Fu Shuangni remembered that it was the voice of a constable. The other party’s tone was filled with panic and fear.
Furthermore, she remembered that she had sent this constable to the neighboring county yesterday to inform the neighboring county to pay attention to the traces of the demon cultivators.
He came back so quickly? He even brought back news?
“What do you mean ‘dead people’?” The county magistrate’s voice was filled with disappointment. “Even if someone really died, that’s the matter of the county next door. What has it got to do with us! Why are you bringing back useless news?”
“Sir, let him speak clearly!” This was Bi Xu’s voice. “Don’t panic. Continue speaking.”
The constable said anxiously, “I… I received orders from the governor yesterday, so I rushed to Yangqing County.”
“Then I found that there was no one guarding the city wall of Yangqing County.”
“I… I went in to take a look out of curiosity. In the end… There were all dead people inside!”
“Men, women, old, young, tall, short, fat, thin… They were all lying on the ground!”
“They… they don’t have any blood on them, but they’re not moving!”
“They’re dead! They’re all dead!!”
The constable’s tone was filled with fear. From this, it could be seen how flustered he was.
It could also be seen that what he said was not fake. He had indeed seen a terrifying scene.
When she heard this, Fu Shuangni’s expression changed.
She could not help but stand up. She went outside.
She ignored the magistrate and Bi Xu and walked straight to the constable. Her expression was unprecedentedly serious. She asked in a deep voice, “Are your words true?”
After the constable saw Fu Shuangni, he did not dare to look into her eyes.
He tried his best to suppress the fear in his heart and said with a trembling voice, “Madam… Madam, I did not lie. What I said was all true.”
Fu Shuangni took a deep breath. Her serious expression turned green and ugly.
Although she did not have any concrete evidence, she was 80% sure that this matter was related to the Sacred Heart Palace!
At this time, someone who dared to do such a thing…
Moreover, to do such a thing…
Apart from the demons in the Sacred Heart Palace, who else could it be?
What Fu Shuangni could not accept was that the other party actually attacked right under her nose!
Yangqing County was right next to Qinghe County!
The two counties were very close!
“Call those four people over!” After Fu Shuangni’s expression changed, she regained her calmness once again because she knew that anger was useless.
The ‘four people’ that she mentioned were naturally the four people that followed her to Qinghe County.
After that, Fu Shuangni walked in a direction. She wanted to go to the Golden Core puppet.
Fu Shuangni knew that this was a huge matter and she needed strong support.
At the moment.
The support from the Prefecture Capital had yet to arrive. The only strong support she could think of was the Golden Core puppet! Of course, she did not know that it was just a Human Puppet.
Until now, she had always treated the Golden Core puppet as a relatively friendly itinerant cultivator — Li Feiyu!
Eh?
Wait!
Itinerant cultivator?
Fu Shuangni suddenly reacted. She remembered that there was another itinerant cultivator with unknown strength in Qinghe County.
At least, after she saw him that day, she could not tell what his cultivation level was.
However, could she ask him for help?
Would he choose to lend a helping hand?
Fu Shuangni frowned. She was a little uncertain. After all, she was not sure about the other party. If she could not get him to help and even offended him… Wouldn’t that make things worse?
Forget it! Let’s give it a try!
Fu Shuangni decided to give it a try to see if she could get that itinerant cultivator to help. Because for her now, if she could have one more helper, she would have one more helper.
She could only try to use the resources that she could use to deal with the huge crisis that was coming!
Fu Shuangni first went to the Golden Core puppet and told him what happened in Yangqing County. At this time, she did not need to hide anything and directly said that she needed the Golden Core puppet’s help.
The Golden Core puppet hesitated for a moment and agreed.
Following which, under the Golden Core puppet’s astonished gaze, Fu Shuangni rode her sword.
According to the route she took to that place the last time, in a short period of time, she flew to her destination.
This place was actually the place where Bai Yi lived!
The unaffiliated cultivator from Qinghe County that she thought of before was Bai Yi!
“Whew!” Fu Shuangni slowly exhaled. She calmed her thoughts and was about to walk up and politely knock on the door when a sudden voice made her heart jump!
This sudden voice came from behind her, “Eh? What a shocking cultivation foundation.”
It was a woman’s voice. Her tone was lazy and surprised, “Your bone age is only around 20, right? You have already reached Foundation Establishment?”
“Also, this unique aura, which dynasty are you from?”
The unfamiliar voice made Fu Shuangni’s white forehead sweat.
She could tell her age and cultivation at a glance.
Furthermore…
She recognized her identity at a glance.
Who was it?
If it was not because the other party did not show any hostility, Fu Shuangni would have thought that she had met an enemy. She even thought that she would die here today.
She suppressed her palpitations and turned around.
She was stunned.
Very beautiful — these three words were the first thought in her mind.
Fu Shuangni realized that behind her was a beautiful and mature woman.
Fu Shuangni smelled a little alcohol. It was the smell of spirit wine.
She did not know if it was her imagination, but Fu Shuangni felt that… this strange and dangerous woman in front of her…
When she looked at her…
There was a strange feeling.
She could not figure it out.
“Senior, may I ask who you are?” Fu Shuangni felt that the person in front of her was not a demon cultivator. After all, if the other party was a demon cultivator, she would already be dead, so she asked politely.
“Me? I’m a weak girl who can’t even protect her own sect and can only struggle for her life.”
The other party smiled.
