Chapter 124 The Path of Black and White (Part 3)

Light rain on the 29th.

Such weather is quite rare.

In Changping, there are many cloudy days, but very few rainy days.

The cultivators in the city were as usual.

Leaving Yangwu Academy, he followed his own duties and headed to various locations outside the county town.

The area Song Yan is to inspect today is Chengjia Village.

However, before leaving the county town, he still came to the spirit stele outside Lianheng Tower to confirm Cheng Yu's whereabouts for the day once again.

On the edge of the memorial stele, Cheng Yu's name remains in its original position.

There were no changes.

As it should be.

Today, the elders should all be aware of the matter concerning the ambush and killing of the demonic cultivators and the Yellow Springs cultivators.

Chengjia Village was the center of the battlefield, while Caoyuan Township was the furthest from Chengjia Village.

Cheng Yu's parents, of course, would no longer bother sending their child elsewhere.

His expression was indifferent as he glanced at the names of the people around Cheng Yu.

A bunch of raccoon dogs.

"If you survive, it means your crimes do not warrant death."

“If you die, it means you have committed many evil deeds. It’s better for you to go down and atone for your sins sooner.”

He turned and left the county town.

In Chengjia Village, everything is as usual.

Song Yan sat cross-legged on the hillside outside the village, under an old pine tree at the fork in the mountain.

Today, he doesn't need to do anything.

Just wait and it will be fine.

On this day, many people are also waiting for a certain moment to arrive.

Night fell quickly in Changping.

The crescent moon hung like a hook, and the withered trees surrounding the Abyss of Corpses rustled in the cold wind and drizzle.

Lu Qin concealed himself in the darkness and slowly walked towards Chengjia Village.

At this moment, the disciples of the six major sects are changing shifts, which is also the time when patrols are at their weakest.

Of course, these fools from the six major sects couldn't have discovered their identities in the first place.

Otherwise, Huangquan Dao wouldn't have been able to hide Jin Tianya here for more than half a year without anyone noticing.

Three miles away, Chengjia Village was lit by a few scattered lights.

"If the Asura Path wanted to take someone away, it would probably only take the time it takes to drink a cup of tea."

"Otherwise, if we attract the attention of disciples from the six major sects, we'll be in deep trouble."

Lu Qin believed he was safe and sound; the only question was whether he could find an opportunity to take the lion's share for himself.

The thought of witnessing the Asura Path and the Yellow Springs Path suffer heavy losses in a moment brought a sinister smile to his lips.

With that thought in mind, he took a few steps closer under the cover of darkness, his eyes fixed on a certain low house.

wow...

The night was quiet, with only the sound of heavy rain falling.

The rain is getting heavier.

When Lü Qin realized something was wrong, it wasn't because Chengjia Village hadn't made any noise for a long time.

Instead, he suddenly realized that the heavy rain had actually penetrated his protective amulet and was hitting his clothes.

squeak-

The wooden door of the low house, which was lit up, was slowly pushed open.

A young female cultivator dressed in a blue and white Taoist robe slowly walked out of the house, her gaze directed towards where Lü Qin was.

"not good!"

In the shadows of night, Lü Qin transformed into a streak of blood, attempting to flee the place.

bell--

A bell rang softly, and a torrent of water vapor erupted with a roar!
The spiritual energy transformed into a tide, like rain that kept guests.

In the heavy rain, Lü Qin's figure was forcibly pulled back.

Now that things have come to this, he is fully aware that he has fallen into the trap set by the six major sects.

but……

What merit do I possess to deserve being suppressed by a Foundation Establishment cultivator?

To be honest, Yu Zhen was also completely baffled.

Based on the clues provided by Song Yan, and the speculations of many elders.

Tonight should be the time for the Yellow Springs Path demonic cultivators and the Seed Demonic Path demonic cultivators to meet.

They've even made preparations, including those involving Foundation Establishment stage demonic cultivators.

That's why they dispatched her, a Foundation Establishment cultivator, to oversee the situation.

But so far, only one person has shown up.

"Could it be that the cultivators of the Yellow Springs Path have already detected the movements of the six major sects?"

Seeing that the other party had been waiting for a long time and there was still no sign of them, she finally made her move.

The spiritual energy mixed with the raindrops, condensing into countless fine chains that wrapped around Lü Qin's body.

"In the prime of life..."

"You bastard!!!"

Could he be an informant from one of the six major sects?!

Looking back now, that bastard's every move was full of mistakes.

How could I have fallen for this?!
With a flick of her wrist, Yu Zhen caused all the spiritual rain chains to slowly tighten.

Since the opponent is only one person and only at the ninth level of Qi Refining, there is naturally no need to worry.

Captured alive would be ideal, of course.

But just as the chains of spirit rain were about to bind him, a sudden change occurred.

Lu Qin suddenly burst into a cloud of blood mist, then transformed into a beam of blood light and fled northeast.

Cong Yuzhen's brows furrowed. As a trapping formation, the Liuke Rain formation did indeed have several weak points during the contraction of the Spirit Rain Chains.

One of the directions this person fled in was...

"This demonic cultivator is proficient in formations?"

Cong Yuzhen was taken aback, then sighed softly.

I wonder what they're regretting.

She gradually withdrew all her spiritual power.

Lu Qin fled swiftly, only to find that the female cultivator was gradually withdrawing the spiritual energy behind him.

A joy in my heart.

Could it be that I escaped from a Foundation Establishment cultivator?!

The disciples of the six sects were indeed all useless fools with no fighting ability.

Even Foundation Establishment cultivators...

sieve.

A streak of azure sword energy flashed across the sky.

The blood mist that drifted through the night sky resembled a fragile bird.

It was instantly pierced and dispersed by the sword light without any hesitation.

The divine thoughts in his mind came to an abrupt halt.

……

Under the same waning moon.

Caoyuan Township.

Several cultivators from the six sects gathered in a courtyard.

The owner of the courtyard was just an ordinary person.

Naturally, they kicked him out.

The cultivator sitting in the center was Cheng Yu.

Even with heightened security, they were still only doing the simplest tasks.

For them, patrols like today's are the most troublesome.

Cheng Yu snorted coldly: "People like this always think that by killing a few demonic cultivators, they are the cream of the crop."

The increased vigilance in Changping has made many powerful young masters of immortal sects extremely hostile towards the name Song Yan.

They were cursing.

"Yes, who doesn't know that demonic cultivators are everywhere in Changping these days? Yet he insists on showing off..."

Several people around him echoed his sentiment.

"Now look what's happened, he's made all the disciples of the six sects play his patrol tricks with them."

Cheng Yu was quite pleased with the flattery from his other disciples.

In fact, with his parents around, he still didn't need to spend much time on important matters in Changping.

They simply wanted to target Song Yan.

Thinking back to the trip to Beiya Mountain, thinking of Sheng Yun, and even Cong Yuzhen's reprimand.

Cheng Yu's gaze was gloomy.

They were just two lowly people from the mountains and countryside...

"Humph……"

Never mind, it's okay.

That despicable woman, Sheng Yun, can't leave the Sheyang Sect no matter what.

Once I have established my foundation, I will definitely find an opportunity to torment and humiliate her in front of her family.

The evil desires in my heart grew stronger and stronger.

"Hey……"

Thinking of this, Cheng Yu unconsciously licked his lips lightly.

Something fell from the eaves of the courtyard.

"Ok?"

In my field of vision, a shadow seemed to be gradually enlarging.

At the same time, the eyes of the surrounding cultivators seemed somewhat dazed.

He looked back.

Suddenly, a figure appeared beside him.

A handsome face filled his entire field of vision.

"Varied……"

However, Sheng Nian did not give Cheng Yu any time to think.

Almost at the same moment, he suddenly raised his hand and thrust out the sword.

There was no feeling of sluggishness.

In an instant, the black blade pierced through Cheng Yu's slightly raised throat from the left front side.

The originally dull blade turned bright red instantly, as if it had been painted with paint.

puff.

Under Cheng Yu's blank, pained, and incredulous gaze, Sheng Nian gently turned the hilt of the horizontal sword.

The blade, encasing flesh and blood, was slowly twisted.

"Uh……"

That chilling sound was exceptionally clear in the otherwise silent courtyard.

……

"Take a deep breath."

Sheng Qing gently patted Cheng Yu's back, like a human mother soothing a baby to a nap.

"Dizziness is normal."
