"Your Highness is wise."
Lin Eryou bowed again.
He looked down and saw Chen Kuang walking out of the county magistrate's mansion in broad daylight with three heads in his hands.
He came without disturbing anyone, but left with great fanfare and without any attempt to hide it.
The sight of him carrying three heads was simply shocking.
However, there is no danger to him anymore in Jishao County, so he can stop hiding and give full play to his abilities.
Zhou Yanwei was slightly stunned and looked at the direction Chen Kuang was heading. "He's going to... the lake?"
Lin Eryou narrowed his eyes, looked into the distance, and smiled suddenly:
"He is going to give someone a taste of his own medicine."
An altar had already been built by the lake.
Originally, they were working overnight, preparing to have the county magistrate and the education officer slaughter tens of thousands of heads the next day to serve as a warning to others.
And now, Chen Kuang was holding three human heads, breaking through the rain, and in full view of everyone, he was going to offer them as sacrifices to the Dragon King!
Lin Eryou analyzed in an orderly manner:
"He will sacrifice these three culprits now. After a few days, when the situation calms down, the people will know that the so-called Dragon King's anger is just a lie told by the county governor, and the story of the sacrifice will be self-defeating."
Zhou Yanwei nodded in agreement. Doing so was indeed the best option to appease the people and dispel the theory of sacrifice.
But soon, Lin Eryou will find that he still doesn't think enough.
…
There were originally many members of the Cao Gang surrounding the County Magistrate's Mansion.
Most of them are practitioners in the Awakening Realm, but among them there are two who are deputy gang leaders trusted by Fan Hailong, and one is a subordinate president.
Both of them are at the innate realm, one is Yuan Jin and the other is He Jin.
After the county magistrate's mansion collapsed, the two men's faces changed drastically. Realizing that something had happened, they rushed inside, but they stopped before they took two steps.
The young man who walked out from inside, holding the human head, was covered in blood, which was dripping onto the ground by the rain.
The three heads were the education officer, the county magistrate, and Fan Hailong!
Although he didn't say anything, it was already shocking.
The guild leader was horrified: "Boss!"
They never imagined that Fan Hailong, who had greatly increased his power after a fortuitous encounter and had established a powerful force in Jishao County, would die so suddenly one day!
When the other Cao Gang members saw this scene, their pupils constricted and they all retreated shouting.
With a loud noise, a large blank circle was formed.
The deputy gang leader swallowed his saliva and shouted in a timid voice, "Who are you?! How dare you kill someone in the county magistrate's mansion..."
Before he could utter the three words "hard", his voice gradually faded away.
I probably defended him out of habit, but after I said it, I realized that my leader had been killed, so why should I defend him now? Isn't this just asking for death?
He only took tens of thousands of taels of silver from the Cao Gang every month. How could it be worth his life?
Chen Kuang looked at him coldly, said nothing, and just walked forward.
The deputy gang leader and the guild president's faces changed drastically and they retreated one after another.
Every time Chen Kuang took a step forward, they took seven or eight steps back.
But Chen Kuang walked faster than they retreated, and in just a few breaths, he was in front of them.
"No! No, no, don't kill me! Master, please spare my life! Master, Master, please!"
The two men turned pale in an instant, fell to the ground, and scrambled away, showing flattering smiles and shouting to the surroundings:
"Get out of the way! What are you standing there for? You have no sense! Make way for the Immortal Master!"
The Cao Gang members looked at each other in bewilderment - they had actually already run away a long way.
Chen Kuang ignored them.
He walked all the way to the half-finished altar, and all the officers and soldiers and Cao Gang members who were originally guarding it had fled.
The few loyal ones were instantly killed by him with a small blood-red sword in his consciousness.
This small sword was condensed in his consciousness when he fully activated the Grass-Cutting Song for the first time.
It seems to be a smaller version of the murderous sword, and its functions are similar, but its power has been largely reduced. Fortunately, it can be used at any time and does not need to rely on killing to be activated.
This is the "Sword of Intention". Every time Zhan Cao Ge activates it, one more sword will appear. It is invisible and can kill people with just thought.
As soon as Chen Kuang saw the small sword, he understood.
This was exactly how Huo Hengxuan "killed" him in his hallucination with this murderous look.
However, when this "Sword of Intent" kills people, it consumes not spiritual energy but spiritual consciousness.
Especially since he had comprehended the meaning of the zither once before, and after using it a few times and killing several people in the awakening state, Chen Kuang felt deeply exhausted as if he had been hollowed out.
If it happens a few more times, I'm afraid my consciousness will become weak and I'll die from the backlash.
If Chen Kuang had not confirmed that there was no danger at this moment, he would not dare to squander like this.
On the altar.
Chen Kuang carried the three heads to the highest point.
“Huff…”
The Dongting Lake in front of us was surging in the wind and rain. Countless fishing boats were swaying on the water and being hit by the waves. There were dark clouds for thousands of miles, and the wind was howling and the rain was roaring. It was very different from the scene of peace and prosperity and bustling people that we saw when we came here.
The wind by the lake was much stronger than on the shore. Chen Kuang's white clothes were rustling in the wind, like a flag fluttering in the wind, attracting everyone's attention.
The fleeing officers, soldiers and gang members stopped unconsciously and turned their gaze towards the altar.
The fishermen and residents by the lake heard the noise and curiously stuck their heads out to find out what was going on.
