401  Demon Valley Fortress (2)

Gradually, more and more Puppet People squeezed into the courtyard. They squeezed into the courtyard until it was densely packed. Everybody moved, but it was silent.

At this moment, the eyes of a Puppet People suddenly looked at the window of the small building where they were!

Hua Ling's expression changed slightly. "They discovered us!"

In the next moment, all the Puppet People's gazes converged on this small pavilion. On a small window, their unblinking gazes were like countless blades that stood in front of Cheng Yu'er and Hua Ling, making them shiver and quickly move away from the window.

"What should we do? We're blocked!"

"Can we kill our way out? These Puppet People look very stiff. It shouldn't be difficult to kill them."

"The Puppet People look stiff, but they also have human strength and are stronger! If a battle really breaks out, with so many people, Mr. Yan can run away, but we definitely can't!"

Lin Yan had long activated the Black Tortoise Divine Armor and hid his figure, not wanting to be seen by these Puppet People.

Standing by the window, Lin Yan sized up the Puppet People and said solemnly, "They didn't come over."

Hua Ling and Cheng Yu'er went to the window to take a look. All the Puppet People were staring at them, but they did not move. They just stood there quietly with their heads raised.

Outside, there were still many Puppet People surging over. It was as if all the Puppet People in District B16 had gathered and surrounded them.

"These Puppet People…" Lin Yan narrowed his eyes. "They seem to be waiting for something…"

Lin Yan's expression instantly changed slightly. He looked into the distance and his pupils constricted slightly.

Hua Ling and Cheng Yu'er naturally followed his gaze. Their expressions changed drastically. "Chaotic Fog!"

In the sky, countless wisps of silver-gray fog were pulled out of the surging chaotic fog like threads. They fell into District B16 like needles!

It looked like a silver-gray rain. The raindrops fell and scattered throughout District B16, but most of them landed in Old Master Qian's residence and fell into the dense crowd of puppets.

They were like countless silver-gray fishing lines that fell into the crowd and intertwined with people. At first, they did not seem to be affected, but soon, the bodies of the people who fell into the silver-gray fog suddenly began to shake violently.

At first, Hua Ling was very puzzled and only felt that it looked familiar, but after looking at it for a while, her face suddenly turned pale and she cried out, "Human demon! They are going to transform into human demons! This is the ritual of transforming into human demons!"

"Human demon?" Cheng Yu'er's expression was stern. Although she had never seen a human demon with her own eyes, her fear of human demons was deeply rooted in her bones. Every child in the prefecture capital would definitely hear countless threats related to human demons as they grew up.

"I heard that human demons are extremely rare. In the entire prefecture capital, you can't even see one in a few years, right?"

Hua Ling said with an ugly expression, "Have you forgotten? Once, a large number of human demons appeared in a place. It can even be said that they formed groups, civilizations, and armies!"

Cheng Yu'er's eyes widened. "Seventy to eighty years ago, the former Qingye City, the legendary Demon Valley Fortress?"

"The Demon Valley Fortress is not a legend, but a real existence!" Hua Ling clenched her fists slightly.

"I once saw an extremely secret record in the organization. Back then, when the human demon army was about to destroy the entire Qianyuan Prefecture, a noble in the imperial capital sent 10,000 private troops to maintain the situation in the entire Qianyuan Prefecture.

"After that, they built the Demon Valley Fortress above the ruins of Qingye City and suppressed that group of human demons underground for generations!"

Cheng Yu'er asked in confusion, "Seventy to eighty years have passed, are the human demons still not dead?"

Hua Ling looked at Cheng Yu'er, and a hint of helpless horror flashed across her eyes. "Human demons were humans! They have their own civilization, their own language, and their own social form. They can reproduce just like humans! They can even…"

She looked at the human demons again, and goosebumps appeared on the surface of her skin. "They can even reproduce with humans!"

"Reproduce with humans!"

Cheng Yu'er was shocked. Was this human demon a human or a demon?!

Lin Yan had heard of human demons from Liu Lanqing.

It was said that it was a demon that had transformed from a human. It had a certain level of intelligence and was extremely difficult to deal with.

Lin Yan did not speak. He just listened quietly as he stared at the Puppet People who were gradually undergoing strange changes outside.

The silver-gray mist did not spread densely. Instead, it was like silk of appropriate thickness that shuttled through the eyes, ears, mouth, and nose of the puppet man.

The Puppet People, on the other hand, gulped down the silver-gray mist like it was some kind of nectar.

As they swallowed more and more, their skin began to squirm and undulate, as if something was constantly struggling in their bodies, wanting to tear through the disguise and jump out!

Lin Yan carefully sensed the energy fluctuations from Cheng Yu'er beside him again.

However, he realized that the energy fluctuation seemed to have quietened down and did not give him any subconscious guidance.

"So, Cheng Yu'er's intuition has failed?"

Lin Yan wasn't completely sure, but he felt that it was a pity. If Cheng Yu'er's intuition had failed so easily, it would probably be impossible for her to help him find a way to save Xiaozhi.

Lin Yan turned invisible and asked, "Can we interrupt their ritual?"

Hua Ling bit her lip. "I don't know. Perhaps we can go down and kill them now, but perhaps disturbing them will cause an even more terrifying outcome. After all, it's really unbelievable that a mere Encircled Hunt can lure out so many demons…"

"Are the demons very strong?"

"Very strong! Ordinary human demons can resist most Black Grade Noble Realm cultivators with their physical strength alone.

"As for the commander of the human demons, even a Jade Grade Noble Realm expert is no match for them!

"We have to establish a special formation and fight with numbers to have a chance of winning!

"In the records, there were only 3,000 human demons in Qingye City during that terrifying disaster. Among them, there were only ten human demon commanders.

"However, with just this number, they can sweep through the entire Qianyuan Prefecture!"

Lin Yan nodded. They did sound very powerful.

However, in this world, or rather, the world enveloped by the God's Domain, the upper limit of human martial strength was too low. The Jade Grade Noble Realm was the upper limit.

Even if it was him in the past, it was not impossible for him to win. Let alone now, he
