Peerless Taoist

Lu Yu frowned and said in a clear voice, "We have never met before. I am here to seek justice for the dead!"    

The woman was stunned for a moment before she giggled.    

"You are in danger for a stranger. I really don't know if you are cute or if you have read too much."    

"Cut the crap. Did you kill that person or not?" Lu Yu shouted in a deep voice.    

He frowned but did not choose to attack immediately.    

The fox demon in front of him already had the ability to transform, and at the same time, it also had the cultivation level of the Earth Immortal Realm.    

However, Lu Yu did not feel any evil aura from the fox demon.    

This was a little strange. He came here to deal with the evil cultivators, but he did not expect to meet a fox demon.    

The woman immediately snorted coldly. "You are so rude. Not only did you break into my place, you even asked me in a questioning tone. Fine. Let me tell you. I killed that man. Are you going to kill him? "    

Lu Yu was even more confused when he heard this.    

According to the descriptions of Li Xiaoran and the others, the dead scholar must have encountered some kind of evil technique and died.    

However, not only did this fox monster not have any aura of the Wicked path, it even had the noble aura of the scholarly faction.    

Someone who could cultivate the noble aura with the body of a Demonic Beast was definitely not an ordinary person.    

"I was rude. I am Ning Sheng, an examinee who will be entering the city this time."    

Lu Yu still cupped his hands and bowed.    

Since he was here in disguise, he had to blend in with the mundane world. He maintained the attitude of an ordinary scholar at all times.    

"Scholar Ning, you guessed right about one thing."    

The girl laughed and revealed a stunning smile, "I really killed that person."    

"Hmm?"    

Lu Yu raised his eyebrows when he saw the woman take out a token from her pocket and throw it into his hand.    

The token was completely black, and there were nineteen different patterns of dead heads carved on it. At the center of the heads, the number "Two hundred and forty-one" was written in ancient characters.    

"This is the token of the Cold Crow Valley. They're disciples of the Evil Clan and are trying to sneak into Xianyang."    

The female said, "I found this person and killed him while the others weren't around. Before he died, he used some evil art and sacrificed his blood. In the end, he died in the middle of the sacrifice and became a ghost. "    

After saying that, the woman waved her hand and revealed a disgusted expression. "I couldn't be bothered to clean up his corpse. I just left it there until those scholars found it. That's all."    

"So that's how it is."    

Lu Yu suddenly understood.    

The scholar who was killed in the temple in the desolate mountain was actually a disciple of the Evil Sect.    

Lu Yu had never seen the corpse's true appearance before. He originally thought that it was killed by the Evil Sect, but he did not expect that the scholar who was killed was actually a disciple of the Evil Sect.    

"This Hanya Valley is so bold, they actually dare to barge into the Capital of Great Qin. Do they not want to live?" Lu Yu said coldly.    

The woman immediately let out a light laugh.    

"You scholar, how naive. So what if it's the Capital? The power of the Dark Crow Valley was so great that even many local officials had become their puppets. How long has it been since the establishment of the Great Qin Dynasty? Even the Great Tang and the Great Yu of the previous dynasties couldn't completely control the martial arts world. Do you think the Great Qin can do it?"    

"From a chaotic world to a prosperous one, it really isn't something that can be accomplished overnight." Lu Yu let out a long sigh. "Thank you, young lady, for helping me. I wonder what your name is?"    

"My name is Hu Xiaoqian."    

The woman smiled sweetly. "You are not like those hypocrites in the city. All of them wish they could have their eyes on me. You are a good person."    

"But you should be happy that you're not from the Cold Crow Valley, or else I would kill you right now."
