Longevity starts with choosing Hextech enhancement

Chapter 123 In the next life, don’t trust others so easily

Having the Zhu family's account books is equivalent to having solid evidence.

The next thing to do is to go to the Jing family and find out what is going on as soon as possible.

The reason they captured such a large number of independent cultivators was probably to perform some tricks like magic sacrifices.

The consequences of such things can be minor or major.

If it can be stopped in time, it will just be a case of collusion with demonic cultivators.

But if you go too late and the other party has already completed their plan, the outcome will be hard to predict.

However, the more urgent the time is, the less anxious you should be.

Xiao Chen first took the account book and went to the Chen family overnight to talk to Elder Chen.

After dawn tomorrow, which is the 16th day of the first lunar month, the Lihuo Gate will begin to resume operation.

Subsequent matters such as contacting other members of the sect, going to Zhu County to take over the Zhu family, and resettling the rescued independent cultivators were all entrusted to the Chen family.

Then he rushed to the Jing family, trying to buy time.

"Senior, help!"

However, as soon as Xiao Chen entered Jingchuan County on his sword, he saw many wandering cultivators fleeing for their lives.

When they saw a foundation-building cultivator coming, they immediately ran towards him and shouted for help.

Xiao Chen extended his spiritual sense and immediately saw a black bear chasing him not far ahead.

He lowered his sword and took a closer look.

The black bear's eyes were red and its body was covered in blood, and it was obviously in a violent state.

The aura emitted fluctuated greatly, sometimes it seemed like the eighth level of Qi Refining, and sometimes it was comparable to the Foundation Establishment stage.

When she saw him coming, she was not afraid, but instead pounced on him.

"Seven Star Sword Technique - Tianshu."

Xiao Chen pierced the black bear's chest with a sword and knocked it to the ground.

However, the black bear seemed to feel no pain, completely ignoring its injuries, and immediately struggled to get up from the ground.

And it waved its claws hard, as if it wanted to attack.

"Strange, is this a demonic spell?"

Xiao Chen added another sword strike, completely cutting off the black bear's neck, but he had a bad feeling in his heart.

"This is the Jing family's territory. Why didn't they come to deal with the black bear?"

Under normal circumstances, of course, we cannot rule out the possibility that the head of the Jing family is away and some evil cultivators took the opportunity to cause trouble.

But now, the Jing family should be an accomplice of the evil cultivators.

"Could it be that another group of people did it?"

While Xiao Chen was speculating, he hurried into the city.

At this time, Jingchuan County was already in chaos and smoke everywhere.

Many corpses lay on the road, and sporadic sounds of swords and knives came from the ruins.

Xiao Chen casually lifted up a roof and saw a monk with red eyes inside, chopping at two other monks with a sword.

All three of them are at the second level of Qi Refining.

At this point, the two men had no time to cast spells and could only raise their swords to block.

But they were obviously frightened by the crazy attack. The two of them tried to defend themselves but were unable to win.

"Green Thorn Technique."

Xiao Chen waved his hand, and vines sprouted from the ground, instantly binding the three of them tightly. "What's going on in the city?"

The red-eyed monk seemed to be oblivious to his question.

Still struggling desperately, trying to continue attacking.

He even ignored the vines and dislocated his arm.

The other two, however, were as if granted amnesty and quickly explained, "Senior, the Jing family has gone crazy and kills anyone they see."

"The city is now full of members of the Jing family. They even released their domesticated black bears. Even a great cultivator at the ninth level of Qi Refining was killed by the black bears." Jing family?

Xiao Chen looked at the red-eyed monk, and sure enough, he saw the word "Jing" embroidered in fine thread on the inner collar of his chest.

He removed the vines and killed the Jing family cultivator with a single blow of his sword.

Then he continued to take action, clearing out all the members of the Jing family who were wreaking havoc nearby and rescuing dozens of independent cultivators.

Then they arrived outside the Jing family compound.

This large mansion, covering several acres of land, is located in the center of the city and occupies the best location.

However, at this time, the Jing family compound was in ruins, with cracked and collapsed walls everywhere, and the nearby streets were littered with victims lying on the ground.

Many mortals may not realize what is happening, and their eyes are wide open and unable to close.

"Hiss~, could it be that he was silenced?"

Xiao Chen walked around the courtyard and found that there was no one inside.

Judging from the various remaining traces, such as the burnt rice in the pot, the tables and chairs that fell on the ground, and especially the large number of broken walls.

The Jing family seemed to be suddenly confused and went crazy collectively.

Their eyes were red and they were even unwilling to go out the door. Instead, they rushed out through the wall as fast as they could, killing anyone they saw on the street.

"It looks like it's some kind of magic that interferes with the mind."

Xiao Chen shook his head: "So, why would you collude with the demonic cultivators? Do you really think it will end well?"

Although he expressed his incomprehension of Jing Qiyuan's insane behavior.

But after searching Jingchuan County and clearing out the remaining members of the Jing family.

He still found a suspicious point.

"No one has encountered it in the entire city. There are traces of magic left by the Foundation Establishment cultivators. It seems that Jing Qiyuan should not be here."

"It's highly likely that he still doesn't know that the Jing family has been wiped out."

Judging from this situation, Xiao Chen even felt that Jing Qiyuan himself was in danger.

"Isn't he going to be silenced too?"

It seems that the clues in Jingchuan County have been cut off.

At this time, Xiao Chen actually hoped that Jing Qiyuan could successfully escape and destroy the other party's plan.

Although this hope is probably not very great.

"Uncle, please save my mother. She's bleeding so much. I'm so scared."

A little boy suddenly ran over and kowtowed to him as soon as they met.

Xiao Chen bent down and helped him up: "Don't worry, where is your mother? Take me there."

Since the clues have been cut off, he doesn't mind saving people first, even if it's just a mortal.

The little boy pointed outside the city: "Uncle, Mom is outside under the third willow tree. I can't carry her, so I have to come here by myself."

So far away?
Upon hearing this, Xiao Chen took a look and realized that the little boy was still barefoot.

Perhaps because I was in such a hurry to find someone that I didn't pay attention to the road, many small stones got into my feet, causing them to be covered in blood.

Judging from the situation, it seems that they won’t be able to walk anymore.

So he squatted down and said, "Come, uncle will carry you over there, and you help uncle to point the way, it will be faster this way."

"Thank you uncle."

Seeing this, the little boy didn't hesitate and walked up behind him and lay on top of him.

Then he put his two thin arms around his neck and hung himself.

Seeing that he was struggling to hold her, Xiao Chen pulled him back with both hands: "Is it outside the east gate? You can use your left hand to help uncle point the direction."

"Young man, let me teach you a lesson."

Suddenly, a slightly old voice sounded in Xiao Chen's ears.

"In your next life, don't trust others so easily."
