Chapter 464: Demon

The mountain eagle gritted his teeth. Although he was unwilling to do so, he also knew that he could not offend the person in front of him.

He snorted coldly and said, "Let's go."

Leave quickly with the bandits.

Everyone in the caravan heaved a sigh of relief. They looked at Fang Yue, their eyes filled with gratitude and awe.

The woman also rushed to Zhou Huai'an to check his injuries.

Zhou Huaian looked pale and the wound was bleeding.

The woman said anxiously: "Brother, you must hold on."

Fang Yue frowned slightly and stepped forward to check Zhou Huaian's injuries.

He took out a bottle of wound medicine from his arms, handed it to the woman, and said, "This medicine may help him stop bleeding and heal his injuries."

The woman glanced at Fang Yue gratefully and quickly applied medicine to Zhou Huaian's wounds.

After some treatment, Zhou Huaian's injury was temporarily stabilized.

He looked at Fang Yue weakly and said, "Thank you, brother, for your help. If it weren't for you, our caravan would be in trouble today."

Fang Yue waved his hand and said, "You're welcome. I just don't want to see innocent people suffer."

At this time, everyone in the caravan began to clean up the mess.

They were still frightened by this encounter, and at the same time they became more and more curious about each other.

The man walked up to Fang Yue, clasped his fists and said, "Brother, I hide my secrets. I have offended you many times before. Please forgive me."

Fang Yue smiled slightly and said, "It doesn't matter. The top priority now is to find a safe place as soon as possible for Brother Zhou to recover from his injuries."

The caravan continued to move forward, and everyone respected each other more and more along the way.

However, Fang Yue always kept the mountain eagle in mind.

He knew that the appearance of the mountain eagle this time was no accident. If he took action this time, maybe the news would come out.

In order to avoid another accident in the future, Fang Yue decided to secretly hunt down the mountain eagle to avoid future troubles.

Soon after, Fang Yue found an excuse to leave the team.

He quietly concealed himself and followed the direction in which the mountain eagle left.

Along the way, Fang Yue relied on his keen perception to carefully search for traces of the mountain eagle.

Finally, in a remote valley, Fang Yue discovered a mountain eagle and his team of bandits.

The mountain eagle was scolding his men with a gloomy face, obviously extremely angry at this failure.

In his words, there was no lack of curses towards Fang Yue, Cheng Yaojin.

Fang Yue approached quietly, with cold murderous intent in his eyes.

The bandits were not aware of the approaching danger at all, and were still immersed in the wrath of the mountain eagle.

When Fang got closer to a certain distance, he suddenly appeared.

The mountain eagle and the bandits were instantly frightened.

The mountain eagle's eyes widened with anger, and he immediately smiled bitterly and said: "Senior, this senior, why are you here!"

Fang Yue looked at Mountain Eagle coldly and said: " Mountain Eagle, don't even think about escaping today. Your appearance is no accident. Who ordered you to attack the caravan?"

The mountain eagle's expression changed, and after hesitating for a moment he said, "Senior, I really can't say it. If I say it, my brothers and I will die without a burial place."

Fang Yue's eyes became colder and colder, and he said, "If you don't tell me, you will die now."

The mountain eagle gritted his teeth and said: "Senior, please let us go. We are also under the instructions of others and cannot help ourselves."

Fang Yue snorted coldly and said, "You can't help yourself? Then you should tell the person behind it. Maybe I can spare your life."

The mountain eagle said helplessly: "Senior, I can tell you some clues, but please let us go."

Fang Yue nodded slightly and said, "Okay, you go ahead."

Zuo Shanying lowered his voice and said: "The person who ordered us is very mysterious. We only know that he is from the imperial capital, and his specific identity is unclear. But he gave us a large amount of money and asked us to attack this caravan."

Fang Yue frowned and said, "That's all? No other clues?"

Mountain Eagle hurriedly said: "Senior, I really only know this. We are just bandits, how dare we ask more questions."

Fang Yue thought for a moment and said, "Okay, I'll let you go for now."

After saying that, Fang Yue immediately turned around and prepared to leave.

At this time, the mountain eagle also secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

But at this moment, a sharp edge fell directly on the mountain eagle.

The mountain eagle's eyes widened in horror, and he was about to beg for mercy, but it was too late.

Fang Yue's body flashed and he shuttled through the group of bandits like lightning.

His movements were as fast as a ghost, and every shot carried deadly power.

The bandits had no time to react and fell to the ground one after another.

Blood splattered and screams came one after another.

The mountain eagle looked at this scene in despair. He never expected that Fang Yue would suddenly regret it.

He tried to resist, but in the face of Fang Yue's powerful strength, his resistance seemed so weak.

Fang Yue's eyes were cold and showed no mercy.

He knew that keeping these bandits would only be a disaster, especially the mountain eagle. Since he was not sure whether he would keep the secret, he could not risk letting them go.

After a while, there was only dead silence in the valley.

The bandits fell to the ground in a mess, their blood staining the ground red.

Fang Yue stood there quietly and exhaled slightly.

He knew that his behavior might be cruel, but in this complicated situation, he had to be decisive.

Besides, this mountain eagle is a group of villains, with countless blood stained on their hands, and they deserve to die.

Fang Yue looked at the corpses on the ground without much concern.

He knew that in this chaotic world, kindness could sometimes bring greater disasters.

After a short pause, Fang Yue turned and left the valley. He wanted to get back to the caravan as soon as possible and continue to move towards the capital of the Chu Empire.

After returning to the caravan, the caravan leader and his sister were in awe of Fang Yue.

The man stepped forward and said respectfully: "Brother, thanks to you, we were able to escape danger this time. We will never forget your kindness."

The woman also bowed her head slightly and said softly: "I have offended you before, please don't take it to heart."

Fang Yue waved his hand slightly and said: "No need, I just did what I should do."

The man hesitated for a moment and asked again: "Brother, I don't know why you went to the capital of Da Chu this time? If there is anything we can help, we will do our best."

Fang Yue was silent for a moment and said: "This matter has nothing to do with you, you'd better not get involved."

The man was slightly startled after hearing Fang Yue's words, then nodded and said: "Brother, what you said is very true."

Then he ordered the manager of the caravan to give the most luxurious carriage to Fang Yue.

But Fang Yue did not accept it, and the other party had to give up when he saw this.

The group moved forward all the way, and they were close to the capital of Da Chu in just a few days.

At this time, the mood of the caravan became more and more nervous.

After all, the situation in the imperial capital is complicated, and various forces are intertwined.

Fang Yue's expression became more and more solemn. He knew that once he entered the imperial capital, he would face more challenges and unknowns.

The brother and sister who led the caravan looked at Fang Yue from time to time, with both awe of him and worry about the upcoming unknown.

As they got closer to the imperial capital, the surrounding scene gradually became prosperous.

However, behind this prosperity, there seemed to be countless undercurrents.

When the caravan finally arrived outside the gate of the imperial capital, everyone was shocked by the magnificent momentum of the imperial capital.

The tall city walls and majestic city gates all demonstrated the dignity and majesty of the imperial capital of Da Chu.

Fang Yue looked at the gate of the imperial capital silently, thinking about the next action in his heart.

He knew that he had to find the eldest princess as soon as possible to help her deal with the conspiracy of the three princes.

The leader of the caravan walked up to Fang Yue, clasped his fists again and said, "Brother, let's say goodbye. I hope everything goes well for you in the imperial capital."

The woman also looked at Fang Yue, with a hint of complex emotions in her eyes.

Fang Yue nodded slightly and said, "See you later."

After that, he turned and walked towards the imperial capital.

When Fang Yue stepped into the imperial capital, he saw the bustling crowd and the scattered buildings in front of him.

There were shops on both sides of the street, and shouts came one after another.

However, Fang Yue had no intention of appreciating this prosperous scene. His mind was all on finding the eldest princess and dealing with the conspiracy of the three princes.

Fang Yue shuttled through the crowd, paying attention to the movements around him, while thinking about how to kill the three princes of Da Chu.

He knew that these three princes were not only powerful, but also had heavy troops. It was not easy to kill them successfully.

First of all, Fang Yue knew that he could not act rashly. He must first understand the specific situation of the three princes, including their daily whereabouts, the guards around them, and possible weaknesses.

He decided to find some well-informed people in the imperial capital first and get intelligence from them.

Fang Yue walked into a seemingly quiet teahouse and found a corner to sit down.

There were many guests in the teahouse, and they were talking a lot. Perhaps he could hear some news about the three princes.

While drinking tea, he listened carefully to the conversations of the people around him.

Sure enough, after a while, Fang Yue heard someone talking about the three princes.

"These three princes are now powerful, and no one dares to offend them."

"Yes, I heard that they are planning something big recently."

Fang Yue listened calmly, trying to analyze useful information from it.

Through these conversations, Fang Yue learned that the three princes often appeared in some specific places, and although they were surrounded by many guards, they were not impeccable.

He began to make a preliminary plan, intending to secretly observe the actions of the three princes and find the right time to take action.

Just as Fang Yue was thinking about his next move, he heard another important news.

A guest whispered, "I heard that one of the three princes will go to the Big Buddha Temple outside the city to worship on the 15th of this month." Fang Yue's heart moved, this might be a rare opportunity.

Fang Yue continued to listen to the discussion of the crowd calmly, trying to learn more about the specific situation of the prince's worship.

Someone said, "Every time the prince worships, the scene is spectacular, with heavy guards, and ordinary people can't get close at all."

Another person echoed, "Yes, but I heard that this prince is very pious, and there will be a moment of quiet prayer time when he worships."

Fang Yue silently kept this information in mind.

He began to carefully plan his actions in the Big Buddha Temple.

However, during the preparation process, Fang Yue did not forget to explore the mansions of the three princes.

He took advantage of the night and quietly approached the mansion of one of the princes.

The mansion was brightly lit and heavily guarded.

Fang Yue was powerful and was a rare great master in the world.

In the palace, those ordinary guards could not find his traces.

He wandered around the palace like a ghost, carefully observing its layout and the patrol patterns of the guards.

This prince's mansion covers a vast area and has magnificent architecture. Inside the high courtyard walls, pavilions and towers are scattered in an orderly manner, and the lights flicker in the night, revealing a kind of majesty and luxury. Fang Yue noticed that there were two teams of guards standing guard at the gate of the palace. They looked serious and watched the movements around them vigilantly. From time to time, patrol teams passed by the courtyard walls, with neat steps, and the sound of armor rubbing was particularly clear in the silent night.

Fang Yue went around the side of the palace and found that there was a small river surrounding it.

The river water sparkled in the moonlight, adding a tranquil atmosphere to the palace.

However, he knew that there were many crises hidden under this tranquility.

He observed the guards on the riverside and found that their attention was mainly focused on the land, and they paid relatively little attention to the river surface.

Fang Yue's heart moved, perhaps this could be a potential breakthrough.

And secretly calculated in his heart, if he didn't go to the Big Buddha Temple, he would start here, and I don't know how high the probability of success would be?

Then, he came to the backyard of the palace.

It was relatively quiet here, with only a few guards on duty.

Fang Yue noticed that there was a garden in the backyard, where various exotic flowers and plants were planted.

He quietly approached the garden and carefully observed the surrounding environment.

The flowers and plants in the garden exuded a faint fragrance under the moonlight, like a peaceful paradise.

However, Fang Yue knew that in this seemingly peaceful place, there were also hidden dangers.

He noticed that there were several paths in the garden, winding in different directions.

Fang Yue walked carefully along one of the paths, and suddenly, he felt that the stone slab under his feet seemed to be a little loose.

He moved his mind, carefully observed the surroundings, and found a cleverly hidden mechanism.

Fang Yue gently touched the mechanism, and with a slight sound, an entrance appeared on the ground.

He observed vigilantly for a moment, and after confirming that there was no danger, he slowly walked in.

After entering, Fang Yue found that this was a secret room.

The secret room was filled with an old atmosphere. There were several mysterious scrolls hanging on the walls, and some ancient books and boxes were piled in the corner.

Fang Yue approached the books and boxes and gently opened one of them.

The words on the book were ancient and obscure, and seemed to record some unknown secrets.

He continued to check the items in other books and boxes, hoping to find clues related to the three princes.

In a box, Fang Yue found a letter.

He opened the letter, and the content on it made him frown.

Because the words written on this letter were actually the words of the demon race. (End of this chapter)
