"What on earth are these Devil Clan up to?"

He was completely baffled and couldn't understand what conspiracy these Devil Clan were planning.

Suddenly, he saw two Devil Clan of the Martial Emperor Realm rushing forward.

He slightly furrowed his brows and immediately hid his body, not letting those two Devil Clan spot him.

If those two Martial Artists noticed him, he would instantly hurl a Flying Knife at them, and then he would escape in the opposite direction with Xiao Yueyue.

When the time came, he planned to bypass the foggy area with Xiao Yueyue.

After a while, he saw those two Devil Clan actually attack the Leopard Demon Beast.

Upon seeing the approaching Devil Clan, the Leopard Demon Beast twisted its head and turned its body, escaping instantly.

However, the right foot of the Leopard Demon Beast was injured, slowing its movements.

Moreover, those two Devil Clan possessed Treasures that could counter the local Demon Beasts. Soon, the Leopard Demon Beast was taken away by them.

Seeing the Leopard Demon Beast being taken away by the other Devil Clan, Duan Gujin's eyes flickered, filled with doubt.

He had previously speculated that the Leopard Demon Beast was there to block his retreat, but now these Devil Clan were capturing it—could his earlier guess have been wrong?

Duan Gujin observed carefully for a while and finally saw those Devil Clan take the Leopard Demon Beast into the foggy area ahead.

Seeing this, he was even more confused.

After a while, he saw all those Devil Clan enter the foggy area.

His mind stirred, and he quickly extended his Divine Sense.

This time, he searched very meticulously.

After a while, he detected no Devil Clan nearby.

Taking a deep breath, his body flashed, transforming into a streak of light, he and Xiao Yueyue rapidly dashed forward.

In less than 15 minutes, they reached the spot where those Devil Clan had previously stood.

Looking at the foggy area ahead, Duan Gujin slightly furrowed his brows.

"Could it be that those Devil Clan aren't intending to circle around to my location through the fog, but rather they are actually aiming to enter this place?"

He quickly thought of this possibility.

"What are those Devil Clan doing inside?"

Duan Gujin exhaled a breath, originally intending to leave this place.

However, the next moment, he sensed many presences nearby, all heading towards his current location.

His expression drastically changed, he glanced around and then his body flashed, disappearing into the Void as a residual image.

After a while, he saw dozens of Devil Clan arriving from a distance.

Those Devil Clan then rested at the spot where he had been before and afterward, they entered the foggy area up front.

Seeing all those Devil Clan go in, Duan Gujin suddenly realized that neither group of Devil Clan had come for him.

He originally wanted to leave, but suddenly, he saw a Devil Clan escaping from the foggy area ahead.

However, before that Devil Clan could get far, a mass of fog shot out from the foggy area toward its body and completely enveloped it.

"Ah!"

The Devil Clan let out a piercing scream from within the fog, struggling briefly.

Moments later, the fog all receded.

Although the body of that Devil Clan was still standing in place, Duan Gujin saw its body had become shriveled.

Seeing the change in the Devil Clan's body, he gasped in shock.

He released his Divine Sense, locking onto that Devil Clan.

After a while, he confirmed that the Devil Clan member was indeed dead.

"What just happened?"

He thought for a while before deciding to approach the Devil Clan member to investigate.

After a while, he arrived next to the Devil Clan member's corpse and used his Divine Sense to examine the condition of the body.

Moments later, he confirmed that the Devil Clan member was indeed dead, and all the Life Essence Blood on the body had been sucked dry.

Recalling the process of the Life Essence Blood being drained, Duan Gujin felt a chill run down his spine.

He released his Divine Sense to sense the surroundings.

However, the surroundings were very quiet, and he couldn't sense the presence of any other living creatures.

"I just realized that there are no living creatures around this area, no Demon Beasts at all!"

He took a sharp intake of breath, realizing the absence of Demon Beasts meant there was something here that even those beasts feared.

"Could it be that the Demon Beasts here were all devoured by the white fog just like that, having their Life Essence completely consumed?"

After thinking it through, he felt this possibility was very high.

He swallowed his saliva, and with a flash, he transformed into a streak of light and fled from the place.

He didn't want to stay in such a dangerous place any longer; he could only leave immediately with Xiao Yueyue.

Xiao Yueyue also witnessed the scene of the Devil Clan member being devoured by the white fog, and she too was filled with fear just like Duan Gujin.

They traveled several kilometers and then saw a large group of Devil Clan members ahead.

Much to their surprise, they discovered that these Devil Clan members had captured many Human Warriors, and many Flying Spiritual Beasts as well.

Judging by the attire of some of the Human Warriors, Duan Gujin deduced that they were people from the Spirit-controlling Immortal Sect.

"Oh no, they're my classmates!"

Xiao Yueyue quickly told Duan Gujin through a telepathic message that she saw her classmates.

"What should we do?"

She became nervous; her Divine Sense reached out and she quickly found that most of the Devil Clan members ahead had significant strength, mostly being Martial Emperor Realm in Cultivation.

If the two of them charged forward, they would not stand a chance against them.

The Devil Clan members ahead outnumbered and overpowered both of them in strength; moreover, she couldn't defeat most of them on her own.

She knew in her heart that asking Duan Gujin to risk a confrontation was essentially sending him to his death.

"Let's assess the situation first!"

Duan Gujin said quietly through a telepathic message.

His eyes widened and his eyebrows furrowed slightly.

It turned out he saw among those captured were several wearing the Inner Sect Disciple attire of the Blood Killing Sect.

It went against his principles to not help his fellow sect members in trouble.

"I want to try and see if I can rescue those Human Clan members!"

So, he followed behind those Devil Clan members with Xiao Yueyue on his back.

Moments later, Duan Gujin discovered that those Devil Clan members had taken those Human Clan members and Spiritual Beasts to the same place where he had been before.

"Strange, why do these three different groups of Devil Clan members all enter the foggy area from the same place?"

This doubt quickly flashed through his mind.

He released his Divine Sense to scrutinize the area.

However, aside from noticing a very tall towering tree, he didn't find anything unusual about the place.

Soon, the Devil Clan members rested there for a while, and after half an hour, they led those Human Clan members and Spiritual Beasts into the foggy area.
