Heavenly Official Sends Evil

Chapter 849 Dark Phantom
What's lurking behind the scenes in the new village is far more troublesome than ordinary evil spirits.

It has not yet revealed its true form; all that is known is that its will can be transferred through different bodies, which can be a beastman or the carcass of a skinned wild deer.

The number of bodies controlled by it is unknown, the method of transfer is unknown, and how to stop this transfer is also unknown.

Violence alone is simply not enough to catch something like this.

Even if the entire new village is destroyed, the will of the person behind it may still be hidden within the shell of the county town.

Therefore, the only way to capture him is to find a way to lure out his true form, just like we did at the 'Family Experience Center' before. Once he shows up, seal off the entire area to completely cut off any possibility of his escape.

Wu Xian returned to Xincun to act as this bait.

That's why he told Ge Feng that he would be leaving for Fuyuan City tomorrow with Wang Chunyan and two others.

Since the person behind the scenes is targeting the familiar with special pets, he certainly won't let Wu Xian and the others leave easily.

Let's go back to Wang Chunyan.

As soon as she entered, Wu Xian noticed that she hadn't brought the 'baboon' with her.

Therefore, it is highly likely that she has already transformed into a beast-like being.

However, Wu Xian did not expose her, but instead followed the topic and told her all his analysis of the person behind the scenes.

Wu Xian rested his hands on the back of the chair, deliberately pretending to be very relaxed.

"This village is really too eerie. I risked my life to return here for three days and finally investigated the matter. After I leave tomorrow, I will report my findings to the City God's Office. This mess has nothing to do with me anymore. I just came here for a vacation. Why did I have to get involved in such a dangerous thing!"

If Wang Chunyan is already under control, then once she learns that Wu Xian has seen through her secret, she is very likely to launch a sudden attack and not let Wu Xian return alive.

After hearing this, Wang Chunyan nodded like a chick pecking at rice, her oval face covered in sweat from fright: "What you said makes a lot of sense. After I leave tomorrow, I won't come back!"

Wu Xian breathed a sigh of relief for the time being.

He initially believed that Wang Chunyan had been taken into custody, but halfway through the conversation, he felt that Wang Chunyan might be normal.

Firstly, Wang Chunyan's monkeys were still there until nightfall, and everyone was at the guesthouse that night. If the person behind the scenes had used their abilities, there was no reason for them to miss Wu Xian.

Secondly, Wang Chunyan's various reactions were too real. If she could fake it to this extent after being controlled, then the disguise ability of the person behind the scenes was too terrifying!

Since Wang Chunyan had passed the simple test, Wu Xian believed her to some extent, but there was still a 70% chance that she had been controlled. So Wu Xian asked directly:

"Where's your monkey? Why didn't you bring it with you?"

Wang Chunyan looked puzzled at first, but then she understood why Wu Xian asked the question.

"You're afraid I've already been controlled, right? I didn't bring the baboon because it's safe here, there's no need for it to protect me. Besides, I'm afraid it might cause trouble along the way. You know that monkey is very vain, and also..."

Boom, boom, boom.

Before I could even voice the last reason, there was a knock on the door.

The knocking came from He Qiao and Yang Xingxing, one carrying a case of ice-cold beer and the other a huge lunchbox, as they sneaked in.

“Brother Wu, things have been tough in the village these past few days, there’s not much to eat.” “So Uncle Ge specially had someone buy barbecue and beer from the county town and send it over. We’re heading to Fuyuan City tomorrow, so let’s have a late-night snack tonight.”

The aroma of barbecue wafted over, slightly whetting Wu Xian's appetite.

"Wait, don't come any closer!"

This shout left He Yang and the other man bewildered. Wang Chunyan said in a trembling voice:
"The third reason I didn't mention earlier is about the food. The food was delivered to the village center, and Uncle Ge sent a text message to the three of us to pick it up. On the way, I suddenly wanted to talk to you, so I had the baboon accompany me to pick up the food, while I came to you alone."

"Now that I think about it, Uncle Ge probably asked us to go get the food together just to separate us from you."

"Moreover, under normal circumstances... Raven Sangbiao would never miss a midnight snack, and Fox Dada would definitely stick to He Qiao!"

Wang Chunyan's words were very clear.

That is, at this time, He Qiao and Yang Xingxing had already become beastmen!
Seeing that their identities had been exposed, He and Yang exchanged a glance, and with a sickeningly loud sound, their bodies underwent terrifying changes at the same time.

Three white tails, stained with blood, emerged from He Qiao's coccyx. His mouth and nose protruded and grew white hair, and his eyes gleamed with an eerie and terrifying light.

After the transformation ended, he ecstatically stroked his body, writhing and emitting morbid and piercing screams.
"Ah... Hmph... You've finally become mine completely, we're one now!"

Yang Xingxing's face was stretched into the shape of a sharp bird's beak. Her original mouth and nose were transformed into the patterns on the bird's beak, and her eyes were stretched into the nostrils on the bird's beak. Messy, bloody feathers grew on her arms and body.

He glared fiercely at Wu Xian, and his mouth immediately spewed vulgarities:

"What are you looking at? Looking for a beating? Watch out or I'll grab you and send you flying, making you sit all the way down the flagpole!"

Upon seeing the evil spirits that the two people had transformed into, Wu Xian's face suddenly darkened.

Without even engaging in combat, he could tell from their demeanor that these two were no ordinary evil spirits; they might even be more troublesome than Li Qiuhong.

But the problem isn't with the two of them...

Strange sounds also came from behind Wu Xian.

He didn't turn around, but asked in a gentle tone, "Chunyan, you just said that you turned back halfway, so... where did you go?"

Wu Xian's response was a stick made from his coccyx!
Wu Xian, who was already on guard, quickly ducked his head. The stick flashed over his head and struck the wall by the window, smashing a huge hole in the window.

Wu Xian grabbed Pang Hu, rolled over, crawled out of the hole, and ran towards the edge of Xincun Village.

He was right; the person behind it all really did reveal their hand tonight.

Furthermore, the beastmen were indeed more troublesome than he had imagined. When they were not transformed, these guys actually possessed complete memories and emotions, and their ability to disguise themselves was terrifyingly strong.

If this problem is not resolved today, it will surely become a major problem in the future!
Wu Xian had just run a short distance when he suddenly saw a dark figure fall in front of him. By the moonlight, Wu Xian could make out the outline of the dark figure.

She looked like a long-haired beauty with a slender figure, wearing a tight-fitting bodysuit, but she was nearly three meters tall. Upon closer inspection, it became clear that she wasn't wearing a bodysuit at all, but rather was covered in dark hair.

Upon closer inspection of his features, Wu Xian was surprised to discover that this person was actually Cui Yundi!

She is actually the fusion of Cui Yundi and Hei Gu!
