My junior sister pretends to be good and deceives people every day
Chapter 14 Small fish eat shrimps, big fish eat small fish
When mentioning this, Yan Linghuan's expression showed a bit more disgust.
"This pill is extremely sinister and needs to be refined with the flesh and blood of a woman. Once the pill is made, it can enhance the spiritual power of the person who consumes it. The more you consume, the faster your spiritual power will grow."
With Yan Zhiqiao and Xiao Rushi as the breakthrough point, the righteous side is finally no longer a headless fly.
They followed the kidnapping clue and soon discovered that women were missing from many places.
Some people are orphans like Xiao Rushi, and no one cares even if they disappear.
Some of the women still have families, and they have sought help from the local city lord, but unfortunately they have not been found.
It was not until some cultivators went to investigate that they discovered that the number of women who had disappeared in the past two years was as high as thousands.
——The world of cultivation is so vast that if there are fewer of them in one place or another, it really won’t attract much attention.
Combined with what Xiao Rushi said about the Fang family using living people to make elixirs, Yan Linghuan also found the alchemy furnace and human bones that had not been dealt with yet, and the bloody truth was laid out before everyone.
It turns out that all the families that were exterminated were not randomly selected.
At the same time, the culprit of the family massacre was also identified.
It's the bone demon clan.
This clan is very low-key in the demon world. In the past hundred years, no matter how much friction there has been between the cultivation world and the demon world, they have never appeared.
Now that there has been such a sudden big move, the cultivation world is on guard, but also very curious about their purpose.
Why were the hearts of all the slaves dug out, while the master and other key figures disappeared?
They checked and found that although those people had made some breakthroughs after taking the Blood-Attracting Pill, the strongest one was only in the late Nascent Soul stage.
If the demons want to increase their strength by devouring the spiritual energy of cultivators, shouldn’t they look for those who are more powerful?
Or do they have other purposes?
Yan Linghuan explained the general situation and sounded a little depressed at the end.
"What on earth do these demons want to do?"
Yan Zhiqiao picked up the teacup and took a sip of tea.
"I have an idea."
After she finished speaking, the five of them looked at her in unison.
Xi Shili couldn't wait any longer: "What's your idea?"
Facing their burning gazes, Yan Zhiqiao calmly put down the teacup.
"They use women to refine the Blood Attracting Pill. Is it possible that those who have taken the Blood Attracting Pill will also be captured by the Bone Demon to refine the pill?"
It's like small fish eat shrimps and big fish eat small fish.
Several people were stunned, and then heard Yan Zhiqiao explain why she thought so.
"Second Senior Sister just said that all the families that were exterminated had eaten the Blood Attracting Pill. Apart from this, there shouldn't be any innocent families that were exterminated, right?"
"Junior sister, what you said makes sense!"
Yan Linghuan nodded suddenly, and the balance in her heart gradually tilted towards Yan Zhiqiao's guess.
Gu Qingyan pondered, looking as if he was thinking about something.
In recent days, he, his master, and the elders have discussed countless possibilities, but unfortunately there is no solid evidence.
Although Zhiqiao's guess was a bit bizarre, it was not without reason.
——Sometimes the most unlikely thing is often the most likely truth.
But no matter how much we think about it, we cannot jump to conclusion at the moment.
Seeing everyone frowning, Yan Zhiqiao suddenly asked again.
"Have you ever thought about why they chose to act so recently? Even though they have been discovered by the righteous, they still dare to take the risk and commit the crime?"
When this question came up, several people couldn't help but frown even deeper.
Jiang Ciyuan, who had been silent, seemed to have thought of something. He suddenly looked up, and his deep eyes met Yan Zhiqiao's clear gaze.
"time."
Yan Zhiqiao raised his eyebrows slightly, he didn't expect Jiang Ciyuan to react so quickly.
"Yes, it's time."
"It has been almost two years since the first women were kidnapped, which means some people may have taken the blood-attracting pills for two years."
"If this is the first requirement of the Bone Demon for them to make pills, it can explain why they dare to take such a big risk."
Xi Shili suddenly became enlightened, and his serious look made people completely ignore his immature appearance.
"If your guess is correct, then we can start from two years ago and see if there was any special situation that allowed them to obtain the formula for the Blood Attracting Pill at almost the same time. Maybe we can use this to find other families."
Yan Zhiqiao nodded: "There is also a faster way, let them admit it voluntarily."
When this was mentioned, Xi Shili's expression became somewhat sarcastic.
"After confirming that the families that were exterminated had all used women to refine the Blood Attracting Pill, Shengqing Sect made the matter public, but no family dared to stand up."
Nowadays, everyone in the world of cultivation is in danger, and the supervision of each city has been greatly increased.
Some people will inevitably be optimistic and think that the Bone Demon Clan will temporarily hide from the limelight and dare not attack them again.
If they come forward and admit that they have taken the Blood-Attracting Pill at this time, what awaits them is disgrace, as well as judgment and punishment from the great sect.
Since they dare to do such dirty things, they will inevitably not dare to develop a gambler mentality again.
Yan Zhiqiao was silent, feeling a little annoyed.
"Then let's not look for them, but directly look for the culprit and force the list out of the Bone Demon Clan."
"I guess the recipe for the Blood Attracting Pill is what they gave to this group of people."
Faced with Yan Zhiqiao's simple and crude words, Gu Qingyan did not think her idea was too naive and explained.
"The Bone Demon Clan lives deep in the Demon Realm and has not come out for many years. We don't know what their internal situation is like, so we can't act rashly."
"Moreover, the Demon Realm and the Cultivation Realm are separated by a barrier, and there are also regulations that state that neither side is allowed to enter the other's territory without permission. Anyone who violates this rule will be killed on the spot."
Upon hearing this, Yan Zhiqiao unconsciously tapped the table with his white fingertips.
"Can't we send someone to secretly go to the demon world to investigate? If we have to wait until they make a move next time, it would be too passive."
How could the powerful people in the world of cultivation not think of what Yan Zhiqiao could think of?
Then Gu Qingyan said, "Master has discussed with the leaders of the other four sects. This time, Shengqing Sect will send disciples to investigate the Demon Realm, and the remaining four sects will send disciples to patrol various cities. Before there are any results, try to find clues first and ensure the safety of everyone."
The largest sect in the world is the Shengqing Sect, the Lingxiao Sect ranks second, the Xiaoyao Sect ranks third, and the Qixing Sect and Tianji Sect rank fourth and fifth respectively.
These five sects are very powerful and have many disciples, each of whom protects the people in their respective areas.
With them on board, the risk should be greatly reduced.
It's a pity that the bone demon used some unknown method to create a barrier that could completely block out the outside world.
Except for the incident with the Fang family, all other times when everyone arrived, there were only corpses left on the ground.
Therefore, before the disciples of Shengqing Sect found out the results, everyone was trying to know the Bone Demon's next move.
After Yan Zhiqiao heard this, there was a hint of silence in his bright deer eyes.
"If patrols were useful, would there still be so many massacres of families?"
Gu Qingyan: "..."
