Lord Xue Ying's

Chapter 158 – Footprint

Winter

A layer of thick snow had long piled up around the Xia Capital, while the winter air enveloped the world. On the third floor of an elegant restaurant it felt quite warm and cozy.

Good wine is warm.

Xue Ying and Jing Qiu sat facing each other, drinking delicious fruit wine while chatting. Although there were other guests on the third floor, they sat quite far away from them. Although Transcendents, more or less, are friendly to each other, they value privacy, hence they often give each other nods as greetings and will not interfere with other Transcendents. Xue Ying and Jing Qiu clearly enjoyed this kind of environment.

"Jing Qiu, after the Faction Chief checked your progress yesterday, your rank soared to fourth," Xue Ying praised. “Although they say that Transcendent Mages are increasing much more slowly, than what I saw, your improvement is quite fast. ”

Jing Qiu gave a beautiful smile, took a sip of his wine and replied by tilting his mouth, "What, you've already ranked first, but you didn't let anyone else improve in the slightest?"

"That's not what I meant," Xue Ying added hurriedly.

“I'm just kidding with you! Honestly, ever since you became number one, I feel more responsive in my investigation. For some reason, when I studied the spell model, I was able to comprehend its contents for only a moment, and after that, I made a breakthrough. '' Jing Qiu laughed. “Cultivated with a pleasant mood is really comfortable. Actually, earlier, I thought they treated you unfairly. And now, I was proved right! "

"You ah, you're too focused on these things. '' Xue Ying shook his head.

"Hmphs. Earlier, when I heard the Faction Head reprimanding you, I already felt very unhappy, ”Jing Qiu shook his head, before his eyes shone. “Oh right, this time, you slapped her face quite hard. What was he like when you saw him after you completed the Mountain Road mission? Was his expression really awkward? "

“That's not what you think! In fact, the Chief of the Si Kong Faction had quite a big heart. Previously, he was very worried that I was walking on the wrong path, and just because of his concern for me, he rebuked me loudly, ” Xue Ying replied.

The two chatted together. The World Energy Layer formed a privacy shield on it.

When Transcendent chatted, no one intentionally eavesdropped. After all, it would be very disrespectful for someone to do so.

Suddenly

The three Transcendents sitting at the table beside them had a huge change in their expressions. One of them even stood up, flipped over a bottle of wine and spilled its contents onto the floor. One of the servants came rushing over.

"Mn?" Xue Ying and Jing Qiu, along with the Transcendent at the other table looked on with puzzled expressions.

"What happened to them?" Jing Qiu asked, surprised. "Being Transcendent, how could one lose their calm state to the extent of turning over the wine flask!"

“See how shocked the three of them were, I think something big must have happened related to them. '' Xue Ying was calmly sipping his wine.

“Transcendent Mechanism. ”

One of the three Transcendents, who was a relatively impressive male with a disheveled hairstyle, swept his gaze towards the other two tables and shouted, "Brother Dong Bo, Brother Wei An, do you know about the matter about demons?"

"What's going on?" Xue Ying, Jin Qiu and the other Transcendents were extremely curious.

The imposing man, Rong Jun, was a transcendent Saint saint and was relatively famous in the Xia Capital.

"It seems that our fellow Transcendents don't yet know what's going on" Rong Jun continued. "I have just received news stating that my Can Gan County in Eastfields Province ... has just been completely exterminated!"

"What!"

Xue Ying, Jing Qiu and the other two Transcendents at the other table were so shocked that they stood up instantly.

A county just been destroyed?

Since the county was usually relatively established and long-lived, their defense would be very impressive. At the same time, there would normally be over ten million people living in an area. Now a county has been destroyed? That's devastating news! The Transcendent would not dare to do such a thing, including that of the Beast Clan, unless the two races were at war.

Doing such a thing would definitely anger the entire Xia Clan, and the Xia Clan would use their full strength to exact revenge against the perpetrators.

"How is this possible? Who would dare to do it? ”Xue Ying hurriedly asked,“ Brother Rong Jun, did you just mention something about demons? Is the devil guilty? But how long had it been since the Abyss Demons had previously appeared? And even if there were some demons still alive in the world, I doubt they would dare to do such a thing. ”

“I'm also not clear about what really happened. ”

Rong Jun added, “But all I can confirm is that there are very powerful demons who dare to slaughter people in my area. In the end, after our Demigod Xia Clan reached the location, they started a huge battle! The aftershocks from this battle were huge, and the demonic aura was so earth-shaking that many people who were in distant regions could feel a terrifying and destructive dark aura. As for the details of the battle, it is something I am not clear about. However, several men from our area followed the aftershocks to investigate what happened. When they reached the location, they found that the entire area was quiet, and many corpses were lying there. Although they were all dead, the corpses did not have any visible wounds. ”

"No injuries?" Xue Ying's expression changed drastically.

Causing the entire county's population of over ten million people to die without having any visible injuries was frightening to anyone who heard it. Some Demigods might have the ability to do such a thing, but they also did not dare to do it!

"What's really going on?" Jing Qiu couldn't help but ask. “Why did such a powerful demon appear? Our Xia Clan's Demigods have wandered around in various locations, so how could the extermination of the entire county take place? "

"Let's ask brother Eternal Wind," added Jing Qiu.

“Mn, I think he should have known more. '' Xue Ying immediately sent a message with his communication bracelet to Chi Qiu Bai.

……

It was not only Xue Ying and those who were with him.

Right now, the entire Transcendents Xia Capital had received various news from their hometowns. After all, this Transcendent would still be communicating with the people from their hometown.

There are different types of news.

Like how there was an earthquake battle that created a big aftershock.

Or that there were some Demon Abyss that had been slaughtered by some powerful Transcendent after the demons slaughtered the inhabitants!

But things like the destruction of an entire area were truly rare. After all, the defense capabilities of a county were relatively strong, and its protection area was a huge – region for a population of ten million people. Wanting to exterminate an entire population of 10 million people in a short period of time ..can only be achieved by the strongest demons.

"What's really going on?"

"Why are there so many traces of demons?"

"Why are there no words from the Demigod elders?"

Transcendent Xia Capital exchanged this message.

This transcendent knows too little. At most, their assumptions were merely conclusions drawn from clues gathered from everywhere.

On the highest floor of a particular restaurant.

The entire top floor has been booked. Transcendents from the Quiet Sun Province were currently gathered at this location, and they all felt uneasy. They did not get together because of a special event. Some Transcendents like Hai Ru Zhen and Peng Shan were currently in their hometowns.

"Transcendent Dean, stay calm," Xue Ying said. Right now, since Chi Qiu Bai and Peng Shan were not around, he was currently their temporary leader. “Kakak Eternal Wind has sent a message to keep us calm and waiting. I believe that there will be news coming from him soon. ”

“We also don't know what really happened. ”

“I guess it was supposed to be an invasion by demons, although the scale of their invasion was not known as of now. ”

"Ai. ”

All of these transcendents felt very uncomfortable.

From the information they gathered, demons had appeared throughout the entire Dragon Mountain Empire, and all of those battles were extremely fierce. Clearly, the Demigod lords were currently moving to all different locations, especially with their great combat power and their ease of going back and forth in space.
