After some discussion, everyone decided that the top priority was to go out and take a look first. The information they could get from being trapped in the flower building was too limited.

So Ruan Li, the only rich man, went to the old madam and prepared to redeem his life for everyone.

They were all handymen and were worthless to the madam, but he didn't let them go so easily. The madam directly asked for a price, making it clear that he wanted to kill them.

Ruan Li silently calculated her inventory of spirit stones. It was enough, but she couldn't use it all at once. Otherwise, if there were still places where spirit stones were needed in the future, it would be too passive.

She struggled for a while and decided to redeem two people first and go out to see the situation. Mo Qingqing and Qiunan stayed, and naturally Wei Min, the top one, had to stay too - the money to redeem him alone was enough for the four of them.

After leaving Hongluan Tower, there were houses in all directions, but there were not many people walking on the street, and they were all monks in the Yunchen Realm. They walked in a hurry and looked alert, as if they were on guard against something at any time.

"It seems that the news about the rampant demons here is true."

In fact, Baili Yue has never seen a real demon clan. He only knows that after the death of the demon king a hundred years ago, the demon realm was often in turmoil and civil wars were frequent. Therefore, they rarely came to the monks' realm to cause trouble.

The two of them followed the footsteps of several monks and found a place where a notice was posted. There were more than a dozen reward orders issued by the city lord's palace on it. Each of them was a murder case.

Ruan Li glanced at it a few times and gradually frowned.

Here is a list of the evil things the demons have done in the city in recent days, including the succubus that sucked up the cultivation of more than a dozen people, the infant-eating demon that kidnapped eight babies, and the poking out of dozens of graves. The corpse eater...

"Junior sister, this seems to be our mission this time."

Bailiyue pointed to the nameplate with fonts showing on his waist and said, this mission is obviously to wipe out the demons in the city, and points will be calculated based on the head.

The attack power of the demons in Xiaotiandi is closest to actual combat conditions, but it is also subject to some restrictions. As long as the nameplate is crushed in time, a life can be saved. If in reality, the number of casualties among the disciples if they really confront the demons is difficult to estimate.

There should be many bounty orders posted on this wall. They arrived late, and the tasks left behind were all more difficult. Of course, if they could complete them, the scores they would get would be considerable.

Ruan Li tore into two pieces of paper that offered a reward for the Baby Eater. She did not ignore the date mark at the end of the reward order. The date written on it was more than 100 years ago.

This happened in a certain city more than 100 years ago. At that time, some monks also accepted the reward order.

"Let's go and do the mission."

Demons, like monks, also practice different ways, but their cultivation methods are all bloody and brutal. Their cultivation has no hierarchy, and their status is earned through strength. From Demon Soldier to Demon Lord, since the last Demon Lord, After the destruction, the Demon Realm has not elected a Demon Lord for 300 years, and several Demon Lords have been fighting back and forth to no avail.

The low-level demons and the medium-level demons are very clearly divided in their cultivation methods. They have special preferences like devouring babies and devouring corpses. When their cultivation reaches a certain level, they will directly seize the soul and drain their spiritual power.

Ruan Li thought about the information about the demons that she had obtained from many places, and randomly knocked on the door of a closed room.

After knocking on the door for a long time, the other person slowly came over to open the door, only opening it a little, and cautiously opened the door with a low voice.

"Who?"

Baili came closer and said, "Auntie, we have issued a reward. Do you have a baby at home?"

Probably he was decent-looking and looked more like a serious monk. The old woman hesitated for a moment and said, "But -"

She thought of something and suddenly opened the door, "Come in, our child is not yet one month old, it is always good to have more people to protect him."

More people?

Ruan Li raised her eyebrows halfway and looked at Ning Huaishu and Yue Man in the room.

...so many people.In addition to acquaintances, there were many people standing crowded together in the corner of the hall. When everyone saw the people from Penglai and Hehuan Sect, they wanted to give up participating in this mission, but they still held a bit of luck, thinking that if something happened Can you pick up leaks?So I stayed.

"What a coincidence, everyone is here."

Yue Man rolled his eyes blankly, "There are only a few Baby Devourers in total, so many people are not enough."

Two disciples came from the Hehuan Sect, but Ning Huaishu was the only one in Penglai, who probably split up with Bai Qianqian and the others.

Ruan Li stood next to Yue Man and said in a sweet tone, "Sister Yue, what are your identities here?"

"I won't tell you," Yue Man remained unmoved and extremely vigilant. She had seen Ruan Li's clever little mind, so to be on the safe side, she decided not to reveal any information.

Ruan Li pretended to be sad, "We are also in a relationship where we share weal and woe. Sister-in-law, you are too estranged. How about we make a bet?"

"What bet?"

"It's a bet on which of us can catch the Baby Eater, and whoever wins will reveal his identity to the other."

Yue Man was a little tempted, and the junior sister behind her pulled her sleeves and whispered to dissuade her, "Senior sister——"

Stop gambling, senior sister!
"Okay, I'll bet you."

Yue Man ignored her junior sister's advice and resolutely agreed. She had a higher level of cultivation than Ruan Li and there was no reason to lose to her.

Ruan Li smiled and said, "Then it's a deal."

Taking advantage of this great opportunity, Baili Yue sneaked into the crowd skillfully and whispered, "Let's open a small bet, who will win? Do you want to participate?"

"I bet that the Acacia Sect's people will win, two spiritual stones."

"A spiritual stone, bet on the Hehuan Sect."

"Acacia Sect..."

Although his junior sister was looked down upon, Baili Yue was still grinning from ear to ear and had no doubt that Ruan Li would lose. At some point, his trust in Ruan Li had reached a level that was difficult for others to reach.

Ning Huaishu, who was left out, clenched the hilt of his sword and felt very dazzled when he saw Ruan Li chatting and joking with others.

Ruan Li would rather associate with people from the Hehuan Sect than take a look at him, but Ning Huaishu felt that he had done nothing to make her hate him so much.

If it was because he didn't intercede for her at the beginning, then Ning Huaishu could apologize. He hoped that even if Ruan Li left Penglai, they could still have a harmonious relationship.

He thought for a long time and finally spoke, deliberately putting down some airs.

"Ruan Li..."

"Wow-"

The baby's cry overlapped with Ning Huaishu's voice, making his voice sound so weak and without any sense of existence.

Although the cry quickly faded away, everyone's expressions were condensed and they looked around warily, fearing that the baby's cry would attract the Baby Eater.
