Chapter 96: The Imperial City as a Furnace, The Imperial Preceptor Appears
This surprised her.

Looking at Su Mu’s methods, he seemed like a martial artist.

However, upon closer inspection, he could sense a faint demonic aura.

However, he was clearly a living person. How could he have demonic aura?

Could it be that he used some kind of Dao technique to steal the power of demons?

..

The middle-aged nun was a little confused, but how many people had secrets? She did not ask further.

The two of them investigated around the outer city and saw many ferocious and terrifying demons along the way. Most of them were civilians who had died tragically.

This outer city was truly purgatory!

Scholar Arcanum’s expression became uglier and uglier. He could not suppress the anger in his heart and it was written all over his face.

Fortunately, after more than an hour, they finally found something!

Su Mu and Scholar Profound Theory arrived at the border of Beijing.

If they went any further, they would be out of the city.

At this moment, Scholar Arcanum’s expression suddenly changed. The compass in his hand started to make a ” kakaka ” sound, and the needle pointed straight at the city wall!

Scholar Arcanum looked at the city wall in front of him and said with a serious expression,”

“There’s a formation on the city wall! Let’s go and take a look!”

Under the guidance of the compass, mysterious runes appeared on the towering city wall.

It twisted and squirmed, and it was very strange!

Su Mu and Scholar Arcanum had just gotten a little closer when they were stopped.

Two Dao children appeared out of thin air in front of the city wall. They had dull expressions and cold auras, as if… A puppet!

The two Dao children stood in front of them and said in a stiff voice without any emotion,

“The forbidden area ahead, no one is allowed to enter.”

“Let’s go!”

The Profound Secrets Daoist Nun took a deep look at the symbols on the city wall, then left with Su Mu.

Su Mu was completely confused by the whole process. After a distance, he asked:

“What happened just now? What were those runes? What was the background of those two Dao children?”

“Let’s talk when we get back.”

Scholar Arcanum’s expression was terrifyingly gloomy, as if he was extremely furious.

Su Mu couldn’t ask any more questions and could only follow her back.

..

When he returned to Li Lingyan’s place, two teams had already returned.

Counting Su Mu and Scholar Arcanum, there were three teams.

After a while, the last group of people rushed back.

These four groups of people were all searching in different directions, but their expressions were all the same. All of them had gloomy expressions.

The few of them gathered together and talked about their respective discoveries.

After some discussion, they basically reached an agreement.

Su Mu also understood from the side.

It turned out that the huge and strange Dao talisman on the city wall was some kind of talisman used for alchemy. It should have been engraved in the alchemy furnace.

But now, it was engraved on the walls of the Imperial City!

As for those Dao children, they were naturally the people under the Imperial Advisor.

Whether it was a human or a ghost, he didn’t know for the time being.

On the contrary, he could not easily attack them, or else it was very likely to attract the state preceptor, so he could only leave just now.

The few Aura Refining experts unanimously believed that the Imperial Preceptor was using the Imperial City as a furnace to refine some kind of pill!

“The imperial city is the pill furnace, the blood moon is the pill fire, and the people are the great medicine. What a ruthless and arrogant demon!”

Scholar Arcanum gritted his teeth. He was extremely furious.

Li Lingyan remained calm. She said in a deep voice,

“Now that things are clear, let’s go save the people.”

“I’ll remember this in advance. One day, I’ll settle the score with him!”

Hearing this, the few masters under her could only nod and endure this anger. They were ready to help the people of the Demon Suppression Department to deal with the remaining demons.

But at this moment, a crimson dragon shadow flew out from the palace!

This infinitely extending dragon shadow emitted a warm red light.

It lit up the entire night sky, and a red path appeared in the sky!

This scene attracted the attention of everyone inside and outside the Imperial City.

All of them stared at the sky in shock.

Under everyone’s gaze, a person wearing linen clothes whose age and gender could not be determined walked out.

This person was flawless, like a celestial being!

He stepped on the red dragon shadow and slowly walked out.

His steps were neither fast nor slow, leisurely and leisurely, carrying a faint Dao charm.

However, with every step he took, he covered a distance of several thousand feet, and his figure kept flashing.

In a short while, they arrived above the outer city.

..

Seeing this person, Su Mu immediately understood that this person was the Great Qian, the protector of the country, the instigator of all this!

And this mastermind had actually used such a high-profile method to walk in front of the world.

He did not know what he was up to.

More importantly, Su Mu vaguely felt that the red dragon shadow under the Imperial Advisor’s feet was somewhat familiar.

Where had he seen it before?

As Su Mu thought about it, his eyes suddenly opened wide and a look of shock appeared on his face.

This red dragon shadow was 70 – 80% similar to the red dragon centipede that swallowed the Beiling King and the Mountain Guarding King!

Could there be any connection between the two?

In other words, this Imperial Advisor was the Scarlet Dragon Centipede!
