Goddess Atlas, Starting from the Queen
Chapter 201 Could it be that Commander Mu does not believe that the evil spirit is the culprit?
Based on Lu Ming's experience watching movies and TV dramas in his previous life, people who are living well but suddenly die in a violent accident are most likely to become vengeful spirits.
Those ordinary people who were killed by evil spirits were living well. When they were suddenly killed by evil spirits, some of them were unwilling to accept that they died like that. As long as there was a bit of resentment, they might turn into vengeful spirits and continue to wander in the world.
After hearing Lu Ming's answer, Mu Yunyan hesitated for a moment before finally saying, "Alright, this humble official will take Your Majesty there now."
Lu Ming and Su Wanyun then boarded the carriage, and led by Mu Yunyan, they arrived at Wangjia Village, the closest village to the capital, which had been slaughtered by evil spirits, an hour later.
As soon as Lu Ming's carriage approached Wangjia Village, he sensed the deathly aura emanating from the air.
When the carriage slowly came to a stop at the entrance of Wangjia Village, Lu Ming and Su Wanyun got off the carriage.
Lu Ming closed his eyes and quietly sensed the deathly aura in the air. Seeing that Lu Ming had closed his eyes and did not speak, Mu Yunyan, who was about to ask Lu Ming which direction he wanted to investigate, shut her mouth.
After a moment, Lu Ming opened his eyes and asked, "I heard that it was Commander Mu who first noticed the evil spirit that broke into the capital?"
Mu Yunyan said, "Yes."
Lu Ming asked with some curiosity, "How did Commander Mu detect that evil spirit entering the capital?"
Mu Yunyan raised the sword in her hand, "This humble official can sense the aura emanating from evil spirits through this sword."
Lu Ming asked, "In the village where the evil spirits slaughtered you, did you sense any other evil spirits?"
Mu Yunyan replied, "No."
Lu Ming said, "So, the evil spirit I eliminated was the culprit behind the massacre of the village?"
Mu Yunyan fell silent and did not respond.
She hoped so, but they hadn't found the heart that the evil spirit had taken, so they couldn't be sure that the evil spirit was the culprit.
Of course, the most important point is that she sensed the aura of that evil spirit in the last village that was slaughtered. No one can say for sure whether that evil spirit happened to pass by that slaughtered village and was then sensed by her.
As for why she didn't sense the aura of other evil spirits, she didn't know either. Of course, it's not uncommon for evil spirits to hide their aura. According to the books left behind by the old Xiaoyao King, some special evil spirits can hide their aura, and when the strength of some evil spirits reaches a certain level, they can also hide their aura.
If it really is an evil spirit hiding its aura, Mu Yunyan is more willing to believe the first scenario. If it is the second scenario, then the evil spirit that massacred the village must be incredibly powerful. It is probably something that even their Zhenling Guard cannot deal with.
Seeing that Mu Yunyan did not respond, Lu Ming said, "Could it be that Commander Mu does not believe that evil spirit is the culprit?"
Mu Yunyan did not admit it directly, but only said, "We are still investigating."
Lu Ming said with a smile, "It seems that Commander Mu really doesn't believe that the massacre of the village was done by that evil spirit."
At this point, Lu Ming walked into the village, asking as he went, "Were there any distinctive features on those dead villagers?"
Mu Yunyan replied, "Their hearts have all been removed."
Lu Ming then asked, "Did the Zhenling Guards find where their hearts are located?"
Mu Yunyan replied, "Not yet."
Lu Ming continued, "Wasn't that evil spirit that attacked the Prince of Xiaoyao's mansion also inside its belly?"
Mu Yunyan said, "No."
Lu Ming said, "No wonder you couldn't confirm that the evil spirit was the culprit behind the massacre of the village." Clearly, the evil spirit that massacred the village had a specific purpose: to rip out people's hearts.
But after it removes the heart, it can't just not eat it, otherwise why would it remove a human heart?
Of course, the evil spirit may have used the villagers' hearts for other purposes, but all of this can only be determined after the Town Spirit Guard finds those people's hearts.
When it comes to evil spirits, the Spirit Guards always prepare for the worst.
Lu Ming walked along the main road of Wangjia Village until he reached the depths of the village. Just then, he suddenly discovered a strong aura of yin energy in a courtyard.
Lu Ming wondered to himself, "Could there be a vengeful spirit in this family's yard?"
Without hesitation, Lu Ming walked directly towards the courtyard of the house in front of him. The gate to the courtyard had been damaged, and it looked like it had been damaged by the claws of some kind of animal.
Lu Ming glanced at the scene before entering the courtyard, and Su Wanyun and Mu Yunyan quickly followed.
Mu Yunyan asked curiously, "What has Your Majesty discovered?"
Lu Ming didn't speak. He sensed the Yin energy in the courtyard again. This Yin energy was flowing and becoming increasingly dense.
Lu Ming then said to Mu Yunyan, "Commander Mu, no matter what you see later, you are not allowed to take action without my order."
Lu Ming was afraid that he would be cleaved in two by Mu Yunyan's sword as soon as he summoned the vengeful spirit.
Hearing Lu Ming's words, Mu Yunyan was stunned. Did he mean that something was going to happen here later?
Could there be some evil spirit here?
Thinking of this, Mu Yunyan frowned, immediately gripped her sword tightly, and prepared for battle. However, she still said, "This humble official will obey Your Majesty's orders."
As soon as Mu Yunyan finished speaking, Lu Ming gathered all his spiritual energy at his fingertips and then used the Summoning Spell.
The next moment, streaks of blood-red light emanated from Lu Ming's fingertips. Seeing this, Mu Yunyan was stunned again. What kind of immortal technique was this?
How can I give her a bad feeling?
The next moment, the sky above the courtyard where they were located darkened, and a cold wind began to blow.
The well-informed Mu Yunyan immediately realized that there was indeed an evil spirit in the courtyard, and she drew her long sword without hesitation.
Just then, the doors and windows of the rooms in the courtyard began to bang loudly. After a while, a terrifying scream came from inside the room, which made the accompanying royal guards break out in a cold sweat. However, considering that their king was an immortal, they calmed themselves down.
The screams inside the room grew louder and louder. Suddenly, a disheveled woman burst through the door and headed straight for Lu Ming.
Upon seeing this, Mu Yunyan quickly stepped in front of Lu Ming, "Your Majesty, be careful!"
Lu Ming glanced speechlessly at Mu Yunyan in front of him, then said indifferently, "Step aside, General Mu, have you forgotten what I just said?"
This……
Mu Yunyan then realized that Lu Ming's strength seemed to be even greater than hers. If even Lu Ming couldn't deal with the evil spirit, then she probably couldn't either.
Mu Yunyan immediately stepped aside, wanting to see what Lu Ming planned to do.
Soon the evil spirit rushed in front of Lu Ming. Lu Ming flicked his sleeve, and a small tower emitting black energy appeared above the courtyard.
Lu Ming shouted coldly, "Suppress!"
As soon as the words were spoken, the evil spirit was frozen in place, unable to move. (End of Chapter)
