Chapter 1222

"So you weren't dead after all. Zhou You put on a show to fool all of us!"

When Liu Fengji saw Liu Jinguo come back to life and appear before him, he was shocked and subconsciously blurted out the 'insider information' he had guessed. Not only did Liu Jinguo reappear alive, but her strength had also undergone a tremendous transformation.

The attacking group of powerful witch warriors consisted of at least twenty strong martial artists, led by a strong martial artist at the eighth level.

Both the total number of people and the number of experts at each level are more than ten times that of them.

Such a lineup is in line with the style of the sorcerers: once they find a target, they will use all their strength to destroy it.

Originally, Liu Fengji and his companions were destined to die tonight.

Suddenly, Liu Jingguo appeared out of nowhere and quickly wiped out the attacking witches, piling their corpses on the roadside.

The surviving rebel warriors broke out in a cold sweat and looked at Liu Jingguo with reverence.

"You all disperse, shake off your pursuers, and then meet at the agreed safe location. Don't forget to bring supplies."

Liu Fengji was the leader of the group that stabbed the base here. He knew that the witches had discovered the secret nest and that they had to move there as soon as possible.

He quickly gave the order, and his warriors fled.

Liu Jingguo watched him calmly and decisively without saying a word. In a short while, the base was completely evacuated, and there was no third survivor.

"Jingguo, the Liu family is gone, but you are still alive. That's wonderful, wonderful!"

When Liu Fengji saw his relative again, he put aside all the past conflicts and unpleasantness and was only happy to see his family.

His chest felt like it was about to explode; he had countless questions he wanted to ask.

But then he heard Liu Jingguo ask him, "Once I find the nearby sorcerers, I'll kill them all!"

"That won't do. There are too many powerful witches among the sorcerers. It's like their Gu worms laying eggs; they lay a whole nest at once. It's the same in every battle. No matter how hard we try, we can't kill them all!"

"And they also have many shaman leaders. Every time they go out, they use their numbers to bully the few. The Lord is one of them..."

When the Prefect was mentioned, Liu Fengji paused for a moment, "Don't be sad too. The Prefect sacrificed himself heroically. It was those shamans who lacked martial ethics!"

Upon hearing the news of the prefect's death, Liu Jingguo's eyes trembled. "Help me find my enemies. I want to wipe them all out, leaving no one alive!"

After a brief conversation, Liu Fengji noticed that Liu Jinguo had become cold and unapproachable, perhaps because she had practiced some kind of secret technique that drastically changed her temperament.

However, there are no flaws in its qi, blood, and physique, so it is not an evil spirit in disguise, nor is it a counterfeit with a similar appearance.

Seeing her resolute attitude, Liu Fengji sighed and pointed to the distance, "Beixuan Prefecture, since the death of the prefect, has fallen into the hands of the sorcerers. There are many things that cannot be discussed in detail, otherwise you will be furious."

"By the way, the culprits who besieged the Lord of the Underworld are now stationed there, including two sorcerers at the Earth Sect level."

As a member of the Earth Sect and an outstanding grandmaster of the Northern Profound Crimson, it would require at least two Earth Sect members to join forces to kill him through a combined attack. Liu Jingguo nodded, "Let's go to the city!"

This base is not far from the capital city!

A moment later, Liu Jinguo and Liu Fengji arrived outside the city and saw that the city wall was covered with cracks and holes, looking like it had been through a great war.

The farmland and manors outside the city are now occupied by the witches' poison pools and altars, looking as ugly as tumors.

"Fu Jun!"

Liu Jinguo muttered to herself, her heart stirred when she heard this title.

Although she was created by Zhou You through the concept of "One Thought Without Form," she was completely different from the other clones.

Lu Zhigang and the others were all people Zhou You was used to using, and their consciousnesses were aligned. However, Liu Jingguo, this clone, had always served as a backup since her birth and had never descended into Zhou You's consciousness.

The Liu Jinguo before them seemed like a blank sheet of paper after being reborn. Apart from the strength that Zhou You had forcibly promoted, she was like a newborn.

But in her memory, there were still those important impressions and memories, among which her master, the Prefect, was one. Seeing the traces of the great battle in the Prefectural City, she finally realized the reality that the Prefect was dead, and a chord in her heart was touched.

"Liu, a heroine of the Liu family, has returned to kill! Come out!"

The sound spread throughout the city, and countless people subconsciously looked up at the sky, realizing that a great change was about to happen.

Many of the surviving elderly people couldn't believe it when they heard the name, saying, "Wasn't Liu Jinguo dead?"

Back then, Liu Jinguo was in danger of being corrupted by a demon, and her good friend Zhou Youyi stepped in and killed her.

With the prefect's endorsement, the Liu family did not pursue the matter further.

Many years have passed in the blink of an eye. Zhou You is gone, the Prefect is gone, and Liu Jinguo, who should have died many years ago... has returned.

Daqian Martial Arts School...

A tall, handsome young man stood before Qi Qingdi with great respect. He was dressed in human attire, and only his appearance revealed traces of a shaman.

Qi Qingdi, now middle-aged, closed his eyes and said, "Don't come anymore. I've seen you come every day, sweeping the floor, fetching water, wiping the doors and windows, and driving away those troublemakers."

“However, I cannot accept you as my apprentice.”

The young man was a shaman, and a nobleman among them; his grandfather was one of the chief shamans.

He listened to Qi Qingdi's words without getting angry or frustrated. "Master Qi, those witch leaders did something inappropriate and were suspected of taking advantage of others' misfortunes. I sincerely want to become a disciple of Daqian."

"Therefore, as I said on my first day here, I will not use my family's power to oppress or bind people with personal relationships."

"I will continue to wait until the owner agrees."

Qi Qingdi shook her head, "You're a good child, but you're a witch, I can't..."

He suddenly opened his eyes and punched the young man. "Get lost! Don't think you can fool me with your pretense. The human race and the witch race are sworn enemies."

"Don't even think about learning your master's martial arts and tarnishing his posthumous reputation!"

Caught off guard, the young man was struck. The powerful attack, at the level of a martial arts master, caused him to stagger back a few steps, but surprisingly, he was not seriously injured. Clearly, he was exceptionally talented and came from an extraordinary background.

An aura of a late-stage powerful martial artist rose from outside the martial arts hall. "Young master, he doesn't know what's good for him, should we..."

"roll!"

The young man said coldly, "If you dare to show your face again, I'll take your life!"

The powerful aura vanished instantly.

The young man turned to Qi Qingdi with a respectful attitude, "Master Qi, I know you deliberately attacked me just now to provoke me into killing you, but you were afraid of going too far and harming innocent people. Your intentions were good!"

"Since I want to become your disciple, I will naturally treat you as my master. If I displease you, you may punish me as you please."

"Let me state beforehand that I have already informed the tribespeople that regardless of life or death, they must not cause trouble for Master Qi or anyone around him!"

Qi Qingdi closed her eyes. "You are someone important, so I can't pass on your master's skills to you!"

"Who can predict what the future holds?"

The young man let out a breath, "Master Qi, please wait a moment, I'll go make you some tea!"

The Daqian Martial Arts Hall beneath their feet appeared particularly desolate and bleak, with no other living person present besides the two of them.

Not far away, on an open ground, next to a large cauldron covered in verdigris, a banner fluttered in the wind.

Qi Qingdi was filled with sorrow when suddenly she heard, "The heroine of the Liu family, you've returned to kill! Come out!"
