Demon-killing Enlightenment

Near the north gate of Nanguan.

"Shit, Li Gan's ghost is dead, it's Li Gan from the Ghost Killing Gang!" someone screamed.

"What?! How is that possible?"

In an instant, the north gate was brightly lit, and everyone looked towards the wall where the ghost jade was hung.

"It's true, it's true, Li Gan's ghost has been shattered." Someone confirmed it again and again, and finally shouted out the result.

"Oh my god, Brother Liu has made a fortune this time!" Bao Zhuangjia also squeezed in the crowd and looked at the wall.

"Idiot, why are you shouting so loudly? Go report to the deputy leader." After confirming again and again, a leader of the Ghost-Slaying Gang told his men to return to the Ghost-Slaying Gang immediately to report the situation.

"Hey, what happened in the hunting forest? In the morning, groups of outsiders started dying, and in the afternoon, four pieces of ghost jade were shattered. Now Li Gan is dead."

"Haha, no matter what happened, I know that I made a fortune. In the life-and-death game I bet on in the dark market, two of the five outsiders died, hahaha." Some were surprised and some were worried.

The North Gate was originally very quiet at night, but because of Li Gan's death, the scene became very lively.

Guan Tong was long gone, and the top leaders of each sect had also gone back. Only a few gamblers who had placed bets on life and death and were waiting for the chosen contestants to die were left.

In addition, some soldiers from some sects are also here, ready to report the situation of the ghost jade on the wall at any time.

Soon, the Ghost-Slaying Gang arrived at the north gate in a mighty force.

The leader was not Xue Chang, but a man with a scar on his face, who seemed to be of high status.

Scarface walked to the wall and saw that there was nothing under Li Gan's name. He then looked down at the base of the wall, where there were already so many ghost jade fragments scattered around that he couldn't tell which ones belonged to Li Gan.

Wasn't the young leader with the deputy leader's eldest son? How could he be dead? Scarface wondered.

Obviously, this person has a high status in the Ghost-Slaying Gang and knows many secrets within the gang.

Scarface is in a dilemma now. The gang leader is still in seclusion to break through to the Qi Condensation Realm, and the deputy gang leader is in full charge of the gang affairs. But such a big thing has happened, should he report it to the gang leader?

At this time, a disciple of the Ghost Slayer Gang ran back. Scarface asked, "Have you seen the deputy gang leader?"

The disciple said, "Master, the deputy leader said he knows. It is normal for people to die in the hunting forest."

"What? He said it so easily?" Scarface was very angry.

If it weren't for the fact that the Ghost Slayer Gang wanted to have its own people in the military, Xue Chang, the deputy head of the military camp, would never have been able to become the deputy gang leader. The position of deputy gang leader was originally for Scarface.

You are so good, Xue Chang. You said nicely that if the two young masters join forces, they will definitely win the ghost sacrifice.

Now he is standing by and watching Li Gan's death. It turns out that he is not on the same page with us. Scarface was filled with indignation.

"Let's go and see the leader." Scarface gave an order and all the members of the Ghost Killing Gang left the north gate.

……

Deep in the hunting forest.

"Damn it Xue Hai, I was hiding so well, how could you find me? And you came up and killed me without saying a word, why don't you kill more ghosts if you have time."

A figure was running quickly in the hunting forest, looking back from time to time, as if avoiding something.

This person was Zhao Ziyang. He was running in the hunting forest in a very embarrassed manner, and he had been running away for six or seven hours, from dusk to late night, without stopping for a single step.

However, unlike the rumors Mu Yang had heard, Zhao Ziyang was not seriously injured. He only had one arm cut by Xue Hai unexpectedly.

After running all night, he bled a lot. If it weren't for his strength in the middle stage of the Qi realm, he would have died from excessive bleeding.

Even when Zhao Ziyang was injured and running, he was still very fast. After traveling abroad for so many years, his ability to escape had improved by leaps and bounds.

On Xue Hai's side, the jade token was given to Li Gan, so he could not track Zhao Ziyang from a long distance. He could only use all his strength to chase Zhao Ziyang relentlessly.

In this way, he fled and he chased, raising dust in the hunting forest.

……

Mu Yang took the jade token and injected spiritual energy into it. Soon, the jade token lit up red.

Looking up to confirm the direction, Mu Yang began to turn his body. The jade token could not distinguish between Ding Bai and Zhao Ziyang, so he could only try again and again.

Mu Yang took it and turned it around, and indeed found the directions in which the two jade plates were glowing.

One direction has remained unchanged, while the other direction has been changing, and at a fairly fast pace.

It seems this is the direction, Zhao Ziyang is escaping. Mu Yang determined the direction to move forward.

When they returned to the Soul Binding Formation, Lao Gui and the others had already finished the battle. The jade slip was on the ground. Mu Yang put it away and took another look to confirm that there was no space ring.

Without further delay, he chanted the "Xing" character as he pleased, and guided by the red light of the jade token, he flew rapidly towards the direction of Zhao Ziyang.

The fog in the hunting forest is still so thick that it is easy to get lost without clear markings.

The ghost jade has been taken away, and the jade slip has no function of indicating directions. If you get lost, the consequences will be disastrous.

I just wonder if those who died in previous ghost festivals got lost and became food for the ghosts.

Mu Yang didn't have time to think about these things. He looked at the red jade token that flickered on and off, and he had to change the direction of advance at any time.

Also pay attention to whether any ghosts flying by have any intention of attacking.

In this way, Mu Yang ran for four full hours. The fog in the hunting forest began to become whiter and whiter, and dawn was about to arrive.

Mu Yang stopped to confirm Zhao Ziyang's direction more and more frequently, which proved that he was getting closer and closer to Zhao Ziyang.

Mu Yang summoned the Red Soul and asked him to move forward quickly, while he observed the situation from behind.

He was unsure about Xue Hai's lineup. If he hired a lot of outsiders like Li Gan did, he would only hurt himself if he went there rashly.

Chi Hun was much faster, and soon he saw Xue Hai.

Mu Yang recognized Xue Hai with the help of Chi Hun's perspective and found that he was alone, so he felt relieved.

He let the Red Soul return and rushed forward at a rapid speed.

Finally, after running a long distance, Mu Yang stood between Xue Hai and Zhao Ziyang.

When Xue Hai saw someone trying to stop him, he immediately stopped and looked at the masked man in front of him with an unfriendly expression.

"My name is Xue Hai from the Xue Mansion. Why are you stopping me?" Xue Hai was quite polite and was not angry because the masked man let Zhao Ziyang escape.

Xue Hai was of course furious, seeing that he was about to catch up with Zhao Ziyang. If he was killed, the future development of the Silver Spear Sect would be affected, and it would be a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for the Xue family.

However, this is a hunting forest. If you want to survive, you must be humble and not act arrogantly towards everyone you meet. That would easily lead to your death.

Mu Yang remained unmoved and still pointed the knife at Xue Hai.

Xue Hai was very curious as to why this masked man was targeting him, but the next second, he thought of a reason.

Xue Hai raised his sword, pointed it at Mu Yang and said, "Did Xue Shan die in your hands?"

Before the ghost festival began, Xue Chang suspected that Liu Yang was the masked man who carried Ding Yi back to the city. Now, this masked man was obviously hostile to Xue Hai, so Xue Hai boldly asked.

Mu Yang nodded without hesitation.

"How brave!" Xue Hai shouted and rushed towards Mu Yang with his sword.
