"...."

At this moment, a few village soldiers, holding white rod guns and dressed in cloth armor, shivered in the cold, stamping their feet non-stop, rubbing their hands, embracing their guns, whispering to each other, their breath forming frost as they complained bitterly.

While the village soldiers were talking, a swooshing sound of clothes rustling was heard above them.

The next second, a figure in a red dress descended, landing in front of the one governmental official among them.

The governmental official was pacing back and forth, trying to ward off the chill of the early morning.

Hearing the noise, he instinctively placed his hand on the waist knife at his side, his eyelids twitching.

"Who is it?"

As the governmental official saw clearly who had arrived, his eyes widened in surprise, and he immediately stepped forward to bow in greeting, "I’ve seen the Military Officer Captain!"

The three White Pole Soldiers behind him, upon seeing the stunningly beautiful woman in fiery red, stared dumbfounded, only to see the governmental official turn his head and glare fiercely at them,

"Keep staring and you’ll pay with your skin."

"This is Lord Lian, the Mountain Patrol Military Officer; show your respects now."

The village soldiers from the neighborhood snapped to their senses, getting a fright and quickly bowed their heads.

"We’ve seen the Military Officer Captain!"

The title of Mountain Patrol Military Officer held a special significance in the hearts of the people of Qingshan County, and no disrespect was tolerated, otherwise one would find no place in the entirety of Qingshan County.

This was no joking matter.

As Qingshan County attracted more and more outsiders, there were those who did not believe in this.

Previously, someone from a neighboring county spoke recklessly and was beaten half to death by the locals, then taken away by the government office. He was still locked up in the dungeon, his fate unknown.

"I am here on official business, you all step aside!"

After Lian Nichang spoke, she moved slightly aside, revealing behind her a figure wearing a bamboo hat and dressed in green clothes, emerging from behind her.

The governmental official, bowing low, was startled upon seeing this person appear, then curiously pondered the identity of the person accompanying the Military Officer Captain.

But as his gaze swept over, the bamboo hat was tilted low, showing only the corners of the mouth.

"Ah!"

Without being impertinent to ask, he responded and then turned to beckon the White Pole Soldiers aside, leading them away.

Meanwhile, Lian Nichang and the man in green clothes approached the well. With a wave of her sleeve, the heavy stone over the well, as light as a piece of foam, was effortlessly flipped aside.

"Brother, please go ahead!"

The figure in green clothes, wearing a bamboo hat, was Chen Yuan. Following Lian Nichang stepping aside, Chen Yuan approached the well. His brows rose under the bamboo hat, his pale golden pupils gazing down into the well.

The walls of the well were covered in green moss, and the surface of the water had floating fragments of snow melted into ice.

In Chen Yuan’s vision, the once-clear water gradually turned pitch black as if ink was spreading through it, and within this blackness, small red dots twinkled. As he focused and his pupils sharpened to the fine point of a needle, these red dots were revealed to be tiny red worms, like iron thread worms, segmented and disgustingly wriggling.

Soon, he extended a finger towards a spot over the well.

A thread of golden fire shot out from his fingertip, striking into the well.

The flame hit the water’s surface, making no splash, silent and soundless, but in Chen Yuan’s vision, the golden Elixir Fire upon hitting it caused the tiny red worms to violently contract, and then, they were consumed by the golden fire.

Seeing this, the golden specks in Chen Yuan’s eyes scattered, returning to normal, and he also withdrew his finger, his expression becoming pensive.

"It seems I was right, it indeed is the Demon Gu, acting like a parasite. Once people drink the water, they get infected, and it slowly consumes the host’s vitality, gradually nurturing the Demon Seed. Eventually, the Demon Seed devours more qi and blood, leading to the catastrophe of Human Demons."

"The previous outbreak of Human Demons originated this way."

"If nothing unexpected, this Human Demon is the very one that escaped from my hands in Jingguan City!"

Chen Yuan was almost certain this was the same Human Demon from the battle at Five Treasures Mountain, who clashed with him and fled defeated.

All details about the person, time, and event matched up.

Could it be that the Martial Storage in his tower also came from Chengsheng Land? But he claimed to be a person from the Court.

He hadn’t yet managed to extract the truth from him.

Now, this Human Demon from Chengsheng Land was spreading the Demon Gu in Qingshan County, wanting to turn it into a dead city, seeking revenge against him.

It seems like completing a cycle of reincarnation!

Initially, the disaster caused by the Human Demons outside White Emperor City was orchestrated by this very Human Demon, and was completely eradicated by Chen Yuan.

However, Chen Yuan now harbors a doubt.

He had deep interactions with these Human Demons of the Feixian Sect previously, fighting his way from the lowest ranks to their Four Symbols Venerable, learning the characteristics of these Human Demons.

They bewitched the entire Qingshan County with Gu, but the formation of the Demon Seed isn’t an overnight process; otherwise, the disaster caused by the Human Demons would be unimaginably horrifying.

The transition from Gu to Demon Seed requires time, not just ten days or half a month, and during this time many variables can arise; some people may show abnormalities, signs may emerge, and news might spread, possibly reaching his ears.

Given the Human Demon’s plan at Chengsheng Land, he would surely not overlook this. Moreover, the opponent is seriously injured, and under normal circumstances, should be hiding and healing, waiting for the right moment.

Such actions must have deep reasons unknown to him.

"I need to find that Human Demon!"

Chen Yuan said coldly, then closed his eyes, sinking his consciousness into the Mud Ball, returning to his Primordial Spirit.

At this moment, within the Mud Ball, white mist churned, and a majestic and divine Green-Gold Pagoda floated and submerged therein.

From inside, waves of terrifying screams could be heard.

Chen Yuan’s Primordial Spirit flickered, entering the fifth floor of the tower.

At this time, in the vast Skywell of the fifth floor, several thick golden chains pierced through the figure of a hundred zhang high.

It was the Primordial Spirit of Li Boya from Li Family’s Martial Storage.

Two chains passed through this person’s Pipa bone, the others piercing his limbs, with golden flames around his body turning into whips, viciously lashing at his Primordial Spirit.

The fierce flames burned the Primordial Spirit, leaving trails of charred marks, and the soul-searing agony was unimaginable for ordinary people.

With firelight reflected in his eyes, Chen Yuan’s tone was stern,

"If you don’t want to suffer like this, tell me where that Human Demon is."

"Spare you a capital punishment perhaps, but I can make your departure a bit easier."

At this moment, Li Boya, in agony, shuddered continuously as if about to disperse, his expression fierce, hair disheveled, his eyes emitting a red venomous glare, and he roared:

"Chen Yuan, I know you won’t let me go, hoping to get information about that Human Demon from me, wishful thinking."

"Be careful, that Human Demon is preparing a plan, definitely not a simple one, he will be very pleased to know you are coming, hahaha."

Li Boya let out a piercing yet triumphant scream, causing a rumbling noise in Chen Yuan’s ears.

Chen Yuan watched this man’s hysterical madness and resentment, his eyes gradually narrowing, silently observing the opponent,

"A creature that doesn’t match this General, lurking in the shadows stirring up trouble, what kind of conspiracy have you really prepared? I am quite curious to see."

"Aren’t you curious why this General appeared in Qingshan County?"

"I personally went to Tianxiong Pass, battled the Court’s Demon Suppression Envoy and the Martial Storage of Three Families, beating them all, even when they finally enlisted the Three Families’ Dragon and Tiger, this General still came back alive."

He said this, his gaze turning dangerous.

Upon hearing Chen Yuan’s words, Li Boya, as if hearing an unbelievable piece of news, his hair disheveled, eyes bloodshot, screamed hysterically,

"What?"

"Impossible, you dare to rebel?"

"Even the Three Families Dragon and Tiger couldn’t kill you, you’re full of shit."

Chen Yuan, with an undisturbed demeanor, looked at him as if looking at a dead man.

"So, you fool, you won’t understand, I’m eager to see if you can really stir any waves."

Because he held a trump card.

Saying so, Chen Yuan turned around, then paused, tilted his head, his eyes slanting, lightly chuckled,

"Right, seeing that you can still laugh, it seems my measures are still insufficient."

After finishing his words, Chen Yuan’s silhouette flickered, disappearing in the Demon Suppression Tower.

Then, the Demon Suppression Tower trembled, horrific Demon roars filled the air, and soon a pair of gloomy green eyes swiftly appeared on the fifth floor.

Quickly, shrill cries of agony ensued.
