The seemingly powerful black stone pillar was as vulnerable as rotten wood under the shadow of Yuan Cha Sword.
Wherever the sword light struck, the black stone pillars shattered inch by inch.
The stone pillars that are dozens of feet long hardly pose any obstacle to the Yuansha Sword. Looking from a distance, there seems to be a white light traveling rapidly through the stone pillars that are several feet thick. Wherever it passes, the stone pillars first expand sharply, and then melt.
Countless black fragments flew out in all directions, and were crushed to pieces by the sword energy surging nearby before they could fly far!
In just two or three breaths, the dozens of feet long black stone pillar in mid-air disappeared.
The long sword transformed from Yuan Cha Sword and Qu Wuming flew out of the dust and smoke dissipated from the stone pillar one after another.
However, at this time, where the man in black originally stood, there was only a white light door that was slowly dissipating. Under Qu Wuming's gaze, it completely disappeared with a pop.
The Yuan Cha Sword turned into a stream of light and landed unwillingly at the place where the light gate disappeared, without hitting anything.
"Damn it!" Qu Wuming couldn't help but cursed angrily when he saw that the man in black didn't fight with him and used the teleportation talisman to escape under the cover of the black stone pillar. He raised his hand angrily to recall Yuan Cha.
With his sword, he headed towards the Huaishu Valley Village below.
The Huaishu Valley Village below is now in ruins.
A huge handprint covered nearly a third of the village. Wherever it touched, the ground was dented by more than two feet. Even the roof tiles were broken into powder. There was blood in the gaps between some broken masonry.
It's slowly seeping out.
In the rest of the place, after being devastated by the aftermath of the previous battles, there was almost no intact house and no complete courtyard. As far as the eye could see, there were ruins and broken walls everywhere, and a strong smell of blood floated in the air.
In the village, it makes people sick to hear it.
A moment later, Zhang Xi also flew down next to Qu Wuming with his escaping light, silently looking at the mess in front of him, his tightly clenched fists unable to conceal the suppressed anger in his heart.
"Let's look for survivors..." Qu Wuming sighed, and he and Zhang Xi used their spiritual power to explore around.
After just half an hour, more than 30 survivors were actually rescued from the cellars scattered everywhere.
From the mouths of these survivors, as well as various clues discovered during the exploration in the village, Qu Wuming and his wife gradually made preliminary speculations about what happened here after nightfall.
The man in black must have quietly come to Huaishu Valley Village around Haishi, and started his "harvesting" work one by one, starting from a house on the outskirts of the village.
With his level of cultivation, if he wants to attack these ordinary people quietly, he can naturally do it without making any noise - with just one Heavenly Eye Technique, these ordinary people will fall into an endless terrifying illusion, and then unknowingly
, his heart was ripped out by him in extreme fear.
The men in black walked through the courtyards under the cover of night, and even the two deacons of the Tianjing Division hiding somewhere in the middle of the village were not immediately aware of them.
It was not until the man in black had swept through most of the village and began to approach the center of the village that he was finally discovered by the deacon who was lurking here.
One of them immediately stepped forward to fight with him, while the other shouted a warning, calling on the villagers to get up and take shelter.
However, among the two Nascent Souls, the latter-stage Deacon of Tianjing Division was no match for that person. However, after a few breaths, the man in black had cleared the obstacles and began to frantically hunt and kill the villagers who had escaped from their homes.
Not long after, two more deacons from the Tianjing Division arrived. Seeing that the man in black was killing people without restraint, they naturally couldn't stand by and watch. They didn't have time to wait for others to arrive, so they had to join forces and rush forward to help the villagers escape.
time.
However, the man in black was very capable. The two of them worked together, but they only lasted for more than ten breaths before they were brutally attacked.
Qu Wuming had more or less seen what happened next.
"Have you ever seen that person clearly?" Zhang Xi asked.
"No..." The villagers who were still trembling shook their heads. One of the bolder ones said with a cry, "There seems to be a layer of black mist on that man's face. It was so dark at night that he couldn't see his facial features clearly."
"Forget it, there's no need to ask them." Qu Wuming said, "Zhang Xi, go collect the relics of Zuo Daoist and his friends, and then erase all the fingerprints and traces related to the monks. There should be some in the control point.
The Xuanying Stone record just now is our only clue!"
"good!"
Zhang Xi turned around and left, and Qu Wuming said to the group of surviving villagers around him, "Look at my eyes!"
The villagers didn't know what Qu Wuming meant. When they heard the words, they all looked towards Qu Wuming's eyes. When their eyes met Qu Wuming's, the villagers felt a buzzing in their minds and rolled their eyes one after another.
Fainted to the ground...
After a while, everyone groaned slightly and woke up. Seeing the ruins of the village around them, they couldn't help but howl and cry.
"Stop crying, you should quickly choose someone with good legs and feet. Go to the county town to report the damage caused by the earthquake. Please ask the county government to send people over for disaster relief as soon as possible! By the way, please invite a few doctors to come over and treat the injured people." Qu Wuming.
said.
"Yes, yes! Thank you uncle!" A young man wiped away his tears and said to the woman next to him, "Aunt Zhang, please take care of my little sister. I will go to the county government for help."
"The rest of you, hurry up and search again to see if there are any other survivors!" Qu Wuming reminded, and everyone dispersed in a hurry, crying, looking for their relatives in the ruins.
Qu Wuming rubbed his slightly swollen head, and just used the Sky Eye Technique on more than thirty people at the same time. It not only wanted to erase their memories, plant an illusion of an earthquake in their minds, but also protect their brains from being damaged.
The damage really made Qu Wuming's consciousness feel a little strenuous, and he couldn't help but feel a little dazed and weak at this moment.
"Brother Wu, everything is done." At this time, Zhang Xi quietly walked over and whispered.
"Let's go! Go get the Xuanying Stone record."
…
Nihuan County, the station of Tianjing Division.
"Stop! I know this crutch!"
Hearing this, the manager of the Tianjing Department of Nihuan County hurriedly fixed the projection of the Xuanying Stone on a picture, and turned back to look at the speaker in the crowd.
The person who just spoke was a deacon from Tianjing Division in another part of the Red Moon Kingdom, who also came to help not long ago. He pointed at the lumpy crutch that the man in black took out in the picture said: "I
Know who he is!"
"Who is it?" The eyes of Qu Wuming, Zhang Xi, and several others around him fell on that person.
"Elder of the Ziyun Sect, Lang Xiaoyue!" The man said in a deep voice, "This staff is called the Black Golden Vine Dragon Staff. The whole body is extremely hard. It can break magic weapons without being damaged. After being activated by magic power, it can turn into A wooden dragon, containing the poisonous flames of the netherworld, specializes in defiling the magic weapon, Nascent Soul, and has infinite power! Decades ago, this thing was acquired by Lang Xiaoyue, who has always regarded it as a treasure and refined it into his own magic weapon. I once I’ve seen him use this staff to fight against enemies, it’s unmistakable, it’s him!”
"What a good man, Lang Xiaoyue, he actually attacked the ordinary people under his sect's rule!" The chief steward stared at the man in black in the light screen with a cold look in his eyes, "In that case, let's go to the Ziyun Sect's Criminal Law Tang, let’s get to know this elder Xiaoyue!”
…
"You want to falsely accuse the elder of our Ziyun Sect based on such a video?" The head of the Ziyun Sect's Criminal Law Hall had a livid face, and his eyes coldly glanced at the three people from the Tianjing Division.
"How can our Tianjing Division make false accusations at will?" Nihuan County Chief Steward said in a deep voice, "The black golden vine dragon staff is Lang Xiaoyue's natal magic weapon. Everyone knows that the pictures in the Xuanying Stone are really real. Could it be that Qiu Don’t you want to protect such a murderer?”
"Humph, if Elder Lang is really the murderer you say, after our Criminal Law Hall investigates, we will naturally not tolerate him and will definitely give an explanation to the people." Hall Master Qiu said coldly, "It's just that the investigators This matter is an internal matter within our Ziyun Sect, so there is no need to trouble your Tianjing Division!"
"This man killed several deacons of the Tianjing Division. Could it be that Hall Master Qiu just wanted to send us away with just a few words?"
"Oh? You can't prove that the man in black must be our Elder Lang, so why do you say it was our Elder Lang who killed your people?" Hall Master Qiu sneered, "Besides, I don't think I've heard of Zi The Yun Sect has to obey the arrangements of the Tianjing Division when doing things? You'd better make it clearer, this is the Eastern Continent, not your Middle-earth continent! Here, you, the Tianjing Division, are not allowed to ride on top of each sect and issue orders. !”
"You!" The manager of Nihuan County's Tianjing Division was so angry that his beard trembled. He suppressed his anger and said, "Okay, okay! However, Hall Master Qiu, if we don't see Lang Xiaoyue today, our Tianjing Division will I won't let it go!" After saying that, he looked at Hall Master Qiu coldly, and the atmosphere in the living room instantly turned cold to freezing point.
"Hmph, since you don't give up, come here!" Hall Master Qiu shouted outside, "Go and ask Elder Lang Xiaoyue to come!"
"yes!"
After about half a stick of incense, there was a sudden sound of footsteps at the door. Immediately afterwards, an old man in purple robe, Shi Shiran, stepped in. Before anyone arrived, he already said: "Huh, I've been here all these days." I am refining elixirs in seclusion, but I want to see who is insisting on falsely accusing me!"
…
"You said, the person in this image is me? Were these recorded last night?" Lang Xiaoyue looked at the image projected in the Xuanying Stone, with a hint of ridicule in his eyes, and coldly glanced at Qu Wuming and others. The person finally fell into the hands of the chief steward of the Tianjing Division of Nihuan County.
"The witnesses and physical evidence are all there, do you still want to deny it?" the chief steward of Nihuan County said with a stern face.
"Witness? Just him? He met the man in black from a distance? Can he also be used as a witness?" Lang Xiaoyue gave Qu Wuming a hard look in disguise, and then said, "Physical evidence? Just That cane in this video? Huh, what a joke.”
As he spoke, the light in Lang Xiaoyue's storage ring flashed, and a crutch exuding astonishing momentum appeared in his hand!
