"We have investigated all the lineages in the past, but there has never been a lineage like yours, Wu Shangqiu. May I ask, where did you come from?"
The white-robed scholar stared into Wu Shangqiu's eyes and walked forward step by step. His aura was overbearing.
Although Wu Shangqiu used the name of the Evil Suppressor, he was still different from the people of this world. He could fly, manipulate spiritual vigor, and even set up formations. The techniques and supernatural powers he displayed were far better than the aborigines.
Even though there were people who suspected his background, but because he had brought many benefits, no one would pursue this. There was no need for it. However, after the Evil Sky, rumors started to spread, and he became special.
Wu Shangqiu was thinking about how to end today's matter.
These people had surrounded him, so they definitely wouldn't let him go. However, he definitely couldn't admit that he was someone from another world. Otherwise, he would never be able to explain himself. Thus, he said, "I once said that I had always been cultivating with my master in the deep mountains, so what I learned was different from normal families."
There were indeed many Evil Suppressors cultivating in the mountains. This was because not only would there be evil spirits in places where people gathered, but there would also be evil spirits in places where people did not go. This was something that could not be found out.
The white-robed scholar had an expression that said he knew he would say that. He sneered, waved his hand and said, "Bring it up."
Not long after, he saw four servants carrying a large boat that was more than twenty feet long into the hall.
The moment Wu Shangqiu saw this, his gaze froze. This was the flying ship that he lost ten years ago. He did not expect it to fall into this person's hands.
The white-robed scholar asked, "Wu Shangqiu, do you recognize this?"
Wu Shangqiu kept quiet.
The white-robed scholar chuckled and said, "It's fine if you don't admit it." He waved his hand again, "Bring that person up."
In a short while, a sturdy person was pushed in from outside the hall. Looking at his attire, he seemed to be a village resident.
When he suddenly saw so many people, he couldn't help but be at a loss, but when he saw Wu Shangqiu was also in the hall, his eyes lit up, and he relaxed a lot. He bowed and said, "Greetings Mister, may I know why you're looking for Ah Gan?"
Wu Shangqiu's heart sank.
The white-clothed scholar gave him a few looks, walked over, raised his chin, and said, "You are A Gan?"
Ah Gan said, "It's Xiao Ren."
The white-clothed scholar moved a bit closer. He pointed at Wu Shangqiu and said, "You told the villagers that you found Sir Wu in this boat that day, and that was why you carried him back? “
Ah Gan loved to brag the most. After Wu Shangqiu became famous, he would tell everyone he met that he was the one who carried Wu Shangqiu back that day. But he was not a fool. He realized that the situation was not right. He stammered, "I, I don't know …"
Wu Shangqiu sighed and said, "He's just a villager, why are you making things difficult for him? That day, I was indeed saved by him, but so what? This is only a magic tool. "
"Magic tool?" An unfamiliar voice appeared in the hall.
Everyone looked over and saw a man wearing a golden robe, a long bamboo cane in his hand, and a mask with blurry facial features walking in. Seeing that it was him, everyone revealed respectful expressions and bowed. "Greetings, Priest."
The Golden Palace Priest walked straight to Wu Shangqiu and looked him up and down. He pointed at him and said, "That's right, you're that evil demon. Heaven's malice came because of you! "
In the legends of the world, baleful aura was attracted by evil demons. But until now, evil demons only looked strange and ferocious. They had never looked like humans.
Everyone in the hall had heard similar words before they came, but they were still skeptical. But now, the person pointing at him was the Golden Palace Priest who had Just Now Quelled Heaven's Malice, so they had no choice but to believe him.
At this moment, A Gan shouted, "I don't believe it, Sir is a good person! He's not an evil demon! "
The priest snorted and swung his cane, hitting A Gan. The latter staggered and instantly vomited blood, falling to the ground.
Wu Shangqiu frowned and said, "As a Priest, is this your ability to harm a commoner who has no divine power?"
The priest said coldly, "This person defended you, an evil demon, and that's a crime!"
The grey-robed elder couldn't stand it any longer and said, "Master Priest, this person is just an ignorant commoner. It's no wonder that he was deceived by the evil spirit. Even we were deceived, let alone him?" He waved his hand and said, "Take him away, don't let him die. After we capture this evil demon and confront him in front of the world, we'll deal with him together."
Wu Shangqiu knew that there was no way to resolve this, so he looked at everyone and said, "What do you guys want?"
The grey-robed elder walked forward and sighed. "Mister Wu, regarding the matter of heaven's malice, there needs to be someone who can stop everyone from talking. If you're willing to stand out and admit that you did it, we can guarantee that your children will be safe."
Actually, he and many others didn't believe that heaven's malice could be caused by a single person. If that was really the case, would Wu Shangqiu be standing there waiting for them to question him?
However, in the past, whenever a land of malice appeared, it would always be accompanied by all sorts of disasters. Therefore, suppressing malice was also suppressing disasters. The two were often talked about together, and there was a set of self-justifying arguments that had been carried out everywhere for a long time.
However, Just Now, they couldn't come up with a reasonable explanation for the natural disaster that had passed.
They needed to find a suitable person to take the blame, and without a doubt, Wu Shangqiu was the person to be used as a sacrifice.
Actually, with his current position, he didn't have to do this, but with the Golden Palace Priest identifying him, it could only be him.
Wu Shangqiu frowned and didn't speak.
The grey-robed elder didn't force him either. He knew Wu Shangqiu's ability, and if he could use words to make him surrender, that would be the best outcome.
However, at that moment, there was a loud noise from afar. Everyone's expression tensed up, but they didn't know what happened.
The white-robed scholar felt that something was wrong and asked, "What happened?"
After a while, someone came to report, "It's Liu Qiuhua. She brought her son and daughter and escaped on a beam of red light."
The white-robed scholar heard this and cursed in his heart. He said, "It's okay, as long as Wu Shangqiu is still here."
Wu Shangqiu heaved a sigh of relief. After being married to him for so many years, Liu Qiuhua obviously knew his feelings and knew the principle of breaking off when it was time to do so. It was best for them to leave now. If they were to be wary of the people in the village, then no one would be able to leave in the end.
Now that he had nothing to worry about, he was able to move freely. With a command in his heart, a profound light enveloped his body, and then he flew upwards.
However, at that moment, he saw the Priest open his hand, and there was an eye drawn on his palm. He waved it at him, and Wu Shangqiu instantly felt a binding force on his body, as if he was being pulled by something, and it was difficult for him to go to a higher place.
The white-robed scholar sneered, "Wu Shangqiu, do you think we won't do anything after knowing that you can fly? You won't be able to escape today! "
Wu Shangqiu ignored him. These words were only used to dampen his fighting spirit. If this person really had the ability, wouldn't he just come up and take him down? What was the point of saying so much nonsense?
However, since he couldn't fly out immediately, he would be a target if he stayed in the sky. Therefore, he immediately descended and suddenly scattered the mysterious light.
At this moment, everyone in the hall also made their moves. However, no matter what they did, it was useless against the mysterious light.
Although Wu Shangqiu often flew around, he had never displayed the power of this mysterious light in front of others. Outsiders didn't know he had this kind of ability at all.
The Priest shouted, "This is the Demonic Sorcery!"
Just as he was trying to take something out, he saw a dazzling golden light rippling in front of him, and he felt that he couldn't see anything clearly. Everyone was also afraid of being at a disadvantage, so they all retreated.
When the light dissipated, they looked again and saw that Wu Shangqiu was standing on the flying ship. He said, "The last thing you all should do is bring this flying ship in front of me again."
The white-robed scholar was shocked, and said, "Not good! Quick, stop him! "
However, it was already too late. The flying ship suddenly shook, and it had already smashed through the houses and flew into the sky, leaving behind everyone looking at each other.
Wu Shangqiu held the talisman in his hand and sat in the flying ship. However, he realized that his circulation was a little sluggish.
This was because the white-robed scholar and the others also thought that the flying ship might be used by him, so they did some damage. However, those were only some external restrictions. Unless the entire flying ship was torn down, otherwise, the restrictions that were refined into the inside would not be destroyed so easily. However, flying was not a problem.
After a few days, he landed in a desolate valley and met up with his wife and child who had arrived a step earlier.
As early as ten years ago, he made some arrangements here and opened up a few caves that could be used as an escape route in a crucial moment. He didn't think that it would really be useful now.
Liu Qiuhua said worriedly, "Husband, what should I do after I come down?"
Wu Shangqiu said, "Stay here for now, and we can plan later. “
He wanted to slowly cultivate Dao techniques here and increase his cultivation level. At the same time, he would secretly observe the Golden Palace to see if there was anything suspicious. If there was nothing, he would simply live in seclusion here. After his cultivation level improved, if he could cultivate to the Golden Core State, it would not be too late for him to return to the world.
Although he had been here for ten years, he still maintained the thinking of a Dao cultivator. A temporary setback was nothing, and he didn't care even if it was ten or twenty years. As long as he had enough cultivation level, any problem could be solved.
To prevent his whereabouts from being exposed, he set up another array outside the mountain and buried array flags at the foot of the mountain before returning to the cave abode.
However, although he had a good idea, he felt waves of fluctuations in the array after half a month. It was obvious that someone was attacking the array. It was obvious that the people from the Golden Palace had used some method to find their whereabouts.
Wu Shangqiu used his ritual to look and realized that there were more people than before. There were also a few Golden Palace priests who were dressed similarly. It seemed like they were not people that he could deal with at the moment.
He sighed. Since he had already taken a step back, wouldn't it be better to continue like this? Did they really have to force him to this step?
He thought about it and found his son and daughter. He said, "Zhong 'er, Nan' er, do you still remember the place that father told you to remember?"
Zhong 'er nodded vigorously. "Father, I remember."
Nan 'er also said, "Father, I remember too."
Wu Shangqiu stuffed the talisman to control the flying boat into their hands and solemnly said, "In a moment, Father and Mother will lead those people away. You two go to that place and take out an item that Father buried there."
