I Killed Gods and Demons in Song Dynasty

Chapter 140: Eradicating Evil
During Li Qingyun's trip to Wuyou Cave, he not only did not encounter much danger, but also gained a lot. He obtained the "Qiongqi" golden tablet and also accepted Li Yingqi, a powerful man in the fifth realm.

But every grievance has its perpetrator, and although the demon king Jiao who wanted to deal with him has been killed, Xiong Mingda, the owner of Xiaoyao Tower who invited him, has not been punished yet.

This guy is at least an accomplice, and putting aside personal grudges, Xiaoyao Tower is trafficking in human beings and harming children and women. Getting rid of them is doing justice and eliminating harm for the people.

But Li Yingqi shook his head somewhat embarrassedly:
"I don't know what Xiaoyao Tower is..."

That's right, this guy's memory has been erased a lot, and under the influence of the "chaos" power, he has been living in a daze all these years. How could he know what's going on between the gangs in Bianliang City... Li Qingyun reflected on himself and suddenly had an idea.

He recalled the image of Xiong Mingda that he had seen on the wanted poster of Kaifeng Prefecture, then he used the seventy-two transformations of the Nine Revolutions Yuan Gong, wiped his face with his hand, and his muscles and bones changed instantly, and he immediately became a different person.

He had dark skin, thin cheeks, and two sharp triangular eyes that looked around with a chilling coldness. There were three tufts of goatee on his chin, and he looked exactly like Xiong Mingda, the owner of Xiaoyao Tower.

"Have you seen this person? Where does he usually move around?"

Li Yingqi's eyes were filled with shock:
"This is not an illusion, it is a method of truly changing one's skin, flesh and bones. Master, you actually possess such magical powers?"

Li Qingyun was secretly pleased by the praise from this fifth-level expert, but he remained calm and said:
"It's just a trifle. This is Xiong Mingda, the chief of Xiaoyao Tower. Have you seen him?"

Li Yingqi shook his head, his eyes clear but confused:

"I seem to have seen it before, but I also seem not to have seen it before. I can't remember it..."

Li Qingyun had expected this and was not disappointed, but he was not discouraged either. There were more than a dozen big and small leaders registered in Kaifeng Prefecture by Xiaoyao Tower. As long as he found one, he could follow the clues and find out the whereabouts of the other senior leaders.

Then he wiped his face with his hand, changed into another person and asked:
"Have you seen this person?"

Li Yingqi still shook his head.

In this way, Li Qingyun continued to change, and finally on the seventh time, Li Yingqi's confused eyes suddenly lit up and said:
"I know this guy, I've seen him!"

Li Qingyun was delighted, because the person he transformed into was the sixth in command of Xiaoyao Tower, "Fire Eye Judge" Xing Zifang.

According to Kaifeng Prefecture, this guy was in Xiaoyao Tower, and his special job was to train the kidnapped and sold decent women to various brothels to make huge profits. He was an unforgivable criminal.

Li Qingyun changed back to his original appearance and smiled slightly:
"Let's go, take me to find him."

……

Deep in Wuyou Cave, a hidden underground passage was artificially dug out, with narrow and steep steps.

The air here became increasingly cold and damp. On the rough and uneven walls around, there were a few dim copper lamps hanging, emitting weak light, barely illuminating the road ahead.

At the end of the stairs was a half-open heavy iron door covered with rust.

Behind the iron gate was a long corridor with dozens of rooms of different sizes lined up on both sides of the corridor. Heavy chains were hung on each door, and low crying and groaning sounds could be heard from behind the door.

At the end of the corridor, there was a spacious hall with shabby carpets on the floor and the air was filled with a musty and dirty smell.

There are still bloodstains and scratches on the walls, and various torture instruments scattered on the ground, recording the pain and despair experienced by countless women here.

Xing Zifang was leaning on a huge armchair, hugging two charming beauties on his left and right. In his deep sunken eye sockets, a pair of slightly red eyes emitted an obscene light. He greedily glanced at the trembling women in front of him as if he was looking at goods.

"Well, the quantity of goods this time is a little less, but the appearance is still good. I will train them well and sell them for a higher price later."

He took a sip of wine, stretched out his big hands to grope the plump beauty beside him, and absentmindedly gave orders to his attendants.

At this moment, one of his men came over and said:

"Master Xing, someone is here and wants to see you outside."

Xing Zifang's eyes immediately became alert and he shouted loudly:
"Close the door and don't see anyone! Don't you understand this rule?"

Xing Zifang has been doing such unscrupulous business in Bianliang City and has been able to get away with it until now. Not only is he an extremely skilled martial artist, but he is also a very cautious person. He has been hiding in Wuyou Cave for years, never seeing the sun, and never seeing anyone who doesn't know his background.

This place is his secret hiding place, and the people around him are all his confidants. Except for a few core members of Xiaoyao Tower, no one knows its location, and no one will come to visit.

Xing Zifang instinctively sensed the danger and quickly stood up, not even caring about the two beauties beside him, and tried to find a tunnel to leave.

But at this moment, someone outside the door said:
"Master Xing, how are you?"

In the time it took to say a word, the voice had come from far away and quickly reached the door.

The two trusted henchmen were about to close the door, but a hand gently held it back, preventing it from moving at all.

Before Xing Zifang could escape, he had to turn his head and saw a middle-aged man standing at the door. He had green eyes and golden pupils, and was tall. His exposed skin was faintly scaly and had a metallic luster.

He recognized the man immediately and was startled.

Isn’t this Mr. Zhao whom I met before?

Xing Zifang was not familiar with Mr. Zhao, but he knew that he was a big customer of Xiaoyao Tower. A considerable number of the young and middle-aged men they had abducted in the past few months had been bought by him.

Mr. Zhao paid promptly and never bought on credit. He was also an unfathomable master. It was obvious that the power behind him was terrifyingly strong. Even the boss, Xiong Mingda, treated them with great respect and did not dare to neglect them in the slightest.

Xing Zifang suddenly remembered that this old customer had made an exception and come to see the boss the night before, hoping that they could do him a small favor and, in the name of Xiaoyao Tower, lead Li Qingyun from the Changle Gang to a specific location in Wuyou Cave.

This kind of thing is not worth mentioning to Xiaoyao Tower, so the boss naturally agreed. Now I heard that it has been done, and the Changle Gang has also replied, saying that Li Qingyun will definitely be there. Why is he coming to the door again now?

Besides, how did he know my hiding place?

Xing Zifang was very confused in his heart, but he remained calm on the surface and asked;
"So it's Mr. Zhao, how did you find your way here?"

This "Mr. Zhao" was naturally Li Qingyun's transformation.

After he got Xing Zifang's location from Li Yingqi, in order to avoid making too much noise and alerting the enemy, he did not rush in to kill them. Instead, he transformed himself into the appearance of a dragon demon and investigated the whereabouts of the core of Xiaoyao Tower. He wanted to use this breakthrough to catch these human traffickers in one fell swoop.

Of course, if this plan doesn't work, he doesn't mind using force to torture Xing Zifang. Seeing that the other party knew Jiao Mo, Li Qingyun pretended to be angry and said:

"Humph, I asked your boss to invite Li Qingyun over, why hasn't he responded yet? Tell me where Xiong Mingda is, I want to go ask him in person!"

Xing Zifang's eyes flickered, he looked at Li Qingyun suspiciously, and said politely:
"Xing doesn't know the position of the boss either, so I can't help you."

Li Qingyun pretended to shout:
"Asshole! Is this how you do business at Xiaoyao Tower? If you can't even handle such a small matter, how can I trust you in the future?"

Faced with the questioning, Xing Zifang could only smile and say:
"Mr. Zhao, calm down. We have received a reply from the Changle Gang, saying that Li Qingyun will definitely arrive today. I think there may be some problems on his side. Please be patient and wait a little longer. Maybe Li Qingyun is already on the way."

Good fellow, he is both a coward and cautious. No wonder he is still alive and well after being on the wanted list for so many years... Li Qingyun muttered to himself. Seeing that the other party was so cunning and his words were flawless, he sneered and said:
"That's fine. Go check for me where Li Qingyun is now. I won't leave until I see him today."

As he said this, he simply pulled up a chair, sat down with his arms and legs spread out to block the door, and looked at Xing Zifang provocatively.

Seeing Li Qingyun pressing forward step by step and being unreasonable, Xing Zifang also got angry:
"Mr. Zhao is so unreasonable. Is he deliberately trying to make things difficult for Xiaoyao Tower?"

Li Qingyun spat and said contemptuously:
"I'm going to make things difficult for you, so what do you think?"

As he said this, he suddenly jumped up and threw a punch.

Xing Zifang didn't expect that the other party would really tear his face off and start fighting as soon as he said it. Before he could react, Li Qingyun's powerful fist hit his shoulder!
No bells and whistles, just pure speed and power.

Xing Zifang's shoulder bone was cracked and collapsed, and his well-maintained white skin was torn into a bloody mess the moment the fist hit his body.

"I……"

Xing Zifang was a Buddhist body cultivator with a strong body. Although he suffered severe injuries and was in unbearable pain, it was not fatal.

Just as he was about to shout for help, Li Qingyun had already grabbed the bun on the back of his head and pressed him face down to the ground.

A big hole was immediately smashed into the bluestone ground, and Xing Zifang's mouth was blocked tightly, so he couldn't make any sound.

The situation suddenly changed. Xing Zifang's confidants in the room were so frightened that they ran away without caring about the danger of their master.

At this moment, a shadow flashed in the dark, and Li Yingqi emerged like a poisonous snake, leaping up as swiftly as a civet cat. He punched out in succession in a few jumps and killed these minions one by one without making any noise.

It turned out that he had been hiding in the vicinity, waiting for Li Qingyun to make a move so as to cut off his retreat.

Li Qingyun casually cut Xing Zifang's tendons in his hands and feet, picked him up like a dead dog and asked:
"Where is Xiong Mingda? How do you people from Xiaoyao Tower contact each other?"

Xing Zifang kept screaming and begging for mercy:
"Mr. Zhao, please spare me! Mr. Xiong has always been cautious. He is the only one who has contacted us. We don't even know where he is!"

Seeing that he didn't seem to be lying, Li Qingyun drew out his precious sword to break evil, cut off Xing Zifang's head and wrapped it in a cloth.

[Remaining Qi and blood: five thousand five hundred and sixty-six souls].

Tsk tsk, he is only a cultivator at the third level, this amount of energy and blood is not even enough to fill the gaps between his teeth.

Li Qingyun was somewhat disappointed. He threw the head to Li Yingqi, looked at the women around him who were shaking with fear, and pointed his finger:
"Send the head to Kaifeng Prefecture, and take these women back as well, and let them deal with them."

Li Yingqi nodded, found some clothes in the room and put them on, then led his people away.

After he left, Li Qingyun changed back to his original appearance and started searching around.

Although he did not get Xing Zifang's confession, he was not helpless.

As long as he can find any items related to Xiong Mingda here, he can directly use his divination skills to calculate the other party's hiding place.

Sure enough, not long after, Li Qingyun found a note on Xing Zifang's body that had not yet been destroyed.

This was used by Xiong Mingda to convey information to his subordinates. Li Qingyun read it and found that it was all some business matters, so he held it in his hand and activated his divination power.

After a moment, the thick black mist in his eyes dissipated, and the corners of his mouth lifted slightly, outlining a faint smile.

……

At night, in a dilapidated tile-roofed house on Refugee Street, a secret tunnel suddenly opened, revealing the figure of Li Qingyun.

He was covered in blood, but his eyes were bright and full of excitement.

After using his divination skills to find Xiong Mingda's hiding place, Li Qingyun first transformed into Xing Zifang and approached him, killing him unexpectedly. He then used the same trick again, using his divination skills to find out the hiding places of several other leaders one by one, and killed them one by one.

The heads of Xiaoyao Tower could only communicate with Xiong Mingda in a one-way manner and conceal their whereabouts from each other. This secretive form of organization made it extremely difficult for them to be wiped out by the government.

Even if one or two heads of the family are eliminated, no effective clues can be obtained, and the location of other leaders cannot be found, and they cannot be eradicated. Instead, it will alert the enemy and make the entire organization more vigilant, causing them to temporarily lay low and lie dormant.

Therefore, Kaifeng Prefecture's several actions all ended in failure.

However, when facing Li Qingyun, a powerful assassin who not only had high martial arts skills but also possessed the ability of divination, seventy-two transformations and stealth, Xiaoyao Tower exposed its fatal weakness of being unable to support each other, and was eventually defeated one by one.

After several hours of fierce fighting, Li Qingyun, by his own strength, destroyed most of the Xiaoyao Tower and killed more than a dozen leaders.

And once Kaifeng Prefecture takes over the remaining finishing work, it is very likely that the entire Xiaoyao Tower will be uprooted and this cunning and evil organization will be completely eliminated.

In any case, the human trafficking business in Bianliang City will definitely be paralyzed for a while, and the lives of ordinary people will be much better.

In addition to eliminating harm for the people, Li Qingyun also gained a lot of qi and blood power.

[Remaining Qi and blood: 11,098 souls].

He had already accumulated enough energy to upgrade to the fourth level of "Secret Whisperer" and was ready to be promoted tonight...
