"Brother, according to the map, this is the entrance to the Ancient Town of Demons."
Ye You stood at the entrance of a small alley in the ancient town of Emei, holding the sheepskin scroll in her hand, and said to Ye Ling.
Ye Ling scanned the alley with his divine soul and found it to be a dead end.
However, behind the dead end, it was connected to a weak space, and one could pass through it with a specific method.
Of course, one could also force their way through with brute strength.
"There's a weak point in space here, we can pass through from there. Let's go in." Da Feng Novel Network
Ye Ling's expression was icy as he stepped into the alley. Just as he reached the dead end, two small demons less than half a meter tall jumped out from the wall, blocking Ye Ling and Ye You's path. "This is the Ancient Town of Demons, those not invited..."
"Scram!"
Ye Ling let out a cold shout, and a powerful aura erupted from his body, directly scaring the two small demons so much that their faces turned pale, and they stood frozen, not daring to move.
"Sorry!"
The two small demons stood ramrod straight, sweating profusely, terrified of angering Ye Ling and losing their heads!
Ye Ling glanced at the two small demons. Without further words, he passed between them and entered the semi-spiritual realm behind the alley.
Ye You, on the other hand, smiled and squatted down, rubbing the heads of the two small demons, and asked, "Can you tell me if anyone else has come to the Ancient Town of Demons before us?"
"We, we..."
As Ye You rubbed their heads, the two small demons' spirits, which had been frightened by Ye Ling, calmed down. They nodded at Ye You and said, "Yes, yes..."
Ye You smiled even more happily and gently said, "Then can you tell big sister?"
Seeing Ye You's smile, which was like a spring breeze, the two small demons' faces immediately flushed, and they nodded vigorously.
...
Ancient Town of Demons.
The place was different from what Ye Ling had imagined. Although demonic energy was surging all around, and a large number of demons were gathered, the environment here was even more beautiful than the ancient town of Emei!
The ancient town of Emei was already a famous ancient town in China, with numerous historical sites and beautiful scenery.
However, compared to the Ancient Town of Demons, the scenery of the ancient town of Emei was far inferior.
The Ancient Town of Demons could be called a paradise on earth, a fairyland.
Ye Ling glanced at the surrounding environment, but he was not in the mood to admire the scenery. He immediately used his divine soul to scan the entire ancient town, searching for Su Ruoxue's trace.
"Su Ruoxue's aura is here... but she's gone."
A trace of Su Ruoxue's aura permeated the air. This indicated that the people from the Shadow Hall had brought Su Ruoxue here, so they had not come to the wrong place.
However, Ye Ling scanned every corner of the Ancient Town of Demons with his divine soul, but he could not find any trace of Su Ruoxue.
"Have they left?" Unable to find Su Ruoxue, Ye Ling frowned, a hint of gloom flashing in his eyes. "It seems I have to go to Buzhou Mountain."
At this moment, Ye You walked in from behind Ye Ling and said to him, "Brother, I've gotten some useful information from those two little demons. Sister Ruoxue might still be in the Ancient Town of Demons."
"Still in the Ancient Town of Demons?"
Hearing Ye You's words, Ye Ling was stunned and asked, "Why?"
Ye You said, "Recently, the Netherworld and the Human World have been intersecting, causing Buzhou Mountain to be sealed. We have to wait for three days for the entrance to Buzhou Mountain to appear. Before that, no one can find the location of Buzhou Mountain, nor can they enter it."
"Moreover, those two little demons also said that some human cultivators have forced their way into the Ancient Town of Demons, and now all the demons in the town are looking for those people. I think those people should be from the Shadow Hall."
"Buzhou Mountain will only open in three days, so the Shadow Hall is giving us three days to consider..." Ye Ling murmured, then released his spiritual power and set up a 360-degree, all-encompassing barrier around the entire Ancient Town of Demons.
Now, the entire Ancient Town of Demons was under Ye Ling's spiritual power, only allowing entry, not exit!
"Brother, what is this..."
Ye You watched as the barrier behind her disappeared and asked Ye Ling.
Ye Ling said, "They hid Ruoxue by some means, and I can't find her with my divine soul. We might have to search for her in the Ancient Town of Demons for the next few days."
"By setting up a barrier around here, they can't take Ruoxue out, and we'll have more time."
Hearing Ye Ling's words, Ye You also nodded. "Sealing the Ancient Town of Demons is indeed a good method. As long as Sister Ruoxue is in the Ancient Town of Demons, even if the people from the Shadow Hall can hide Sister Ruoxue by some means, they won't be able to take her out."
"However, with just this, we still can't find the people from the Shadow Hall. And with the sudden closure of the Ancient Town of Demons, I'm afraid the demons inside will become chaotic. If the powerful demons cause trouble, they might even hurt Sister Ruoxue."
"I think we still need to enlist the help of the demons here. After all, this is their territory, and they are more familiar with it than we are." Da Feng Novel.
Ye Ling nodded. "Indeed, it will be easier to find Ruoxue with the help of the demons here than by ourselves. However, I don't know any of the powerful demons here..."
"Brother, are you dizzy with worry?"
Ye You tapped Ye Ling's head. "Didn't I say before that besides the Ancient Town of Demons, there's also Mount Shu in this semi-spiritual realm!"
"We don't know those powerful demons, but Mount Shu, as a celestial orthodox sect in the mortal world, is responsible for supervising this Ancient Town of Demons. The elders in Mount Shu must know the powerful demons here!"
"We can just ask the people from Mount Shu for help."
Hearing Ye You's words, Ye Ling suddenly realized. "Yes, we can also ask the people from Mount Shu for help... I actually forgot about this..."
"Brother, you're worried sick. There are still three days left, and we have plenty of time. There's no need to be so anxious."
"But Sister Ruoxue is lost, why do I feel like you're more anxious than when I was lost?" Ye You tilted her head and looked at Ye Ling, deliberately acting jealous.
With Ye You's interruption, Ye Ling finally calmed down completely, shook his head, and chuckled, "Ruoxue is just an ordinary person, unlike you."
Ye You said, "How is she different? I'm angry now!"
"Alright, alright... you're all the same. Let's talk about business first."
Ye Ling, unable to refuse Ye You, rubbed her head in surrender before saying, "The Shadow Hall's target is the ultimate power within us. As long as they haven't succeeded, Ruoxue is absolutely safe. We don't need to rush now."
"Since this is also Mount Shu's territory, let's go to Mount Shu first. The child you saved back then has now grown into an elder of Mount Shu, and you can have a good reunion."
"The child I saved back then?" Ye You was stunned at first, then slapped her hand. "I remember now, it's Xu Changsheng! That little kid back then has now become the owner of the Xuanyuan Sword, which is quite remarkable."
"I remember a few years ago I asked him to help look after Snow Hidden Valley, but then I got busy and forgot about it."
"So you've forgotten about him?" Ye Ling gave Ye You a reproachful look. "He guarded Snow Hidden Valley for several years because of your words, and you, this girl, are so heartless..."
"I was just a bit busy..."
Ye You chuckled awkwardly, then clasped her hands together and pleaded with Ye Ling, "Brother! Please don't tell Xu Changsheng about this, so as not to hurt that kid's feelings."
"You..." Ye Ling shook his head and smiled, about to speak, when a deafening explosion came from not far away.
Then, there were screams of agony!
