Chapter 70: Death of the Evil Cultivator
Gu Shihan looked around and it seemed that he was not teleported to Tianyuan City.
After choosing a direction, Gu Shi took Yu Tong forward. Two days later, Sifang City was in front of them.
Sifang City is considered a medium-sized city. It is the place with the largest number of independent cultivators and is also the headquarters of the Independent Cultivator Alliance.
It should be safe, Gu Shihan thought. Since he came out to gain experience, he should be more cautious. It is not a good idea to be too cautious.
Although things have not been peaceful everywhere recently, monks still need to go out for training, and it is not advisable to be "afraid of snakes in the eyes and alarm yourself".
Gu Shihan entered Sifang City and found an inn owned by a guest named Fulai and stayed there.
Tonight, Gu Shihan did not meditate or practice, nor did he enter the space.
With Yutong by his side, he didn't have to worry about safety and fell into a sound sleep.
It's true that my nerves were too tense in the Tianyuan Secret Realm and I need to relax.
It is indeed good to enter the space, but in this square city, where the headquarters of the Loose Cultivator Alliance is located, there must be a lot of high-level cultivators.
The risk of entering and exiting the space is relatively greater. For the sake of your life and treasures, it is better to live a normal life as a cultivator.
In the middle of the night, Gu Shihan felt a faint smell of blood spreading in the air.
She, who had always been vigilant, suddenly woke up and subconsciously put an invisibility talisman on her body.
"Sister, something's happening!" Yu Tong pointed to the next room.
The two held their breath and moved towards the window quietly. They heard someone knocking three times on the window of the next room.
The person who was sleeping soundly in the room said in a daze: "Who is it?! You are disturbing my sweet dreams! We can talk about it tomorrow if you have anything to say!"
Silence returned outside the window, and the people in the room seemed to have fallen asleep again, and no more movement was heard.
Suddenly, there was a "puff" sound, followed by what seemed to be a human groan.
No!!! This is a shady shop???
Gu Shihan frowned. The sound just now seemed like someone's neck was cut, and the smell of blood was stronger.
Gu Shihan pulled Yutong to stand in the shadows, and sure enough, after a few moments, there were knocks on the window of her room.
Gu Shihan did not dare to be careless and gripped the sword tightly in his hand, ready to attack at any time.
The person outside didn't hear any movement in the house. He pushed open the window with his hand and a man entered the room.
Gu Shihan saw that the man was wearing a black robe covering him from head to toe, with a red skull embroidered on the robe, which looked very strange.
The man in black robe had a very pale face. His nose twitched as he sniffed around in the dark room, sensing human life.
The man in black robe didn't seem to see Gu Shihan and Yutong. He just kept searching around the bed and even sniffed the bed.
Gu Shihan secretly breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, she was careful enough and used the cleansing technique when getting out of bed to eliminate her own scent and traces.
The man in black robe was very unhappy because he didn't find anyone and was about to leave. Yu Tong blew a rage at him, and the man in black robe turned into black ash without even a whimper.
With this episode, Gu Shihan simply entered the space, although she also wanted to know what would happen outside.
However, he still understood that curiosity killed the cat. He was not familiar with this Sifang City at all, so there was no need for him to meddle in its affairs.
The world she came into was too bizarre and full of dangers. What she saw and heard these days made her more cautious.
It was not until dawn that Gu Shihan left the inn and blended into the crowd.
Only then did we learn that some evil cultivators had entered the city last night and massacred two nearby inns.
The Fulai Inn where Gu Shihan stayed was fine, with only guests in a dozen rooms being killed. However, all the thirty-odd monks staying in another inn died, including the innkeeper and the waiter, and no one survived.
Gu Shihan raised his eyebrows. Could it be that Yutong killed the man in black robe and saved the other people in Fulai Inn?
In the streets, patrol teams from the Loose Cultivators Alliance were checking everywhere, searching for suspicious people.
Some people were surprised: "Did no one resist? They died quietly?!"
"No, there was no sign of resistance at all. They were all killed with one blow and bled to death. The elders of the alliance said it was done by evil cultivators."
"Fellow Daoist, aren't the dead people's cultivation levels high?" someone asked.
"They were all Qi-refining and foundation-building cultivators. Only one of them had reached the great perfection of foundation-building. He was so unlucky. That person could have already reached the golden elixir stage, but he died in such an unclear way!" someone sighed.
"Isn't it? Nowadays, evil cultivators and demon cultivators are becoming more and more rampant. Sigh! We are low-level cultivators with low cultivation and few treasures. Even if we are evil cultivators or demon cultivators in person, we can't recognize them. It's dangerous just to think about it."
"Yes! Yes! I really hope that capable high-level cultivators can come out to take charge of the situation and kill the evil cultivators and demon cultivators. They are too bad and too cruel!"
"You are absolutely right. I have cultivated myself so hard, but in the end, I became a resource for evil cultivators and demon cultivators to advance. This is so unfortunate!"
Gu Shihan was still listening to gossip on the street when the news came out from the Loose Cultivator Alliance and was posted on the task bar.
The news is this: the evil cultivator who entered the city is a single person, and his cultivation level is estimated to be between the late foundation building stage and the golden elixir stage.
The conclusion is that the evil cultivator has either left the city, gone into hiding, or is no longer around.
There is news to prove that leaving the city or hiding is a fairly appropriate explanation.
There is a reason for the claim that the evil cultivator was killed by someone, and Li You was the last one to be killed.
There was a little bit of black ash in the room next to the person who was killed, but everything was fine in the guest room over there!
If we want to verify the current statement, we need to find the guest who stayed in room 17 and check it out, and the truth will be revealed.
Gu Shihan smiled, strode out of Sifang City, looked up at the sky, it seemed that he had done another good thing and saved many lives.
"Ding Dong!" With a sound, the task on the task panel was updated. This time the task was long-term. Killing the evil cultivators was the main task, and killing the demon cultivators was the secondary task. The task reward was still to change the life value.
"Hey, sister, are you changing your destiny? Didn't your fate as a cannon fodder change? Could there be other destiny attributes?"
Gu Shihan shook his head. "I don't know. Let's just follow our heart. If we meet one, we'll kill it. We won't go looking for it specifically!"
"Sister, the next five hundred years is Luoshan. Beyond Luoshan is the Soul Devouring Forest. I heard that it's not peaceful there. Should we go there?"
"We can go and take a look! Anyway, we don't have any place we must go. Remember, there are several quest items that can be found in the Soul Devouring Forest.
Speaking of evil cultivators, I have also heard that there are probably evil cultivators lurking there, but judging from the news, the evil cultivators' cultivation should not be high, and most of the victims are young Qi training cultivators, and there are very few foundation building cultivators who were killed."
The master and servant entered Luoshan and planned to cross Luoshan. Isn't this what training requires?
