Steward Yao replied： “Dongshan is in the east of Feilai City, twenty miles away from the City Lord’s Mansion.”
“Many years ago, a bell flew here from nowhere and landed on Dongshan Mountain. Since then, this city has been named Feilai City.”
“At that time, the city lord specifically built a sacrificial hall on the halfway up Dongshan Mountain and hung that bell in the middle of the hall with an iron chain. Later, every time a new city lord took office, he would go to Dongshan Mountain to offer sacrifices.”
Ye Qiu asked, “Is that bell still on Dongshan Mountain？”
“Yes.” Housekeeper Yao said, “At the beginning of this year, I went to burn incense on Dongshan Mountain with the city lord.”
“Then let’s go directly to Dongshan Mountain！” Ye Qiu said to the woman.
Housekeeper Yao said, “Dear adults, that blood demon is very cunning. When catching him, you must be more careful.”
“Thank you for the reminder.” Ye Qiu asked again, “What does the blood demon look like？”
Uncle Zhu thought for a while and said, “He is very tall and his whole body is like blood… I didn’t see clearly. Anyway, he is a monster.”
The woman suddenly asked, “Housekeeper Yao, when the blood demon ran into the city lord’s mansion and killed so many people, how did you survive？”
An embarrassed expression appeared on Housekeeper Yao’s face and he said, “To tell you the truth, when the blood demon rushed into the city lord’s mansion, I was in the toilet. In order to avoid the blood demon, I hid in the cesspit.”
“At that time, I was also scared out of my wits. I watched one by one being killed, but I didn’t dare to move.”
“Unexpectedly, in the blink of an eye, the originally lively city lord’s mansion was left with only an old man like me.”
Housekeeper Yao said up to this point, with tears streaming down his old face.
“You being able to survive is already a blessing in misfortune.” Ye Qiu suddenly thought of something and asked, “By the way, what cultivation level is the city lord？”
“Divine Penetration Peak, one foot has already stepped into the threshold of a sage.” It was not Housekeeper Yao who answered Ye Qiu, but the woman.
Ye Qiu looked at the woman in surprise and asked, “How do you know？”
The woman said, “Last year when I passed by Feilai City, the city lord gave me a ride.”
Hearing this, Housekeeper Yao seemed to remember something and looked at the woman in shock, saying, “Could it be that you are…”
Before he could finish speaking, he was severely glared at by the woman, and Housekeeper Yao quickly closed his mouth.
“Uncle Zhu, let’s go to Dongshan.” The woman said.
“Yes.” Uncle Zhu hurriedly accepted the order.
The group walked out of the city lord’s mansion. Ye Qiu thought for a while and said, “Miss Rou’er, how about you and Uncle Zhu and the others still stay here? Leave the matter of catching the blood demon to us.”
The woman said, “This matter happened in the territory of the Great Zhou. As a person of the Great Zhou, I should naturally contribute.”
The Long-browed True Person also tried to persuade, “Miss Rou’er, you don’t have any cultivation level. I think you’d better not go！”
Between the lines, it was almost telling the woman that without cultivation, don’t go and cause trouble.
Uncle Zhu also tried to persuade, “Miss, how about you stay here？”
“I must go with you. I must see what a blood demon is like？” The woman then said, “Don’t worry, I won’t hold you back.”
“But…” The Long-browed True Man still wanted to persuade, but was interrupted by Ye Qiu.
“Then let’s go together.” Ye Qiu said.
“All right, little brat, you are responsible for the safety of Miss Rou’er.” After the Long-browed True Man finished speaking, he tapped his toe and his figure disappeared instantly.
“What a fast speed！” Uncle Zhu had a shocked expression on his face.
He was originally a master at the peak of the Tong Shen realm. He found that the speed of the Long-browed True Man was much faster than his.
“You come with me.” Uncle Zhu grabbed the shoulders of two bodyguards with both hands and flew out.
“Miss Rou’er, I’ll take you.” After Ye Qiu finished speaking, he grabbed the woman’s hand.
Immediately, he felt a kind of soft and boneless smoothness.
The woman’s pretty face turned slightly red. Just as she was about to refuse, Ye Qiu had already held her hand and rose into the air.
The woman turned her head and looked at Ye Qiu’s side face. In her heart, there were only two words, so handsome！
Niu Dali followed closely behind.
In less than five seconds, Ye Qiu had already landed.
“Here we are.” Ye Qiu said.
“So fast？” The woman thought, the speed was too fast.
Turning her head, she saw that the Long-browed True Man was standing beside them.
As soon as they landed, Niu Dali also arrived. They waited for a while at the original place, and then Uncle Zhu and the two bodyguards arrived.
The Long-browed True Man pointed ahead and said, “Little brat, that mountain should be Dongshan.”
Ye Qiu looked up and saw that the peaks in front were undulating and endless.
Among them, there was a peak that was completely different from the surrounding mountains. It was proud and steep, as if it was independent from the world.
Moreover, the mountain body presents a deep black color as if it was eroded by hundreds of millions of years of wind and rain.
The mountain rocks were hard and smooth, like natural stone mirrors, reflecting the changes of the sky.
Under the sunlight, the mountain rocks sparkle with a cold light, giving people a mysterious and cold feeling.
On the top of the peak, there was a cloud lingering.
Those ethereal clouds swirl in the mountains, gathering and dispersing from time to time as if they were the dances of immortals or ancient spells, telling the mystery and antiquity of Dongshan.
There were many plants growing on the peak.
These plants had different shapes. Some had lush branches and leaves and were full of green, while others had gorgeous flowers and were colorful.
At first glance, it was full of vitality and completely did not look like the hiding place of the blood demon.
”Let’s go and have a look at the sacrificial hall first.”
After Ye Qiu finished speaking, he pulled the woman and flew into the air.
The Long-browed True Man and Niu Dali also followed closely behind. When Uncle Zhu reacted, they had long disappeared.
Uncle Zhu immediately took two bodyguards to chase after Ye Qiu and the others.
“Let’s go！”
The sacrificial hall is located on a wide square, solemn and awe-inspiring, making people daunting.
The main structure of the hall is made of huge stone blocks, looking solid and heavy, giving people a feeling of stability and eternity.
The gatehouse of the hall is tall and magnificent, and the lintel is carved with complex patterns, depicting mysterious totems and mythical stories.
The door leaves are made of thick wooden materials, inlaid with copper nails on them, giving people a feeling of heaviness and solemnity.
The roof of the hall is paved with blue tiles, slightly protruding forward in an arc shape, making the entire hall appear more imposing.
“Go in and take a look！”
Ye Qiu and his party walked into the sacrificial hall.
I saw that the space inside the hall was very spacious, and the light shone in through the skylight on the roof, making the entire hall look bright and sacred.
The walls inside the hall are carved with various patterns and mythical stories, making the entire hall full of a mysterious and solemn atmosphere.
In the center of the hall, there is a huge statue of a god. The face of the statue is solemn and mysterious. making people feel in awe.
In front of the statue, there is a sacrificial table, and various sacrificial supplies such as incense burners and candlesticks are placed on the table.
Ye Qiu looked up and saw that in the middle of the roof, there was an empty iron chain hanging, and as for the bell, it had long since disappeared without a trace.
”Where is that bell？”
As soon as Ye Qiu said this, immediately, everyone’s eyes all looked towards the roof of the main hall, and they were instantly dumbfounded.
