In the guest hall of the Ye Family.

Wei Zifu naturally did not understand Zhou Jing’s subtle psychological changes.

“This demon cultivator’s name is Mei Zhanqing. This person also goes by the moniker Scholar Plum Blossom. In the north, he used spells to harm people, bewitch the officials and people, and seek personal gain. A friend of mine previously discovered his actions, and went to capture this person, but he was harmed by this demon cultivator. His magic power was destroyed, and he became a cripple. That demon cultivator’s tracks were exposed, and he fled.”

“I only found out about this after the incident and personally chased after him. I planned to eliminate demons and protect the citizens, so I chased him all the way from the north for more than half a year. During this period of time, we fought many times, but this person escaped every time. He was really slippery.

Fortunately, I’m good at the Qi Divination Technique and wasn’t left behind by this demon. Recently, I followed this person’s remaining aura all the way to the Ning Tian Prefecture and found his hiding place.”

“It’s just that he had influenced the local nobles, so I could only temporarily avoid them. I happened to hear that there was an expert in Ning Tian Prefecture, so I came to ask for help today.”

Zhou Jing listened patiently, his heart racing.

Now that he had a reputation, not only would he attract the nobles and commoners, but he would also attract such a cultivator to visit and involve him in the storm.

Since this old Daoist had come to ask for help, it meant that his current image should still be that of a righteous person, right? That made sense. The true bad types all looked like himself on the surface and often showed themselves as righteous people as well. It was not surprising that the Old Daoist Wei got fooled.

Zhou Jing thought for a moment and pondered,

“What spells is this demon good at? He must be quite capable to be able to escape from you, right?”

Wei Zifu nodded and frowned, “This demonic cultivator practices some harmful spells. He knows the Suppressing Curse Technique, the Ghost Nurturing Technique, the Corpse Refinement Technique, and the Yin-Yang Replenishment Technique. Although his cultivation is inferior to mine, his spells and methods are strange and difficult to deal with. Although my talisman techniques restrain such evil spells, this Mei Zheqing is indeed better at attacking than me. I almost fell for it a few times. Fortunately, my magic power is more profound, so I was able to break through those hidden methods.”

Zhou Jing nodded to himself.

It seemed that in the spell system, the level of one’s cultivation was not the main source of combat strength. The use of the spell itself determined one’s combat strength. Those harmful and evil spells seemed to be slightly better in terms of facing the enemy.

“I wonder what kind of Sect this Plum Blossom is in?”

Zhou Jing asked curiously.

Wei Zifu sighed, “I don’t know about Mei Zhanqing’s master either. I only heard that this person was once accepted into the sect by a certain rogue cultivator. Later on, he harmed his master and occupied the spell books. He then fumbled around and cultivated a set of evil techniques, especially the Yin-Yang Absorption Technique.

He is the most proficient in this technique especially. He used this technique more than once to commit evil and harmed countless people. This evil technique allows him to increase her magic power and advance extremely quickly.”

When Zhou Jing heard this, he frowned, “In that case, this person must have harmed many women and is a rapist?”

Wei Zifu’s expression became subtle. He coughed and stammered,

“It’s just… I didn’t make it clear earlier. This Mei Zheqing is a rather beautiful woman, and she uses the technique of gathering Yang to replenish her Yin… Those who were harmed by her were all men. They were all sucked dry, and their essence dissipated, turning them into cripples. This is what happened to my friend.”

Zhou Jing’s eyes widened.

After all this, this guy was actually referring to a female and not a male?

Then he would have to experience it… Cough, he had to subdue it.

Zhou Jing hurriedly threw away the dirty thoughts that subconsciously appeared in his mind. He kept a straight face and asked seriously, “Then which noble family is this person hiding in now?”

“The Zhang family,” Wei Zifu blurted out.

Zhou Jing’s heart skipped a beat.

The Zhang family was also a wealthy businessman in Ning Tian Prefecture. They were similar to the Ye family and had some business dealings. They had also visited him recently, but they had never mentioned the matter of Mei Zhanqing.

Zhou Jing pondered for a while and slowly said, “I already know about this matter. Since you want to ask for help, I can help you. However, it’s not appropriate for me to rashly appear just based on one side of the story. I also know this person from the Zhang family. I’ll make a decision after I see Scholar Plum Blossom with my own eyes.”

“It’s all up to you.”

Wei Zifu cupped his hands. He did not expect to persuade Perfected Master Windwalker to help him the moment they met. Since he had no evidence, the other party naturally had to be careful. He could not possibly believe that the other party was a demon just because he badmouth her in front of him.

After all, he had a favor to ask. He did not mind Zhou Jing delaying the investigation for a while.

Zhou Jing waved his hand and said, “If I investigate and find out that this is true, I’ll step forward and explain to the Zhang family so that they won’t protect that demon anymore. Then, you can fight with Mei Zhanqing. After all, this is your matter. I can’t help you do it. At most, I’ll create some opportunities for you. If this demon wants to escape, I’ll stop her.”

After hearing the explanation from Daoist Wei, it was a little inappropriate to him to stand up for either party. The image he had of an expert was not the kind of person who hated evil and sided with the righteous. The help he suggested was more in line with his current style.

“That’s only right. Thank you for your help, Perfected One. That’s enough.”

Wei Zifu hurriedly thanked him.

Although Perfected Master Windwalker did not intend to do it himself, Wei Zifu did not mind. He was not the kind of person who would force others to eliminate demons in the name of righteousness.

In the spell lineage, the difference between good and evil was relatively simple. No matter what spell one practiced, it was considered evil to harm others. However, there was no such thing as everyone having the right to subdue evil.

This was because most people who cultivated sorcery were people who chose not to involve themselves in the mortal world. They were all idle and did not like many rules. If they encountered an evil faction, they could attack if they wanted to, but it did not matter if they were unwilling.

Wei Zifu originally did not want to trouble others, but since the demonic Daoist was receiving protection, he came to seek help from Zhou Jing. He only wanted to borrow Zhou Jing’s power and planned to do it himself. After chasing her for more than half a year, he also wanted to finish her off personally.
