For City Lord Ye, Ji Tianxing was the person he worshipped the most.
This prodigy prince had too much glory and halo on him. He was simply a legendary figure who could only be heard of but rarely seen in person.
Ji Tianxing's sudden visit to Yuejian City made him feel flattered and inexplicably excited.
"City Lord Ye, you don't have to be so polite. I came to Yuejian City this time only to visit my fiancée and help her solve her problems."
Ji Tianxing nodded slightly and said calmly, "I see that the situation in Yuejian City is tense. Why don't we get down to business first?"
His confidence, elegance, and calmness made City Lord Ye admire him even more.
City Lord Ye hurriedly made a "please" gesture and said respectfully, "Young Master Ji, please take a seat. Please allow me to slowly report to you."
Ji Tianxing nodded and sat down with Yun Yao, listening to City Lord Ye's report.
"In the past month, the demonic parasite chaos in the city has become more and more intense. Twenty-six young talents have successively been infected by the demonic parasites.
After being infected, they became bloodthirsty and cruel demonic parasite puppets and went on a killing spree in the city.
Fourteen Grand Clans were destroyed, and some of them were even completely wiped out.
After the news spread, it caused great panic in the city.
The City Lord Manor did their best to investigate and caught more than a dozen puppets infected with demonic parasites. After forcibly extracting the parasites, those people died one after another.
After Miss Yun Yao came to take charge of the situation, she caught seven more puppets in a row and dealt with all of them.
Moreover, Miss Yun Yao ordered the entire city to be under martial law, making it difficult for the demons to sneak into the city to sow demonic parasites.
Not only that, Miss Yun Yao also sent out a large number of experts to investigate suspicious people in the city.
So far, there are more than a hundred suspicious people locked up in the City Lord Manor's prison.
Miss Yun Yao's series of measures were very effective. As expected, the situation in the city has stabilized a lot. There are no new demonic parasite puppets appearing … "
City Lord Ye gave a general overview of the city's situation. His words were full of admiration and respect for Yun Yao.
Obviously, Yun Yao's actions in this half a month of time in Yuejian City had long since subdued him, causing him to submit willingly.
After hearing this, Ji Tianxing frowned doubtfully and asked, "City Lord Ye, if the situation is really like this, the crisis in Yuejian City has been mostly eliminated. The situation should be stabilized, right?"
"This, uh …" City Lord Ye hesitated for a moment, looking hesitant.
Yun Yao explained to Ji Tianxing, "Tianxing, there's something you don't know. Not only hasn't the city's situation has not improved, but it's worse.
The City Lord's Mansion and I have eliminated twenty-four Demonic Venomous Puppets, but these Demonic Venomous Puppets were discovered early and were relatively weak, so it was not difficult to deal with them.
However, there are still two … or three fish that escaped the net that we haven't found yet. They are still roaming around outside causing trouble. "
Hearing this, Ji Tianxing raised his eyebrows and asked, "Two or three? What do you mean? "
Yun Yao hurriedly explained, "There's a person whose situation is a little special, and I can't determine it for the time being.
This person was Cao Jingfeng, the eldest son of the Cao family in the Eastern City and one of the three martial arts geniuses in Yuejian City.
A month ago, the entire Cao Clan was massacred overnight. All eighty-four people were killed and turned into white bones.
Everyone thought that the Cao Family had been killed by the Demonic Venomous Puppets. They sighed and were shocked.
However, after I checked the records of the City Lord's Mansion, I found out that the Cao Family originally had 85 people. "
Upon hearing this, Ji Tianxing vaguely understood something and said in a deep voice, "The Cao Family has 85 people, but there are only 84 corpses here. Therefore, one of them is still alive.
That person didn't survive. Perhaps he's the puppet that was poisoned by the Demonic Gu, Cao Jingfeng? "
"Yes." Yun Yao nodded and continued, "After that, I found it strange, so I used the Soul Imprinting Lamp and the secret technique to identify those skeletons.
After some investigation, I realized that the missing person was Cao Jingfeng.
I suspect that he was poisoned by the Demonic Gu and killed everyone in the Cao Family after he went crazy. However, I still couldn't find him. "
Ji Tianxing nodded and silently noted this down. "Yao Yao, continue."
Yun Yao continued, "Other than Cao Jingfeng, the other two escaped and became Demonic Gu Puppets for a long time.
After they killed countless people, their strength has increased by several times.
I once led the guards of the City Lord's Mansion to capture a Demonic Gu Puppet. However, he escaped after killing a large number of guards.
Moreover, even I was no match for him. "
Upon hearing this, Ji Tianxing's expression became more serious. He frowned slightly and said, "After the Demonic Gu Puppet devours flesh and souls, its strength will continue to increase. It can even split and reproduce.
If the two Demonic Gu Puppets kill more people, their strength will only increase. It's very likely that they can create more Demonic Gu Puppets. "
Yun Yao nodded and said in a serious tone, "That's right, that's right! I suspect that the number of Demonic Gu Puppets roaming outside is still increasing.
We must get rid of the two Demonic Gu Puppets as soon as possible. We can't let them continue to grow stronger or they will only harm more people.
Now, the city is heavily guarded and patrolled. The situation is still considered stable.
However, there are many villages outside the city. The City Lord's Mansion's military strength is unable to protect them. The situation is very dangerous.
Just two nights ago, thousands of people in Wild South Village were killed overnight. Even the chickens, ducks, and livestock were all killed.
Last night, the two villages a hundred miles away from Wild South Village were also killed overnight. They were also burned to ashes by fire.
I suspect that these two tragedies are related to the three Demonic Gu Puppets roaming around.
However, I can't do anything about it now. I don't know how to capture the three Demonic Gu Puppets. "
Ji Tianxing nodded and said in a serious tone, "The three Demonic Gu Puppets are hiding outside the city. It's really difficult to find them.
According to what you said, the three Demonic Gu Puppets are not only very strong, but they also have evolved to a certain extent.
They know how to hide during the day and attack at night. This is very difficult to deal with.
Since it's difficult for the City Lord's Mansion's military strength to protect all the villages, then send experts and soldiers to escort the people to the city in batches.
No matter how strong the three Demonic Gu Puppets are, they won't dare to attack the army openly.
We must first ensure the safety of the city and let the people have a place to live. Then, we will think of ways to search for them. "
After hearing this, Yun Yao thought for a moment and explained, "Tianxing, I have thought of this method before.
However, there are twelve towns and hundreds of villages under Yue Jian City's jurisdiction. It's almost impossible to transfer all the people to the city!
Moreover, all the people add up to nearly two hundred thousand people. The City Lord's Mansion can't settle them at all. "
Ji Tianxing was silent for a moment, then said, "Since we can't transfer all of them, then transfer the people from the villages to the towns first. Send as many soldiers as possible to guard the towns.
If we really can't station soldiers in the towns and villages, then transfer the people to the city. "
"Yes, that's the only way." Yun Yao nodded in agreement and immediately gave the order to City Lord Ye.
City Lord Ye didn't dare to be negligent. After receiving the order, he immediately left the guest hall and went to carry out the order.
After he left, only Ji Tianxing and Yun Yao were left in the hall.
After discussing official matters, the two started to talk about private matters.
Yun Yao looked at Ji Tianxing and asked with concern, "Tianxing, how is Uncle's situation? Did you find that treasure? "
Ji Tianxing nodded and revealed a smile, "I have already obtained the Heaven Mending Pearl. Master used the Heaven Mending Pearl to heal my father's injuries.
