Whose heretical cultivator relies on a rich woman to attain enlightenment?

I slumped down on the ground, exhausted.

His chest heaved as he felt the intense fatigue that Lu Cheng had experienced after the battle. His body was extremely weak, with at least five or six wounds, but fortunately, he had avoided vital organs in all of them.

Even a starved camel is bigger than a horse. Even a second-stage cultivator who has only recently condensed his spiritual energy is still a second-stage cultivator. Whether it's the reserves of spiritual energy, the strength of his physical body, or the variety of techniques he can come up with, he is still very powerful. Strictly speaking, techniques like magic and Taoist arts can only be cultivated with the foundation building as a prerequisite.

Lu Cheng is probably the only one in the entire world who starts studying Dao techniques at the initial stage of cultivation.

"Thank goodness, if it weren't for Hanguang..."

He gave a wry smile.

The golden talisman on his back fell to the ground. Not only did the golden light disappear, but the bloodstains also dried completely, merging with the rainwater as they fell to the ground.

The sky was still filled with lightning and thunder, and the torrential rain washed away all the filth on the ground. Without rest, it was not hard to tell by the moonlight that they were at least several miles away from the city. Now he was unsure whether there were still demons here, and his sea of ​​consciousness could not be opened at all due to the influence of the rain.

"It has to be as thorough as possible."

A sense of foreboding flashed through his mind, and he quickly picked up everything on the ground, including the flying sword, the ghost mask that had fallen to the ground and was emitting light, and the small black cloth bag tied to Lianxuzi's waist. He even took the Five Directions Soul-Summoning Flag and the Soul-Guiding Lamp from the ghost cultivator.

The search was incredibly fast, a feat that was undoubtedly one of his most familiar skills. But just as Lu Cheng was about to run away, he suddenly remembered something.

This is a very important thing.

"The mastermind behind it all."

That's why he was used as bait.

She can absorb other people's spiritual roots and take away their memories in order to find the real culprit. However, others are unaware of this. When she goes home to give her statement, she only needs to say that the other person told her that.

Anyway, the dead don't speak.

Placing his palms on the lower abdomens of the two corpses, the demonic energy naturally flowed into their bodies through acupoints and meridians, indicating that both of them had received that special power.

The demonic filth surged into their bodies to replenish them, but the amount was not much, after all, neither of them was of a high cultivation level. Countless memories, big and small, reappeared in their minds. They tried to search through them, and their minds were filled with various methods of corpse refining and memories of how he had lured ordinary people in Jingnan.

He continued searching deep into his memories, and finally saw a glimmer of light.

"Ji Xiaoxiao is already an eighth-level expert. This time she is in seclusion trying to glimpse the Heavenly Dao. You must find a way to interrupt her, otherwise, with that woman's talent, she may really have a chance to become the number one person in the world today."

The sound was very faint, which undoubtedly made Lu Cheng try his best to search for it. Unfortunately, the scene was very chaotic, and Lianxuzi should have only heard the conversation but did not see the real person.

The sound was very jumbled, sounding like an old cassette tape from the last century, intermittent and broken.

"...Jingnan is indeed impregnable, with several experts stationed there."

"If we launch a full-scale attack, Da Yue will not stand idly by. Moreover, if we launch a war, Ji Xiao Da can calm down and come out of seclusion on his own initiative. In the end, it will all be for naught."

"Although that woman is formidable, her subordinates are a bunch of good-for-nothings. I'll find a way to get them all out of here..."

"The demon race is a good choice. They have an old feud with Da Yue, and we can easily incite a war between them with a little manipulation. Have you forgotten about that fox?"

"The demonic energy emanating from her can assimilate people, and her cultivation method is extremely unique."

"Why don't you swindle more benefits from her, and then have those lackeys spread the evil spirits? That way, it will be a conflict between the demon race and Jingnan..."

The sound grew louder and the light became more and more obvious.

Lu Cheng was deeply shocked. He had talked with his senior sister several times and had also dealt with his colleagues in the Demon Suppression Division. He knew that the Jingnan demon case was an operation targeting his senior sister.

The purpose was to interrupt her comprehension process and cause her to suffer a backlash from the Heavenly Dao. Judging from the voice, it is clear that the mastermind behind this is a member of the Demon Suppression Division.

They are what we call our own people.

Furthermore, this person must hold a high position and have considerable power and influence within the entire Demon Suppression Division; otherwise, how could they mobilize members of the Demon Suppression Division?

And this conversation suddenly reminded Lu Cheng of something that everyone had forgotten.

Jingnan does not only border the demon race.

It is a border area between multiple countries.

Although the demon race and Dayue had territorial disputes a thousand years ago, they have been at peace for a full century. It is true that Dayue took Jingnan from the demon race, but it is also true that Dayue has been developing Jingnan on a large scale.

During peacetime, ordinary people from both sides had frequent interactions. Even when Lu Cheng was young, he had seen many merchants from the demon realm. However, the relationship between the two sides has gradually deteriorated recently, especially since this demonic energy, which can assimilate the minds of others, is exclusive to the demon race.

Therefore, the demon race is the prime suspect.

Countless questions flashed through his mind. He stood there dumbfounded, letting the torrential rain beat down on his body. At this moment, Lu Cheng had too many questions weighing on his mind.

Who is the mole within the Demon Suppression Bureau?

Who is the fox he's talking about?

After Jingnan and the demon race broke up and even fought a war, who would benefit from it?

Wait, a ghost cultivator?

Suddenly looking at the limp corpse beside him, Lu Cheng realized that he had been summoned to the outskirts of the city by someone. Could this matter be related to ghost cultivators?

and also!

"Young master~"

A frivolous voice sent chills down the boy's spine!

The ghostly commotion made him immediately swing his sword to the side, but unexpectedly, what caught his sword was...

"You're quite strong."

Gently pinch the blade between your thumb and forefinger.

"It seems my bewitching aura is quite pleasing to you, young master. You can savor even a tiny bit for almost half an hour."

"However, no wonder the demonic energy I had outside was decreasing. It turns out it all entered your body and wasn't assimilated. This physique is quite pleasing. No wonder you were chosen by Fairy Ji."

"Young master, since our meeting is fate, why don't you..."

She reached out and put her hand on the boy's shoulder. In the darkness, he couldn't even see the woman's face clearly. His instinct was to shake her off, but the light touch made him completely unable to resist.

A smug look appeared on her alluring face. She had originally planned to take advantage of the rainy night to enter the city, but she didn't expect to have an unexpected gain halfway there. Her nose twitched a few times, and she keenly discovered that Lu Cheng had Ji Xiaoxiao's scent on him. He must be the person that Ji Xiaoxiao had saved, as they had said.

but.

"Don't be so arrogant, you vixen!"

wow-

The thunderclouds overhead were split in two in an instant, leaving the sky cloudless and even the rain evaporated. The two people standing there looked up.

To the boy's astonishment, the sword energy actually slashed down from dozens of miles away!
