Chapter 1331  Getting to the Bottom of Things

Yue Lingyin's plan was very simple.

Kill Dong Qingyan first, then destroy Gui Hai!

At this point in the fight between the two sides, both Dong Qingyan and Gui Hai had suffered heavy losses. According to Yue Lingyin's prediction, Gui Hai's demon body was about to be removed.

Sure enough, when Dong Qingyan was busy with his own affairs, Gui Hai turned into a human again.

With a smile, Yue Lingyin disappeared from the spot.

When she reappeared, Yue Lingyin was already above Gui Hai.

With a wave of her white hands, a rain of flying needles fell from the sky.

The way of flying needles is weight rather than quality.

Yue Lingyin's flying needles were densely packed and layered, just like a cloud of rain in the sky, covering the sky above Gui Hai.

Ding Ding Dang Dang, rain hitting banana leaves.

Gui Hai relied on his half-demon body and body refining secrets to remain unmoved.

But soon, Gui Hai found that his Qi defense shield could not resist those flying needles at all - the flying needles penetrated the defense and attacked Gui Hai.

The fragmented attacks did not threaten Gui Hai.

At this time, Yue Lingyin had quietly withdrawn her hands.

It was as if she was just playing a harmless joke with Gui Hai.

But if those flying needles were quenched with poison, it would not be a joke...

At this time, Xiao Mian knew Yue Lingyin's plan very well.

Xiao Mian didn't know why Yue Lingyin was unwilling to let Dong Qingyan go, but since Yue Lingyin wanted to keep Dong Qingyan here, he would let Dong Qingyan go!

At this time, Dong Qingyan was trying his best to resist the invasion of the ghost-headed knife.

Xiao Mian imitated Yue Lingyin and shouted at the black gas.

The rolling sound waves gathered into a sword.

Where the sword passed, a hole appeared in the black gas.

At this moment, Xiao Mian's loud shout exploded in Dong Qingyan's ears.

"If you don't leave now, when will you leave?"

Dong Qingyan was alert all over, gritted his teeth and spit out another mouthful of his lifeblood.

Suddenly, a stream of purple and green light broke through the blood mist and black air from the inside out, and rushed towards the western sky regardless of anything...

Dong Qingyan, after all, is a direct disciple of Baimei Mountain.

Yue Lingyin, after all, is the proud disciple of Lingxiu Palace.

Once Dong Qingyan escapes back to Wangxian City, maybe he can stir up the dirty between Baimei Mountain and Lingxiu Palace. This is Xiao Mian's idea of ​​saving Dong Qingyan.

Since Dong Qingyan was let go, it's time to deal with Yue Lingyin.

As for Yue Lingyin, her face changed drastically when she saw Dong Qingyan running away.

With a turn of her eyes, Yue Lingyin didn't care about attacking Gui Hai, so she wanted to withdraw.

But Xiao Mian had already made up his mind to kill her, so how could he let her escape safely?

Silently, an extremely ancient divine stone fell from the sky.

The stone talisman emitted waves of unstoppable magnetic rays, which confined the airspace above the ship into a magnetic field.

Even Lin Donglai, who had a deep foundation, could not escape from the magnetic field even when he used the demon clan's true body, let alone Yue Lingyin, a mere female cultivator?

She could not move, but she could speak, with only a pair of bright eyes, surprised and suspicious.

"Xiao Mian? So, you are Xiao Mian!" Yue Lingyin looked at Xiao Mian with resentment, but little fear. Without waiting for Xiao Mian to speak, Yue Lingyin smiled strangely: "You are just courting your own destruction! The Holy Emperor is immortal, and the Goddess is immortal!"

In the end, Yue Lingyin's face was full of piety.

Humph!

It is indeed a disaster!

Thinking this way, Xiao Mian hadn't figured out how to deal with Yue Lingyin when something strange happened.

Yue Lingyin's face changed again and again, and finally, blood rose, and a blood mark suddenly appeared on the corner of her red lips.

Xiao Mian knew that something was wrong, so he tried to remedy it, but it was too late.

Yue Lingyin actually chose to self-destruct!

At that moment, strong fluctuations of true essence and consciousness swept the whole place.

Even Shi Gan Dang's magnetic field could not support it.

What Xiao Mian didn't expect was that along with Yue Lingyin's self-destruction, the ship carrying them to the East China Sea also exploded...

Obviously, Yue Lingyin or Lingxiu Palace had already made some moves on the ship.

It was a pity that no one on that ship of cultivators escaped!

Secretly hating himself for underestimating Yue Lingyin's cruelty, Xiao Mian didn't have time to think about it. He quickly came to Gui Hai, lifted Gui Hai up, and fled.

After a long time, thousands of miles away in the east, Xiao Mian stopped.

According to the information sent back by Wuxiang Heart Demon, there is an island a thousand miles ahead, called Liuyun Island, which can be used as a temporary resting place.

But when he looked at Guihai again, Xiao Mian's heart sank.

At this time, Guihai was unconscious, and only his whole body was black.

Poisonous!

Obviously, the flying needles that Yue Lingyin attacked Guihai were poisoned.

Fortunately, Xiao Mian himself was a big poison jar. The poison relic in his body turned slightly, and the poison on Guihai's body was reduced by three points, and Guihai also woke up.

At this time, Xiao Mian had restored his original appearance.

Guihai was overjoyed when he saw Xiao Mian.

After a conversation between the two, Xiao Mian learned that there was still residual poison in Guihai's body, so he proposed to rush to Liuyun Island and clean up the residual poison as soon as possible.

At that moment, the two rushed towards Liuyun Island.

Besides, Liuyun Island is tens of thousands of miles away from Wangxian City, and is already in the open sea, not under the jurisdiction of Wangxian City or Dongwu Prefecture.

Therefore, on Liuyun Island, humans and demons live together, and there are even more demons than humans.

Thanks to Gui Hai's half-demon body of Mo Pan's bloodline, and Xiao Mian's Wanhua Lingxiang and Yushen Mirror, the two of them entered the island peacefully.

Finding a secluded place, Xiao Mian began to remove the remaining poison in Gui Hai's body.

This busy work lasted for three days and three nights.

The poison that Yue Lingyin used to poison Gui Hai was not strong, but rather lingering and dragging.

If Xiao Mian had not practiced the "Ten Thousand Poisons Curse", he would not have been able to cope with it!

Three days later, Gui Hai recovered, and the two of them drank and talked happily.

During the conversation, Xiao Mian finally understood why Gui Hai went out to sea with the ship.

That day in Tiandu City, under pressure from the situation, Gui Hai joined the Badao City.

After that, the Tiandu Martial Arts Conference was closed, and Gui Hai went east along the Huangtian River, entered Dongwuzhou, and entered Badao City.

After three years in Badao City, Gui Hai thought he was already a member of Badao City.

Some time ago, Wangxian City asked Badao City for help.

The reason was that a large number of ships were in distress at sea.

Badao City was one of the three major super powers in Dongwuzhou. It was natural that there was no reason to refuse when Wangxian City came to ask for help.

At that moment, Badao City sent a lot of elite swordsmen to Wangxian City.

Gui Hai was one of them.

Coincidentally, Baimei Mountain and Lingxiu Palace also sent their own disciples.

Gui Hai and Dong Qingyan had a disagreement and were almost caught by Yue Lingyin.

"Brother! Have you ever met Yue Lingyin?"

"I had never seen her before entering Wangxian City!" Gui Hai shook his head and said to himself: "Could it be that Dong Qingyan has a grudge against Yue Lingyin?"

"It shouldn't be! If they have a grudge against each other, they won't go out to sea at the same time!"

This is obvious: if one of them joins Gui Hai, the other will suffer...

"If you say it's not true, then it's not true!"

Gui Hai doesn't bother to think about this kind of question.

Xiao Mian saw it and didn't know whether to laugh or cry.

But deep in Xiao Mian's heart, there was an undercurrent.

Before in Wangxian City, Xiao Mian had secretly explored it.

The reason why there are so many ships working at sea is because someone is spending a lot of money to frantically buy all kinds of precious spiritual materials in the depths of the ocean.

In three months, the ships that went out to sea never returned.

As a result, the prices of those spiritual materials have been rising.

Seeing that it is profitable, more cultivators will naturally join the ranks of going out to sea.

They didn't know: the seemingly calm East China Sea was actually a vicious demon that chose its prey!

I just hope that Dong Qingyan's return and Yue Lingyin's death can make some people restrain themselves. Otherwise, the battle of the East China Sea might start from Wangxian City.

Lingxiu Palace!

Unfortunately, Xiao Mian only had suspicions but no evidence.

Even if Yue Lingyin had evil intentions, it was not enough to prove it!

Putting down the suspicion in his heart, Xiao Mian and Gui Hai stayed on Liuyun Island for a few days.

During these days, Gui Hai had nothing to do, but Xiao Mian did not stop for a moment - he wandered around Liuyun Island and bought a lot of East China Sea specialties.

However, just when the two were about to leave Liuyun Island and go to the deeper offshore waters to explore, a big thing happened on Liuyun Island that day.

A giant ocean liner came from the east and sailed to Liuyun Island.

If it was just like that, the two would not care at all.

The problem is: as soon as the ocean liner landed on the island, a voice spread throughout Liuyun Island.

Human flesh, do you want it?

Xiao Mian and Gui Hai's pupils shrank and their pores tightened when they heard this.

But thinking about it again, this place is no longer a human cultivation world, but the Liuyun Island in the East China Sea where there are more monsters than humans.

For monsters, humans are nothing more than blood food and slaves...

This is also true in the human cultivation world.

Humans enslave monsters and plant soul contracts in their bodies, calling them spirit beasts.

What's more, some gluttons with high cultivation are fond of the unique taste of certain monsters, and often hunt monsters all over the world just to feast on them.

Those who are not of my race must have different hearts.

Humans and monsters are separated, and water and fire cannot coexist.

This is understandable.

However, Xiao Mian and Gui Hai still felt uncomfortable when they heard the monsters on Liuyun Island shouting about selling fresh human flesh all over the world.

With a turn of his eyes, Xiao Mian tricked a little monster in as a buyer.

The little demon was a carp spirit, but at the fourth level, and had just condensed a demon pill.

After entering the room of the two, the little demon enthusiastically introduced the human flesh it had on hand...

"Two seniors, it is absolutely wise for you to ask me to buy this human flesh! The human flesh outside is all frozen zombie meat, and this human flesh of mine is freshly slaughtered within three days. Don't disbelieve it, two seniors! Human flesh, if it is not fresh, will become sour! This human flesh of mine..."

"Slaughtered within three days?"

"That's right! Ten times the compensation for fake goods, no deception, no false advertising!"

"Hmph! You are so stupid! How can you kill a mere fourth-level carp spirit on the spot?" Without even looking at the little demon, Xiao Mian glanced at a human corpse that the little demon took out, and said calmly: "From what I can see, this person was also a Jindan cultivator in his lifetime!"

"Senior, you are so smart!" Extending a front fin and making a gesture, the carp spirit said again: "Of course, I can't beat these invading human cultivators, but this batch of goods was transported all the way from Lingyangze, there is no mistake!"

"Lingyangze! ?"

"Senior, you should believe it this time, right?"

"......, this blood food, how much is it worth, I want it!"

"Okay!"

Seeing Xiao Mian give in, the little demon smiled.

But its cultivation is too low, and it has not yet transformed, so its smile is very creepy.

The transaction went smoothly, but there were some problems when handing over the payment.

"Spirit stones? Don't you have pearl coins, senior?" Seeing Xiao Mian take out a bag of spirit stones, the little demon was quite unhappy. Xiao Mian saw it, his face sank, and he pretended to be angry and said: "Why? As far as I know, spirit stones are still common in Liuyun Island. Are you going to refuse to accept them?"

"I dare not! I dare not! It's just that I travel between Liuyun Island and Lingyangze. Although this spirit stone is useful in Liuyun Island, it is useless in Lingyangze... Hey! Forget it! Forget it!"

In the end, the little demon reluctantly took a bag of spirit stones.

As for Xiao Mian, he bought the corpse not for eating.

Xiao Mian did not know the deceased Jindan cultivator, but he had seen him.

Through a certain formless demon, Xiao Mian had seen a similar human cultivator on a ship. I think this person should be him.

In addition, it was fate that Xiao Mian could see the other person's corpse on Liuyun Island in the outer sea!

Taking out a cold stone box, Xiao Mian put the corpse of the stranger into it, waiting to return to the land in the future and find a place to bury it.

After packing up, Xiao Mian did not plan to leave.

Humph!

Lingyangze?

Although the little demon did not reveal the roots of Lingyangze, Xiao Mian had already done enough homework for the bloody battle in the East China Sea in the future.

Putting aside the 100,000-mile inland sea near Wangxian City, the entire East China Sea is vast and boundless, and is divided into dozens of spheres of influence of varying sizes.

The largest of them is the 18 forbidden areas belonging to the 18 demon kings of the East China Sea.

Lingyangze is one of the 18 forbidden areas.

The demon king who commands Lingyangze is the one Xiao Mian has heard of long ago - King Ran Yi!

If it was another demon king, Xiao Mian might not care so much.

However, this King Ran Yi had a criminal record.

Back then, on the bank of the Huangtian River, Xiao Mian once killed a sixth-level fathead fish demon named Ran Jue, who claimed to be a demon general under the throne of King Ran Yi.

Ran Jue traveled thousands of miles and went up the Huangtian River, just to exchange supplies with small forces such as Xuandao Sect and Huajian Sect.

If it was just that, Xiao Mian would naturally not ask.

However, the supplies exchanged by both parties were blood food and cauldron furnace!

Because of this, Ran Jue died at the hands of Xiao Mian, and even Huajian Sect and Xuandao Sect were killed by Lei Zhen Palace and Yan Ji Sect respectively.

Now, combined with the words of the little demon, Xiao Mian was furious.

The human cultivators who set out from Wangxian City drifted on the East China Sea and passed through Lingyangze, becoming blood food that the demons rushed to buy!

Although working at sea is inherently risky.

But judging from the information returned by the nearly 1,000 Formless Heart Demons that Xiao Mian had previously released, this risk is too high.

No wonder Wangxian City has to ask Badao City, Baimei Mountain, and Lingxiu Palace for help.

It would be fine if I didn't know about this matter.

Now that I know it, I have to dig deeper and ask for the bottom of it!
