Chapter 338 Danshan
Huanglongfu City, Taoxiangju.

"Xiaobai, it's time for you to get on the road."

"No hurry, I'll stay a few more days. Brother Bai, I learned a new move last night, why don't we have a competition."

"You haven't paid your rent yet."

“It’s all little details.”

"I am the owner of this restaurant."

"."

Bai Yuan felt a headache when he saw Yue Xiaobai, who had been staying in Taoxiangju.

Yue Xiaobai did not go out of the city to look for the whereabouts of the demon like Qian Yu and others did, but stayed in the city. Apart from competing with him in martial arts every day, he practiced martial arts and his martial arts obsession was maxed out.

Yue Xiaobai was a little dissatisfied when he heard that Bai Yuan wanted to collect room fee.

"Tell me how much it is."

"Not much, I'll give you one thousand taels."

"Black shop!"

Yue Xiaobai was furious and a little embarrassed.

It’s not that he couldn’t afford the one thousand taels, but he only brought some change with him when he went out.

Different from other martial artists, he is devoted to sword training and does not have great material needs. Carrying too much money would only be a burden.

Bai Yuan sneered: "No credit."

Yue Xiaobai pursed his lips.

He is a martial arts fanatic, but not an idiot. He would certainly not do something like refusing to pay a debt, but if you ask him to take the money, he really can't do it.

"Tell me, what do you want me to do?"

He has practiced sword for decades and has long been proficient in swordsmanship, and is able to see through people's hearts. It is obvious that Bai Yuan is impressed by his ability.

Bai Yuan chuckled: "Xiaobai, you are really straightforward."

He has been accompanying her these days, eating, drinking and sleeping, which literally means he has spent a lot of energy on it and he cannot get it back.

"Accompany me to Danshan Prefecture."

"it is good."

Yue Xiaobai didn't even ask why he was going to Danshan Prefecture, and he agreed immediately.

Bai Yuan was even more satisfied.

It turned out that the escort service during this period was not in vain.

This morning, I received news from Qian Yu that they had indeed discovered some abnormalities in Danshan Prefecture.

Qian Yu and others were a little unsure, so they asked Bai Yuan for support.

Since this involves the demon species, we must be extremely cautious.

Although it was just an investigation, the more experts the better. He didn't intend to let go of Yue Xiaobai, a high-end fighter.

After getting Yue Xiaobai's affirmation, Bai Yuan immediately led his men out of the city.

Danshan Prefecture is one of the prefectures in Lingzhou and is not very famous.

It is neither as big as the Shenfu Sect like the Huanglong Mansion, nor does it have the resources like the Jingyang Mansion.

In short, it's mediocre.

Bai Yuan traveled lightly, and with Yue Xiaobai there were only five of them.

The five of them were all riding top-quality demon horses, so they were naturally fast, and they arrived at Danshan Prefecture that night.

The location that Qian Yu agreed to meet was in a county town called Fengxian in Danshan Prefecture.

"Master Bai."

Qian Yu bowed when he saw Bai Yuan appear.

With him were three other people, all of whom were from the Central Plains who were the first to challenge Bai Yuan.

Bai Yuan: "Teacher Qian, everyone, thank you for your hard work."

"What on earth is going on here?"

Qian Yu plus three great masters of Zhiganguan, this lineup is already top-notch, and even some states in the northern border do not have such a configuration.

A problem that even the four of them cannot solve must be extraordinary.

Qian Yu: "We happened to pass by this city and heard that several girls had gone missing in the city in recent days. Zhang Xiong went into the city to investigate, but he also disappeared. There is no clue at all."

Bai Yuan lowered his eyes.

Where the demons appear, there must be something strange. That is why Qian Yu and others are investigating the case of the missing girl.

Zhang Xiong should be the Central Plains person who came with them.

Those who dare to challenge Bai Yuan are at least masters of perception. It is really unbelievable that they disappeared in a small county town.

Qian Yu hesitated: "Could this be Xiyue's brother Yue?"

As he spoke, he looked at the handsome man next to Bai Yuan.

Yue Xiaobai has always been known for his arrogance, so naturally he would not give Qian Yu an answer.

"That's right, Brother Yue came with me this time to investigate the matter of Fengcheng."

Bai Yuan had no choice but to answer for Yue Xiaobai.

After spending several days together, he found that Yue Xiaobai was actually a pretty good person. The reason why people felt that they should stay away from him was because Yue Xiaobai spent most of his energy on comprehending the sword intent.

Unlike other swordsmen, Yue Xiaobai can also feel the sword intent when eating, drinking water, and walking, so he is reluctant to talk much unless he feels it is necessary.

Just like now, Yue Xiaobai thought it was nonsense and would delay his sword practice, so naturally he would not answer.

Upon hearing Bai Yuan's confirmation, Qian Yu and the others were shocked.

Bai Yuan's reputation is also great, but it is limited to the northern border.

They are all martial artists from the Central Plains and do not feel this deeply, which is why so many people went north to challenge.

But Yue Xiaobai is different.

The reputation of Xiyue Divine Sword was earned by defeating more than a hundred major sects in the Central Plains.

Yue Xiaobai's fame is no less than those on the Hidden Dragon List.

They didn't expect that Yue Xiaobai, the top talent of the younger generation in Xuanyang, would come to challenge Bai Yuan and even become Bai Yuan's thug.

Bai Yuan groaned.

"I'm going to the government office first."

"General Zhou, thank you for your help."

An old man with white hair and beard bowed to Zhou Lin.

Lingzhou Demon Slayer General Zhou Lin returned the greeting: "Sir Xiao, this is my duty."

The Demon-Slaying Guards are responsible for handling all demonic disturbances in a state.

Yesterday, Zhou Lin received a message from the Danshan prefect, hoping that the Lingzhou Demon Slayer Guards could assist the government in handling the missing persons case.

According to this Lord Xiao.

The disappearance case has been going on for more than a month.

Those who disappeared before were just beggars, so no one cared.

Later, some decent women disappeared, which attracted the attention of the Danshan Police Station. However, after an investigation, not only was the murderer not caught, but several constables of the police station also disappeared.

It was only then that the government realized that something was wrong.

The police station immediately called in the Demon-Slaying Guards to investigate together.

But after half a month of investigation, there is still no clue.

In recent days, a daughter of a prominent Danshan family went missing, and the matter was reported to the prefect Xiao Ke.

When Xiao Ke found out about it, he was also shocked.

Only then did he write a letter asking for help from the Lingzhou Demon-Slaying Guards.

Since the establishment of the Shuofang Jiedushi, almost all the officials in Lingzhou had been replaced. It was at that time that the prefect Xiao came to Danshan.

Xiao Ke is now over 130 years old. Even if his life span is 200 years, his blood and energy have already shown signs of withering.

If he had not come to Lingzhou, he would never have had the chance to become a fifth-rank prefect in his lifetime.

When something happened in Gu Danshan, the first thing he did was to call for help instead of going to investigate in person.

"Master Xiao, do you have a list of missing persons?"

Zhou Lin has dealt with too many strange things like this and is already familiar with the case handling process.

Solving a case is nothing more than carefully collecting evidence and making bold assumptions.

The murderer only targeted women, especially young girls in their teens. There must be a deeper meaning behind this, or he might just be a sex maniac.

Soon, an officer from the police station handed the list to Zhou Lin.

Zhou Lin looked at the list and frowned.

"Why are they all yin moons?"
