Shen Huaiyan looked at Wen Yuan thoughtfully and told her everything he knew.
"This forbidden technique is very cruel, not only because it requires people's resentment, but also because such powerful resentment will eventually turn people into monsters."
The man took out the ancient book he had tried his best to find from his personal space, "It records the fate of those who practice this forbidden technique. Without exception, they all died by their own hands."
"Your ancestors once encountered someone who practiced this forbidden technique. They killed that person in time and recorded some unknown secrets about this forbidden technique. This forbidden technique was called the heart-grabbing technique by your ancestors. It robs people of all the beauty in their souls, leaving only hatred for this world.”
Wen Yuan looked at the scroll left by his ancestors, and the people who practiced this forbidden technique were painted in a scary way.
"What will they become in the end after practicing?" Wen Yuan stroked the scroll, and something on it stung her.
At this time, the man took out another scroll. He pointed at a black mist-like thing on it and said to Wen Yuan: "This is what it looks like after you have mastered the forbidden art. Wherever you go, it will turn into ashes. But after practicing this People who practice forbidden arts will eventually drown themselves in the sea, and their strong resentment will make them hate this world, and they will eventually be freed by death."
"If that's the case, is it okay to just leave it alone? You'll all die in the end anyway."
"If that's the case, then your ancestors wouldn't have had to work so hard. Before they died, they would have destroyed all the living people or animals in the world, and the flowers would have withered and the earth would be lifeless."
If that's the case, then Wen Yuan doesn't understand, "Then why would the city lord choose to practice such a forbidden technique? It won't help him at all. Isn't practicing this just asking for death?"
As soon as Wen Yuan finished speaking, Shen Huaiyan took out another scroll from his pocket, "This is... a fake heart-grabbing scroll. Perhaps those who chose to practice forbidden arts got this scroll." Scroll."
After Wen Yuan opened the scroll, it described the forbidden spell as a spell that could make people immortal, invulnerable to injury, and said, "Oh, no wonder."
She looked at the scroll in her hand, "Then where did you get this?"
I saw the man put away the scrolls mysteriously, "Of course I stole them from the city lord, but he doesn't need this now."
Listening to the man's description of the forbidden technique, Wen Yuan just wanted to stop the city lord as soon as possible. There was nothing to be afraid of as he was a bastard in this city, but he just didn't know if there was any powerful character hiding in the dark.
After Wen Yuan told the others the news he got from Shen Huaiyan today, they also had questions in their minds, "But wouldn't it be faster if you choose people? People can't always control their emotions, and they are everywhere."
Xue Rui's words were recognized by others, but Wen Yuan felt that the city lord was quite smart. She expressed her opinion on this, "Because he knows that the demon clan has strict laws. If he does it on such a large scale, If you harm humans, you will not only offend the demon hunters of the human race, but you will also be unable to survive in the demon race."
"On the other hand, the demon clan often devours its own kind in order to compete for territory or snatch each other's treasures, so he chooses to torture the demon clan as a human being, so that he can not only be loved in the human society, but also be a good person. He must have seriously considered avoiding risks, otherwise the things in Yandu City would not have been concealed so well. If Jue and I hadn't passed by here on our way back to the Giant Wolf Tribe's territory, I wouldn't have known that the demon tribe in Yandu City would have been living like this. How long will it take?”
What to do now... kill him directly? If such a respected character in the world disappeared, it would probably be a big shock.
But now that we know why he does what he does, everything is much simpler.
"Perhaps the news in Yandu City is too limited, otherwise...how could the city lord not know about me? I never hid my true identity when I entered Yandu City."
Regarding this point, Shen Huaiyan also had his own thoughts, "Maybe it was because it had been so smooth, so smooth that he forgot that he was not that powerful, and you hid your demonic aura, so he didn't doubt it. .”
If this is the case, it only shows that this person is stupid and arrogant.
"I didn't detect any powerful aura in this city, so he should be just using these poor fellows to practice forbidden arts by himself."
Several people heard footsteps coming from outside and left quickly. Wen Yuan stayed in the room alone, and Lian Mei and the city owner opened the door and came in.
"Sister, we would like to invite you to watch the Spring Festival tomorrow. What do you think?" Lianmei was the first person in the family to call Wen Yuan her sister.
Spring Jue, this was the first time Wen Yuan heard such a term after coming to Yandu City, it was nothing more than the execution of those guilty monsters.
She looked into the eyes of the city lord and saw the bottomless darkness, "City lord, aren't you afraid that the demon king will know about this? If the demon king knows that you are treating the demon like this, what will the demon king do?"
"Oh, the Demon King won't know." The man sat next to Wen Yuan confidently and said, "As long as anyone leaves Yandu City, their memory will be erased, and if it is a demon who leaves..."
The man's arrogant smile made Wen Yuan feel sick, "The demon can't leave at all, so who can know the secret of Yandu City?"
He had some doubts about why Wen Yuan suddenly mentioned the Demon King. The man held Wen Yuan's hand and comforted him, "Madam, why don't we just live happily in this city? The monsters themselves deserve to die. They slaughter humans cruelly. Even Reimei’s and I’s relatives died at the hands of humans.”
Wen Yuan was silent, and the city lord thought he had convinced her.
Waiting until the next day for the annual spring showdown, Wen Yuan stood on the high platform and looked at his fellow tribesmen who were about to be executed, feeling sad in his heart.
The man was on the side inciting the ignorant people, while Reimei looked down expectantly.
"These are our kind, but you seem to be looking forward to their execution." Wen Yuan said this deliberately.
At this moment, Reimei realized that her expression was revealing, and she quickly adjusted, "If not, the city lord will be suspicious if he sees it later."
Wen Yuan turned his head and stopped looking at her. After a while, after the city lord finished speaking, the sound of Spring Jue sounded.
The sound of the trumpet was like a soul song announcing their death. The figures below were more excited than the other, and they all shouted loudly to start faster.
Just after the city lord announced that the Spring Showdown had begun, sand and rocks flew all of a sudden, dark clouds filled the sky, and the people below began to panic, "What's going on?" The city lord was very calm.
"Perhaps I was right and the Demon King knew about this."
Not many people in the demon clan call the commander-in-chief the demon king. Everyone is used to calling the commander-in-chief the demon king. They only call him occasionally. Only the human race likes to call him the demon king.
So Wen Yuan called him a demon king just to make the city lord believe that he was an ordinary person.
The man looked a little scared, "How is this possible? It's impossible for anyone to know!"
But there was nothing strange except for a few more dark clouds in the sky. After a while, the city lord finally breathed a sigh of relief, "It looks like it's just an ordinary dark cloud, don't panic."
He comforted everyone in the city, completely unaware that danger was coming.
Just when the city lord was about to order the execution of those guilty monsters, lightning and thunder broke out, and everyone saw a familiar figure in the thunder.
"Oh... there is a person in the sky." Wen Yuan pointed to the sky in the distance and said calmly.
The city lord and Reimei looked in the direction she pointed at the same time, and saw a vague figure floating in the mid-air there.
The black shadow was getting closer and closer, but just when it was about to reach them, it suddenly disappeared. What followed was severe pain in the city lord's heart, and he had to temporarily stop the Spring Battle.
When he returned to the bedroom, his heart no longer hurt, but the near-death feeling just now made the man very afraid that something like this would happen again.
Everything that happened today was too strange. If it wasn't someone who was causing trouble, it was...
He hurried to the dungeon to see if Shen Huaiyan was still inside. Sure enough, the man had run away long ago, and all the guards responsible for guarding the dungeon were killed.
"Sure enough, it was Shen Huaiyan who caused the trouble." The man was convinced of this.
When he returned to his room, he found an unknown person sitting inside waiting for him.
The visitor was Xuan Yuan. Unlike Quan, he rarely showed up in front of others. After Yun Zhongmiao passed away, he also slept in his cave. If Wen Yuan hadn't appeared, he might never have been able to leave that place again in his life. Cave, so the city lord didn't recognize him.
"Who are you? How dare you break into the city lord's mansion without permission."
These words didn't hurt Xuan Yuan. He stood up and walked to the man. After looking him up and down, he said: "The commander-in-chief already knows what you have done. If you don't stop, you will face What will happen is the judgment of the entire Ten Thousand Demonic Abyss. At that time, all demon clans will know what you have done, and your descendants or people related to you will be buried with you."
However, the city lord did not believe what Xuan Yuan said. The man was about to take action without saying a word. He was slapped by Xuan Yuan and rolled to the bedside. "Since you are also a demon clan, you should know how you will be punished for hurting your fellow clan in this way." , if you find your way back, maybe the commander-in-chief will spare your life, but if you still insist on it...then you will only die in the end."
The man was frightened by Xuan Yuan's words. He stood up from the ground with difficulty, "You don't understand. I am also doing this for the demon clan. As long as I cultivate the secret technique that reaches the sky, I can make the demon clan become the world's best." The most powerful existence!"
Xuan Yuan looked at him without speaking for a long time, actually thinking whether he should kill the man directly.
