I have seen dragons

Chapter 11 A Trivial Matter

The man in black passed away peacefully.

……

He actually struggled the moment the sword light hit him.

He quickly condensed a black wind in front of his chest, which seemed to carry countless locusts, frantically eroding Yue Wen's divine sense that controlled the flying sword, trying to break the flying sword out of Yue Wen's control.

As long as Yue Wen's divine sense is unstable, he can break it; the flying sword goes out of control, and the sword light dissipates on its own.

To his astonishment, this young man who had suddenly appeared possessed a cultivation level a hundred times higher than that of the disciple from the immortal sect! This man's true energy was solid and his divine sense was profound.

His spirit and energy were flawless!
This is entirely due to the difference in cultivation techniques. To be able to crush the disciples of Linjiang Sect, could it be that they come from a higher-ranking immortal sect?
The man in black thought of those famous top sects in the human world. He couldn't understand why he would attract the attention of such a powerful figure.

And this kind of person actually pretended to be a corpse for half a day in order to ambush me!

Do you really want me dead?

Then I'll kill him for you.

The True Dragon Dao Technique was activated at high speed, and the vast and powerful true essence poured in wave after wave. In the blink of an eye, the flying sword pierced through the chest of the man in black without any sense of reason.

puff--

A cloud of blood mist exploded behind the man in black.

Like those lesser demons from last night, he had no legal protection. The difference was that those lesser demons dared not do evil, so Yue Wen couldn't bring himself to kill them.

He felt absolutely no psychological pressure when facing this evil practitioner who committed numerous wicked acts.

A sword pierced his heart, and the evil cultivator fell to the ground, his eyes filled with resentment, muttering, "I've never seen you before, who sent you here..."

Yue Wen stood on the hillside and calmly replied, "I am the manager of the Yue Clan Cultivation Agency. The cemetery in the east of the city hired me to cleanse the evil spirits for a thousand yuan."

"One thousand...one thousand yuan..." The man in black's eyes bulged, blood gushing from his mouth, his face filled with disbelief: "One thousand yuan...you...I..."

Before he could finish speaking, the man in black had already lost his life.

Yue Wen waited for a while, and seeing that he hadn't moved, he stepped forward to see his face clearly.

He was a middle-aged man with a pale complexion and severely sunken skin, looking like he was skin and bones.

If Yue Wen had encountered this person on the street, he might have mistaken him for a frail, sickly patient, never suspecting that he was a ruthless, evil cultivator. But in this era, there are many such people hiding in the streets and alleys of the city.

Although there is no reward for killing someone to appease evil spirits, it is not entirely without gain.

After confirming the other party's death status again, Yue Wen stepped forward and began to search. These kinds of evil cultivators usually wander around, and they usually carry any valuables with them.

While Qi Dian was still unconscious, whatever he touched belonged to him alone.

On the ground lay a long, empty tube used for holding fishing rods, presumably used to store the large banner that had been stuck there. This heretical cultivator must not have had a storage artifact, which is why he rolled up the banner and put it into the fishing rod bag as a disguise.

This makes body searches much easier.

Although the large banner looked nice, Yue Wen didn't dare to take it.

This thing is clearly a heretical magical artifact, its composition unknown. Whether used for personal purposes or sold, it's a grave violation of the law. He, a heretical cultivator, has no such taboos, but Yue Wen is a respectable man with a family and a career; he can't do such a thing.

He first took a pouch from the man in black's waist, opened it, and found a wad of cash inside, about forty or fifty thousand.

"Thank you, boss." Yue Wen said his thanks and unceremoniously stuffed the cash into his pocket.

He then took out the man in black's phone from his pocket and saw that someone was sending him messages, but Yue Wen didn't know the unlock password and couldn't see any more information.

This is not something that can be done with supernatural powers; it requires technology.

Let's leave that to the Super Management Bureau to clean up later.

Then he pulled out half of a black and gold skull from the man's chest. It looked finely crafted, with an antique color and fine, scale-like patterns all over it. It didn't seem to be a heretical artifact; he wondered what kind of treasure it was.

Although Yue Wen didn't know what the thing was used for, he could tell from the appearance of the skeleton's material that it was Black Water Dragon Pattern Gold, a very precious type of celestial metal.

"Take it and have it tested." Yue Wen thought for a moment, then put away the half of the black gold skull.

After searching high and low again, I found nothing more.

For a rogue cultivator, having one or two magical artifacts is already considered wealthy, and Yue Wen didn't mind having too many. However, after doing all this, he still didn't rush to rescue Qi Dian.

Instead, they came to the body of "Zhang Wei".

……

The leader of the "Meow Meow Cult" is also looking for him, as is the boss behind this evil cultivator. Zhang Wei, who died unexpectedly, was just an employee of an antique shop with no cultivation.

why?
The man in black just revealed that Zhang Wei once stole something from that antique shop, which should be related to that item.

Since all these people are looking for his body, this item is most likely hidden on his person.

Since there's an opportunity now, it won't hurt to see what it is.

Zhang Wei had many broken bones, suggesting he had been in a severe car accident. Yue Wen briefly examined him but found nothing.

The bodies of these people who died unexpectedly were definitely searched before burial. Their personal belongings were sealed away, awaiting claim by their families.

Since his body has been buried, there's obviously nothing on the surface, which is not surprising.

Those people still came looking for his body, most likely because they had already used various methods to examine his sealed personal belongings.

But to no avail.

But Zhang Wei is just an ordinary person; he can't use storage artifacts. If he didn't lose it outside, where would he hide it deepest?
Instead of racking his brains, Yue Wen directly activated the spirit-detecting needle.

Because Zhang Wei is an ordinary person, and his entire being is made of ordinary things, if there is anything with spiritual energy fluctuations, it should be the treasure they are looking for, leaving no room for interference. In this situation, the spirit-detecting needle is just right for finding treasure.

The spirit needle disc spun rapidly twice before pointing directly at Zhang Wei's head.

"In his head?" Yue Wen stared intently. "No, in his hair!"

He reached out and pulled hard, and sure enough, he tore off a section of Zhang Wei's middle-parted hair. It turned out to be a wig that was tightly bound!
After the wig was pulled off, a kiwi-like head with sparse hair follicles was revealed. Between the wig and the scalp, a thin piece of purple cloth fell out.

Is it possible that Zhang Wei is already losing his hair at such a young age?

My life is truly miserable.

Yue Wen picked up the cloth with a sigh. He noticed that it had tears on all four sides, and the shapes were irregular, as if it had been torn from somewhere. The texture felt like sheepskin. The front was purple-gold, and the back was black; both sides were blank. In the lower left corner of the purple-gold side, a complex and strange emblem was engraved.

Countless long, spitting snakes coiled around a fanged tiger, seemingly fighting yet also merging, forming a circular emblem.

The moment Yue Wen saw the emblem, his eyes narrowed and his gaze was greatly shaken!

He had seen this emblem before...

And I will never forget it.

It turns out that the items this person stole were related to that place, no wonder so many people coveted them.

Yue Wen didn't dare to look at it for long. He quickly put the silk in his pocket, intending to study it carefully when he got back. Then he put the wig back on him as well.

Pretend nothing happened.

……

After doing all this, he leisurely came to Qi Dian's side, channeled his true energy into his fingertips, and removed the four steel needles from Qi Dian's body.

"what!"

As the steel needle left his body, Qi Dian, who had been sealed away, immediately awoke. He cried out in surprise and sat up straight.

In a daze, he saw Yue Wen in front of him and immediately said, "Yue Wen? Let's go! You go find the Super Management Bureau, I'll cover the rear! This evil cultivator is most likely a disciple of the Flame Ghost Hall, his cultivation is powerful and unmatched!"

"Brother Qi, don't panic." Yue Wen patted his shoulder reassuringly twice. "I've already killed that evil cultivator."

"You?" Qi Dian was stunned, seemingly incredulous. "You killed him?"

"Look." Yue Wen pointed to the corpse on the hilltop. Although it was dark, Qi Dian's eyesight was fine with the help of his cultivation, and he saw the evil cultivator's dead state at a glance.

Qi Dian's eyes were full of surprise.

First of all, how could Yue Wen actually do that?

Even though he was a minor realm higher than him, Qi Dian didn't think his combat strength could surpass his own.

After all, he was just a rogue cultivator.

The stereotype of independent cultivators is that they lack cultivation techniques, supernatural abilities, and magical artifacts... and this is indeed true when we break free from the stereotype.

Secondly, how could he be willing to do it?
Grandpa Huang said that it only cost him a thousand yuan to invite Yue Wen. You can kill the lantern monster, but is killing evil cultivators your job?

Why would you risk your life for a thousand dollars?
After a moment of stunned silence, Qi Dian asked, "How did you do that?"

"Just..." Yue Wen made a sword-drawing gesture, "Just this once."

He didn't want to reveal that he knew anything about "Zhang Wei," so he simplified the process to say that he saw Qi Dian in trouble, rushed over, and killed the evil cultivator in a flash.

"It's that simple?" Qi Dian's expression was slightly dazed, his shock beyond words.

"It's just a heretical cultivator at the Harmony Realm, how difficult could it be?" Yue Wen shrugged, his expression nonchalant. "It's just a piece of cake."
