This humble Taoist priest, Qianhe, begins his quest for immortality by slaying demons and monsters.

Chapter 62 Evil Cultivators in Renjia Town, Corpse Refining Demonic Heavenly Sect

Seeing Lin Fengjiao's solemn expression, Zhong Bai couldn't help but frown slightly.

"Does Senior Brother Lin know anything?"

Lin Fengjiao was a little surprised when Zhong Bai asked her a question, but then she realized what he meant.

"It's normal that Junior Brother Qianhe is unaware of this matter as he is in the Enforcement Hall."

Both Taoism and Buddhism deeply abhor such evil cultivators who refine corpses.

Therefore, it is unlikely that any heretical cultivator would choose to take such a path, except for that sect!
Corpse Refining Demon Heavenly Sect!
This sect was destroyed a thousand years ago by a coalition of Buddhism and Taoism for stealing the bodies of the founders of various sects to refine corpses.

Three hundred years ago, the Corpse Refining Demon Sect was resurrected, but was wiped out again by Longhu Mountain.

What my senior brother is worried about is that this evil cultivator and feng shui master is a member of the Corpse Refining Demon Heaven Sect. If so, it means that the Corpse Refining Demon Heaven Sect has been resurrected!
Whether it's Maoshan or Longhushan, their relationship with this sect is almost always one of irreconcilable conflict.

If the Corpse Refining Demon Heavenly Sect were to make a comeback, we would need to be extremely cautious, follow the clues carefully, and then report the matter to the sect!

Taking a deep breath, Lin Fengjiao hoped that the feng shui master wasn't a disciple of the Corpse Refining Demon Sect...

Zhong Bai remained silent as well.

However, being skilled and daring, Zhong Bai had no intention of letting the feng shui master escape from his grasp, whether he had learned corpse refining on his own or was a disciple of the Corpse Refining Demon Heaven Sect!

"Senior Brother Lin, let's capture that evil feng shui master first."

"right!

Tomorrow is the day of the burial of the Ren family patriarch, and it seems that the feng shui master will be present.

Moreover, if they want to refine corpses, they must have already made preparations in the tomb. The only thing to watch out for is the Ren family's attitude.

Zhong Bai didn't care about the Ren family's attitude, since he wasn't stationed in Renjia Town anyway.

Well, if the Ren family doesn't know what's good for them, Zhong Bai feels he can reason with them using his fists.

"In that case, we'll know the outcome tomorrow."

Zhong Bai's words made Lin Fengjiao's mind heavy. She did not refute him, but stood quietly in the place and pondered.

Seeing this, Zhong Bai didn't disturb them and went straight to the room Wen Cai had prepared for him...

The next morning.

When Zhong Bai pushed open the door, Lin Fengjiao was already prepared, with a Qiankun bag on her waist, which should contain magical artifacts and talismans.

Zhong Bai's approach is much simpler and more direct.

After leaving the house, the two went straight to the Ren family's residence.

Renfu.

The old master of the Ren family was no ordinary man. In addition to being the richest man in Renjia Town, he was also the county magistrate of Ping'an County. Although his official position was not high, he still had some influence in Ping'an County.

The wealthy merchants and shopkeepers who came to offer their condolences almost filled the entire Ren residence.

When Zhong Bai and Lin Fengjiao arrived, it was just the time for them to set off with the coffin.

At first glance, Zhong Bai's gaze fell on the hunched-over middle-aged man in front of the coffin!
The feeling was intense. The stench of death emanating from the other person might be imperceptible to ordinary people, but Zhong Bai could still detect the clues upon careful examination.

"Senior Brother Lin, look!"

Zhong Bai subtly guided Lin Fengjiao to look at the hunchbacked feng shui master with his eyes. If Zhong Bai hadn't reminded her, Lin Fengjiao wouldn't have been able to smell the faint stench of corpse on the man.

"It must be him..."

"Junior Brother Qianhe, there's no rush. It's best to make your move when there are fewer people around!"

Zhong Bai nodded. There were too many people around now, and capturing him would easily lead to a leak.

Following the clues, the key is to do it secretly.

"Master Lin has arrived too!"

Hurry, please come quickly...

Today is the day of my father's burial, and it is a great blessing for the Ren family that Master Lin has come to oversee the proceedings.

As the new head of the Ren family, Ren Fa was saddened by his father's passing, but life had to go on. He knew who to respect and who to disregard among those who came to pay their respects.

Coincidentally, Lin Fengjiao is someone who deserves special respect.

"Who is this?"

Looking at Zhong Bai beside Lin Fengjiao, Ren Fa felt that this person had an extraordinary aura.

So I'd like to get to know them.

The saying "more friends, more paths" is essential, in Ren Fa's view.

"He is my junior brother, Daoist Qianhe!"

After Lin Fengjiao finished speaking, Zhong Bai smiled slightly at Ren Fa. "This humble Taoist, Qianhe, greets you!"

"Oh my! So it's your junior brother, Daoist Lin! Tsk tsk tsk, Daoist Qianhe looks so young but has such an extraordinary bearing. No wonder I could spot you in the crowd at a glance."

"It is a great honor for the Ren family that the Taoist priest could attend the ceremony!"

A brief exchange of pleasantries...

Zhong Bai and Lin Fengjiao acted as if nothing was wrong, and did not deliberately look at the hunchbacked feng shui master.

The auspicious time has arrived, time to carry the coffin!
"Filial son, clear the way, lift the coffin!"

With a loud voice ringing out, the grand procession set off.

The middle-aged hunchbacked feng shui master walking at the front couldn't help but let a cold glint flash in his eyes as he looked at Zhong Bai and Lin Fengjiao, who had followed them all the way.

"These two Maoshan disciples are truly fearless, but... if they discover something is wrong with the tomb later, it will be troublesome."

His surname was Wu, but he had forgotten his given name.

Everyone else in the sect called him Old Mo Wu.

Twenty years ago, by chance, I joined the Corpse Refining Demon Heaven Sect. Over the years, I have been hiding and working as a corpse refiner.

The reason they targeted Old Master Ren was because he had served as an official in the imperial court during his lifetime.

As for why the sect wanted him to target Old Master Ren for this corpse refining, Wu Laomo didn't understand. He just needed to raise the corpse according to the sect's requirements.

Along the way, Zhong Bai noticed that Wu Laomo was secretly observing him and Lin Fengjiao several times.

Clearly, Wu Laomo had not anticipated that Zhong Bai and Lin Fengjiao would follow him all the way.

"Damn it, they're still following me..." Despite the turmoil in his heart, Wu Laomo maintained a calm demeanor.

Soon, the group arrived at the cemetery.

Upon arriving at the place, Lin Fengjiao began to survey the surrounding feng shui layout.

"The acupoints where a dragonfly skims the water..."

Lin Fengjiao, as expected of someone skilled in Feng Shui and Qimen Dunjia, was able to roughly deduce the Feng Shui layout of the place with just a glance at the surroundings.

"If the dragonfly skims the water well, it means the descendants will prosper; if it does... hehe, so that's what he was planning. Turning living water into stagnant water, turning the earth's energy into negative energy, this feng shui master is quite something!"

Zhong Bai, standing nearby, was somewhat surprised to hear Lin Fengjiao's evaluation of the feng shui master.

It's clear that the other party is no ordinary person, so we need to be careful in this operation.

"Senior Brother Lin, please move back a bit..."

Zhong Bai spoke softly at this moment, and Lin Fengjiao nodded in agreement. They couldn't possibly go up and see clearly the feng shui arrangement in the tomb, as that would alert the feng shui master.

The reason they followed them all the way was to prevent the feng shui master from escaping while descending the mountain.

Therefore, he always followed the team.

Now is not the best time to take action.

"Master Ren, your father was buried in this burial site, and his descendants will surely have smooth sailing and great wealth!"

"Haha, Master Wu is right!"

Ren Fa smiled, and Wu Laomo finally breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that Zhong Bai and Lin Fengjiao did not approach the tomb.

"The so-called 'lime covering the top, dragonfly skimming the water' layout is almost complete. Master Ren, shall we begin the burial now?"

"Yes, yes, we can't be late. Thank you, Master Wu!"

"Mr. Ren, you're too kind..."

Wu Laomo had a smile on his lips, but deep within that smile lay a look of resentment and malice!
"Lower the coffin!"

As the coffin was lowered upright and the burial was completed, Old Mo Wu said earnestly, "Master Ren, you must remember this: a light touch is not enough. Twenty years is the limit. After twenty years, Master Ren, you must remember to relocate your father's grave."

Hearing the feng shui master's instructions, Ren Fa nodded earnestly. "Don't worry, Master Wu, I'll remember!"

"That's good...that's good!"

With a wicked smile, Wu Laomo quickly directed the servants hired by the Ren family to complete the burial.

When they arrived, the place was bustling with people, but when they came down the mountain, there were actually only a few people left. Most of them had already left the mountain when the coffin was placed on the ground.

Therefore, on the way down the mountain, Wu Laomo followed Ren Fa, while Zhong Bai and Lin Fengjiao kept a certain distance from the feng shui master.

"That's about it, Junior Brother Chizuru!"

"Yes, it's about time to close the net..."

Zhong Bai smiled faintly, then his figure suddenly shot out, instantly using the Lightning Escape Technique to teleport behind Wu Laomo.

In an instant, five fingers gripped Wu Laomo's spine, and a burst of lightning was released. Wu Laomo didn't even have the strength to speak before the world spun around him.

Ren Fa continued walking forward, completely unaware that Wu Laomo beside him was acting strangely.

Carrying Wu Laomo, Zhong Bai disappeared into the dense forest on the way down the mountain in a flash.

When Ren Fa came to his senses and noticed that Master Wu was not beside him, he only frowned in confusion and did not take it seriously.

Zhong Bai's movements were so fast that even Lin Fengjiao couldn't help but marvel!

In the dense forest, when Lin Fengjiao arrived, Zhong Bai had already used his true essence to roughly examine Wu Laomo's condition.

"How is it, Junior Brother Qianhe?"

Zhong Bai's expression was somewhat solemn.

“Senior Brother Lin, this person’s cultivation is not weak, around the fourth level of Qi Refining, but his true essence is mixed with the five poisons, so he is undoubtedly an evil cultivator.”

Upon hearing this, Lin Fengjiao said softly, "Junior Brother Qianhe, wake him up..."

"That's it!"

Zhong Bai stopped transmitting lightning through his five fingers, and Wu Laomo, who had been unconscious, gradually regained his senses.

Opening his eyes, he saw Zhong Bai and Lin Fengjiao looking at him with seriousness and murderous intent.

He swallowed hard, gulping down his saliva.

Wu Laomo realized that he had been exposed.

"you……"

"Shut up!
"If I ask and you answer, perhaps I can grant you a quicker death. If you don't cooperate, I guarantee you'll suffer a fate worse than death!"

As Zhong Bai spoke, lightning reappeared in his palm, and the aura of the sixth level of Qi Refining swept over him, leaving Wu Laomo with no thought of resistance.

Lin Fengjiao, standing to the side, stared wide-eyed at Zhong Bai. No, when did her junior brother Qianhe reach the sixth level of Qi Refining without a word?

Lin Fengjiao, disregarding her shock at Zhong Bai's cultivation level, also released her own Qi Refining Level 4 aura and looked at Wu Laomo.

"Tell me, was the idea of ​​turning the Ren family patriarch into a zombie your own decision, or was it required by the sect behind you..."

You only have one chance. If you dare to lie, you should understand the consequences!

Lin Fengjiao spoke coldly. She was always kind and gentle to ordinary people, but she would never show mercy to evil spirits and demonic cultivators!

With a heavy sigh, Wu Laomo knew he had no way out, but he still wanted to use the sect's reputation to intimidate the other party.

This was his last struggle.

"Lin Fengjiao, right?"

If I told you about my background, you would be terrified. I am a disciple of the Corpse Refining Demon Heaven Sect!
"Although your Maoshan sect is powerful, offending my Corpse Refining Demon Heavenly Sect won't end well for you!"

Clearly, Wu Laomo was just a nobody in the Corpse Refining Demon Heaven Sect, and he didn't even know the connection between the Corpse Refining Demon Heaven Sect and the righteous path.

It's laughable that they even tried to use the Corpse Refining Demon Heaven Sect to threaten Lin Fengjiao and Zhong Bai.

Zhong Bai and Lin Fengjiao exchanged a glance. The Corpse Refining Demon Heavenly Sect—this matter had become serious…
