Feeling the chilling aura that threatened to pierce his brow, Judge Li conjured a long sword with exquisite patterns, deflecting Yin Yunze's thrust.

Although Yin Yunze himself had never learned spear techniques, he had the experience of learning Zhang Yufei's martial arts before, so it was not difficult for him to temporarily deduce a decent spear technique through the Power of Incense Offerings.

The spear whipped up a chilling wind, Demon-Summoning Banner emitted a strange, wailing sound.

Accompanied by the cold and its effects on his mind, Yin Yunze launched a series of thirty-eight thrusts at Judge Li.

Judge Li, as expected of the City God's Martial Judge, possessed extremely rich combat experience.

He retreated while parrying, his hands forming a hand seal to calm his soul and block the negative interference from the Demon-Summoning Banner.

After retreating nine steps, Judge Li managed to neutralize Yin Yunze's thirty-eight spear thrusts.

"Qingnü, why are you so angry?" Finally deflecting Yin Yunze's spear, Judge Li looked at Yin Yunze as if nothing had happened, and smiled, "Who offended you? Why are you taking your anger out on your Uncle Li the moment we meet?"

He felt slightly nauseous, but Yin Yunze wasn't surprised that Judge Li had such a thick skin.

Although within the City God's faction, Judge Li might be considered a good person.

However, to be able to sit comfortably in the corrupt environment and hold his position as Martial Judge Li, it's impossible that Judge Li is only good at fighting.

Being shameless and ruthless is just the basics.

After all, Judge Li only received a small donation from Yin Yunze and greeted him casually a few times. Did he really think they were some kind of relative?

Therefore, Yin Yunze showed no intention of communicating, and dark clouds began to gather in the sky.

A fierce wind whipped up snowflakes, constantly blowing against Judge Li.

However, as a spirit, Judge Li was not affected by the cold.

Judge Li easily discerned Yin Yunze's hidden attack hidden among the snowflakes and effortlessly parried it with his longsword.

Seeing this, Yin Yunze took out another pistol and fired at Judge Li.

However, compared to Judge Qian's arrogance...

Knowing that Judge Qian had already died at the hands of Yin Yunze, Judge Li naturally became much more cautious.

His method of dealing with bullets was to simply deflect them all with the long sword in his hand.

Knowing that this method might not work against Judge Li, Yin Yunze decisively put away his pistol.

After reviewing the available methods in his mind, Yin Yunze did not choose to take out other firearms, but instead reached out his hand to Judge Li.

"Hand it over!"

With his eyes closed, Yin Yunze looked directly at Judge Li and stated his demands, showing no intention of engaging in any pretense with the Judge Li.

After all, some things, once done, have no turning back.

To be honest, Yin Yunze had thought about it before.

When taking action against the City God later, should we try to get Judge Li out of the City God's faction?

After all, Yin Yunze still remembered the kindness that Judge Li had shown her back then.

But now it seems that Yin Yunze realizes that some acts of kindness are truly unnecessary.

You remember the good things people do for you, but they only see you as worthless.

Upon hearing Yin Yunze's words, Judge Li no longer concealed his intentions. With a flick of his wrist, a pair of emerald-like spheres appeared in his left palm.

"Actually, the fact that I didn't cut off your head already shows my stance!"

Looking at Yin Yunze, Judge Li said softly, "Qingnü, may I take you back to report? After all, you are Innate Holy Spirit, different from ordinary mortals. By now, your eyes should be healed, right?"

Judge Li had a good plan: taking away Yin Yunze's eyes would allow him to show the City God that he had severed ties with Qingnü.

As for Qingnü, as long as it's not discovered immediately, there might still be a chance to repair the relationship later.

Alternatively, Judge Li could find a scapegoat to cover up the matter.

At that time, Judge Li might even become Yin Yunze's benefactor by helping him avenge the loss of his eyes!

However, Yin Yunze returned faster than Judge Li had anticipated.

At the same time, the speed at which they found him far exceeded Judge Li's expectations.

Judge Li was unaware that, apart from the county seat of Qingling County, the Earth Vein Power in the entire Qingling County was already under Yin Yunze's control.

Upon hearing Judge Li's words, Yin Yunze slowly opened his eyes.

A pair of green eyeballs have grown back in the once empty eye sockets.

Yin Yunze was unaware that this Innate Holy Spirit possessed such a special quality.

In the past, Yin Yunze might have quipped that he could now make money by selling organs.

But at this moment, Yin Yunze was truly not in the mood for it.

"So, I should thank you?! The reason you gouged out my eyes is because they grew back?" Looking at Judge Li, Yin Yunze's eyes grew cold. "If that's the case, why didn't you discuss it with me beforehand? Ask me if I was willing to give up your eyes to go back and report!"

Upon hearing this, Judge Li naturally understood that even if the eyes could grow back, the pain of gouging them out was something Yin Yunze was unwilling to endure.

After thinking it over, and realizing he was in the wrong, Judge Li lowered his voice and said, "Qingnü, how about I owe you a favor this time? Let me take her back and report, and you'll—"

"Your favor isn't worth that price!" Yin Yunze refused without hesitation, "Your life is more valuable! I'm waiting for my skills! What are you waiting for? Waiting for me to let you go?"

It was at this moment that Judge Li noticed that three black command flags had been planted at his feet at some unknown time.

"Three-Origin Mystic Lightning Array!"

In an instant, countless black threads appeared on the three Dark Heavenly Lightning Flag.

Centered on Judge Li, these black threads intertwined to form a triangular net that enveloped Judge Li.

Above Judge Li, within the dark clouds, a power was also brewing that made Judge Li somewhat apprehensive.

Judge Li stared at Yin Yunze in astonishment, somewhat puzzled.

It's only been a short time since we last met, how did Qingnü become so powerful!

"You should be glad you're the first dead man to enjoy the effects of this skill after I was able to use it!"

For Yin Yunze, the greatest benefit of expanding his territory these days was not the acquisition of a massive amount of unusable Earth Vein Power.

Instead, after territorial alliances were established, Yin Yunze, who became the local Land God of several counties, finally possessed the Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi that allowed him to Mystic Lightning Array.

The reason for ignoring this statement is simply that Yin Yunze needs some time to mobilize the Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi of the various counties.

Yin Yunze chose to unleash the Mystic Lightning Array for two reasons: first, Yin Yunze was truly enraged; second, he wanted to test the effectiveness of the Mystic Lightning Array.

Sensing his precarious situation, Judge Li no longer concealed his true intentions.

"Nether Flame Jade-Severing Blade!"

As Judge Li unleashed his skill, a layer of chilling black flames ignited on his longsword.

Holding the black flame longsword, Judge Li exerted all his strength and slashed at the black silk net.

The next moment, a bright black light shone from the net.

The surging black lightning not only extinguished the black flames, but also caused Judge Li to convulse.

When the black light subsided, Judge Li's aura weakened considerably.

This net of mysterious Mystic Lightning, used to trap and entrap people, possesses a destructive power no less than that of ordinary Mystic Lightning.

Sensing the increasingly terrifying aura in the sky, Judge Li once again took out his pair of green eyeballs, as if to exert force.

"Qingnü, let me out! Otherwise, I'll crush your eyes!"

"My eyes have grown back! You think you can threaten me?"

Looking at Judge Li, Yin Yunze seemed to be looking at an idiot. "However, it's still mine—give it back!"

Seeing that Yin Yunze still wanted his eyeball back, Judge Li immediately said, "Let me out first!"

"You have no room for negotiation!"

Yin Yunze didn't say much, but stretched out his right hand, as if to unleash Mystic Lightning.

"Alright, alright!" Seeing this, Judge Li panicked and threw the pair of eyeballs towards Yin Yunze: "I'll return them to you first."

Taking the eyeball with his left hand, Yin Yunze sensed the same aura emanating from it as his own, and realized that Judge Li hadn't played any tricks this time.

Upon realizing this, Yin Yunze's right hand slashed downwards without hesitation.

The next moment, a Mystic Lightning as thick as a bucket struck Judge Li viciously.

It seems that Judge Li said something last amidst the black lightning.

However, it was too noisy—of course, Yin Yunze didn't want to listen to this person's nonsense.

When the Mystic Lightning disappeared, Judge Li was left with nothing.

Looking at the charred remains left where the final Mystic Lightning struck, Yin Yunze felt a pang of regret.

It seems that Judge Li did not bring any storage Law Treasure with him.

The long sword, too, was broken into several pieces due to the death of Judge Li.

Not being able to loot the corpse is a real loss!

Glancing at the eyes lying quietly in his hand, Yin Yunze closed his own eyes and whispered to himself, "Blow up that City God! Ten times!"

"Receive!"

Upon receiving the message from the divine body, the mortal body patted Lord of Du Mountain beneath him and whispered, "Shanjun, please take me to the area above the City God."

"OK!"

With a flap of its wings, Lord of Du Mountain brought Yin Yunze to the shore of the Lake of Resentment.

After sensing the area briefly, Yin Yunze discovered that the City God, being newly built, had no worshippers or anything like that.

Therefore, Yin Yunze didn't need to bother chasing away innocent passersby first.

Standing on Lord of Du Mountain, Yin Yunze waved his hand.

A bundle of explosives fell from the sky, passed over the shore of the Lake of Resentment, and landed in the newly built City God.

The next moment, accompanied by flames, a violent explosion once again razed the newly built City God to the ground.

"Who is it again—"

Feeling that his City God had been destroyed again, the City God was exceptionally angry.

However, this time, before the City God could finish his conversation, another explosion interrupted him.

"Wow, Qingnü, what kind of tricks do you use?"

Despite the intense flames, Lord of Du Mountain remained calm and even seemed eager to try his luck.

Yin Yunze didn't answer. He simply dropped the remaining eight bundles of explosives and patted Lord of Du Mountain, saying, "Why aren't you running?"

With this reminder, Yin Yunze leaped off Lord of Du Mountain, stirring up a blizzard that enveloped him.

Amidst a blizzard so thick it obscured everyone's view, Yin Yunze opened the Gate of Incense and returned to the real world.

When the snowstorm stopped and Lord of Du Mountain discovered that Yin Yunze had suddenly disappeared, he was quite bewildered!

My nine -Nine-Tailed Fox is so big!

But the next moment, Lord of Du Mountain felt like he was being watched.

She subconsciously looked down, only to see the City God, already a hundred meters tall, staring at her fiercely. "You are... Lord of Du Mountain from next door!?"

Wow!

With a strange cry, Lord of Du Mountain, though not afraid, still felt somewhat embarrassed at being caught red-handed by the victim for doing something wrong.

A sudden gust of wind whipped up, enveloping the sonic boom cloud. Lord of Du Mountain swiftly escaped the City God's sight.

Seeing Lord of Du Mountain flee into the distance, the City God did not get up to pursue him.

For the City God, a local deity, catching a flying tiger is really not easy.

Moreover, the City God was more concerned about why Lord of Du Mountain had suddenly started causing him trouble.

"City God Majesty, something terrible has happened!"

As he was pondering this, the City God suddenly heard his newly promoted Civil Judge exclaim, "The statue of Judge Li has collapsed!"

"What?!"

Upon hearing this news, the City God felt a great shock.

Staring in astonishment at Clear Creek Village, the City God realized that he seemed to have made a wrong judgment!

If Judge Qian's incident could be considered an accident, this time Judge Li was seriously injured.

Allowing Judge Li to act alone not only served to weaken Judge Li resolve but also demonstrated the City God Judge Li.

Judge Li, however, was not such a careless person.

However, he was defeated by Yin Yunze.

However, the City God quickly suppressed this unease.

"However, it's just a little fox that was raised by humans and isn't even a year old yet—"

As City God, he was too proud to consider Qingnü, a mere village deity, as an opponent.

At the very least, we need to witness the real power behind Qingnü taking action!
