Upon hearing the administrator's words, the tourists gradually rowed to the shore and loudly questioned the administrator, asking why they had paid money but were not allowed to play.
Faced with everyone's accusations, the administrator didn't know how to explain. He looked at Liu Xiaoyuan, hoping that Liu Xiaoyuan would step forward and say a few words, because it was Liu Xiaoyuan who asked him to do this.
Liu Xiaoyuan glanced at the administrator but didn't say anything, because this matter had nothing to do with him.
Just then, a strong wind suddenly swept across the calm lake, and waves crashed against the shore.
The onlookers who witnessed this scene immediately knew that something was wrong. After all, this was an artificial lake, so such a situation could only occur if there was a very strong wind.
However, although a strong wind is blowing, people standing on the shore do not feel how strong the wind is, which is not enough to cause waves to rise on the lake.
The fact that this has happened can only mean one thing: something is strange.
Liu Xiaoyuan said to Murong Yuyan beside him, "Yuyan, if anything happens later, remember to get away from the shore immediately, understand?"
Although Murong Yuyan didn't know what would happen next, seeing Liu Xiaoyuan's serious demeanor, she knew that things were not simple.
Just then, a figure suddenly appeared on the lake, walking directly across the water. The onlookers who saw this were so surprised that their eyes popped out.
That's right, this person walks on water, and he just lightly touches the surface with his feet, and he's up there! What kind of skill is that? Are there really such masters in this world?
The man stood on the lake not far away, looked at the crowd, and asked, "Who among you killed my child?"
No one spoke. What child? They had never seen this so-called child before.
Everyone looked at each other, then shook their heads, indicating they didn't know.
Looking at the man, Liu Xiaoyuan knew that this guy was the mastermind behind the child sacrifice. The man was surrounded by an aura of death, and he didn't look like a good person at all.
Besides, this man was just a cultivator at the early stage of the Golden Core realm, so Liu Xiaoyuan didn't care at all!
Seeing that no one was willing to admit it, the man standing on the water sneered and said, "Since none of you are willing to admit it, then fine, I'll just kill you all!"
Upon hearing the man's words, everyone present was shocked and wanted to run away; they were all terrified.
Since the man was able to walk on water, it proved that his skills were extremely high, so no one thought he was exaggerating.
Liu Xiaoyuan stepped forward and said calmly, "The four children you sacrificed were killed by me. The grievances have their perpetrators, and the debtors have their debtors. The person you are looking for is me. Don't implicate the innocent."
Upon hearing Liu Xiaoyuan's words, the man sized him up. Seeing that he couldn't discern Liu Xiaoyuan's cultivation level, he was greatly surprised and asked, "What is your cultivation level?"
The man didn't believe Liu Xiaoyuan was an ordinary person. Since he knew about the sacrificial process and was able to kill the children he had been sacrificing, it proved that the other party must also be a cultivator.
However, I can't see through the other party's cultivation level. Either the other party is hiding their cultivation level with a secret treasure, or the other party's cultivation level is much higher than mine.
If it were the former, the man wouldn't be too afraid; even if he was no match for the enemy, he could still escape.
But if it's the latter, then I might really be doomed here.
Who doesn't cherish their own life? Especially cultivators, who have finally reached this level of cultivation, if they want to live a good life in the mortal world, it's a piece of cake.
"Fellow Daoist, may I ask what your cultivation level is?" Seeing that he couldn't see through Liu Xiaoyuan's cultivation level, the man simply asked directly.
Upon hearing the other party's words, Liu Xiaoyuan snorted coldly and said, "Who am I? Aren't you being a bit nosy? Why should I tell you?"
Upon hearing the series of words, the other party was taken aback. He hadn't expected Liu Xiaoyuan to answer him so directly, which made the man a little angry.
However, the man dared not act rashly before he could ascertain Liu Xiaoyuan's true cultivation level.
"Fellow Daoist, why so angry?" the man said with a smile.
Liu Xiaoyuan snorted coldly and said, "Of course I have a bad temper and treat human life like dirt. Do you think I have a bad temper?"
Upon hearing this, the man knew that Liu Xiaoyuan was referring to him, and that he was talking about the child he was supposed to be sacrificing.
The man smiled and said, "That was out of necessity. Fellow Daoist should know that for a cultivator like me, doing something outrageous in the pursuit of immortality is inevitable!"
The onlookers who overheard the conversation were a bit confused, and they all looked at each other blankly.
"Well said! It's inevitable that some outrageous things will happen in the pursuit of immortality!" Liu Xiaoyuan laughed heartily.
Seeing this, the man also laughed. After laughing, he said, "Fellow Daoist, there is a saying among mortals: those who achieve great things do not concern themselves with trifles. How much more so for us cultivators."
"Alright, to accomplish something great today, I'll disregard all formalities and take your life first!" After saying that, Liu Xiaoyuan immediately unleashed his supernatural power and set up a barrier!
When the man saw Liu Xiaoyuan make his move, he immediately tried to escape, but he suddenly realized that he was completely blocked off and trapped in a small space.
"What...what did you do to me?" The man was so frightened by his trapped state that he could barely speak.
"Why am I trapping you? It's because I'm going to take your life today!" Liu Xiaoyuan said calmly.
Before taking action, Liu Xiaoyuan also set up a barrier to prevent those present from seeing what was happening on his side.
After all, she was going to kill this man later, and it wouldn't be good if everyone found out.
"Fellow Daoist, Fellow Daoist, spare my life! I promise I will turn over a new leaf and start anew!" the man pleaded hastily.
Liu Xiaoyuan said calmly, "The opportunity is gone. Since I said I would kill you, I cannot go back on my word!"
"Fellow Daoist, there's no need for us to fight to the death. If my Golden Core self-destructs, you won't fare any better!" the man threatened directly.
Liu Xiaoyuan said calmly, "You want to self-destruct your Golden Core? I'm afraid you won't have the chance!"
No sooner had he finished speaking than Liu Xiaoyuan made his move. The Blood Drinking Sword, which had been lying in ambush inside the barrier, severed the man's head.
The man didn't react at all and died instantly.
After killing the man, Liu Xiaoyuan set fire to the man's body to kill him, and then collected the man's golden core.
