Looking at the grief-stricken Li Chong, Zhao Huai's heart was also heavy.
If he could save Li Yanqing, he would have already taken action.
But currently, he didn't have a good solution.
Just like Yan Jing said, only by finding that Fox Demon and slaying it could they truly save Li Yanqing.
"Didn't the divination say the Fox Demon would come?"
Zhao Huai looked at the divination result in his hand, still showing misfortune, his brow furrowed as he tried to find a way to break the situation.
"Do you have a plan?"
Yan Jing stood up and whispered in Zhao Huai's ear.
Zhao Huai solemnly shook his head.
"No?"
"No, it's very troublesome. That demon is in the brothel. If we go rashly, it will inevitably be dangerous." Zhao Huai knew without even thinking that the Drunken Flower Pavilion was an ominous place.
He had only done a divination on the way here and received two misfortunes.
The third divination, even with the change of fortune, still turned into misfortune in the end.
It was conceivable that this action must be approached with utmost caution.
"Have you fought her before?" Yan Jing asked curiously.
"Not really a fight, just a clash of demonic power. Although I won, her demonic power is at least above the seventh level of Qi Refining, and her true form is probably even stronger."
Zhao Huai replied.
Hearing this answer, Yan Jing helplessly pursed his lips.
In his eyes, Zhao Huai was already the strongest person he knew besides the disciples of genuine sects.
If he said it was difficult, there must be challenges.
"Prefect Li, it's better to send someone to the Ascension Sect first. I know you're very sad, but since that demon is still around, you need to give your son an explanation."
Yan Jing earnestly advised Li Chong, who was squatting by the bed.
The Ascension Sect was the largest sect within a thousand miles, with tens of thousands of disciples. Only they could deal with this Demons and Monsters.
"That's all we can do."
Li Chong's already exhausted body had now lost most of its strength, his face filled with numbness.
Suddenly, a cold light appeared from behind the crowd.
It was actually a tea-serving servant, holding a kitchen knife, his eyes twisted, stabbing towards Li Chong.
"You!"
Li Chong's eyes widened, his face full of surprise.
In the next instant, Zhao Huai brought two fingers together, his sword-fingers forceful.
A burst of True Qi shot out.
The kitchen knife that was about to strike was directly frozen in mid-air.
"Ding!"
Zhao Huai gently flicked, his finger carrying the Peak Intent of Ten Thousand Jin Strength, struck the bright kitchen knife, causing it to shatter inch by inch.
Yan Jing stood upright, a palm strike sending the servant flying out, his lightning-like eyes swept across the room, asking himself, "What's going on? An assassin?"
Zhao Huai walked to the fallen servant, flipped his eyelids, and came to a conclusion.
"His eyes are wrong, he's being controlled."
"When?"
Yan Jing was shocked.
"Hallucinogenic incense."
Zhao Huai calmly stood up, his expression not looking good.
"Medicine?"
Yan Jing asked back, his eyes full of doubt, he had not smelled the scent of medicinal powder.
"It's a Fox Demon."
Zhao Huai's divine sense swept across the large room, not finding anyone else hidden.
Finally, his gaze turned to the outside of the house, his eyes narrowed, and he said two words.
"Step back."
Hearing this, Yan Jing's expression turned grave, pulling the still-recovering, frightened Li Chong up, and retreating to the corner.
Zhao Huai's large hand clenched, and the Mysterious Ring flickered.
A slender, azure Treasure Sword appeared in his hand.
"Bang!"
Zhao Huai kicked the door open.
A series of long sabers immediately came slashing over.
Before him were teams of guards, holding long sabers, drool flowing from their mouths, their eyes bulging as if about to pop out, looking very scarlet and ferocious.
"I knew it!"
Zhao Huai lightly shouted, stomping his foot, the floor immediately shattering.
Quickly raising his foot, he kicked towards the chests of the many guards in front of him.
"Dong!"
"Dong!"
"Dong!"
Figures were kicked away one after another.
Zhao Huai seemed to transform into a white stream of light, holding the Treasure Sword, shuttling through the crowd.
His gaze swept outside, discovering that everyone had fallen into a strange aura.
The steward and attendants stood blankly in place.
Seeing this, Zhao Huai frowned, waving his large sleeve.
Strings of withered yellow Dao Talismans flew out from his sleeve.
"Wood-Leading Thunder Talisman, lead!"
The scene before him immediately transformed into a sea of talismans, rushing towards everyone, the Wood-Leading Thunder Talismans suspended above their heads.
Soon, streams of black gas rose from their mouths.
Gathering together, it formed a terrifying black fox face, grinning, shrieking, looking at Zhao Huai, and rushing towards him.
"Suppress."
Zhao Huai's expression was indifferent, the Treasure Sword clearing the way, its tip at the very front.
The two sides confronted each other.
Zhao Huai's other hand was not idle either, immediately biting his finger, using fresh blood as ink, and rapidly drawing a talisman in mid-air.
Drawing talismans with one hand, the speed was terrifying! Before long, an enormous Dao Talisman was completed, Zhao Huai pushed his palm out, shouting: "Golden Extermination Thunder Talisman, exterminate!"
Thunder flowers flashed in the air, becoming brighter and brighter!
"Rumble!"
A loud noise erupted in the high sky, and an extreme power burst out, blasting the black gas-formed fox face to pieces.
The black gas was completely eliminated, and the surrounding people also fainted, unconscious.
Before Zhao Huai could relax, Yan Jing's voice came from inside the house again.
"Brother Zhao! Come and take a look!"
He transformed into a blur, entering the room to see Yan Jing pointing at the person in front of him with a surprised expression.
It was Li Yanqing, who had been lying on the bed.
He had actually sat up!
However, the twisting of his body was quite strange, his head shaking incessantly, and his eyeballs were also turning white.
Zhao Huai narrowed his eyes slightly, gripping the sword in his hand.
"My son! What's wrong with you!"
Li Chong looked at Li Yanqing in this state, his face filled with grief, and he wanted to rush forward to hug his son.
But Yan Jing directly grabbed him.
"Don't go over there, something's wrong with him!"
"Li Yanqing's" head twisted in a strange way, and a hoarse voice came out towards Zhao Huai:
"So there's a cultivator, it was you who interrupted the connection between me and the puppet with a Dao Talisman."
"Indeed."
Zhao Huai said calmly.
"Good, very good! Do you think you're very powerful?"
"Dealing with you is more than enough."
Zhao Huai's face was as still as water, and he immediately retorted.
"Hahahaha!"
A terrifying, dry laugh came from Li Yanqing's throat, as if mocking Zhao Huai.
"What big words, just wait, Jin Province City will soon be next, how long can you humans be proud."
In the next instant, Zhao Huai's figure disappeared from the spot.
When he reappeared, Zhao Huai held his sword behind his back with one hand, and the Soul-Subduing Mind Technique in his mind was activated again.
Transforming into a giant bell.
"Dong!"
The vast sound of the bell could cleanse the mind and body, and dispel demonic nature.
As expected, under the infusion of the bell sound, a black gas left Li Yanqing's body.
Li Yanqing lost his strength and fell back on the bed.
Zhao Huai quickly tapped all the meridians on Li Yanqing's body, and sprinkled Dao Talismans around the bed.
After doing all this, Zhao Huai, who was relieved, was just about to speak.
A bright orange light entered his mind.
Arousing his high attention.
Taking a closer look.
