"Aaaa!"
"Brother De?!"
The young man laughed as he watched the actions of the wolf nad De and shook his head. He clenched his fist and...
Boom!
Brother De himself fell to the ground, headless. The young man chuckled, swinging his hand and sheathing his Naless Sword, which shone brightly. The young man raised an eyebrow.
"Hm?"
Ding!
[Naless Sword has evolved!]
[Naless Sword] | [Rank: Legendary (evolving)] | [Description: An extrely sturdy sword. Can return to its owner, consuming Qi. Can split into forty copies and freely change size as long as the user has enough Qi].
"Oh, little one, you've finally evolved! I haven't used you in a long ti!" Xie Qing smiled contentedly: "I'll buy you so excellent sheaths to celebrate! But let's save that for better tis..."
The young man smiled and looked towards the remaining evil spirit nad Cao.
Cao helplessly fell to the ground, bowing so that his forehead touched the ground. He hit his head against the hard floor several tis.
"W-wait, bro. I have a lot of loot, I'll give it to you, just forget about my rudeness? Everyone makes mistakes!" Cao said in panic, speaking so fast he was almost rapping, swallowing the ends of his words: "Well? What do you say?"
"Very kind of you, haha..." Xie Qing smiled, and when he saw a glimr of hope in the evil spirit's eyes, his smile turned into a smirk: "But it's easier if you die. Sorry."
"Eh?"
Cao felt a touch on his head. He tried to lift his head but felt a strong pressure.
"AAAAAAA!"
His loud scream echoed. The evil spirits walking the streets shook their heads. They thought the scream belonged to that person, so they paid no attention.
After a few minutes, Xie Qing erged from the corner, surprising the passersby. One of them called out to him.
"Hey, human, where did those two evil spirits go?"
Xie Qing indifferently looked at this evil spirit and, without answering, went about his business.
"***! What an arrogant guy! Pfft!"
Although the questioning evil spirit felt offended, he... still wanted to live. If this person could kill soone at the peak of Enlightennt, what chance did he have?
Xie Qing had been targeted for theft forty-five tis during this period, which had beco sowhat annoying. So, he lured his victims into an alley and killed them, then stole their mories.
This was a forbidden technique, and in the outside world, he would be condemned for it, but he was on a mission and considered it right to steal mories to better orient himself.
As expected, it turned out to be quite useful.
People in this place were rare, but there were many evil spirits and ghosts within the barrier.
The main organizations in this world were the Hao Dynasty and the Ma Dynasty. Currently, the young man was in the Ma Dynasty.
"The Ma Dynasty... belongs to Ma Lu. They have no taste? What a shitty na," the young man was speechless.
Although these guys called the lands they controlled dynasties, there was nothing but ruins and wastelands here.
Ordinary evil spirits did not possess information that these people ca from the outside world. And that most people here were devilish cultivators from sects or their descendants.
"Interesting. Moreover, this evil wolf spirit heard that the Ma Dynasty and the Hao Dynasty had implented a special regi and stopped every suspicious person," Xie Qing thought and smiled: "Old dogs, not a bad move. But you won't be able to recognize spies. After all, this pill is very powerful."
Thanks to Liu Yang, these pills could provide them with an effect for four years. If that wasn't enough, Xie Qing had three more in reserve. However, only he had such pills, as the other spies were for greater efficiency.
If Xie Qing and the others couldn't achieve anything in four years, they were to send a ssage using a special token that only the young man possessed.
"Hm... these guys are quite a distance from ," Xie Qing thought, taking out the token that only he had: "Their Qi is not contaminated, they are fine. It seems the protective amulets are working properly."
Before the mission, they were equipped with first-class protective amulets, tokens, and armor. The effectiveness was good, so they could resist devilish Qi.
And since Xie Qing hadn't needed to use his amulet yet, that was a great start.
"Let's start with the information... it seems the sects are hiding. The dynasties or whatever they call them are just a way to control the evil spirits that are consud by devilish cultivators. So, they are just livestock."
Fortunately, these two brothers had a connection with an organization in the neighboring city. They were the ones selling evil spirits to devilish cultivators.
"Interesting! Very interesting!"
Xie Qing clenched, then opened his palm, where forty-seven souls of various colors floated. They belonged to evil spirits.
"If I were a devilish cultivator, absorbing these guys would give a small breakthrough, but... sigh. Besides the difficulty of purifying their evil nature, after purification, the small amount of Qi would beco insignificant and negligible."
So, the young man just smiled and clenched his palm, destroying these spirits. In any case, they were just a nuisance, so this was the only right choice.
Soon, Xie Qing left the city. No one stopped him, no one bothered him – he had proven his strength, and in this place, strength was everything.
The neighboring city was a hundred miles away, quite a distance. However, with Xie Qing's physical abilities, he accelerated and covered this distance in two days.
"Ugh, what a stench!"
Pinching his nose, Xie Qing passed through the gates. This city was like a dump, with lots of trash, corpses, and filth on the streets. The city's residents looked as if they had lost their souls. Cries and sobs could be heard sowhere.
Every scene was a nightmare – this place was an ideal description of hell with a minimal budget.
The only impressive thing about this place was the very dense negative karma. One could only imagine how many beings had been killed for such strong resentnt to linger in the air.
According to the wolf's mories, this organization sold evil spirits. Moreover, this was not considered illegal; on the contrary, it was secretly supported by the Ma Dynasty and its officials.
"Interesting. These evil spirits think this organization is illegal. On the surface, the authorities try to fight them, but in reality, it's just a one-man show!" Xie Qing smiled, understanding the politics of devilish cultivators: "Smart! They breed evil spirits like livestock, consu them, and beco stronger!
Moreover, by arranging massacres, they increase the likelihood of new evil spirits being born! Very smart!"
In his opinion, devilish cultivators, following their evil nature, should have exterminated everyone on the first day. But they turned out to be smarter and calr, taking a wait-and-see approach.
Xie Qing wandered around the city for about an hour but could only count ten residents who were evil spirits. For so reason, they all feared him and ran into their houses.
"I'm not cool enough for my travels in the neighboring city to be known. So... they fear people. Devilish cultivators here don't hold back at all, yeah..." the young man smiled, not bothered by the situation.
In any case, he had no intention of interfering in this matter and playing the noble. That way, he would easily reveal his identity, and did he need that? Of course not.
Sitting on a bench, the young man began to observe the city. Everything here was in ruins, the houses looked as if they had been built in ancient tis and had never seen restoration.
Surprisingly, in such conditions, evil spirits even felt better. But what else could be said about beings that are born feeding on evil? Xie Qing expected nothing more from them.
After half an hour, soone approached him from behind. The young man turned his head indifferently. It was a tall man dressed in a business suit. His red hair was neatly combed back, and his cunning green eyes glowed in the darkness. He was neither human nor evil spirit.
"Jiangshi? Hm, no, for a jiangshi, you're too strong. I guess you're a mutated type," Xie Qing said aloud, looking uninterested: "So, what do you want?"
"The master's gaze can see through illusions. Please accept the admiration of this humble jiangshi. You may call Jian He, sir!" The jiangshi smiled and folded his hands in greeting. When he walked, his knees did not bend, so it was more like flying or gliding: "I saw the master sitting alone in this filthy place. I felt ashad that I allowed such a respected person to sit here.
If the master does not mind, I can take you to a more suitable place. Of course, it is entirely up to you."
"Oh?"
Xie Qing smiled and stood up. Although his cultivation level was hidden, his own aura was still impressive. He looked at Jian He.
"Not bad, good manners. And in your place... hm... are there flowers?" Xie Qing asked with a smile.
"The master is too kind. I am just a servant!" Jian He smiled lewdly and replied: "Of course... we have flowers!"
"Then that's great. Will you escort ?"
"It will be my honor!"
Jian He was excited. He was not an important figure in Jianfeng City, so if he brought a devilish cultivator to their business place... he would get a promotion!
Excited, Jian He did not notice Xie Qing's sly smile.
