257: Chapter 257 Mo Quan Arrives

Blood Demons primarily devour blood.

Some weak Cultivators, unable to resist this devouring power, would have their blood flow accelerate until their bodies burst.

Ye Mo expanded his Concept, controlling these few Blood Demons.

Afterward, he set up a teleportation Formation gate.

In less than half an hour, tens of thousands of Blood Demons surged toward Ye Mo from all directions.

Ye Mo remained motionless, looking up at the sea surface, allowing these Blood Demons to attack the Restriction.

As the number of Blood Demons increased, the Restriction seemed to loosen slightly.

Ye Mo remained unmoved.

About a quarter of an hour later, a figure appeared above the sea surface.

Ye Mo curled his lips and instantly entered the teleportation Formation gate.

At this moment, Ye Mo could basically confirm that it was Demon Son Wu Cheng who had attracted these Blood Demons.

"I still have over a million High-Grade Spirit Stones. Let's see who can outlast whom!"

Ye Mo found another island and continued refining the treasure ship.

Zhang Hao and the other two watched for any movement outside the Formation.

"Is Master being a bit stubborn? Wouldn't it be better to refine it back at the Sect?"

"Master is worried about being discovered by those big shots while refining the treasure ship."

"That's true. What if those big shots have a hobby of peeping? Master's cultivation level might be exposed."

"That's not the only reason. During this period, fewer Cultivators from Tianshui City have entered the Forbidden Spirit Sea. Obviously, they are still investigating. We should wait until this storm passes."

Half a month later.

Ye Mo had already escaped many times on his own.

Of the over one million High-Grade Spirit Stones, only five hundred thousand remained.

On February 1st, the treasure ship was finally successfully refined.

spiritual power value: 17100

Cultivation amplification: 1960

Lifespan: 110

Ye Mo's cultivation, combined with the Great Derivation Dao Body, had already surpassed the Early Stage of Body Integration.

"It's about time to go back."

Demon Son Wu Cheng had never stopped searching for Ye Mo. Hunting down the Demonic Cultivator was proving difficult.

Ye Mo thought to himself that it wouldn't be too late to come back once he became stronger.

Ye Mo stepped onto the treasure ship, then threw out tens of thousands of High-Grade Spirit Stones. The next second, he appeared ten thousand miles away.

In Tianshui City, at the Law Enforcement Hall, several Elders were sitting in the meeting hall.

In one month, they had basically checked all ten million Cultivators in Tianshui City, but they had made no progress.

They did, however, catch a few Demonic Cultivator moles.

"There are only two possibilities now. First, Sect Leader Xu Geng was killed by a Soul Transformation expert, though that is unlikely. Second, a Void Refining expert, or even a Body Integration expert, has performed Possession on someone, which is why we haven't found them. I suggest we apply to the Sect for the Sky-Peering Mirror to investigate their Primordial Spirit."

Fifth Elder Lu Dong spoke up.

The Sky-Peering Mirror was different from the Spirit-Peering Mirror; it could directly see the Primordial Spirit within the Sea of Consciousness.

"I suggest you keep your suggestions to yourself. We only have a few Sky-Peering Mirrors in the Thunder God Sect. We couldn't check all the Cultivators in Tianshui City in ten years."

Third Elder Yu Wei said with a sneer.

"Yu Wei, what do you mean? Are you suggesting we just let the murderer go free and do nothing?"

Lu Dong was retorted and his face immediately darkened.

"Lu Dong, can you stop bootlicking? The one who died was just Zeng Mingxu's brother-in-law, and it's highly likely he tried to kill someone else first. We've spent a month investigating, which is already enough to do right by him."

In a month, many Cultivators in the city had developed a lot of resentment.

"Then what do you propose we do?"

Lu Dong's face was gloomy.

He was actually very puzzled; Third Elder Yu Wei was only at the Middle Stage of Void Refining, but his behavior during this period was very strange.

He had obstructed the investigation several times and even spoke Zeng Mingxu's name bluntly.

"In my opinion, this matter should end here. Since we can't find the culprit, let's not waste more manpower and resources. Moreover, it's highly probable that this person has long since left Tianshui City," Third Elder Yu Wei said.

"Yu Wei, you're taking this too lightly. It's not your relative who died, is it…"

Lu Dong wanted to say more, but was interrupted by First Elder Shang Chengzhi.

They had already conducted a comprehensive investigation. Since they couldn't find the murderer, there was really no need to dwell on it.

"Where has Qian Yu gone?"

First Elder Shang Chengzhi planned to stop the investigation and inform Qian Yu.

"She went to the Heavenly Demon Continent," Fifth Elder Lu Dong replied.

"Who let her go?"

First Elder Shang Chengzhi was stunned, then continued, "Don't you know that Demon Son Wu Cheng is frantically hunting our Cultivators? Although the Heavenly Demon Continent is safer, accidents can still happen. If she dies, who among you can take responsibility for that!"

Just one Qian Haoyan had caused Tianshui City to go under full lockdown. If something were to happen to Qian Yu, who knew what Zeng Mingxu would do?

"We had no choice. She insisted on going, and we couldn't stop her," Fifth Elder Lu Dong replied.

"What is she doing in the Heavenly Demon Continent?" First Elder Shang Chengzhi asked in a deep voice.

"The murderer hasn't been found. During this time, anyone who had a grievance with Qian Haoyan has been captured and interrogated by her. This trip to the Heavenly Demon Continent must be to find Ye Mo."

Fifth Elder Lu Dong's expression was also not good.

During this period, almost everyone who had a grudge against Qian Haoyan had been secretly killed by people sent by Qian Yu.

Now, only Ye Mo was left.

Moreover, Qian Yu felt that Ye Mo was the most suspicious, because Ye Mo had had grievances with both Di Yue and Qian Haoyan.

Things couldn't be such a coincidence.

In fact, the Elders of the Law Enforcement Hall were also very suspicious of Ye Mo, but they felt it was impossible for Ye Mo to have killed Sect Leader Xu Geng.

Unless Ye Mo had been subjected to Possession before entering the Thunder God Sect.

"Nonsense, this is simply nonsense! Ye Mo is an Inner Sect Disciple and was introduced to the Sect by the Young Sect Master. What right does Qian Yu have to arrest Ye Mo? Fifth Elder Lu Dong, go to the Heavenly Demon Continent immediately and bring Qian Yu back to me!"

First Elder Shang Chengzhi snorted angrily, then stood up and left the meeting hall.

Fifth Elder Lu Dong stood up, glanced at Third Elder Yu Wei, and immediately left the hall as well.

Third Elder Yu Wei's eyes narrowed slightly, then he also quickly left the hall. He flashed away and appeared at the entrance of the Baixian Building.

Not long after, he appeared before a room door and knocked lightly.

The door opened immediately, and Third Elder Yu Wei walked in.

"Young Lord, the situation is not looking good. Qian Yu has personally led people to the Heavenly Demon Continent; she must be going to find Ye Mo."

There were five people in the room.

It was Young Master Mo Quan, along with Mo Yu and Senior Sister Yun.

The other two were Young Master Mo Quan's guards.

Third Elder Yu Wei quietly glanced at the two guards and immediately withdrew his gaze.

"Hmm, you should go too. If you find Ye Mo, bring him here immediately," Young Master Mo Quan said lightly.

When Young Master Mo Quan heard about the murder of Qian Haoyan in the Sect, he conducted an investigation and felt that it was highly likely that Ye Mo had killed Sect Leader Xu Geng and the others.

He knew that Ye Mo must be at the Soul Transformation stage, and it was highly likely that he had absorbed an artistic conception seed on the Heavenly Domain Battlefield. His strength should be very high, so it was not impossible for him to kill Sect Leader Xu Geng silently.

Young Master Mo Quan came mainly to bring Ye Mo back. If Ye Mo exposed his cultivation, he wouldn't be able to explain it, and other Sects might come to force their hand.

"Yes."

Third Elder Yu Wei immediately bowed and then exited the room.
