Chapter 93

"After our multi-party investigation, we have roughly determined a corner in the northwest of the small town."

"Not bad, most of the missing children are around a manor in the northwest, but that place is quite quiet, which is a bit abnormal."

Xiao Chao, Yue Shulan, and others said while eating and drinking.

"We will go and investigate tonight..."

Tong Yuhua nodded lightly.

As a Patrol Envoy, she naturally became the leader of the group.

"Are there any other Patrol Envoys arriving here?"

Yue Shulan's eyes moved slightly.

She wouldn't think that only they could find the anomaly.

Other Patrol Envoys might also perform this task.

Of course, it was unlikely that all six major Patrol Envoys would gather, and a large number of other tasks also required manpower.

"It is said that a Patrol Envoy under Hall Master Xiao has arrived here; I haven't contacted them yet, so don't worry about them."

Tong Yuhua raised her eyebrows.

Then, the few people stopped talking.

Lu Changsheng had been observing them secretly, guessing that they might start acting at night.

It coincided with his own thoughts.

Just when the DemonSubduingOffice crowd gathered in the restaurant, in a large manor in the northwest of the small town.

Three figures stood in the center of the hall.

Two of them were Zuo Jiliang and Qi Guangcheng, and the other was a tall man in black.

The man had a rough face, and his eyes seemed to have essence flickering.

"This is the first cooperation with your Black Mountain Bandits; I hope we can join forces to kill these government martial artists."

Zuo Jiliang smiled coldly.

In the past ten days, they had already made preparations.

Some flaws were also deliberately released by them, just to lure some government martial artists into the trap and wipe them out.

"Hehehe... I hope to catch a few big fish."

Zhao Changgong smiled, his eyes full of killing intent.

As a Blood Transmutation initial martial artist sent by the Black Mountain Bandits, he was also performing this kind of task for the first time.

Being able to hunt some government martial artists also made his blood boil.

After the few people exchanged for a while, the scene soon returned to calm.

…………

Time passed slowly, and night soon fell.

The high sky was covered with dark clouds, without even a trace of moonlight, and the entire small town fell into a strange darkness.

On the central street of the small town, the doors on both sides were closed tightly, extremely quiet.

In these days, due to the strange child disappearance case, the commoners in the town closed their doors early.

Occasionally, a few constables patrolled around the street, and the entire small town had fallen into a state of martial law.

"Swish..."

At this moment, a few figures ran quickly on the roof, heading toward the northwest of the small town.

The group moved extremely fast, like ghosts.

These people were the group of Demon Suppression Envoys led by Tong Yuhua.

In the southeast of the small town, another team of figures was running toward the northwest of the small town.

The two leaders were tall and had extraordinary momentum; they were the two Patrol Envoys under Xiao Tiansi.

Soon, the two sides discovered each other's existence and didn't stop to greet each other.

According to the intelligence they investigated themselves, this place was very likely a transit stronghold.

If it could be destroyed in one fell swoop, the merit points would not be small.

…………

"Creak..."

Lu Changsheng pushed open the door and walked into the courtyard.

When he first arrived in the small town, for his own secrecy, he rented a small courtyard at will.

Then he operated his footwork and ran toward the northwest corner.

His speed was so fast that only residual shadows could be seen in the void.

Before long, Lu Changsheng discovered the traces of Tong Yuhua and the others.

He had been following closely behind the crowd, with extremely small movements.

The group walked all the way and soon arrived in front of a large courtyard in the northwest of the small town.

The courtyard occupied a large area, and the two stone lions at the gate looked extremely majestic, and even the doors were gilded, enough to show the status of the owner.

"This is the place; let's go in and investigate."

Tong Yuhua's eyes were cold.

If a cult stronghold was found, it would be destroyed immediately, and those children would be rescued by the way.

"Swish swish swish..."

Just at this moment, the two Patrol Envoys under Xiao Tiansi also led a group of Demon Subduing Office personnel to this place.

The personnel of both sides stepped into the courtyard and explored forward carefully.

Just as everyone stepped into the courtyard, a sudden change occurred.

A large group of martial artists in black holding steel blades rushed out from the room, surrounding the many DemonSubduingOffice personnel.

This group of people was bloodthirsty, and their bodies were full of baleful aura.

It was this group of cultists of the Wenxiang Sect.

"Immediately wipe out this group of cultists."

The three Patrol Envoys, Tong Yuhua, saw this and immediately gave the order.

They were also a bit puzzled; before everyone explored, the other party actually popped out by themselves, which seemed a bit strange.

However, among these people, there was no Blood Transmutation strongman, so the three Patrol Envoys naturally wouldn't take it to heart.

The three were quite confident, with only one thought in their minds, which was to kill all these cultists.

"Wipe us out?"

A group of men in black sneered when they heard this.

Their eyes looked at the DemonSubduingOffice personnel as if they were looking at dead people.

Such abnormality made the faces of Tong Yuhua and the three tighten.

Just at this moment, a group of cultists suddenly retreated, revealing a passage.

Three men walked out slowly from the main hall, their steps steady and powerful.

"Only these few small fish?"

Zuo Jiliang frowned when he saw the crowd at the scene.

He was thinking that the arrivals would be the two Blood Transmutation Patrol Envoys, Zhu Houyu, so he could leave them here directly.

He didn't expect that they were just a few small fish, which made him quite disappointed.

"Not good, actually three Blood Transmutation strongmen!"

Tong Yuhua and the three were full of despair, as if falling into an ice cave.

They also knew in the first place that this place was probably a trap carefully planned by the other party.

It was just to deal with Zhu Houyu and the two, but they didn't expect to bump into it accidentally.

With their strength, it was absolutely impossible to break out of the encirclement.

If there were no accidents today, everyone would only fall.

Yue Shulan, Xiao Chao, and others were also full of despair, and their bodies were trembling.

Three Blood Transmutation strongmen were enough to make everyone at the scene unable to have any thoughts of escape.

"Kill them all."

Zuo Jiliang waved his hand, his face cold.

He didn't waste words with the DemonSubduingOffice personnel and directly gave the attack order.

"Kill."

A group of men in black immediately killed the DemonSubduingOffice personnel, and the momentum was very fierce.

Even the ground made bursts of roaring sounds.

Zuo Jiliang and the three also rushed toward the three Patrol Envoys, preparing to kill them on the spot.

"Boom boom boom..."

In an instant, the two sides collided, and the energy of the surroundings cut across, with dust and smoke rolling.

Just after the first contact, the Demon Suppression Envoys fell into an absolute disadvantage.

This group of cultists had long been prepared, coupled with the three Blood Transmutation strongmen, making it difficult for the government martial artists at the scene to resist.

In a few moves, Tong Yuhua and the three fell into a desperate situation, with a sense of death appearing on their faces.

Just when the few people were about to activate the blood essence secret art and fight to the death, a sudden change occurred.

A dark figure rushed over from a distance, with astonishing speed, like a ghost.

In the blink of an eye, he arrived in front of Zuo Jiliang and the three.

This person was Lu Changsheng.

He had just arrived outside the courtyard and saw Yue Shulan and others in a desperate situation, so he acted without hesitation.

Lu Changsheng operated the Three Fold Wave and slashed forward fiercely.

Dazzling cold light flickered in the void, and the momentum was extremely fierce.

With this slash, he used his full strength and slashed toward Zuo Jiliang and the three at the same time.

From Lu Changsheng's appearance to his slash, it only happened in an instant.

"It's that mysterious strongman!" Tong Yuhua and the others saw the momentum of the newcomer's strike, their faces extremely excited; this kind of speed and blade technique was only that one in the county city.

Now they finally had a glimmer of life.

With the addition of the Blood Transmutation strongman "Ye Chen" to the battlefield, everyone's hope was instantly ignited, and they exploded with twelve points of strength, actually forcing these cultists to retreat step by step.

"How bold."

Zuo Jiliang roared when he saw this, not expecting the newcomer to be so arrogant, daring to act on the three of them at the same time.

The three immediately used their full strength and killed toward Lu Changsheng.

Several weapons rubbed against the void, making harsh whistling sounds.

Except for Zuo Jiliang's long blade, Qi Guangcheng held a blood-colored long sword, and Zhao Changgong had a pair of strange gloves.

With the three joining forces, the attack was quite fierce.

Yue Shulan and a group of people also looked at the battlefield in front with worry.

Under the joint attack of three Blood Transmutation strongmen, this mysterious strongman Ye Chen probably couldn't resist.

If the other party failed, it would be difficult for them to escape alive.

At this moment, the government martial artists all clenched their fists, staring at the four people fighting in front.

A group of cultists were full of confidence, actually having a strongman come to die; the other party would probably end here.

After a breath.

The two sides collided fiercely.

Violent air waves swept in all directions, the ground cracked, and a cloud of dust and smoke rose.

With one strike, Lu Changsheng landed steadily on the ground, the tiles under his feet all collapsed, which was quite shocking.

He held the long blade, stood with his feet apart, and landed on the ground like a thousand-pound weight.

The Qi and blood in his body were activated to the limit, and as the Great Cauldron Skill flowed through his whole body, a transparent Qi shield wrapped him firmly.

If it weren't for this top-level defensive martial art being practiced to perfection by himself, he wouldn't have blocked this collision so easily.

Zuo Jiliang and the three also stood steadily in place, their faces full of solemnity.

The three of them struck with full strength, but didn't suppress and kill this person on the spot; instead, the other party looked like he had no injuries, which simply overturned the three's cognition.

The two sides' strike actually looked like a draw.

A group of cultists saw this situation and were full of disbelief.

Their eyes were wide, as if they had seen a ghost.

Two top Ghost Soul Envoys, plus the strongman of the Black Mountain Bandits, acted together, and this was the result?

The Holy Sect's intelligence showed that this mysterious strongman was only at the Blood Transmutation initial level? This person's strength was too terrifying.

"So strong."

A large number of government martial artists saw this and were flushed with excitement; in the narrow escape from death, they were incomparably excited.

With such strong reinforcements, they finally had hope of breaking out of the encirclement.

Even Tong Yuhua and Yue Shulan were full of excitement.

A group of government martial artists instantly had rainbow-like momentum, fighting with many cultists.

On the battlefield, the shouting was earth-shattering, and the entire manor was chaotic.

"This person is only at the Blood Transmutation initial level; quickly surround and kill the other party."

At this time, Zuo Jiliang's tone was cold, and his killing intent was cold.

He would never tolerate another mysterious strongman appearing in the government.

The other party looked quite young and had hope of detachment.

This was something the few people didn't want to see at all.

Even if they had to pay some price today, they had to suppress and kill the other party here.

"Kill."

Qi Guangcheng and the two saw this and immediately killed toward Lu Changsheng, the momentum of the strike increasing again.

Clearly, all of them used their unique martial arts.

Lu Changsheng didn't dare to be negligent and directly activated the Great Cauldron Skill to the limit.

The transparent Qi shield flowing throughout his body became thicker and thicker.

Then, he slashed forward with his blade.

Cold light flickered, and bursts of whistling sounds came from the void.

"Boom boom boom..."

The two sides collided again, and violent energy cut across the surroundings.

Zuo Jiliang's weapon was blocked by Lu Changsheng, and the other two's attacks hit Lu Changsheng's body-protecting Qi shield fiercely.

The entire Qi shield didn't shake at all, always round and one.

After Lu Changsheng practiced the defensive martial art to perfection, its power was revealed for the first time.

The full-strength strike of two Blood Transmutation strongmen couldn't shake him at all.

This was the power of top-level defensive martial arts.

"What a strong body-protecting divine skill!"

Qi Guangcheng and the two were full of horror.

Just now, the two felt like they hit a giant rock, and the counter-shock force made their wrists uncomfortable.

A group of government martial artists were also shocked.

They didn't expect this mysterious strongman to also practice a body-protecting divine skill.

Now they were more confident in escaping alive.

"Kill."

Zuo Jiliang and the others killed again.

As if they wouldn't stop until they killed the other party.

"Bang bang bang..."

The four fought fiercely in the courtyard, and the surrounding energy splashed, a mess.

As time passed, Lu Changsheng relied on the body-protecting divine skill to fight three people alone, not falling into a disadvantage at all.

This made Zuo Jiliang and the three feel more and more terrified.

Tong Yuhua and the others saw their reinforcements so fierce, and their momentum also soared, forcing a group of cultists to retreat.

"Let's fight to the death; we must not let this person go back alive."

Zuo Jiliang was actually a bit afraid in his heart; such a martial artist who had practiced both speed and defense to the top was simply too perverted.

If this person upgraded his realm a few more times, it would be enough to run rampant in the entire Changping County.

This threat was too great for the Holy Sect.

"Kill."

Qi Guangcheng and the two heard this and immediately activated their secret arts, a powerful aura rushing straight into the sky.

After the three activated the secret arts, their strength increased again.

Then, the three continued to surround and kill toward Lu Changsheng.

Lu Changsheng's face was very calm, and the Three Fold Wave in his body was activated to the peak.

Bursts of Qi and blood were like sea waves, swarming in, making his momentum climb step by step, as if there was no limit.

"Slash."

He raised his long blade again and rushed up.

"Boom boom boom..."

The roaring sound of the battlefield where the four fought was earth-shattering, and the intensity of the battle soared again, almost reaching the level of Blood Transmutation middle-stage.

Time passed slowly, and another half a cup of tea passed.

Lu Changsheng's transparent Qi shield didn't show any signs of being broken under the repeated attacks of several people.

As if no one could shake him at all.

Even if the three activated secret arts, it was to no avail.

This made Zuo Jiliang and the three feel a sense of powerlessness.

This kind of top-level turtle shell was simply too strong.

Several martial artists of the same level besieged him, but couldn't do anything to the other party.

Unless they could crush him in realm, otherwise the other party would be in an invincible position.

"Let's persist for a while; this person's blood essence cannot maintain the secret art forever."

Zuo Jiliang's eyes flickered with cold light.

He was unwilling to give up just like that.

Zhao Changgong and the two heard this and stabilized their offensive, surrounding and killing with all their might.

Lu Changsheng's face was as calm as water, but he sneered in his heart.

"Add points."

With a thought, he clicked the plus sign behind the state.

A warm current rushed to his heart, and the whole person returned to his peak state again.

The Source Energy Points in his hands were enough for him to fight for days and nights; wanting to exhaust him to death was simply a dream.

Another half an incense stick passed.

Zuo Jiliang and the three gradually felt that something was wrong.

"Why is the other party so persistent? Could it be that this person didn't activate the secret art?"

The three shouted crazily in their hearts.

Just at this moment, Zuo Jiliang suddenly slashed at Lu Changsheng's Qi shield, and then relied on this counter-shock force to retreat quickly.

In the blink of an eye, he disappeared from the battlefield.

Zuo Jiliang saw that the situation was not right and actually ran away directly.
