C5371 In the Courtyard of the Demon Clan
Thus, Ye Feng and the other four arrived at the Limu County in the afternoon. This county was much smaller than the Bai Gu County, only half of the size of the Bai Gu County.
There were not many cultivators in the Limu County, only a hundred or so. The strongest family in the Limu County, the Gao Family, was only at the Ninth Stage of the Spiritual Core Realm.
This was a normal county. The Ancient White County had four great families, and each of them had a Spiritual Connection Realm expert. In the Fragrant Sky City, they were also a powerful force.
The name of the Limu County came from a huge tree in the center of the county square. It was ten thousand feet tall, and its trunk was a hundred meters wide. It stood up like a small mountain.
Ye Feng followed Zhao Liang and the others to the top of the huge tree, waiting for Zhao Liang to arrange for the northern hall of the Limu County to take care of him.
Soon, the northern hall's subordinate appeared. He was short and ordinary-looking, but his eyes were exceptionally bright. He was also the fourth disciple of the Fragrant Sky Academy. Zhao Liang's northern hall was the most important talent, and he was proficient in scouting for information, Luan Xin.
Luan Xin was born with keen senses. He had successfully mastered a secret technique that was extremely difficult to learn in the Fragrant Sky Academy, called the Demon Sensing Technique.
Once Luan Xin used the Demon Sensing Technique, he could sense the demons within a radius of ten miles, regardless of how well they disguised themselves. As long as they did not exceed his two major realms, he could sense them.
The reason why Zhao Liang led Ye Feng and the others to the Liyun County was because Luan Xin had sensed the existence of the Demon Clan here, and there were quite a few of them.
"Hall Master, Senior Brother Cauldron …"
After Luan Xin arrived, he first greeted Zhao Liang and the others. They were all disciples of the fourth year, and they were all members of the Cyanwood Alliance. They knew each other well and had a good relationship.
The only one that Luan Xin did not know was Ye Feng, the junior brother who had just entered the Fragrant Sky Academy and joined the Cyanwood Alliance.
"Who is this?"
Luan Xin was a little surprised. He liked to make friends in the Fragrant Sky Academy. Although he was not a friend of the fourth year disciples, they all knew each other.
Ye Feng was a stranger to Luan Xin, so Luan Xin was a little curious as to why he had never seen Ye Feng among the fourth year disciples.
"Greetings, Senior Brother Luan Xin. I am Ye Feng, the fifth year Inner Sect disciple of the academy."
Ye Feng greeted politely.
"Fifth year?"
Luan Xin was a little shocked. The fifth year disciples had just entered the academy a few days ago, and their strength was relatively weak, so they did not have the qualifications to join the Cyanwood Alliance.
However, Ye Feng's realm had already reached the Eighth Stage of the Spiritual Core Realm. Now that he had been brought here by Zhao Liang, it was obvious that he had become a member of the Cyanwood Alliance. This proved that Ye Feng had something extraordinary about him.
"Haha, Junior Brother Ye Feng, if you have the ability, Hall Master Zhao Liang would have taken a fancy to you as soon as you entered the academy. Your future is limitless."
Luan Xin said with a laugh.
After that, Luan Xin told him the information he had gathered during the past few days.
In the Liyu County, there was a restaurant called the Brilliant Sun Restaurant. It was a restaurant that had been around for a hundred years, and it was owned by the family of the Liyu County, the Yang Family.
The number one family in the Liyu County was the Gao Family, and their Patriarch was at the ninth level of the Spirit Core Realm. The second family was the Yang Family, and their Patriarch was at the eighth level of the Spirit Core Realm.
However, after a thorough investigation, Luan Xin discovered that the Patriarch of the Yang Family had already broken through to the second level of the Spirit Core Realm, and he was already able to defeat the Patriarch of the Gao Family, allowing the Yang Family to become the number one family in the Liyu County.
However, the Patriarch of the Yang Family did not do so. Instead, he would stay in the family every day, and he would pretend that he was only at the eighth level of the Spirit Core realm.
Apart from that, the business of the Brilliant Sun Restaurant had also been getting more and more popular recently. There were endless customers every day, and they were basically all returning customers. The guests all expressed that the food of the Brilliant Sun Restaurant was extremely delicious, and it was simply a delicacy of the human realm.
Luan Xin cast the Demon Sense Technique, and he discovered that there was a dense Demonic Qi in the Brilliant Sun Restaurant, and the food also carried a Demonic Qi. At the same time, the disappearance of the guests in the Brilliant Sun Restaurant had also appeared.
However, the Yang Family was very powerful in the Liyu County, and after the disappearance of the guests, the Yang Family quickly suppressed the news, and not many people knew about it.
Luan Xin felt that the Yang Family must have colluded with the Demon Race, and that was why the Patriarch of the Yang Family was able to break through to the second level of the Spirit Core realm in such a short period of time. This was also the reason why the food of the Brilliant Sun Restaurant carried a Demonic Qi, and the reason why the food tasted so good.
“Mm, according to your discovery, the Yang Family must have colluded with the demon race.”
Zhao Liang nodded his head with a gloomy expression, and then asked Luan Xin, "Didn't you say that you sensed the presence of quite a number of demon beasts, and they were all in the Hui Yang Inn?"
"No, I sensed ten demon beasts. All of them were at the Spirit Core Realm. They were hiding in a courtyard in the Li Mu County, and all the ordinary people in the courtyard were killed by them."
Luan Xin gnashed his teeth when he mentioned the ten demon beasts. He saw the scene of the demon beasts devouring the humans. It was bloody and cruel. If it wasn't for Luan Xin who was in charge of investigating the demon beasts, and was worried that he would accidentally alert the demon beasts, he would have killed all the demon beasts long ago.
"Hehe, these demon beasts."
A cold light flashed across Zhao Liang's eyes, and he said, "Now that we are here, we can also prepare to attack. Since the demon beasts in the courtyard are all at the Spirit Core Realm, we will leave them to Ye Feng and you. You go and kill these demon beasts, and leave one alive."
"I and Shi Ding will be in charge of keeping an eye on the Yang Family. We will make sure that the Yang Family's Patriarch won't escape. Shi Yun and Liu Yun will be in charge of keeping an eye on Hui Yang Inn, and ensure that we can catch all of these demon beasts in one fell swoop."
"Alright."
Shi Yun and Liu Yun nodded their heads and agreed.
Luan Xin looked at Ye Feng and grinned, "Junior Brother Ye Feng, there are five Stage Nine Spirit Core Realm demon beasts in the courtyard. They are very strong. Are you afraid?"
"Haha, Senior Brother Luan Xin is at the Second Stage of the Spirit Cultivator Realm. With you around, what are you afraid of a bunch of Spirit Core Realm demon beasts?"
Ye Feng said with a smile.
"Well said, Junior Brother Ye Feng. Don't worry. If we really fight, I will definitely protect you and not let you get hurt."
Luan Xin smiled in satisfaction. He did not know Ye Feng's ability. Although Ye Feng was chosen by Zhao Liang because of his talent, he was probably only at the Eighth Stage of the Spiritual Core Realm. He could not fight against someone at the Ninth Stage of the Spiritual Realm, right?
In Luan Xin's opinion, Ye Feng was in danger when he encountered these demons. Therefore, he reminded Ye Feng in advance so that he could protect Ye Feng.
"Then let's start moving."
Zhao Liang knew Ye Feng's ability. He could fight against He Yingmeng and his strength was comparable to the Second Stage of the Spiritual Realm. Therefore, he was not worried about Ye Feng's safety.
However, Zhao Liang did not tell Luan Xin about Ye Feng's strength. He was prepared to let Luan Xin discover it himself and shock him.
The group of people split up. Ye Feng followed Luan Xin to the courtyard where the group of demons lived. It was a large courtyard at the edge of Lianmu County.
There was a family of five living in this courtyard. Although their lives were dull, they were very happy. However, they were all killed by the demons.
In the courtyard, there were a few blurry figures. These were illusions created by the demons using demonic techniques. They were used to confuse ordinary people so that the commoners would not discover that the family had already died.
