Chapter 257 Tiger poison and food
"It seems that these two people's cultivation of demonic skills has changed their character, or they are not good people in the first place."
Dongfang Bai exclaimed.
Qiao Feng nodded: "No matter what the reason is, it seems that Jingcheng has been operating like this for many years without being known by the Divine Capital. These two people are the key.
"It's Xu Qingye who is too naive."
The two men got off the roof and walked towards an inn with the pony.
I left the City Lord's Mansion just to see what the Xu Huairen brothers were going to do. Now that the Black Hawk behind them had been killed by me, were they going to continue to keep thousands of people in Jingcheng captive like this?
But unexpectedly, they attacked the servants in the mansion first.
The murderous aura they revealed when they were arresting people was not just the same as when they met.
Qiao Feng fell into deep thought.
Wu Zhao told herself that there were many demons in this area, but after arriving, she found that the place had been secretly occupied by demons.
I guess when Xu Huairen reported to Shendu, he only said that Jingcheng was invaded by demons, but he didn't say that the demons directly colonized Jingcheng.
Otherwise, even if any expert from the Saint Realm came to investigate, it wouldn't have been like this.
This also overturned Qiao Feng's previous speculation that Wu Zhao might not have not wanted to get involved, but was not clear about the specific situation.
From the city lord Xu Qingye, Qiao Feng and his companions also learned that there were many cities like Jingcheng.
A few hundred miles northwest of here they reached the territory of the Qin Dynasty.
Because this area of a thousand miles is basically the border between the three forces of the Supreme Alliance, Great Qin and the Great Zhou.
Further northwest is the border between Daqin and Tianxiahui.
Under such circumstances, these cities on the border may have been secretly invaded by demons.
However, Jingcheng's luck was bad as he encountered a powerful demon like Black Hawk. Ordinary masters in the holy realm were no match for it.
According to Xu Huairen, its name is Black Eagle.
But Xuanying himself said that its strength in the Yinyue Dynasty is quite good, but its status is average.
This is also the fundamental reason why it came out secretly and used evil methods to improve its strength.
"Brother Feng, should we take care of it?"
Dongfang Bai asked.
Because after those two old men blatantly arrested so many people, they obviously had no intention of releasing those who were arrested.
"Let's wait and see what Xu Qingye chooses."
Qiao Feng said calmly, without much emotion.
It seems that Xu Qingye has no idea what his father and second uncle have done.
No wonder he looks so naive, as if he has never been involved in the world of martial arts.
And Xu Qingye has a strong sense of justice.
However, Xu Qingye was injured by a slap and was subsequently confined to his home.
As the two were discussing this, there was a knock on the door.
Qiao Feng raised his eyebrows.
When he heard the sound of breathing approaching just now, he thought it was a guest of the inn passing by or something, but he didn't expect that they were looking for them.
"Please come in."
Qiao Feng responded.
A young man outside looked around, opened the door, walked in, and quickly closed the door.
"Who are you?"
Qiao Feng asked.
"My two heroes, I am the city lord's man."
The boy explained quickly.
Qiao Feng was surprised and asked, "Oh? What do you want from us?"
"Master Qiao, the city lord asked me to deliver this letter to you."
As he spoke, the young man pulled out a crumpled piece of paper from his sleeve and handed it to Qiao Feng.
Qiao Feng took it, opened it, and smiled.
He handed the note to Dongfang Bai.
After reading it, Dongfang Bai couldn't help but say, "It seems that he is not as stupid as he looks."
"It's a pity that I'm not strong enough." Qiao Feng said.
"I got it. Anything else?"
The young man shook his head: "No more, the city lord asked me to give the note to you two."
After saying this, he was about to leave, but after a pause, he turned around and looked at Qiao Feng and the other person.
"Two heroes, can I ask you to save our city lord?"
The boy lowered his head and spoke seriously.
Qiao Feng asked: "Why?"
"The city lord is a good man and treats us very well, but the old city lord and the sect leader have locked the city lord up. It seems that they want to force the city lord to practice some magic. It is definitely not a good magic."
After the young man finished speaking, he looked at Qiao Feng and the other man expectantly.
Qiao Feng nodded when he heard this, "Okay, I understand. You should go back first and don't let yourself be discovered. I will go to the City Lord's Mansion to check again."
The young man was overjoyed and bowed to the two of them quickly.
Then he ran away with a smile on his face.
Dongfang Bai looked at Qiao Feng.
"So when do we act?"
"nighttime then."
"it is good."
Late at night, in the dungeon of the City Lord's Mansion.
"Dad, why?"
Xu Huairen frowned at his son who was questioning him, and said, "Even if you practice martial arts for another fifty years, your talent will not be as good as others in ten years. You might as well practice this method to devour souls and quickly improve your strength. Don't you want to become a famous hero in the martial arts world? This is your chance."
"But this is a witchcraft."
"Asshole, what's wrong with magic? It's good enough if magic can improve our strength. If you don't go out and tell others, who would know that we use magic to improve our strength?"
Xu Huaide yelled and cursed from the side.
Then he picked up a trembling maid and threw her in front of Xu Qingye.
"Kill her and use the spell I taught you to absorb her soul."
To the servants imprisoned nearby, these commanding words were like the devil's death warrant.
"City, City Lord, please don't."
The maid begged for mercy with trembling lips.
Xu Qingye sighed and said, "Dad, Second Uncle, please don't force me. I can't do this. If we do this, we will all become monsters in the end, even worse than demons."
"We have been practicing for more than ten years, and we are all fine. The lives of beggars and servants are cheap to begin with. If we secretly absorb the drugs, no one will find out."
"No, I can't become a monster." Xu Qingye insisted on refusing.
Snapped……
A slap mark appeared clearly on Xu Qingye's face.
"Either you never leave the sect in your life, go back to the back of the sect and face the wall, and come out when you wake up."
After saying that, Xu Huairen grabbed the maid's head and used his magic. However, in the blink of an eye, the maid's face became dry and looked like a mummy.
Xu Huaide also sneered, grabbed a servant from the cell next to him, and ended the servant's life with the same method while he was crying and howling.
"You, you guys, how can you do this? How are you different from demons?"
Xu Qingye stared at the two of them with his eyes wide open, as if he had not expected them to do this.
"In the martial arts world, strength is king. What's the use of having a chivalrous heart without strength? Can you swallow up any demon like you? Or do you not have the strength to stop injustice when you encounter it?"
Xu Qingye's eyes were bloodshot as he stared at the two of them, as if he wanted to see them clearly, to see that they were not the two elders he knew.
"Qingye, watch carefully, my uncle will show you again."
Xu Huaide grabbed another maid and prepared to take action.
boom……
There was a loud bang not far away, and it turned out that the dungeon door was violently blown open.
Two figures walked slowly towards them and caught Xu Qingye's eyes, which filled his face with surprise.
"Master Qiao, it's you, hurry up and save them, they are all innocent."
Upon hearing this, Xu Huairen and Xu Huaide looked at Xu Qingye at the same time, with murderous intent in their eyes.
"Dad, Second Uncle, please stop killing people and turn back."
Xu Qingye was not afraid at all, instead he spoke out to persuade him.
Xu Huaide sneered, "It's too late. You are a traitor. It seems you are hopeless. Brother, give us another child."
As he spoke, he struck Xu Qingye on the forehead with his palm.
