I Killed Gods and Demons in Song Dynasty

Chapter 50: Divination Again
Li Qingyun returned to his residence, hid the silver under his pillow, and could not wait to investigate the woman who was suspected to be a member of the Wu Shi sect.

He did not directly try to divine her identity, because the other party was most likely a warrior of the third realm, and there was a gap in realm between them.

Even if you use supernatural powers for divination, you may not be able to get too many details, and it will also consume a lot of energy and blood.

Li Qingyun chose to divine the two puppets that were previously auctioned at Xuanwu Pavilion, because he deliberately left his own breath on the puppets to facilitate his subsequent actions.

"The whereabouts of the two puppets at the trade fair..."

He silently recited the words he had prepared long ago, sacrificed his energy and blood with ease, and immediately appeared in the majestic temple.

To his right, a giant eyeball projected a lifelike vision.

In the darkness of the night, a young girl in black was seen climbing walls and running fast through the city of Bianliang, and soon she arrived in front of a big house.

The tall iron gate was silent, revealing majesty and solemnity; under the moonlight, the glazed tiles sparkled with a cold light.

Under the eaves, there is a huge golden plaque with three characters inscribed on it:
"Tian...bo...mansion..."

……

Tianbo Mansion!
Yang family!

When Li Qingyun saw this, he was shocked and immediately stopped divination.

The Yang family is powerful and has many masters. Mu Guiying, the Marquis of Hun Tian, ​​is a powerful man of the fifth realm and one of the top combat forces in Bianliang City.

Such a big family has a deep foundation. If he was accidentally discovered using divination to spy on the interior of Tianbo Mansion, he would definitely be in trouble.

Now that the whereabouts of the puppet had been determined, Li Qingyun breathed a sigh of relief, turned over on the bed, rested his head on his arms, and began to analyze and reason.

Since the girl in black is from Tianbo Mansion and can carry precious gold tablets around with her, and can ask Xuanwu Pavilion to pay a thousand taels of silver with just a random handwritten note, she must be of a very noble status.

Well, judging from her age, she is probably Yang Jinhua, the daughter of Marquis Hun Tian.

If that was the case, given her identity, she might not be a member of the Wu Shi Sect. Her purpose in buying the pair of puppets was probably the same as mine, to trace their origins, and her actions were probably approved by Mu Guiying.

Otherwise, how could a warrior at the mere third level possibly escape the gaze of the fifth level "God of Nature"?

This means that the Tianbo Mansion is most likely aware of the existence of the Wu Shi Sect and is investigating it in secret... Well, although it is not convenient for me to use divination to confirm this speculation, it should be almost certain... Li Qingyun muttered secretly in his heart.

Thinking of this, he seemed to feel more at ease, because the Yang family was very powerful. If they also joined the team to deal with the Wu Shi Sect, the chances of eradicating the evil would be greatly increased.

But he changed his mind and thought that he had cheated Miss Yang out of a thousand taels of silver tonight. He wondered if Marshal Mu would hold a grudge against him, and he felt a little scared again.

With the power of Tianbo Mansion, it is not difficult to find out his identity. The easiest way is to go to Xuanwu Pavilion to inquire about the list of people participating in the trade fair tonight. With a little attention, he can analyze it. But the Yang family may not mobilize a large force for such a small matter.

Forget it, buddy, I earned this money by my own ability, why are you bothering me?
……

He put these thoughts behind him, calmed himself, and began a new round of divination.

This time, he silently chanted and meditated in his heart:

"The origins of the two puppets at the trade fair..."

Above the grey mist, the scene changed like water waves, revealing a hidden courtyard shrouded in darkness.

The night was as dark as ink, and the courtyard was shrouded in a thick fog. The twisted ancient trees were like monster tentacles, swaying in the breeze, and the air was filled with the smell of decay and dampness.

Du Huairen, dressed in brocade clothes and long boots, knelt on one knee in the middle of the courtyard. Opposite him was an ancient black well. A cold light was faintly emitting from the mouth of the well, flickering and jumping as if it had life.

"Coming?" Along with a hoarse and low male voice, a figure slowly rose from the well. He was of medium build, wearing a huge hood, and his face could not be seen clearly.

Seeing this person, Du Huairen said respectfully:

"Boss, I have completed the task, I hope you can help me get promoted..."

The hooded man sneered:
"Are you really ready to take that step? With your aptitude, the possibility of losing control and falling into depravity when you break through is quite high. If you are not careful, you will be doomed. It would be better for you to manage Xuanwu Pavilion for me honestly. Isn't being a safe and wealthy man enough?"

Du Huairen lowered his head deeply and answered with preparation:

"I... I won't give up... I've tasted that kind of extraordinary power, and I want more..."

The hooded man nodded slightly when he heard this:

"In that case, according to my promise, I will help you break through the bottleneck and become a 'psychic' of the third realm, and I will give you the complete method of 'reciting the heart formula', which is enough for you to practice to the peak of the third realm.

"Of course, whether you can really get to that point depends on your luck. I'm just a guide.

“Before the ceremony, you’d better prepare your funeral and then come to me.

"Besides that, I have another thing for you to do."

As he spoke, he took out a pair of strange puppets, handed them over and said:
"Sell this at the trade fair tomorrow night. Keep an eye out for buyers. Remember who is interested in this and report back to me."

Du Huairen nodded and took a step forward to take the puppet.

Following his gaze, Li Qingyun saw the long and narrow face under the hood.

A big hooked nose, abnormal grey eyes, and a tuft of long black hair on the mole below the ear...

……

Hiss!
Li Qingyun was frightened and suddenly woke up from his meditation, with cold sweat on his forehead.

It was that horse-faced man! The Wushi Cultist who had planted the spiritual seed for him and almost killed Lu Zhen with the "Gate to the Fantasy World"!

He is actually the boss of Xuanwu Pavilion!
I caught you!
Li Qingyun didn't expect that he could find out the identity of the horse-faced man so easily. His blood boiled and he wanted to immediately bring the people from Kaifeng Prefecture to Xuanwu Pavilion for a raid.

But he quickly forced himself to calm down and think carefully about countermeasures.

The one we have to deal with now is a "Spiritual Wizard" of the fourth realm. Not only does he have extremely high cultivation, but his methods are also treacherous and changeable, making him hard to guard against.

In order to capture him, Kaifeng Prefecture would have to at least dispatch a master of Xu Liang and Bai Yunrui's level, and more than one would have to be sent. Otherwise, if the capture failed and the enemy was alerted, it would be even more difficult to have such a good opportunity again in the future.

But an operation of this scale cannot be carried out by a temporary non-staff member like him with just empty words and a simple talk. He can't just tell others that he is the agent of an unknown god and used his divination skills to see the horse-faced man.

In that case, it is not certain who will be arrested.

Li Qingyun thought about it and decided to wait until tomorrow when he and Bai Yunrui visited the Wei family, and then guide him to investigate the Xuanwu Pavilion indirectly. As long as he could collect even a little bit of evidence that they were related to the Wu Shi Sect, he could justifiably send out all the elite troops of Kaifeng Prefecture to capture all the Wu Shi followers in the Xuanwu Pavilion.

Well, more haste makes waste, and the worst thing to do when doing things like this is to act rashly and hastily. Anyway, Xuanwu Pavilion is a big family with a lot of assets, and they won't be able to get away anytime soon, so it's better to plan carefully.

Finally, he took out the note written by Wei Xiuwen and divined the situation of the father and son again. He was immediately shocked...
