It's like two or three dolls being sewn together with needle and thread—eerie, terrifying, and chilling...
06 After just one glance, Uncle Nine couldn't help but turn his face away.
"How cruel..."
"It seems the whole thing isn't that simple."
Su Feng rubbed his chin thoughtfully. "Uncle Jiu, take a look at the walls inside."
Uncle Nine pursed his lips, trying to avoid the bloody scene on the ground, and looked up into the interior space.
soon.
He then noticed something amiss.
"What happened to the cracks in the wall? Was it smashed open?"
Several cracks appeared on the walls of this blood-red room.
Moreover, one of the streaks even extended all the way to the feet of the corpse.
However, Su Feng did not sense any magic from it.
"Don't you find it strange? The entire room is blood red... And I just noticed that right above this room is at the feet of the statue of Jesus!"
Hearing Su Feng's words, Uncle Nine was stunned. "Young Master Su, do you mean that this... is a room that seals something?"
Su Feng nodded without comment.
He had noticed something amiss when he came in to rescue people during the church collapse.
The Jesus statue that collapsed on the ground was strange; its lower half was black.
Moreover, it was corroded and hollowed out, making it look somewhat distorted.
Obviously.
It was for this reason that the seal was broken, and the suppressed Western demons escaped.
……
Su Feng told Jiang Dalong everything he had seen, and the latter ordered the security team to go down and confirm the situation.
The mysterious deaths of four missionaries, the sudden collapse of the church...
Meanwhile, more than a dozen criminals carrying opium appeared tonight.
Tonight can only be described as chaotic.
However, following up on the opium issue was not Su Feng's or Uncle Jiu's responsibility.
So after handing Scarface and the others over to Jiang Dalong, he left.
The important thing right now is to find the fleeing dragon slayer and the Western devil whose whereabouts are unknown.
But the world is vast, and finding a demon that can fly and disappear is easier said than done.
So Su Feng and Uncle Jiu decided to go back to the inn to discuss and think of a solution.
"Young Master Su, please have some tea."
Inside the guest room, Wencai served hot tea, and then he and Qiusheng sat quietly beside him.
They were not involved in what happened tonight, but they were aware of the commotion earlier.
"Young Master Su, what do you think should be done about this?" Uncle Nine asked.
He had known about the eerie atmosphere inside the church for several years.
During this period, no matter what method was used, it was impossible to eliminate these yin energies.
Only today did I realize that the Taoist magic he used was completely ineffective against this demon from the West.
Su Feng took a sip of hot tea, pondered for a moment, and then slowly spoke, "This Western devil is quite powerful, and having been sealed for so many years, his resentment must be extremely strong. Now that he has been released, he will probably not let it go."
Uncle Nine was slightly taken aback, "Could it be..."
"Um……"
Su Feng nodded. "Just as Uncle Jiu said before, the church is located in the Three Killings position, an extremely yin place, and the place that has imprisoned Western demons for many years. Now that the church is destroyed and the statue of Jesus that was used to suppress them has also been broken, it means that the yin energy accumulated inside the church will be dispersed..."
"In this way, Jiuquan Town will become the first target of the Western devils..."
Su Feng only had a superficial understanding of the origins and abilities of this Western devil.
Unlike the demons and monsters native to the land, the Western demons are far more versatile in their abilities.
Moreover, in Western mythology, Satan is synonymous with the devil.
No matter how strange or ugly the thing is, it's all associated with Satan.
In terms of capabilities, it's a shared relationship...
It's like a mother connecting her troops, sharing her energy and power so that everyone can gain different abilities.
therefore.
Most of the spells we've practiced so far are ineffective in dealing with the Western demons.
but……
Is relying solely on holy water really effective?
Su Feng was also unable to answer this question.
The sage's manuscript is still some time away from being completed, so we should not act rashly in the meantime.
Even if you find the Western devil, if you don't have absolute confidence in killing it, it will only escape again.
It won't be easy to catch them again then.
"Young Master Su, should we go and discuss with Jiang Dalong and ask him to order the evacuation of the town's residents to ensure everything goes smoothly?" Uncle Jiu said worriedly.
“No.” Su Feng shook his head. “This matter has already caused quite a stir. If we suddenly order an evacuation, it might trigger a second wave of trouble… At that point, even Jiang Dalong’s status as a commander-in-chief might not be of any use.”
Therefore, we need a way to kill two birds with one stone, without alerting anyone, and at the same time eliminate the Western devil.
"What should we do then?" Uncle Nine scratched his head, looking troubled. "What happened tonight was just too chaotic."
Su Feng smiled helplessly and changed the subject. "Uncle Jiu, please calm down. I have some ideas about this matter, but now is not the time. Besides, it's almost dawn. The Western devils shouldn't be so rampant as to dare to cause trouble at this time."
Moreover, having been sealed away for so many years, this Western demon would need to find a safe enough place to replenish its magic power, and it certainly wouldn't easily reveal itself.
"While we have this time, I want Uncle Nine to go and find the whereabouts of the Dragon Slayer..."
When Su Feng told Uncle Nine about the dragon-slaying incident, Uncle Nine was slightly taken aback.
"Dragon Slayer... he's actually reached such a level?"
He was at the fifth level of Qi Refining, two minor realms higher than him.
It seems that after all these years since he came down the mountain, he may be the only one who has remained in the same place.
Su Feng smiled without saying a word.
The reason why his Dragon Slaying Realm improved so quickly is probably inseparable from evil magic.
Tu Long was familiar with terms like Corpse Refining Sect and Wuji, suggesting that there must be some connection between them.
Perhaps it was with Wuji's help that he was able to reach this level.
"Alright, I'll leave the rest to Uncle Jiu. Over the next two days, be as vigilant as possible about what happens in Jiuquan Town... That Western devil seems to have the ability to manipulate human bodies. Those four missionaries might have died because of this." Su Feng finished his hot tea and slowly stood up.
"I'll go back and prepare now. If there's any further news, you can find me at the inn where I'm staying."
After giving a few instructions, Su Feng left.
We must not rush into dealing with the Western devils.
As the saying goes, "Know yourself and know your enemy, and you will win every battle."
Facing this powerful devil from the West, if we don't have any intelligence or any trump cards to deal with it, something might go wrong.
Su Feng wouldn't easily make a move unless he was absolutely certain he could crush his opponent.
……
By the time I returned to my inn, it was already broad daylight.
After last night, Su Feng hadn't used up much spiritual energy, but his clothes were a bit dirty, so he needed to go back and change into a clean set.
The residents on the street were all talking about what happened last night.
Although this place is some distance from the church, and even if the collapse had no impact on this area, the news spread faster than a virus, and almost everyone living here knows about it now.
"Have you heard? The church in the West End was destroyed last night?"
"real or fake?!"
"Of course it's true, the news is absolutely reliable! I heard it's because Father Wu offended some Jesus, and then divine punishment came down, killing the missionaries below him, and then releasing several demons..."
"Hey, why is this different from the version I heard..."
Faced with all these conflicting opinions, Su Feng could only manage a wry smile.
There are a hundred different versions from a hundred different mouths; he's seen it all before.
I'd be grateful if these residents didn't cause any trouble.
I stretched and went up to the second floor of the inn.
As Su Feng passed through his room, he heard the laughter of the Chen Yue and Chen Xing sisters coming from the next room; it seemed they were already awake.
They seemed unaware of the commotion last night, given that the inn they were staying at was quite far away, and it was late at night; the two sisters were probably still fast asleep.
"Go and tell them."
Su Feng thought for a moment.
Uncle Jiu was still a little worried about handling this matter on his own.
If the Western devils really have any designs on Jiuquan Town, Chen Yue and Chen Xing's presence might actually play a significant role.
Just then, Su Feng pushed open the door.
"You two girls are up so early, come downstairs and eat..."
