Longevity from Liao Zhai

Chapter 180: Uncle Cripple's Death
At the last moment of his madness, Uncle Lame entrusted Yan Yi to Zhou Ping, and then rushed towards a branch.

On the branch is the invisible Suzaku.

Uncle Lame's strength has greatly increased in his demonized state, and he can already sense Suzaku's presence.

Especially just now, Zhuque nursed Uncle Lame's demon seed, which greatly enhanced the strength of the demon seed.

It can be said that Uncle Cripple is now in a stronger state than before. This is why he discovered Suzaku.

Uncle Bo knew that the mastermind behind all this was Suzaku. Suzaku was dangerous to Yan Yi. Since there was danger, Uncle Bo had to get rid of her.

"Let's go!" Zhou Ping pulled Yan Yi and was about to leave.

This is Suzaku! A top-level expert. Zhou Ping doesn't think Uncle Lame can deal with Suzaku.

With Zhou Ping's personality, he wanted to abandon Yan Yi and leave by himself, but Uncle Lame had already asked Zhou Ping to take care of Yan Yi.

However, Yan Yi was unwilling to leave. No matter how Zhou Ping pulled her, Yan Yi was unwilling to leave.

Uncle Lame rushed towards Suzaku, forcing Suzaku to show up.

However, with Uncle Bo's strength, he could only force Suzaku to show up. His strength was far inferior to Suzaku's.

Zhuque pressed down the demonized Uncle Lame with one hand, and Uncle Lame was immediately pressed to the ground by Zhuque.

Uncle Lame was pinned to the ground by Suzaku, unable to move.

The two of them are not in the same dimension at all!
"Uncle Lame." Yan Yi exclaimed. She didn't know who Zhuque was, but wanted to help Zhuque to rescue Uncle Lame. However, she was stopped by Zhou Ping.

Zhuque looked at Zhou Ping with some appreciation. This boy really has a keen eye.

"I gave you the demon seed, repaired your broken leg, and made you stronger, but how did you repay me? You even wanted to attack me." Suzaku snorted coldly, and Uncle Lame was pressed several inches underground by her again.

Uncle Lame raised his head firmly: "You can ask me to do anything, kill anyone, even the emperor, I will help you, but I will not allow you to let me hurt Xiaoyanzi, she is the person I care about most in this world, even if I die, I will not allow you to hurt her!"

"The sparrows are bathing in fire!" Uncle Lame roared.

Immediately afterwards, Uncle Lame's aura began to grow stronger.

Yan Yi's face suddenly changed, with a sad look in her eyes: "No, Uncle Lame!"

The sparrow bathes in fire.

As the old saying goes, how can a sparrow understand the ambition of a swan?

Although the sparrow is small, it has the ambition to soar into the sky.

The Yan family has a secret technique that allows them to unleash tremendous power in times of crisis, allowing them to kill people across two or three levels.

However, the price of this secret technique is very high. It only lasts for one stick of incense, and then the body will die.

The head of the Yan family also knew this technique, but he did not use it when he was in danger just now, but chose to use elixirs. He did not want to die yet, so he did not use this secret technique.

If the head of the Yan family had used the Yan family's secret technique just now, he could still have defeated Uncle Lame.

Uncle Lame has the strength of an eighth-grade warrior, but with the help of a secret technique, his strength is comparable to that of a fifth or sixth-grade warrior. With the help of the demon species, he now has the strength comparable to that of a third-grade warrior.

Zhou Ping's face suddenly changed color. He had heard Uncle Bo talk about this secret technique, but Uncle Bo did not pass it on to Zhou Ping.

Zhou Ping knew that the result of performing this secret technique would inevitably be death!

"Die!" The evil spirit in Uncle Lame was overwhelming. His obsession had changed from killing his senior brother to protecting his daughter, Xiaoyanzi.

Love is stronger than hate.

Zhuque stretched out his white little hand to block Uncle Lame. When their fists and palms collided, Zhuque actually took two steps back.

Zhuque was not surprised but delighted: "It's actually the third rank power, not bad."

Zhuque wanted to see a good show, but she didn't get to see it. However, she was a little surprised by Uncle Lame's change.

Demon species can enhance a person's strength, but demon species with regenerative abilities like Uncle Lame are rare.

"Forget it. I didn't get to see the good show. Even if he got to Yan Yi in his demonic state, there's nothing to see."

"What I want to see is this person's attitude towards Yan Yi when he is sober."

"Since he has made his choice, and the choice is not to my liking, he is useless."

Zhuque was dissatisfied with Uncle Lame's performance, so he wanted to remove the demon seed from him.

However, the power that Uncle Lame burst out made Zhuque have other ideas about him.

The demon seed will be stripped off at any time, but it is not easy to find a host with such a strong obsession.

Zhuque took out a bell and shook it gently: "Nine Nether Gods and Demons, the demon species is the guide, listen to my command."

Under Suzaku's control, Uncle Bo did not attack her again, but there was still a hint of struggle in Uncle Bo's eyes.

"The ability to regenerate is indeed rare."

"The obsession in my heart is even stronger than before, so the demonic energy has also become stronger."

Zhuque looked at the demonized Uncle Cripple as if he were looking at a beloved toy: "It's a pity that he still hasn't completely merged with the demon species, and there is resistance in his heart."

"If you give up your ego and become completely possessed by the devil, I can grant you one request." Suzaku said calmly.

The clarity in Uncle Lame's eyes slowly returned, and he struggled to look at Yan Yi in the distance: "Let my daughter Yan Yi go."

Suzaku didn't even look at it and agreed immediately: "Okay!"

Uncle Lame let out a long sigh, and then the clarity in his eyes gradually disappeared. His wish had been fulfilled, so he no longer resisted the demon's erosion.

Although the demon seed can help people become stronger, once people's desires become deeper and deeper, they will eventually be devoured by the demon seed, lose their human soul, and become completely demonized.

Zhuque was attracted by the regenerative ability of the demon species and Uncle Lame's strong obsession.

This obsession is very strong.

If Uncle Lame can completely abandon himself and merge with the demon species, Zhuque believes that the demon species' strength can be comparable to that of the second grade!
Not only that, because of the demon species' ability to regenerate, Uncle Lame's overall combat power in the demonized state will be even stronger.

That's why Suzaku gave up watching the show. Perhaps she had already seen the ending of the show, but she didn't like it.

"Xiaoyanzi, tell Brother Ounuoge that I don't hate him anymore. Also tell him that I don't owe him anything."

"He treated me like a son, and I respected him as a relative. He hurt me, and I have repaid this kindness."

"Zhou Ping, promise me that you will help me take care of Xiaoyanzi."

Uncle Cripple's consciousness slowly faded, and eventually disappeared completely, replaced by a body without a human soul.

Zhuque looked at Uncle Lame who had been completely transformed into a demon and casually cut off one of his arms, but the arm quickly grew back.

"Okay, okay, I didn't expect there would be such a pleasant surprise." Suzaku laughed and then disappeared.

The next moment, Uncle Lame also chased in one direction.

"Uncle Lame." Yan Yi shouted loudly.

However, Uncle Lame did not hesitate or pause at all, he just followed the direction of Suzaku and left.

Uncle Lame is dead.

The head of the Yan family was running away frantically, holding his chest. He had broken several ribs in the battle with Uncle Lame, which had damaged his martial arts foundation.

Feeling the demonic energy growing stronger in the distance, the head of the Yan family was frightened out of his wits. My daughter, I'm sorry, Dad doesn't want to die yet.

But before he ran far, a figure flashed past the head of the Yan family.

The figure was Uncle Lame. The head of the Yan family was so frightened that he could not help but spit out another mouthful of blood.

"Junior brother, do you really want to force me to death? You have forgotten how my brother treated you when you were a child. You also forgot that after you became disabled, I let you be in charge of the escort agency's money." The head of the Yan family roared.

However, Uncle Lame just flashed past him and then disappeared.

The head of the Yan family was completely stunned. "Uncle Lame" didn't even pause or hesitate for a moment, as if he had lost his soul.

"That means, in the end, it was the evil cult Suzaku who took Uncle Lame away?" Wang Cheng said in shock.

Zhou Ping nodded, his eyes looked tired and impatient.

The head of the Yan family fled back to Qinghe County and immediately reported Uncle Bo's whereabouts to the government.

The matter of the Demon Cult was too serious, so Wang Cheng and Captain Leng came to Zhou Ping's house to collect evidence.

Zhou Ping did not hide anything and told everyone how Uncle Lame was completely transformed into a demon and then taken away by Suzaku.

"So that's how it is. I don't know when Uncle Lame's car passed the people from the Demon Cult." Wang Cheng asked.

Zhou Ping thought for a moment and shook his head: "I don't know."

Zhou Ping did not tell Wang Cheng about the Yan family, because with his status he shouldn't know so much.

Wang Cheng is easy to fool, but Captain Leng is different.

"Zhou Ping, why did you go outside the city? Did you go outside the city to help Uncle Lame? Are you related to the Demon Cult?" The cold captain was aggressive.

Captain Leng doesn't like Zhou Ping, so Captain Wang will not let Zhou Ping go whenever he can.

Zhou Ping's eyes turned cold and he said nothing.

"Captain Leng, what are you talking about? Zhou Ping just happened to go outside the city and met Uncle Lame and the head of the Yan family. How can you say that he is a member of the Demon Cult?" Wang Cheng excused Zhou Ping.

Captain Leng said nothing. He had no real evidence.

"If I were the captain of the police, I would have sent you to jail long ago." After saying this, Captain Leng walked away without looking back.

Wang Cheng consoled him, "Zhou Ping, don't bother with this kind of person."

"This kind of people are narrow-minded and jealous. They can't stand others being better than themselves."

"Within his authority, he wants to make things as difficult for you as possible, to make you bow down to him, to satisfy his desire to be superior to you."

Wang Cheng explained.

Zhou Ping looked at Wang Cheng and was a little surprised. He didn't expect Wang Cheng to say such a thing.

Captain Leng is a person who cannot bear to see others doing well. He will suppress those around him and flatter the strong. Such people are easy to identify, but Zhou Ping did not expect Wang Cheng to say it out loud.

After all, Wang Cheng is the chief constable, which is many levels lower than a low-class escort like himself.

However, Zhou Ping had a good impression of Wang Cheng. It was impossible for a man who could become a captain of police to be honest, but he had never heard of him exploiting the people. This made him a good official.

"Wang Cheng, I know what your eyes mean." Wang Cheng smiled faintly.

"You've seen the world today. It's a lie that good people will be rewarded."

"This is a cannibalistic society. If you don't eat others, others will eat you."

"I also come from a poor family. If I hadn't been appreciated by County Magistrate Lu for my work as a human trafficker, I would have been just an ordinary clerk all my life."

"Even though I'm a police chief, I have my bottom line. I accept money, but I won't push people into desperate situations!"

Wang Cheng explained.

Zhou Ping sighed and nodded. It was indeed as Wang Cheng said, the world today was a cannibalistic world.

Perhaps because Qinghe County is too remote, the local customs seem to be quite acceptable.

However, the other people in Qinghe County that Zhou Ping met, such as Zhao Tiancheng, Song Tixia and others, were almost the same as Leng the Captain, they all wanted to eat people.

Wang Cheng clasped his fists and said, "Okay, Zhou Ping, if you have any problems in Qinghe County, you can come to me."

"Brother Wang, if you have any problem in Qinghe County, you can come to me." Zhou Ping paused, then said, "I am an eighth-rank Buddhist, with an eighth-rank cultivation base!"

Wang Cheng has shown enough sincerity, and Zhou Ping also needs to help Wang Cheng.

After all, Wang Cheng's cultivation is low. If he has Zhou Ping's support, many things will be much easier to handle.

Being a captain of police in Wangcheng is much better than being a captain of police in Leng, and it is also a good thing for the people of Qinghe County.

"Eighth level of Buddhism, eighth level of warriors. Even if you are at the seventh level, I'm afraid you won't be able to gain the upper hand against you." Wang Cheng's eyes lit up.

To Wang Cheng, he had an official position, but his cultivation was insufficient, so on weekdays, some of the officers did not take him seriously.

Moreover, the outside cultivators in Qinghe County do not take the royal city seriously.

A person of double eighth rank, and the one who wrote "Spring River Flower Rain Night", Wang Cheng felt at ease knowing that he was on good terms with such a person.

"I was right about you!" Wang Cheng took a deep breath and said. He was very grateful that he had not had any friction with Zhou Ping. Instead, he frequently expressed his goodwill to him.

At first, Wang Cheng thought Zhou Ping was a big shot because of the ghost bride. Now it seems that even without the ghost bride, Zhou Ping is still a big shot!
"I can walk around Qinghe County with my head held high from now on! Let's see which yamen runner dares not to listen to me!"

Yan Yi cried non-stop.

On this day, she lost the most important person, or two people, in her life.

Although Uncle Lame's body is still there, his soul is gone.

As for her biological father, the head of the Yan family, at the most dangerous moment, the head of the Yan family actually abandoned Yan Yi for his own life. This was something Yan Yi never expected.

In the last mission, the head of the Yan family gave up Scar, which made Yan Yi somewhat dissatisfied with the head of the Yan family.

Walking and talking, relying on a word of loyalty. Giving up Daoba made the brothers of the escort agency so disappointed.

But tonight, the head of the Yan family actually abandoned his own daughter.

This was something Yan Yi never expected.

Overnight, both fathers were gone.

"Xiao Yun, I don't have a father anymore." Yan Yi burst into tears.

Yan Yi did not return to the Yan Family Escort Agency. She followed Zhou Ping back and went to find He Yunqing. Apart from Uncle Lame and the head of the Yan Family, He Yunqing was the person closest to her.

Although the head of the Yan family is still alive, Yan Yi doesn't want to see him.

"Alas." He Yunqing didn't know how to comfort Yan Yi. He could only pat her to let her fall asleep.

Zhou Ping sat on the bed, his perception spread out. He could feel how much pain Yan Yi was in.

However, recalling what happened tonight, Zhou Ping reviewed it countless times. No matter what he did, Uncle Lame would have a hard time surviving.

"He is still too weak. The opponent is a first-grade warrior. I dare not help." Zhou Ping thought to himself that he was incompetent.

Although Zhou Ping also knew that even if he took action, his secret might be exposed and he might not be able to deal with Suzaku.

"The world is getting more and more chaotic. It's not enough to just hide here. We must improve our cultivation quickly!"

Zhou Ping revealed part of his cultivation to Wang Cheng in order to reduce trouble.

With the cultivation of two eighth-grade masters and the ghost bride, they can stop many villains from coveting the mother and daughter of the He family.

"It's time to improve my strength. If I get the secret of Li Jin's speed, my strength will definitely reach a higher level."
