"Thanks to the help from the head of the Cheng family." After hearing Lin Yan's experience along the way, Lin Tiannan sighed and said: "Since we parted ways in Xianxian Gorge, the three of us stayed in Tianmenguan City for two days to treat Xinyao's niece's arrow wounds. After hearing the news from the people of the Martial Arts Alliance that the flower-picking thief in the southwest was captured, and his name was exactly the same as Yan'er, he became suspicious and wanted to follow the news to find out Yan'er's whereabouts. Unexpectedly, five days ago, we were thinking about After catching up with the escorting convoy, I discovered something strange in Yong'an City."
"Yong'an City? That's the city where the Shangguan family is located." Cheng Linong said in surprise, "What strange thing did you discover?"
The Shangguan Family is a large martial arts family in Yong'an City. The head of the family, Shangguan Le, is a veteran top master. Although he is not as good as Lin Tiannan and Cheng Linong, he is not weak at all and has a great influence in Yong'an City. .
Lin Tiannan said in a deep voice: "Several small martial arts families in Yong'an City were secretly exterminated, which caused an uproar in the local area. Many people from the Shangguan family were originally going to participate in the sword trial meeting, but they discovered something about the murderer. There were clues, and I was afraid that the murderer would run away if I were to trace him again a few days later, so I sent Shangguan Hao and Shangguan Xuan to participate in this sword test meeting, and all the top masters in the family dispersed to look for traces of the murderer."
"With so many massacres, this murderer is so heartless." Cheng Linong frowned and said, "How dare Shangguan Le have such courage."
The Sword Trial Conference has great appeal to all young warriors in the martial arts world. As far as he knows, there are many people from the Shangguan family who are under the age of twenty-five and are qualified to participate in this Sword Trial Conference. Shangguan Le alone He has five children, the strongest of whom are Shangguan Hao and Shangguan Xuan. They were once among the top ten in the youth rankings and are now well-known top young masters in the world.
Now, except for Shangguan Hao and Shangguan Xuan, who are most likely to pass the sword test competition, everyone in the Shangguan family has devoted themselves to tracking down the murderer. This courage is extremely extraordinary.
"The head of the Shangguan family is admirable." Lin Tiannan frowned and said, "But this matter is by no means that simple. They tracked it for several days and then locked the location of the murderer. The three of us happened to pass by Yong'an City and came to visit, so we said Help them, so Brother He and I participated together. We arrived at the place where the murderer was hiding, and laid out a dragnet according to the layout, and then forced the murderer out, which shocked us. The head of the Cheng family might as well guess who the murderer is. ?”
Cheng Linong frowned and said: "In the world, there are extremely few people who can be treated like this by the Shangguan family and have such abilities. Since Brother Lin said so, his identity must be beyond ordinary people's expectations."
Lin Tiannan nodded and said: "There is more than one murderer, there are three, and each one has the same characteristics."
"Black robe, bloody eyes."
Cheng Linong's eyes suddenly changed, and he asked in surprise: "Is it the Blood Demon?"
"Perhaps," Lin Tiannan said, "But there are three of them, and each of them is the most familiar face to the warriors in Yong'an City."
"Li Tairan, the eldest son of Li in Yong'an City, Song Fushan, the head of the Song family, and Xie Guangyi, the heir to the head of the Xie family."
Astonishingly, they were the three major families that were wiped out in Yong'an City.
"In other words, the Li family, the Song family, and the Xie family were all destroyed by their own people?" Cheng Linong said solemnly, "Moreover, these three people are all dressed up like the rumored blood demon?"
Cheng Linong told the relevant points, which also shocked everyone present, except Lin Tiannan and the other three.
Blood Demon, this name is very familiar to Lin Yan. He heard the name of Blood Demon this afternoon and killed the people of the Ouyang family who came to participate in the sword trial meeting.
"The time doesn't match up." Lin Yan said solemnly, "The Blood Demon destroyed the Ouyang family yesterday."
Lin Tiannan also just arrived at the foot of Changshan Mountain today, and rushed here non-stop. In other words, Lin Tiannan used the most extreme time to get to Yong'an City, which was short enough.
If the blood demon appeared in Yong'an City, no matter how fast it was, it would not be possible to reach the foot of Changshan Mountain one day in advance and kill the Ouyang family members in less time than Lin Tiannan and the others.
Recalling that just now Lin Tiannan said that Yong'an City had killed three blood demons from the three major families, three of them, and they were all the masters that Yong'an City's warriors were most familiar with, then it is not difficult to draw a conclusion.
There is more than one blood demon, or even more than four.
The Blood Demon is a very strange existence in the world. He has committed many crimes and has committed many murders. Almost every one of them was a family-killing tragedy. But the strange thing is that the Blood Demon has never been seen by anyone. At most, they are discovered wearing black robes and having blood-red glowing eyes. Moreover, once the eyes of the people in the world are attracted to the murders committed by these blood demons, the blood demons will immediately disappear from the world. No matter how proficient in tracking them, they will disappear. Experts searching for clues could not find any trace of the Blood Demon. Even his true identity and motive for the murder had become a mystery.
"What was the result of Yong'an City's siege against the Blood Demon?" Cheng Linong suddenly asked.
Lin Tiannan shook his head and said: "The Shangguan family lost three top masters and set up a dragnet, but they still escaped. The strength of these people is stronger than the rumors, especially Li Tairan of the Li family, whose martial arts is unfathomable. Even I am no match."
"I have an impression of that boy from the Li family. I have also interacted with Song Fushan and Xie Guangyi. They are both top-notch men in the world. They are very heroic and are very popular in Yong'an City. Why did their temperament suddenly change? , transformed into a blood demon?" Cheng Linong said in a serious voice, "There must be some hidden secret in this."
Lin Tiannan nodded and said: "Originally, by capturing one of the three people, we might be able to reveal the secret of the Blood Demon. Unfortunately, we lacked the ability and allowed them to escape. The investigation can only end here. "
"I'm afraid that may not be the case," Cheng Linong said, and then he briefly explained the fact that the blood demon had killed everyone in the Ouyang family who came to Changshan.
He sent people out to investigate this matter. Everyone knew that the Ouyang family was destroyed, and it was true, but he didn't know whether it was the Blood Demon. Many people who knew about the destruction of the Ouyang family were divided into two factions. One group believed that the Ouyang family provoked a master who should not have been provoked, causing the master to kill everyone in the Ouyang family. The other group believed that it was the blood demon's hand, and even Some people have said that they have seen traces of the Blood Demon, with blood-red eyes glowing, which is very scary, but the credibility is relatively low.
This matter has not yet been determined. After all, it has only been one day. Although people from the government have launched an investigation, it will take some time to investigate and collect evidence or to reason and resolve the case.
The two factions were arguing that the public was right and the mother-in-law was right, and it was hard to tell the winner. They had been arguing all day, and finally they could only stop fighting and wait for new clues and news from the officials.
"If it is really the blood demon, I'm afraid the background of this blood demon is a bit shocking." Lin Tiannan frowned. The blood demon was originally just a legend in the world. Although it was a murderous case when it appeared, it rarely appeared and almost no one noticed the blood demon. There are even rumors in the world that this blood demon is the messenger of justice in the world. Whenever he senses the evil and darkness within the martial arts forces, he will take action, but his methods are more cruel, and he will kill a whole group of people when he takes action. .
But no matter what the rumors are, people in the world believe that the Blood Demon is a person, not a group of people or even a force.
If the person who bloodbathed the Ouyang family is really a blood demon, then everyone has reason to doubt whether this blood demon is a martial arts force, a murderous organization or a martial arts sect.
If it is really an organization or sect, then the strength of this sect is simply terrifying.
The blood demon legends circulating in the world are all about powerful people who can bloodbath a martial arts sect. They are at least comparable to the veteran strong men in the world. Some people even think that the blood demon has the strength of an extreme master. In other words, the blood demons currently circulating The Blood Demon version is at least a top master at the head level.
It is not an exaggeration to say that the force formed by such a group of people is the strongest force in the world.
This background is not only amazing, it is simply ridiculously strong.
"Every time there is a sword trial meeting, there will be some turmoil in the martial arts world. These days are not peaceful. We must be careful." Cheng Linong said solemnly, "If the appearance of the Blood Demon is not a coincidence, it means that someone is taking advantage of the Blood Demon. The legend has caused turmoil in the world, and I'm afraid all of us are involved. Please be careful during this period, and we will have time to investigate it after the Sword Trial Conference is successfully passed."
Everyone nodded.
After a few more instructions, Cheng Linong did not interrupt Lin Tiannan and his son to talk about their relationship. Lin Tiannan and Lin Yan talked alone for a while. About midnight, the watchman passed by on the street beating the gong. Lin Tiannan realized that the night was already so late, so he stopped staying.
Before leaving, Lin Tiannan also asked Lin Yan to take good care of the little girl of the Cheng family.
With his experience in the world, how could he see the thoughts of the little girl Cheng Feishuang? He could also see that in Lin Yan's eyes, Cheng Feishuang was a little different from others.
It's just a pity that the girl from the He family, although she is a few years older than Lin Yan, in Lin Tiannan's opinion, is a good candidate to be the Lin family's wife.
He knew very well that He Xinyao and Lin Yan were not very familiar with each other not long after they met. However, in the battle at Xianxian Gorge, Lin Yan showed great power and defeated countless masters, which had left a very deep mark on He Xinyao's heart. In addition, He desperately tried to hold off so many pursuers, giving He Xinyao enough time to escape to Tianmen Pass to deal with his injuries. All these things made He Xinyao deeply in love.
Lin Yan smiled and nodded.
After sending Lin Tiannan away, Lin Yan returned to the room, adjusted his mentality, and started refining the jade pendant again.
In one night, Lin Yan could only refine three defensive jade pendants. Each time he refined a jade pendant, it took Lin Yan more than half an hour to recover his true energy. In addition, Lin Yan had to keep an eye on the refining of this thing. Due to the huge pressure in his body, after refining three jade pendants, Lin Yan could no longer hold on. He put away the jade pendants and meditated to adjust his breathing.
With his current state of mind, one hour of meditation is equivalent to four hours of sleep.
