Qin Li's Methods

"This Thousand-Fathom Mountain Range is actually not within the territory of the Five Symbols Sect."

Gu Chen frowned slightly as he looked at the map he had obtained from the elder.

The six major powers have overlapping territories.

The Thousand-Fathom Mountain Range lies within the territory of the Azure Cloud Sect.

"Fortunately, it's not too far from the border of the Five Symbols Sect."

Thinking to himself, Gu Chen said to the elder:

"We've chosen this area?"

The elder glanced at it, nodded, and then asked:

"There are only three of you. Should we find some core disciples from other peaks?"

"The investigation will be quite complicated; having more people will make it faster."

"That won't be necessary," Mu Fan said from the side.

With fewer people around, they can run more quickly in case of danger.

The elder was taken aback upon hearing this.

You haven't even left the house yet, and you've already planned how to escape?

This disciple is quite quick to understand!

"Then it's up to you."

As the elder spoke, he handed a jade talisman to Gu Chen:

As the team leader, remember to communicate with others nearby and try to stay in step with them.

After a series of brief training sessions, the disciples of the sect embarked on their journey.

The scene was truly spectacular.

"Such actions have not been taken by our Five Symbols Sect for several years. We hope to gain something this time to put people's minds at ease," an elder remarked with anticipation.

Beside him, another elder gently shook his head:

With so many disciples out there, we're probably going to be quite busy for a while.

"Enough chatting, the disciple has already left, it's about time we set off too."

Although the Five Symbols Sect's operation this time was large in scale.

The movements, however, were extremely swift.

The matter was discussed in the morning, and a large-scale operation was launched in the afternoon.

In mid-air, at intervals, you could see some flying boats moving into the distance.

"Finding the heretical cultivators who do these things will probably be quite troublesome."

On the airship, Gu Chen gazed intently at the scene below.

The mind manifested, exploring every corner.

He couldn't find such evil cultivators using the system.

They can only make judgments based on the knowledge taught in the sect's training.

The methods used by heretical practitioners, as well as the things they do, often have a certain influence on their temperament and other aspects.

This is also one of the most important bases.

Fortunately, his system wasn't entirely useless.

Those who are hiding can be detected by oneself as long as they are within a certain distance.

"With the sect making such a big commotion, these evil cultivators aren't stupid; they've probably already run away."

On the other side, Mu Fan shook his head and said:

"This area is so close to the Five Symbols Sect, I doubt we'll find anything here."

As they spoke, the flying boat approached a city.

"Such a big city, this is a huge undertaking." Mu Fan looked troubled.

Gu Chen glanced at the flying boats approaching from other directions in the distance.

"Fortunately, we have the help of other teams."

No sooner had she finished speaking than Qin Li, who had been staying in the flying boat house, suddenly came out.

There's one below.

As she spoke, Qin Li looked at Mu Fan:

"Go and grab him. He's at the end of this street, on the second floor of that tavern, the scruffy middle-aged man sitting by the window."

Both of them were taken aback.

Mu Fan came to his senses:

"You've already noticed, why don't you go yourself?"

Qin Li shook her head:

"You're fast, so naturally you should do this kind of thing."

Mu Fan: "I..."

"I'll go."

As soon as he finished speaking, Gu Chen rushed towards the place Qin Li pointed out.

Mu Fan's expression shifted slightly. "Senior Brother is still the best."

At the same time, Gu Chen's figure descended directly from the sky towards the tavern.

Just then, a glint of light suddenly flashed in the eyes of the slovenly man on the second floor.

The next moment, he got up without hesitation and was about to leave.

"Sir, we have something to discuss with you."

Gu Chen's voice came from behind.

"Lord Shangzong, isn't this unnecessary?" The slovenly man froze.

"I have..."

Before he could finish speaking, Gu Chen stepped forward and placed his hand on his shoulder.

"I hope you will cooperate."

As they spoke, he carried the disheveled man back to the flying boat as if he were a chick.

"Is this a heretical practice?"

Mu Fan looked puzzled.

Among the information his system detected, the disheveled man's "[Identity]" field clearly stated that he was a Devil Sect.

"No."

Qin Li's gaze turned slightly cold as she looked at the disheveled man:

"A lackey of the Devil Race."

The disheveled man noticed Qin Li's gaze, his expression changed drastically, and he hurriedly said:

"My esteemed sect leaders, you cannot indiscriminately kill innocent people!"

Qin Li snorted coldly and looked at Gu Chen.

"Let him go, get out of the way."

Upon hearing this, Gu Chen loosened his grip.

At the same time, a force lifted the disheveled man up.

Qin Li made a grasping motion with her hand.

Click, click.

The sound of bones breaking rang out one after another.

The disheveled man's face changed drastically, but he couldn't make a sound; his whole body trembled violently.

A bloody heart appeared before the man's eyes.

"Is this what you call innocence?"

Qin Li's voice was slightly cold.

Bang!

My heart pounded so hard it felt like it was going to explode.

A wisp of black power remained in place after the heart exploded.

The man's eyes widened, his pupils suddenly dilated, and his life force completely vanished.

"I..."

Mu Fan took a deep breath and moved the chair a little further away.

This junior female student is a bit scary.

Gu Chen was also startled by Qin Li's actions.

But his gaze fell on that black energy, and his brows furrowed slightly.

"Junior Sister Qin, what's this?"

At the same time, the elders who had been hiding in the shadows also appeared and turned their attention to the matter.

After all, the killing was done too decisively.

"Devil Qi." Qin Li waved her hand, and power surged forth, turning the corpse into nothingness.

"If Devil Qi enters the heart, one becomes a lackey of the Devil Race, surrendering one's life to Devil Race, and can no longer be called human."

"They deserve to die."

After a pause, Qin Li turned to look at the elder who had appeared and said:

"This is the heretical cultivator you've been looking for."

The elder's gaze narrowed slightly as he looked at that Devil Qi.

The Devil Qi he felt was extremely evil, making him want to stay far away from it.

Regardless, this is indeed strange.

But how can we tell them apart?

The elder pondered for a moment, then asked.

To be honest, you couldn't tell anything about that slovenly man just by looking at him from the outside.

Gu Chen also looked over.

To be honest, even with the help of the system, he didn't discover anything.

Qin Li did not answer, but instead closed her eyes slightly.

A few breaths later, she opened her eyes and looked in another direction in the city.

"There's one standing on that street corner over there; he can demonstrate for you."

Then, a beam of light flew from Qin Li's fingertip into the city.

Seeing this, Gu Chen set off again to enter the city.
