Liu Xiaoyuan looked at the old woman in front of him, wondering why she asked this question. How many cultivators are here? What does it have to do with you?
After thinking for a moment, Liu Xiaoyuan said, "I'm not quite sure about that, old man. Why are you asking about this? Do you have something to do with the cultivators in this area?"
The old man said, "I have no business with them, but one of my grandsons died here, so I suspect it was one of the cultivators here who killed him."
As the old man spoke, his eyes were fixed on Liu Xiaoyuan, as if he wanted to see through Liu Xiaoyuan's thoughts.
Upon hearing this, Liu Xiaoyuan was taken aback; it seemed this old woman had come looking for trouble. However, Liu Xiaoyuan realized that the other party was only at the late Nascent Soul stage, and besides, he hadn't killed her grandson.
Therefore, Liu Xiaoyuan was not afraid of her at all.
“Grandpa, what is your grandson’s cultivation level? If it were a battle between cultivators happening around here, I would probably know. But there haven’t been any major battles here lately,” Liu Xiaoyuan said, looking at the old man.
Upon hearing Liu Xiaoyuan's words, the old man said, "My grandson's cultivation level is not high. If you attack him, he will be completely powerless to fight back."
Upon hearing this, Liu Xiaoyuan was completely taken aback. "Damn it, does your statement imply that I killed your grandson?"
"Old man, don't talk nonsense. I don't know your grandson at all, and I have no grudge against him. Why would I kill your grandson?" Liu Xiaoyuan said hurriedly to the old man.
The old man looked at Liu Xiaoyuan with a cold gaze and said, "I was just saying it casually, why are you so nervous?"
Liu Xiaoyuan said, "I'm not nervous, I'm defending myself. If I said you killed someone, would you defend yourself?"
The old man didn't say anything, glanced at Liu Xiaoyuan, and then flew away.
Liu Xiaoyuan shook his head. This old man's temper was really strange. Afterwards, Liu Xiaoyuan went home and didn't go with the old man anymore.
The next day, Liu Xiaoyuan received a call from Lu Siyao, who said that a strange thing had happened in the village where the cow had gone missing. An old man was going from house to house in their village asking if any strangers had entered their village and what the strangers looked like.
Moreover, the old woman's attitude was extremely hostile; if you didn't answer, she would hit you, which frightened the villagers so much that they dared not remain silent.
So someone secretly called the police, and Lu Siyao went to carry out the mission again.
However, Lu Siyao felt that this matter was unusual, so she immediately called Liu Xiaoyuan.
After receiving Lu Siyao's call, Liu Xiaoyuan immediately thought of the old woman he had met last night. She said she was looking for her grandson. Now, she had gone to the village where the cow had gone missing and found her grandson. Could her grandson be a weasel?
Indeed, when Liu Xiaoyuan saw the old man last night, he felt that the old man was not a normal person.
"Siyao, wait for me, I'm coming too." Liu Xiaoyuan knew that the old woman was in that village and that she had the cultivation of the late Nascent Soul stage. If Lu Siyao went there and angered the old woman, she wouldn't be able to deal with her.
Fearing that Lu Siyao might be in danger, Liu Xiaoyuan immediately set off.
Upon arriving at the village, Liu Xiaoyuan saw Lu Siyao, and the old man was also there. When the old man saw Liu Xiaoyuan, he glanced at him and said, "Boy, you're here again."
Liu Xiaoyuan said, "I've come to take a look. My woman is handling a case here, so naturally I have to come and see."
"Did you kill my grandson?" the old man asked Liu Xiaoyuan.
Liu Xiaoyuan laughed and said, "Old man, don't make things up without evidence. I don't even know who your grandson is."
"Hmph, who is my grandson? Fine, I'll take you to see my grandson's corpse." The old man said to Liu Xiaoyuan.
Liu Xiaoyuan also wanted to confirm whether the old man's grandson was a weasel, so he immediately nodded in agreement.
“Okay, old man, I’ll go with you to take a look.” Liu Xiaoyuan said with a smile, then said to Lu Siyao beside him, “Siyao, you wait for me here, don’t wander off.”
Liu Xiaoyuan followed the old man up the mountain. When they reached the top, the old man led Liu Xiaoyuan there, where they saw the carcass of the weasel.
"Old man, it's just a weasel." Liu Xiaoyuan was still surprised when he saw the weasel's carcass. He hadn't expected the old man to be a weasel.
"This is my grandson." As the old man spoke, he looked directly at Liu Xiaoyuan, trying to discern something different from the expression on Liu Xiaoyuan's face.
Liu Xiaoyuan feigned surprise and said, "Your grandson is actually a weasel? Old man, are you sure you're not mistaken?"
"This is my grandson, I'm not mistaken," the old man said, squinting at Liu Xiaoyuan.
"Oh, old man, your grandson is a weasel? Then you're a weasel too?" Liu Xiaoyuan looked at the old man in surprise, but his heart remained calm.
"Kid, don't pretend in front of me. I know you know something," the old man said, looking at Liu Xiaoyuan.
Liu Xiaoyuan said with a smile, "Old man, what do I know? I'm only just finding out about your grandson. Tell me, what do I know?"
Liu Xiaoyuan naturally wouldn't admit to killing the weasel; it was clear that this weasel wasn't just from a simple family.
Who knows, there might be even more powerful experts above this weasel, which would be a troublesome matter.
Moreover, animals like weasels are known to hold grudges. If they knew that I had killed this little weasel, it might fight me to the death.
Therefore, to avoid unnecessary trouble, this matter must not be admitted under any circumstances.
"Hmph, if you don't know something, why did you rush over here?" the old man asked Liu Xiaoyuan.
Liu Xiaoyuan chuckled and said, "I came here after receiving a call from my woman. She said this matter was suspicious, so I came over."
The old man noticed nothing unusual on Liu Xiaoyuan's face and said calmly, "Boy, since you're willing to talk, then fine, I'll slaughter everyone in this village. My grandson died in their village, so I'll make sure everyone in that village pays the price."
Holy crap! Is this a serial killer?
“Hey, old man, you’re going to provoke a lot of people by doing this,” Liu Xiaoyuan asked the old man.
The old man snorted and said, "I don't care about any of that. I want to avenge my grandson. Since we can't find the murderer, I'll make these people pay with their lives."
"If you, old man, are going to lay a hand on me, then I'm sorry, but don't blame me for stopping you."
