In Feilai City.
The street was deserted, and the silence was creepy, as if all life had disappeared, leaving only an empty city.
The surrounding buildings also seemed to be full of a mysterious atmosphere, with the windows tightly closed, as if hiding something.
The air was filled with a strange atmosphere, making people feel uneasy.
Suddenly, a gust of wind blew, blowing up the fallen leaves on the ground, but there was no sound. The whole city seemed to be shrouded in silence.
This strange atmosphere was very creepy, as if there was some unknown danger lurking in the dark.
”Da da da…”
The sound of horses’ hooves became particularly clear at this moment, like a death talisman.
”Strange, in such a big city, why can’t we see a single figure?” Niu Dali raised a question.
The Long-browed True Man said, “It seems I’m not wrong. This place is ominous.”
Ye Qiu didn’t speak. He had been looking around and found that not even a single bird could be seen. It was too strange.”
Miss, something is wrong!” Uncle Zhu said with a heavy face.”
The woman lifted the curtain and took a look. She said, “When I passed by Feilai City before, the people here lived and worked in peace and contentment, and they were very happy. The streets were full of people coming and going, and it was very lively. Why has it become like this now?”
It seems that something really happened in Feilai City.”
Uncle Zhu, let’s go directly to the city lord’s mansion.”
Yes!” Uncle Zhu replied and drove the carriage forward along the main road.”
A few minutes later.”
The carriage stopped at the gate of the city lord’s mansion.”
Surprisingly, there was not a single guard outside the huge city lord’s mansion.”
This situation is very abnormal.”
The gate of the city lord’s mansion was closed. The woman gave a look, and Uncle Zhu immediately ordered the guards to go and knock on the door.”
Dong dong dong!”
The guard knocked on the door and shouted inside, “Open the door!”
After a long while.”
The door finally opened a crack, and a little old man stuck his head out from the crack. He looked at the guard vigilantly and asked, “Who are you?”
The guard took out his waist token.”
The Forbidden Army!”
The little old man was so startled that he quickly opened half of the door, walked out from inside, Youdaoplaceholder0 and saluted the guard, and said, “I didn’t know that the adult was coming, and I failed to welcome you from afar. I hope you will forgive me.”
”All right, don’t be polite to me.” The guard said, “Go and tell the city lord that there is an adult here, and ask him to come out and greet him. Hurry up.”
The little old man stood still in place and said with a difficult look on his face, “This…”
”What’s the matter, isn’t the city lord in the mansion?” The guard asked.
The little old man nodded.
The guard frowned and asked again, “Where did the city lord go?”
”The city lord, he…” The little old man hesitated and didn’t dare to say.
”Hurry up and say.” The guard shouted impatiently.
The little old man then said with a hard scalp, “The city lord he… is dead!”
”What?” The guard was stunned for a moment and then asked, “What about the city lord’s family?”
The little old man replied, “Also dead.”
”Then who else is alive in this mansion?” The guard asked.
The little old man said, “Only I am left.”
The guard: ”…”
The guard turned around and ran to Uncle Zhu, reported the situation in a low voice, and Uncle Zhu was also astonished. He walked up to the little old man and took out a gold token and shook it.
Seeing this, the little old man’s eyes showed, and he quickly knelt on the ground and said respectfully, “Greetings to the adult.”
“Get up!” Uncle Zhu asked, “What exactly happened in Feilai City?”
“Sir, how about we talk inside?” The little old man said, “It’s not safe outside.”
“Alright, open the door.” As soon as Uncle Zhu finished speaking, the woman got off the carriage and walked over with Ye Qiu and the others.
At this time, the little old man opened the door.
Everyone looked into the City Lord’s Mansion and saw that there were black coffins parked in the courtyard, at least a hundred of them.
Everyone’s expressions changed.
“Why are there so many dead people?”
Uncle Zhu took a deep breath.
“All the adults, please come in quickly. It’s not safe outside.” The little old man said anxiously.
Everyone walked into the courtyard.
The little old man quickly closed the door.
“Old man, what should we call you?” The woman asked softly.
The little old man replied, “My name is Yao Guangshun.”
“What is your position in the City Lord’s Mansion?” The woman asked again.
The little old man said, “Butler.”
“Then I’ll call you Butler Yao!” The woman pointed to the coffin and asked, “Butler Yao, I wonder who are the people in the coffin?”
Butler Yao said sadly, “They are the City Lord’s family members and some guards of the City Lord’s Mansion.”
The woman then asked, “How did they die?”
When it came to this matter, there was horror on Butler Yao’s face, and his lips trembled as he said, “They were killed by the Blood Demon.”
“Blood Demon?” The woman lookedfeel uncertain: “What is a Blood Demon?”
Housekeeper Yao said, “Miss, you don’t know that half a month ago, a blood demon suddenly appeared in our Feilai City.”
He made trouble in the city, eating babies when he saw them, biting people’s necks to suck blood when he saw them. As many as thousands of common people were killed by him. Everyone in Feilai City was in danger and dare not go out.”
After learning about the situation, the city lord led the guards to chase the blood demon. But that blood demon was too powerful. The city lord not only failed to catch him, but also lost a lot of guards.”
Later, the city lord investigates and learns that the blood demon was hiding in Dongshan.
So, the city lord ordered to close the city gate and not allow anyone to enter or leave. And summoned people to lay a tight net in Dongshan, wanting to catch the blood demon in one fell swoop. But that blood demon was really too cunning. He not only broke through the siege, but also killed many people. The city lord was also wounded and suffered heavy losses.
Who knew that in the middle of the night the night before yesterday, the blood demon suddenly rushed into the city lord’s mansion. One hundred and twenty-one people in the mansion, except me, all died.”
When Housekeeper Yao said this, his body trembled, obviously being greatly frightened by the blood demon.”
The blood demon is too cruel. He didn’t even spare the city lord’s newly born young son. He ate him bite by bite right in front of the city lord.”
And the madam was also torn into pieces by the blood demon.”
The city lord fought a great battle with the blood demon and was beaten to pieces.”
Plop!”
When Steward Yao said this, he suddenly knelt on the ground and said tearfully, “Sir, please kill the blood demon and avenge the city lord.”
The woman stepped forward and helped up the little old man, saying, “Steward Yao, get up quickly. Since we have encountered this matter, we will not sit idly by.”
”Thank you, miss.” Steward Yao said gratefully while wiping away his tears.
”However, we don’t know much about the situation of the blood demon. There are some things we need to ask you.” The woman asked, “Do you know the origin of the blood demon?”
Steward Yao shook his head and said, “My cultivation base is weak, and I’m just a steward. I don’t know the origin of the blood demon.”
”However, the city lord guessed that the blood demon is most likely from the demon race, because if it were a human, it would never be so cruel.”
As soon as Niu Dali heard this, he became angry on the spot.
”Nonsense, it can’t be the demon race!”
