Chapter 342: Eavesdropping
“Thank you.” A villager clearly said these words with a thick local accent.
From the conversation between the two, Audrey had a general understanding. It looked like the mysterious person was teaching the villagers how to cultivate. However, it was not certain whether the cultivation thod was good or bad.
According to the mysterious person, he could make a breakthrough in a week. Such speed was sothing that even geniuses might not be able to achieve. So how did the mysterious person get the villagers to do it?
There must be sothing fishy going on here.
Audrey already had a rough idea of what was going on. Just as she was about to continue listening, a surge of combat aura suddenly flew out from within and headed straight for Audrey.
Although it was not weak, it was nothing to Audrey. She quickly dodged it.
“Who’s outside?” A gloomy voice ca from inside the house.
Audrey frowned slightly, a hint of displeasure in her eyes. She did not want to show herself at this mont, so she had to leave quickly to avoid the mysterious man’s detection.
However, Audrey did not expect that she could be discovered by the mysterious man even though she had already concealed her aura. From this, it could be seen that the mysterious man was not weak.
The other mbers of the Dragon Slaying Squad were waiting outside. When they saw Audrey co out, they imdiately went forward to welco her.
“Audrey, how are you? Did you run into any danger?” Kate asked anxiously.
“Nothing much. I just got discovered by them and alerted them. They might be more careful in the future.” Audrey shook her head and frowned slightly as she said with so annoyance.
Hearing a hint of self-bla in Audrey’s tone, Klein chuckled and comforted her, “It’s fine as long as you’re alright. We’ll catch them.”
Audrey nodded. She was certain that the villagers were cultivating in a wrong way. However, she still needed to think of a way to eradicate these mysterious people completely.
This was also a headache for Audrey. The villagers and the mysterious people were basically shut-ins. They had no chance to co into contact with each other.
“Yes. When I went in just now, I heard that the mysterious person was teaching the villagers how to cultivate. However, this kind of cultivation is definitely not good. We have to think of a way to wake the villagers up and stop trusting the mysterious person.” Audrey rested for a mont, then, she told them about the current situation.
“Could it be that they are cultivating demonic Qi?” At this mont, Adrian opened his mouth, his tone filled with disbelief.
Hearing this, Audrey frowned. Her understanding of demonic Qi was still limited. How did Adrian know about demonic Qi?
“You know about demonic Qi? How much do you know?” Audrey seed to see hope and imdiately asked.
Adrian was stunned for a mont. His expression turned slightly serious, he said in a low voice, “I don’t know much either. I just happened to read about it in a book in the family. The cultivation of demonic Qi is different from Qi. Other than relying on natural elents, they can also cultivate through animal cores, human essence, and other thods. It’s extrely cruel.”
“People who cultivate demonic Qi tend to have dark auras. They are cold and bloodthirsty. It’s also very likely that they will suffer from Qi deviation.” The more Adrian spoke, the uglier his expression beca.
Audrey had heard of this before, but when she heard it now, she could not help but be shocked. The villagers were just like that.
She did not expect that the mysterious person would turn a normal warrior aura cultivator into soone who cultivated demonic Qi. What were they trying to do!?
“But demonic Qi has been banned from cultivation for more than a thousand years. It has also slowly disappeared. Why would it suddenly appear here?” Adrian frowned and said in puzzlent.
Audrey’s heart beca particularly complicated. Her eyes deepened as she said, “It didn’t appear suddenly. It might have been lurking all this while and only slowly surfaced in recent years.”
“Wouldn’t that be very dangerous?” Adrian said with a serious expression. “The existence of Demonic Qi would turn many people and animals into darkness. They would attack each other, and the world would also turn dark.”
Is it really that serious?
Audrey asked herself in a low voice as she grew more and more worried. She recalled what Lance had said. The existence of a certain force had caused the natural elents in Spark City to gradually decrease. In the future, they might fall into a crisis.
Could all of this have sothing to do with the mysterious person and demonic Qi?
Audrey was unable to give an answer for the ti being. She could only decide to slowly understand the situation. Regarding the village, she still needed to find the Elders to understand so things.
Therefore, the Dragon Slaying Squad went to find the elder and inford him of the latest findings.
“I see. No wonder the villagers have beco like this. Sigh, it’s really heartbreaking.” Felt nodded thoughtfully, disappointnt written all over his face.
Audrey looked at him sympathetically and asked, “But we can’t see the villagers at all now. Do you know any way to see us, Elder?”
A way?
The Elder frowned as a deep aning flashed in his eyes. A mont later, he said, “There’s a way that you can consider.”
Hearing this, Audrey and the others looked puzzled as they waited for the Elder to continue.
“In a few days, there will be a morial ceremony in the village. Once a month, all the villagers will co here. At that ti, you will be able to see them,” Felt said in full detail.
“What ceremony?” Cole asked curiously.
Felt chuckled and said, “Nothing. It’s just that everyone is praying for peace.”
