Fiend Refinement Sect Headquarters.
Su Chen looked at the green-robed elder's corpse and frowned. "Shuang Jiuzhou, didn't I ask you to look after him? Why did you let him die?"
Just now, when Su Chen was patrolling the Fiend Refinement Sect, he received news that the green-robed elder had committed suicide.
Moreover, his soul was completely destroyed, not even leaving behind a trace of his soul.
Su Chen still wanted to read his memories from his soul to investigate where the information about Mirage Dao came from, but now the clues were gone.
It was no wonder that Su Chen was so angry.
Shuang Jiuzhou said with a face full of shame, "Lord Dragon God, I failed to look after him. I have already sealed all of his meridians, but he understood the formation restrictions in the Fiend Refinement Sect and used a hidden defensive formation to trigger the killing formation, sending himself to death."
Su Chen's frown deepened.
This old man would rather die than be interrogated by Su Chen, as if he wanted to deliberately hide something.
But now, there was no way to verify it.
"Forget it, it's not your fault. Go and clean out the Fiend Refinement Sect's treasury. Take everything you can."
Two hours later, Su Chen's group flew south in a grandiose manner.
Compared to when they came, there were nine more Demon Race experts.
They also took away a large amount of wealth.
Previously, the Fiend Refinement Sect had accumulated a shocking amount of wealth. Just the spirit stones alone exceeded two trillion, and there were also various other treasures that piled up into mountains.
However, most of them were materials used to refine evil demons and were useless to Su Chen.
However, Su Chen did not keep them. Otherwise, if other evil cultivators took them away, it would be a disaster.
…
Four days later.
Su Chen finally returned to the Immortal Dawn Sect.
Su Chen began to consider how to settle the nine evil demons.
It was definitely not suitable to leave them in the Immortal Dawn Sect, as they would be too easily discovered.
Su Chen simply brought them to the Soul Hall.
It just so happened that Su Chen was often outside, and the Hall of Souls lacked powerful combat strength to guard it. These two Vast Heaven Realm Heavenly Demons and seven Heaven Pillar Realm Demon Gods could secretly guard the Hall of Souls and protect the safety of the Soul Sea and the surrounding areas.
However, if Su Chen wasn't home, he would have to find a suitable candidate to inherit the Blood Fiend Banner and control these demons.
Who should he choose?
It had to be someone worthy of Su Chen's trust.
Dream Butterfly?
No, she was too immortal. It was not suitable for her to manage a group of demons.
After pondering for a while, Su Chen decided that Taoist Master Bai Mei was the most suitable candidate.
He was full of righteousness and would not be affected by the power of evil spirits. Moreover, he was a Holy Servant that Su Chen had summoned, so he was 100% loyal to Su Chen and would not betray him.
Su Chen immediately summoned Daoist Master Bai Mei to make arrangements.
In order to ensure that these demons would not act recklessly, Su Chen also added a few restriction arrays on them, restricting them from causing any harm to the people of the Soul Hall.
After that, Su Chen let Bai Mei lead the demons away and temporarily settled them on a deserted island.
Then, Su Chen returned to his villa.
After working hard for a few days, Su Chen needed to rest for a few days.
The house was quite lively.
Medusa, Qiu Shanlong, and Hermione were all there.
The Holy Servants that Su Chen had summoned did not need to cultivate every day like the others because they were summoned. Even if they cultivated, they would not be able to increase their strength. In addition, Su Chen was not home and did not give them any missions, so they were very free.
The sudden appearance of Su Chen made the three women happy, and they all came forward to welcome him.
"Greetings, Master."
"Master, are you hungry? I will cook for you."
"Master, do you want to take a bath first? I will prepare clothes for you."
"Master, do you want to listen to songs? I recently learned a few folk songs that are quite popular in the City of Soul Lanterns."
The enjoyment of an emperor.
…
The next morning.
Su Chen opened his eyes. On his left was Queen Medusa, who could maintain a graceful and elegant aura even when sleeping. On his right was Qiu Shanlong, who was very carefree and fearless in her sleep. He looked down and saw Hermione lying on top of him.
He closed his eyes and prepared to sleep again …
After two days of relaxing, Su Chen went north to the Immortal Dawn Sect again.
However, this time, Su Chen did not use a teleportation array.
He directly headed north and flew into the Great Desert.
He wanted to go to the vicinity of the Mengmeng Path to see if there were any demons active.
Su Chen was still worried about the Mengmeng Path.
The Mengmeng Path was too unusual. Any one of the demons imprisoned there would cause a huge disaster. Once the Mengmeng Path was breached, it would be a catastrophe for the countless living beings in the Spirit Mountain and Tranquil Province.
Any kind of caution was necessary.
After arriving at the Great Desert, Su Chen entered a state of concealment.
Although he did not sense anyone following him, it was better to be careful.
Soon, Su Chen arrived near the Mengmeng Path.
At first glance, this place looked very ordinary. It was very similar to any other place in the Great Desert. There was nothing special about it.
Only Su Chen knew what kind of great terror was hidden under this desert.
Su Chen did not approach the Mengmeng Path. He only patrolled the surroundings.
Suddenly, Su Chen sensed a weak wisp of demonic energy.
Although it was very weak, Su Chen immediately became vigilant.
He followed this wisp of demonic energy and carefully searched for it.
Suddenly, a hidden bug appeared in Su Chen's field of vision.
Su Chen immediately frowned.
Su Chen had checked in the Demon Refining Sect before and did not find any traces of hidden bugs.
This meant that the hidden bugs Su Chen encountered before did not come from the Demon Refining Sect.
Now, he had discovered another hidden bug.
Without a doubt, there was another force behind this hidden bug.
Su Chen did not rashly approach it.
The hidden bug was like a surveillance device. Once it was destroyed, the person behind it would become suspicious. Especially since this place was near the Mengmeng Path. This would make it easier for the Mengmeng Path's location to be exposed.
Su Chen immediately went to the sand dune where the Mengmeng Path was located.
"Ling Meng."
Su Chen called out softly.
In the next second, a red ball of light floated up from the ancient stone tablet and transformed into Ling Meng's image.
"Su Chen, why are you here!"
Ling Meng was pleasantly surprised to see Su Chen. Although they would occasionally meet in dreams, dreams were still dreams. There was a big difference between meeting in real life.
Su Chen immediately told Ling Meng that the Mengmeng Path's location might be exposed and asked her to prepare some countermeasures, such as moving the entrance of the Mengmeng Path.
If possible, Su Chen hoped that Ling Meng would move the entrance of the Mengmeng Path to the Soul Sea. This way, Su Chen would have better conditions to protect the Mengmeng Path.
Ling Meng helplessly shook her head, "I can't do that. The Mengmeng Path is fixed in this space. If you want to move it, you can only do it with the help of a Great Emperor."
Su Chen was stunned.
There was no other way. After all, he could not find a Great Emperor at the last moment.
Moreover, if Su Chen had the ability, he would not be afraid of the Mengmeng Path's location being exposed. With a Great Emperor guarding it, which demon would dare to send themselves to death?
"Right, I suddenly thought of something."
Ling Meng said, "Other than me, the Mengmeng Path has a guardian. She died many years ago, but according to my understanding, she recently reincarnated. If you can find her, you might be able to help."
Reincarnated guardian?
