The Legend of the Devil
Ch. 80 - A Hunting Turmoil
Two days after the situation in the Eternal Valley which was being hit by chaos caused concern in the hearts of the people, this was related to the escape of a demon from the college. Paper containing the announcement of the search for fugitives was scattered on a narrow street filled with pedestrians, traders and travelers.
Who does not know the 45th Elder of the Eternal Valley, during his life he was a benevolent and peaceful man without much trouble. Friendship is something that is always united by him and it makes him rarely get enemies.
This fact makes the guess more strongly fixed on the devil. There is no more reasonable person than him.
The whereabouts of Kang Jian himself was already unknown. After the fight that took place on the execution stage of the Eternal Valley the man was said to have disappeared and obtained an extremely heavy wound.
There are some rumors that the man fled to one place in the Eternal Valley and committed suicide in the torrential river where the warriors of the Eternal Valley committed suicide after committing an unspeakable act sorry and ended up awful.
The news became an endless topic of conversation kept on being discussed. Strange rumors began to spread. Xue Zhan was still on a quest that involved hundreds of warriors from the Eternal Valley descending to chase after him.
The instability was heard to the ears of the Emperor. The man surnamed Ziran stomped his fist into the handle of the chair very hard. In a meeting held with the Council of Nine, they also discussed one of the most respected people in the Diqiu Empire, unexpectedly the confidant Emperor Ziran was involved and left without explaining what had happened, he was Kang Jian.
"I can't believe Kang Jian actually did this."
Lu Baiyi shook his head in disbelief, a rude gasp sounded along the course of the meeting. He was the only one who spoke, because all the other councils knew how close Ziran Zhao and Kang Jian were to talk.
As the one who gave that chance of life to Xue Zhan, this was a humiliating slap that left his name shattered in the face of the other Empire. Ziran Zhao couldn't tolerate it anymore, he yelled echoing all over.
"Send a hundred soldiers to capture the demon and bring him before me! This time I made sure! I won't be merciful to her anymore!"
The angry speech was met with the dissemination of all subordinates to convey the Emperor's order.
The Nine Council nodded, this matter cannot be left alone.

A girl woke up from her seat, walked hastily to the courtyard of the residence seeing the swordsman moving so much as he usually did and felt something had happened until this happened.
A waitress approached, "Miss, your bath water is warmed. Please."
"Ah Shu's. What's up with these guys? Is there a problem in the Empire?" Yin Jiao looked worried for no reason, her eyes could not be separated from the group. Even the college of Cloud Mountain came all the way down the mountain to the center of the Empire and walked into the palace in a hurry.
"Miss doesn't know yet? Disciple Mr. Kang committed a fatal crime. He killed the 45th Elder and ran away just like that. His teacher was rumored to have committed suicide in the damned river of the Eternal Valley."
"W-what?" as soon as the girl was stunned, she lifted a little of her clothes and ran as fast as she could outside her private residence. The chaos has spread so quickly.
It was seen that a warrior from the Feng Empire had appeared. Without further ado or self-introduction, "It seems that His Majesty was too late to face his own decision. It was a pity that the demon incised a deep wound for the rare kindness that the iron-handed Emperor gave. Animals are still animals, no one can change their true nature into virtuous human beings."
He smiled a little down. "I'll go first."
Yin Jiao ignored the stranger and ran towards her grandfather who was walking along with the bodyguards and the two Nine Councils. Seriously visible on their faces all.
Of course this was not just a trivial matter because other Empires might have heard of it. Xue Zhan was a threat to the entire Empire and now he had shown his fangs. Does not cover the possibility that he will be a disaster that will shock the world.
"Grandfather, is the news true?"
"Go back to your room and don't let that rotten devil kill you."
"But—"
"There is no defiance!"
Yin Jiao looked down trying to understand, "Okay, Grandpa."
Yin Jiao returned with an erratic heart, that beautiful, gentle face so glumly in sight. He subconsciously walked into a halfway house that was barely taken care of, his eyes staring long into the place.
His steps towards the door, Yin Jiao entered into it. Dust and the smell of wood greeted his nose for a moment, it had been a long time since this place was inhabited.
The last time an unimportant guest had stayed, was about three years ago. The girl smiled thinly. He approached the table and did not expect that he was not alone there.
A person in all-black clothes, a head covering and a thin cloth covering his nose to his chin was also as shocked as Yin Jiao. He had just ransacked the room and obtained some items.
Yin Jiao reflexively took out a sword and attacked the stranger, the figure immediately dodged after picking up his things and blurred away just like that.
Yin Jiao chased after the figure until from another direction another enemy came towards her and immediately surrounded the girl.
The chaotic situation in the Imperial Palace made the guard weakened and invited many criminals in. Yin Jiao should have known that already because her grandfather had always warned her to immediately confine herself in this kind of situation.
However Yin Jiao made a mistake and ended up stuck. Ziran Zhao would definitely not forgive him.
Yin Jiao's legs restrained. Seventeen men surrounded him simultaneously, making a circle where he could not escape to anywhere anymore.
"Capture this girl as soon as possible, don't let her run!" yin Jiao was on standby as she guessed, when she saw an iron skull pin tucked in their robes, the girl knew who the enemy she was facing right now.
The Ghost Jade Tower.
The fight happened so quickly, Yin Jiao ducked down and swung her sword. He managed to hit one enemy and push it until they split. While trying to escape Yin Jiao was caught.
"Bring her-!"
A thin translucent iron throw into the neck of an enemy who had just shouted, the man froze and instantly collapsed to life with a small hole in his neck. The Yin Jiao held by the three men rounded their eyes. Seeing the enemy he was chasing earlier turn around and attack the people from the Ghost Jade Tower.
Not only did it get there, the figure also saved him from the three people holding it. Pulling her next to him while saying, the young man's voice felt familiar. "Come as far as you can."
"You who?" Yin Jiao was confused. The young man straightened one hand, revealing a sharp white sword ready to subvert dozens of enemies. The figure jumped up and entered the enemy circle, fighting one against seventeen at a time without hesitation.
Yin Jiao had no intention of leaving the person fighting to save her alone. He pulled the weapon, although today had to defy his grandfather's orders to stay at home, Yin Jiao did not care.
Just pulling the sword, someone caught it and placed the knife on the young girl's neck.
