in mind, Su Mengyao hid her body and quietly moved toward the four human blood cultivators.
Not long after, in this valley shrouded in fog, a well-equipped four-man team appeared for some reason.
They carried all kinds of weapons on their waists or backs and wore a full set of martial attire. It was obvious that they were a very experienced adventurer team.
"Brother Long, is it okay for us to sneak in openly? If they were discovered by that monster, they might really be wiped out.”
At this moment, a shifty-looking guy walking at the side said.
As he spoke, he carefully observed his surroundings, as if he was afraid that something would suddenly appear from the dense fog and swallow him.
"Meng Cui, can you not always be so timid? I've told you many times that as long as I'm here, nothing is difficult. After all, I'm a Demon Slayer. I'd like to see who else can kill us.”
After hearing his companion's words, the person called Brother Long spat on the ground and said fiercely.
This Brother Long was extremely handsome. He was tall and had an arrogant face. He looked quite handsome when he was dressed in a proper blood cultivator's attire. However, the indelible fierceness in his eyes ruined his handsome appearance.
Brother Long, whose full name was Long Tatian, was a Demon Slayer who had just transmigrated to this world. Of course, his real name was not that. This extremely chuunibyou name was obviously changed by him.
Half a month ago, the Demon Slayer appeared in Yuzhou, not far from here. What was more interesting was that he was immediately hit by a serious blow, such as being regarded as a hopeless good-for-nothing and his humiliating fiancée breaking off the engagement.
However, Long Tatian would not admit defeat. When he was demoted from a young master to a toilet cleaner, he picked up a magical ring from a broken urinal. The ring contained the soul of an old man, and the old man taught Long Tatian many cultivation methods that surpassed common sense, allowing his strength to soar in a short period of time.
In just half a month, Long Tatian had turned from a useless person into a powerful silver-level blood cultivator. He had also gathered three companions and planned to search around Yuzhou.
By chance, he actually discovered some treasure in this valley, but this treasure was guarded by a powerful monster.
But it didn't matter! I am a Demon Slayer. Long Tatian looked at the three scapegoats beside him and smiled sinisterly. He knew that no matter how difficult it was to obtain the treasure, it would eventually fall into his hands because he was the protagonist, right?
"But Brother Long."
"But what? A man shouldn't be so timid! If you can do it, then do it. If you can't, then get lost!"
Because of the fog, everyone's vision was reduced to an extremely low level, but Long Tatian's arrogant scolding clearly echoed in the surroundings.
Seeing that this big brother didn't listen to his warning, the blood cultivator named Meng Tian also shut his mouth. He quietly moved forward and landed at the back of the team.
"Sky Trampling, there's a strong beast aura here. I'm afraid there's a powerful beast here. With your current strength, it'll be very difficult for you to defeat it.”
As the group of four continued to advance, a voice suddenly sounded in Long Tatian's mind. It was an old voice, and it sounded somewhat illusory.
"Alright, Pill Elder. I'll use these three idiots as bait to lure that monster out. Then, I'll sneak in and take the things before leaving.”Long Tatian did not find it strange when he heard the voice in his mind. Instead, he replied respectfully.
The old voice in his mind was the key helper that had helped Long Tatian to turn the tables in such a short time. It was an old man who called himself Pill Elder.
It was said that this Pill Elder was the most powerful general in the world hundreds of years ago and had the strength to fight against the Demon King alone. He was the strongest person among the humans and was as powerful as he could be.
However, this master was ambushed in a battle, causing him to lose his body. He could only hide in this ring in the form of a soul, waiting for the fated person to appear, and Long Tatian was that fated person.
Under Pill Elder's guidance, Long Tatian's strength had not only skyrocketed, but he had also learned many secrets of this world. For example, the secret of a human with the potential of a Demon Slayer that would appear every once in a while.
After learning of this fact, Long Tatian was overjoyed and immediately followed Pill Elder's instructions, hoping to quickly become stronger and stronger. In the end, he would kill the Demon King and take over the entire world.
However, what Long Tatian did not realize was that although Pill Elder said that he was a powerful human blood cultivator, in fact, this ring was filled with extremely dense demonic qi!
The traces of demonic Qi that Su Mengyao had been feeling before were actually remnants of this ring. However, this feeling was only possessed by a very small number of high-level demons. Even the most powerful humans could not detect it.
Thus, although Long Tatian had always treated Pill Elder as his guiding light, he did not know that this master had lied to him, and it was a huge lie.
