From the Valkyrie to the Endless

As a result, they had not anticipated Sikong Yuan's strength and suffered backlash, resulting in heavy losses. Only Na Yunhe managed to escape.
The one thousand elite soldiers who brought support were all killed and their heads were all cut off by Sikong Yuan.
Shen Lie arrived a step late, but still caught up with Sikong Yuan and started a fierce battle with him.
At that time, Shen Lie's martial arts skills had reached the highest level. Although Sikong Yuan was strong, he was already exhausted after a series of battles and was eventually defeated by Shen Lie.
When he was about to die, Sikong Yuan regained some of his consciousness and became sober again. "
Wu Zhenhai's eyes dimmed and he sighed softly:
"Shen Lie had doubts about the war in Qianzhou. After learning the whole story, he spared Sikong Yuan's life and let him flee overseas, never to set foot in the Middle-earth again in his life.
Then he submitted a report to Yang Zongxian, saying that the demon was dead, his body had fallen to the cliff, was torn into pieces, and was eaten by wild beasts, in order to conceal the truth for Sikong Yuan.
Unexpectedly, after seeing the memorial, Yang Zongxian ordered Shen Lie to capture all the wild animals in the valley alive and escort them back to the imperial capital."
Hearing this, Shen Qing's eyes changed slightly, and he realized the implicit meaning in these words.
The imperial capital is extremely far away from Qianzhou, and it took at least a month for the Divine Capture Division to get the news and then return.
They arrived the day after Sikong Yuan was possessed by the devil, proving that they had already been guarding Qianzhou and had anticipated the appearance of the human-demon.
Later, Yang Zongxian's action of ordering Shen Lie to hunt and catch wild beasts further proved that he clearly knew about the existence of divine bloodline.
Seeing Shen Qing's enlightened look, Wu Zhenhai smiled bitterly: "Your father also found something wrong. After returning to Beijing, he secretly investigated for many years and finally found some clues.
Yang Zongxian needed the blood of human demons to nourish himself in order to enter a higher realm and stay in the human world for a long time, so he deliberately started wars one after another, and even let his army kill civilians, forcing people to turn into ghosts and demons! "
Wu Zhenhai's face turned slightly red, he coughed lightly, and his eyes were full of bloodshot:
"That day, Shen Lie sent me a message, saying that his martial arts had reached the end and there was no way forward. So he went into the palace alone to try to kill Yang Zongxian. If he succeeded, the world would change. If he failed... you know the result from now on."
Shen Qing closed his eyes and thought for a long time, then slowly opened his eyes: "Thank you uncle for telling me, I now know what's going on."
Morally and logically, Yang Zongxian deserves to die. She will do what Shen Lie has not finished.
After all, she still owed the Shen family a corpse.

The next morning.
Inside Jindu City.
Into the remote alley, more than ten people walked in.
They were all dressed in black, with copper masks that only revealed their two eyes, and silver plates hanging from their waists. They walked steadily, their powerful blood and internal force fluctuations revealed without any concealment.
The leader was a man of great stature, nearly nine feet tall, and not even his black clothes could hide his terrifying muscular lines. Even though he didn't take any action, others could still feel his blood energy as hot as the scorching sun.
There is no doubt that this is a martial arts master.
With this attire and the presence of so many experts, his identity couldn't be more obvious.
Purple face and silver waist, the Great Xia Divine Constable.
The Divine Detective Division is set up specifically to catch humans and demons, and will not be deployed easily.
Although several people died in this alley last night, it was far from enough to alert the Divine Detective Department.
The Divine Constable came here suddenly only because the causes of death of these people were very similar, and their heads were all chopped off.
This method is exactly the same as that used by the Demon Slayer.
(End of this chapter)
Chapter 27 Decision
"It's not that demon."
Looking around the alley for signs of fighting, the burly man in the lead squatted down and after a careful inspection, he made a conclusion in a hoarse voice:
"They were all beaten to death first, and then their heads were chopped off. Among the people who did it, there was a master. In all likelihood, he was related to the remnants of Shen's party."
There are not many masters above the Grandmaster level in the world, and they are all included in the two lists of Heaven and Earth. There are only more than a hundred Grandmasters listed on the Earth List.
There are only twelve martial arts grandmasters on the Heavenly Ranking. In recent years, some have died, some have had their property confiscated, and with the newcomers, there are only ten left, with two vacancies.
Grandmasters are rare to begin with, and even fewer are willing to stay in the deserted island. Apart from the remnants of Shen's party in secret, there are basically no other possibilities.
There was a hint of doubt in the man's eyes. If it was just to frame someone, this method was too despicable. Why would he do this?
Just as he was lost in thought, a figure came running towards him.
"Sir, Group B has sent a message that they have found the trace of the new demon!"
"Lock the position and keep her at all costs!"
Hearing this, the burly man suddenly stood up and strode out of the alley.
Someone asked from the side: "Sir, this case..."
"Don't worry about it. Hand it over to the local government office for processing. Hunting down the demon is the top priority."
"promise!"
…………
…………
At noon, the sun was high in the sky, but there was no temperature at all.
It is almost the end of the year and the deserted island is already bitterly cold, and the temperature is now approaching freezing point.
A convoy of cars moved slowly forward along the path blazed by predecessors.
Shen Qing sat cross-legged in the carriage, closed his eyes and meditated while practicing, and began to think about future plans.
She doesn't have much power in her hands now, and Wu Zhenhai cannot fight for long, which is tantamount to risking his life. If he encounters someone who is also a master, the situation will be very dangerous.
Others besides him were not far off.
Hao Yun was originally a master of innate perfection, but unfortunately his internal strength had been wasted. Now he can only rely on his natural supernatural power to barely suppress the acquired perfection warriors.
Liang Yuan, Feng Yikui and others were even worse off. With their physiques refined by their innate inner strength, they could barely compete with warriors of around the seventh level of acquired inner strength.
It can be said that except Wu Zhenhai, no one in this group can even pose a threat to Shen Qing.
Their only advantage is that they have fought on the battlefield and are familiar with the deployment of troops, which is much more valuable than a little combat power.
"If you want to start a rebellion, you have to go back to Qianzhou."
After thinking for a long time, Shen Qing made up his mind that one can fish in troubled waters. Once a war breaks out, the number of awakened descendants of gods will inevitably increase.
Although there are dangers involved, it may also be an opportunity to deplete the strength of the Great Xia court.
The deserted island is only suitable for temporary hiding, but is not a good place to start a war. The area is vast and sparsely populated, there is a lack of money and food, and horse bandits are rampant.
Compared with the mountain bandits who blocked the road in Qianzhou, these horse bandits were more difficult to control. They were violent and murderous, and it was a fantasy to tame them into an army.
However, if we can eliminate these horse bandits, we can get a considerable number of war horses, which are very precious strategic resources.
While thinking, Shen Qing suddenly opened his eyes, his expression changed slightly, and his gaze swept to his side.
Under her gaze, the sword not far away began to tremble violently. Pulled by an invisible force, the blade slid more than two inches, revealing a cold light.
The carriage shook slightly and slowly stopped. Shen Qing stood up, holding a knife, stepped out of the carriage and scanned the surrounding wilderness.
The long swords in the hands of Hao Yun and others also began to fluctuate, as if they had spirits, shaking constantly and almost falling out of their sheaths.
"Why is this?!"
Wu Zhenhai's face changed drastically. With his vast knowledge, he had never seen such a situation before.
Although there are legends in the world about immortals flying swords through the air, they are just legends after all, and no one has ever seen them.
Even if one is a martial arts grandmaster, if he wants to capture objects from a distance, he has to rely on his internal strength, and the maximum distance is ten feet away from the body. But now, there is no human figure in sight.
Shen Qing looked a little solemn. She had heard of this kind of situation in her memories of later lives.
The types of descendants of gods are extremely numerous. Just by distinguishing by bloodline, there are thousands, if not tens of thousands.
These people with divine blood cannot perfectly control their own state when they first awaken, and the leakage of power will cause all kinds of strange phenomena.
In this situation, it is very likely that the descendants of gods have appeared nearby.
Judging from the reaction of the sword, this descendant of the god has most likely inherited the bloodline of a certain sword god.
Moreover, he is not an ordinary sword god. He can induce the sword chant even from such a distance. According to the classification in later generations, he is at least a descendant of a true god of the seventh rank or above.
As soon as this thought arose, a curtain of light suddenly jumped out and appeared in Shen Qing's eyes.
Inside the light curtain, the sundial was stained with a layer of blood, and there was an extra wheel on the outermost circle, engraved with mysterious silver lines, dividing the east, west, south, north, and the four poles of heaven and earth.
In addition to the pointer, there was a slightly illusory light and shadow above the roulette wheel, indicating a coordinate.
The sudden change of the sundial caught Shen Qing off guard.
Before she could think about it, the coordinates appearing on the roulette wheel began to move rapidly towards the center of the sundial.
After comparing the directions briefly, Shen Qing realized that the center of the sundial represented his own position.
"Come on!"
Without time to think, Shen Qing shouted loudly, pulled the reins and changed direction.
Whatever it is, there's nothing wrong with avoiding it first.
Snapped--
The whip landed on the horse's buttocks, making a series of sharp and crisp sounds.
The group of people followed Shen Qing and galloped on their horses.
Shen Qing kept staring at the sundial, and soon she discovered with some horror that the distance between her and the coordinates not only did not decrease, but was getting closer and closer.
This unknown thing moves at a terrifying speed.
After a cup of tea, Shen Qing suddenly turned around and looked at the endless wilderness behind him.
A dark shadow appeared behind where there was nothing originally.
