The group ran very fast, and in just a moment they disappeared from sight.

Seeing this, Fang Zelin withdrew his gaze and turned his attention to the fox spirits in front of him.

At this moment, the fox spirits in front of them were already trembling with fear.

I initially thought a handsome young man had arrived, but little did I know, this handsome young man turned into a vicious wolf the moment he walked in.

At this point, the group of fox spirits dared not act recklessly and cautiously hid to the side.

"It seems quite a few merchants have died here, and yet none of you fellow cultivators have noticed. You're quite adept at hiding."

But thinking about it, the rest of the fellow cultivators should all be cultivating in the mountains.

Therefore, it's normal that they don't know about the fox spirit in this area.

"Immortal, spare my life!"

Upon hearing Fang Zelin's words, all the little demons present immediately knelt down and bowed repeatedly to Fang Zelin.

Seeing this, Fang Zelin didn't say anything more, but instead asked about something else.

"Recently, demons from other realms have come to this place, plotting against the Northern Liang. Are you aware of this?"

Fang Zelin spoke, his eyes were fixed on the demons in front of him, trying to glean something from their faces.

To Fang Zelin's slight disappointment, however, he was under his watchful gaze.

The fairies in front of them were all stunned for a moment, then exchanged glances and shook their heads.

We are unaware of this matter.

"Yes, plotting against cultivators? We don't have that kind of ability. If we did, we wouldn't be doing this here."

Before he could finish speaking, the other person suddenly realized what he had said.

The immortal in front of them already disapproved of their actions, and to bring it up again now would be tantamount to courting death.

Thinking of this, she quickly shut her mouth and didn't mention the matter again.

Fang Zelin frowned, but then he noticed a slight change in expression on the face of the woman who was the leader of these fox spirits.

"So you must know some inside information?"

Fang Zelin looked at the vixen in front of him and then snorted coldly.

The other fox spirits all seemed fine, but this person in front of her must know something.

"Previously, a member of the Demon Race race did come here and told me about this place, but upon hearing that it involved dealing with cultivators, I immediately refused."

The fox spirit in front of her felt a chill run down her spine when she saw Fang Zelin's gaze fall on her.

At this moment, she dared not hide anything.

He already hated Fang Zelin in front of him; if he were to lie now, he would probably die right here.

With that thought in mind, she dared not hide it any longer.

Fang Zelin's eyes narrowed slightly upon hearing this.

This is exactly the same story as the guy we encountered on Pine Mountain, so it seems the other party wasn't lying.

only

"You said you refused? Aren't you afraid they'll come after you for trouble?"

The tree spirits on Pine Mountain were all worried about this, but the other party didn't seem afraid at all.

The fox spirit in front of him hesitated for a moment upon hearing this, and then spoke.

"That's because after I refused, I promised to offer them one hundred young boys and girls, and only then did they stop pursuing the matter."

One hundred boys and girls?

Fang Zelin was startled upon hearing this, and immediately rattled off a hundred or so.

Little do they know how many parents behind these children are heartbroken because of this?

"How many children have you sent away?"

Fang Zelin took a deep breath and stared at the fox spirit in front of him, asking a question.

If the other party utters even a single lie, he will kill them with a single sword strike.

"So far, we've only arrested thirty people; they haven't been handed over to the other side yet."

The fox spirit sensed the hostility in Fang Zelin's tone and quickly offered an explanation.

Fang Zelin breathed a slight sigh of relief upon hearing this, and then turned his head to take a closer look.

I hadn't looked closely before, but now that I'm taking a closer look, I realize there's something vaguely off about the area beneath the house.

Seeing this, Fang Zelin didn't hesitate and directly broke open the floor.

Below, I saw a cellar.

The children in the cellar, hearing the noise, looked up in fright.

Fang Zelin took a closer look and, seeing that all the children were safe and sound, finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Perhaps to make the children look healthy, they were all dressed like this, except for their faces being a little dirty and their clothes not having been washed for a while.

Aside from that, it's alright.

Upon seeing this scene, Fang Zelin turned to look at the fox spirits.

The Bearing the Heavens behind him had already begun to hum.

"One last question, do you know where that fairy is?"

"Have no idea."

The lead fox spirit sensed something was wrong and, after answering, quickly continued, "Please, Immortal Master, spare our lives! If you're willing to spare our lives, we'll serve you like cattle or horses from now on!"

The leading fox spirit could sense the powerful sword aura emanating from Bearing the Heavens even from a great distance.

In this situation, she was already quite frightened and immediately began to beg for mercy.

Upon hearing this, the other fox spirits also hurriedly began to kowtow and beg for mercy.

But Fang Zelin wasn't about to let these vixens go.

With a wave of his hand, the small seal characters that had covered the area immediately flew down and bound all the demons tightly, preventing them from making a sound.

Seeing this, Fang Zelin waved to the children below as well.

Before the children could say anything, they became sleepy and drowsy.

"Come with me, I'll take you home."

Fang Zelin waved his hand, summoning all the children out of the cellar.

Once they reached the ground, they saw all the children following behind Fang Zelin.

Fang Zelin had just stepped out of the wooden house when he saw golden light shimmering inside, and all the fox spirits were annihilated in the golden light.

"We don't even know if you're alive or dead; we can't possibly go door to door asking."

After Fang Zelin led the children away from the woods, he looked back at the children behind him.

After a moment's thought, he made a hand Hand Seals, "Please summon the Night Wandering God."

After Fang Zelin finished casting the spell, he gently tapped the ground with his right foot.

The next moment, a golden light disappeared into the ground and vanished.

A moment later, two figures appeared in front of him and hurried towards Fang Zelin.

"Anling, the Night Wandering God, greets the True Person!"

The summoned Night Wandering God only glanced at Fang Zelin briefly before quickly clasping his hands in a salute.

Anyone who can summon them using Underworld Bureau methods must be extraordinary!

Fang Zelin nodded slightly at the two Night Wandering God in front of him, then pointed to the children behind him.

"These children were just rescued from the demons. I don't know their names or where they live, so I'll have to trouble you two to take them back to the Underworld Bureau to check before sending them home."
