Chapter 536: 163 Dark Moon Tiger Tribe, Bullying Little Tigers? (Ask for Monthly Tickets) _1
Dark, foul-smelling blood stains covered the whole marketplace. Every street, wooden house, courtyard loft was littered with countless withered skeletons that looked like mummies.
On these skeletons, traces of demonic aura still lingered.
The entire marketplace looked like a purgatory, completely ravaged by dark forces, with not even an animal spared.
Su Yu, Luo Qianyu, Taoist Qingquan and others narrowed their eyes in silent rage. This was the territory of the Greater Moon Prefecture. How dared these demons from Jiuhun Demon Mountain behave so recklessly?
This location was towards the north of Greater Moon Prefecture, not far from the frontier, and even closer to the ghostly land of Jiuhun Demon Mountain.
The Ma Family, who were Land Masters, used to be close to this place, but because of the threats from Xuan Ming Demon King, and the fact that Ma Shiqing was accompanying Taoist Qingquan to the Star Picking Tower for cultivation, the Ma Family had moved to the Greater Moon City and no longer lived in their ancestral lands.
“This marketplace called Mo Yue Mountain Marketplace,” said Ma Shiqing, furrowing his brows. “And it was controlled by a Wu family of Foundation Establishment cultivators.”
“Now, it seems that this family is gone.”
Su Yu contemplated for a moment, and said: “Elder, let’s go down for a while.”
Without a word, Huang Zhu led Su Yu and the others from the sky in a dive, landing outside the marketplace.
Su Yu cast a fire spell, incinerating all the scattered remains in the marketplace to ashes, erasing the stench of death and bloody scent lingering in the air.
Lastly, they dug a pit next to the marketplace and buried all the ashes.
They built a nameless tomb for these people, spilled a jug of Spiritual Wine as a farewell, and saw them off.
Having done all this, Su Yu and the others left this place and continued back towards the Greater Moon Palace.
On the way back to the Greater Moon Palace, Su Yu and the others found other unrest in the Greater Moon Prefecture. In the few immortal cities they passed through, they could sense the serious and guarded atmosphere of the cultivators.
Seeing this, Su Yu and the others had a clear understanding of something troubling that must have happened recently in the Great Moon Prefecture.
This caused the expressions of Taoist Qingquan, Luo Qianyu, Ma Shiqing, and the others to become severe.
“Could it be that what’s happening next in Greater Moon Prefecture has to do with the demonic cultivators?” Taoist Qingquan wondered aloud. On the journey, she had overheard some conversations between cultivators and knew something had happened recently in Greater Moon Prefecture.
The Jiuhun Demon Mountain apparently had a great disturbance, with many demonic cultivators fleeing from it and causing havoc in Greater Moon Prefecture.
Thinking about what Su Yu had previously said about a major event happening soon in Greater Moon Prefecture, she could not help but suspect that this event was related to these demonic cultivators.
With this in mind, the look in Taoist Qingquan’s eyes became colder and she pondered the extermination of these demons in the Jiuhun Demon Mountain.
Su Yu did not say a word.
From the very beginning, he had not revealed anything about the affairs of the Alliance Hierarch of Taixu, Xuantian Immortal Gate, Qingxuan Immortal Gate, or other sea area forces.
He only mentioned that he felt uneasy, and that it might have something to do with their homeland.
That’s why he brought Taoist Qingquan, Luo Qianyu, and the others back with him.
However, Su Yu hadn’t expected that upon their return, Greater Moon Prefecture was already in unrest. Many Cultivators and their families and the cultivators from marketplaces had fled northward, all heading towards the central region or going south.
A great change had occurred in the Jiuhun Demon Mountain. Rumors suggested that the Xuan Ming Demon King, who had disappeared in the Phoenix Valley of Phoenix Fall Residence, had returned with his followers.
He was currently within the Jiuhun Demon Mountain, fighting for dominance over the Jiuhun Demon Palace.
Even though Su Yu didn’t know if the rumors about the Xuan Ming Demon King being a reincarnated demon king of the ancient times were true, ever since he appeared, in just a few decades he had managed to compete with the Jiuhun Demon Palace, even contending for the dominant position in Jiuhun Demon Mountain.
Such a figure could already be considered a legend.
There was silence all the way.
With the unmatched speed of Huang Zhu, Su Yu and the others returned to the Greater Moon Palace. By the time they approached the Greater Moon Palace, Fairy Liu Xu from the Greater Moon Palace had already appeared outside, looking serious as she watched them return.
The demonic aura radiating from Huang Zhu was simply too staggering. Even from a distance, it made Liu Xu’s heart tremble.
However, luckily.
When Huang Zhu approached the Greater Moon Palace, Liu Xu sensed the aura of Human Cultivators on his back. Upon closer examination, she saw familiar faces like Su Yu, Taoist Qingquan, Luo Qianyu, and so on.
At that moment, surprise flashed in Liu Xu’s eyes: “They’re back?”
Their return wasn’t surprising.
But —
What about the person beneath them?
Whilst Liu Xu was pondering this, in no time, a pale yellow escape light appeared not far from her, and a huge python beast with pale yellow Scale Armor and two claws stopped a hundred feet above her in the sky.
Even though its beastly aura was slightly restrained, it still made Liu Xu’s face pale and made her instinctively feel fear, she sensed an ultimate threat from Huang Zhu.
Standing in front of Huang Zhu, she felt incredibly small.
Necessitated, Liu Xu condensed her own domain aura to resist for a while before she felt a bit better.
Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh.
Su Yu, Taoist Qingquan, Luo Qianyu, Taoist Shuhai, and Ma Shiqing all jumped down from Huang Zhu’s back, stood in front of Liu Xu and respectfully saluted.
“We pay respects to Elder Liu Xu.”
“We pay respects to the Ancestor.”
“Hmm.”
Liu Xu nodded in acknowledgment, then turned her gaze towards Huang Zhu: “This elder is…”
Su Yu quickly replied: “This is Elder Huang Zhu from the Earth Immortal Mansion. He was asked by my Master to accompany us back here due to the long journey.”
