The Wrong Demon

Hearing Fang Zelin's words, the disciple beside him also turned around and glanced at the village that was now almost gone, and seemed to feel a bit emotional as well.

"Alright, let's go."

Fang Zelin didn't have much to worry about.

Judging from the pangolin's appearance, it shouldn't do anything to harm the villagers.

In that case, we might as well keep the pangolin.

Whether the other party can continue to enjoy incense offerings here depends on their own abilities.

If the other party cannot overcome this calamity targeting it, then it will no longer be able to enjoy these incense offerings in the future.

The group didn't stray too far from the village, but carefully searched the surrounding area, trying to find the demon that had threatened the pangolin.

Regardless of whether the other party had joined forces with the previous demon, the fact that this demon had altered the water veins without authorization was enough for them to find and kill it.

However, speaking of water veins

"Among the cultivators of Northern Liang, are there any fellow Daoists skilled in water manipulation? If that pangolin hadn't intervened, the village would likely have suffered from drought for decades, turning into a wasteland."

Fang Zelin felt that it was best to prepare for both possibilities.

To avoid turning back, the pangolin didn't make a move, and the village became a ghost town due to drought.

"The matter of the water veins is no small matter. Even if it is restored, it will require immense Law Power. We will need to consult with other fellow cultivators after we return."

Upon hearing Fang Zelin's words, Yunzi immediately responded with a reply.

Then, he smiled at Fang Zelin and said, "Fellow Daoist, rest assured, leave this matter to me."

Seeing Yunzi say this, Fang Zelin felt relieved.

He nodded, then activated his divine eye as he traveled, glancing around to make sure he didn't miss any demons in the vicinity.

The village is surrounded by mountain roads and numerous valleys, making it rather inconvenient to find.

It wasn't until evening that a disciple of Rising Tide Valley sent out a signal, indicating that they had found a demon.

Judging from that demon's aura, she's quite powerful!

Upon learning the news, Fang Zelin, Yunzi, and the others rushed over immediately.

When Fang Zelin arrived, he saw several Rising Tide Valley disciples surrounding the demon.

Upon seeing another cultivator arrive, the demon became anxious and tried to rush out to save her life.

However, the disciples of Rising Tide Valley around them were already on guard against this.

With a wave of their hands, golden ropes flew out from their sleeves.

The rope wrapped around the demon, breaking its Law Technique and binding it tightly.

Fang Zelin doesn't need to take action.

This demon looked extraordinary, but several disciples from Rising Tide Valley easily subdued it when they attacked together.

However, Fang Zelin did notice something: the Rising Tide Valley disciple in front of him was quite skilled.

In comparison, they are several levels more powerful than the cultivators of the Great Qian before.

It's just unknown how much the strength of the Great Qian cultivators has increased after decades of dedicated cultivation.

"Master, senior, the demon has been captured. Judging from its Law Technique just now, it possesses some Law Power capable of altering water veins; it must be this demon."

After capturing the demon, the disciples of Rising Tide Valley examined it carefully.

Once they were certain the other party couldn't escape, they immediately came to report.

Upon hearing this, the demon who was bound like a dumpling immediately began to wriggle its body.

"With my limited skills, how could I possibly alter the water veins? You've captured the wrong demon!"

As the demon finished speaking, she struggled even more fiercely.

However, the disciples of Rising Tide Valley who were standing nearby remained unmoved upon hearing this.

"Nonsense! We've seen that pangolin before. He said he was threatened by you. What, do you want me to take you to confront him?"

Upon hearing the demon's words, a disciple from Rising Tide Valley immediately rebuked her.

He didn't actually believe what the pangolin said; he was just trying to bluff.

Anyway, the pangolin is nearby. If they still refuse to admit it, then we can just take them there for a standoff.

If it really wasn't the other party who did it, then naturally we should let them leave.

Fang Zelin, who was standing to the side, heard this and a slight smile appeared on his lips.

These monks, though generally upright, were not overly pedantic.

I do know that some methods are needed when interrogating these demons.

Upon hearing this, the fairy, who had been so confident just moments before, was immediately speechless.

The look of great injustice that had just appeared on their faces vanished completely, replaced by an expression of pleading for mercy.

"Esteemed immortals, this lowly demon knows his mistake! Please spare my life!"

"The little demon did this out of sheer desperation. It was because other members of the same race threatened the little demon, wanting her to alter the water veins in various parts of Northern Liang, causing Northern Liang to suffer from drought year after year, so that they could steal the Human Race Karmic Fortune."

At this point, the demon began to kowtow repeatedly.

If an ordinary person saw this demon in such a manner, they might think that the demon's nature wasn't so bad after all.

However, the disciples standing by remained unmoved by this situation.

Having cultivated themselves for so many years, they all deeply understand one principle.

You absolutely cannot listen to only one side of the story when it comes to these matters, otherwise you might be deceived by a demon without even realizing it.

What's more, this fairy didn't tell the truth at all just now.

Hearing this, they no longer believed a word the other person said.

"Looks like those overseas devils have already come after you."

At that moment, Wu Qing stepped forward and suddenly spoke.

These words immediately caused the fairy's expression to change. "Speak," she said, "Those who joined them in time, what have they been doing since then?"

Wu Qing seemed oblivious to the change in the other person's expression, and instead continued to ask questions.

Wu Qing's words caused the demon spirit to look somewhat incredulous.

He was now surrounded by these cultivators.

With such a solemn demeanor, it suddenly realized that it was doomed today.

What's more, they even know about the overseas fairies.

It seems unlikely that it will succeed in making up other stories now.

Especially if you get involved with overseas demons, it's a sure path to certain death.

It knew perfectly well what those overseas demons wanted to do.

After thinking about this, it suddenly felt even more aggrieved.

"Since you all know that the demons overseas are going to deal with you, what are you doing here? I haven't done any of those things!"

At this point, it was extremely aggrieved.

Now that these cultivators knew about this, they simply went to find those guys.

It hasn't joined those guys, so why bother looking for it?

So many cultivators have come; they've certainly shown it respect!
