Second Brother smiled as he removed the sealing barrier that blocked the entrance. As this sealing barrier was removed, a strong surge of Demon Qi immediately emanated from within the passage.

Feeling this surge of Demon Qi, Ye Zhiqiu's expression changed, and the hand gripping his beer can involuntarily tightened a few degrees.

However, just at that moment, Yang Haoran lightly nudged him with his body and gave him a look. Only then did he slowly release his tight grip on the beer can.

In just a brief moment, the intense Demon Qi had already permeated the entire room, and was still spreading outwards.

However, the room was still enveloped by a sealing barrier, so Second Brother wasn't worried that the Demon Qi here would spread throughout the entire Cloud Mist Mountain Manor.

Of course, even if the Demon Qi truly permeated the entire Cloud Mist Mountain Manor, he wasn't worried in the slightest. After all, their five brothers were Demon Hunters to begin with, and it was only natural for Demon Qi to emanate from their dwelling.

As for whether anyone would sense the Demon Qi and come to exorcise or steal demons, in his opinion, no one would dare. After all, their five brothers were not to be trifled with. Moreover, New Sun City had a Demon Hunter Association branch; such an act would be a direct challenge to the entire Demon Hunter Association. No one but a fool would do such a thing.

Besides, in all these years, their five brothers had never encountered anything similar.

Of course, this was merely Second Brother's personal opinion. What he didn't know was that not only were people having designs on them, but those very people were right by his side at that very moment.

Just like before, Second Brother walked ahead, with Yang Haoran and the two others following closely behind.

Outside the barrier, Fifth Brother smoked the cigarette Yang Haoran had personally lit for him. Watching Yang Haoran and the three others enter the room and then the underground passage, a hesitant expression involuntarily appeared on his face.

After thinking for a moment, he pulled out his phone and dialed a number.

“Fifth Brother, what do you need me for? ”

After the call connected, a man's voice sounded.

“Fourth Brother, could you come over? There’s something I need to discuss with you,” Fifth Brother said.

“What is it? Can't you say it over the phone? ” the other party asked, puzzled.

“It’s not clear over the phone; just come over,” Fifth Brother replied.

“Alright, I understand. Wait for me. ”

After hanging up the phone, Fifth Brother's expression was conflicted as he waited for Fourth Brother to arrive.

He hadn't told Fourth Brother his location, but since he hadn't sealed his own power fluctuations, Fourth Brother could sense where he was.

A few breaths later, the space beside Fifth Brother violently rippled, then a rift in space tore open, and a figure stepped out from within.

“Fifth Brother, Fourth Brother is very busy. Why are you so anxious to find me, and why does it have to be in person to explain clearly? ” Fourth Brother asked.

Fifth Brother didn't beat around the bush, stating directly, “Second Brother brought outsiders in. ”

As he spoke, Fifth Brother gestured towards the small room within the barrier, whose door was open.

Hearing this, Fourth Brother's expression didn't change much.

“I thought it was something major. So what if Second Brother brought a few people in? Although this room is typically used for our discussions, it occasionally comes in handy when important guests arrive to talk business. You're aware of this, so what's there to be so surprised about? ”

After Fourth Brother finished speaking, he casually ripped through space, seemingly preparing to leave.

Fifth Brother hurriedly grabbed Fourth Brother, then said anxiously, “Fourth Brother, look closely! Second Brother didn't just bring outsiders into the room, he also took them *downstairs*! ”

Afraid that Fourth Brother hadn't seen, Fifth Brother pointed towards the room. Fourth Brother, looking suspicious, followed the direction of Fifth Brother’s finger.

Although the passage was built at ground level, the two of them weren't too far from the room at that moment. Moreover, since they were both Demon Hunters, possessing powers that ordinary people lacked, their vision was considerably better than that of common folk. They saw the open passage at a glance.

Fourth Brother's brow furrowed, and his expression changed.

“What exactly is going on? ” Fourth Brother asked.

Hearing this, Fifth Brother took a final drag from the cigarette in his hand, tossed the butt, and explained everything he had just witnessed to Fourth Brother.

After listening to Fifth Brother's explanation, Fourth Brother's brow furrowed even deeper.

“I did sense a power fluctuation earlier, and the other party's power was our Demon Hunters' Star Spirit Power, so I assumed it must be a Demon Hunter visiting our manor. With Elder Brother away, Second Brother is in charge of matters within the manor. As long as they weren't here to cause trouble, I saw no need to show myself. But Second Brother's actions have left me somewhat baffled. ”

“I thought the same thing, but when I sensed them arrive here, I felt something was amiss, so I came to check on the situation. I never expected Second Brother to disregard my objections and forcefully lead the outsiders inside. ”

As Fourth Brother listened to Fifth Brother's explanation, he frowned in thought. Suddenly, his expression subtly changed, and he asked, “Just now you said there was a stunningly beautiful woman among them? ”

Fifth Brother nodded, then said, “Indeed, there was a stunningly beautiful woman. I’ve never seen anyone so incredibly beautiful before, and Second Brother even said that woman would be our sister-in-law from now on. ”

“Among the five of us, Second Brother is the most fond of women. Coupled with his arrogant and face-obsessed personality, it’s not surprising he’d do something like this when he encounters a stunning beauty. However, I’m quite curious about their true purpose,” Fourth Brother said in a deep voice.

“Should we inform Elder Brother first? You know Second Brother’s personality. If he insists on taking people in, and we try to stop him now, he’ll definitely feel he’s lost face, and then he’ll take his anger out on us,” Fifth Brother said.

Fourth Brother nodded, then said in a deep voice, “Among our five brothers, Second Brother is the eldest besides Elder Brother, and no one else can stop Second Brother. If Elder Brother doesn't personally intervene in this matter, the two of us won't just fail to handle it, we’ll also anger Second Brother. The best course of action is to inform Elder Brother and let him decide. ”

“Alright, I thought so too! I’ll contact Elder Brother right away! ”

As Fifth Brother spoke, he immediately picked up his phone, preparing to dial again. Previously, he had called Fourth Brother, but this time, he decided to call their Elder Brother.

However, just as he was about to dial, his body suddenly swayed slightly, and then a mouthful of black blood spurted from his mouth.

This sudden turn of events not only confused him but also caused Fourth Brother’s expression to change dramatically.

“Fifth Brother, what’s wrong? Weren’t your injuries from the last great battle stabilized? Why are you spitting blood again? ”

Fourth Brother hurriedly supported Fifth Brother. When he saw Fifth Brother's face darken, and black blood seeping from his nostrils and the corners of his eyes, his expression changed once more.

“No, this isn't an old wound from the last great battle. You've been poisoned! ”

In the short time Fourth Brother spoke, Fifth Brother's face grew progressively darker, and the skin on his body began to blacken at a visible rate.

Fifth Brother coughed violently, expelling large amounts of black blood directly from his mouth.

“Why would you suddenly be poisoned? Quickly, mobilize the Star Spirit Power in your body and force all the toxins out! ”

Fourth Brother quickly urged him. At this moment, Fifth Brother had no mind to ponder why he had suddenly been poisoned. Feeling his physical body rapidly being destroyed by the potent poison, he hurriedly mobilized the Star Spirit Power within him, doing his utmost to expel the venom.

Meanwhile, Yang Haoran, following Second Brother, had already arrived beneath the small room.

After passing through a spacious passage, their vision suddenly widened. Beneath the small room, there was actually a considerable underground chamber.

Rather than calling it a basement, it was more accurately described as a dungeon.

Within the dungeon, there were quite a few cells, but all the ones they passed were empty. Although these cells were vacant, each one, to varying degrees, still allowed them to sense the presence of Demon Qi, indicating that at least recently, demons had been imprisoned in them.

At the end of the dungeon was a distinct area, filled with various torture instruments. Some of these instruments even had dried bloodstains on them.

Judging by these diverse and menacing-looking torture instruments, this area was clearly designated for interrogations.

However, at this moment, Yang Haoran had no mind for these torture instruments. His gaze was entirely drawn to the beautiful woman trapped on a rack ahead. Night God Under the Moon
