Lincheng is more than 200 miles away from Longliu Villa. It would take more than two hours to get there by horseback at full speed, but it would be dawn in half an hour at most.

It was simply unrealistic to ask Long Yichen to rush over with a child who was over a hundred years old.

Not to mention that they didn't have the physical strength to make it in time. Just the noise they made, with more than a hundred children gathered together on the road, would be discovered in minutes.

At the same time, Duger was also worried that Long Yichen would kill the child and run away.

After all, he subdued Long Yichen and others by inciting their evil thoughts, causing them to cause great disasters.

But this devastating disaster also meant that the enemy they were facing was too powerful, and his own identity as a demon was too sensitive. Therefore, not only was Long Yichen unfamiliar with him, but they were also mortal enemies, so it was impossible for him to risk his life for him just because of a few words.

If given the chance, Doug would find no reason not to run.

If you really want to win these people over to your side, you have to make them truly afraid of you and make it profitable for them to follow you.

The way to control people is to use both kindness and severity.

then.

After finding out the direction of Lincheng, Doug controlled the power of darkness, wrapped everyone in it, and began to teleport under the cover of night.

He gave this move a nice name - Hundred Ghosts Moving Technique!

In Douger's hands, the soul-calming bottle has become a universal bottle, and all the effects of divine power can be put into it.

This is the advantage of being in a game field. The audience outside has no way to understand the true function of the magic weapon. As long as he holds the soul-calming bottle, the final right of interpretation is in his hands.

Later, he learned magic and found a way to destroy the bottle, so there would be no evidence.

Of course, it wouldn’t matter if someone from Pan Universe Entertainment came in, took over his body, and discovered the secret of the soul-soothing bottle.

As long as he can still make money, the people at Pan Universe Entertainment will help him cover it up.

The hottest star is so confident.

…

No matter how the audience outside commented on the effect of the Soul-Calming Bottle, Long Yichen regretted it to his core. If he had known that the Soul-Calming Bottle had such a great effect, he would have rushed to get the bottle first. In this way, he would have been in control of the initiative.

…

No matter how little dark power there is, it is still top-notch power.

Before dawn, Duger managed to transport everyone to Lincheng.

The power of gods and ghosts shocked everyone, and Long Yichen and others temporarily suppressed the thoughts of betrayal.

In front of Doug, Long Yichen placed Jian Shisan and others in his secret manor without any secret tricks.

However, he also reminded Douge that there were many gossipy people in the manor, and once the matter of Longliu Villa spread, the affairs of Jian Shisan and others would not be kept secret for long, so he had to find a way to place these children as soon as possible.

Doug naturally agreed.

On that day, Du Ge, Long Yichen and others returned to Longliu Villa.

You can also use dark power during the day, but the consumption will be several times that of night, and it will make too much noise.

Douger would naturally not waste his divine power to bring them back.

They found a few horses in the villa, disguised themselves, and rode back to Fancheng.

…

The tragedy at Longliu Villa was discovered at noon by a merchant from Fancheng who was delivering food to the villa.

The magistrate of Fancheng County knew that Longliu Villa was the property of Prince Duan. When he heard that the whole Longliu Villa had been wiped out, his legs went weak and he peed his pants on the spot.

The county magistrate took the yamen runners to investigate the scene, and then quickly sent someone to report to the prefect. There were more than a thousand people, and not a single one was alive. Who knew how many high-ranking officials were killed among them. Such a shocking case was no longer something he could handle.

…

The news cannot be covered up.

That day.

Everyone in Fancheng, young and old, men, women and children, knew about the tragedy at Longliu Manor.

For a time, everyone was in danger. The people thought that some bandits had come to Fancheng, or that it was the evil spirit mentioned in the notice.

When the people thought about how terrifying the evil spirit was, they instantly gave up the idea of ​​reporting it to the government. It was not worth offending such a monster for a hundred taels of silver!

The news spread.

When Duger brought Long Yichen and others back to Fancheng, their ranking had already climbed all the way to first place, and their attributes had also soared significantly.

…

Doug suddenly disappeared.

Niu Sanbao and the others thought about it for a whole day, and the more they thought about it, the more they felt that the Xiaoyao Sect was not what it seemed.

No one knows when Duger will recover. If his traitor who killed his master and ancestors comes looking for him, they will probably just be cannon fodder.

After some discussion, they decided that it would be better to leave Fancheng first. However, just as they had packed up their belongings, they heard about what happened at Longliu Villa.

Niu Sanbao and his companions were so frightened at the time that they instinctively linked the Longliu Villa tragedy with Duger.

After all, Doug had asked them about Longliu Villa at that time.

As a result, just as Duger disappeared, the entire Longliu Villa was wiped out. If you say this was a coincidence, no one would believe it.

When they thought of Longliu Villa being destroyed by Du Ge, Niu Sanbao and others immediately put their valuables back to their original places and didn't even dare to run away.

Such a murderous person, after coming back, found that they had run away. If he finds them again, how can they survive?

Moreover, the fact that Du Ge destroyed an entire village by himself also gave Niu Sanbao and others hope. Perhaps Du Ge and others' skills were about to recover.

I finally joined the Xiaoyao Sect, and if I ran away right when I was about to learn the magic skills, wouldn’t my hand be broken in vain! Niu Sanbao pondered for a long time, and after colluding with several brothers to give their testimony and concealing the information about the Xiaoyao Sect, he stayed in his yard with trepidation, recovering from his injuries while waiting for the return of the Xiaoyao Patriarch.

…

Duger did not return to Fancheng, but stayed outside Longliu Villa. More than a thousand people suddenly died in Longliu Villa. When the alien warriors were causing chaos, he didn't believe that no one would come to investigate.

After causing the tragedy at Longliu Villa, Duger successfully pushed himself to the first place. At this time, he became more and more eager for magic.

Longliu Villa is built on the mountain.

Behind the manor is a dense forest. Doug and others hid in the dense forest halfway up the mountain, watching the manor below.

The yamen runners blocked the entrance to the villa. The county magistrate, along with the coroner and several yamen runners, searched the villa but did not dare to turn over the body rashly.

Walking among the corpses lying in all directions, the trembling coroner didn't even dare to turn over the corpses. Even though he had been dealing with corpses for many years, he had never seen so many corpses at once! The wealthy families in Fancheng whose family members died in the villa wanted to come in to look for their relatives, but they were held down by the yamen runners at the intersection.

…

The location where Doug and others were located was about a mile away from the villa. Even at such a long distance, they could still smell the pungent smell of blood.

"Master Long, do you feel a sense of accomplishment after committing such a big crime?" Doug asked with a smile.

He had experienced wars, the end of the world, and had seen too many dead people. He had long been hard-hearted, and the small scene before him did not stir up any waves in his heart at all. What's more, these people deserved to die.

A sense of accomplishment? You call this a sense of accomplishment?

Long Yichen was going crazy looking at the heartless Duger.

Especially since he had killed so many people and not only did he not run away, but he was also watching the excitement outside Longliu Villa. His heart beat faster and faster and he felt like his life was hanging by a thread.

If he could defeat Doug, he would have killed the devil and run away.

Long Yichen stuffed a piece of dried meat into his mouth and chewed it hard to relieve his nervousness. He lowered his voice and asked, "Senior Xiaoyaozi, do we really need to wait here?"

"You are willing to sacrifice your life to bring down the emperor." Du Ge said, "If we don't wait here, where can we find a Qi cultivator? Without a Qi cultivator, where can we get the magic? Master Long, you have caused such a big disaster. You can't get through it with your mediocre skills. Only practice can help you survive this disaster."

"How can cultivation be that easy?" Long Yichen muttered with a wry smile, "If everyone could cultivate, there would be gods everywhere."

"If you can't be a god, you can be a free and easy devil!" Doug looked at Long Yichen with a smile and joked, "Master Long has a good attitude. You have done so many evil things, but you still want to be a god? Even I, who punish evil and promote good, dare not think so."

"..." Long Yichen choked and changed the subject, "Senior, tell me the truth, are you sure you can deal with a Qi Refiner?"

"Master Long, just be at ease. As long as the person coming here is not a Jindan Zhenren, a mere Qi Refiner will not be able to escape this Soul Calming Bottle."

Douge patted the soul-soothing bottle in his hand with pride, "The magic weapon recognizes its master. The longer I hold it, the more I can feel its mystery. Either Prince Duan has great ambitions and wants to use this bottle to kill the king and his father, or the monk who gave Prince Duan advice deceived him.

This bottle is definitely not as simple as affecting people's fate. I suspect it is most likely a magic weapon. The evil cultivator used the name of Prince Duan to refine this treasure for himself.

Yesterday, so many people died in vain in Longliu Villa, and their souls were all absorbed by the bottle. This magic weapon must have become perfect. I feel that its effect should be more than just the transportation of hundreds of ghosts, it should have more wonderful uses.

Now I don’t know how to practice, so I can’t bring out its full power, but with it, I can deal with ordinary Qi Refiners without much problem…”

Gulp!

Long Yichen looked at the soul-calming bottle in Doug's hand, swallowed softly, and felt so heartbroken that he felt like bleeding. Damn it, this bottle should be mine!

…

At nightfall.

The county magistrate who was guarding the murder scene had long since left Longliu Villa and huddled in a carriage on the side of the road for a short rest. The bailiffs lit a bonfire in the middle of the road and continued to seal off the scene.

Further out, there were people from various families who had heard the news rushing to collect the bodies, but since Longliu Villa was related to Prince Duan, no one was so blind as to force their way in. The person was already dead, and offending Prince Duan would be more than worth it.

Everyone was eagerly waiting for someone from Prince Duan's Mansion or the prefect to come and take over the case.

…

During the day, Long Yichen, Ding Chang and others took turns to rest.

Only Doug was paying close attention to Longliu Villa, but he was not idle either.

For most of the day, Duger was instilling the concepts of "kings, princes, generals, and ministers" into Long Yichen and others, leading them on the path of rebellion and brushing up his persuasion attribute.

Of course, Duger also asked Long Yichen a lot about the Crescent Moon Kingdom’s top leaders and the cultivation world.

Long Yichen had a very clear understanding of official affairs, but most of the things in the cultivation world were vague.

after all.

He was just a warrior, and had basically no dealings with Qigong practitioners. What he knew about the cultivation world he heard from the dignitaries.

During the one-day conversation, the only useful information Doug obtained was that it was impossible for mortals to succeed in seeking immortality. Practitioners had their own temples, which were remote from the world and did not open the gates to immortality, so mortals could not even find them.

…

Doug and others didn't have to wait too long.

Halfway through the second update.

Three sword lights suddenly came from far away and fell directly into Longliu Villa from the air.

Doug had the best eyesight, but he could only see their appearance clearly after they landed.

Two men and one woman.

The leader was a middle-aged man with a long beard, wearing a blue robe, carrying a long sword on his back, and his face was solemn. Behind him was a man and a woman who looked to be in their early twenties. The man wore a black robe and the woman wore a green skirt. They also each carried a sword on their back.

When they came, there were three sword lights, and they did not use the sword-flying technique that involved stepping on swords like in the first alien battlefield.

Doug sighed secretly, and his body merged with the sword light, flying on the sword. Perhaps this was the orthodox sword-flying technique. Flying on the sword like riding a skateboard was really a bit low.

The moment they appeared, Duger quietly released the power of darkness, hiding Long Yichen and others in the darkness.

Long Yichen and the others didn't know that Duger had hidden them. They kept their mouths tightly shut, not daring to breathe, for fear that their breathing would alarm the Qi Refiner over there. The sword light came in an instant, and three more people came, which scared them to death.

Doug ignored them and focused on the three Qi Refiners from Longliu Villa.

…

Ugh! The young woman seemed to have never seen such a scene before. After landing, she couldn't help but retch, and then covered her mouth with her hands.

"Junior sister, why don't you go out first. Master and I are enough here." The young man's face was not very good, but he still comforted his junior sister with concern.

"No need." The sister looked at him, shook her head stubbornly, and forced her eyes away from the corpse. She asked, "Master, was it the evil spirit who killed so many people?"

The middle-aged man did not speak, but frowned as he inspected Longliu Villa. Then, his eyes fell on the yellow talismans under the eaves. He stretched out his hand and several yellow talismans fell into his palm.

"Master, what is this talisman?" asked the young man.

"Soul-calming talisman, soul-guiding talisman, soul-trapping talisman." The middle-aged man looked at the talisman in his hand, then at the corpses around him, and frowned even more tightly, "Ziming, Ziyun, Longliu Villa is probably not as simple as we imagined."

"It's not a demon, it's an evil cultivator?" The little sister named Ziyun widened her eyes, "No wonder so many people died, I didn't even sense a trace of the breath of the living soul."

"But isn't this Prince Duan's manor?" the young man asked, "Master, how could Prince Duan be related to evil cultivators?"

"That's why I said things are getting complicated." The middle-aged man snorted, and with a shake of his hand, three talismans spontaneously ignited without wind and turned into ashes in the blink of an eye. He glanced at the ground and said, "Let's go. So many people have died. Let's see what this evil cultivator is up to."

"Master, we came out to kill evil spirits in troubled times. Isn't it a bad idea to get involved in the affairs of the crown prince?" The young man said hesitantly, "What if Prince Duan takes the throne in the future..."

"He colluded with evil cultivators. Once the news spreads, he will never be able to take the throne in this life." The middle-aged man said, "Moreover, Longliu Villa doesn't look like the work of evil cultivators. It is very likely that there are demons involved.

Demons and evil spirits are not familiar with the art of cultivation. Perhaps the magic weapon used by the evil cultivator is still in the villa. It has absorbed so many resentful souls, and its power should not be underestimated. It is better for us to have this magic weapon than for the evil cultivator to take it and harm the world."
