"The mayor's house is still up there, and the largest building in the town, which can be recognized at a glance," Luoli asked about the road and came back to inform the two.

"Meng Senior Brother, Su Senior Sister, let's go."

The three of them walked towards the mayor's house.

It was already afternoon, and the town became lively. Various shops lit up their signs, and the shopkeepers shouted. Young men and women walked hand in hand on the streets, while elderly people sat by the street playing chess and chatting, appearing very harmonious.

Lu Chuan stood out from the warm surroundings.

He clenched his fists, frowned, and felt anger in his heart.

Along the way, regardless of age or gender, everyone had spiritual energy in their bodies, which was chaotic and uncontrollable. In other words, they all practiced evil cultivation techniques.

The refined energy transformed into spiritual energy, which would make people healthier, stronger, and more energetic in the short term. However, over time, people would become extremely weak, their lifespan would shorten, and they would age prematurely.

The original work did not mention the residents in this mission. The focus was on Luoli's show-off and face-slapping. They were merely insignificant NPC characters in the novel.

But this is not a novel, nor is it a personal show of the protagonist. Everyone here is a flesh and blood Perfected Being with loved ones and dreams.

Lu Chuan didn't consider himself a righteous gentleman, but this was too malicious. Sacrificing so many innocent people for personal gain?

What if he didn't transmigrate into Lu Chuan's body, but became an ordinary person here...

Lu Chuan didn't dare to think about it.

The Evil Dao Fruit was truly detestable! After Luoli defeated the mastermind, Lu Chuan would personally send him to the underworld and take the opportunity that belonged to the protagonist from him, which would also give him some relief.

The only value these old residents had was their equipment.

Regarding the residents practicing evil cultivation techniques, Lu Chuan planned to write a letter in Mengqing's name to expose it to the Immortal Gate. This place was within the protection range of the Immortal Gate, and he believed that the sect would not sit idly by.

Azure Rock Town was not big. It took about ten minutes to walk from the bottom to the top. There was only one large building here, and above it was an orchard.

Various patterns were carved on the gate, the roof had flying eaves and upturned corners, and the walls were built with bluestones.

It was not a courtyard-level house, but more like the palace in the period dramas Lu Chuan had seen on Blue Star.

When the two guards standing at the entrance saw Lu Chuan and the others approaching, one raised a long stick, and the other asked, "Who are you? What brings you here?"

"We are..."

Luoli hadn't experienced a beating in the cultivation world yet and was prepared to truthfully explain their purpose of searching for the missing fellow disciple.

Before she could speak, Suliangliang took the lead.

"We are disciples of the Immortal Gate, here to visit Zhuang Daoguang and inquire about the previous work done by our fellow disciples."

"Oh, so you are immortals from the Immortal Gate. Please wait a moment, I will report to my father."

The guard holding the long stick put down his weapon and went inside to report the arrival of the visitors.

Soon, a young man walked out of the house.

He was tall, wearing a blue robe, and a black round hat on his head. He looked strict but smiled when he saw Lu Chuan and the others, saying, "Dear immortals, my father has been bedridden due to illness and cannot entertain you. Allow me to receive you instead.

Come, come, don't stand at the door, come in and have a seat."

The person was Zhuang Leyuan, the son of the mayor of Azure Rock Town, and a well-known young talent in the town.

Coming into the hall and sitting down, Zhuang Leyuan began to chat.

"You've come to inquire about the work done by the previous immortals, right?"

Su Lianlian nodded, "The Spirit Beast in the mansion has been stolen, and it's very likely that a wild Spirit Beast found a loophole in the animal pen and took the opportunity to sneak in and eat. The previous fellow disciples only captured the wild Spirit Beast, but we're here to find the loophole in the animal pen."

Su Lianlian said this in order to search around the mayor's house without arousing suspicion, to see if there were any traces of the missing people.

"I see, then it's troublesome for you immortals. The amount of Spirit Beasts raised each year is fixed, after all, they have to be handed over to the king. If we have fewer this year, we'll be in trouble."

Luo Li and Su Lianlian were relieved that the mayor's son was easy to talk to, making the search much easier.

Lu Chuan, however, stared at Zhuang Leyuan's face, trying to figure out what was going on.

In his eyes, Zhuang Leyuan's fair face was lifeless and pale.

The young man was well-dressed and handsome, but there was not much spiritual energy left in his body. He appeared strong on the outside but weak on the inside, and his life was not long.

There was no flow of spiritual energy in his body, ruling out the possibility of practicing evil cultivation techniques. But what could be the reason for this?

"Yan Liu, take the immortals to the Spirit Beast breeding area, and don't be disrespectful." Zhuang Leyuan said, "I still need to take care of my father. Immortals don't need to be restrained here, just treat it as your own home. Excuse me."

Zhuang Leyuan got up and walked away, followed by a beautiful woman entering the hall.

With a slender waist and a well-rounded buttocks, she was dressed in a pink dress, with graceful curves and a beautiful face, especially her tempting almond-shaped eyes.

Her bright red lips emitted a seductive voice, "Gentlemen, I'm Yan Liu, Zhuang Leyuan's wife. I'll take you to inspect the animal pen."

Although her appearance and figure were at the apex level, Lu Chuan felt no interest.

At a glance, Lu Chuan recognized that Yan Liu was an Evil Cultivator who used men's spiritual energy as cultivation material. Her cultivation level was not shallow, at least at the early stage of Qi Refining.

The reason for Zhuang Leyuan's loss of spiritual energy was found.

She must be related to the mastermind behind the disappearance of the disciples of the Wang Immortal Gate. It's better to be cautious.

Yan Liu saw Lu Chuan and Luo Li and her eyes widened. She had previously fed on ordinary people and had long wanted to taste the flavor of cultivators.

She could even smell Lu Chuan's captivating scent from such a distance.

Yan Liu sensed something was wrong. Looking at Luo Li's appearance, it was obvious that he was a man, but he didn't exude any masculinity.

But that didn't matter to her. Yan Liu just wanted to spend a passionate night with Lu Chuan and taste something new.

What about Zhuang Leyuan?

Of course, he couldn't find out. Besides, cheating doesn't mean I don't love my husband.

Anyway, Zhuang Leyuan will die soon, and in his final moments, being loved by a beauty like me, he can die without regrets.

Lu Chuan noticed Yan Liu staring at him with a passionate gaze and felt disgusted.

He had no desire to have any contact with such a lascivious and cheap person.

Yan Liu smiled and said, "This way, please. The Spirit Beasts are kept in the backyard, I'll take you there."

She led the way, turning her head to look at Lu Chuan every few steps, even trying to reach out and grab Lu Chuan's arm, wanting to get closer to him.

Yan Liu was going to have an extra meal tonight!
