Am I a waste?
Qin Baoyao returned to the sect and handed the person over to the Law Enforcement Hall. Then he returned to his residence and lay down.
"Shiyue Shiyue, why don't our uncle and the others let us continue to participate? They also said that our mission has ended?" Qin Baoyao finally lay down on the rocking chair again, rocking and eating snacks, and asked curiously.
The matter was obviously very serious, as could be seen from the serious expressions of the sect masters, but they asked us to write a report and submit it to the mission hall, then declared the mission completed and did not allow us to participate in subsequent matters.
"Junior Sister, isn't it good that you don't have to worry about anything?" Shi Yue looked at Qin Baoyao, who started to lie down and live again after returning to the sect, and felt that this was the life she should live.
A few days ago in Songzi City, she was so nervous that she couldn't even sleep every day. It was heartbreaking to see her.
"That's right. With my brother and uncle-in-law around, the issues in Songzi City should be resolved quickly." She lay on the chair, watching Shi Yue skillfully take out the tools and grill meat for her, shaking her head:
"It's still a comfortable day like this~"
"Yes, it's more comfortable to live like this." Shi Yue looked at the comfortable Qin Baoyao and sighed with her.
Looking towards the main peak, he thought to himself: The situation in Songzi City is definitely not as simple as it seems on the surface. I have already discussed it with Senior Brother Qin, and I believe he will have a better solution.
Sure enough, not long after, just a few days after Qin Baoyao had been lying comfortably, she received the news that her brother had returned. At the same time, she also received an announcement from Guiyi Sect that it would publicly announce the situation in Songzi City.
Qin Baoyao held the sound transmission stone and said, "Shi Yue, look, my brother is coming back."
She ran to the sect gate to wait for someone, but when Qin Jun came back, he just greeted her from a distance and left in a hurry without giving her a chance to show his concern.
She looked at her brother who had only greeted her, and then at Shi Yue, her face full of confusion: "Why did my brother leave so quickly? He didn't even give me time to care about him."
"It must be an urgent matter." Shi Yue comforted her who looked a little depressed.
Looking at the other people who came back with them, she thought about it and felt that it made sense. She pulled Shi Yue and said, "Then let's go over and join in the fun."
When they arrived at the main hall, they found that they could not enter through the main entrance because there were too many people.
She pulled the people and ran silently to the back. She pressed on the wall and a small door appeared. She led the people directly in through the small door.
Shi Yue looked at the wall that had returned to its original state after they entered: Even the main hall had a back door opened for her?
He brought his men and quietly arrived at the main hall, only to discover that the atmosphere there was tense. In addition to the uncles, aunts, and elders of the sect, as well as some of the disciples who had gone to Songzi City, there were actually some strangers, but they were all tied up in the center of the hall.
When Shi Yue saw the people in the center of the hall, he realized that they were a group of people who were almost completely corroded by the evil spirit and were about to fall into evil. He couldn't help but pull Qin Baoyao, who was looking at the front, back a step.
"What's wrong?" Qin Baoyao, who was watching seriously, was pulled back a step and turned to look at him in confusion.
"Those people are going to become demons." Shi Yue pointed at the people in the center of the hall.
"What?" Qin Baoyao exclaimed, and everyone in the hall looked at her instantly.
After realizing it was her, he turned around and continued discussing related matters.
Anyway, this child just likes to join in the fun. As long as there is no danger, let her join in the fun.
"It's a pity that the city lord named Guan Sha died, otherwise we would have one more piece of evidence." Yun Xuemin sighed after aligning the information with others.
"Big Brother, we have interrogated the man in the innermost room of the Law Enforcement Hall's detention room, but we didn't expect that he would die directly." Qin Gu was also helpless. When they knew that this man practiced both spiritual and demonic cultivation, they had already made a series of preparations. Even Bai Qing wanted to check on him, but he didn't find any traces of controlling elixirs or the like.
But the person suddenly died during the interrogation, and his body began to dissipate as soon as he died. Even if it was a self-explosion, it would not be so exaggerated.
"What did the interrogation reveal?"
Niu Jing, the head of the Law Enforcement Hall, stood up and explained to everyone the information they had obtained through various means of interrogation.
The more they listened, the more serious and angry they became. "It actually started so early? And it's a conspiracy targeting both mortals and cultivators. Those demonic cultivators are truly a bunch of lunatics. In their mouths, a population of 200,000 or 300,000 has become a stepping stone for their great cause."
After hearing this, Yun Xuemin started cursing, regretting that he didn't know who the master they were talking about was, otherwise he would have drawn his sword and killed them.
Why do the major sects need to protect the surrounding mortal cities? Isn't it because cultivators are still a minority after all? So when the number of residents in a town reaches a certain level and they receive a request for protection, they will generally send disciples to set up formations or assist in managing city affairs.
Songzi City, a city with such a large population, took many years to develop to this point, but it was treated as an innocent person to be sacrificed by the demons and demon cultivators.
If Qin Baoyao had not discovered it accidentally, when this city completely fell under the rule of the demons, these people would have become food or become part of the demon cultivators.
Qin Baoyao, who was peeking at the side, nodded frequently as she listened.
Fortunately, she went, fortunately, the voice stone her brother gave her had a special contact method, and fortunately, Shi Yue was perceptive enough, otherwise, by the time she realized it, she would have been completely tricked.
Death is one thing, but not being able to spread the news of what's happening in the city is a bigger problem.
Thinking of this, she grabbed Shi Yue's hand, feeling relieved.
"Now that the matter has been discovered, we have tried our best to help the people in the city. The rest depends on how the Biyun Sect handles the aftermath. The most important thing right now is to let everyone in the cultivation world know the truth of the matter and be vigilant." When Bai Qing discovered that there were very few people who even he felt were in trouble and unable to be treated, he became worried about the situation in other cities. He was even more worried that more people would be inadvertently involved.
Therefore, the most urgent task is to make everyone more vigilant.
Qin Gu was a little helpless about this. If this matter was made public, it would definitely cause panic among the people. But there was no other way. If it was kept secret, not only would the people from other sects and those independent cultivators make wild guesses without knowing the truth, but rumors would also be unavoidable.
More importantly, what if other towns encounter the same situation?
After some discussion, Qin Gu first passed the message to the other three major sects, and then asked someone to take the photo stone to deliver evidence to the other three major sects.
Although Guiyi Sect is the largest sect, it is not the only one after all. Some things require cooperation from the other three major sects.
After some back and forth, the date was set for seven days later, and the matter would be made public at the venue used for the Immortal Sect Competition.
Seven days later, at the Immortal Sect Competition Venue, the four major sects had already arrived. The Biyun Sect, the sect involved in the incident, had also arrived and captured some of its disciples.
Other sects sent important people to participate in this event, and independent cultivators also came here in groups of three or four to gather together to discuss.
"What's going on? Have you heard?"
"I heard it, I heard it. Guiyi Sect has already posted a notice about it. There should be no one who doesn't know about it, right?"
"Eh? So, tell me, is it true or false? Demons and demon cultivators appearing in a mortal city?"
"I'm not sure, but wasn't the incident in Songzi City a huge commotion at the time? The Guiyi Sect sent batches of people over there, so I think it's probably true."
"But what I heard is that they went there to grab territory."
"Going to Songzi City to seize territory? Running so far to seize a place inhabited by ordinary people? If you were in my shoes, would you go?"
"I'm not stupid. It's hard work and thankless."
"Then do you think the people of Guiyi Sect are stupid?"
"That's right. If we want to rob, we should rob those small secret realms and the like. Only then can we grab useful resources."
When Qin Baoyao and the people from the sect set out to come here, she pulled Shi Yue along on the flying boat.
At this time, they were mixed in the crowd, waiting for the people from Guiyi Sect to arrive, and they heard everyone's discussion.
"Fellow Daoists, what do you think about this matter?" After listening to some discussions, Qin Baoyao couldn't help but join in the conversation and asked a question.
"I have a rumor that Songzi City was nearly destroyed by those demon cultivators."
"Your news is wrong. I heard that even the people from Guiyi Sect were almost wiped out."
"Hey, hey, hey, that's even more wrong. It's said that their Guiyi Sect's ancestor, Qin Baoyao, was beaten and crippled in Songzi City. That's why they paid so much attention to him."
"You mean the one who was fed a bunch of natural treasures or the loser who is only at the second level of Qi Refining?"
"Are you crazy? How dare you say that? She's the ancestor of Guiyi Sect. If she hears, be careful she might send someone to beat you up."
"You guys are too out of date, aren't you? Guiyi Sect already discovered the announcement a long time ago, saying that she has already established her foundation." A person who really likes to see what's new in the world of cultivation came over and said.
"Her? Foundation building? Do you believe she can build the foundation? Or do you believe I can form a pill within five years?" The man was not convinced. If he had the resources that Qin Baoyao had, he would have formed a pill long ago and would not be still in the middle stage of foundation building.
"Whether it's true or not, when you meet her, you can just give her a fight and find out, right?" The man, who wanted to watch the fun, instigated.
Qin Baoyao, having eaten the melon herself, looked at the casual cultivator who had sworn she was crippled, then pointed at herself and said to Shi Yue: "Why are they saying that we belong to the same sect? And they're saying that about me? I'm useless? I used to admit it, but now, someone who's already reached the late stage of foundation building before I'm even twenty, I'm useless?"
Shi Yue grabbed her hand and let it go: This action is too obvious.
He whispered to her, "Don't worry about what they say. It's normal for people who don't know the truth to make wild guesses. Anyway, the truth will be revealed today. Once they know the truth, they won't make such guesses anymore." After a pause, he continued, "As for what that person said, it's even simpler. Go beat him up later, and he'll know whether you're useless or not."
"That makes sense. I just don't believe it. After I beat him up, he still dares to call me a waste." Qin Baoyao felt better instantly after hearing Shi Yue's comfort.
She is now in the late stage of foundation building. Even if she still lacks practical experience, at least her cultivation is there, and she can find someone to beat her up when the time comes.
After they exchanged secret messages, an excited voice came: "Look, they are coming."
