Chapter 52: Remains of a Great Demon

"Junior Brother Changqing, I'll go with you."

A disciple said, and once these words were spoken, they immediately attracted the support of the crowd.

"That's right, Junior Brother Changqing, we'll go with you. A mere half-demon can be killed by flipping one's hand."

"That's right, Junior Brother Changqing, just rest on the side. These rough jobs, Senior Brother will handle them for you."

The disciples spoke one after another, feeling even more proactive than if they were accepting the mission themselves.

Just kidding, how could they let Junior Brother Changqing be distracted by a mission? They would help with this mission. It was just a half-demon; they could kill it easily.

The sect didn't stipulate that one couldn't help, and there were also team missions.

It was just that under normal circumstances, such situations rarely happened because if you asked someone to help, it meant you had to split the sect points with others.

And sect points were very precious in the Daoyi Sect; no one would be willing to do so.

It was just that for Ye Changqing, the many disciples didn't care about sect points at all; they simply wanted to help, nothing more.

Facing the suggestions of the crowd, Ye Changqing smiled somewhat embarrassedly.

"Thank you, Senior Brothers, but it's just an investigation mission. Junior Brother alone is still..."

Ye Changqing's original intention was not to trouble everyone. After all, he had Xiaobai, and going back and forth was convenient; one person was completely enough. But he wasn't given a chance to speak at all. Before he finished half his sentence, he was directly interrupted by the crowd.

"Junior Brother Changqing, what are you saying? Helping each other between fellow disciples is what should be done."

"That's right, and Senior Brother I originally had business to go to Leshan Town, so it's just right to solve it along the way."

"Junior Brother, don't refuse. Senior Brother is idle and just wants to go out for a stroll."

He couldn't refuse at all. Ye Changqing was also helpless. Finally, Venerable Hong spoke and designated an inner sect disciple to accompany Ye Changqing.

"Changqing kid, let Jin Min go with you. She's good at investigation missions, even Youyou can't compare to her. It can save a lot of trouble."

Jin Min's combat power among inner sect disciples wasn't considered strong, at most it was at a mid-to-low level, and her cultivation base was only at the Perfect Completion of the Golden Core Realm.

Letting Jin Min follow wasn't out of worry for Ye Changqing's safety; after all, he had Xiaobai. It was mainly because the cultivation technique Jin Min practiced gave her keen perception, which was helpful for investigation missions and could save a lot of time.

Seeing that even Venerable Hong had spoken, Ye Changqing didn't refuse in the end.

"Try to come back early."

After breakfast, Venerable Hong said as he left.

He was also worried that if Ye Changqing stayed outside for too long, he wouldn't be able to eat, which was why he arranged for Jin Min to go along.

After arranging Ye Changqing's mission, the disciples left one after another. It was just that thinking about not having a meal at noon, everyone's mood was a bit disappointed.

They would return at the earliest in the evening.

"Junior Brother Changqing, you must come back quickly."

They said one after another with faces full of reluctance. Hearing this, Ye Changqing smiled bitterly and nodded. He was just going out to do a mission, was it necessary?

And he had Xiaobai and Jin Min, this inner sect disciple, accompanying him. Was it necessary to be like this?

Sending everyone off, Ye Changqing looked at Jin Min.

She was a tall, pretty girl, slightly older than Ye Changqing.

"Senior Sister Jin, wait a moment, I'll pack up and we can set off."

"Okay, Junior Brother."

Hearing this, Jin Min smiled. With the smile, two small dimples appeared on her face, which was simply sweet to the heart.

Regarding accompanying Ye Changqing to complete the mission, Jin Min had no resistance at all. Finishing as soon as possible meant eating as soon as possible; this was Jin Min's thought, and it was also the thought of all the disciples, including Venerable Hong, this Peak Master.

After packing up simply, the two of them rode on Little White and left Shenjian Peak, heading straight for Leshan Town.

With Jin Min there, Ye Changqing was finally able to experience the feeling of standing on Xiaobai's back. Spiritual power protected the two of them, and the strong wind around them was completely blocked outside.

At the same time, Xiaobai's speed also increased quite a bit, much faster than the last time.

Just as Ye Changqing and Jin Min were rushing to Leshan Town, in the mountain range outside Leshan Town, a mountain peak that looked unremarkable had been completely hollowed out, forming a huge space.

It was like a huge hall, and in the center of the hall, five figures were sitting together at this time.

Their figures were like humans, but they had different degrees of animal characteristics on their bodies. Without a doubt, these five figures were demon beasts that had transformed.

Demon beasts also had cultivation divisions, starting from the lowest level of Transformation Demon, followed by Mortal Demon, Mystic Demon, Purple Demon, and Primordial Demon.

They corresponded to human cultivators' Qi Sensing, Meridian Opening, Golden Core, Purple Mansion, and Nascent Soul realms, respectively.

And demon beasts that could transform were at least at the Purple Demon level Great Demon.

The five demon beasts gathered here were undoubtedly Purple Demon Realm Great Demons.

And they were gathered outside Leshan Town; it was clear that the matter of Leshan Town was not that simple.

In fact, through the conversation of these five Purple Demons, the matter of Leshan Town was indeed so.

"Leshan Town is under the jurisdiction of the Daoyi Sect after all. With us like this, the Daoyi Sect must have already become alert."

"Then what can we do? Should we just leave those remains alone?"

"Rest assured, we have always sent that half-demon out to investigate. Even if the Daoyi Sect knows, they will only think it's a half-demon causing trouble, and at most send some outer sect disciples, which is completely not worth mentioning."

"This time, we must bring back the remains of Lord Black Feather."

The purpose of these five Purple Demons gathering here was because there was a Great Demon's remains hidden under Leshan Town, and these remains were very important to them.

However, because Leshan Town was very close to the Daoyi Sect, they didn't dare to expose their tracks at all, otherwise, they would definitely be surrounded and killed by the Daoyi Sect.

So these five Purple Demons used a secret technique to control a half-demon, using this half-demon to enter Leshan Town. It looked like a half-demon was causing trouble, but in reality, they were secretly searching for the remains of that Great Demon.

And a half-demon, for the Daoyi Sect, was obviously not worth paying attention to. Even if they sent disciples, at most they would be outer sect disciples, and eight out of ten would be chores disciples.

And for them, whether it was outer sect disciples or chores disciples, there was no difference; they could crush them easily.

Without attracting the attention of the Daoyi Sect, obtaining the remains of that Great Demon, and then quickly fleeing, this was the plan of these five Purple Demons.

Up to now, the plan was perfect. By controlling that half-demon, they had roughly located the remains of that Great Demon.

Now they were just waiting for the right time to take action.

It was estimated that even the Daoyi Sect hadn't expected that there were five Purple Demons secretly operating behind this matter. Otherwise, this mission would have at least required inner sect disciples to take action; it wouldn't have been handed over to chores disciples.

It was just a pity that these five Purple Demons were hidden too deeply, and from beginning to end, they hadn't shown their faces at all. No one knew of their existence.

And the unsuspecting Ye Changqing was currently on the road to Leshan Town with Jin Min. ===== CHAPTER 53 =====
