Chapter 313: Calamity Beckons from the East

"Where's Ma Tao I want to settle the score with him! Leaving his fiancée behind and saving someone who doesn't want to be saved!"Wu Lianyi remained somber, stating coldly.He turned into a man-eating m...When Lei Yao returned to her feet again, the white python turned its massive head, its crimson eyes reflecting ripples of her figure. Its core was weakly ejected, and then its entire body crashed down, crushing the entire bamboo forest.

And those countless little white snakes, like fish in a river, also instantly panicked and desperately began to burrow into the waterfall.

Ripple retrieved her ancestral sword and, clutching a spirit nucleus to restore her spiritual energy, circled the corpse of the white python once. Then, she plunged her sword into the creature's seven-inch point, extracting a fragment that pulsed with black malevolent energy.

"Congratulations to the tasker, for discovering the source of evil energy. The progress of the mission to eliminate evil energy is continuously advancing. Please tasker continue to work hard!"

The stone mill is bubbling again.

Ripples burned with spiritual fire, purging the evil that clung to the shards. Listening to the stone mill's hint, her beautiful eyes turned, gazing at the shard in her hand and furrowing her brow.

This is clearly a fragment of a demonic artifact. It must be what the mortar spoke of, something that entered here through a time-space rift. And it fell from the high martial world into this low martial world. He then frowned and asked:

This is just a fragment of the cursed weapon. According to what you said, this world's creation of evil things comes from this weapon. This weapon might now be scattered anywhere in this plane. Am I supposed to gather them piece by piece

"Yes, but please have the tasker think carefully about the original's experiences. It should give you some clues.

This interface collapses at the end because the entire interface is plunged into chaos. Every day, people die unjustly. Their resentment, anger, and souls are nourishing this evil artifact.

This ultimately caused them to reassemble, restoring the complete artifact. It's all thanks to you finding this piece of the artifact that I was able to unlock the hidden information.

The stone mill added.

"I understand! It seems that the original owner being controlled by evil spirits wasn't a coincidence. There must also be resentment and unwillingness from the original owner here, otherwise, the evil spirits wouldn't have merged with her so smoothly. Although in the original owner's memory, she felt forced."

Liàn Yī's eyes drooped as she thought for a moment, then explained the reason behind it.

"Yes!"

The millstone's response this time was very concise.

I understand.

Ripples waved her hand, taking the entire white python into space. The white python was enlarged because of the magic weapon. Before, it was inside the white python's body, and the other party deliberately avoided her, almost causing her to miss it.

Thus, it seems that the master and disciple are not completely useless. Next time she sees the two disciples, she decides to be nicer to them.

After dealing with the matter, Lian Ri Yu Jian returned to the inn and continued to dispel the evil qi on the cursed weapons.

For a whole day, ripples was left undisturbed, continuing to deal with that sinister fragment. This kind of thing, if it had encountered Ripples's ancestor before, could have been crushed with bare hands. Unfortunately, her current strength didn't allow for that. She could only slowly begin to grind away at the fragment.

As evening fell, a knock came at her door. She could only place the shards of the evil artifact into a box crafted from spiritual essence, sealed it away, and then spoke:

Come in!

"Miss, Liang Chen has an urgent matter to see you!"

"Let him in!"

"Yes!"

After bowing, Luo Ying took a special look at her young mistress's face. Seeing nothing amiss, she stepped out, allowing Liang Chen who was waiting to enter.

"Miss, Xiao Hui is back. That county magistrate is indeed secretly recruiting people. He's planning to avoid Wuyou Daoist and capture the white python."

Liang Chen finished speaking and pulled the little gray creature out of his arms.

Xiao Hui's little nose twitched. Xiao Dou Dou looked at the ripples with his eyes, then twisted his body and quickly burrowed into Liang Chen's arms, still trembling slightly, as if frightened.

Liàn Yī was amused, her lips curved into a smile, stopping Liáng Chén from pulling out Xiǎo Huī again.

"Your little pet has a very sensitive nose, so don't make things difficult for it."

She killed the white python, and her body must have been tainted with its aura. Although she used the Dust Removal Technique, Xiao Hui's perception was very keen, and it should have sensed something.

"Miss, what shall we do about this"

"You should go to the County Office tomorrow morning and deliver some medicinal herbs to Wuyou Daoist. Also, tell him this news."

"Yes!"

Liang Chen soothed the little grey in his arms before leaving.

Early the next morning, Liang Chen went to the county office with the medicine for healing and told Wuyou the news.

Worry-free heard this news and had a bit of a headache. He simply asked Liang Chen directly:

"What is Lu Yao Xianzi planning to do"

"As for this one, I don't know. I just ran errands, delivering medicine and messages."

"Would you please ask your fairy if she is willing to team up with me to take down that white python"

"My fairy is leaving in two days, she probably won't have time to team up with you."

Liang Chen replied with a haughty air.

Because Xiao Hui hopped and gestured excitedly after returning last night, telling him that the white python was most likely slaughtered by their young mistress. He silently prayed "be good," but his admiration for his own mistress grew even stronger.

"This"

"Having brought the matter to your attention, I shall take my leave!"

Liang Chen bowed and then turned to leave the yamen.

On the other side, the bodyguards who fled back overnight went to see Chang Wei in a state of shock and brought news that Chang Shunyuan might have been involved in an accident.

Chang Shun Yuan's face changed, and he said in a harsh voice:

"Didn't I tell you to go together with the county office to investigate that waterfall bamboo forest in two days Who among you encouraged Shun Yuan to go there alone"

"The Head of the鏢 had calmed down, we also advised the young master, but the young master refused to listen. He said he wanted to complete this task alone so that you would be impressed and wouldn't be mocked by the Wen family mother and daughter."

The brown-robed bodyguard was the last to escape. He was certain that his young master was dead, so he resorted to a ploy to shift the blame for inciting Chang Shun onto Wen's mother and daughter.

"What a shameless wench! I wouldn't have bothered her, but she dared to incite my son into danger!"

Chang Wei smashed the wooden table beside him, his face grim as he said:

“Send someone to find the whereabouts of Wen’s mother and daughter.”

Yes, Head of the鏢！

Chang Wei thought for a moment, then turned and left the temporary base, going to the county magistrate's residence. He wanted to look for his son and, by the way, retrieve the goods that had been escorted by the one-eyed man. This time, he would have to rely on the power of the yamen.

After Chang Wei finalized the specific time to go to Wufeng Bamboo Grove, his subordinates also found the inn where Lian Yi and their party were staying.

It was a stroke of luck that the tailor shop had just finished making a batch of men's clothing and it happened to be ready by the agreed time. The shopkeeper's wife, accompanied by the tailor, came to measure Liàn Yī's size and choose fabric in order to have her dress made as soon as possible.

It turned out to be Minmin who was meeting the madam. The sharp-eyed鏢師 saw this, so they took up a position outside the inn and inquired around. After Wenlu personally sent off the proprietress of the clothing store, they hurried back to report.

Chang Wei led people, with a rush of wind and fire, arrived at the inn. But before he could step into the inn's door, he was thrown out by Lian Yi's flick of her sleeve.

Chang Wei, who was knocked down on the street, changed color several times. He knew very well that the person who made the move had deep internal strength, even surpassing his own. The fact that they were swept out of the door was already considered sparing them face; otherwise, they wouldn't just be alive, but also seriously injured.

Let's go!he two sword-wielding female attendants behind her stepped forward. These two were the Empress's personal guards, their identities different but both exuding a powerful aura. They were all battle-hard...
