She became a god

The next day, Ye Qingzhou and Long Yi only saw endless blood.

Long Yi said gloatingly, "Judging from this, the Tiger Clan envoys might have been wiped out, right?"

Ye Qingzhou frowned. "Too fast. It shouldn't be like this."

Long Yi was puzzled. "These ghosts and monsters have the ability to influence time and space, and can also modify the content of invitations. They are also numerous. It is not unjust for the Tiger Clan envoys to die at their hands."

"I think they killed us because they saw we hadn't fallen for their tricks and assumed Hu Ling and the others were no longer useful. Hmph, they deserved to be plotted against us."

Ye Qingzhou smiled and said, "Your analysis is all correct, but you overlooked one point."

"what?"

"When we saw the Tiger Clan fellow cultivators yesterday, they were still alive. Wouldn't a group of living demons put up any resistance when they were killed?"

Long Yi was no fool; she quickly understood Ye Qingzhou's meaning: "You mean if Hu Ling really died, she would definitely have left us clues."

"Yes, when Hu Ling and the others were killed, they must have hated the ghosts who attacked them and hoped that fellow Daoists would help them avenge themselves. We had no grudges with them before yesterday, and their hatred for the ghosts was definitely greater than their hatred for us. This means that they would not have preferred to die silently rather than give us any clues."

Strangely, the two demons searched for a long time but couldn't find any trace, except for the bloodstains all over the ground.

Seeing that things had reached a stalemate, Ye Qingzhou, disregarding the potential consequences of exposing the Ice Soul Pearl, had no choice but to use it to seal the crime scene.

Long Yi praised, "That's great, we don't have to worry about accidentally destroying clues at the crime scene."

Ye Qingzhou said seriously, "We don't have much time left, we need to investigate quickly. When ice crystals encase objects, some subtle traces will become more obvious. I'll investigate to the west, you investigate to the east, and we'll meet at the north side of the courtyard in a bit."

Long Yi naturally had no objections.

Ye Qingzhou released the tribespeople and assigned them specific tasks.

With such a large yard, she didn't want to do everything herself.

Besides, the purpose of bringing the tribespeople out was to train them.

While munching on sunflower seeds and strolling leisurely, Ye Qingzhou unknowingly walked to the lakeside.

"The mountains are high, the waters are deep, the roads are long, the fish swim, and they have entered the sky."

"The mountains are low, the water is shallow, the road is narrow, the fish fly, and they end up on the table."

Another nursery rhyme?

Ye Qingzhou gritted her teeth secretly. This time she didn't hum a tune. Why did it come back to her again?

Suddenly, a faint, ethereal voice came, "Do you have a wish you desperately want to fulfill?"

Ye Qingzhou immediately shook his head vigorously, "No."

"Really? You really don't want anything?"

The voice was very soft, yet it inexplicably had the power to strike straight to the heart.

Ye Qingzhou said earnestly, "It really is, more real than real gold."

Do you want to see me?

Ye Qingzhou shook his head. "I don't want to right now."

The voice sounded disappointed. "How can you not want anything? Power, magical treasures, cultivation techniques, elixirs, cultivation levels, even godhood—I can help you obtain them all."

In an instant, Ye Qingzhou seemed to be sitting on a high and mighty throne, with piles of spirit stones, spiritual treasures, elixirs and peerless martial arts techniques flying all around him.

Ye Qingzhou glanced around casually and saw that the top-grade pills in the system exchange panel were just ordinary items in this palace, the supreme-grade purple spirit jade was only fit to be used as floor tiles, and the "Tales of the Underworld" was casually torn out to be used as manuscript paper.

If you look further down, all living beings across the nine continents and four seas are laid out before you.

If you look into the distance, you can vaguely see the blue planet and other worlds.
