After the fierce battle, everyone returned to the living room.
“Elder Huang, how are your injuries?” Liu Mufeng asked as he looked at Huang Shi’an.
“Junior Brother Liu, don’t worry, I’ve already taken a healing pill, and I’ll be fine after a few days of recuperating. This time I have to thank Junior Brother Liu and Junior Brother Jiang. Otherwise, I’m afraid I would have died at the hands of that rebellious person.” Huang Shi’an sighed softly.
“That slut actually killed my Granddaughter, and turned her into a corpse puppet.” Li Ruyue burst into tears.
“Mom.” Huang Shi’an called out softly, his expression was also extremely grim.
“Forget it Grandma, my Sister has been avenged, don’t be too sad.” Huang Jie also comforted her.
“Oh, this bitch, she should have been killed in the first place. That bitch!” Li Ruyue still felt itchy with hatred as she thought of Huang Shanshan.
“Elder Li, Elder Huang, you two are well-informed. I don’t know if you have heard, what kind of cultivation methods can turn someone into a demon after death and attack?” Liu Mufeng asked in puzzlement.
“I don’t know about this either.” Huang Shi’an shook his head in negation.
“I heard that there is a kind of Demon Seed that can be planted in the body of a cultivator. Millions of years ago, during the Human-Demon War, the Demon Race had used this method to brutalize human cultivators, using the Demon Seed to suck the essence from the cultivator’s body. After the cultivator was drained, they would completely and utterly turn into a brutal and murderous demonic beast. In fact, there are some ancient books about the great war in the Sect’s Advanced Book Pavillion. As long as one was an Elder in the sect, they had the authority to read them. It’s just that the two Junior Brothers left the sect relatively early, so maybe they haven’t been to the Advanced Book Pavillion yet.”
“There is also an Advanced Book Pavillion?” Jiang Xu was very surprised by this.
“Yes, the Advanced Book Pavillion is actually built in the basement of our Sect’s Book Pavillion. If the two Juniors are interested, when you go back to the sect, you can apply for a key from the Sect Master and go to the Advanced Book Pavillion to read the Advanced Books. The price of reading high-level books is not low, so if the two Junior Brothers go, they should prepare more spirit stones.”
“Thank you, Senior Sister Li, for your advice. After we return to the sect, I will definitely go to the Advanced Book Pavillion to have a look.” Lowering his head, Liu Mufeng immediately thanked the other party.
“You’re welcome, Junior Brother Liu.” Li Ruyue waved her hand and said nonchalantly.
“Senior Sister Li, Senior Brother Huang, Junior Brother Huang, you have come from afar, first rest at my place for two days, and whenXiaoXu and I recover from our injuries, I will start to help Junior Brother Huang heal his spiritual roots.” Looking at the three of them, Liu Mufeng said so.

“En.” Nodding, Liu Mufeng looked at Liu Xuan. “Xuanxuan, take the three distinguished guests to the guest room to rest.”

“Yes, I agree with Xiaoyue. There must be others behind these two people. They have accomplices.” Nodding, Jiang Xu agreed.
“Boss, Huang Shanshan’s doll, black lotus and handkerchief, as well as Sun Song’s sword, skull and ring, all of these are demonic instruments, and are not ordinary magical weapons, but special magical weapons that can export demonicqi.” Xiaoxiao said so as he looked at Liu Mufeng.
“Yes, that Black Lotus was very powerful, and it’s the first time I’ve encountered a magic weapon that could suppress me.” Shi Lian frowned. You must know that Mufeng’s Golden Lantern was an ancient magic weapon, and its quality was excellent. Every time it was used in a fight, it was always invincible. This time, she was restrained by the opponent’s magic weapon, which made Shi Lian very depressed.
“Demonic instruments, so to speak, the people behind Huang Shanshan and Sun Song are not simple. They have special magic weapons like demonic instruments, as well as forbidden techniques such as Demon Seeds and Blood Relatives’ Tribute Method. It seems that the people behind them are really not simple.” Having said this, Liu Mufeng couldn’t help squinting his eyes.
“Then, what should we do? Are we going to find this person?” Jiang Xu asked.
“No, we have no clues to find the other. Besides, even if we find the other person, we are not his opponent. He can train Huang Shanshan and Sun Song in two to three hundred years. It is conceivable that this person’s strength would never be too low. Instead of going to our deaths, we should think about how to improve our own strength. As long as we have absolute strength, no matter how many plots and tricks the other party has, they will be crushed to smithereens. Similarly, if we don’t have enough strength, we can only be killed by the other party.”
“En, that’s true.” Nodding, Jiang Xu agreed with Liu Mufeng’s point of view.
“Master, who do you think it could be? Who wants to kill us?” Xiaoyuan asked suspiciously.
“In my impression, I don’t seem to have such a powerful enemy.” Shaking his head, Liu Mufeng couldn’t think of who it would be.
“Could it be Xue Yan?” Shi Lian’s face was extremely ugly.
“It’s possible. Maybe he already knows we’ve come to the North.” Liu Mufeng also thought it might be that Xue Yan. Because this person was the most suspicious, and his strength was high enough.
“If that’s the case, should we go back to the Human Race to avoid the limelight?” Jin Xiao asked.
“It’s useless. He is stronger than us. If he wants to, he can kill us wherever we are. So, it doesn’t matter whether we are in the North or in the Human Race, it is the same.”
“Mufeng, I have an intuition. I feel that Xue Yan is not in the North. I feel that if he was in the North, he would not go to great lengths to use Huang Jie to lure us out. Therefore, the North should be safe now.” After thinking about it, Jiang Xu felt that his opponent was not in the North.
“En, I think so too.” Nodding, Liu Mufeng said the same.
“Forget it, you don’t have to think so much, we will do as the situation demands. If we really can’t beat them, I can use the power of space to take everyone with me to escape, so everyone doesn’t have to worry too much.” Looking at everyone, Bai Hu said.
“Yes, when necessary, I will help you hold him down. When the time comes, you leave with Mufeng andXiaoXu. Remember, while there is life, there is hope. Just avenge me.” Shi Lian replied.
“XiaoLian.” Bai Hu frowned when he heard Shi Lian’s words. Everyone else also looked sad.
“Don’t be sad, everyone. Even if there is only one person left in our Stone Clan, we must take revenge. This is our belief.”
“Yes, we must take revenge.” The other four demon beasts agreed.
“Revenge must be taken. Xue Yan must also be killed. However, we cannot act recklessly. Let us plan this matter slowly and long-term, and not make any sacrifices.” Liu Mufeng said as he looked at everyone.
“Mufeng is right. From now on, we will all listen to Mufeng.” Shi Lian said as she looked at the crowd.
Liu Mufeng nodded. He turned to look at Xiaoxiao and the other person’s bulging belly. “Xiaoxiao, I see you have eaten a lot today. I have pills here. You can go to the bracelet dimension for seclusion. Absorb the demonic energy in your body. Drink more spiritual water. In this way, the speed will be faster for absorption.”
“En, I understand, Boss.” Nodding, Xiaoxiao expressed her understanding.
Taking out the pills and giving them to Xiaoxiao, Liu Mufeng took Xiaoxiao into his bracelet dimension.
“Jin Xiao, how are your injuries?” Liu Mufeng asked carefully.
“I am okay. Just skin injuries.” Jin Xiao replied.
Taking out the healing pills, Liu Mufeng gave the other party three healing pills. Jin Xiao immediately took one pill and put the remaining two pills into his storage ring.
“Uncle Bai, Xiaoyue, are you two injured?” Liu Mufeng asked.
“We’re fine.” Shaking their heads, the two said they were fine.
Liu Mufeng turned his head and looked at his Golden Lantern. “Senior Shi, how are you?”
“I’m fine.” At this point, Shi Lian showed a weak smile.
Taking out his own gourd, Liu Mufeng took out a small cup and poured half a cup of milky white liquid from the gourd. “Senior Shi, this is the liquid refined using the Spirit Devouring Insects. It has a strong effect on soul power, please try it.”
“En.” Shi Lian floated out from the Golden Lantern and immediately drank the half cup of liquid. Suddenly she felt that her soul felt much more comfortable and solidified.
Liu Mufeng was very happy to see that Shi Lian’s soul had solidified a lot. “It seems that these Spirit Devouring Insects are indeed extraordinary.”
“Is it the one in Mu Zhang’s sea of consciousness?” Shi Lian asked.
“Yes, that’s the one.” Before, Liu Mufeng used half of the Spirit Devouring Insects liquid to refine a batch of pills. After taking it, he felt that his soul power had improved a lot. He knew it was good stuff.
“It’s indeed a good thing.” Nodding, Shi Lian also thought it was a good thing. This insect had lived in the head of an eighth-level cultivator for so long, absorbing the other person’s soul power and spiritual energy, and had become very strong. Naturally, it was different from other Spirit Devouring Insects.
“XiaoXu, how are you? Are you feeling better?” Liu Mufeng asked worriedly as he looked at his lover.
“I am okay. After taking the healing pills, I’m much better.” Jiang Xu said that he was okay.
“I’ll help you go to rest. Everyone, let’s go back and rest.” With that, Liu Mufeng opened the barrier with a wave of his hand. The five demon beasts all left Liu Mufeng’s room, and Shi Lian was also taken away by Bai Hu.
