Just as no one knew how to continue this conversation with Ye Guhsing, in the conference hall with the wide Shangguan Clan, a black-robed old man suddenly walked out from a room at the back of the hall.
"Granduncle!" Upon seeing this person, the Shangguan Clan who were previously in a daze immediately stood up.
"Sit down." The old man waved his hand indifferently, and then swept his gaze towards Ye Guhsing who was at the side: "Esteemed guest, it is extremely rude to welcome you from afar."
"This is?" Ye Guhsing asked.
"Sir, this is my family's great-uncle, and he is also my Shangguan Clan's Second Elder, Shangguan Yan." Lord introduced immediately.
"Ye Guhsing greets you, fellow daoist." Ye Guhsing cupped his hands and greeted her.
"You are too kind, sir." The old man smiled slightly, then invited: "Mister, you've worked hard all the way from the Tree Sea City. If you don't mind, why don't you go to the back of the mountain, where this old man lives, and drink a cup of green tea?"
"It's my honor!" Ye Guhsing replied with a smile. From the moment the old man appeared, Ye Guhsing could tell that he was very strong, at least in the middle stage of the Body Fusion stage.
Someone with that kind of strength should have a more detailed understanding of Sky Demon Servant. Therefore, Ye Guhsing did not reject his invitation.
"Sir, please!" The old man extended his right hand in invitation.
Ye Guhsing did not push the matter. Under the lead of the old man, they passed through a side room at the back of the hall and headed towards the most mysterious location of the Shangguan Clan.
Compared to the luxurious front yard of Shangguan Clan, the rear mountain of his family was much simpler. The mountain wasn't high, and only seemed to be around a few hundred meters, but the trees on the mountain had all been meticulously selected.
From time to time, small houses built entirely out of straw would appear in the forest.
"Sir, these thatched cottages were built by people who have retired from the position of Patriarch or Elder throughout the generations of our Shangguan Clan. This mountain is also where we live. The black clad old man seemed to have seen through Ye Guhsing's thoughts, and explained.
Hearing Shangguan Yan's words, Ye Guhsing had a rough understanding of the Shangguan Clan's strength. Starting from the foot of the mountain, there were at least two hundred small thatched cottages, and even if the owners of 90% of the thatched cottages were no longer, it still meant that there were at least twenty or so surviving experts, and the weakest amongst them were probably at the late stage of the Martial Sovereign.
This kind of strength was nothing in the face of Barbarian World, at most, it was equivalent to a second-rate sect, but in a place like Five Elements Continent that was sealed off and even had the threat of the Sky Demons, preserving this kind of strength was extremely difficult.
Thinking to this, Ye Guhsing couldn't help but exclaim in admiration, "For a Daoists clan to be able to preserve such strength in such a vile environment, it's sufficient to say that Fellow Daoist's clan's Five Elements Continent is top-notch."
The clan members of the Shangguan Clan have to work hard to cultivate from the moment they were born. What we do is not to surpass other clans or sects, but to survive. This is the teachings of our ancestors since the establishment of our Shangguan Clan, so we, the later generation, do not dare to forget it.
"The greater the pressure, the greater the motivation. The potential of a human is forced out." Ye Guhsing nodded in agreement.
"Haha, it's a good thing that the greater the pressure, the greater the motivation. Sir's words are extremely incisive." Just as Ye Guhsing's words fell, a loud and clear voice came out from the top of the mountain. Then, a blue-robed old man walked over with a grey-clothed old man.
"Sir, these two are my Shangguan Clan's Great Elder Shangguan Ying and Third Elder Shangguan Yue. At the same time, they are also my big brother and Third Younger Brother." The moment he saw the blue-clothed old man, the black-robed old man that accompanied Ye Guhsing up the mountain, Shangguan Yan, immediately introduced him.
"Ye Guhsing greets the two dao friends!" Ye Guhsing cupped his hands and said.
"Sir is too courteous. I have already prepared some tea and would like to invite sir to enter the pavilion for a chat." Shangguan Ying, dressed in blue, invited them with a smile.
"You're disrespectful." Ye Guhsing returned the greeting, and then was the first one to step into the exquisite pavilion atop the mountain.
"Three elders, I believe the three of you already know why I have come this time. I wonder if the three of you can give me a definite answer." It looks like another disaster of the Black-winged Devil is coming soon, so time is of the essence, so this Ye needs the help of the Shangguan Clan. " After taking his seat, Ye Guhsing didn't have any form of concealment or courtesy as he went straight to the point.
"Sure!" Shangguan Ying nodded without hesitation. However, before this, this old man has many questions in his heart that he would like to consult with mister.
From the moment he came here, Ye Guhsing knew that if he wanted to obtain help from the Shangguan Clan, then he had to account for his identity. Thus, after hearing Shangguan Ying's words, Ye Guhsing nodded his head too: "Please speak!"
"Where did you come from, sir?" Shangguan Ying asked.
"Outer space, outside of the Five Elements Continent." Ye Guhsing replied without hiding anything.
"As expected!" The eyes of Shangguan Ying and the other two lit up. It seemed that their previous guess of Ye Guhsing's origins was correct.
"Is Mister going to completely solve the hidden danger in Black-winged Devil this time?" Shangguan Ying asked again.
"Yes, we have completely resolved it. I hope that after this time, the people from Five Elements Continent will not suffer the poison from the Black-winged Devil again." Ye Guhsing nodded.
"How?" Shangguan Ying asked again. After finishing the question, she stared at Ye Guhsing anxiously.
This is also the reason why I have come to the Shangguan Clan this time. I hope to find the source of the disaster from the information left behind by the Shangguan Clan seniors. "Yun Che said in a low voice. Ye Guhsing said.
"Sir, you mean that every time a Black-winged Devil disaster occurs, it will always be initiated by the leader behind the scenes. But that's not right. Why hasn't the head of the Black-winged Devil mentioned by Mister Yun Che appeared from the first time he appeared? We know that the Black-winged Devil needs to absorb the flesh and blood of our Human Clan to improve ourselves. Could it be that the Black-winged Devil leader is different from the other Black-winged Devil leaders? " Shangguan Ying asked doubtfully.
"Yes, it's different. In fact, the Black-winged Devil that you're talking about isn't the real name of these monsters, it's actually called Sky Demon Servant, and the leader of those monsters hiding in the shadows is a Sky Demon vassal. As for the above the Sky Demon vassal, that is the real Sky Demon. However, you don't need to worry about the Sky Demons. Each one of them is powerful enough to destroy the world. For the time being, they are not people we can deal with. It was formed from the parasitic remnants of a powerful Heavenly Demon Crystal left behind by a dead Heavenly Demon. If this Demonic Subordinate wanted to successfully evolve into a Demonic Lord, the only way would be to continuously absorb the souls of other creatures as well as the Essential Blood. " Ye Guhsing explained.
"Sky Demon, Sky Demon Servant!" After the three Shangguan brothers heard Ye Guhsing's explanation, all of their expressions became abnormally horrified. It felt like the monsters that they had dealt with for so many years, along with the elders who had died in battle, were not Black-winged Devil at all, but the servants of this powerful monster, the Sky Demon.
"A few servants caused our generations of experts to be nearly wiped out, but how powerful is that Demonic Subordinate that's hiding behind the scenes?" Shangguan Ying mumbled in a daze.
"You don't need to worry about that, I'll deal with the Demonic Subordinate. What I need now are the information about the two Black-winged Devil disasters you had, the more detailed the better. I need to find the whereabouts of the Demonic Subordinate through these." Ye Guhsing nodded and said.
"Then what if we can't find out the whereabouts of the Demonic Subordinate?" Shangguan Ying couldn't help but ask.
"Then there's only one way, kill!" Ye Guhsing's eyes flashed with a cold glint as he spoke.
"Kill?" The three Shangguan brothers looked at Ye Guhsing with suspicion.
"Yes, kill as many Sky Demon servants as possible who were sent out to hunt for food as possible. The higher the level, the better. I think that when it's alone, it won't be able to think of anything else." Ye Guhsing said with a cold smile.
"But, with just our Shangguan Family and you, Sir, we can't do this no matter what." Although he was not opposed to Ye Guhsing's suggestion, Shangguan Ying could not help but laugh bitterly when he thought about the actual situation.
I believe that since this matter concerns the life and death of Five Elements Continent, they will definitely not object to it. If they do not agree, then either they will be afraid of death, or these people will have already been mixed up with the Sky Demon Servants. "Su Yun said in a low voice. Ye Guhsing replied.
"Coexistence? This... This is impossible, after all, it's all Human Clan. " Shangguan Ying took a deep breath of cold air and stuttered.
"No, it's very possible. If it wasn't for this reason, I don't think you would have been able to lose that miserably in the first two exorcisms with your strength. You guys have more numbers than Black-winged Devil, so you guys also have more experts, even if you guys can't beat one person, three against one, or even five against one, how can you guys not be a match? Moreover, all of you do not know that the Sky Demon is different from us in Human Clan, and different even from all living beings. Its bloodthirsty, savage, and cold-blooded blood is carried out from the very bones without the slightest emotion. Not only that, it is also the most cunning living thing in this world. So, I definitely won't believe that no one in your Five Elements Continent has been bewitched by those Sky Demon servants. As for how many of them have actually been bewitched, that will depend on our luck. I hope this is a quantity that we can still control for the time being. " Ye Guhsing said with a serious face.
"This... "This …" Ye Guhsing's words were like a bomb, it momentarily stunned the three Shangguan Brothers and made their faces turn pale white.
"Mister, if what you say is true, then we can't trust anyone. If that's the case, how will we contact the others to deal with those Demonic servants?" Wouldn't any of our actions be able to escape the eyes of those Demonic Servants? " Shangguan Ying said helplessly after a long while, his face slightly recovered from his earlier anger.
"Sword Spirit, is there any way to test this?" Ye Guhsing did not reply Shangguan Ying, but pretended to look deep in thought. In reality, he was communicating with the Nine Dragons Sword Spirits in his heart.
"Little master, this kind of thing had happened before in the Great Wastelands World, so back then Old Master had researched a type of talisman that could easily differentiate whether or not the talisman was enchanted by the Sky Demon. This kind of talisman's production method is simple, as long as someone is near a person who has been bewitched by the Sky Demon, the talisman will react immediately." The Nine Dragons Sword Spirits replied.
"Can you make it?" Ye Guhsing asked.
"Yes. Prepare some high-quality spirit jade. I will make five for you one day later." The Sword Spirit replied.
"Alright, I'll pull you into Canglan Immortal Mansion. Take whatever materials you need yourself. I still have to organize the information regarding the Sky Demon Servant, let's see if I can find the whereabouts of that vassal. " Ye Guhsing replied, and then pulled the Nine Dragons Heaven Slaughter Sword spirit into the Canglan Immortal Mansion without understanding its emotions.
"How is it, has Mister thought of a way to deal with it?" After Ye Guhsing finished arranging the Sword Spirit, Shangguan Ying's voice suddenly sounded again. His tone sounded very anxious.
"Yes, I have a way to deal with this. Give me a day's time and I will refine a few talismans. These talismans can detect whether or not this person has been bewitched by the Heavenly Demon." Once bewitched, my suggestion is to kill them, or else they will become another group of Heavenly Demon servants or even vassal. " Ye Guhsing nodded and said.
"That's great, then we can contact a few more families and sects. Sigh, my Five Elements Continent has been through many calamities, and the seniors back then died unjustly." Shangguan Ying said excitedly, but then he seemed to have thought of something and his face instantly became sad and gloomy.
"First Elder, you don't need to be sad. As long as we get rid of those devils, those Demon Slayer Warriors who sacrificed themselves will be happy." Ye Guhsing comforted her.
"Right, the blood of our ancestors will not be lost in vain. This time, even if we have to die, we have to completely eliminate the calamity." Shangguan Ying said resolutely.
"Third Younger Brother, immediately order some people to arrange a room for mister to rest, and also pass all the relevant information regarding Black-winged Devil and whether they are Sky Demon servants to mister. I hope it will be of some help to Mister. " After thinking deeply, Shangguan Ying suddenly instructed the Third Younger Brother Shangguan Yue who was beside him.
"Then many thanks Elders, you can rest assured. One day later, I will hand over the completed talismans to you. I believe that with this, you can contact those who are truly willing to fight the Heavenly Demon." Ye Guhsing cupped his hands in thanks, and then followed Shangguan Yue down the mountain.2

The first one arrived. Zhang Xuan congratulated himself first. After reading the number of words in the book, he realized that he had unknowingly reached two million. This was a huge breakthrough. The next target was three million words. He hoped that everyone would support him. There was more time today, so he decided to keep his promise. If everything went well, it would be the fourth fragment of the night.
