Chapter 759: Chapter 567 Silkworm Cocoon and Cold Wolf Army
Wang Yang walked to the corpse of the Demon Clan member, crouched down, and formed a strange Seal Gesture with his hands as he muttered an Incantation.
"With my thoughts, I divine celestial secrets, bridging yin and yang!"
As the words fell, Wang Yang’s pupils suddenly transformed; his left eye turned into an abyssal black hole, and his right eye into a bright pearl, luminous as daylight.
One black, one white; the flux of yin and yang!
From within Wang Yang’s eyes, two beams of light erupted, staring directly at the Demon Clan corpse.
Ever since last time he performed Soul Search on the Sea of Consciousness of a member of the Demon Clan and discovered that a Prohibition existed, Wang Yang had thought of another method.
Conceptual Method!
However, this Technique could only be used on the deceased.
After death, the Demon Clan’s Prohibition within the Sea of Consciousness would naturally lift, but the memories would not completely disappear; some would remain. Although incomplete, they would still reveal some information.
Whether or not he could obtain useful memories would depend on Wang Yang’s luck.
As time passed, a faint, illusory image began to rise above the corpse of the Steward Venerable, slowly taking shape.
In the image, the Steward Venerable stood behind a man in a Black Robe, acting very respectfully, while the man in the Black Robe conversed with someone clad in luxurious attire, seemingly discussing something.
The faces of both the man in the Black Robe and the person in luxurious attire were indistinct, their clothing details also unclear.
Just as Wang Yang was about to give up, a woman’s figure suddenly entered the image; the woman was dressed in a deep purple, gossamer long gown, her back to Wang Yang, but he could clearly see a tattoo on her right shoulder!
This tattoo was very special; it was a jet-black dragon!
Demon Dragon!
Only the descendants of the Direct Line of the Demon Lord had the right to bear the tattoo of the Demon Dragon!
The image ended there and dissipated with the wind; Wang Yang’s expression turned solemn. It seemed a significant figure from the Demon Clan had already arrived in this Square World.
Although the woman’s Cultivation Level might not be high, her Bloodline was undeniably noble.
"Senior Brother, did you discover anything?"
Su Yue asked as the image vanished.
Wang Yang nodded; this information seemed trivial, but it was valuable.
"Within Ice Cold City, events are afoot; after entering the city, we need an identity, one that will allow us to visit Prince Wang Siyun!"
Wang Yang felt that all of this seemed related to the Prince, who was rumored to be unable to pursue Cultivation, and thus planned to visit the Royal Palace at the first opportunity.
If there was a connection to the Demon Clan within the Royal Palace, as long as he could get there, he was certain to uncover some clues.
"Senior Brother, Yue’er has an idea!"
"Oh?"
Wang Yang was immediately intrigued upon hearing this, and Su Yue began to speak with a smile.
"As everyone knows, Wang Siyun has no aptitude for Cultivation, but he is obsessed with music, chess, calligraphy, painting, and the art of dance. With Senior Brother’s talent, music and fine arts will naturally not be a problem!"
Wang Yang’s eyes lit up; this was indeed a good idea.
"Hmm! Not bad!"
With Wang Yang’s approval, Su Yue was very pleased when suddenly, a loud noise from outside the cave violently shook the ground within.
Wang Yang and Su Yue looked at each other and simultaneously rushed out of the cave. Because of the cave’s high elevation, they had a broad view and could clearly see that it was an army!
The army was massive, with at least three thousand cavalry. In the front, military banners fluttered, embroidered with a blue wolf head!
Cold Wolf Army!
The army led by the Seven Wolf Marquis, Marquis of Mountain Suppression Li Bu!
"Young Master, judging by their direction, it seems they’re heading to Jinling Town!"
"Hmm!"
Wang Yang nodded, but the Cold Wolf Army should have been stationed far off in Hantian City in the Northern Territories, so how could they appear in this region under the jurisdiction of Ice Cold City.
After all, Rigorous Winter City was Prince Wang Siyun’s fief. If the Imperial Court received news of a massacre in Jinling Town, the first to appear should have been the local garrison of Ice Cold City, not the Cold Wolf Army from Hantian City!
An army’s movement must be sanctioned by a document from the Six Ministries or by a decree from Your Majesty; crossing borders without permission was a serious taboo!
What puzzled Wang Yang the most was that the people of Jinling Town had been annihilated by Steward Venerable, leaving no survivors, so the news could not possibly have leaked in a single night.
Moreover, with Hantian City hundreds of miles away from here, calculating the time, this three-thousand cavalry of the Cold Wolf Army must have set off last night and arrived here overnight!
Combining this with the scene he witnessed from the image of the Steward Venerable, Wang Yang suddenly conceived a possibility.
"Yue’er, let’s go, follow them!"
Wang Yang’s figure flashed as he pursued the Cold Wolf Army, with Yue’er closely following; the two figures disappeared into the cave, one after the other.
If the Cold Wolf Army had advanced knowledge of the events in Jinling Town and came to handle the aftermath, it suggested the Steward Venerable, the so-called Emissary of the Demon Clan, had a deep connection with the Imperial Court’s army.
And if mere cleanup was necessary, sending a regular army would suffice, not the elite Cold Wolf Army.
Marquis of Mountain Suppression’s task was to search for the Holy Infant of the Golden Dragon Phenomenon in the Northern Territories, not to deal with miscellaneous matters under local jurisdiction.
There must be secrets within Jinling City that warranted the Cold Wolf Army traveling hundreds of miles overnight!
Jinling Town had been blood-washed by the Steward Venerable overnight, and even now, the town was still saturated with the thick stench of blood.
Bang bang bang!
The three thousand cavalry of the Cold Wolf Army arrived, not pausing at all, and surged directly into Jinling Town, indifferent to the mountains of corpses and seas of blood before them.
After the Cold Wolf Army entered the town, a few hundred cavalry were left to guard the entrance, then they split into two groups: one continued straight, and the other made a beeline towards Jinling Inn.
