Chapter 233 - Gathering for Cultivation (33) (2/2)

Ming Shu scanned the two groups. “Second question, why are you all chasing me?”

The elite devil sneered and didn’t mind the question. “You discovered it on Lingjian Peak already. Our aim is your blood.”

Ming Shu nodded her head and looked at the humans.

The square-faced man kept quiet. His expression seemed forced.

The elite devil asked, “If I answer for them, can you let one of us go?”

“Yes.”

“You are nice to talk to,” the elite devil muttered and opened his mouth before the square-faced man could shout at him. “They are from the Baihu Sect. Have you heard of the Baihu Sect? They are the mastermind behind the extermination of the Xuan family. Do you know why they exterminated the Xuan family?”

Among all the sects, the Yin Sect was at the top of the pyramid.

Baihu Sect was slightly below the Yin Sect in terms of ranking. It was a very powerful sect too.

“Tell me.” Ming Shu shifted into a more comfortable position and sat down.

“Hah, these people want to prevent us from getting the blood of the Xuan family. That way, we won’t be able to break through the boundaries of our world and create havoc here. Hence, they killed everyone from the Xuan family so that no one could open the boundary.”

The evil clansmen didn’t know who exterminated the Xuan family at first. However, they picked up information as they were looking for Xuan Ji and found out some things.

“Stop talking nonsense!” the square-faced man shouted and denied, “It was the evil clansmen that killed the entire Xuan family. You are accusing us.”

“Accusing you?” The elite devil laughed. “When have we ever denied what we did before? Look at him, this is what humans do. Tsk tsk… such a nice show of internal fighting.”

The mockery on the elite devil’s face was entirely visible.

Ming Shu glanced at the elite devil and tilted her head to look at the square-faced man. “Why are you all trying to kill me? Shouldn’t you be protecting me?”

These people’s IQ was quite low.

The square-faced man sneered and said bluntly, “There was news that you were on the same side as the evil clansmen. If evil clansmen are freed, normal humans will suffer. We need to get rid of anything that could cause danger for the sake of everyone’s safety.”

“The Xuan family deserved to die for the sake of everyone?”

Ming Shu’s tone was light-hearted. However, everyone felt a chill run down their spines.

“You colluded with the evil clansmen,” the square-faced man accused.

“So you all were the ones who killed the entire Xuan family?”

“That has nothing to do with us.” The square-faced man continued denying it. “We are chasing you because you colluded with the evil clansmen.”

“Oh, then who are the ones who exterminated the Xuan family? Ghosts? The extermination is such a big thing. You all were not shocked over it and even tried to kill me. Do you think I am stupid?”

The square-faced man showed a long face.

Yan Yin was injured. He thought that Xuan Ji was easy to deal with. He never imagined that Xuan Ji could still triumph with so many of them here. If he knew, he wouldn’t have been so outright in his attack.

Ming Shu smiled. “I am asking one last time, who killed the Xuan family?”

All the devils turned to look at the square-faced man, silently casting their votes to him.

Ming Shu threw away the apple core. She had an answer.

“Last question, how did you all find me?”

The elite devil’s eyes darkened. He didn’t want to answer this question.

The square-faced man kept silent too. He was thinking about how to turn the situation around.

Ming Shu waited indifferently. I have a lot of time.

The elite devil spoke after a while. “Finding you was a bonus. We were looking for the devil king and noticed his aura in the Yin Sect. After that, you all came out and the devil king’s aura got stronger. When we chased it, we realized that it was you. You know what happened after that. However, I don’t know how they found your location. You have to ask him.”
