Yu Mian took a closer look at the token information.

In short, the chaos in the secular world in the past six months has increased a lot compared to the past. The speed at which disciples can solve tasks according to their wishes on weekdays is difficult to balance the increase in the number of tasks.

This time, the sect specifically called on disciples to go down the mountain. Unless they had a breakthrough, it would be best not to stay in the sect for more than one month.

When Yu Mian came back last month, he had just solved the Fengdu City incident, so he was not reminded.

She frowned slightly, feeling that many things were speeding up.

She first pinched the spirit butterfly to reply to her senior sister, and then went to find junior sister Ning to discuss it.

Arrived at Hengyang Mountain, met Ning Yue at the pavilion as agreed.

Yu Mian got off Dabai's back and landed in the pavilion with light steps. He said with a hint of hesitation, "Junior Sister Ning, the demonic disaster in this life seems to have come a little too quickly?"

Ning Yue, who was originally sitting on the stone bench, moved slightly. She raised her hand to signal to sit down and scraped off the foam from the teacup in her hand.

"It's not accelerated, but strengthened." She said firmly, with a hint of confusion and worry between her brows, "I took on a Class B mission to clean up the demon chaos half a month ago, and I just came back one day."

"This is what I found on those monsters." Ning Yue spread out her palms. A demonic aura that was imprisoned by the special power of the ring on her fingertips twisted and struggled, trying to drill into her palm.

"Demonic breath? How can it be so agile!" Although Yu Mian was curious, he didn't dare to get too close. This thing was like a dog-skin plaster. Once it was stained, it would be difficult to tear off.

However, she has the Glazed Pure Lotus in her body. If the evil spirit enters her body, it will be burned to ashes directly. There is no need to worry too much, it's just disgusting.

Ning Yue's fingertips moved slightly, and she put her palms together to crush the breath with a special force. "Before the wolf demon was killed, I forced it to tell me where the evil breath came from, but it didn't know either."

"After searching the soul, I still couldn't find the source."

"My master told me that the demonic aura seems to have a much stronger ability to attach and corrupt things."

The increased ability of demonic aura to attach and corrupt meant that the demon race as a whole was getting stronger, but Yu Mian remembered that Sheng Qing had clearly eliminated two demon generals. How could he still be getting stronger? It was too counterintuitive.

"Junior Sister Ning, you are more confident about what may happen. My senior brothers and sisters and I are preparing to go down the mountain. Do you want to come with us?" Yu Mian raised his eyes and made an invitation. With a know-it-all female protagonist in the team, they would be more confident about the team's safety.

Ning Yue raised her glass: "It would be disrespectful to refuse."

"It's just that the brothers and sisters..."

"Leave it to me!"

……

The four of them met up at the Mission Hall. The number of disciples here was more than twice as much as usual, and many of them were crowding around the wall with mission boards hanging on it, looking for suitable missions.

With the indicator requirements, all the simple and easy tasks were picked out, and those left were at least at the "C" level. The "D" level wall was empty, and many foundation-building disciples were guarding in front of the wall, waiting to grab them as soon as the elders posted them.

Yu Mian looked through the crowd and saw that there were more than a hundred tasks on it. The few pieces hanging high up and the ones left there had all been taken away.

Some of the task cards turned black, which meant that a disciple had taken over the task before, but there were casualties and the task was not completed...

In this case, there is a high probability that it will be destroyed.

The risk factor is not low.

Ning Yue looked at one of them, seemed to have thought of something, and reached out to take it. Seeing that Ning Yue had taken it, Yu Mian also took one.

Beside me, two senior brothers and sisters had already taken their materials and were ready to go out.

Yu Mian turned around in the crowd and put a hand on his shoulder. Ning Yue subconsciously gave Yu Mian some space.

She glanced at the other person's movements and silently put an isolation talisman on the other person and herself. The surrounding disciples automatically moved away from her and the distance between the two of them widened a little.

Shengqing would be jealous to death if he was tainted with someone else's scent...

Ning Yue smiled gently and put her hand down. Amid the noisy disciples, she spoke in a breathy voice, "Thank you, Senior Sister."

Yu Mian waved his hand. It was just a small matter...

Everyone came out after getting their information.

Come to the open space, start the mission, and plan the route according to the distance and urgency of the mission location.

Ning Yue: "My closest one is in the East Region, 'Yangcheng Ghost General's Ghost Marriage'."

Lin Xiaohe showed the piece she had taken and said, "At the border of the Eastern Region, the case of the missing girl in Jiangzhou."

Yin Li raised his hand, "Central Region, Huaicheng Flower Picking Demon."

Yu Mian slowly showed the piece he had chosen, "Southern Region, Shun'an City River Dragon King is getting married."

The four of them had keen intuition and felt that something was wrong with this batch of tasks. After glancing at each other, they turned and went to the mission hall and copied down all the tasks on the wall.

Then, they found that 30% of them were related to women from all over the place, as if those troublemakers suddenly began to covet ordinary women.

Yu Mian: "Do you want to talk to the elders?"

"All the missions are collected from the mundane world, and the elders must be aware of the situation." Lin Xiaohe said.

Ning Yue: "Shall we go check it out first according to the nearest place?"

"Walk."

……

Although Yangcheng is called a city, it is actually a county.

It is a large county with a population of over 100,000. It was once located on the border between two countries. After the Qi Yuan State annexed the Wei Wu State, it became a hub.

It is said that this place is full of bones of foreigners buried here, soaked with the blood of loyalty, and their souls cannot rest in peace.

In order to suppress the resentful souls and resentment accumulated over generations, it was named Yangcheng.

There are rumors that when it rains heavily and thunders loudly, ghost soldiers are often seen passing by. Those soldiers seem to have retained their appearance when they were alive. They can drill and fight. They will fight to the death under the dark clouds and repeat the scene of death.

However, since it appeared during a thunderstorm and did not hurt anyone, it became just a strange story in Yangcheng.

The anomaly appeared nearly a year ago. The wronged souls in this place lingered, and it seemed that a ghost had finally been raised. Some people called it the Ghost General. It began to frequently disturb the people and demanded that temples be built to worship it, otherwise it would harm the people.

The temple was just completed two months ago. After the Ghost General entered the temple, he began to demand women to be sacrificed in marriage. He required one woman to be sacrificed at the beginning of each month and one woman to be sacrificed on the full moon.

The people of Yangcheng were angry but dared not speak out, and did not offer any offerings in the first month. Unexpectedly, the ghost soldiers came to capture people, and in one night they captured more than a dozen young women and brought them into the temple, and then they disappeared.

The next month, they had no choice but to offer offerings, but unfortunately that could not satisfy their appetite, so they began to hunt openly, and another eight or nine people were taken away.

Today is May 1st, which means today is the day for him to take action.

The four men looked at each other, anger flashing in their eyes. He actually dared to hold the people of an entire county hostage to capture mortals. Today they would meet this so-called Ghost General and see his true face.

Yu Mian rode on Dabai, took out the spear and wiped it carefully with a white cloth. In front of him was Senior Sister Lin's golden roc, breaking through the clouds and chasing the sun, like an eagle flying in the sky, its wings cutting through the air and lifting the wind resistance.
