Jiang Xiaojie led Blizzard's elite team to return to Spring City happily with a huge harvest.
From a distance they noticed something was wrong.
The gates of the fortress were closed, and the city walls were filled with fully-armed soldiers. Everyone was on guard as if they were facing a great enemy. It was obvious that something had happened.
Seeing them coming back, Han Ao, the head of the Red Wolf, rushed over with several people.
"City Lord Jiang, do you know where Ye Peitian is?" Han Ao's face was ashen, his brows were furrowed, and he had obvious injuries. He asked anxiously and flustered. Han Ao is a very introverted and steady person. Even if he guesses that Jiang Xiaojie and Ye Peitian are together, he would not ask them out so directly.
In the past few months, Jiang Xiaojie and Xin Ziming have collaborated with the demon Ye Peitian to go out to hunt demons many times. This is no longer a special secret.
In view of Jiang Xiaojie's strong character and Ye Peitian's just cracking of the disaster of Spring City, apart from some of the cronies left by the former city owner, they muttered a few words about this matter. Most of the people who knew about this matter turned a blind eye and did not make too much criticism.
"What happened. What are you doing with Ye Peitian?"
Jiang Xiaojie looked at Han Ao, Gaoyan and the others who were very anxious. Ye Peitian came back all the way with him. At this moment, I was afraid that he had changed into Lin Fei's clothes and followed him secretly.
At this time, Gao Yan didn't care about the grades anymore, she grabbed Jiang Xiaojie's arm tightly, "City Lord Jiang, where can you find Ye Peitian, tell me quickly! Please tell me! Yu Yu again! Appeared, he took Chihiro! He took Chihiro!"
Gao Yan stomped her feet fiercely, "I don't know why. He said that Ye Peitian can only be replaced."
Qianxun took the initiative to leave with the tenth-order monster. She had no ability to stop it. The monster pointed out that Ye Peitian should go to replace him. No matter whether that person Ye Peitian could agree to this matter, she had to give Qianxun a try. .
Lin Fei, who was wearing a mask, suddenly appeared beside Jiang Xiaojie.
"What did you say?"
Seeing Lin Fei's appearance, Gao Yan endured tears for a long time before falling down, "Lin Fei, why did you come back. Chihiro, Chihiro was taken away by that tenth-order monster, Yu Yu!"
Behind Gao Yan, stood Han Ao, Lao Wu, Yuan Man, Xiao Juan and others. Standing beside Jiang Xiaojie are Awei, Yu Nian and other Blizzard team members.
In front of everyone's eyes, they suddenly saw the man from Chu Qianxun's family, the gentle and considerate Lin Fei who cooks especially delicious food, stretched out his hand and took off the dark silver mask that he had been wearing on his face.
The whole group of people who were originally very excited were shocked when they saw the face exposed under the mask.
"You... what... " Gao Yan couldn't straighten her tongue.
"Sister Yan, who do you think Qianxun was taken away by?" Ye Peitian's face was as cold as the legend.
…
In Yuyu's castle, the monster in human form wears a dress with intricate patterns, and the long straight silver hair is simply and neatly tied back. He was like an aristocrat who came out of an ancient literary work, holding up gentle, politely using a silver branch that was disassembled from the devil's body, he bound Chu Qianxun's hands in front of him.
"Sorry, ma'am. You humans are so cunning, I don't want to cause trouble for myself, that's all I have to do."
Chu Qianxun sat on the ground and raised his arms without making any senseless resistance. She secretly observed the monster and the environment she was in, constantly speculating about the monster's habits and preferences.
Chu Qianxun, who has experienced two worlds, has come into contact with countless monsters, and has a very good understanding of the characteristics of monsters.
Influenced by what she saw and heard in that dream world, she was not like most humans at this time, she only had pure hatred and fear of monsters. She can even understand some of the way these alien creatures think and behave. At this moment, she seemed calm, but her mind kept spinning rapidly, trying to find a way to stabilize the monster and save herself.
The transparent flower window above the dome casts colored light beams on the ground, shrouding the man with the perfect face in front of him. He was gentle and courteous when he spoke, with a personable demeanor, like a classic gentleman. But Chu Qianxun would never let go of his vigilance because of this.
Monsters are extremely simple and extremely cruel creatures.
Most of the high-level monsters are peaceful, full of freshness and curiosity about the world, and they never kill and abuse human beings indiscriminately.
But at the same time they will never have too much empathy for humans, who are just food in their eyes. They view humans almost the same way humans view poultry, vegetables, fruits, etc.
Sometimes humans also think that creatures such as pigs, cattle and sheep are very interesting, novel and cute at times. But when they are hungry, they will never give up eating because of this, and they will never have any psychological burden when they brutally open their stomachs.
Therefore, the cruel cannibalism of those monsters in the eyes of humans is just a reasonable and normal physiological need for these monsters. They may be talking to you just fine one moment, and the next moment they will open their mouths and swallow you whole.
"It doesn't hurt, right?" Yu Yu pulled the restraint on Chu Qianxun's wrist to determine how tight it was, and then he politely released his hand, "I remember you, I am very impressed by you. No, but I am amazed by the strength of your spiritual power. I feel that your tenacity in the spiritual world even surpasses my level."
"We can talk, I'll tell you slowly." Chu Qianxun sat on the ground and looked at him calmly, "I know you may be very interested in us humans, and I also want to get to know you. Since we have to wait here for Ye Peitian to appear, we might as well chat with each other to pass the time."
"You want to chat with me?" Yu Yu walked around her twice on her delicate leather shoes, and finally crouched down in front of her, "It's really strange, you don't seem to be afraid of me. I help, but I can sense the fear and disgust of me in their hearts."
He pointed to Zhong Lixiao and Xiaoyan who were standing far away at the door.
"What do you want to talk to me about? It's really special. It's the first time that a human wants to talk to me." Yuyu is a monster with strong mental power. He has a strong ability to perceive the mental state of surrounding creatures. Chihiro not only has no fear of himself, but even has a real desire to communicate, which makes him feel very novel.
"Do you really like reading human books, especially some medieval cultures?" Chu Qianxun said casually, as casually as chatting with a friend.
"Yes, how did you know that?" Yu Yu was a little surprised.
Chu Qianxun gestured at the very retro clothes on Yu Yu's body and the colorfully decorated walls, "No wonder, you look like someone who came out of Wuthering Heights, the interior of this castle is almost the same as that. It looks like a palace in Arabian mythology, but it looks like a Gothic castle. I always think I have seen it in an illustration in a novel."
"I found one of your bookstores and brought all the books in good condition here. I learned a lot of interesting histories of your human beings through reading. Unfortunately, those books are not many, and I have read them all." Yuyu Speaking of this is a little proud, but also a little regretful.
"Anyway, we have to wait here for Ye Peitian's arrival, and it may take a long time. If you are interested, I can tell you some novels about other types of human beings."
"Oh, my lovely lady, do you mean to be my Scheherazade?"
"Yes, it's Scheherazade, can you let me try it?" Chu Qianxun frankly admitted that he wanted to delay time.
"Of course I can, I'm very honored. Although I can't give you a thousand and one nights. But if you can arouse my interest, after Ye Peitian comes, I can even promise not to take your life."
Zhong Lixiao leaned on crutches, supported her rotten body, staggered two steps forward, and said in a hoarse voice, "Don't talk to her too much, this is a cunning woman, be careful to be deceived and seduced by her. Leave her in our custody. You just need to focus on waiting for Ye Peitian's arrival."
One of Yuyu's arms suddenly turned into a white branch, extending from the intricately patterned sleeve, and caught Zhong Lixiao's emaciated arms, looked at it in the air, dragged it in front of him, and then again. Disgusted and left far away,
"Please keep quiet and recognize your own identity. I know that you are an immortal like Ye Peitian, but you are like a fake, full of decay and mold. But if you continue to make me unhappy, I will I don't mind trying it out to see if your taste increases my power as much as he does."
Zhong Lixiao struggled to get up from the ground, and with the help of Xiaoyan, retreated to the corner of the castle. Moody, powerful and terrifying monsters they really don't want to face, but they are reluctant to take this opportunity to obtain holy blood.
Zhong Lixiao is an immortal who was born in the laboratory of God's love. Unlike Ye Peitian, although his body will not die, with the improvement of the level and the application of supernatural powers, his body has a strange appearance. rapid aging. Only when he was injected with the real holy blood could he regain a moment of youthfulness.
There is not much left of the holy blood that he had stockpiled in the early days. He hated that old and rotten body, and longed for a youthful and energetic look. When he learned from the people of God's Love that he could use this tenth-order monster, he made up his mind that he must take this opportunity to obtain Ye Peitian's holy blood. It is best to gain the trust of this monster and get Ye Peitian's blood in large quantities for a long time. For this reason, no matter how much he swallowed his voice, he could endure it for the tiger.
In the City Lord's Mansion in Spring City, after listening to Han Ao's introduction to the whole situation, everyone present felt a burst of anxiety.
That tenth-order monster, they used the strength of the whole city, but they were barely able to compete. Now that he has a hostage in his hand, and he is fighting at home again, everyone is fighting against the rat, trying to rescue Chu Qianxun from him is easier said than done. What's more, there are two human beings who work for the tiger by his side.
Jiang Xiaojie paced back and forth in the room irritably, and finally hit the wall with his fist.
But the man who had always protected Chu Qianxun like a baby was uncharacteristically calm. After entering the city, he put on his mask again, sat calmly in the room and listened to Han Ao describe every detail, with his head lowered and he silently pondered.
Gao Yan looked at her familiar appearance, but she really couldn't connect Chu Qianxun, a delicate and soft-bodied boyfriend who could easily be pushed down, with the legendary murderous man and demon. The moment Lin Fei showed her face, she was so shocked that her jaw almost dropped. But for the safety of Chu Qianxun, she could only reluctantly clean up her emotions, and spoke carefully to the famous human demon,
"Now, what should we do now? Anyway, we still have to rush to the place where the monster said. Otherwise, Chihiro will be in danger. I, although I am not high-level, I will go with you if I try my best. Save Qianxun."
"I have to go immediately. Qianxun gave Xianxian the holy blood she brought with her. Her situation is only more dangerous." Han Ao said, "When she was taken away, I was helpless and very guilty, and it is my duty to participate in the rescue. ."
"Go save Sister Qianxun with us."
"Count me in. I'll go too."
Ye Peitian heard that the special medicine he had left for Qianxun had been used, and his palms on his knees clenched suddenly.
"Everyone, calm down. It's been a few days since this matter. All Axiao and Yuyu want is me. I haven't gone yet. They won't hurt Chihiro's life."
He put his palms back on his knees, the palms were pale, strong, and unusually stable, "We must stay calm and ensure Chihiro's safety. Too many people can easily reveal whereabouts."
Jiang Xiaojie immediately said, "That's fine, I'll accompany you. Let's call Lao Xin. According to the route, the Qilin base is on the way, and we won't waste time."
Ye Peitian nodded to him, "Besides Lao Xin, there is another person. If I can invite him, the probability of success will greatly increase. I think, I must invite him."
"Then what are you waiting for? Let's go right away!" Jiang Xiaojie jumped.
Ye Peitian stood up. When he took the first step, he stumbled and almost tripped over the chair, but the second and third steps became more and more stable, and he finally ran out of the door.
