I, the ninth grade county magistrate, scare the empress to tears at the beginning!

Because he wants to be the strongest person in the world!
In this way, we can control the entire Shenzhou continent!
So all I have to do is wait for him.

Thinking of this, Lu Yuan arranged everything and placed it near his residence.

In order to prevent it from leaking out, he even did everything himself.

Apart from Jiang Linglong and Dugu Aoyun, no one else knew about it.

After three full days, everything was finally arranged. Outside the residence were traps and formations that were enough to trap the opponent firmly in the formation.

Even if I can't hurt him, I can make sure he has nowhere to escape!

As for whether he can be executed at that time, it depends on Lu Yuan's ability.

At this moment, Dugu Aoyun walked in. "Something happened. I just got the news that a city lord died. Not only that, all the women in the family, including the children, are dead!"

"But at the scene, we did not find the child's body!"

Lu Yuan stood up suddenly. The absence of a child meant that the other party did not kill him, but why did he take the person away?
He thought about it and only one thing made sense.

That is, Baidi wants to use these children to activate an evil formation, or to help himself practice!

Children are different from adults. Their bodies are pure and flawless, making them the best cauldrons for cultivation.

However, this move is too evil and no one has used it for many years, and it has almost been abandoned.

Those who were able to inherit were basically the hiding demon cultivators. They didn't dare to show their heads at all, otherwise, once they were discovered, they would be hunted down to the ends of the earth!
Lu Yuan and Dugu Aoyun rushed to the place where the city lord was killed, which was right in the middle of the Shenzhou continent.

This city lord was a rare and powerful man, but now he has turned into a mummy, and next to him are his wife, sister, and even his old mother lying in pieces.

Seeing this scene that was like hell on earth, Dugu Aoyun punched the wall in anger, "This Baidi is really looking for death. He has been harming people again and again. Isn't he afraid of being punished by God?"

Lu Yuan sneered, "If he was afraid, he wouldn't have absorbed the artifact. What he has always wanted to do is to change his fate and become the king of this world!"

"It is even possible that he... wants to become the Heavenly Dao!"

Baidi's ambition is far greater than theirs. It can even be said that Baidi is the most ambitious person in the world!
Everyone who knows him can see what he is thinking and his dissatisfaction with the entire cultivation world!

Lu Yuan turned his head and said, "Come here, give this family a proper burial!"

This city lord had been very kind to his people, had done many good things, and was loved by them. It would be too cruel to let him be left to die in the wilderness.

His female relatives and grown-up sons were also buried together.

I hope they can still be a family in the next life, or be reborn into a good family.

After arranging everything, Lu Yuan began to look for traces at the scene.

His eyes were fixed on a screen. There was a small scar on the lower part of the screen, which was almost invisible if you didn't look closely.

Judging from the scratches and the bloodstains, it must have been done by someone with no cultivation.

If the person is a cultivator, there is no need to scratch with fingers, and there will be no bleeding.

Dugu Aoyun understood, "Is this... the place where the child once struggled?"

Lu Yun nodded. "Since this Baidi gave the child a chance to struggle, it means that he didn't want to use force at that time. This is strange."

"Even if he wants to practice and become stronger and needs to sacrifice children, he shouldn't be so gentle. Could it be that he has other secrets?" The two were looking for more clues.

Just at this moment, several of the city lord's men ran over.

It turned out that when the city lord was killed, there was a huge commotion, and all of their subordinates rushed over, but they were all knocked to the ground by the evil cultivators.

But the strange thing is that the evil cultivator did not take their lives, but only killed the city lord and his family.

They also took their little son away.

When taking him away, the other party held the young master in his arms.

One of his men said hurriedly, "We have already tracked the aura of that demon cultivator. If you let me go with you, we will definitely be able to find him!"

Lu Yuan shook his head. "It's useless even if you record it. If you don't believe it, you can find it yourself."

His subordinate clenched his teeth. Of course he knew it. He thought it was because he was too weak that he lost the breath.

But now it seems that the other party may have very sophisticated secret methods!

"Our city lord can't just die like this, he is a truly good man!"

"I know." Lu Yuan asked him to describe the scene in detail.

The subordinate said, "The city lord and his family were having dinner at the time. Suddenly, a shout was heard and many bowls and chopsticks fell to the ground, making a loud noise."

"We rushed in as soon as we heard it, but it was too late. In just a short time, the city lord and his family were all turned into mummies!"

"The young master grabbed the screen at the time, crying and saying he didn't want to leave. Unexpectedly, the demon cultivator actually picked him up and left..."

"He didn't do anything to us!"

Lu Yuan pondered for a moment and asked, "Do you remember what that demon cultivator looked like?"

"Remember, it's a woman, a woman."

Baidi is clearly a man. Even if he castrated himself, the yin energy in his body would not prevail over the yang energy so quickly, and it is even more impossible for him to directly turn into a woman!
It seems that he has changed into a new body. If he wants to completely cut off his breath, changing the body is indeed the best way.

But how could he do it, change bodies in such a short time, and how did he manage to integrate himself perfectly?
Suddenly, Lu Yuan thought of a possibility!
It is very likely that this Baidi lost his own skin due to absorbing the divine weapon, so he needs to keep relying on other people's bodies.

So what kind of existence is he now?
"It's bad, it's bad!" One of his men rushed in again, his face changed drastically, "Several more children in the city have been abducted and are heading towards the West Mountain!"

Lu Yuan and Dugu Aoyun looked at each other, and without saying a word, they immediately chased after him.

Xishan is the largest mountain range near the city. It stretches endlessly and there are many spiritual beasts in the mountains and forests.

The local people didn't dare to go too deep. It was said that there was a palace left by an immortal at the deepest part, with a giant dragon sitting inside it, protecting all the immortal's belongings and not allowing others to touch them.

Anyone who saw the giant dragon was dead.

But this is just a legend, no one knows whether it is true or not.

Lin Xuan looked at Xishan and said, "Let's go in!" (End of this chapter)
