"What? That's impossible! Vigilante A is just an awakened martial artist, how could he see through their true identities? " The middle-aged man exclaimed when he heard his wife's words. "They have treasures bestowed upon them by the Elder Ancestor. Hai Cheng, the famous' Scarlet Eyes', and Qiao Zishan, who cultivated morality for twenty years, couldn't see through them either. Their Morality Body was even broken by their Dance of the Heavenly Maidens! He's just a country bumpkin, how could he be so powerful? "
The middle-aged woman said hatefully, "It's the opposite, this Vigilante A is no country bumpkin! He must have been awakened by the will of an extremely famous hero from the outer realm. He already had an extremely deep cultivation base of Morality, which was why he could sense a trace of their demonic aura and smile as if he had found his prey!
Damn it, we've been busy preparing for the big event and didn't carefully analyze his information. We only read the Truth Department's report and thought he's from a small place. He only awakened his martial arts a few months ago. Even if he did chivalry every day, he wouldn't be able to accumulate a strong cultivation base of morality.
Even if we summoned the Celestial Dragon Form, it was only because of the crisis that we forgot to remind the three sisters. With Qiao Zishan as an example, the three sisters were careless and got wiped out. Damn it! "
"You can't blame us. We worked so hard to cultivate them. God knows how much effort it took to practice the Dance of the Heavenly Maidens. They're so stupid, always thinking that all men in the world are at their beck and call. They deserve to die! I'm afraid we'll ruin the Elder Ancestor's great plan, "the middle-aged man's tone was filled with anger, but he was defending himself and his wife.
Although the middle-aged man and woman were angry, there was no familial love in their tone. They were more annoyed at their failure.
"What do you think, brother? I've said it before, those three women aren't good people. It's all your fault for not seeing through their true colors. You always thought the eldest among them was nice. As a matter of fact, we've been chasing them all the way here, and we've discovered quite a number of their tails. We've finally discovered that they've suffered a huge setback in this small ravine. The only thing that surprised me was that they all died in an instant. I thought that the most cunning of them all would be able to escape, and then you would be able to take revenge yourself. Looks like I've underestimated that Vigilante A. "
At this time, the middle-aged man and woman suddenly heard a gentle voice, causing their expressions to change drastically.
They slowly turned around. Unbeknownst to them, two people had suddenly appeared on the hillside.
A young girl was leaning against an old man who looked to be around 35 or 36 years old, looking at the two with a charming smile.
"The First Pillar of the Northern Kingdom! Qiao Zishan! "The middle-aged man called out word by word with a hint of fear in his voice.
"I didn't expect you to really be demons. That's not a big deal, but you've actually eaten humans! When Zijiang told me about it, I couldn't believe it. Now that we have the recording, what else do you have to say? "The middle-aged man sounded like he was in pain.
The middle-aged woman smiled charmingly. "Look at what Zishan said. How could Uncle and Auntie be monsters? We were just joking just now. Eating people is impossible. How could Auntie do such a terrible thing?"
As she spoke, her eyes suddenly emitted a bright red light.
Qiao Zishan's eyes narrowed, and his body suddenly erupted with a white aura. This white aura was vast and mighty, filling up an area of thirty feet around him, instantly blocking the red aura.
The middle-aged woman immediately closed her eyes in pain, and two streams of blood slowly flowed down her face.
When the middle-aged man saw this, his voice was filled with even more fear and disbelief. "How is this possible? Your Morality Body was clearly destroyed by Shuang Er two years ago. Why is your Morality even stronger than before?"
Hearing the middle-aged man's words, a trace of deep-rooted hatred flashed in the young girl's eyes, but it quickly disappeared, not letting her brother see it.
"Hmph, you didn't expect my brother to be so talented. He has long overcome the imprint of a goddess that your daughter left in his heart. That ordeal actually helped him to master his Morality Body. Now that the three leaders of evil are dead, it's just right for him to vent his anger on you two demons! "The young girl said hatefully.
Qiao Zishan shook his head and patted the young girl's shoulder. "Alright, Zijiang, even if the other party is a demon, you don't have to lie. What you said after is true, but I was able to overcome the imprint of a goddess in my heart not because of my own efforts, nor was it 'long ago'. It's because the demon that left the imprint was eliminated one day, and I have to thank them properly in the future. "
"Brother," The young girl hugged her brother's arm, and said in a slightly dissatisfied tone, "I've already said that demons are not good things, but some old fellows always think that we can still coexist peacefully with them, thinking that as long as the other party obeys the law, we can still coexist, but they don't know that their nature is to treat humans as food."
Qiao Zishan shook his head. "The strategy of the higher-ups is not bad. Which big tree doesn't have a few parasites? To be inclusive, to unite all forces that can be united, and to deal with the drastic changes in the current situation, this is the strategy that was decided long ago. It's not like the higher-ups didn't notice their true colors, or maybe they're observing the nature of demons, which is why they haven't acted yet. It's just that I didn't expect them to hide so deeply, and to actually eat humans in secret. This is crossing the bottom line, unforgivable! "
As he said this, Qiao Zishan's eyes sharpened.
The middle-aged man heard this and laughed loudly, no longer trying to explain, "What a joke, so what if we eat a few of you, we're not a clan to begin with! Didn't you humans still capture and kill our relatives in this world? Their potential is not weak, it's just that they have no intelligence. Even so, until today, you have to be careful to protect the other weak things, lest they go extinct, but you can't do anything to them. "
Qiao Zijiang was stunned, and her eyes turned, "I know what kind of demons you are …"
The middle-aged man laughed coldly, "Then guess."
"There aren't many that can make the humans helpless in the past, and can develop intelligence in this era of vitality recovery. If I'm not wrong, the Bai family are all Rat Demons that descended and awakened, and rats' natural talent is to hide. As soon as the Truth Department was established, the Bai Family, as one of the cultivation families, took the initiative to send people into the Truth Department and contributed a lot. I'm afraid you've done a lot of things in the Truth Department over the years. You might even have bribed some people to survive until now. "Qiao Zijiang said confidently.
The middle-aged man was not surprised, "Hmph, you're really smart. People say that you, the 'female Zhuge', occupy three-quarters of the Qiao family's empire, and they're right."
When the girl heard this, she sneaked a glance at her brother, and was relieved when she saw that his expression did not change.
Then, Qiao Zijiang became confused again, "Wait, the Bai family has always been conscientious in the Truth Department, and you've made many great contributions, praised by everyone, and had a bright future. Even with the recovery of vitality, the difference between demons and humans will become wider, and eventually reveal their true colors, with the higher-ups' attitude, they won't be held responsible for anything. At most, they'll hit the ceiling. Why do you have to take such a dead end? "
The middle-aged man seemed to be very patient, and smiled coldly, "Hmph, is it a dead end if we don't have the same heart as you humans? If we can form our own clan and family, why do we have to listen to you humans every day? Hmph, when we first arrived, we were also shocked by the open-mindedness and tolerance of your world. We thought that you would really accept and treat everyone equally, and we even seriously taught you some basic cultivation methods, or else we wouldn't have been trusted. However, as your strength gradually increased, the number of arrogant people in the Truth Department also increased, and the number of people who have a prejudice against demons also increased. If this continues, sooner or later, we'll still end up in a situation where everyone hates us, so why don't we make plans to protect ourselves? "
After hearing this, Qiao Zishan's expression seemed to waver slightly, and the Morality around him suddenly shrank.
When Qiao Zijiang saw this, she immediately understood the man's sinister intentions, but she could not find any loopholes in his words, so she could not refute him.
She could only say, "Brother, don't be fooled by it. No matter what, it's a fact that it ate people!"
The Morality around Qiao Zishan finally stabilized and stopped shrinking.
The middle-aged man could not suppress the disappointment on his face, and scolded, "Damn you, you're so smart!"
When Qiao Zijiang saw the middle-aged man's disappointed face, she began to feel proud, but then she suddenly realized, "No, why do you have so much to say? Oh no, Brother, they're escaping! "
"You're really smart, we can't defeat the Body of Morality now. However, rats are naturally good at hiding. If you're so good, come and find us now! " The middle-aged man laughed, and then grabbed his wife, and the two of them turned into two giant rats at the same time. Then, they crashed into the ground, but the hard rocks were like tofu, and they disappeared in an instant.
Qiao Zishan and his sister quickly went forward to check.
It turned out that the middle-aged woman, who seemed to have an eye injury and had not spoken, had used her magical energy to dig an extremely deep hole in the ground.
Qiao Zishan controlled his Morality to probe into the hole, and shook his head, "There's already a tunnel in the depths of the hole, and it extends into the distance. It seems like they didn't choose this secluded valley randomly."
"Madam Bai is rumored to be extremely cunning, and it's true. Even a random place to stop would have a way out. I can't believe we let them escape this time. Without a suspect, it's hard to uproot the Bai family with just the recording. I can't get rid of the hatred in my heart, "Qiao Zijiang said hatefully, and stomped her feet.
…
Just when the Qiao siblings were vexed, thinking that they wouldn't be able to find the Bai couple, a heroic figure suddenly appeared not far behind them. Then, he jumped over a hill and a small ditch, running at high speed, as if he was chasing something purposefully.
In the System Space.
The System said, "They were blabbering a lot just now, and I couldn't understand what they were saying. Why didn't you let me do it? It would've been better to just kill those two red-named monsters, and I'd probably have accumulated enough experience points … "
Fang Ning said, "This information can't be bought no matter how much money you have. Gosh, the water is so deep, we shouldn't get involved. It's better for us to just cultivate and level up. I don't want to be led astray by them, and fall into a pit that I can't climb out of! "
The System said, "I don't know that much, but I do know that those two monsters must not split up, or else one of them will get away. This time, there might not be any allies to help with their location. If one of them really gets away, it'll all be on your head, and the reward for killing the monsters will be deducted. "
Fang Ning said, "You have no sense of the big picture. Fine, I don't care …"
The System said, "Then I'll cut off the internet for a week!"
