The owner of Yaowang Valley is a patient with depression

"What happened?" Yu Yao followed the leading man, Yu Ling, the manager of the Yu clan branch, through the front yard. Behind them, except for the disciples Yu Yao brought with her, two teams of people from the branch formed a guarding posture, protecting the Yu clan disciples in the middle.

This obvious defensive formation, coupled with the previous strangeness, naturally made Yu Yao understand that something was wrong.

"Our master was murdered." Yu Ling was silent for a while before he said this.

"When did it happen?" Yu Yao frowned. The Third Elder didn't say there was such a thing! As far as he knew, the head of this branch was also a combined saint, at the peak level, and he was also the head of the Yu clan branch. Who could have done this with the support of the Yu clan?

The disciples of the main family who followed Yu Yao couldn't help but gasp. This was a big deal!

"It happened this morning." Yu Ling looked solemn, and upon closer inspection he seemed slightly tired.

No wonder......

"The thing is, Wu'an City has been uneasy lately. Every night, unknown mysterious monsters appear, specifically targeting cultivators. Once caught, no trace of their bodies is left, and neither the living nor the dead are seen. In recent days, many people from the Yu Clan have also been bewitched. We have been searching for them to no avail, so the head of the family went to investigate personally." As Leader Yu spoke, the atmosphere became more solemn, and the faces of the two teams seemed to be shrouded in shadows.

"This morning, our patrol team was checking the surroundings as usual, and we found the body of the head of the family in the dark street behind the courtyard." Thinking of the appearance of the head of the family's body, Yu Ling couldn't help but gasp.

"Take me to see." Yu Yao said. She wanted to see who this person was!

Yu Yao and his group followed Leader Yu to the back hall, where they saw a crystal coffin placed in the center of the spacious and bright hall. Inside the crystal coffin was the burly body of a middle-aged man.

The body had not been treated too much at this time, except that the blood on the face was slightly wiped off. The torn clothes were covered with blood, and it could be seen that there were many scars on the body. The man's face was even more horrible, with many scratch-like scars, one eye was hollowed out, and there was a bloody hole on the top of his head.

Yu Yao pushed open the crystal coffin and carefully examined the corpse. Yu Ling stood respectfully to one side, watching Yu Yao's movements.

The others also stood respectfully on both sides, making the atmosphere even more solemn.

"What do you think?" Yu Yao looked at Yu Ling.

"It is still unclear whether the death of the patriarch is related to the recent disappearances in Wu'an City. After all, no body has been found in the disappearances so far, and their lives and deaths are unknown. However, I think there is a high possibility that the death of the patriarch is related to this incident." Yu Ling's words were flawless, in other words, it was nonsense.

He is indeed a veteran.

As soon as she entered the door, Yu Yao discovered that she didn't seem to see many ordinary people from the clan. Even now that she had revealed her identity, only the steward and two teams of family guards appeared. These two teams of family guards seemed to be very obedient to her, a little too obedient.

"Where are the others?" Yu Yao asked suddenly.

Yu Ling's eyes flickered for a moment, and then he said, "The head of the family was murdered, and they are very angry. They said they want to find the murderer to avenge the head of the family."

"There is no news at all, where can they find it?" Yu Yao asked.

"This... They are too angry right now, alas. You know, the old patriarch treated everyone equally when he was alive, and he was clear about rewards and punishments. Everyone respected him very much, but I didn't expect... Alas!" Yu Ling sighed.

"I heard that the old patriarch has a daughter. I wonder where she is now?" Yu Yao's gaze shot straight at Yu Ling, as if she wanted to see through him at a glance. This gaze was like a sharp sword that would pierce the heart if one was not careful.

"Miss...is heartbroken. She's taking people to look for clues." Yu Ling said calmly, but her hands unconsciously retracted into her sleeves.

Suddenly, a black spirit with a cold glow attacked Yu Yao's face. Yu Yao's expression turned cold, and she pushed away the attack with her little hand.

"Go!" Following Yu Ling's order, the two teams attacked Yu Yao and his group without hesitation.

Upon seeing this, the disciples of the main family led by Yu Yao went forward without hesitation, while Yu Yao and Yu Ling flew into the air.

"Hearing about him is not as good as meeting him in person. He is indeed a capable person." Yu Ling was not afraid at all even when he was exposed.

Yu Yao frowned, this guy really has a trump card.

Yu Ling threw a small black object into the air. As soon as the object left his hand, it turned into a huge black net and then disappeared into the air.

"what!"

"What's going on! My hands won't obey me."

"My body is so stiff."

Following the voices of the crowd, the sound of someone being injured followed.

"I didn't expect that this abandoned child who had long been forgotten by the master would attract you. I'm really glad that I made sufficient preparations!" Yu Ling laughed proudly.

"You're responsible for all the disappearances here, you beast!" Yu Yao sneered, then crossed her hands with her fingers spread out, and pushed downwards. The air vibrated violently, and a powerful pressure rushed towards the heads of the people below.

This force swept through all the Feathered People and fell on the two teams of guards, and then tragic screams were heard.

"What? How could this happen?" Yu Ling looked at Yu Yao in shock and took a step back. How could she not be affected by the Yin Xie Net, and...wait...

"How did you find out the flaw?" You have to know that I am already the highest-level human-faced beast, no different from ordinary people. Even the evil energy in my spiritual power can be hidden very well. How did she find out?

Yu Yao didn't bother to pay attention to him at all, and shouted to the people below: "Before I deal with him, you guys should deal with these human-faced beasts. Those who can't deal with them can go back to the Yu Clan."

"Yes! Young Master!" Everyone looked at the human-faced beast in front of them. Although there were countless questions in their minds, the most important thing now was to solve these problems!

Therefore, everyone rushed towards these "guards" with red eyes as if they were injected with chicken blood. They couldn't let the young master push them back, that would be a great shame!

"Tell me, where is Yu Yunyin?" Yu Yao looked at Yu Ling, the human-faced beast. Yu Ling and the two teams of guards should have been harmed by the human-faced beast, and these human-faced beasts transformed into their appearance.

"Hmph, of course he's dead." As "Yu Ling" spoke, his aura suddenly increased. His body gradually became taller and taller. His limbs kept stretching, presenting a strange length. His body became sunken, and his skull became deformed. His scalp was torn, revealing the black skull inside. His eye sockets were sunken into a big hole, and his huge mouth was pulled to the sides, revealing a mouthful of sharp fangs.

"Yu Ling" howled towards the sky, making a sharp and piercing cry, and then all the guards below slowly deformed, revealing their original faces.

"How many people must these human-faced beasts have killed before they can adapt to the environment here! It's so scary." A weak disciple looked at the monster in front of him with some fear.

His talent was average, or even more average than average. He had no talent for alchemy, and his cultivation was average and low. He was not valued by his clan, and he didn't even have any resources. It could be said that he had never seen any big scenes, let alone the terrifying demons from the Devil Realm.

His heart was beating fast, but his mind told him that he had to be strong-willed and live up to the young master's trust in him and her cultivation of him. Why did the young master choose the ten slowest ones to keep by her side? Wasn't it to give them a chance? He couldn't let her down, nor could he let himself down!

"Come on! You dirty and filthy things! I'm not afraid of you!" He rushed forward with a scream, and then more screams appeared. Everyone put away the fear in their eyes, and replaced it with a strong flame!
