An Immortal cultivator of the Imperial Court said with a bitter smile, “If the lords of the Prefecture Capital over at Qinghe County knew that we let a demonic cultivator escape, I reckon the two of us would be in deep trouble.”
“Qinghe County?”
Chen Qianxue did not want to talk to them much, but she suddenly heard a word.
It caught her attention.
“Senior, you don’t know?” The Immortal cultivator of the Imperial Court said in surprise, “A few days ago, there was a demon from the Sacred Heart Palace causing trouble in Qinghe County. Thus, the prefectural government sent a few people to deal with it.”
Chen Qianxue frowned.
There was a demon from the Sacred Heart Palace in Qinghe County? Why had she not heard of it when she was in Qinghe County?
Could it be that those demons had come out after he had left Qinghe County?
If a demon had appeared in Qinghe County, the Chen family should be fine, right?
One had to know… Her family was all in Qinghe County.
“Right, Senior.” The Immortal cultivator of the Imperial Court suddenly said, “If you assist the Imperial Court in killing the demon cultivators, you can go to the Yamen to receive a reward…”
Chen Qianxue came back to her senses.
With a calm expression, she shook her head. “There’s no need. I’ll give you this corpse. Treat it as if you killed it yourself! When you tell others, don’t mention me. Please remember.”
The two Immortal cultivators of the Imperial Court were stunned. They were a bit confused and were about to say something.
Suddenly, their vision blurred, and Chen Qianxue’s figure disappeared.
The two Immortal cultivators of the Imperial Court looked at each other.
They could see the astonishment in each other’s eyes.
A moment later, one of them looked at the corpse of the demon cultivator on the ground, and he could not help but say in a low voice, “That Immortal cultivator of the Spirit Sword Sect just left like that? She doesn’t want the reward from the Imperial Court? That’s a lot of medicinal pills to assist in cultivation!”
The other person thought for a moment and said thoughtfully, “That Senior told us not to reveal her. Did she accept a mission in the Spirit Sword Sect and need to keep it a secret?”
“Hiss… Now that you say it, it’s really possible! Do we really have to do this?”
“Don’t tell me you want to offend an Immortal cultivator from the Spirit Sword Sect?”
“Ugh… Cough cough! Then let’s do it!”
“…”
Chen Qianxue did not hide that she came from the Spirit Sword Sect, and it worked.
…
In the evening.
Qinghe County.
As the third Human Tool, Fu Shuangni held an ancient book in her left hand and played with a black feather that could be used as a fan if it was wider.
She looked at the contents of the book seriously and nodded from time to time thoughtfully.
“So that’s how it is. Is this the usual method of Golden Core demonic beasts?”
“Before dying, seal your remnant soul in the demon core in your body.”
“If someone uses this demon core to cultivate… Then they will become an unlucky person who is about to be possessed.”
Fu Shuangni muttered to herself.
She suddenly understood.
If she had known about this, she would not have only lived for more than ten years in the cultivation simulator, right?
That’s right.
The book Fu Shuangni was reading was related to demonic beasts. This was a book in the Great Yan Imperial Palace.
Luckily, she was interested in reading, so her storage bag was filled with all sorts of unique books.
Among them, there was an ancient book that introduced many secrets about demonic beasts!
It was the book in her hands.
She had originally come to Qinghe County to investigate the matter of the Sacred Heart Palace’s demon cultivators. In the end, she was dragged into the Immortal Cultivation Simulator.
All of a sudden, she placed her attention on the Immortal Cultivation Simulator.
Fu Shuangni knew what was most important.
After all, the cooldown was over.
There were only four hours left!
“Then what method should I use to counter the methods of the demonic beasts? Not using the demon core? No… If I don’t use that demon core, just based on my talent in the simulator, how difficult would it be to cultivate?”
“It might take 100 years, but I might not be able to break through to the fifth level of the Qi Refinement stage…”
Fu Shuangni read the book in her hand several times, but she could not find the corresponding method.
This made her frown.
At this moment, a knock on the door interrupted her thoughts. Fu Shuangni was not unhappy and said calmly, “Come in.”
Only to see an official from the Prefecture Capital respectfully come in and handed over a stack of papers. He said, “Your Highness, this is the information I have collected about the demon cultivators of the Sacred Heart Palace. This information does not only come from Qinghe County, but also a few nearby counties.”
After saying that, the Prefecture Capital official had a curious gaze as he secretly looked at the demonic beast feather in Fu Shuangni’s hand.
What kind of demonic beast feather was this?
Bird-type demonic beast?
Fu Shuangni kept the Moon Crow feather and books back into her storage bag. She took out a piece of paper and looked at it.
“A trace of a demon cultivator appeared in west cloud city? Two Imperial Court officials chased after the demon cultivator and killed him?”
Fu Shuangni raised her eyebrows, “How could they find traces of a demon cultivator so quickly?”
She was not happy.
Instead, she was worried.
The demon cultivators of Sacred Heart Palace were a bunch of frightened birds, and they were all well hidden.
Now, they could be found so easily…
This could only mean that there was a high possibility that the demon cultivators of Sacred Heart Palace were about to make a big move!
The so-called big move of the demon cultivators…
It was definitely not a good thing!
For example, when Qinghe County discovered the traces of the demon cultivators, Qinghe County was almost turned into a sieve by the demon cultivators. Even the county office was almost controlled by the demon cultivators.
Most importantly, not long after the demon cultivators in Qinghe County were killed, another demon cultivator appeared.
There must be something urgent that the demon cultivators urgently wanted to complete.
Fu Shuangni thought of the information that Cultivator Bai had told her.
“Pass down the orders!” Fu Shuangni said seriously, “Have all the county offices within a 500-mile radius around Qinghe County be on high alert. Also, have them rope in some itinerant cultivators and Immortal cultivators to resist the demon cultivators’ conspiracy.”
“At the same time, use the Communication Talisman to send a message to the provincial government and ask them to immediately send a large number of people!”
Fu Shuangni had a bad premonition: Something bad may happen.
Hear, hear.
The official’s heart suddenly went cold. Seeing the Princess so serious, he did not dare be negligent.
