Pushing the Three Thousand Worlds

Chapter 206 Concealment ([-] words)

Where is that man now? "Yang Jun's eyes flashed with murderous intent, and he turned his head and asked.

"My lord, that man was just sent by the Sky Survey Division today to go to a place called Yeonsan City in Gyeongju to kill ghosts."

"Wang Wu and I still have time to catch up, so we can intercept and kill him halfway to ensure that no one notices it." Cheng Jin sneered.

The killing intent froze in Yang Jun's eyes.

"Idiot, how can you intercept and kill him on his way, he is a sky surveyor!"

"He's going to save the people of a place. If you intercept and kill him on the way there, so that Yanshan City can't get help, and tens of thousands or even all the people die, it won't make a big deal!"

"If it attracts the attention of the court..."

Yang Jun snorted coldly and said, "What you said about "the gods and ghosts don't know about it" really means that Ji Tianwei, Ji Tiansi's real food!"

Being reprimanded by Yang Jun, Cheng Jin's expression was stiff, with embarrassment appearing on his face.

"It's because the subordinates didn't think carefully, the young master scolded him rightly."

"You and Wang Wu can't attack him on the way, but you can attack him on the way back. At that time, his life will have nothing to do with the people of the place." Yang Jun's face was as dark as water, and he said coldly.

"After killing him, remember to bring that knife back to me."

"Yes."

Yang Jun hadn't been so mad that he sent someone to kill Li Qiu just because of a little jealousy in his heart.

Besides being jealous in his heart, killing Li Qiu was more because of the knife made by Ouyang Xuan.

That knife is very likely to be a peerless magic weapon, how could he let it go.

Even if it is not a peerless magic weapon, at least that knife is a magic weapon.

Even if Li Qiu took an ordinary piece of iron that day, Ouyang Xuan would take out his precious materials to forge a magic weapon or even a peerless magic weapon for Li Qiu in order to avenge his wife and children in martial arts in the future.

So that knife, at worst, is also a magical weapon.

Yang Jun originally wanted to ask Ouyang Xuan to let him forge a magical weapon for himself, but he refused.

But this is also good, this time he even saved the precious materials, just kill a small third-rank sky patroller, and he can get a magic weapon or even a peerless magic weapon.

His subordinates, Cheng Jin and Wang Wu, were both late-stage warriors in the Visceral Cultivation Stage, and killing a third-rank Sky Patrolman would definitely be easy.

He just needs to wait at home while Cheng Jin and Wang Wu bring him back the magic weapon.

There was a cruel sneer on Yang Jun's face. Now he somewhat expected that the idiot who took the initiative to join the Sky Survey Division would go smoothly to help Yeonsan City in Gyeongju this time.

Arrive smoothly, kill ghosts smoothly, and come back smoothly...

Because riding a horse would delay the speed of the rescue, Li Qiu did not ride a horse and galloped all the way to Yansan City, Gyeongju.

Before arriving at the foot of Yanshan City, he saw a group of officials waiting at the foot of the city.

Li Qiu was a little puzzled, how did they know that he would arrive at Yanshan City today.

A group of officials stood in front of the city gate, dressed in neat official uniforms and black hats, with bored and impatient expressions on their faces.

The soldiers on the city gate were always paying attention to the movement in the distance, and when they saw Li Qiu coming at the speed of a galloping horse, they hurriedly shouted to the officials below the city gate.

"My lords, the Sky Surveyor from the Sky Survey Division is here!"

"I'm coming!"

"It's finally here!"

Upon hearing this, a group of officials hurriedly adjusted their appearance, put on smiling faces, and waited for Li Qiu's arrival.

After a gust of wind, a very oppressive figure appeared in front of the officials.

When the officials saw Li Qiu, they knew that this must be the Sky Surveyor sent by the Sky Survey Division.

"Xiaoguan has seen adults."

All the officials said neatly, clapping their hands together.

Li Qiu frowned slightly, and took out the copper medal from his pocket.

"My name is Li Qiu. I am a third-rank sky surveyor sent by the Sky Survey Department. I was ordered to rescue Yanshan City in Qingzhou and help you kill ghosts. This is my bronze medal."

All the officials saw the bronze medal, and after knowing Li Qiu's name, they met Li Qiu again.

"I met Mr. Li."

Li Qiu nodded and asked with a frown.

"How did you know I'd be here today?"

Among the officials, an official stood up, cupped his hands and said to Li Qiu.

"Returning to Master Li, we didn't know you were here today. It was the city lord who told us to wait in front of the city gate every day from two days ago, waiting for your arrival to save our Yanshan City."

A clear look flashed across Li Qiu's face, it turned out that this was the case.

"My lord, please in the city, the city lord has already prepared a feast for you in the city lord's mansion."

The official bowed slightly and invited Li Qiu to enter the city.

"Presumably, your city lord is also preparing this banquet every day?"

Li Qiu's expression moved slightly, and he asked.

A look of embarrassment flashed across the official's face, and he wiped the sweat from his forehead.

"Yes."

"However, don't worry, my lord, the banquet for you, our city lord, changes every day, and the dishes are guaranteed to be fresh."

Li Qiu walked towards the city, the official followed him, and the rest of the officials followed behind him respectfully.

Li Qiu turned his head and asked.

"All the officials of Yanshan City are here?"

The official bowed slightly.

"Yes."

"Then who is handling the affairs in the city these days?"

The officer wiped the cold sweat from his brow.

"This one……"

"Those matters are not as important as your arrival, my lord."

"My lord, you are here to kill the ghosts and save the 10,000+ people in Yanshan City. Of course, we can't wait for you."

Li Qiu smiled and stopped talking.

Outside the City Lord's Mansion, Li Qiu noticed something was wrong.

The soldiers surrounded the city lord's mansion with three floors inside and three floors outside, and the defense was a bit too strict.

Killing the city lord will not cause any more yin energy. In the eyes of the ghosts, the city lord is no different from a beggar on the roadside. Killing a beggar is not much easier than killing the city lord.

Yin ghosts should not attack the city lord's mansion, what is the city lord of Yanshan City so afraid of?
After entering the city lord's mansion, Li Qiu met Zheng Ming, the city lord of Yanshan City, and Jiang Han, the general of Yanshan City.

Zheng Ming is short and fat with an ordinary appearance, while Jiang Han is tall with a simple and honest appearance.

"Your Majesty welcomes you."

Zheng Ming and Jiang Han cupped their hands.

Li Qiu glanced across Zheng Ming's face, and found that his complexion was pale, as if he was frightened.

Li Qiu waved his hands and asked everyone to stand up.

"My lord, please." Zheng Ming invited Li Qiu to sit at the head of the banquet.

Li Qiu was not polite either. After everyone was seated, the banquet began.

At the wine table, Li Qiu began to ask about the ghosts in Yanshan City.

"How long has this ghost in Yanshan City appeared?"

"My lord, it's been a few years." Zheng Ming replied.

"When it appeared a few years ago, what strength was it?"

Jiang Han took the words, and replied in a low voice.

"When that Yin ghost appeared a few years ago, it was only as strong as a warrior in the Tempering Skin Stage."

"In a few years, the strength has improved from the skin-hardening stage to the viscera-raising stage?!" Li Qiu frowned.

"Such a terrifying speed of strength improvement, I'm afraid it's not a sky ghost."

"For several years, you haven't been able to solve it?"

"Just let it grow from Yanshan City?"

Li Qiu frowned and asked.

"..." Zheng Ming wiped the cold sweat from his forehead.

"My lord... my lord... that ghost is too cunning, always hiding a part of its strength, and when we send the arresters and soldiers to kill it, it will reveal its true strength and kill them all." killed."

"After killing the people we sent, it will disappear for a while, and when we relax our vigilance, it will come out to kill again."

"One to two, its strength is..."

Zheng Ming stuttered and couldn't continue.

"After all, you still don't pay enough attention to it." Li Qiu sneered.

Zheng Ming and the others trembled, lowered their heads and dared not speak.

"When was the last time that ghost appeared to kill people?" Li Qiu asked instead.

He didn't have the heart to care about these things, he just wanted to kill the ghost as soon as possible to obtain the source power.

Zheng Ming lowered his head, panic flashed in his eyes, Jiang Han glanced at Zheng Ming, raised his head and answered.

"The last time was one month ago, in a village outside Yanshan City, the Yingui Slaughtering Village happened to be bumped into by my leader. I had a big fight with it, and both sides were hurt."

"After the Yin ghost was injured, it became more cautious, and after that, it slaughtered many people."

"I reckoned that I might no longer be the opponent of that ghost, so I suggested that the city lord ask for help from the Sky Surveyor, and I invited you here, my lord."

Li Qiu glanced over the two of them, and a strange light flashed in his eyes.

"I have basically understood the situation. After the banquet, you all started to search for the trace of the ghost."

"Tell me when you find it, and I will kill it."

"Yes Yes."

Zheng Ming and Jiang Han clasped their hands together.

After the banquet, Li Qiu was led by the servants of the City Lord's Mansion to a clean and comfortable house.

In the room, Li Qiu's eyes flickered.

He felt that Zheng Ming, the lord of Yanshan City, and Jiang Han, General Yangwu, had something to hide from him.

He asked when the Yin ghost appeared last time, Jiang Han said that the two should have discussed it long ago, and it was specially used to deal with him.

It might be difficult to hear the truth from the mouths of the two of them. Li Qiu was going to go out to the city to inquire about the ghost.

After all, there is no impenetrable wall in the world.

Moreover, it was an event as big as Yin Gui's last attack, and Zheng Ming and the two couldn't cover it up no matter how much they tried to cover it up.

Li Qiu quietly left the City Lord's Mansion, and after inquiring, came to a teahouse that was usually the busiest in Yanshan City.

After ordering a pot of tea, Li Qiu drank a couple of sips, and before he left his seat to inquire about Yin Gui, he realized something was wrong.

"Have you heard? The master sent by the imperial court to destroy that ghost has arrived in Yanshan City this morning."

"I heard that he is now living in the City Lord's Mansion."

"Hurry up and kill that ghost. I heard that many villages outside the city have been poisoned by that ghost. You may not know when it will attack the people in Yanshan City. We will all be in danger then." !."

The chatter of people in the teahouse fell into Li Qiu's ears, and he frowned.

The news that he came to Yanshan City was spread too fast, as if someone was deliberately spreading it.

"Did the City Lord's Mansion do it?
"Is it to appease the people?"

"Aren't Zheng Ming and the others afraid of scaring the snake?"

Li Qiu was puzzled.

The people in the teahouse continued.

"That ghost has already entered the city, right?"

"is it?"

"I heard that a month ago, that ghost attacked the City Lord's Mansion."

"What did that ghost attack the City Lord's Mansion?"

"I don't know this."

Li Qiu's eyes moved slightly.

Zheng Ming and Jiang Han really lied to him.

It was the City Lord's Mansion that the Yin Ghost attacked a month ago, not any village outside the city.

On the surface, it seemed that there was nothing to hide about the Yin ghost's attack on the City Lord's Mansion. There must be something Zheng Ming and Jiang Han didn't want him to know.

Li Qiu stood up and started looking for warriors in the teahouse.

There are some things that ordinary people cannot touch, and it is possible to know the truth of this matter only by asking the warriors.

Why did the Yin ghost attack the City Lord's Mansion?What are Zheng Ming and Jiang Han hiding?
Li Qiu searched for a while in the teahouse, and found a middle-aged warrior who was drinking tea.

"You are a local, and I want to ask you something."

Li Qiu was in a hurry, without being polite, he let out a little power and asked straight to the point.

The middle-aged warrior is the owner of a small martial arts gym in Yanshan City, and has the strength of the early bone-building period.

Hearing what Li Qiu said, he raised his head impatiently and was just about to wave his hand to drive away Li Qiu, when he suddenly felt a burst of real power oppressing him.

The middle-aged warrior's heart trembled, and his face changed drastically. He knew that although Li Qiu looked young, his strength might far exceed him, and he was a powerful warrior that he couldn't afford to provoke.

"Please...please sit down."

The middle-aged warrior looked terrified, he stuttered and asked Li Qiu to sit down.

Li Qiu pushed aside the stool and sat down.

The middle-aged warrior looked anxious.

"You... If you want to know anything, just ask, and I will tell you everything."

"I heard that there is a ghost in Yan'an City?"

"Yes, it is."

"That ghost attacked the City Lord's Mansion a month ago?"

"Yes." A look of doubt flashed in the eyes of the middle-aged warrior, and he asked cautiously.

"You...you are the sky surveyor sent by the imperial court to deal with this ghost, right?"

Li Qiu's eyes moved slightly, but he didn't speak.

"I'm afraid your strength is far superior to mine. You are a martial artist in the visceral cultivation stage."

"And in Yanshan City, there is only one martial artist in the visceral cultivation period, and that is Jiang Han, General Yangwu."

"I've seen Jiang Han from afar, and he doesn't look like you."

"Our Yanshan City is not a big city, and there are very few warriors as powerful as you passing by."

"And I just heard that we have a visceral cultivator who is stronger than Jiang Han in Yanshan City today..."

The middle-aged martial artist is a little proud to say his own speculation.

Li Qiu's face remained calm, and he said coldly.

"Sometimes, knowing too much is not a good thing!"

The middle-aged warrior's expression froze, and he dared not speak any more.

"I ask, you answer, stop talking nonsense!"

"Yes." The middle-aged warrior replied silently.

"Do you know why that Yin ghost attacked the City Lord's Mansion?"

"I heard that the ghost has enmity with the city lord and General Yangwu." The middle-aged warrior replied.

"Animation?" Li Qiu was not surprised by this answer, he had already guessed about it.

"What kind of hatred?"

"I heard that the yin ghost's husband and son were killed by the city lords Zheng Ming and Jiang Han. After she died, she became a sky yin ghost and wanted to kill them both for revenge."

"In the past, I was too weak to dare to enter the city, and I kept killing people outside the city to absorb Yin Qi to improve my strength. Until a month ago, she felt that her strength was almost ready for revenge, so she sneaked into Yanshan City and attacked the city lord's mansion. Both Jiang Han and Jiang Han were hurt..."

Li Qiu was a little surprised.

"Is this ghost in Yanshan City a woman?"
