Southwest of Spring City, eighty miles away.

call!

The wind was blowing hard, and I followed Yi Lie through the wilderness, not knowing where he was going to take me.

I haven't seen him for half a year. At this time, Yi Lie's Taoist aura is restrained, and his whole person seems to have been reborn.

Thinking about it, he should have understood his own Tao by now, and his cultivation and Taoism are also different.

Suddenly, a lush solitary mountain appeared in front of him, and Yi Lie's figure flashed directly towards the solitary mountain.

On the stone wall at the foot of the mountain, three large characters are engraved with flying dragons and phoenixes.

"Lookout Mountain."

This Lookout Mountain doesn't look very high, only about a hundred feet high. I don't know why Yi Lie brought me here.

After a while, Yi Lie and I arrived at the top of Lookout Mountain.

Yi Lie's footsteps slowly stopped and he stood in front of the cliff.

"Didn't you say you were going to take me to find Gu Lezun? What are you doing here?"

Yi Lie did not speak, but pointed towards the cliff.

Looking in the direction Yi Lie pointed, he saw a mirror-like lake in front of the mountain.

On the bank of the lake, there is a village with ancient charm.

At this time, the village was filled with red lanterns and colorful silks, and a wooden platform about ten meters high was built on the embankment near the lake.

You can vaguely see the crowds of people in the village, as if they are preparing for some grand event.

"This is the place where the black witch remnants have lived and thrived for generations. Gulezun is not a person's name, but a name for the great shaman of the black witch clan.

When I was still an infant, I was brought back by the previous great shaman of the Black Witch Clan and designated as his successor, the new generation of Gu Lerzun.

If nothing happens, I will become the new great shaman of the Black Witch Clan when I grow up."

"Come on...if there is no accident, then there must be an accident."

I clapped my hands, already understanding the development of the situation.

Yi Lie nodded, seeming to be lost in memories.

"Twenty years ago, the Great Sasha passed away unexpectedly, which resulted in a rebellion within the Black Witch Clan.

Elder Nan Li deceived the clan members and falsely accused me of being the reincarnated demon boy, intending to get rid of me."

I spread my hands and murmured softly.

"It seems he was right! As we all know, you are indeed a half-demon!"

As soon as I finished speaking, I could already feel Yi Lie's gaze like a blade.

"You say, you continue to say..."

Yi Lie shook his head and explained.

"It's true that I am half-demon, but little did I know that the Great Shaman chose me as his new successor precisely because of my status as half-demon.

Only a half-demon can control those demon eyes."

Looking at Yi Lie's solemn look, it didn't look like he was joking.

This reminded me of the terrifying black eyes covered by the white cloth, but what Yi Lie mentioned just now was a pair of demon eyes.

"Why do I get more and more confused the more I listen to it? What exactly do you mean by the demon pupil?"

Yi Lie slowly turned around and looked towards the village by the lake.

"Have you heard the story of King Yu locking dragons?"

I frowned, what does this have to do with King Yu Suojiao?

King Yu is also known as Dayu. According to legend, when Dayu was controlling the floods, the great demon of Huai River supported Qi and caused trouble.

This Wu Zhiqi is highly skilled in Taoism and has hundreds of thousands of mountain spirits and water monsters under his command.

King Yu ordered the god Gengchen to fight Wu Zhiqi for several days and finally defeated him.

So King Yu tied Wu Zhiqi's neck with an iron chain, locked his nose with a golden bell, and suppressed him under the Turtle Mountain forever.

Wu Zhiqi was unwilling to be suppressed under the Turtle Mountain forever, so he used secret techniques to peel off his pair of demon pupils and injected his own powerful demon power into them.

One of them is the pupil of nothingness, and the other is the pupil of disaster.

Whoever possesses this pair of demon eyes can control the powerful demon power in these demon eyes.

Originally, Wu Zhiqi wanted to give these demon eyes to his son and continue to lead the Huaishui demon soldiers to cause harm to the world.

Unexpectedly, Wuzhiqi's three sons died in the battle one after another, and these pair of demon eyes finally merged with a half-demon named Li Yuan due to a strange combination of circumstances.

Although Li Yuan has the blood of the demon race, he also maintains the rationality of the human race.

Relying on its own powerful thoughts, this half-demon was not eroded by the bloodthirsty aura, and actually perfectly integrated and controlled the pair of demon eyes.

After Li Yuan took control of the pair of demon eyes, he couldn't bear the people being displaced due to floods, so he left Huai River incognito.

After decades of wandering, they finally thrived under the Lookout Mountain and lived in seclusion.

In the end, today's Black Witch Clan was derived. It can be said that Li Yuan is the ancestor of the Black Witch Clan, the first Gulezun.

Two thousand years ago, Li Yuan suddenly disappeared.

He left nothing behind, only these pair of demon eyes.

It is a pity that among the next successors, because the blood of the demon clan is getting thinner and thinner, no one can fuse this pair of demon eyes.

The former glory of the Black Witch Clan is no longer there, and its talents are withering away.

This pair of demon eyes has been kept by Gu Lezun of the black witch clan for generations.

Until twenty years ago, the predecessor Gurezun accidentally picked up an infant baby when he was out, brought it back to the family and declared the child as his successor.

This child is me.

Unfortunately, changes occurred within the Black Witch Clan soon. The predecessor Gulezun died suddenly, and the elder Nan Li usurped Gulezun's position.

If grandpa hadn't risked his life to rescue me, I might have met with something unexpected.

It's a pity that the Eye of Disaster among the pair of demon eyes was snatched away by Nan Li, and I inherited the other Eye of Nothingness.

Grandpa was an old servant of his predecessor Gu Lezun, and he was also the only insider of the whole matter.

I was raised by him, and he taught me all my skills.

A year ago, my grandfather was nearing his end of life and he told me before he died.

The energy contained in this pair of demon eyes is so huge that only half-demon can have the opportunity to completely control them.

Neither demons nor humans can truly control these demon eyes.

Otherwise there will be disaster!

In fact, even if you don't come to me, I will fulfill my grandfather's last wish and get the other demon pupil back.

The tribe has been deceived for too long, I must let them understand that I am the real Gulerzun?"

I smacked my lips and was speechless.

"Let me interrupt you! Could you please tell me how many people there are in the Black Witch Clan now?"

"The Black Witch Clan is conservative and has stopped marrying outsiders since our ancestor Li Yuan left.

Therefore, after a thousand years, the number of people in the clan has decreased instead of increasing, and now there are less than 500 people."

I couldn't help but hum.

Five hundred people?

You must know that when the Laolingou Forest Farm was prosperous, there were thousands of people. In a densely populated plain area, a village might have more than 500 people.
