Demon-killing Enlightenment

Mu Yang nodded slightly as he listened to Ding Qing's words.

Ding Yi's comrades all had serious expressions and stood tall, which made them look out of place compared to the majority of the Ghost Slayers.

Only the fat man in the middle of the team jumped up and down, grinning and squinting, looking out through the gaps in the military team, as if he had never seen so many people gathered together to go out of the city to kill ghosts.

Finally, the north gate opened and the Ghost Slayers filed in. The noisy crowd suddenly quieted down.

The people from the Xue Mansion also walked in, followed by disciples from other sects, followed by Ding Yi and his group, and the other ghost hunters came last.

Mu Yang entered the hunting forest without rushing to look at the marks left by Ding Yi. It would seem more natural to take some time.

Hunting forest.

Most people are very familiar with the area near Nanguan. They live by the mountains and by the water. Backed by the hunting forest, near Nanguan, you can live by the hunting forest.

As we all know, the hunting forest is divided into four levels, and the higher the level of ghosts you encounter, the deeper you go.

Most of the people wandering around in the first and second outer layers are resentful souls, and occasionally you can see traces of vengeful spirits.

The third and fourth floors are the world of vengeful spirits.

According to legend, there is a ghost close to the intelligent ghost king in the fourth layer. Few people near Nanguan dare to go to the fourth layer.

The reason why Mu Yang got lost was that he walked to the dividing area between the first and second floors, and the terrain and trees were changing.

Ugh!

Mu Yang sighed in his heart. He only recently learned the specific situation of the hunting forest. The place where Ding Qing was being chased was near the dividing line between the first and second levels of the hunting forest.

I had entered the hunting forest without even knowing it, so it would be a problem if I didn't get lost.

After walking aimlessly in the hunting forest for a while, Mu Yang began to pay attention to Ding Yi's marks.

Mu Yang found the marks left by Ding Yi on the trunks of some inconspicuous small trees. He did not linger any longer and chased after him at full speed.

After half an hour of chasing, Mu Yang saw the latest mark left by Ding Yi.

Mu Yang deliberately rubbed his clothes against the branches and trunks a few times, making it look like he was running away in a hurry and in a mess.

Then he ran a few steps forward.

"Who?!"

Ding Yi asked knowingly and shouted in Mu Yang's direction.

Mu Yang gradually saw Ding Yi's figure, and also the figures of a dozen other people. They were staring at Mu Yang nervously, fearing that he would do something dangerous.

Mu Yang put on a full show, and when he saw Ding Yi he grabbed him and bent over, gasping for breath.

He panted for a minute before looking up at Ding Yi.

"Friends, friends, friends. It's great to meet you. Our team was separated by evil spirits. Can you take me with you? Let's go to the hunting forest."

When Ding Yi heard this, he deliberately looked back and asked the deputy captain's opinion with his eyes.

"Hmph! A lone ghost hunter, who knows what your intentions are, leave quickly." A man who seemed to be the leader of this team said coldly.

Mu Yang pretended not to know and asked, "Huh? Aren't you also ghost hunters? We are all the same. Don't be so ruthless. I won't affect your killing of ghosts. Besides, I am also a master of the Awakening Qi Realm. I will not be useless."

Just as the team leader was about to attack again, the fat man standing next to him said, "Haha, this friend is right, we are also ghost hunters, more people means more strength, just join us."

After saying that, he continued walking forward without waiting for the team leader to say anything else.

Ding Yi and Mu Yang naturally followed at the end of the team.

Ding Yi whispered in Mu Yang's ear, "The one who won't let you join is Xue Chang, the deputy captain, the highest-ranking officer in the Xue family's military. The fat guy is Shen Liang, the initiator of this operation, and we are all bodyguards. The sons of the commander-in-chief of the Nanli Dynasty."

Mu Yang nodded silently and listened to Ding Yi introduce these dozen people one by one.

Just as Ding Qing said, there are ten captains, three lieutenants and one deputy captain.

Their goal this time was to hunt in the depths of the second level of the forest and kill a few resentful spirits. It would be best if they could kill one, and have Shen Liang kill it to deepen the color of his ghost jade.

Listening to Ding Yi's words, Mu Yang looked at Shen Liang in front of the team. He also had a ghost jade on his waist, but it was a light yellow color. It seemed that this young man didn't usually take action himself, and his strength was not that good either.

However, Xue Chang, who was standing beside him, had a piece of yellow and orange ghost jade on his waist.

The late stage of the present Qi realm.

Mu Yang roughly guessed Xue Chang's strength in his heart.

The military doesn't kill ghosts very often, so ghost jade basically represents a person's personal strength.

Looking at the brand new white jade on his waist, Mu Yang was speechless.

No wonder Xue Chang was unwilling to let himself join, the White Jade novice was really of no value.

A dozen people walked very fast. Xue Chang obviously knew the route. The team did not take any detours in the hunting forest and walked straight.

After walking for two hours, Shen Liang didn't want to walk any further and insisted on resting for a while.

"What's wrong with ghosts? There are so many of us, we are not afraid of the Ghost Dynasty." Shen Liang's voice was very loud, obviously directed at Xue Chang, telling him that he, Shen Liang, was the boss of this team.

Xue Chang did not refute any more and gestured for everyone to rest where they were.

More than ten people formed a circle, put Shen Liang in the middle, and Xue Chang walked back and forth in the circle.

Mu Yang and Ding Yi sat together, chatting about random things, pretending that they had just met.

At this time, a man with an excited face exchanged seats with the captain next to Ding Yi and sat next to Ding Yi and Mu Yang.

"Hehe, Lao Ding, Captain Xue is really particular. He just gave him a dagger for evaluating my rank, and I became the deputy captain directly."

Mu Yang looked at the person who was speaking. Ding Yi introduced him as Cao Ban. But he was wearing a mask and could not reveal his true identity.

The person who spoke was of course Cao Ban. He gave the Liu family dagger to Xue Chang in exchange for a position as deputy captain, and Xue Chang made an exception and let him participate in the operation as deputy captain.

"Old Ding, I heard that you brought the brother and sister to your Ding Mansion. He didn't pursue the matter of the knife, right?" Cao Ban asked.

Ding Yi didn't look at Cao Ban, but just shook his head.

"Hehe, that kid is sensible. If he dares to make trouble, I will arrest him for disturbing the order of the military camp." Cao Ban said with a proud look on his face.

Mu Yang understood that it was not Ding Yi who took the knife, but he had been taking the blame for Cao Ban. Xue Chang would definitely not return the knife, so Ding Yi did not mention Cao Ban.

But Cao Ban did not appreciate it, and was even complacent about his own cleverness and wisdom.

Mu Yang looked at Xue Chang in front of him, thinking about how to get the dagger back. The military chief really didn't have any good ideas.

When Mu Yang looked at Xue Chang, this guy also took a look around and sat down. He raised his hand, and the Liu family dagger appeared in his hand, and then he began to wipe it lovingly.

"Oh, wow. Look at Lao Ding, it's great to have a space ring. Not only is it beautiful, but it can also hold a lot of things. Unlike our storage bag, which is full of just a few spirit stones and some sundries." Cao Ban said with envy.

Space ring?

Mu Yang also looked at Xue Chang's right hand, and there was indeed a ring on his hand.
