The cold wind blew the broken corners of his clothes, like burning black flames. Under the moonlight, the boy's face was stern as he put the incomplete black knife into its sheath.
"I won, I really won!" Li Sangqi looked at the back, feeling his heart beating like a drum and a bright light shining in his eyes.
Her little face was full of surprise, and her eyes were slightly moist. Because of this terrible trickster, she had not slept well for a day during this period, and she was always in that depressing atmosphere.
She had seen the three officials being beaten and suppressed before, and listening to Liu Feng and the others' judgment of the deceitful people, she originally thought that she would not be able to escape the fate of being killed no matter what.
But now, the adult kills her, which means that she will not be ravaged by the treacherous groom, let alone have her life taken away again.
Gudong... Liu Feng swallowed his saliva and looked at the captain standing in the cold wind, "That is the ninth level of blood-containing strength, and he was killed by the captain like this?"
Only after fighting against the trickster can one deeply understand the strength of the opponent, the substitute who can be transformed at any time, and the unpredictable sharp kicks.
Even if he and Xu Yan teamed up, they didn't get any benefits, and they almost felt like they were being suppressed and beaten.
But in the hands of the captain, the trickster even used the stand-in paper man at the bottom of the box, the situation was still one-sided, and the battle was smooth.
Especially the knife he handed out at the end. If Liu Feng was placed in that kind of environment, he would never have the confidence to move forward bravely in that kind of predicament.
"The captain's strength is actually on par with the trickster."
Xu Yan has rich experience and has seen more, "But what's great about him is that he can accurately grasp the situation. Once he takes action, he will act resolutely without any hesitation."
Having said this, his stiff face forced out a smile, "I somewhat regret my previous decision."
Ding Yu knew that he was talking about taking sides, so he helplessly laughed at himself: "Who would have thought that our captain has such strength?"
With such terrifying combat power, it is normal for Hu Chongshan to be crushed by him. It will not be difficult for him to even surpass Deputy Commander Hu in the future.
At this time, the young man in the night shouted, "Ding Yu, hurry up and ask the spirit. I want to know his identity."
"Yes, captain." Ding Yu suddenly became excited and quickly stood up and ran over.
Ding Yu came to Lu Chen's side, looked at the burnt corpse, couldn't help but gasped, and then quickly pinched the seal and cut the sword finger.
When blood started to flow out, she pressed her sword finger to the crooked man's brow.
The so-called spirit questioning refers to a method in which a stranger borrows the power of blood and opens a special seal to search the memory of a corpse or ask it to answer questions.
And this method, except under special circumstances, avoids searching the memory.
Because we don’t know the enemy’s memory, if we come into contact with information about the evil god, it is very likely to lay the foundation for disaster, and we will be deceived and contaminated by strange things in the future.
Click, click... The charred corpse made a sound, and his jaw twisted, his eyes slowly opened, and his mouth opened and closed aimlessly.
Ding Yu then said, "Captain, you can ask, but it needs to be done as soon as possible. I won't be able to hold on for long."
Lu Chen nodded, looked down at the weirdo, and asked his first question, "What force do you belong to, and why are you pretending to be weird in Blackwater Village."
The trickster opened and closed his mouth, "I am a member of the Celestial God Cult. Under the order of Lord Cha, I will carry out the sacrificial ceremony in Heishui Village."
Sure enough, it was Master Cha's method again... Lu Chen's eyes flashed and he asked, "What is the content of the sacrifice?"
"Sacrifice the lives of women over fifteen and under twenty years old to attract the attention of the great being." The trickster's eyes rolled around.
"Besides this, what other purpose is there?" Lu Chen asked.
The trickster opened and closed his mouth and said ruthlessly: "Cooperate with the internal staff of the Zhigui Department to kill the person named Lu Chen."
Hearing this answer, Ding Yu's pupils shrank, his face full of disbelief. There was a spy in the Zhiguai Department, and that person...
Lu Chen raised his brows slightly and his eyes became particularly sharp. If the other party had this purpose, he must be allowed to come to Blackwater Village.
And it was Deputy Commander Hu of the Monsters Division who asked him to go to Blackwater Village to solve the strange incident!
"Did this matter come under the instigation of Hu Yue, the Director of the Strange Monsters?" Lu Chen asked in a deep voice.
The trickster's tone became sluggish, as if something was preventing him from telling the secret. After a long while, he said with difficulty: "Yes."
"Doesn't this mean that Vice Commander Hu is the traitor of the Tianshen Sect in the Zhiguai Division?" Ding Yu opened his eyes wide and couldn't believe the answer.
Liu Feng and Xu Yan, who came from behind, felt their scalps numb and their faces full of shock when they heard the news.
"How to find Mr. Cha?"
Lu Shenmei directly asked Master Cha for information, fearing that like the fox man last time, his soul would be annihilated before the information was spoken.
"White Tiger Gang, Yanyu Tower..." The trickster's eyes were blood red, and he suddenly lost his life.
Ding Yu looked ugly, shook his head and said: "The anti-tracking method was triggered, and the soul was expelled by the method buried in advance."
She looked at Liu Feng and Xu Yan, then moved her gaze to Lu Chen, "I thought it was just a strange incident, but I didn't expect that Deputy Commander Hu was involved."
"So Hu Chongshan's suppression of the captain was an order from Deputy Commander Hu. I'm still wondering why he suddenly targeted the newcomer." Xu Yan frowned, glanced at the expressionless Lu Chen, and said, "But why did he kill the captain?"
"According to my previous speculation, Hu Yue should have been involved in the Daoxiang Village incident. This is the only possible connection between him and me."
Lu Chen's eyes flickered, "Maybe he slipped something up in the village, and I am from Daoxiang Village and solved the strange incident.
"In this way, no matter whether I discover his problem or not, he will find a way to kill me and nip the crisis in the cradle."
"What should we do now? This is one of the three commanders of the Zhigui Division." Liu Feng had an ugly expression. He did not expect to be involved in a crisis of this level.
Ding Yu looked solemnly and said in a deep voice: "We triggered the means he left behind. Deputy Commander Hu probably knows that he has been exposed."
Xu Yan frowned and sighed, "In this case, there are only two options, either leave the Zhiguai Department before the news leaks, or..."
"Either send someone to intercept us and block this news." Lu Chen sneered, his eyes sharp, "What do you think Vice Commander Hu will choose?"
"Captain, you may not know Vice Commander Hu. Although he looks kind, he is extremely violent in his heart and there is no grain of sand in his eyes."
Xu Yan said something and looked at Liu Feng and Ding Yu. The meaning was self-evident.
Lu Chen thought for a moment, "How strong is Deputy Commander Hu, or what are the methods of a bloodline alien?"
Hearing his question, everyone suddenly looked strange. Ding Yu quickly stopped him and said: "Captain, the bloodline realm is far beyond what we can fight against. You must not be impulsive!"
"A stranger in the Bloodline Realm, he uses his skills to develop nine major bloodlines. His strength can crush the ninth level of the Bloodline Realm, and he can also use various spells with the help of his bloodline."
Xu Yan also explained: "Deputy Commander Hu has the strange ability to kill the first and second levels of bloodline. Moreover, the bloodline has the power of thunder and lightning, which is a very lethal method."
"Sounds a bit powerful." Lu Chen groped his chin. Judging from the battle with the trickster just now, his strength is probably equivalent to the peak of the ninth level of Yunxue.
According to Xu Yan's description, there is still a big gap between him and the bloodline realm, and this gap may be difficult to make up for even the thirteenth level of the powerful Tiger Demon Fist.
Unless the Vigorous Tiger Demon Fist is allowed to evolve again and be promoted to a higher level of martial arts, it may be possible to have the initial strength to fight against the bloodline realm.
Thinking of this, Lu Chen brought up the panel.

[Martial Arts: Powerful Tiger Demon Fist (8/13), Concentration Technique (4/7)]
[Source species: 3 points]
Just after killing the trickster, I received 2 points of source seed, plus 1 point from the insect shadow monster, for a total of three points of source seed.
After adding all the powerful Tiger Demon Fist, it can only reach the eleventh level. There are still two points left to reach the full level, and it takes one more point to deduce the technique.
If you want to gain the fighting power of the bloodline realm, you need at least four more source seeds... Lu Chen shook his brows, and the progress of the Concentration Technique must not be slowed down. This is his ultimate move.
The sudden crisis made Lu Chen feel that he had become poor, and the source seeds were not enough.
He thought for a moment and asked, "Who is the fastest among the three of you?"
"The fastest one is definitely Ding Yu." Xu Yan thought: "She is famous for her speed. Even a fast horse can't keep up with her when she runs. She also has very good endurance."
Ding Yu couldn't help rolling his eyes. Why did this description sound like he wanted to hit someone?
"How is your injury? How long will it take to get back to Zhigui Division?" Lu Chen looked at Ding Yu.
Ding Yu pondered for a while, assessing his own condition, "I can rush back to the headquarters in the morning with all my strength. My injuries have recovered a lot. I will rush there as soon as possible to inform Commander Cheng."
"You set off now and notify Deputy Commander Cheng and the Chief Commander as soon as possible."
Lu Chen looked at Xu Yan and the two, "You are too seriously injured and it is not practical to rush now. We will set off tomorrow to attract their attention and allow Ding Yu to arrive safely."
Liu Feng and Xu Yan nodded in response. With their injuries, if they rushed on the road now, they would probably die on the road without the need for Deputy Commander Hu to take action.
At this time, Liu Feng looked at Ding Yu and said, "All hope is on you. You must come back in time."
Although Lu Chen's combat power was exceptionally strong, the person they faced this time was most likely Deputy Commander Hu who was in the bloodline realm, and there was no chance of winning.
We can only hope that Ding Yu can move in to rescue the troops in time.
Ding Yu pursed her lips tightly, glanced at the three of them, and said solemnly: "Captain, don't worry, I will definitely bring in reinforcements, and you must hold on."
After saying that, she turned around and left the village. Her movements were light and agile, and she disappeared into the darkness at the entrance of the village in just a few breaths.
Next, Lu Chen and the others returned to Li Dahu's home. Amidst the latter's gratitude, Liu Feng and Xu Yan began to adjust their breath and recover.
Lu Chen opened the panel and added the last three points of source seeds to the powerful tiger demon fist to face the possible crisis tomorrow.
