Chapter 145 A great hermit hiding in the city?
In Shangdingcheng, the county seat of Dingyang County in Qianzhou, a gray light fell silently over the county government.
In a house in the backyard, the White Bone Lady just appeared. Her legs went soft and she sat on the carpet. She raised her hands. The flesh on them was gone, revealing bones that were covered with cracks and blood was oozing out.
The skin on other parts of Mrs. White Bone's body dried up quickly, and she looked like a centenarian.
"Damn it, I didn't expect Miro to be able to get the Red Blood Sutra." Madam Bai Gu was unwilling, and at the same time, there was a little more fear in her eyes towards Miro.
At this time, two streams of light flew in from outside, revealing black mist and purple mist.
"The Red Blood Demon Sword is ferocious and strange. Miro, who has learned the Red Blood Sutra, is no match for ordinary innate masters. Unless he learns a technique of the same level as the Red Blood Sutra and has a top-grade fairy treasure, he will be able to compete with it." A woman's voice came from the black fog.
"I didn't expect that a Green Ghost with such great cultivation would be willing to obey Zhou An's orders. I'm afraid we will have to fight with him in the future." The old man's voice came from the black fog.
"Zhou An's cultivation is stronger than we expected. To deal with him, we need to find a way to restrain Miro. Moreover, his unique Three Yuan True Water is very tricky, so we also need to find a way to restrain it." A female voice came from the black fog.
"You two can go and find out about this matter. I need to retreat and heal my wounds. The Red Blood Meridian has hurt my real body, and I will definitely take revenge for this." Madam Bai Gu said gritting her teeth.
At this time, footsteps were heard outside, and the black fog and purple fog immediately dissipated.
The door outside was pushed open, and two maids walked in. Seeing Madam White Bone's ferocious appearance, they were not afraid at all. They bowed and called out, "Madam."
"Bring ten monks here." Madam White Bone said, and one of the maids came over and helped her sit on the edge of the bed.
Soon, ten monks whose cultivation was sealed were brought in. When they saw the hideous face of Madam White Bone, they were so scared that they collapsed to the ground, trembling and unable to speak.
The Bones Lady rushed forward, grabbed a man's neck with her bony hands, and pierced his throat with her bony fingers, turning all his flesh and blood into a bloody stream of light and sucking it away.
A cultivator of the second level of innate energy turned into a pile of dry bones in just a dozen seconds, and then the others were sucked dry one by one.
The flesh on Mrs. White Bone's body finally recovered and she turned back into her original beautiful woman.
At this time, a man who looked no more than 30 years old walked in from outside the door. Seeing ten withered skeletons in the room, he was surprised and asked, "Madam, what happened?"
"I had a fight with Emperor Qianyuan." Madam Bai Gu said unhappily, and went to sit down nearby. The maid poured her a cup of blood-red tea.
"Your Majesty!" The man shouted in fear and hurried forward and said, "Madam, how can you go against the emperor? If we are found out, we will all be finished."
Madam White Bone slapped the table, and the demonic power spread, turning the table into powder. She roared, "What are you afraid of? Even if the emperor finds this place, he will still be far from being able to do anything to Madam White Bone."
The man said in embarrassment: "Madam is a deity, so she is not afraid, but I am just a county governor. Now with the power of the emperor, I have nowhere to run even if I want to."
"Hmph, I have been with you for more than two hundred years. I helped you establish the reputation of the largest family in Dingyang County, and you have also lived for two hundred years. Even if I die, you will have gained enough." Madam Bai Gu looked at him with ill intention.
The man knelt down quickly and said, "Madam, please calm down. Considering that I have collected people and animals for you over the past two hundred years, even if I have no merit, I have worked hard. Please don't abandon me."
"Hmph." Madam Bai Gu looked at the man with contempt, stood up and raised her hand towards him. Suddenly, blood appeared on both of her arms, and blood and gas came out.
"Blood demon power! Damn it, the power of the Red Blood Sutra is still in me." Madam Bai Gu was shocked and angry. Suddenly, a hairpin flew out and turned into a scimitar to cut off her arms.
The severed hand fell to the ground and was immediately corroded by the blood magic power, finally turning into a ball of blood.
Mrs. Bones suddenly turned around and shot out gray blood from her broken hand, which pierced into the bodies of the two maids around her. The two women screamed a few times, and their bodies were quickly sucked dry and turned into bones.
And Mrs. Bones' hands quickly regenerated.
The man in front of him knelt on the ground and didn't even dare to raise his head.
"If you want to live longer, then be a good dog." Mrs. White Bone said in an emotionless tone.
"Yes, I understand." The man quickly knelt down and crawled away.
········ In the main hall of Qianjing Imperial Palace, Zhou An flew here with Xiao Wu and others. He looked at these people. Most of them were demon cultivators, and one of them was a ghost. This was the first time he saw a ghost other than Miro. The other two were humans.
"You can arrange them yourself. Now that you are the general of the demon tribe, you can recruit some of your own subordinates." Zhou An said.
"Thank you, Your Majesty. I'll take my leave now." After bowing, Xiao Wu led everyone to her own manor.
"Don't forget to practice the Eight Desolate Divine Fire Formation with them. You must be able to fully perform it within half a year." Zhou An said.
"Got it." Xiao Wu waved her hand and couldn't wait to take everyone back.
At this time, Zhou An was sensed by the connection with the Xuanguan Mirror. He raised his hand and cast a spell. A water mirror appeared in front of him, and Miro's figure appeared.
"Found it. The master would never imagine where she is hiding." Miro showed a playful expression.
"It won't be in Qianjing, right?" Zhou An said.
"She is from Shangdingcheng, the county seat of Dingyang County, and she is also the nominal wife of the county governor. However, they have kept a group of cultivators and living people of specific bloodlines in the county seat, specifically for Madam White Bone to practice with."
Zhou An frowned. He didn't expect that the officials under him would actually do such a thing. Keeping living people in captivity for cultivation was beyond the scope of the laws of the Qianyuan Empire. This was something that he had never dared to think about before. Only evil people would do such a thing.
Miro then asked, "Master, the other two didn't notice it. Should we get rid of Madam White Bone now?"
"Wait, let's find a way to find those two people through Madam Bai Gu. These are potential enemies that pose a real threat in the future. I will let Zhou Lingsha deal with Dingyang County." Zhou An said.
"Yes." After Miro finished speaking, the Xuanguan Mirror spell disappeared.
Zhou An used the Xuan Guang Mirror to contact Zhou Lingsha. Ever since this girl survived the triple heavenly tribulation, she immediately became lazy. She spent the whole day investigating cases everywhere, digging up other people's secrets, and eating, drinking and having fun.
When Zhou Lingsha's shadow appeared, she was sitting in a luxurious restaurant, holding a plate in one hand and a drink in the other.
"Let's meet in Dingcheng, Dingyang County. Come quickly." Zhou An shook his head helplessly.
"What good news?" Zhou Lingsha's eyes lit up. Now that she had reached the fourth level of the innate realm, her strength had greatly increased. The people that the Jinyiwei usually investigated were at most the seventh level of the acquired realm, and there was no place for her to use her skills.
"It's a big case involving a demon cultivator who has reached the great perfection of the innate realm. Bring a team of elite Jinyiwei with you. I'll be waiting for you at Dingyang Tower." After Zhou An finished speaking, he cast a spell and turned into a stream of light and flew away.
Zhou Lingsha was happy. Although the innate great perfection was out of her reach, with Zhou An in front of her, she didn't need to take the lead. She could just give full play to her subordinates.
My blood boils just thinking about it. All of a sudden, the delicious food on the table doesn’t smell so good anymore. But we have to eat it all. For a foodie, wasting a table full of delicious food is unforgivable.
So he ate voraciously while contacting the leader of the Embroidered Uniform Guard.
