Her expression remained unchanged, and she used her fingers as swords, like the moonlight pouring down, the silver light like water gathering into a three-inch long sword intent.
Zheng——
The silver-white sword intent trembled slightly, and then it seemed to make a loud sound, with a sharp and unstoppable edge, it instantly rushed out dozens of meters and slashed towards the black palm!
puff-
As soon as the silvery-white light entered the coldness, it seemed to be slowed down by a sticky and wet existence. Keqing lightly stroked from top to bottom with her index finger.
"break!"
Along with a flash of playful light, the sword intent suddenly trembled and accelerated suddenly!
In an instant
The light burst out brightly, directly splitting the attack in front of him.
It was like a punctured balloon, or like a sudden attack from a tidal wave, and the mist dissipated in just a moment.
However, what greeted Keqing was not a human figure, but a dozen talismans flying towards her like streams of light.
"Boom——"
A violent blaze broke out, waves of fire splashed, and surging air waves spread in all directions from the center of the explosion, and were about to affect the entire yard, forming a huge firework.
However, the heat wave suddenly stopped while spreading, as if time had stood still.
Suddenly, white fog covered the entire courtyard. Under the frost, all the heat waves were frozen and turned into pieces of cold fog.
Crunchy——
The ice shards shattered and scattered all over the ground, revealing a figure holding a sword inside.
"He actually ran away like that?"
Keqing was slightly surprised and looked at the invisible figure in the courtyard.
I thought this guy wanted to fight with me, but who could have known that he had already made up his mind to escape, and everything before the fight was just to delay time to prepare for the escape.
"As expected of a little mouse, you run really fast. But are you sure you will run to your lair?"
Yuehu slowly appeared.
"There is a high chance. After all, I have fought him before, and he should know my strength. He must have some plans and want to get rid of me. In order to solve this problem, he will definitely look for backup."
Keqing said firmly, and she set her gaze on a corner that was easily overlooked.
"My Lord City Lord, what do you think?"
As she finished speaking, a familiar figure walked out. The moonlight shone through the gaps between the leaves, casting a complicated look on his face.
And this person is none other than the city lord of Qingcang City, Zhu Qian.
"I think you should be able to tell who the figure just now is. You should be very familiar with him since you often meet him face to face."
It turned out that before Keqing left the City Lord's Mansion, she had whispered some speculations to Zhu Qian, such as the fact that her second son was an evil cultivator.
When Zhu Qian received the message, he was a little skeptical at first. After all, no one would start to doubt their relatives just because of such a statement, let alone an outsider who had a conflict with his son not long ago.
So Zhu Qian didn't take it seriously at first.
However, some things will not be noticed if they are not mentioned, but once a seed of doubt is planted, the heart will no longer be indifferent as before.
That's why this scene happened. Zhu Qian came here an hour ago. After all, he also wanted to see what this alchemy master wanted to do and why he thought his son was an evil cultivator.
Facing Keqing's firm words, Zhu Qian's face looked very ugly.
He looked at Keqing with a slightly probing look in his eyes.
"Did you call me just to show me this? Although I don't know what you want to do, aren't you worried that I will arrest you? After all, even if he is an evil cultivator, he is still my son. Aren't you worried that I will protect him?"
"Shelter? Well, what the city lord said does have some possibilities, but don't you want the young city lord to wake up?"
Keqing actually thought about it.
"Oh? You think you can cure my son. To be honest, I have a master of elixirs in Qingcang City, but he couldn't solve my son's problem. How can I know you can solve it?"
"Indeed, I cannot make any rash conclusions without seeing the Young City Lord's situation. But if the City Lord is protecting your second son, then the Young City Lord will definitely not wake up."
Seeing Zhu Qian's slightly stunned expression, Keqing looked over and said in a firm tone.
"After all, there is such an evil cultivator who wants to assassinate the young city lord, and he is a relative of the young city lord and has the protection of the city lord. No matter how much treatment he receives, it will be in vain, right?"
"How……"
"How is that possible? Is that what the city lord wants to say?"
Seeing her mouth opening subconsciously, Keqing interrupted.
"Did you really not notice it? Why did your second son attack me as soon as we met? Why did he come to my courtyard in the middle of the night to attack me? Why do you think it was?"
Zhu Qian suddenly fell silent.
"So... you also noticed something was wrong, right? If so, doesn't the city lord want to know the truth? Why would he attack his own brother when he is clearly a relative? Why did he try to stop him in every possible way?"
"This is all just your guess..."
"My Lord City Lord thinks it is just speculation. Keqing cannot wake up those who are stubborn and rebellious. After all, the body possessed by the evil cultivator is not my relative."
Keqing sighed, but Zhu Qian suddenly raised his head, looking at Keqing with hooked eyes, and his cold voice carried a hint of shock and a little panic.
"What did you say!?"
"I say, honorable Lord City Lord~ You can't have failed to see that your son is no longer the original one~"
Yuehu on the side teased with a gloating look on his face.
"You are the mayor of Qingcang City, but you didn't even know your own son had been replaced, and you still need my...master to find out."
Yue Hu paused and muttered to herself, although she didn't realize it, it didn't stop her from sneering and ridiculing. Who asked the city lord to question her over and over again with a look of disbelief, and his expression was really uncomfortable to watch.
"Tsk, I don't know how this incarnation was cultivated."
Before she finished speaking, a pressure came over her, as if to teach her a lesson. However, who are Keqing and Yuehu? One is a
The genius who has ascended to Godhood is mainly good at fighting enemies of higher levels and has strong power; while the other is a powerful cultivator who has refined into Void, so it is common for him to fight against many enemies at once.
How could such pressure have any effect on them now?
Keqing's expression was calm, while Yuehu was smiling nonchalantly, watching Zhu Qian vent his pressure with a poker face, as if she were looking at a clown.
"I'm sorry...I lost my temper."
His face darkened, and he quickly realized something. He quickly withdrew his pressure and apologized, returning to his steady and honest appearance.
"What you said was really unbelievable. It really sounded like nonsense. I couldn't believe it for a moment, so..."
"Please tell me if there is any evidence that can prove that my son has been possessed. Once the truth is confirmed, this city lord will certainly present a great gift to express his apology."
Seeing the city lord's sincere attitude, Keqing thought about it.
"It's up to the city lord to believe it or not, but I think I'm not wrong. Your second son is probably not the original soul."
"As for the evidence, isn't it that he was practicing evil? I can't tell you the specific evidence, but you should have noticed that your son's personality had changed a little for a while, like his tastes and style had changed slightly from before, the people he used to hate no longer hated him, and the people he used to like became colder to him. There are traces of all this, right?"
"After all, no matter how good the disguise is, it can't be perfect. There may be no traces when the body is first possessed, but over time, something has subtly changed, right? Some changes will be less noticeable over time, right?"
Hearing Keqing say this, Zhu Qian's face changed slightly, and he then thought of some of the things that were a little puzzling before.
For example, the eldest son and the second son suddenly become estranged from each other over a period of time, or the relationship between the second son and the third daughter suddenly becomes conflicting and they look down on each other.
It turns out that there are traces to all this... but he has always ignored it and just thought that people change...
It turns out that when he was so young, he was no longer his biological son?
But it was he who had been with her for hundreds of years. In comparison, those decades and hundreds of years seemed small and insignificant.
Zhu Qian's face was dull, and there was a hint of weirdness and indescribable feeling in his shock.
"Can……"
He wanted to say something else, but was interrupted by Yuehu.
"Okay, there's nothing more to say. If I were to continue, that guy would run away. If you really want to know, why not follow him and see it with your own eyes?"
"Why are you hesitating to tell us anything here? If nothing else, we can't forgive him for being an evil cultivator and trying to attack us."
Yuehu waved her hand impatiently, and Keqing felt that there was no need to waste time here. Everything that needed to be told had been told, and it was time to catch the cicada.
"Sister Yuehu, let's go..."
As he spoke, his figure flashed and he followed the trail. Zhu Qian, who was behind him, watched the two people leave, stood there for a moment, pinched his palms, and hurriedly followed!
He wanted to see if his eldest son's poisoning was caused by Feng'er! He still didn't believe the poisoning, not to mention that he just saw the figure of the evil cultivator and didn't see the face under the cloak. It was just that the breath was somewhat familiar. Maybe he was just over-guessing.
Zhu Qian disappeared from the spot as he said these self-deceiving thoughts to himself that he himself could not believe.
Although Keqing is also good at tracking, Yuehu, as a fox, is even better at it. However, the two of them do not need to track but directly contact Senior Yun Xin.
How could they just let the other party escape? It was simply that someone had caught up with him earlier. Apart from anything else, it was easy for Senior Yun Xin, as a powerful cultivator of the Void Refining Realm, to track down an evil cultivator of the Spirit Transformation Realm.
Unicorns are especially sensitive to negative beings like evil cultivators, so it's impossible for Keqing and the others to lose them.
But after a while they followed the information and came to the wild
“You guys are here.” Seeing Keqing and the others catching up, Yun Xin nodded, “This guy is still circling around. He might be worried that we are following him.”
Yue Hu looked at Zhu Feng running away in the distance and smiled softly.
"After all, they must be suspicious of us after we were discovered. It's normal for them to think we're following them and not returning to the City Lord's Mansion."
"I'm curious, where is he going? Looking for help? After all, there is more than one evil cultivator in Qingcang City."
Yuehu looked meaningfully at the figure following behind her.
The other party frowned slightly when he heard Yue Hu's words. Could there be other evil cultivators?
Who are these two people? Are they also the girl's companions? Why didn't we get any information about them before?
Zhu Qian was upset and didn't say anything.
I don’t know how long it took, but the figure in front finally turned and stopped beside a remote hill. He looked behind him and smiled coldly.
"I know you guys are following me, come out!"
"Since you want to die, don't blame me."
Chapter 730 Confrontation (1.5 more) (3000)
The shrill sound sounded like the cry of a crow in the quiet night, sounding a bit like the howling of ghosts and wolves.
Zhu Qian frowned slightly and took light steps.
"Wait...what are you going to do?"
Keqing used her spiritual power as a rope to pull
Zhu Qian stopped him.
“He didn’t ask us to…”
Zhu Qian answered subconsciously, "Haven't we discovered everything? It's better to go out openly..."
However, before he could finish his words, he saw Keqing's unspeakable expression and paused.
"Is he going to bomb us?"
"Tsk... I don't know how you have cultivated to this level."
Yue Hu on the side sneered and looked him up and down with a teasing look.
"Tsk tsk, he told you to go out and you went out, are you so naive? Then if he told you to die, would you still die?"
"Since he knew we were there, why was he still shouting instead of attacking us directly?"
Anyone with a bit of brains wouldn't be so "honest". Yue Hu looked Zhu Qian up and down, not understanding why the Lord of Qingcang City looked so stupid!
Could it be that he was also possessed by another body?
Seeing that the other party was looking at him so openly, with no disguising of the sarcasm on his lips and the suspicion in his eyes, Zhu Qian's face darkened slightly. If he had not been well-educated, he would have been furious long ago.
Keqing on the side also sighed, not knowing what to say about the other party's performance.
"Sister Yuehu is right. If we go out on our own initiative, we will lose the initiative. Regardless of whether the other party is trying to trick us or not, we should not go out directly. Even if the other party can guess that someone is following us, what can they do?"
Keqing whispered slowly, "Besides, I didn't realize that he noticed us. Even though his voice was loud and he was facing us, I found that his eyes were not focused on us."
Zhu Qian felt a little embarrassed and looked over subconsciously. As expected, although the guy was heading this way, he probably didn't find their hiding place.
