At the same time, in another area of the Imperial Capital, there were riots and powerful auras spreading out.
For a moment, the entire Imperial Capital was in an uproar.
In the Maple Guard Camp, Si Chengxin was constantly receiving news from his subordinates in his office. His expression was extremely ugly.
"Is this about Tong Menghan? He actually dared to be impudent in the Imperial Capital! Damn it!"
"Go ahead," he said after some thought. "Inform all the Maple Guards to take action and suppress the chaos."
A Battle-King who was standing at the side nodded slightly. "Yes!"
Then, Si Chengxin and the others left as well.
In the military camp guarded by Maple Guards, Si Tingfeng's eyes flickered and his expression turned cold when he heard the report.
"Tong Menghan...Let's go and suppress the chaos."
As a captain of the Maple Guards, he naturally had his own subordinates. Si Tingfeng left the military camp with his subordinates.
....
Daqu City, in a hidden basement.
Li Qinghe looked at the corpse of the Soul Devouring Pearl's owner that was slowly burning in front of her. There was a hint of shock on her pretty face.
Previously, Lu Yuan had killed the owner of the Soul Devouring Pearl with just one sword attack, which shocked her.
Looking at the Soul Devouring Pearl floating in the air, Li Qinghe came back to her senses and looked at Lu Yuan with a surprised expression.
"Little Brother Yuan, your strength is actually already so strong."
Lu Yuan smiled. "That's already close to his full strength. Otherwise, if this guy were to react and fight, the ordinary people outside would suffer heavy casualties."
"Understood." Li Qinghe nodded. "I understand."
She watched Lu Yuan put away the Soul Devouring Pearl and said with a smile,
"This is the third one. There are still eight more. As long as we retrieve those Soul Devouring Beads, there shouldn't be any danger."
Lu Yuan nodded. "Next, let's go to another city where the mutation phenomenon has occurred. Where is the next one?"
Li Qinghe thought for a moment and said, "The next one is in Taichuan City. The mutation phenomenon has just appeared there. Can you sense the source?"
Lu Yuan thought for a moment.
He didn't say anything. If the owner of the Soul Devouring Pearl behind him had completely activated the mutation phenomenon, then his spiritual power fluctuation wouldn't be so intense. Even Lu Yuan would find it difficult to sense it. Perhaps a small range would be fine, but if the range was too large, it wouldn't work.
This was the case when Lu Yuan and Li Qinghe first appeared in Xikou City.
However, he still had to go over and take a look.
Lu Yuan wrapped his arms around Li Qinghe's slender waist. Space fluctuated, and the two of them disappeared from where they were.
In the next moment, the two of them appeared in the sky above Tai Chuan City.
As soon as Lu Yuan and Li Qinghe were in the air, they saw the dark clouds that covered the sky not far away and the surging evil aura.
Li Qinghe looked at Lu Yuan expectantly.
At this moment, Lu Yuan was also looking at the evolution cube in his body with anticipation.
Then, Lu Yuan frowned slightly. The Evolution Cube did not vibrate.
"What's wrong? Can't I?"
Li Qinghe asked when she saw Lu Yuan's expression.
Lu Yuan thought for a moment. "Let's go around and take a look. Maybe we'll find something."
Li Qinghe nodded.
Then, the two of them moved around Taichuan City.
Not long after he moved, Lu Yuan's body suddenly stopped, and then a hint of joy appeared on his face.
The Evolution Cube in his body finally shook slightly.
"I got it!"
He brought Li Qinghe and changed directions, moving toward the direction where the Evolution Cube was shaking more and more violently.
Not long after, they stopped in a residential building.
Li Qinghe looked at the ten-meter-tall residential building with a hint of surprise in her eyes.
"Brother Yuan, is the owner of the Soul Devouring Bead here?"
Lu Yuan also did not expect to be in such a crowded place.
The previous three Soul Devouring Beads were in the basement, but this guy was actually hiding in the crowd.
"I think so. Let's go up and take a look," he said with a slight frown.
Lights flashed in every household in the residential building. Many people were still awake.
After all, the mutation phenomenon was serious, and not many people could sleep soundly now.
According to the vibration notification of the Evolution Cube, Lu Yuan quickly locked onto a room on the eighth floor.
Lu Yuan and Li Qinghe looked at each other. Li Qinghe smiled and reached out to grab Lu Yuan's arm. Strands of dark power surged around her and enveloped the two of them.
Then, they blended into the shadows, passed through the door, and entered.
Li Qinghe, who possessed the power of darkness, could naturally do what Lu Yuan did before.
However, Li Qinghe's power of darkness was not as strong as Lu Yuan's, so the concealment effect was not as good.
However, it was not a problem for Lu Yuan.
He could secretly enhance the Power of Darkness around Li Qinghe and conceal the effects of the Soul Devouring Pearl from the owner.
The previous owner of the Soul Devouring Bead was easily killed by Lu Yuan and Li Qinghe when they approached him.
Soon, the two of them found the owner of the Soul Devouring Bead in a room. He was controlling the black shadow to devour souls from a distance.
It was a handsome young man with curly black hair.
Li Qinghe automatically let go of Lu Yuan's hand, and Lu Yuan disappeared from where he was. In the next moment, he appeared behind the young man.
The young man reacted immediately. However, before he could do anything, his body was slashed by the golden sword light, and his vitality dissipated.
