Why are all of us who transmigrated at the same time demons?

Then at 5 o'clock, they began practicing martial arts, and at 6:30 they enjoyed a lavish dinner prepared by the chef with the Li family.

After dinner, I chatted with the Li brothers for a while and took a walk. Then I continued my practice at eight o'clock and finished at eleven o'clock. I went to bed on time at twelve o'clock.

With his improved martial arts and medical skills, Loran only needed five hours to meet his rest requirements, and he even specially learned a set of sleeping techniques for this purpose.

Lorraine's self-discipline is almost frightening. The Li brothers no longer say "My son/nephew has extraordinary talent," and everyone in the Li family tacitly agrees. With such talent and such perseverance, what can't he accomplish?

In fact, in his previous life, Loran was not a very self-disciplined person; he often worked sporadically, sometimes for two days and sometimes for three.

However, his period of seclusion in the void truly tempered his will. Facing the endless darkness and silence of the void, one would definitely go mad if their will was not strong enough.

Moreover, Lorraine is very satisfied with this new life. He has now become accustomed to a disciplined lifestyle and has even begun to enjoy it.

Watching yourself gradually become more fulfilled day by day brings a unique sense of pleasure.

Loran studied and honed his skills, eventually advancing to the third rank a year later.

The little cow's rocket-like advancement astonished everyone in the Li family—a third-rank official! Li Chunfeng, the founder of the Li family's foundation, was only a fourth-rank official.

A fourth-rank expert is already qualified to establish a sect, and can be considered a top expert in Jiangcheng.

There are no officials of the third rank in Jiangcheng on the surface, but who knows about them secretly.

The Li brothers issued a gag order to any members of the Li family who knew the information, stating that anyone who leaked the secret would have their legs broken and be expelled from the Li family without any room for negotiation.

The Li brothers, seasoned by experience and worldly wisdom, knew that a third-rank official was not enough to act arrogantly in the Eastern Lands.

The Eastern Lands have no shortage of experts of the third rank or above, and there are even legends of celestial beings of great power in the capital.

If word gets out that one's own nephews and nieces have made such rapid progress in their cultivation, and some old monsters outside who are stuck in their cultivation levels find out, they might very well harbor ill intentions.

Moreover, can you guarantee that there aren't any hidden third-rank experts in Jiangcheng? In the eyes of the Li brothers, Luo Lan was still too young, and they worried that he wouldn't be able to withstand the machinations of those old fogies.

Loran then prepared to eliminate a hidden danger for the Li family, which was to send Ye Xian's three masters to heaven.

Although in Ye Xian's memory, these three old men looked like reclusive masters, they were just taking advantage of Ye Xian's naivety.

During this time, Loran did not stop investigating the background of these three people.

First of all, this Xiong Fengshan, although he usually calls himself a miracle doctor who saves the world, in reality he has medical skills but no medical ethics.

Intentionally accepting large sums of money from patients, only treating the rich, and belittling his peers are secondary issues. What he really gained was his comprehensive and profound medical skills.

Besides his own exceptional talent, he also relied on cunning and force to seize wealth.

He inherited the expertise of his master's school in internal medicine and gynecology, but many of the other medical skills were obtained through coercion and enticement, leaving him with a considerable amount of blood debt.

Because of these actions, he offended almost everyone in the Eastern medical community, and in the end, he was defeated by a celestial being.

Taking advantage of the opportunity to see a doctor and his handsome face, which was well-preserved by "Eternal Spring Kung Fu," he seduced the granddaughter of this celestial being, attempting to have an affair with a young woman. As a result, the celestial being issued a kill order against him.

His colleagues in the medical field had long been fed up with him, and those he had built up in his early years were unwilling to offend the gods and men for his sake. Therefore, he had no choice but to go into seclusion in the mountains to avoid being hunted down.

This old man's strength is average, only at the fourth rank of martial arts. He cultivates the "Eternal Spring Skill," which focuses on health preservation, and his combat power lies entirely in his poison techniques.

Li Dalu, this "peerless" assassin, is rumored to have offended the Dragon King of the Dragon King's Palace and had to go into seclusion. Good heavens! He's run into the protagonist's hands.

In Ye Xian's memory, this second master walked with a limp, and every night he would suffer excruciating pain all over his body. He had obviously been severely punished by that Dragon King and did not know that he had not yet reached the second rank in martial arts.

The notorious detective Liu Qianguan was reportedly dismissed from the police force and wanted for stealing a national treasure. Ye Xian remembered that this third master had prosthetics for both his left and right legs, so he wasn't much better off than Li Dalu.

The three of them gathered together simply to keep each other warm. Liu Qianguan and Li Dalu needed Xiong Fengshan's medical skills to heal their injuries, while Xiong Fengshan needed their martial arts protection; they weren't exactly united.

Considering that these three old men were always a threat to the Li family, and feeling that she had enough strength after advancing to the third rank, Loran decided to eliminate these three hidden dangers and, incidentally, loot the gold coins from them.

He didn't quite believe that these three selfish old men would teach Ye Xian their most treasured secrets; they must still have a lot left over.

In Loran's view, Ye Xian was actually the tentacles that these three old guys, unwilling to be idle, were reaching out from the mountain into the real world, preparing to test the reaction within the circle to their return.

If Ye Xian can thrive outside, it means that the outside world is no longer so hostile towards them. They can take this opportunity to leave the mountains. Do they really think that these three, who are used to wealth and luxury, would enjoy the impoverished life in the mountains?

If Ye Xian dies, it proves that it is not yet time for the three of them to emerge from the mountain, so they will find another place to continue hiding.

Therefore, Ye Xian was their guiding light. As instructed, Ye Xian would go back to visit them once every two years.

However, Ye Xian was killed by Luo Lan not long after leaving the mountain, and did not go back to see him as instructed.

Therefore, these three old guys have probably moved to a new location long ago. The reason why Loran was able to find their new location is thanks to a new "protagonist".

Weren't the four major families of Jiangcheng all associated with certain urban fantasy or "crazy" storylines?

On the Li family's side, a divine doctor descended the mountain and was fed a demonic fetus by Luo Lan; on the Gu family's side, Long Aotian was sent away by Luo Lan with a magic bullet; on the Shen family's side, there was a domineering president and a naive girl running away with a child, and the domineering president Shen Xiucheng was directly crippled by Luo Lan. The Shen family was severely damaged by the ruthless Li family.

Now only the real and fake young masters of the Liu family remain, and this Liu family happens to be related to Liu Qianguan, one of the three elders.

Luo Lan also learned unintentionally through Hua Zizai that the current head of the Liu family, Liu Yanyun, was actually the illegitimate son of the old man Liu Qianguan.

The former head of the Liu family was Liu Qianguan's distant cousin, but the relationship was actually quite distant. Therefore, the Liu family in Jiangcheng was not implicated because of Liu Qianguan's affairs.

But I don't know why the former head of the family was cheated on by Liu Qianguan. Maybe the Detective Chasing the Wind is just as fast as the wind when he's chasing his cousin's wife.

This Liu Yanyun family head knew about his background, so he had been secretly in contact with Liu Qianguan Laodeng.

The procurement of supplies for Liu Qianguan Laodeng on the mountain was also handled by this illegitimate son, who was unknown to outsiders.

This should have been a secret. Loran didn't have much contact with the Liu family, and he wouldn't have bothered to eavesdrop on the Liu family head's thoughts.

But as everyone knows, the protagonists in urban fantasy novels like to go crazy in front of outsiders, dragging a bunch of passersby into it.

Luo Lan stumbled upon the two young masters, one real and one fake, acting crazy in front of the Liu Group headquarters on her way home from get off work one day. Luo Lan lingered there a little longer, just to watch the spectacle.

Then Liu Yanyun, the head of the Liu family, came to the rescue and then went mad along with them.

When Loran read novels in her previous life, she was actually very curious about what kind of parents would treat their adopted sons like treasures and their own sons like weeds.

Then, out of curiosity, he used the "Hehua Zizai" technique and accidentally overheard news about Liu Qianguan Laodeng.

This so-called fake son is not "fake" at all; he is Liu Yanyun's illegitimate son, whom he used to switch his wife's "real" son because he dislikes his current wife.

However, since Liu Qianguan Laodeng can't provide him with much support now, and his position as head of the family is not stable, he needs the help of his wife's family.

Then, driven by a series of unspeakable and utterly vile thoughts, he decided to switch his wife's son with his mistress's illegitimate child.

Because he himself was an illegitimate child, he loved this "fake" illegitimate child even more.

It was here that Loran learned of his relationship with Liu Qianguan Laodeng.

"It seems that Ye Xian's arrival in Jiangcheng after leaving the mountain wasn't solely due to her marriage agreement with the Wang family; the Liu family was also a factor," Luo Lan said, seemingly understanding.

Therefore, Luo Lan kept a close eye on the Liu family, found the supply procurement line that Liu Yanyun had prepared for Liu Qianguan Lao Deng, and followed the clues to find the new hiding place of these three Lao Dengs.

Lao Deng's secluded residence is nearly 300 kilometers from Jiangcheng, located on a mountain at the border of two provinces.

Once we found the place, things became much easier.

Loran is now preparing to go up the mountain and kill someone.

Chapter 33 Urban Scene: A Dark and Windy Night of Murder

The place where the three elders lived was called "Huangming Mountain," named after the legend that a phoenix once cried out on this mountain.

This mountain is not famous; it is just an ordinary mountain among the mountains of the East.

The economy here is not very developed, but there is a small town at the foot of the mountain.

Loran disguised himself as an ordinary person, blending into the town's residents. He had only been in town a short time when he spotted his target.

Xiong Fengshan, one of the three elders, may be almost sixty years old, but thanks to the nourishment of the "Eternal Spring Exercise," he looks no different from a man in his thirties.

When Lorraine found him, he was flirting with a girl who looked to be about seventeen or eighteen years old.

Old Deng had a handsome appearance; his hair was as black as sandalwood, his nose was high and strong, but the tip of his nose had a slightly hooked shape. He had a pair of beautifully shaped almond-shaped eyes, with the corners of his eyes slightly upturned, making him look charming and amorous.

High, sharp brow bones would normally give a more heroic look, but thick, messy eyebrows with sparse, broom-like ends ruin the original handsome appearance and instead add a touch of ferocity.

His lips naturally curve upwards as if he's smiling, as if he's always sneering and mocking.

With fair and delicate skin, a tall and slender figure, broad shoulders and a narrow waist, he has the physique of a male model. Coupled with a seasoned and worldly air, he exudes the mature and handsome charm of a roguish older man, no wonder he captivates naive young girls.

According to intelligence, among the three elders, Xiong Fengshan was known for his lecherous and womanizing ways, a veritable lustful fiend, especially fond of innocent young girls. However, he ultimately courted disaster by flirting with a celestial being.

It seems that this seclusion isn't a complete retreat; Old Deng still occasionally goes down the mountain to hunt for women.

No, this isn't just any old Deng, he's a perverted old Deng. We have to strike hard.

Xiong Fengshan took the girl's hand, preparing to go to a hotel in town to spend a wonderful night.

Although Xiong Fengshan had a gentle face, his eyes concealed indifference and contempt, but unfortunately, the girl, who was blinded by the old man's good looks, could not see it.

"If this kind of stuff were here before, even if it were stripped naked and placed in front of me, I, Xiong Fengshan, wouldn't give it a second glance." Old Xiong Fengshan lamented inwardly, "A tiger fallen into the plains can only eat this kind of bland soup to satisfy its hunger."

As Old Deng was leading the young girl toward the brothel, a charming young woman suddenly blocked his way.

The young woman wore a floral print dress, her figure graceful, the wide skirt unable to conceal her full, shapely hips. She had an oval face, exuding a gentle and generous air, and her short, wavy hair and alluring red lips added to her seductive charm.

The lecherous old man, Xiong Fengshan, suddenly felt a surge of desire. Could there really be such a gem in this small town?

People have a misconception that the legendary healer Xiong Fengshan only loves innocent young girls.

He never turned down any beautiful woman, whether she was a pure young girl or a charming young woman, he slept with her all the same.

Seeing the handsome older man she had recently met looking at her mother with such lustful eyes, the girl suddenly felt something inside her shatter.

But in no time, his appearance changed instantly, and he became a "gentleman".

The sudden turn of events left the girl speechless; she wondered if she had misread it. "I must have misread it," the girl thought, trying to excuse Old Deng.

But soon, Xiong Fengshan used his eloquence, which was adept at navigating high society, to amuse the young woman. Before long, she invited him to her home.

Nice! Xiong Fengshan was secretly pleased. Mother and daughter rice bowls, he was in for a treat today.

Back home, after closing the door, Xiong Fengshan was pondering whether to proceed slowly or unleash his beastly nature and force himself on her.

A large hand silently gripped Lao Deng's lower back, and terrifying Sun and Moon Profound Qi seeped into Lao Deng's body, precisely and quickly destroying Lao Deng's spine and spinal cord.

This was the last thought in Xiong Fengshan's mind before he fainted, a man well-versed in medicine.

"Thank you for your help, Ms. Xiao. This is a token of my gratitude, and I will not give it to you anonymously."

Loran grabbed Xiong Fengshan by the collar, thanked the young woman Xiao Lin, and handed her an anonymous bank card.

The other person, holding the girl who was terrified by the sudden event, took the card with tense body and said something cautiously.

"Xiaojuan and I didn't see anything today."

"A clever woman," Loran sighed. Without further ado, he grabbed Xiong Fengshan and slipped out of the room.

With Loran's superhuman hearing, he could still hear Xiao Lin crying and scolding his daughter after he left the house.

Amitabha Buddha, today I have saved another innocent girl from being harmed by a lecherous demon, and responded to the compassionate heart of a great mother who sacrificed herself to save her daughter. I have truly accumulated immeasurable merit.

Next, we'll have to give this old man a good beating, hehehe! Humanity, you are free to transform, come out! Let me see your power.

An hour later, Loran, having interrogated Xiong Fengshan and learned everything about him, used the scorching power of the sun to burn him to a pile of charcoal and then poured the ashes into the river near the town.

With ample intelligence, dealing with the two cripples, Li Dalu and Liu Qianguan, would be a piece of cake.

Night fell, and Phoenix Cry Mountain was quiet except for the chirping of insects. There were no large wild animals here, and even if there were, they had long been taken care of by the three old geezers on the mountain.

On a flat area halfway up the mountain, there were several low bungalows. These were the residences of Xiong Fengshan, Li Dalu, and Liu Qianguan, the three old bastards. Because Ye Xian had not returned for a long time and they could not find out Ye Xian's whereabouts from Liu Yanyun, they were afraid of revealing their location, so they chose to move, which is why their residence was so simple.

A small pavilion was built under a huge camphor tree, where Liu Qianguan and Li Dalu were drinking.

The wine was top-quality Shaoxing wine sent by Liu Yanyun. The two old men chatted and drank with a plate of peanuts, a plate of braised beef, and a plate of mixed shredded vegetables.

Compared to Xiong Fengshan, who is nearly sixty but still looks like a thirty-year-old, Liu Qianguan and Li Dalu show obvious signs of aging, especially since they have been tormented by injuries in recent years, and their hair has turned completely white.

"That shameless old bastard Xiong Fengshan still hasn't come back?" Li Dalu took a sip of wine, looking down at the path leading down the mountain with a bandit-like expression.

Liu Qianguan, dressed in a loose-fitting long gown, said calmly, "He's probably busy with some young girl again. You know how much he values ​​women."

"Pah! Shameless old man, all you do at your age is deceive young girls." Li Dalu spat down the mountain.

"He's a miracle doctor, so even at sixty, he still has a face that can seduce young girls. As for the two of us, we're so old we're practically dead, we can only live like this, stuck here on some godforsaken mountain." Liu Qianguan picked up a peanut, cracked it open, and said sarcastically.

"Damn it!" Li Dalu gulped down another glass of wine. "That old bastard definitely didn't treat us properly, otherwise, with his 'Gai Jiangnan' medical skills, how come he couldn't cure us after all these years?"

“He’s scared, Da Lu.” Liu Qianguan clinked glasses with Li Da Lu. “He’s afraid that after we’re completely cured, he’ll just kick us aside and abandon us.”

"Hey, that kid's right, I did have that plan." Li Dalu chuckled.

Suddenly, the two put down their wine glasses, quickly turned their heads, and looked in the direction outside the pavilion.

Where the downhill path connects to the platform, a young man in dark green hiking clothes stands silently watching them with a chilling smile, having stood there for an unknown amount of time.

Li Dalu extended his right hand and secretly grasped the hilt of the Black Killing Sword placed next to the stool.
