Chapter 61 Hunt Down the Demons Personally!
"Let's go back."
Lu Qing'an did not let Zhen Yongfu and the others board the flying boat again, but asked them to return on their own. He contacted Murong Qingming and asked where he was. When he learned that Murong Qingming and others had gone to the three major families first and began to carefully investigate the traces of the demons, he immediately drove the flying boat to the destination.
If the traces of the demons were really discovered by them, they would be annihilated.
When he joined the main force, Murong Qingming and others had searched the Chen family, the Long family, and the Sun family, but no matter what, they still did not find any traces of the demons. Not even a trace of demonic energy remained, and there was no trace of the demons staying.
When Lu Qing'an arrived in the flying boat, everyone looked at him, and Murong Qingming even came to meet him.
"Fellow Daoist Jia, we have searched thoroughly, and we can't find even the slightest trace of the demons." Murong Qingming frowned.
Although they acted quickly under Zhao Dezhu's reminder, they still failed to find any traces of the demons. It seems that the demons are most likely not hiding in these three families.
After careful investigation, no evidence was found against Sun Yinyang, the head of the Sun family. I am afraid that Sun Yinyang will have to be released after the operation.
"Is it true that Sun Yinyang did not collude with the demons? Of course, I am not questioning Fellow Daoist Jia, but now there is no evidence, so it is difficult to continue to doubt Sun Yinyang." Lin Bufan, the head of the Lin family, has always been taciturn, but he suddenly spoke at this moment. Although his words were humble, he was actually questioning Lu Qingan.
This made Lu Qingan look at Lin Bufan more. He smiled and said, "At present, the demons may appear anywhere in Panlong City, and they have not been discovered. They must be cautious and their hiding places must not be so easy to find. Now that the three major families have been checked, why don't all the forces check it?"
After this, everyone fell silent.
Lin Bufan frowned slightly. How could he not hear the meaning of this? Once everyone agrees, Lu Qingan will probably start investigating the Lin family first!
Huang Zhentian said at this time: "That's right, it should be so."
Lu Qingan glanced at Huang Zhentian, then turned his gaze to Lin Bufan, and asked calmly: "What do you think, Lin family leader?"
He always felt that there must be something strange about the sudden breakthrough of the four family heads to the Void Silence Realm. Since the heads of the three major families are all suspicious, will Lin Bufan, who broke through to the Void Silence Realm with them, have problems?
The outcome is hard to say, but since the investigation has begun, it is definitely best to investigate.
Lin Bufan pondered for a while before saying: "Okay, but I think that Fellow Daoist Jia seems to have no evidence at all. If we continue like this, how long will it take us to toss?"
Everyone looked at Lin Bufan standing up completely and talking to Lu Qingan, and their expressions were weird.
Lu Qingan, on the contrary, felt that Lin Bufan had something to hide from him from this point.
Others might still be skeptical about the fact that Sun Yinyang had a problem, but he was very sure that Sun Yinyang had a problem. At least Xu Qingying's intuition had not been wrong so far, and Sun Yinyang did give him a lot of problematic performance.
Now Lin Bufan is also going to follow in Sun Yinyang's footsteps.
"What the head of the Lin family said is very true. If it really doesn't work, I will not participate in this operation. Fellow Daoist Murong, I will go back to practice first." Lu Qingan smiled.
As soon as this was said, everyone was silent.
They knew that Lu Qingan was extraordinary, at least he was already a strong man in the Liuli Realm. If they lost his assistance, the hope of eliminating the demons would be greatly weakened.
"Daoyou, we are still unclear about the situation of the demons, nor do we know how strong they are. Now we still need to rely on your strength. You all want to quickly eradicate the demons, which will certainly affect the interests of all parties. However, compared with short-term interests, long-term interests are the top priority. I hope you will think more about the future." Zhao Dezhu of the Xianjian Sect spoke at the right time, and his words were gentle, which not only stabilized Lu Qingan, but also made Lin Bufan and others think twice.
The reason why Lu Qingan is still in Panlong City is very simple. First, he wants to stay in this familiar environment for a while, and naturally does not want this stable environment to be destroyed by the demons. Second, there are familiar people here, such as Jubaozhai and the Alchemist Guild, which is more beneficial for him to accumulate life.
Therefore, what he has to do now is to lead everyone to eradicate the demons in the city.
And to eradicate all the demons, he naturally has to take up the banner. This move is also to let everyone know that if you want him to help, then listen to him.
He can quickly find the demons and eradicate all of them.
"Fellow Daoist Zhao is right." Murong Qingming smiled.
He understood Lu Qing'an's methods more and more, and also understood their importance more and more. In order to restore Panlong City to peace as soon as possible, let alone obey Lu Qing'an's arrangements, even if Lu Qing'an asked him to do something against his will, he would do it without hesitation.
"Fellow Daoist Zhao's words are not unreasonable, so let's investigate according to what Fellow Daoist Jia said! However, there is not even a trace of the demon clan. Where do you think the problem lies?" Lin Bufan was still unconvinced and looked directly at Lu Qing'an and asked.
Lu Qing'an sneered secretly, and was more certain that Lin Bufan had ulterior motives.
"The demon clan is cautious, but it is not difficult to find their hiding places in the three major families." He said.
As soon as this was said, everyone felt strange, and caution and easy to find seemed to contradict each other.
After Lu Qing'an finished speaking, he directly put himself into the demon clan. There would be demonic energy appearing during the day. In his situation, there were only a few directions to choose a hiding place.
"They may choose to hide in places far away from the ground and sparsely populated, such as the back mountain, forbidden caves, or even buried deep underground. They may also hide in treasures, or use formations to conceal their bodies, or hide in places such as underwater or at the bottom of a well..." Lu Qing'an listed more than ten possible hiding places in one breath.
These are all his experiences. If they still can't find them, it can only mean that these demons are more cautious than him, or their methods are more bizarre and unpredictable.
However, the probability of being more cautious than him is not high.
"What Brother Jia said is very true. Let's check them one by one according to this method! Let's start with the Sun family!" Murong Qingming felt that Lu Qing'an made sense. They did overlook several possible hiding places.
Everyone started to check again, and some even went underground to search.
In less than a cup of tea, news came.
"I found a palace deep underground in the Sun family, and there is a demon breath!"
As soon as this was said, everyone gathered. Murong Qingming and others looked at Lu Qing'an, and they couldn't help but admire his insight.
"It seems that the collusion between the Sun family and the demons is beyond doubt!" Murong Qingming said in a deep voice.
Everyone turned their eyes to Lin Bufan, with subtle expressions.
Lin Bufan took a deep breath and said, "It was my fault for questioning Fellow Daoist Jia just now. It's just because I have always been on good terms with the head of the Sun family, and I was afraid that he would be wronged, so I was disturbed by personal emotions for a while."
Lu Qingan smiled calmly: "It doesn't matter. By the way, I almost forgot to tell you that I am also a formation master. I have learned the method of arranging the demon-hunting formation from Fellow Daoist Li Ming's manuscript. If I can get another 5 million immortal stones of immortal medicine, I can definitely set up this formation and make the demons have nowhere to hide."
Murong Qingming heard this, and the corner of his mouth twitched slightly.
He knew very well that setting up the formation did not require the so-called immortal medicine, and Lu Qingan simply wanted immortal medicine. But now that Lu Qingan promised to help them set up the formation, he was still willing to lose some immortal medicine, so he agreed: "Yes, if you want to quickly eliminate the demons, you may need to spend more immortal medicine. By the way, Fellow Daoist Jia, how long does it take you to set up the formation?"
With Murong Qingming's words, Lu Qingan nodded with satisfaction: "The formation can be completed within six days."
"So fast? It's worthy of Fellow Daoist Jia!" Murong Qingming's eyes flashed with surprise. You know, Li Ming, the fifth-grade formation master, also needed more than 20 days to complete it. From this point of view, Lu Qingan's attainments in formation must be above the fifth grade!
