Zi Yue belatedly realized what was happening, and she rode the wind, transforming into a stream of blue light as she headed towards Old Locust City.
On her way to Old Locust City, Zi Yue once again detected the aura of the evil cultivator. She landed in the woods, where there were no signs of a fight, but there was the corpse of an evil cultivator.
The evil cultivator's head was deformed, as if it had been struck by some heavy object. Zi Yue murmured softly, "This doesn't seem to be the method of Master Wuxiang. It seems that there are other powerful figures dealing with the evil cultivator."
Zi Yue continued on her journey, during which she discovered several corpses of evil cultivators, all of whose heads were deformed.
"What a strange quirk..."
Zi Yue scratched her head and activated the fire talisman, burning the corpses of these evil cultivators to ashes.

This is not a place where you can act recklessly."
"snort!"
A cold snort.
The surrounding guards were all blown away.
Master Wuxiang slowly walked into the old locust tree town.
The local people wanted to take the opportunity to enter the city, but they were blocked by an invisible barrier.
