The captain of the guards stationed at the entrance to the Demon Realm saw Wei Changgeng appear and hurried forward to salute.

"Master, you finally came out."

Wei Changgeng noticed that the visitor sounded anxious, so he asked, "What's wrong?"

"Master, the people we sent out to look for other exits of the Demon Realm encountered a formation when they entered the valley to investigate, and they were unable to move forward. However, on the other side of the formation, it seemed that some sounds of fighting were heard."

Wei Changgeng remembered that Luo Qingran once said that the Wen family sent people to mine the Lingshi mine and set up a formation there. But why was there a sound of fighting when mining the Lingshi mine? Could it be that someone wanted to rob the Lingshi mine?

However, he remembered that Ranran had once entered the depths of the valley, so he thought that she should have a way to pass through that formation.

Wei Changgeng nodded and said, "Okay, I understand. Is there anything else?"

The chief guard replied: "We have nothing to do here."

Indeed, we are only guarding the entrance to the Demon Realm, and there is not much we can know.

After Wei Changgeng left, he went directly to the Youshan Valley. When he reached the outskirts of the Youshan Valley, Luo Qingran also left the space and stood beside Wei Changgeng.

"Why did you come here just after you came out? Is there something wrong?" Luo Qingran asked.

During this period of time, she has been reading the mainland information left by Wei You, which records many things that happened in ancient times.

"You should be able to get through the large formation that the Wen family set up in the valley. My people just said that there seemed to be fighting sounds on the other side of the formation. Let's go over and take a look."

The two of them walked and rushed towards the depths of the valley.

Luo Qingran said, "Fighting sounds? The formation used by the Wen family is a killing formation created by the Song family. It is impossible to break out without the strength of the intermediate heavenly rank or above. Even Fu Yuxin and so many masters of the Fu family were killed, and no one escaped."

"Fu Yuxin? How did you know?" Wei Changgeng asked.

"Oh, that's when I went deep into the mountain to look for herbs. I saw them at the formation. I later burned all the corpses."

"It's true, people die for money and birds die for food!"

After that, the two stopped talking and went towards the depths from the tree top.

By the time they arrived at the location of the formation, the sun had just risen overhead.

"You go back to the space first. I have the Song family's jade pendant given to me by my master. It can ignore the Song family's formations." Luo Qingran said to Wei Changgeng who was standing beside him.

"No, let's go together. As long as anyone stands with you, you can take the Song family's jade pendant with you."

Luo Qingran took the jade token with no patterns on its surface from the space and hung it around her waist, then walked in hand in hand with Wei Changgeng.

Unexpectedly, not long after entering the formation, I saw a lot of corpses on the ground. Judging from the styles of the clothes on these people, they almost covered people from all the aristocratic families on the continent.

"Haha, the people who came here are quite complete. Even the Nangong family and the Fire God Sect have sent people." Luo Qingran lowered his head and looked while walking past their bodies, afraid of stepping on something, which would be disgusting.

"There are limited spiritual stone veins on the continent, and most of them are already owned. Now that a spiritual vein has been exposed, naturally every family is interested in it. However, these people are just sent to explore the way."

The two walked for about a quarter of an hour before they passed through the formation and arrived at the location of the spiritual stone vein. As expected, there were still corpses all over the ground, most of them were members of the Wen family.

Those who were sent to mine the spiritual stone mines were definitely not important figures, or they were simply side branches of the family. But Luo Qingran remembered that there were also the Wen family head's younger brother Wen Ruoli and an elder from the outer courtyard guarding here.

Luo Qingran quickened his pace and walked towards the tent where Wen Ruoli was originally. The tent was now broken, with only one support frame left.

However, there was no corpse or blood on the ground inside the tent.

She walked towards the entrance of the spirit stone mine, where there were even more corpses, all of whom were wearing the unique clothing of the Wen family.

"How could this happen?" Luo Qingran walked and looked, and suddenly, she saw a person in a blue gown lying on his back on the ground not far away. Luo Qingran ran over and saw that it was indeed Elder Wen from the outer courtyard.

Luo Qingran reached out and touched him gently. He was already dead. His blue gown was mostly stained with dark red blood, and there was a wound on his chest, which looked like a fatal wound.

At this time, Wei Changgeng had already checked the Spirit Stone Mine and walked out. "All the people from the Wen family who were mining for Spirit Stones are dead, and the mine has been completely mined. There is nothing left."

"The last time I came here to deliver the antidote, Wen Ruoli from the Wen family was still here, but I didn't find his body here. Either he went back early, or..."

He was the one who did it.

But she didn't go on.

Wei Changgeng shook his head and said, "The Wen family has always been famous for its unity. Even if Wen Ruoli wanted to be the head of the family, he would not attack his own family members. Moreover, looking at the wounds of these people, they are all sword wounds, not caused by combat skills."

"All sword wounds?"

If outsiders heard this, they would quickly associate it with the Wanjian Sect.

"Is this a frame-up?" Luo Qingran was not familiar with the swordsmanship of the Wanjian Sect, but when she thought of Luo Wuxin, who was a daughter-slave, she couldn't believe that he did it.

Suddenly, Wei Changgeng took Luo Qingran's hand and flashed into space. At the same time, the formation behind them had been removed, and a group of people rushed in.

When they saw the bodies of the Wen family members all over the ground, they were stunned!

When Luo Qingran came to his senses and looked outside through the space, he found that except for a few leaders, all the other people who rushed in were wearing the uniform of the Wen family.

Luo Qingran recognized one of the leaders, Wen Ruize from the Wen family. The man standing next to him, whose hair was already a little gray, looked 50% like Wen Ruize, so he must be Wen Ruoting, the head of the Wen family.

Wei Changgeng also saw the appearance of the person who came, and the expression on his face became extremely cold.

"What, what is going on? Who did it?" Wen Ruoting was looking at the bodies of these young men, his face full of heartache and anger.

The others who came along were all looking for people they once knew. For a moment, the valley was filled with grief and indignation.

There was only one person who stood out from the crowd. He did not lower his head to see if there were any living people, but looked around as if he was looking for something.

This person is Wen Ruize.

Luo Qingran nudged Wei Changgeng next to him with his elbow and said, "Hey, what do you think Wen Ruize is looking for?"

"Hmph, of course you're looking for us!" Wei Changgeng looked at Wen Ruize with cold murderous eyes.

"We just came out of the Demon Realm. Who could know our whereabouts? Moreover, how could they get here so quickly in such a short time?"

"Silly Ranran, don't you know there is a talisman called a teleportation talisman? Moreover, I suspect someone has been following us since before we entered the Demon Realm."

Luo Qingran took a deep breath, "No way, this Wen Ruize is crazy, in order to prevent me from returning to the Wen family, he thought of framing me and even went so far as to kill his own people?"

Wei Changgeng sneered: "This may be just one of the reasons. Didn't you see that all the spirit stones are gone?"

"What do you mean? Besides, Wen Ruize is the eldest son of the Wen family and has no shortage of cultivation resources. Moreover, he is the vice president of the Alchemist Association. What does he need so many spirit stones for? Does their family have a throne that needs him to inherit?"

Luo Qingran just didn't understand. These people were so cold-blooded that it was frightening.

"Oh no, what if they suspect the Ten Thousand Swords Sect?" Luo Qingran thought of the sword wounds on the corpses.

"Don't worry. Even if they suspect the Wanjian Sect, with the strength of the Wanjian Sect, a conflict will not easily occur."

Luo Qingran could tell from Wei Changgeng's voice that he was also worried. After all, the Wanjian Sect was also Wei Changgeng's former sect.

Yes, Wei Changgeng also came from the Wanjian Sect and his swordsmanship was outstanding. If Wei Changgeng hadn't brought her into the space just now, I'm afraid Wei Changgeng would not be able to escape this matter.

Could it be that Wen Ruize’s target this time is not only her, but also him.

He clearly knew that he was Song Xi's disciple, but he still did this. Did he want to create a rift in the relationship between the Wen and Song families?

Luo Qingran looked at Wei Changgeng worriedly, "If it was Wen Ruize who sent people to follow us, then he must know that we have entered the Demon Realm. Will he frame us and make a fuss about this?"

If Wen Ruize really spread the news that the two of them had connections with the Demon Realm, then Wei Changgeng's reputation as the honorary dean of Tianxuan College would probably be ruined.

By then, the Galao Auction House under his control would probably be ostracized, and the two of them would probably become rats crossing the street.
