Chu Chaoan and Xia Houyi looked at each other with cold eyes.

The latter smiled sarcastically after a short period of surprise, with a slightly shy expression on his face, moved a step sideways to get out of the way, and said politely to Chu Chaoan: "Fellow Daoist please first."

Don't you know him?

"Please."

Chu Chaoan looked at Xia Houyi a few more times calmly, and made a wrong step at the same time.

This person doesn't seem to be pretending.

If this is the case, it means that Xia Houyi may not have the memory of the part of his personality before the split.

Who is he now?

Chu Chaoan did not jump to conclusions, he stood where he stared at Xia Houyi who had already left.

The words and deeds of that person in the distance are the same as that of the eldest son of the Xiahou family back then, no matter from which angle you look at it, it is difficult to find a trace of similarity between the two.

Xia Houyi's figure gradually disappeared, Chu Chaoan glanced at the direction he was leaving, and continued to go to Jinghu Lake after a few seconds of pause.

The most important thing right now is to find the Scarlet Sparrow Demon Lord first.

Let's see what he is going to do, and how he will get rid of the restraint on his body.

·

Mirror Lake.

The chirping of birds resounded throughout the sky, and when Chu Chaoan passed by, the place was already crowded with monks who came to watch.

"But is there someone doing it? It's interesting." The discussion has not yet started, and the people who have nothing to do are just watching the fun and don't feel that there is anything unusual here.

And the scene presented at this moment falls in the eyes of Chu Chaoan, which is exactly the same as what Yushui heard in Pengshan City before. I don't know if it is a coincidence or...

The only difference was that the strange man who would appear in front of people did not show a trace.

The Scarlet Sparrow Demon Lord did not appear.

……

Chu Chaoan followed a trace of demon power and found Yushui waiting under a huge willow tree in the southeast corner.

"My lord." Seeing him, Yu Shui stepped forward a few steps.

"Have you found anything?"

Chu Chaoan turned his gaze to the huge lake, watching the strange scene that Sanxiu was talking about.

Countless unknown birds seem to be being drawn, and all of them are hanging on the lake without flapping their wings.

A casual cultivator suddenly hit a spell, and then it couldn't make any waves. The spell disappeared half an inch away from the birds on the lake, as if it was swallowed by something invisible.

Yu Shui also looked at this scene, frowning in thought.

Chu Chaoan said: "The enchantment of demon power."

"The scarlet sparrow demon is really here!" Yu Shui's eyes lit up for a moment, then darkened in a blink of an eye, "But I still can't sense where the demon is."

"It's okay." Chu Chaoan raised his hand and interrupted him.

Now that it has been verified that the anomaly in Jinghu Lake was indeed caused by the Scarlet Sparrow Demon Lord, it will be easy to handle.

Chu Chaoan just needs to wait here for him to show up.

After also understanding his plan, Yu Shui fell silent, they were going to sit on the sidelines and wait for the 'rabbit'.

The small area where the casual cultivators who had just struck out on the opposite side has become noisy at the moment, one of them suddenly said loudly: "I'm from Pengshan City! We also had such a scene a few days ago .”

His words immediately attracted many people to look at him.

The casual cultivator from Pengshan City quickly went on to talk about what he knew, "I heard that there is a demon cultivator, and these birds are under his orders."

Someone wondered: "Demon cultivator!?"

It is rare for a demon cultivator to appear at the monk gathering place with such a big fanfare.

Soon there was a voice from somewhere nearby, "It seems that this demon cultivator is not low-level, and the demon pill should be quite valuable..."

The voice was neither loud nor small, as soon as the words came out, the surrounding area was silent.

It was also a coincidence that it was passed into the ears of Chu Chaoan and Yushui without hindrance.

……

The demon pills of demon cultivators are a hundred times more precious than the internal pills of ferocious beasts and monsters that can be seen everywhere in the cultivation world.

This is also the reason why there are very few demon cultivators in the realm of comprehension.

However, such transactions are only done in private, and not everyone will do this. After all, if a monk wants to kill a demon to obtain the demon pill, he still needs to be afraid of the demon emperor.

The bloodline of the ancient phoenix should not be underestimated.

After the man said this, he seemed to feel a slip of the tongue, and immediately shrank back to that corner of the crowd without knowing it, and disappeared in the crowd.

Yu Shui showed his white teeth, staring at the direction where the person disappeared, his eyes turned cold.

Sensing his imminent move, Chu Chaoan didn't stop him, and the air pressure in his body dropped a little.

However, before Yu Shui could take any action, a shrill scream spread throughout Jinghu Lake for a week.

"what--"

The sound stopped abruptly, and the surrounding crowd dispersed, revealing an open space.

Seeing the place separated by the crowd, there was a bloody figure lying there, his limbs were covered with scars, blood was stained all over the ground, and his death was extremely miserable.

"Dead, dead!"

Under the watchful eyes of everyone, the murder was invisible.

A sense of panic hit everyone's heart.

It's just to watch the excitement, and I didn't expect such a weird thing to happen.

"He, he, how did he die!" Someone exclaimed.

No one found out how this person was killed, not even a trace of breath fluctuation.

·

Yu Shui, who watched the situation on the other side from a distance, paused slightly, and said, "It's him."

The person who was killed was the casual cultivator who just mentioned that the demon pill was valuable.

Chu Chaoan looked at the murder scene that was crowded with people in an instant, and stopped when he was about to go to check.

"Aren't we going?" Yu Shui raised his foot and was about to go there, intending to go there to see what happened, when Chu Chaoan stopped.

Before Chu Chaoan could answer, a voice burst out from the crowded crowd over there, "There is a demonic aura! It is the work of demon cultivators!"

Hearing this, Yu Shui inexplicably felt a chill down his spine, and took back the steps he took.

Chu Chaoan's brows were stern, his expression darkened, and he said in a low voice, "Let's go."

The Scarlet Sparrow Monarch found them.

***

The demon cultivator appeared in Hongcheng, and killed a casual cultivator with great fanfare.

Loose cultivators, the most unique group of people in the realm of comprehension, have no schools or sects, but they exist in almost every corner of the entire Huanling Continent.At the same time, they are also very united.

There was a story about casual cultivators being killed in Hongcheng, and it spread quickly.

When the casual cultivators who were still in Hongcheng heard the news, they immediately raised a fuss.

Many people have poured into the city lord's mansion to ask for an explanation why the demon cultivators were allowed to enter the city indiscriminately.

·

Ji Liang and the others went to the front hall to watch the fun and came back and said to Chu Chaoan: "Brother Lu, you came late yesterday, so you probably didn't see that demon cultivator killed someone in front of so many monks so grandiosely, that person dead..."

A group of people talked to him vividly.

Chu Chaoan listened carefully, thinking about it in his heart.

Yesterday, Scarlet Sparrow Demon Lord should have discovered Yu Shui's trail in advance, so he left before he rushed there.

And that casual cultivator who was killed...

So it looks weird.

Besides Chique Yaojun, Yu Shui and him, there is no fourth monster clan in Hongcheng.

Since the four of them did not do it, where did the evil spirit on the dead man come from?Just because last night there was more than one person who discovered the evil spirit.

If he and Yu Shui had stayed there at that time, it would have been noticed and regarded as a murderer.

After leaving Jinghu, Yu Shui left the city.

He wanted to stay with him, but Chu Chaoan refused.

"Your cultivation base is too low." Chu Chaoan said calmly.

Yu Shui was choked by him, and for a long while, "My lord, be careful." After finishing speaking, he obediently left Hongcheng.

Chu Chaoan asked him to leave not for his own convenience, but once Hongcheng started to guard, with Yushui's strength, he would definitely not be able to escape.

And he has a system, so he doesn't need to worry about the Hongcheng guarding and searching the place of the demon cultivators after the casual cultivators make a fuss.

However, it happened to stay to continue looking for the location of Scarlet Sparrow Demon Lord, and to deal with Chao Yanzong.

……

The casual cultivators made a fuss, but the result was as Chu Chaoan expected.

Hongcheng began to search for the demon cultivators.

Chu Chaoan was not surprised when he heard Ji Liang and others mention this.

"It's a pity, senior brother, you didn't see the wonder of Mirror Lake." Ji Liang was at the scene yesterday, "I heard that it was also made by demon cultivators."

It's just that why the demon cultivator would attack that loose cultivator is unknown.

"Now the front hall of the City Lord's Mansion is full of big shots, Senior Brother Lu, will you come with us?"

As if afraid that he would not agree, Ji Liang said, "It's much more than what I saw at the last event!"

Chu Chaoan became interested.

Upon seeing this, Chen Jin followed up with the conversation, "City Master of Hongcheng, Master of Penglai Pavilion, Master of Shao Pavilion, Patriarch of the Three Great Aristocratic Families, Master of Heavenly Sword Sect... the host and abbot of Banruo Temple,"

"There is also Zen Master Juechen!" Ji Liang interjected suddenly when he mentioned Banruo Temple.

Chu Chaoan was taken aback, "Zen Master Juechen is here too?"

"Yes!" The two nodded while talking, "Isn't Senior Brother Lu familiar with Zen Master?"

Hearing this, Chu Chaoan stood up, "Let's go, let's go there together."

The three went all the way to the front hall.

There are also a few casual cultivators who can report their names. Several casual cultivators were invited to come to discuss the Tao, and now they are also sitting together with other casual cultivators who came to the city lord's mansion to discuss their opinions.

When Chu Chaoan passed by, he really saw Zen Master Juechen.

He was sitting right behind Host Huiming and Abbot Huimiao, twirling the beads quietly, muttering something, not knowing which Buddhist scriptures he was reciting.

The next moment, Xu Shi noticed his gaze.

Juechen suddenly looked at Chu Chaoan.

Facing those black eyes full of Buddha nature for a moment, Chu Chaoan silently performed a Buddhist ceremony with him, feeling a little puzzled: Zen Master Juechen didn't save the Chu family from Banruo Temple, why did he come to Hongcheng again?

……

Chu Chaoan didn't go in, but after looking away from Juechen's gaze, he met Jiang Jin's gaze again.

The latter waved to him.

"Senior Brother Lu, go in," Ji Liang smiled and pushed behind him, joking with the other senior brothers next to him, "It's better for Senior Brother Lu, as soon as he comes, he will be noticed by His Majesty, so you can go in and sit down."

After Chu Chao settled down, he still walked towards Jiang Jin's place.

Passing by the place where several family members were sitting, Dongfang Xin was still smiling at him, as if greeting him.

Chu Chaoan nodded with him.

As soon as he entered, he heard a person say, "There is a demon cultivator killing casual cultivators in Hongcheng, can Elder Hong make a decision?"

Although this person's tone was respectful, it was full of injustice.

Presumably he is a casual cultivator.

However, when Chu Chaoan heard the word "Hong Lao" in his words, he stopped walking into the hall, raised his head, followed the direction of Sanxiu's speech, and looked straight to the left of the first person.

Old Hong!

Chu Xiao, the patriarch of the Chu clan, called "Hong Lao Dao" in his mouth, a person who can read the fortune chart.

Will it be him?

As soon as Chu Chaoan looked over, he happened to see the person sitting above him. At this time, he also slowly turned his head to his own position, and he met Hong Lao's eyes that seemed to know everything.
