"Sir, three more people died last night!"
"They were all eaten away by demons until only their hair was left!"
The butler said with a serious expression.
"Three more died..."
Chu Zhan bit his lips tightly, his face getting increasingly ugly.
When other people in the main hall heard the news, their faces showed fear.
They don't know if some of them will die tonight!
"Master, didn't you write a letter to Feng'er?"
"Did Feng'er reply?"
Just when there was deathly silence in the hall.
A beautiful middle-aged woman sitting on the lower left side of Chu Zhan asked.
This middle-aged beautiful woman's name is Tang Yu, she is Chu Zhan's wife and Chu Feng's mother.
Other officials had three wives and four concubines, but Chu Zhan had only one head wife and no concubines.
Because this Tang Yu had an extraordinary background, she was the daughter of the ninth prince of the Tang Dynasty. Although she was a concubine and was not taken seriously, she was still the princess. Therefore, Chu Zhan did not dare to have the idea of marrying another woman.
"Feng'er hasn't replied yet."
"Now that demons are causing trouble in the world, I guess Feng'er went to slay demons elsewhere and didn't see the letter!"
Chu Zhan shook his head and sighed.
In the past, as long as he sent a letter to Chu Feng, Chu Feng would reply to them within five days.
Now seven days have passed and Chu Zhan has not received a reply from Chu Feng, which means that Chu Feng has not seen the letter at all.
This was actually Chu Feng's negligence.
After receiving the letter, he went back to the Demon Locking Tower to pack his things without even thinking about replying.
"Master, Feng'er's road is dead. Does the city lord have any extra manpower?"
Tang Yu asked again.
"The demon invasion on the city lord's side is even more serious. As far as I know, thirteen people died in the city lord's mansion last night, including the city lord who also had one arm cut off by a demon!"
Chu Zhan said with a bitter smile.
"What?"
"The city lord had his arm cut off by a demon?"
Tang Yu and others in the hall were shocked.
You know, the Lord of Qingcheng is in the middle stage of Jindan. He can cut off one of his arms. How powerful is the demon?
In their eyes, the Lord of Qingcheng in the middle stage of the Golden Elixir is a top master and the patron saint of Qingcheng. Now that even the patron saint has had an arm cut off by a demon, they feel like the sky has fallen in half!
"Master, you and the city lord have been asking the governor of Dongjun for help for a while. Why hasn't the governor sent someone?"
Tang Yu frowned.
"Madam, Qingcheng is just a small town in Dongjun!"
"It is impossible for the county governor to send monks here to protect the survival of a small town. He will ask the monks to defend against demons in other important counties and cities!"
Chu Zhan said with a helpless smile.
Among Dongjun, there are more than a dozen counties and cities, and Qingcheng is almost at the bottom.
In the eyes of the county governor, the life and death of this county city is meaningless, so naturally he will not send people to resist the demon.
Of course, the reason for not sending anyone here is not only because Qingcheng is a small town, it is not important, but also because Tang Yu is just the concubine of the Ninth Prince.
If Tang Yu is the legitimate daughter of the Ninth Prince, then the governor of Dongjun will send someone to take Tang Yu's family to the governor's mansion no matter what!
As soon as these words came out, the surroundings suddenly fell into silence, and the atmosphere became more solemn.
Da da da.
At this moment, a burst of footsteps sounded.
Suddenly a person appeared in the main hall.
This person is not Chu Feng, but Hua Ting from the Flower Demon Clan!
"Huh?"
"Who are you? Why did you break into the deputy city lord's mansion without notification?!"
The housekeeper thought it was a servant from the palace who came, but unexpectedly a stranger came and immediately yelled loudly.
"Come quickly, take her down here!"
The housekeeper ordered outside the hall.
pity.
After a while, no one answered outside the hall.
"Um?"
"What's going on with these servants? Are you giving orders?"
The butler frowned.
"Are you looking for them?"
Hua Ting smiled slightly, shook her hand, and two bloody human heads were thrown into the palace!
"ah?"
The woman in the hall heard screams of terror.
"This is Ah Fu and Ah Cai's head!"
The housekeeper was shocked when he saw the two heads.
You know, in this mansion, Ah Fu and Ah Cai are the two most skilled people besides Chu Zhan and Chu Linglong!
"Who are you?"
"Why do you want to kill the people in my mansion?"
Chu Zhan stood up, slapped his hand on the table, and glared at Hua Ting.
If he hadn't been unable to see through Hua Ting's cultivation, Chu Zhan would have killed Hua Ting with his sword.
"I kill people, I don't need a reason!"
"Okay, no more nonsense, I'm here to find her!"
Hua Ting suddenly looked at a cute little girl in the hall.
This little girl is Chu Zhan’s youngest daughter, Chu Linglong!
Chu Linglong was a little shy. When she saw Hua Ting suddenly looking at her, a look of fear suddenly appeared on her face and she shrank back.
"exquisite?"
"Why are you looking for Linglong?"
Chu Zhan came to Chu Linglong, protected Chu Linglong behind him, and stared at Hua Ting with a wary face.
"She is useful to us!"
"Get out of my way!"
Hua Ting had a ferocious look on her face.
Her body trembled, and a powerful aura burst out from her body.
The next moment, her arm turned into a vine covered with barbs!
"ah!"
"demon!"
When the people in the hall saw this strange scene, their expressions changed drastically!
"demon?"
When Chu Zhan saw this scene, his face darkened.
In the past, demons would attack in the middle of the night, but today they come openly and openly, and the demon in front of them is quite powerful, at least it has reached the Golden Elixir Perfection!
The demon with the perfect golden elixir is even more powerful than the Lord of Qingcheng!
My strength is only at the late stage of foundation building, how can I stop this golden elixir perfect demon in front of me?
now.
Chu Zhan was desperate in his heart, and Chu Linglong behind him also had a look of death on his face.
But at this moment, a sudden change occurred.
A sword light flew from outside the hall!
Just hear a click.
Hua Ting's arm that turned into a vine was suddenly cut off, and green blood flowed all over the floor!
"who?"
"who is it?"
"Get out of here!"
Hua Ting endured the excruciating pain of her broken arm and shouted outside the hall.
Quiet.
No one answered!
"good!"
"very good!"
"Since you don't come out, I'll come find you!"
Hua Ting's face was as gloomy as water, and she rushed out of the hall in a flash.
After Hua Ting left, everyone in the main hall breathed a sigh of relief.
"Dad, who did you say took action just now?"
Chu Linglong looked at Chu Zhan curiously.
"I don't know, he should be an expert!"
Chu Zhan was also confused.
But at this moment, a name suddenly flashed in his mind.
Chu Feng!
certainly.
Because he did not receive a reply from Chu Feng, Chu Zhan was not sure who took action.
…
And the other side.
After Hua Ting came out of the main hall, she walked all the way outside.
After a while, she saw a person at the end of the corridor. The person had a purple-gold gourd hanging on his waist and a sword in his hand!
"Did you do it just now?"
Hua Ting stared at the person in front of her with cold eyes.
