Whoosh—
The wind howled through the courtyard as the three people, each with their own team, flew away.
Jiang Wangye’s smile faded, his face turning grim, as he turned to the Bright Mirror and bowed, saying: "There’s been a change in circumstances. The Demon Extermination Crossbow was destroyed; I’m afraid the thunder tribulation won’t be able to affect Consort Yu... What should we do now?"
Inside the coffin, one of the "corpses" suddenly sat up, a hoarse voice emanating from the mirror, "Don’t panic. Follow the original plan, the Eightfold Exorcism Array is the key. Before the array is completely broken, the Array Map must be retrieved."
"And also handle that Array Master Sun Chongli."
"Yes." Jiang Wangye nodded in agreement, putting away the treasure mirror and quickly left the residence.

Capital Camp Training Field.
The alchemy process had reached its most critical moment, and the thunder tribulation strikes became more frequent, almost covering all colors!
With Her Majesty the Consort protecting, there’s no need to worry too much. The Daoist Venerable only needs to focus on outputting alchemy fire. Under the tempering of the Fire of Duality, the pill embryo began to gradually gather Daoist Charm.
At this rate, the pill will surely form within seven days!
Boom—
Suddenly, a muffled sound came from the distant city, and the sky was pierced with fire!
At the same time, the communication jade in Chen Mo’s arms began to buzz and flash, a prearranged alert from his people, signaling any sudden events at the Chen Mansion.
"In that direction..."
"Seems like it’s Ming’an Street?"
Ling Ningzhi’s expression changed slightly, saying: "Could those guys be trying to target the Chen Family?!"
Although she didn’t know who was behind this, managing to sneak so many demons into the city, and using the Demon Extermination Crossbow to attack the training field, clearly pointed to someone formidable!
And her intuition told her that their goal was certainly not as simple as stopping the alchemy!
Chen Mo furrowed his brow and said: "You stay here with Elder Ling, I need to go and check!"
Ling Ningzhi was naturally uneasy; it was likely an enemy’s diversion tactic... It was then that Yuan Junfeng spoke up: "Why don’t I accompany Mr. Chen?"
"Counselor?" Chen Mo shook his head, "Isn’t that inappropriate?"
"It’s perfectly fine." Yuan Junfeng’s face was solemn, saying: "There are two Ultimate Venerables here, nothing unexpected should happen. Since this involves the Demon Clan, it’s within the Demon Suppression Department’s duty, I cannot sit idly by!"
"Besides, the opponent is well-prepared this time, if we encounter an ambush on the way, we can look out for each other!"
"That works." Chen Mo considered for a moment and didn’t refuse, nodding: "Then I’ll trouble the Counselor."
The two didn’t delay much, entrusting the task of guarding the training field entirely to Guo Xiaoyong, and after a simple briefing, they swiftly flew towards the city.
Yuan Junfeng, as the second-in-command of the Sky Scale Guard, had long reached the Heavenly Human First Grade, making him one of the most powerful figures in all of Jiu Zhou. However, he was usually extremely low-key and rarely displayed his true strength.
The Capital Camp was in the North Suburb, while Ming’an Street was located in East City, spanning nearly half of the Capital City.
Fortunately, the cultivation depth of the two enabled exceptional speed, crossing a hundred miles in mere moments, and from afar, they could see fire rising into the sky and heat waves swirling, indicating someone was fighting, exactly at the location of Chen Mansion!
"It seems their target is not just the Commander!" Yuan Junfeng gritted his teeth, "Mr. Chen has previously exterminated many demons, becoming a thorn in the demon clan’s side, they seem to have turned their aim on the Chen Family, seeking revenge!"
Chen Mo nodded, "Lord Yuan is correct, these demons are truly detestable."
Yuan Junfeng’s eyes were filled with killing intent, as he said: "Are your parents still in the mansion? We must swiftly eliminate the demons to prevent casualties!"
"No rush." Chen Mo waved his hand, saying: "My mother is a Martial Arts Grandmaster herself, and it’s rare for her to stretch her muscles, let them fight for a bit first, but before that, I have somewhere else to go..."
With that, he turned and flew towards the East Suburb.
Yuan Junfeng was taken aback and quickly followed, asking in confusion: "Where are you going?"
Chen Mo smiled, saying: "The Demon Suppression Department."
Yuan Junfeng: ???
...
...
Half a quarter of an hour ago.
A dozen or so strong men, in brocade martial robes, silently gathered outside the Chen Mansion’s gate.
Staring at the tightly closed black door, Wanqi Shuofeng’s eyes were fierce, and he coldly said: "Quick battle! Leave no survivors except for the Chen Zhuo couple!"
Having decided to strike, it was essential to eliminate the roots!
