I am the villain in the book

Unable to lock onto target.

This was the first unexpected situation Wei Changtian had encountered while using all the directional tools in the system.

What does this mean?

Can't it be used on non-humans?

But the system clearly didn't state that it couldn't be used on "non-humans"!

Like Yun Lian before, whose true form was a fish demon, but she could still be locked onto by "Godstrike", right?

So what the hell is going on?!

Wei Changtian froze on the spot, his palm outstretched, but he didn't unleash any technique.

This caused the look of fear on the young man's face opposite him to dissipate a lot.

Seeing that Wei Changtian didn't seem to have the ability to kill him, he didn't utter any mocking words, but instantly broke through the wall and fled.

That's right, not smashing through, not flashing out, but directly passing through the wall.

Seeing this, Wei Changtian quickly chased after him, and Qin Zhengqiu casually struck Pei Dajun's chest with a palm, then leaped into the darkness of Fengyuan City.

"Whoosh!"

"Whoosh!"

"Whoosh!"

Lights illuminate thousands of homes on all sides of the city, a river of stars in the middle of the water.

If one were to stand at a high place and look down, Fengyuan City would appear quite beautiful.

But the three people constantly shuttling through the alleys and on the roofs had no mood to appreciate any of this.

Especially Wei Changtian.

As he got further and further away from the two figures in front, the expression on his face became more and more unsightly.

Demon Identification Compass: Unable to indicate target.

Godstrike: Unable to lock onto target.

Although the Soaring Step had been used to its limit, due to the difference in cultivation realms, Wei Changtian's speed was still much slower than Yama and Qin Zhengqiu's.

Seeing that he was about to completely "lose the target" in a few more breaths, a strange idea suddenly涌上 his mind.

Shouldering a round moon, body shining in all directions.

The Moon Picking Sword can hurt Yama!

"This..."

Wei Changtian didn't know why this strange thought had appeared, he only felt as if a large hand was pulling his arm, slowly drawing the Leaking Shadow from its scabbard.

This feeling of being manipulated was very uncomfortable, but Wei Changtian didn't have time to think about it, and followed that will to swing the sword forward.

"Clang!"

The sound of the sword was weak and short, only the silver moonlight outlined a shallow sword energy that shot towards the bean-sized black shadow.

Oh well, might as well try anything.

Wei Changtian didn't expect this strike to have any effect, after all, he had just seen Qin Zhengqiu continuously strike Yama with several palms, but none of them had harmed the latter in the slightest.

The most amazing thing about the Moon Picking Sword is that it allows warriors below the top three ranks to unleash attacks with "momentum", but Qin Zhengqiu's every move contained momentum, yet it didn't seem to be able to do anything to Yama.

So how could the Moon Picking Sword...

【Ding!】

【Detected that the host has successfully plundered a portion of the Heavenly Dao Child "Bai Youheng's" luck!】

【Reward System Points: 200】

?

Looking at the black shadow in the distance that had obviously paused for a moment, Wei Changtian was stunned at first, then instantly understood something.

Damn it! Yama is Bai Youheng's luck beast!

Luck beasts are not demons, so they won't be locked onto by the Demon Identification Compass!

This is why the other three luck beasts in my body have a deterrent effect on Yama!

And the current situation is obvious, although I don't know the reason, the Moon Picking Sword can indeed hurt, or even kill Yama!

"Grandpa! Use the Moon Picking Sword!!"

Shouting loudly, and summoning the chubby Yingyu from his body, Wei Changtian pointed to Qin Zhengqiu's back.

"Go, follow that person!"

"Whoosh!"

The Yingyu, which had been acting silly all along, seemed to finally understand the order, and immediately wagged its tail and chased after Qin Zhengqiu.

And just a few breaths after it swam in the night sky, Wei Changtian could no longer see Yama and Qin Zhengqiu's figures.

"Huff..."

Taking a deep breath, he slowly stopped.

Wei Changtian jumped from the roof back to the ground, looking with some worry at the increasingly smaller red fish, and casually put the Leaking Shadow back into its scabbard.

With the Yingyu there, Qin Zhengqiu shouldn't be affected by Yama's Eye, and Qin Zhengqiu also knows the Moon Picking Sword, maybe he can kill Yama.

Now the two have run away, I can't chase them anymore, I can only check on Pei Dajun's life and death first, and then go back to the Princess's mansion to discuss with Chu Xianping.

Having made up his mind, Wei Changtian was just about to walk back, but at this moment, several eagle cries suddenly sounded not far away.

"Chirp!"

"Chirp!!"

Huh?

What is this thing?

Oh, right, after plundering the luck of the Heavenly Dao Child, a part of the other party's luck beast will belong to me.

So, this thing is Yama's true form?

Looking at the little black leopard with wings in front of him, Wei Changtian clicked his tongue, saying that it looked just like the rumors.

Like an eagle but not an eagle, like a leopard but not a leopard.

Its appearance should be the ugliest of the four divine beasts he currently possesses.

"Whoosh!"

Waving his hand to take the little Gu Diao back into his Dantian, Wei Changtian walked back, thinking about a question he hadn't had time to think about carefully just now—

Since Old Zhangtou knows the Moon Picking Sword, which may be the only divine power in the world that can hurt luck beasts, and he said that he once "cut down Yama with one sword."

So, he is 99% that mysterious swordsman.

As for why Li Qi said that the swordsman's surname was Zhou, that's a minor problem, no need to think too much about it for now.

The most crucial thing now is whether Old Zhangtou and Agou are safe.

After all, Pei Dajun has already sent assassins to intercept them.

Fortunately, in order to prevent accidents, I had hired some bodyguards to pick them up in advance, which at least provided an extra layer of protection.

But it's still not very safe... No, I'll have to take a trip myself.

Well, I'll find Pei Dajun and ask him clearly first.

His pace couldn't help but quicken. It was almost Chou time now, and there were no pedestrians on the street, only a few shops whose signs hadn't been taken down were gently swaying in the night wind.

Wei Changtian looked up at the bright moon hanging in the sky again, and suddenly recalled the mental demon illusion he had just experienced.

Now that he was awake, he naturally understood that there were many loopholes in the "亡魂" questions to him, and he also knew that this was just Gu Diao, or rather, Yama's method of disrupting the enemy's mind.

But I have to admit that the guilt in my heart at the time was also real.

So, do those people really have to die?

Wei Changtian actually understood in his heart that the answer to this question was definitely negative.

Then he seriously thought about it again, if he were to choose again now, would he make a different choice than before?

"Da!"

Under the night, the handsome man in black suddenly paused, then continued to stride forward.

Well, no.
