"who!?"

Li Mengyun and the four of them rushed out in four directions like bombs.

Looking at the night sky, there was no movement at all.

Cool breeze.

The four of them felt cold all over at the same time.

"Being... targeted by who?"

Stand in the night wind for a while and then return to the room.

"See what's on the piece of paper?"

Wearing gloves to prevent poisoning, Li Mengyun pulled out his hairpin, poured spiritual power into it, and peeled off the paper.

All I could see was the clear handwriting printed on it with fingernails.

"Li Mengyun: At three o'clock tonight, the Night Demon will appear... to meet with people and receive cultivation materials."

No beginning, no tail, just a few words.

The time, place and people are extremely clear.

The four of them looked at each other.

There was some chill in my heart.

"Who sent this?" Li Mengyun's pretty face turned pale.

The other three people all looked confused.

We also want to ask this.

"What does this notice mean? Do you want us to kill the Night Demon?"

Li Mengyun frowned: "Then this person also wants Night Demon to die. This is inevitable. But why doesn't he do it himself?"

Li Changbo frowned and said, "Could this be a trap by the defenders?"

"Absolutely impossible!"

Li Mengyun immediately denied it and said: "It is clearly written on it. This person knows our identity, otherwise my name would not appear on this note. And the guardian cannot know my name."

"It would be great if the guarding hall knew about it and came to arrest us directly. Is there any need to lay out traps?"

Li Mengyun thought clearly and said: "So this person must be a member of our sect. Moreover, he recognizes us. This can be confirmed first of all!"

"The second thing is...why is there this note? It's because he may not be able to take action himself, but it is only natural that the Night Demon dies in our hands."

The three of them nodded silently.

I approve the third lady’s astute speculation.

"As for why this person is inconvenient to take action himself, I guess... this person should be a member of the Yixin Sect, and he belongs to a high-level member of the Yixin Sect. He knows the whereabouts of Night Demon, but this person and the Yin Shen Palace should not be on the same side.

So we need to lend our hands to kill this talented apprentice of Yinshen Palace!"

"This is equivalent to directly cutting off the inheritance and future of Yin Shen Palace. When Yin Shen Palace steps down as the leader of Yixin Sect in the future, no one will be able to take over... And at that time, others will benefit from their operations."

I have to say that Li Mengyun’s inference is very reasonable.

But there is a premise, that is: this person wants Night Demon to die!

This is an inevitable prerequisite.

"There are too many people in our sect who want Night Demon dead."

Li Mengyun's eyes flashed with coldness, and he said: "But this person is blatantly using us as knives. It is quite abominable!"

Calculation completed.

All four of them had eyes shining.

"Then shall we go tonight?"

"Go! Of course I want to go!"

Li Mengyun said: "But... this matter must be guarded against. Therefore, we can go in advance and respond to each other in four directions, far and near."

"If the Night Demon really appears, then it is true. We will kill him with all our strength and then retreat immediately!"

"If this is a trap... then get out in time."

"If that's the case... we're going to leave now."

"Well, take your belongings with you. We will most likely leave tonight."

"good!"

The four of them had decided on a plan and immediately started cleaning up.

Li Mengyun stood in front of the window, looking at the night sky.

He murmured: "Mengnan, tonight, my sister will avenge you! Just wait and see the blood of the night demon. In this night sky, your favorite flower of human blood will bloom!"

"Sister, I will promise that the blood flowers of the Night Demon will bloom extraordinarily brightly for you to see!"

She stood in front of the window in a daze, as if she saw her brother smiling.

Saying: "Thank you sister."

A gentle smile appeared at the corner of her mouth, and she stretched out her hand, as if she wanted to touch her brother's face.

But the trance suddenly disappeared.

Li Changhe's voice came: "Miss Third, it's ready."

The tenderness on Li Mengyun's face turned into extreme coldness, and he turned around and strode out: "Let's go!"

"Walk!"

…

The night gradually deepens.

This small alley near this large courtyard lined with high walls cannot be said to be hidden at all.

This is a ditch left between neighbors of wealthy families that flows when it rains.

Commonly known as Yanggou.

But the more wealthy people are, the higher the adjacent courtyard walls are. If your house is taller, my house must follow suit.

So alleys like this are getting darker and darker.

At the entrance of the alley is a small road, and on the other side of the small road is a bamboo forest. In other words, it is an abandoned garden.

In the dark night.

There is still ice and snow in the alley that has not melted away.

Under the reflection of the stars and moon, it shines with gleaming light.

An old man with a stooped figure, wearing a torn cotton-padded jacket, seemed to be a beggar, and was carrying a medium-sized package on his back.

Somewhat trembling, I walked to the entrance of the alley.

Immediately, he seemed tired and panting, and sat down in the corner.

His body was hunched and trembling, and his gray hair was messy and flying in the cold wind.

With cloudy eyes, he looked around with some fear and some hesitation, looking enviously at the smoke and heat coming from the surrounding yard.

However, he put his two hands into the sleeves of his torn cotton jacket again.

A desolate sigh, but a white breath came out of the sigh.

It shows how cold the weather is.

The night is already dark, and it is already midnight.

The wind seems to be even colder.

The old man was trembling and curled up as much as possible, squeezing all parts of his body together to increase the heat.

From time to time, rub your hands together and breathe out.

But he never left, as if he was waiting for something.

His eyes flickered in a place where others could not see him, turned his head, and glanced across four directions intentionally or unintentionally.

After confirming that there was no threat to him, he lowered his head and waited quietly.

The four people hiding in secret were talking to each other.

"It seems that this old man is the one who is dedicated to teaching and delivering resources to Night Demon. I have to say, the acting really looks like him."

"I have to say that there are so many talents in the subordinate sects. Look at this old guy. If I hadn't known about it in advance, I really wouldn't have been able to tell. This is not a beggar, but a member of our sect."

"I have to say that this is also their law of survival. Otherwise, there is only death."

"That's right."
