"Be careful, Blood Progenitor. There's still the residual aura of demons on this warship.
However, it's very weak and barely discernible. Someone from the demon race must have released energy on this warship.
As for what they did, I don't know.
But we can't rule out the possibility that they've used some method that even I can't detect to hide here! "
Gu Xuan transmitted his findings to the Blood Progenitor.
A trace of astonishment flashed across the Blood Progenitor's face.
He hadn't expected that even this warship from the Li family's land would have the aura of demons on it.
What this meant was self-evident.
The Blood Progenitor's gaze toward the three elders changed somewhat. There was now some suspicion in his eyes.
This so-called third elder was the person with the highest status on this warship. He might have been controlled by the demons.
When Gu Xuan had first detected the aura of the demons, he'd also been suspicious of the three elders. He'd deliberately used the power of his spirit to examine them several times, but hadn't found anything unusual. Only then did he drop the matter.
"This old man is the third elder of the Li family. Greetings, Fellow Daoist Wu Hei! Fellow Daoist Wu Hei, saving Yuanxiao is a great favor to the Li family. When we return to the family land, we'll definitely repay you generously! Now, please tell this old man in detail what you discovered during your fight with the bandit leader! "
The third elder carefully examined the aura on Wu Hei's body and confirmed it with Li Yuanxiao several times. In the end, he still cupped his hands toward Wu Hei with a slightly suspicious expression and began to ask him about the bandit leader.
Wu Hei was actually a little dazed to be treated so respectfully by such an important figure. He even forgot to return the greeting, let alone answer the question.
When the third elder saw this, his suspicion of Wu Hei's strength lessened by a little.
In his opinion, Wu Hei was clearly arrogant and boastful of his strength. He didn't deign to return the greeting.
This was very much like a reclusive expert! The third elder wasn't surprised.
His Li family, as a family of pill saints, had once been a reclusive family. When their disciples roamed the world, they'd also behaved like this when they went to small sects! For a moment, the third elder couldn't help but think more highly of Wu Hei.
With such confidence, there might be a powerful background behind this Jet-Black.
As someone who had fought with a high-level saint before, Ru Hei was rather experienced. He quickly reacted and realized that it wasn't appropriate for him to be in a daze.
He turned his head slightly and looked at Gu Xuan for help.
Gu Xuan transmitted his voice, "Don't say too much, just say two words. They will investigate the rest …" After hearing Gu Xuan's words, his pitch-black eyes widened. Even his face turned slightly pale, while his body began to tremble.
He could not help but repeat the two words that Gu Xuan had said, "Demon Race!"
As soon as these words were spoken, the pupils of everyone present abruptly constricted and their faces turned pale.
Even Li Yuanxiao and the third elder shuddered. It was obvious that they were utterly astounded.
For a moment, the entire warship was silent, unusually quiet.
Everyone was still in shock, so naturally, no one noticed the abnormality in Ru Hei's body.
After an unknown amount of time, the third elder finally regained his senses.
He stared at Ru Hei with a grave expression.
"This is a serious matter. Dao friend, are you confident? Or do you have any evidence to prove that the Demon Race is the mastermind behind all this?"
Ru Hei naturally couldn't provide any evidence. Just as he was about to transmit his voice to Gu Xuan, he suddenly felt a lump of something in his left sleeve.
Before Ru Hei could react, that lump of something had already flown out.
It was a black energy ball. The energy within was tumbling and emitting a terrifying qi presence.
Buzz.
The black energy ball trembled.
Billowing demonic qi gushed out from within and spread out in all directions.
"Demonic qi! You are a member of the Demon Race! "
The third elder was shocked. He grabbed Li Yuanxiao's shoulder and quickly retreated. It seemed like he was planning to escape from the warship.
Thump Thump Thump.
The guards of the Heavenly Crow Merchant Guild and the ordinary members of the Li Clan all fell to the ground.
Demonic qi, it was too frightening! Ru Hei was also shocked at first, but Gu Xuan had already transmitted a message to him. Ru Hei might be confused, but he could only explain according to Gu Xuan's explanation.
"Don't misunderstand. This is the demonic qi that I extracted from the bandit leader's body after I killed him.
In my opinion, those bandits are all under the control of the Demon Race.
Otherwise, with the Li Clan's current reputation, no one would dare to attack the direct descendants of the Li Clan in the Northern Wilderness Region. "
Hearing this, everyone heaved a sigh of relief.
Li Yuanxiao and the third elder awkwardly stopped running and returned to their original positions.
Just now, they were too nervous.
Otherwise, if they thought about it carefully, they would know that Ru Hei was not a member of the Demon Race.
Otherwise, Li Yuanxiao would have been captured long ago. How could he still be standing on the Li Clan's warship?
"Brother Ru Hei, I lost my composure just now. Please forgive me.
It's because your news is too shocking. "
The third elder said with an apologetic smile.
Ru Hei waved his hand. He was so scared that he couldn't move.
The Third Elder was actually able to react in time and immediately flee. This was simply amazing! After that, the third elder was no longer in the mood to chat with Ru Hei. All his thoughts were focused on the matter of the Demon Race attacking the Li Clan.
The warship also sped up.
The news of the Demon Race's appearance in the Northern Wilderness Region was too shocking. They had to report it as soon as possible and make arrangements.
Gu Xuan and the Blood Ancestor stood at the edge of the warship as if it had nothing to do with them. They looked at the scene outside leisurely and leisurely.
Suddenly, small bats that were hard to see with the naked eye flew toward the Blood Ancestor and quickly entered his body.
"All the bandits, don't leave a single one alive. Kill them all!"
The Blood Ancestor grinned, and an evil light flashed in his eyes.
Gu Xuan nodded slightly.
"Very good. This is the most convenient way! Next, let's go to the Li Clan and see how far the Demon Race has infiltrated. "
The Blood Ancestor laughed strangely.
"No matter how far they have infiltrated, this trip to the Li Clan is probably very deep.
After all, under Feng Manlou's lead, the people from the Heavenly Path camp all entered the Li Clan.
They went to protect the Li Clan, but the Li Clan was infiltrated by the Demon Race. I don't believe that the people from the Heavenly Path camp didn't notice this. "
Gu Xuan held his chin, obviously thinking about this problem.
"You're right.
The Li Clan is supported by a pill saint who suddenly appeared, but the Heavenly Path camp is different. Behind them is the biggest boss of the Burning Sky Realm, the Heavenly Path! It's not an exaggeration to say that the Li Clan is under the nose of the Heavenly Path now.
The Demon Race dared to infiltrate the Li Clan, and I don't believe that there aren't great benefits.
Although our goal is only to 'borrow' the Heaven Stealing Divine Pill, we can't sit back and do nothing when it comes to such great benefits. "
The Blood Ancestor's eyes lit up.
"You mean, we have to 'borrow' the benefits that we don't know about?"
Gu Xuan shook his head.
"Although the Ying Tian Sect and the Li Clan are mortal enemies, this is an internal matter of the Burning Sky Realm.
When it comes to the Demon Race, it's a conflict between the Burning Sky Realm and the outside world.
If the Demon Race really makes a move on the Li Clan, whether there are benefits or not, I will help.
Of course, the Li Clan has a pill saint, so they may not need my help.
In short, let's wait and see. "
The Blood Ancestor was a little disappointed, but he still nodded.
He didn't have a sense of belonging to the Burning Sky Realm like Gu Xuan. After all, he wasn't from the Burning Sky Realm at all.
The warship traveled smoothly.
Soon, they entered the Li Clan's territory.
A majestic city appeared before everyone's eyes.
This was the only city in the Li Clan's territory, Dongbi City!
