The Fang family is well-known in Qinghe City because of their charity.

Its head, Fang Yuan, is a cultivator in the late Jindan stage, about to enter the Yuanying stage.

Madam Cheng Niang is in the middle stage of the Golden Elixir.

The couple's child Fang Qi is in the late stage of foundation building and is about to enter the golden elixir stage.

Thousands of years ago, the spiritual energy in the world of cultivation began to decline due to some unknown reasons.

In the next thousand years, it became difficult for ordinary people to even practice cultivation, let alone ascend to the upper realms.

Except for the aristocratic families and sects of cultivators, ordinary cultivators almost all remain in the Foundation Establishment Stage, and very few can break through to the Golden Core Stage.

Although the Fang family is a noble family, it has been in decline for a long time.

The talented people in the clan were dwindling, and their qualifications were even more uneven, but without exception, none of them were able to break through the Jindan stage.

Until a year ago, the Fang couple suddenly broke through to the Golden Core stage, received attention from the City Lord's Mansion, and were able to barely keep the family afloat.

Surprisingly, the couple still kept a low profile and started doing good deeds.

If any independent cultivator in the city is in trouble, they can come to him for help, so he has gained a lot of good reputation.

The guard led the way and walked beside Gu Qingyan, checking the surrounding situation while whispering about the situation of the Fang family.

Finally, I couldn't help but sigh.

"Now that the Fang family is in trouble, I'm afraid it will cause public outrage."

Gu Qingyan's expression did not change, and his sharp eyes scanned the surroundings, not missing any unusual signs.

"The Fang family was not inside, and those who died were all slaves."

In the previous four cases of families being exterminated, important figures such as the head of the family disappeared, and the servants died miserably.

This time should be no exception.

The leader suddenly became excited.

"Really?"

"Ah."

"Then according to Daoist Gu's judgment, are the Fang family members still alive?"

Gu Qingyan's gaze paused, then quickly returned to normal.

"Can not be sure."

The leader was instantly depressed and wanted to ask something, but seeing that Gu Qingyan looked serious and had no intention of answering, he had to swallow his words back.

The Fang Mansion is very large, but neither the courtyard nor the house are decorated lavishly, and are even a bit simple.

Everywhere one could see the slaves fleeing in a panic, and occasionally a corpse with its heart dug out lying in a pool of blood.

After walking along the corridor and checking every room one by one, Gu Qingyan stood in the corridor with a serious expression, not finding any living people.

Suddenly, Xi Shili came hurriedly.

"Big Brother!"

Gu Qingyan tilted his head to look, his eyes were deep, his profile was angular, and the lines were very smooth.

"How about it?"

Xi Shili shook his head, his childish face full of pity.

"Just like before, the three members of the Fang family are gone, and the remaining servants had their hearts dug out and were killed on the spot."

Most of the dead slaves were in the early stage of Qi Refining, and their heart was their biggest weakness.

Having said this, Xi Shili pursed his lips and spoke angrily again.

"That devil simply treated this place as a hunting ground. It seemed like he was giving everyone a chance to escape, but in fact, he didn't give us any chance to survive."

Since joining the Lingxiao Sect, Xi Shili has often followed his senior brothers and sisters to fight demons and defend the way.

The demons that fell into their hands were all ruthless.

But in front of that skeleton just now, it was nothing!

Gu Qingyan was silent, not knowing what to say.

At this moment, the spiritual crane that Feng Liyu used to transmit sound flew over.

"Big Brother, we found a dungeon in the backyard. There are living people inside. Come quickly."

----

In the damp and dark dungeon, after Feng Liyu finished transmitting the message, he stepped back, holding the fist-sized night pearl given by Jiang Ciyuan.

Jiang Ciyuan drew out the Xuanshuang Sword expressionlessly and chopped it cleanly on the Xuantie lock.

The black iron lock is very hard, but it cannot withstand the sharper Black Frost Sword.

With a "bang", the chain fell off.

Perhaps the noise was too loud, and a woman who was sleeping in the corner was suddenly awakened.

She was so frightened that she trembled all over, and reached out to hug the other girl beside her in fear and caution.

"Don't arrest us, please, don't arrest us!"

Warm tears rolled down, and the miserable plea seemed to wake up the other girl.

"Cough cough cough..."

She moved slightly, and her slender and frail body trembled continuously with her rapid coughing, which was very pitiful.

Upon hearing this, Jiang Ciyuan quickly put the Xuanshuang Sword into the scabbard and walked in.

Facing the horrified look from the woman, he frowned and explained.

"We are disciples of Lingxiao Sect, and we are here to rescue you."

The woman was stunned, and hesitation appeared on her dirty little face, but the fear in her eyes had not yet dissipated.

“Save…save us?”

Jiang Ciyuan was very handsome, with deep and three-dimensional facial features, which were exquisitely crafted. His black hair was tied into a high ponytail with a red hairband at the back of his head, revealing his angular face with the youthful vigor and rebelliousness unique to young people.

This should be a face that makes people feel good, but when he frowns, he has a powerful aura that makes people feel intimidated.

The woman couldn't help but feel a little scared. She swallowed unconsciously and looked at Feng Liyu, who had a harmless appearance and looked like a good guy, outside the cage.

Seeing the other person nod at her gently, she immediately let go of the other girl and crawled to her knees in front of Jiang Ciyuan.

"Master, please save me. I was drugged and knocked unconscious ten days ago. When I woke up, I was in this dungeon."

"I originally thought I was being kidnapped, but I didn't expect that the person who kidnapped me was actually using living people to make elixirs!"

When the five words "using living people to make elixirs" came out, not only Jiang Ciyuan, but even the usually calm Feng Liyu was shocked.

"Tell me clearly, what's going on?"

Jiang Ciyuan's voice turned cold. Without time to help the man up, he supported himself on the ground with one hand using his sword, bent his knees and squatted down with his tall body.

The dark hair curled up in the air and then quickly fell down.

The woman was still a little afraid of Jiang Ciyuan, but this emotion was far less than the fear and anger that had accumulated over the past few days.

She sobbed and shook her head, her tone full of anxiety and fear.

"I don't know the details. I heard it from the girls who stayed here before."

"At first there were six women here, but now there are only me and Miss Qiao Qiao left."

As soon as she finished speaking, the girl Qiao Qiao she was referring to stood up with some difficulty and slowly turned her head to look over.

The girl in front of Jiang Ciyuan had a pretty appearance and looked very pitiful when she cried.

And that girl Qiao Qiao possesses an extremely holy and celestial appearance.

She was extremely beautiful, with a palm-sized face and delicate features, like a masterpiece carefully carved by the Creator.

It also feels very broken, like a fine piece of porcelain that needs careful care.

Even though she is in a cage, dirty and in a miserable state, and even though she looks pale and weak, it still does not affect her unparalleled beauty.

Especially when those pure and harmless deer eyes look over gently, they can easily touch the softest part of a person's heart.

But under her left eye, there is a deep red teardrop mole.

As his eyes moved, a soul-stirring desire emanated from him.

Innocence and holiness, yet allure and charm, these two qualities that should be contradictory are perfectly blended in her.
