23 There's A Little Demonic Aura Too

"There's nowhere else to go. I've already achieved the goal of this training." Ma Xuan came back to her senses and looked at the White Lion King.

Ma Xuan only wanted to bring her disciples here to train. Now that her goal had been achieved, it was time to return to the Rampant Sect.

"In that case, I'll lead my disciple to Ancient Pine City first." Xu Tian nodded, then threw out his sword and prepared to travel.

Looking at the time, it was getting late. He was already lucky to reach Ancient Pine City before dark. When the time came, he would have to find a place to rest for the night.

It seemed that the matter of breaking off the engagement for his disciple could only be discussed the next day.

"In that case, we won't disturb Junior Brother anymore. I'll bring my disciples back to the Rampant Sect. Junior Brother, have a safe trip." Ma Xuan sighed and began to bid farewell to Xu Tian.

To be honest, Ma Xuan had already doubted her life countless times since she met Xu Tian. If she continued to stay here, she would probably hit her head against the wall out of jealousy.

"Alright, farewell!" Xu Tian nodded slightly. Then, he led Ying Zhuxia on his sword and headed straight for Ancient Pine City.

It was as if a ray of light had streaked across the horizon. That back view looked so mysterious and admirable.

Ma Xuan and the others were very jealous. After a long time, one of the disciples asked, "Speaking of which, if I become Senior Brother Xu Tian's disciple now, I should still have a chance, right? Right?!"

After about two hours of riding the sword, Xu Tian finally arrived outside Ancient Pine City. Xu Tian led Ying Zhuxia down the sword and walked past the city wall into the city.

At this moment, it was already dusk outside. If they waited any longer, they would probably have to sleep on the streets.

The people on the street were already sparse. The remaining people were also rushing home with anxious expressions.

"Let's find a teahouse first." Xu Tian sized up Ancient Pine City. Suddenly, he frowned and sensed something strange.

Something was wrong. There was a faint demonic aura here. Moreover, the closer they were to the Bo family in the city, the stronger the demonic aura!

However, with such a level of demonic aura, there must be mental demon cultivation. Clearly, there must be a mental demon cultivator hidden in Ancient Pine City.

"Master, there's a teahouse over there." Ying Zhuxia pointed to a teahouse at the side.

The teahouse in front of them was about to close. The waiter stood outside the door and was about to close the door. Xu Tian and Ying Zhuxia quickly stepped forward and took advantage of the last moment before he closed the door.

"Guests, please come in!" The shop assistant saw the clothes that Xu Tian and Ying Zhuxia were wearing and knew that they were rich, so he immediately made a welcoming gesture.

Ancient Pine City was relatively remote and could be considered an area under the jurisdiction of the Rampant Sect. Therefore, cultivators would occasionally come to this place.

Therefore, it was normal for this waiter to recognize the clothes Xu Tian and Ying Zhuxia were wearing.

"Two top rooms and a table of dishes." Xu Tian casually threw out a small piece of gold from his hand, then found a window seat in the teahouse and sat down leisurely.

"Yes, yes, yes, coming up right away!" The shop assistant's eyes lit up as he hurriedly took the small piece of gold and hurried down to prepare.

Xu Tian also began to carefully size up this Ancient Pine City and spread out the spiritual senses in his mind.

It was already dusk. Through the window, Xu Tian carefully traced the trace of demonic aura in the air.

Although this wisp of demonic aura was not very powerful, Xu Tian still felt a faint discomfort when he smelled it.

Those who cultivated this kind of demonic aura were all cruel and bloodthirsty. These people harmed ordinary people or living beings. Although humans also ate chickens, ducks, and geese, that was to fill their stomachs. However, these people were killing on a large scale to increase their strength!

Xu Tian could sense that the demonic aura in front of him was the demonic aura that could only be condensed after killing a lot of people. However, this trace of demonic aura seemed to be a little weak, as if it was severely injured.

He remembered that Ying Zhuxia had told him that Bo Yangzi's cultivation had advanced by leaps and bounds after the year he became a teenager. Moreover, he often killed people for no reason.

Could it be that this Forge Demon cultivator was related to Bo Yangzi?

At this moment, the waiter from the tea shop brought up the cooked food with a respectful expression.

"Guest, the dish is here! Please enjoy!" This voice interrupted Xu Tian's thoughts.

Xu Tian shook his head and took a deep breath. In any case, this demonic aura was not strong and could not threaten him. He would just set up an array at night.

"Guests, if you don't have anything important to do tonight, don't go out!" The waiter looked around and leaned over to whisper.

There was fear in those eyes, as if they were afraid of being known.

"Huh? Why do you say that?" Xu Tian raised his eyebrows and directly slapped another piece of gold on the table. His meaning was very simple. He wanted this waiter to tell him everything he knew!

The waiter's eyes lit up and he hurriedly accepted the gold nugget. He looked around to make sure no one was around before shaking his head and sighing.

"This all started four years ago. At that time, there had been children disappearing mysteriously in Ancient Pine City!"

"At first, no one paid attention to this matter, but as time passed, everyone realized that more than a hundred children had gone missing! These children were all below the ages of three. I wonder if they had offended a Demon God and were kidnapped!"

"Then, after finding out that hundreds of babies had gone missing, that terrifying Demon God brat actually started to attack adults!"

"That's why as long as you go out at night, don't mention which realm you are in, even a cultivator in the Nascent Breath Stage will be taken away!"

"Besides, these people died extremely cruelly. When they were discovered, all the blood in their bodies was sucked dry, leaving only dry skin and bones."

With so many missing people, they should have found some evidence of the murderer! But the murderer's background was unknown, there was even no movement at all when he killed. They didn't even know what his motive was!

As the man from the tea shop spoke, he got goosebumps all over his body, as if he was afraid he would be the next victim.
