"Childe, they're actually demons?"
"Didn't they say that only demons at the Foundation Establishment Realm can transform into humans?"
The four Heavenly Chord Sect disciples were dumbfounded.
"You were actually able to discover our identities …" Hu Yuan was also a little shocked.
In the next moment, a yellow smoke was emitted from the family of three, and they instantly turned into three foxes, two big and one small, and dashed out of the cellar.
Ning Qi chuckled and nailed them to the ground with a wave of his hand. The two Bronze-Armored Corpses slowly walked to the three foxes and caught them.
The four Heavenly Chord Sect disciples could finally confirm that Hu Yuan and his family were indeed demons that could transform into humans. The shock in their hearts was indescribable.
The foxes that Hu Yuan and his family transformed into were caught by the Bronze-Armored Corpses. They knew that they had no hope of escaping today. One of the oldest foxes spoke in the human language, "Ning Qi, don't kill us. Our family of three is willing to become the Sect Guardian Spiritual Beasts for you to command!"
"Tell me, how did you guys transform into humans?"
Ning Qi smiled.
Hu Yuan lowered his head and spoke slowly, "I was originally a demonic beast in the Myriad Demon Mountain Range near Tong Tai Town. One day, I stumbled upon a ruin and found a few Transformation Fruits. That's how I was able to transform in advance."
Transformation Fruits?
Ning Qi's eyes flickered. He felt that this might be the abode of a cultivator! Perhaps he could find some cultivation techniques here! "Do you still have more of the Transformation Fruits you mentioned?"
Ning Qi asked calmly.
"Yes, yes!"
Hu Yuan's eyes lit up. "That ruin was too terrifying, so I didn't dare to enter it. However, there were a few Transformation Fruits at the edge, so I didn't pick them all!"
"Lead the way."
Ning Qi nodded.
"As long as you promise not to kill my family of three, I'll lead the way for you."
Hu Yuan's eyes darted around.
The faces of the four disciples of the Heavenly Chord Sect changed slightly upon hearing this. They had a strong urge to kill Hu Yuan and the others on the spot, but their lives were saved by Ning Qi. Furthermore, Ning Qi's strength was unfathomable. Even the two guards wearing the Black Tortoise Armor gave them a feeling that they were stronger than the Sect Leader of the Heavenly Chord Sect.
"You don't have the right to negotiate with me."
Ning Qi smiled.
Two shrill screams rang out, and everyone saw that the two foxes held in the hands of one of the Bronze-armored Corpses had their necks broken, and they were dead! When Hu Yuan saw this, he immediately let out a mournful howl, "Madam! Daughter! "
Seeing this, the four Heavenly Chord Sect disciples felt relieved! "Lead the way?"
Ning Qi laughed.
Although Hu Yuan was grieving, he was more worried about his own life. Suppressing the anger and pain in his heart, he said in a low voice, "I'll lead the way!"
"Young Master, the vixen is full of tricks. If you enter the Thousand Demon Mountain Range, I'm afraid she will harm you."
The disciples of the Heavenly Music Sect were a little worried.
"It doesn't matter. The devil is ten times as tall as the righteous. In front of him, I'm the devil."
Ning Qi laughed and said, "You escaped from death this time. Don't trust others easily in the future. Everyone in the world has a mask on their face. Who knows if they are human or demon?"
"I will follow Young Master's teachings!"
The four hurriedly bowed, full of admiration. They had completely forgotten that Ning Qi was much younger than them, and they had already treated Ning Qi as a sect elder.
Not long after, Ning Qi personally grabbed Hu Yuan and left Tong Tai Town. The two Bronze-armored Corpses also entered stealth mode without anyone noticing.
Not long after Ning Qi left, a purple figure flew into the Hu family's courtyard and landed in front of the four Heavenly Chord Sect disciples.
"Little Junior Sister!"
When the four saw this, their eyes were filled with excitement.
It was Zhantai Qing Yin, the most talented genius disciple in the current generation of the Heavenly Chord Sect.
Zhantai Qing Yin glanced at the four and frowned slightly. "Senior Brother Chen disappeared with you. Where is he?"
"Senior Brother Chen …" The four looked at each other, their faces filled with grief and indignation. Then, they recounted what happened from beginning to end. Zhantai Qing Yin's expression changed several times.
After a while, Zhantai Qing Yin said with a complicated expression, "I thought you were harmed by scoundrels. I didn't expect it to be a group of demons who consumed the Transformation Fruit. There are still a few auras here. I'm afraid they are the demons' accomplices. I'll get rid of them as well."
"Little Junior Sister, they might not know about this. Let's interrogate them to avoid harming the innocent."
"Alright."
Zhantai Qing Yin nodded. "Capture them and bring them here. Also, the Young Master you mentioned just now was called Ning Qi by that demon?"
"Ning Qi."
"What an unfamiliar name. I've never heard of it before. He asked that demon to lead the way to the Thousand Demon Mountain Range to find the Transformation Fruit … The ruins that the demon mentioned are probably extraordinary. Even a rare item like the Transformation Fruit can only grow in the periphery. Perhaps there are rare flowers and herbs that can increase our cultivation. When this is over, you guys return to the Heavenly Chord Sect. I'll go to the Thousand Demon Mountain Range as well!"
Zhantai Qing Yin said.
"Little Junior Sister, the Thousand Demon Mountain Range is too dangerous. Moreover, that Young Master might not like you following him. If you offend him … He saved you guys, so he shouldn't be a bad person. I'm only seeking some opportunities. If things don't work out, I'll retreat. Don't worry.
Also, don't spread word of this matter. If Senior Brother Chen's corpse can't be found intact, cremate him now and bring his ashes back to the Heavenly Chord Sect for burial. "
Zhantai Qing Yin said.
Seeing this, everyone knew that with Zhantai Qing Yin's personality, once she made a decision, she would definitely carry it out. No matter how they persuaded her, it would be useless.
Very quickly, a few maidservants of the Hu Residence were captured. These maidservants turned pale with fright as they recognized the captured disciples of the Heavenly Chord Sect. However, they thought that the other party had returned to rob them. Clearly, they didn't know much about the details.
After some questioning, Zhantai Qing Yin confirmed that they didn't know that Hu Yuan's identity had been replaced by the fox spirit. Then, she got four Heavenly Chord Sect disciples to knock them out and bring them away. Then, she burned the entire Hu Residence! After doing all that, Zhantai Qing Yin headed to the nearest Thousand Demon Mountain Range.
This fire burned for a day and a night. When the flames were extinguished by the Six Fan Divine Constable Sect, the real corpses of Hu Yuan and the others appeared in the ruins! "Damn it, this little she-devil is really heartless!"
A baihu stood in front of the ruins of the Hu Estate. His face was ashen. Someone had told him that Zhantai Qingyin's whereabouts had appeared here. Without thinking too much, he was sure that the Hu Estate had been burned and the dozens of people in the family had died. It was definitely done by Zhantai Qingyin, and this baihu was the one that Ning Qi had met once before.
He had seen Hu Yuan a few times. At that time, he didn't recognize him and took a few more glances at Hu Yuan. He didn't expect that Hu Yuan's entire family would be burned to death in such a short time.
