The guard led Dugu Yifeng to the front. After a few turns, he pointed to a spot in front of them and said, "Young Master, this is the place."

Borrowing the scattered light of the fire, Dugu Yifeng and the others focused their eyes and instantly, they all raised their eyebrows. They looked at each other for a moment before walking forward. Taking a closer look, a long stone wall was suddenly missing a flight of steps.

The staircase gave off a faint glow in the darkness. It was very weak, but in this sort of environment, it was very easy to detect.

Dugu Yifeng scanned the area with his consciousness and found that it was indeed the same as the first floor. The stairs here were not made of stone either. Moreover, it seemed that the steps here were slightly different from the ones on the first level.

Letting out his consciousness to scan through again, Dugu Yifeng instantly wrinkled his brow, before releasing his consciousness again and again to scan this step.

Seeing Dugu Yifeng frown and his eyes fixed on the stairs in front of him, Ling Wuchen, who was standing behind him, was filled with doubt. "Yifeng, what's wrong?"

This question instantly brought Dugu Yifeng back to reality. He paused for a moment, before faintly smiling, "The material of this step gives me a very familiar feeling. It seems to be somewhere …"

As he spoke, Dugu Yifeng wrinkled his brow even more. The others beside him did the same. However, he then smiled and said, "It's fine, it might be my misconception. "Come, let's continue down."

Dugu Yifeng took the lead and slowly walked forward. The people behind him didn't say anything more.

As they walked, they discovered that Dugu Yifeng had suddenly stopped. They stepped forward to take a look, "Yifeng, this is... Footprints? " Ling Wuchen was the first one to walk up. He immediately noticed the faint footprints on the stairs. Looking at the shape of the footprints again, they were clearly human footprints.

"En, footprint." Dugu Yifeng softly replied, then silently pondered about something.

"Yifeng, look at these footprints. It seems that the people of the Fierce Demon Stronghold have passed by here." After looking at the footprints for a while, Lin Zheng softly said to Dugu Yifeng.

When Dugu Yifeng heard Lin Zheng's words, he nodded his head slightly. This was exactly what he had thought in his heart. However, Dugu Yifeng had a doubt in his heart. With the mere strength of the Fierce Demon Stronghold, it was impossible for them to break through the blockade of the Silver Striped Golden Snake and Silver Striped Silver Snake groups. But now …

Doubtful, Dugu Yifeng cast his gaze towards the surrounding walls.

But at this moment, Dugu Yifeng's ears suddenly twitched, and his consciousness emerged from his body. He immediately looked down.

"Hurry, there's movement below!" Dugu Yifeng called out to the few people behind him.

Upon hearing Dugu Yifeng's words, Ling Wuchen and the rest of his men immediately waved their hands, and the guards immediately followed behind them.

Dugu Yifeng's footsteps were very fast. In a few dozen breaths time, he had crossed the bottom of the stairs. After a flight of steps passed, the surrounding space suddenly lit up with candlelight. He did not care about these things, and directly rushed towards the direction of the sound. As he was being led through another cave, the candles were instantly extinguished, as if no one had ever been there before.

After a few turns, Dugu Yifeng finally reached the place where the sound had come from. The sound had stopped long ago. On the way here, Dugu Yifeng could feel that he had stopped.

He arrived at a cave. This cave was very large and tall. He could tell by his intuition that this cave was at least three hundred feet tall. Normal people would not be able to jump out. At the highest point of the cave, there was an open entrance. Light directly shone in from there, illuminating the entire place.

The cave was very bright, and Dugu Yifeng could see it clearly. He came to the right place. This place was indeed the place where the remnants of the Evil Devil Stronghold hid. However, they … All dead.

Dugu Yifeng looked at the people lying on the ground. He took a deep breath and walked past every single one of them. He had sent out his consciousness to check if anyone was still alive before he had even passed by them.

After that, Ling Wuchen and the others arrived as well. When they saw the corpses that covered the ground, they were all stunned as well. Ling Wuchen reacted subconsciously, "Yifeng, what's going on? Did you kill these people? "

Dugu Yifeng did not say anything. He only gently shook his head. There were dozens of corpses on the ground, and Dugu Yifeng was squatting beside one of them. His eyes were constantly scanning his body as if he was looking for some clues.

"Young master Wu Chen, these people weren't created by young master!" Lin Zheng scrutinized the corpses in front of him. "These people's wounds are from sabers." And the weapon that young master uses is his sword! "

After hearing what Lin Xin said, Ling Wuchen took a closer look and a 'as expected' look appeared on his face.

Ling Jianjue, who was standing to the side, slowly advanced to Dugu Yifeng's side and took a look at the corpse in front of him. It's that Second Leader from the Fierce Demon Stronghold! " Ling Jian let out a surprised cry from his mouth.

Immediately, Ling Jianjue's words attracted the attention of the people around him. When they saw the corpse, they were extremely shocked.

According to their intelligence, although this Second Leader was scheming to control the entire Fierce Demon Stronghold, his strength was not weak, and he had already reached the Pre-Sky Realm.

But now, he was actually killed, and judging from his injuries, he didn't even have any form of resistance. After a few rounds, he was finished by his opponent.

Obviously, the person who killed this Second Boss was an expert, an extraordinary expert.

"Yifeng, we have to leave this place as soon as possible." Ling Wuchen thought of the same thing and said. The Second Leader of the Evil Devil Stronghold was a master of the Pre-Sky Realm and was killed so easily. If we were to meet the person who killed him, I'm afraid we will meet the same fate. "

Lin Zheng nodded his head in agreement. Ling Wuchen's words were not without sense. However, Dugu Yifeng said at this time, "Don't panic. This person actually killed the second in command of the Evil Devil Stronghold. He might not have any enmity with us for such a long time. Since he has no enmity with us, he has no reason to attack us! "

Although Dugu Yifeng felt a sense of danger in his heart, he still believed in his judgement.

"Young master, we should leave as soon as possible. It doesn't look like a good place to be. " Lin Zheng opened his mouth, but he was also a bit worried.

"Yes, Uncle Lin is right." Although we don't know who killed the evil remnants of the Evil Devil Stronghold, but since they were already exterminated, our mission was still completed. We should leave as soon as possible. However, "Dugu Yifeng looked at the surrounding area and smiled," We still have to pack up all the treasures that we have accumulated over the years and bring back with us.

Hearing Dugu Yifeng's words, Ling Jianjue and the rest who were extremely worried immediately relaxed. After that, they each led their teams to search for the hidden treasures.

After all, the Fierce Demon Stronghold had been doing great for the Twin Emperor Mountain Range for decades. The amount of wealth they had was definitely not a small amount.

Ling Wuchen and the others brought their guards to search the surrounding area. Dugu Yifeng came alone to the corpse of the second chief of the Evil Devil Stronghold.

When Dugu Yifeng had been squatting beside the corpse and inspecting its wounds, he had noticed that the Second Leader was wearing a blue ring on his right finger. He didn't have any banknotes or anything of the sort.

As the second in command of the infamous Fierce Demon Stronghold, he actually didn't have any belongings on his body. This was simply impossible. Thus, this time, Dugu Yifeng's gaze was directed at his injured ring.

"This ring … It looks like …" It seems to be a secret … " Dugu Yifeng thought to himself.
