Devil Sovereign: Consort Can’t Escape - C160

Feng Jiuyang also agreed, “I’m afraid something will happen tonight.”

Tang Ling threw a piece of firewood at him. “You jinx, you don’t know how to talk nice.”

Jiang Feng sat beside the campfire, his eyes quietly staring at the dancing flames. His brows slightly knit, as if hesitating a bit, before he finally opened his mouth, “I feel that there seems to be a faintly discernible aura of death here.”

“Death Qi?” Mu Xiaoling looked at Jiang Feng. She was the only one who knew of Jiang Feng’s origins here. When it came to the aura of death, no one was more sensitive than Jiang Feng.

Jiang Feng said, “It’s very faint, almost indiscernible. I’m not too sure, but it’s as if something’s concealed it.”

As these words came out, besides Feng Jiuyang who was shocked, everyone else was also bewildered.

Tang Ling said, “I only know demonic energy and spiritual energy. What is this deathly aura?”

Feng Jiuyang explained, “After the spirit energy has been fermented by the corpse, it will give birth to an aura of death, sometimes called corpse aura. However, this kind of thing is extremely rare, but I didn’t expect that there would be an aura of death in this small village.”

Tang Ling was even more confused. If that was the case, they wouldn’t have been able to sense the presence of the aura of death, but Jiang Feng could feel it. “How can Jiang Feng feel the aura of death?”

Mu Xiaoling stood up. “Jiang Feng and I will go out and investigate.”

“Sure.” Feng Jiuyang nodded.

Mu Xiaoling brought Jiang Feng and left the courtyard. Jiang Feng then led the way, walking and stopping to the west side of the village where there was a tall wall blocking the way.

Jiang Feng said in a low voice, “Right here.”

Mu Xiaoling nodded and quietly climbed to the top of the wall. However, she was shocked by the situation on the other side.

This was a very large open area, and should be used for drying food for the villagers, but now this open area was densely packed with demon corpses.

These demon corpses surrounded something in three layers, but none of them moved. Mu Xiaoling could clearly feel that they were attracted by something. However, that thing was currently in the middle of the open space and they couldn’t see it.

Jiang Feng suddenly jumped over the high wall and jumped into the middle of the demon corpse.

His aura was enough to make ordinary demon corpses keep their distance, silently walking into the encirclement of demon corpses.

Mu Xiaoling didn’t dare to call out. She could only crazily call out Jiang Feng’s name from her sea of consciousness. However, Jiang Feng didn’t give her a reply.

Only the demonic corpses suddenly became anxious, as if they had gone mad and quickly rushed to the center.

At this moment, Jiang Feng suddenly jumped high into the air from the middle. He kicked away the demon corpse beneath his feet and flew towards Mu Xiaoling, pulling her along as he ran.

Jiang Feng said, “These demon corpses have already mutated. We can’t kill them. Let’s run.” As he said this, he threw out a palm which turned into a blade and pierced through the heart of a demon corpse in the blink of an eye.

Mu Xiaoling looked over and saw that not only did the fallen demon corpse not die, it even exploded. Every part of its body was quickly growing back and turned into a new demon corpse, joining the group of people chasing after it.

Mu Xiaoling was shocked. What was this, an overspeed?

He really couldn’t kill them like this …

“Feng Jiuyang, bring someone to the carriage and run!” Mu Xiaoling and Jiang Feng made a detour around the resting quarters of the others.

At this time, they weren’t too far away from the courtyard, so Feng Jiuyang immediately heard Mu Xiaoling’s voice, followed by the sound of hundreds of disorderly footsteps. He knew that Mu Xiaoling wouldn’t joke about such a thing, so he immediately said, “Get into the carriage, we don’t need anything. Let’s go!”

Although Tang Ling and Qi Tai didn’t understand what he meant, they still helped Li He into the carriage. Feng Jiuyang pushed Qi Tai into the carriage and left the village alone.

Mu Xiaoling and Jiang Feng continued to circle around the village with the demon corpses until they met up with Feng Jiuyang at the village entrance. They immediately jumped into the carriage and threw out all the hidden weapons they could throw in order to stall the demon corpses.

With every hit on these demon corpses, even if they didn’t die, they would still split into two, as if they couldn’t be killed cleanly, and the number of demon corpses kept on increasing.

Li He was so scared that he fainted and fell into the car.

Tang Ling’s eyes widened, “This …” Is this really a demon corpse, did he lie to me? ”

Qi Tai also couldn’t believe it. He had never seen such a strange demon corpse before.

Feng Jiuyang pursed his lips, “Previously, the lower realm was only the lowest level of demon corpses, and all of these should have absorbed some kind of power. Now, there are all sorts of demon corpses in the middle realm, some of them have good poisons, some of them have skin as hard as iron, and some of them are even more intelligent than humans.”

Compared to the demons of the middle and upper realms, the demon corpses of the lower realms were simply child’s play.

“They’re affected by this.” Jiang Feng took out an item from his chest and gave it to Mu Xiaoling.

It was a piece of blood-red, beast-shaped jade. It was smaller than Mu Xiaoling’s palm and warm to the touch. There seemed to be blood flowing within it.

She could feel that there was a dense spiritual energy inside this Jade Bind. However, it was locked inside so that it could not leak out.

As the demon corpse got further and further away, everyone finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Tang Ling looked at Yu Jue in doubt: “What exactly is this for?”

However, no one knew.

Qi Tai said, “Let’s keep it for now, it might be useful in the future.”

Mu Xiaoling nodded. She placed the jade slip into her spatial ring and then took out some food to share with the others.

After that, they did not dare to stop and rode their horses at full speed to the capital.

Only when they arrived at the city gates did they realize that the situation was somewhat different from what they had expected.

As the capital of Ling Country, this place was naturally bustling with activity, and there were many people entering and exiting from it every day. However, there were coincidentally some matters that caused the city gates to be under martial law.

Mu Xiaoling looked at the long line of people in front of her and couldn’t help sighing. Why was it that she could always catch up with martial law wherever she went?

“If that’s the case, then it’s fine even if we don’t enter the capital. We’ll find a place to rest nearby and then figure out a way to sneak into Ping Xi mountain.”

Mu Xiaoling said, “That’s fine. I saw a teahouse in front of us when I was coming over. Let’s go take a seat and ask around.”

Everyone naturally agreed. Feng Jiuyang and Qi Tai rushed the carriage to the side of the tea house, and the six of them got off the carriage to find a table for Zhang Kong to sit at.

The waiter immediately ran over. “What do you want to eat, sir?”

Tang Ling waved her hand. “Six bowls of cold tea, twenty dumplings, and a plate of stewed meat.”

“Alright.” The waiter immediately went back to prepare, and in a moment, he had already placed all the items on the table.

Mu Xiaoling, Feng Jiuyang, Tang Ling, and Qi Tai were listening attentively to the commotion around them. Even Li He was trying his best to listen carefully. Only Jiang Feng was looking seriously at the bowl and chopsticks in front of him. He quietly turned his head to look at Mu Xiaoling, but Mu Xiaoling wasn’t eating at all.

So no one told him how to use the two sticks called chopsticks.
