Mortal Cultivation-Chapter 271
271 Friends From The Xuanbing College
Master Huo looked at Wang Wei and nodded, clasped his fists and cupped his hands again. “It turned out to be the top students from Xuanbing College. Thank you for your help. If it’s okay, can you please ask me? Friends, come to our hospital for a short rest, in order to fulfill the friendship of the landlord?”
Wang Wei said: “Master Huo, you’re welcome, it’s our job as spiritual masters to help, and Master Huo doesn’t need to talk about it. We just didn’t expect that there are monsters so brave in this Central Plains world, which is beyond our expectations. ”
Huo Feng sighed and said, “I’ll tell you the truth. Originally, there were very few demons around our Qiongshan City. Even if they did, they were low-level monsters scattered in the mountains. In the beginning, there are often cases of spiritual masters killed and spiritual crystals stolen around the city. After investigation, we found out that it turned out to be a group of high-level magical beasts.”
Everyone was shocked when they heard it. Why did this kind of thing happen in the Central Plains realm?
Wang Wei couldn’t help but ask. “Didn’t you send spiritual masters to encircle and suppress it?”
Huo Feng said: “Did we send them? We have carried out many large-scale encirclement and suppression activities for this reason. But the group of demon beasts are just like the humans when retreating, leaving no trace, and the encirclement and suppression activities have been unsuccessful several times. return!”
After Huo Feng finished speaking, he sighed and continued: “Alas, for more than a year, dozens of our spiritual masters have died unexpectedly, causing the whole city to panic. The presbytery strictly prohibits any spiritual master from being alone. Go out of the city to prevent encounters with the demons. At the same time, we also sent dozens of small teams to conduct daily investigations and unannounced visits around Qiongshan City in order to find the traces of the demons. I am the sub-captain of this team, just now When I was searching around, I saw a distress signal, so I came here, but I didn’t expect to be one step late, and I didn’t see any trace of the demons!”
After hearing this, Wang Wei nodded and said, “That’s true, to be honest, we in Xuanbing City are like you, and similar incidents have often happened in the past two years. Just now, we came earlier and had a fight with the demons. We found that these demons seem to be very organized, they can fight if they can, but run away if they can’t. And they panic and don’t panic when they escape, it seems that there are high-level demon beasts behind them.”
After all, Wang Wei motioned to Lu Wenfeng and Fatty to take out the beast that was killed just now and threw it in front of Huo Feng and the others around him.

Wang Wei pointed to the corpses of the two monsters and said, “Master Huo, these two monsters were killed by us just now, so I’ll leave them to you to deal with them!”
Huo Feng carefully checked the corpses of the two monsters on the ground, and suddenly asked Dongyun, “Dongyun, how did you encounter these monsters? Don’t you know that the Elder Hall ordered you not to leave the city alone?”
Dongyun said aggrievedly: “Master Huo, I’m just wondering. Originally, I was drinking tea in the tea shed at the gate of the city, and suddenly a spiritual master came from outside the city, sweating profusely, and shouted at the tea shed. Said: ‘Is there a spiritual master here? Come with me to save some people!’ As soon as I heard him begging, I immediately stood up and rushed over with that master. Master Huo, am I doing the right thing?”
Huo Feng nodded and said, “That’s right, you did a good job, what happened after that?”
Dong Yun gritted his teeth and said dejectedly: “Later, after running for a while, I wondered why this person only took me so far to save people, and I don’t know what happened to the person to save. I don’t know, so I wanted to catch up with the man and ask about the situation. But the man ran very fast, and he didn’t even hear me calling him. I didn’t catch up with him at all, but I couldn’t leave him and run back alone. So, I can only forge ahead and run here.”
After listening, Huo Feng pondered: “It’s really strange that such a thing has happened! What happened after that?”
Dong Yun sighed and said, “Later, for some reason, after turning around a mountain ridge, the spiritual master in front disappeared. I was very surprised, why did that person run away alone without waiting for me? So I started looking around. But before I could find out how far, I suddenly found out that I was surrounded by monsters. Originally, I felt guilty, but when I saw that I was surrounded by monsters, I was so scared that my soul nearly flew out of my body. I ran in the right direction, and as I ran, I sent out a distress signal.”
Speaking of which, Dong Yun wiped his cold sweat in fear, and continued: “Fortunately, I ran fast, the magic power of those monsters chasing behind my back injured me. I almost become food in the mouth of the demons! Fortunately, Brother Wang Wei and the others arrived in time, otherwise, I would not be able to escape the pursuit of the demons!”
Everyone was shocked when they heard it. According to Dongyun, there was another spiritual master here. Where did the other spiritual master go? Why did it disappear without a trace in the blink of an eye? Could it be that he was suddenly attacked by monsters? There must be signs of a fight, right?
If that’s the case, it was impossible for Dongyun, who was next to him, to fail to find out. Unless, that person was killed by a beast. But even so, the attack of the monsters would make a sound, and it was impossible not to feel it with the cultivation base of the fourth-level great spiritual master of Dongyun.
This was strange, he had not encountered any monsters, but suddenly disappeared, what could be the reason?
Feng Wenfeng pondered for a moment and said, “Could it be that the spiritual master hid immediately after discovering the traces of the beasts? When the beasts were chasing Dongyun, did the spiritual master find a chance to escape?” fr𝚎e𝙬𝚎𝚋𝚗૦ν𝚎𝒍.c૦m
Huo Feng nodded and said, “Well, it’s very possible. If that’s the case, don’t let me know who it is, otherwise, I won’t be able to spare this kind of person who is greedy for life and fears death and only cares about his own escape!”
“No, there is another possibility.” Wang Wei said after thinking, “That is the spiritual master who is likely to be with the demons, using himself as bait to lead the spiritual master to the encirclement of the demons and then kill him. Or, that spiritual master was simply transformed from a demon beast.”
When Wang Wei said this, everyone was shocked.
