After giving Wu Cunyi his instructions, the gloom over Wu's head dissipated.

This ordeal has passed.

If nothing unexpected happens, this person should be able to enjoy their later years in peace.

Daoist Lü and Fang Zelin discussed matters of cultivation as they walked along the street.

Fang Zelin took this opportunity to learn a lot of basic knowledge about cultivation, and he felt that he benefited greatly from it.

In winter, the sun sets quickly, and by dawn, the streets are already lined with rows of lanterns.

Bright red lanterns were hung up, and the surrounding teahouses and restaurants were still serving guests.

In such chaotic times, it is rare to find such a prosperous place.

However, this also shows why that great demon had its eyes on this place.

A prosperous land, a place where the Human Race Karmic Fortune gather and flourish.

With the Human Race prospering, it's natural that their fortune is abundant, which attracts the covetous eyes of powerful demons.

In some remote places, however, some ordinary powerful demons would look down on them.

"Senior, Xuanyang did not find any trace of that great demon in the place he searched."

"The place Zhenke sought was also like this."

"Yang Yu is the same."

The returning disciples of Jade Void Mountain stepped forward to report the results of their search that day.

Fang Zelin frowned as he listened, and took out a map, asking the disciples of Jade Void Mountain to draw out the routes they had found that day.

Then he called the waiter and asked him to bring the dishes. After that, he carefully studied the route.

The disciples of Jade Void Mountain were fast on their feet, but their search was equally thorough.

On many occasions, he encountered fellow disciples.

The route was completely unpredictable, so it seems unlikely that the great demon had prior knowledge of the situation and therefore hid.

"Fellow Daoist has been here for so long and still hasn't found it. We've only just arrived and already expect to find it? That's truly wishful thinking."

Fang Zelin stared at the map for a long time, trying to find a good hiding place for a powerful demon.

Looking around, he couldn't find a place to hide.

"Hey, this is different."

Daoist Lü waved his hand, "If I were to search for this great demon alone, the demon might know in advance where I would be looking and then avoid me, making it difficult for me to find it."

"With so many of you together, even if that great demon intends to hide, it will be very difficult."

Daoist Lü felt that the reason he hadn't been able to find them was probably because the other party was secretly watching him.

Then, knowing the route you need to take in advance, you can avoid it.

That's why he spent so long without finding it.

Fang Zelin thought it made some sense.

"By the way, what's the origin of that powerful demon?"

After talking for so long, Fang Zelin had forgotten to ask where the other party came from.

"It's a fox demon."

Daoist Lü said in a deep voice, "This fox demon's origin should be a black fox, but it ran too fast at the time, and I didn't get a clear look."

Fox demon?

This thing is incredibly cunning; if it really wants to hide, it might be very difficult to find.

Fang Zelin frowned as he thought of this.

However, even if it's difficult to find, we can't give up.

The next day.

Before dawn, the disciples of Jade Void Mountain had already set out to search for the fox demon.

But as the sun set, the fox demon was still nowhere to be seen.

Fang Zelin led his men to search again, but after seven days of repeated searches, they still could not find any trace of the fox demon.

The fox demon seemed to have vanished into thin air.

During this time, Fang Zelin once again sought help from the city City God, and the wandering Night Wandering God searched day and night, but they found not a single clue.

The fact that they couldn't find any trace of the fox demon for seven consecutive days was a blow to the disciples of Jade Void Mountain.

Along the way, even the fairies we encountered that were hiding quite well were still found after a little time.

But this fox demon seemed to be completely detached from this place.

Fang Zelin sat in the teahouse, his eyes sweeping over the pedestrians below, but he still found nothing.

Fang Zelin poured a cup of tea for the Daoist Lü next to him and took a sip.

His expression was somewhat grave. "This delay in our journey is rather unfortunate."

"Yes, but if this demon isn't eliminated, the Human Race Karmic Fortune that it has devoured will never return."

Daoist Lü also turned somewhat solemn at this moment.

His previous inability to find it himself could likely be attributed to a shortage of manpower.

But now, even with so many people Fang Zelin brought, they still can't find it, which is rather strange.

Fang Zelin pondered for a moment after thinking about this.

He was still wondering how the other party had managed to hide it so well.

Just then, Fang Zelin's expression suddenly changed as he heard words like "Yuanqing Prefecture" coming from the side.

"No way?"

Fang Zelin was startled, then his expression suddenly changed.

"Fellow Daoist, have you thought of something?"

Seeing Fang Zelin's expression change, Daoist Lü, who was standing to the side, also noticed and immediately asked.

"Does that fox demon possess the ability to steal power?"

Thinking of this, Fang Zelin quickly asked Daoist Lü.

"I didn't notice, but a fox demon of this level of skill should be able to do it."

After thinking for a moment, Daoist Lü was also somewhat uncertain.

"Perhaps I know where they went."

Upon realizing this, Fang Zelin's heart sank, and he immediately got up to return to the inn.

"I need to go back and check. Zhenke and Xuanyang will come with me; the rest of you continue the search."

After leaving a hurried message, Fang Zelin headed towards the inn.

After a short while, Fang Zelin returned to the inn. After instructing the two men to guard his room, Fang Zelin went back inside.

"I need to go back and check things out. You might not be able to come with me. If you can't, stay in your room and don't move around."

Fang Zelin took off Bearing the Heavens, gave her some kind words of advice, and then closed his eyes to prepare to go back.

Having not been back for a long time, Fang Zelin felt a little disoriented after closing his eyes.

After spending some time regaining his senses, Fang Zelin then felt a tearing sensation in his body.

If that fox demon really did take over the body of Blazing Summer person, it's uncertain whether it would be able to return to Blazing Summer.

Fang Zelin wasn't entirely sure about these things, but he still had to go back and check.

When the tearing sensation subsided, Fang Zelin opened his eyes again, only to find himself in a completely familiar room.

Looking around at the rooms, Fang Zelin suddenly felt as if he had been transported to another world.

Upon closer inspection, Bearing the Heavens and the gourd on his body had not followed, but the abundant Spiritual Power within his body reassured Fang Zelin somewhat.

That fox demon was likely still severely injured; with his cultivation level, he should be able to kill it.

Thinking of this, Fang Zelin picked up his phone from the table next to him, wanting to look up the news about recent murder cases.

He felt that the fox demon shouldn't have been able to resist.

If a murder had indeed occurred, the scene must have been extremely gruesome.

The room was covered in dust, and Fang Zelin's phone was dead, its screen dim.

The wheelchair still lay quietly to the side.

Sorry, only two chapters today.
