Tang Li looked at the stone statue that was emitting a powerful evil spirit in front of her and said with a smile, “You’re just a little demon that has obtained some opportunities to cultivate. You’re not worthy of me kneeling to you.”

With that, a talisman appeared in her hand and she quickly shot it at the stone statue.

“Ah…”

Looking at the shattered stone statue and the blood that was spreading everywhere, the water granny’s body stiffened in fear and she screamed.

The blood quickly splattered all over the water granny’s face, but not a drop of blood landed on Tang Li.

At that moment, Tang Li turned to look at the water granny.

The moment the water granny was stared at by Tang Li, her body started trembling uncontrollably.

“Who… who… are you?”

“Shouldn’t you find out who I am before bringing me here?” Tang Li said casually. “You must have done a lot of bad things over the years, haven’t you? If you die, do you think you’ll go to hell?”

The water granny’s face turned pale and her body trembled even more violently.

Tang Li continued, “I’ll give you ten minutes to tell me everything you’ve done over the years. Otherwise… you might end up like this thing.”

The water granny’s face turned even paler. She was wondering who the woman in front of her was. Could she be a master? But it was impossible for a master to look like her. Or perhaps there was a master among the people who came with the woman. The master deliberately used the woman as bait.

If that was the case, before the master appeared, if she caught this woman and held her hostage, would she be able to negotiate with the master and get him to let her go?

At this thought, a glint flashed across the woman’s eyes. Her lips trembled as she said regretfully, “I’ll talk, I’ll talk. But I’m feeling very uncomfortable now. Can you help me sit on the chair?”

Tang Li looked at the middle-aged woman and reached out her hand to the woman.

When the woman’s eyes lit up, a ball of flames suddenly appeared in Tang Li’s palm. It was a blue flame.

The woman who was about to reach out to Tang Li screamed. Her body went limp and she fell to the ground.

“You… you…”

“You get scared really easily.” Tang Li looked bored. “I thought you were immune to these things after being a swindler for so long. Looks like I overestimated you, but… I suddenly don’t want to play with you anymore. Let’s go straight to the point.”

After saying that, Tang Li snapped her fingers.

The woman shuddered and started talking in the next second.

“Eight years ago, when my husband abused me, I ran out and hid on the mountain. However, my husband refused to let go of me. He gathered all his relatives and came out to look for me. I was extremely afraid, so I ran deeper into the mountain. As I ran, I tripped and fell. When I fell, I saw a large pool of blood in front of me. I was so scared that I was about to run away when this pool of blood spoke. He said that as long as I listened to her, I would never be abused again and would become a big shot in this town.

“I thought that if my husband caught me, I would be half dead anyway, so I might as well take a gamble.”

“Later, this pool of blood helped me take revenge on my husband. He and his family died one after another.”

“After they died, I started to convince the entire town that I had been chosen by a god. I can read fortunes, read feng shui, and have divine herbs.”

“Then, many people came to look for me. Even the leaders of the vocational school came to look for me. It just so happened that my master needed the blood of women to cultivate, and he liked the blood of beautiful women the most. There were many beautiful women in the vocational school. I worked with the leaders of the vocational school. They provided me with the blood of beautiful women. I helped them control the girls’ minds and made them earn money for the school.”

“Because the leaders of the vocational school had those beautiful girls to help them build connections and money, they quickly established a huge network. They have customers in the county, city, province, and even the imperial capital.”

After hearing this, Tang Li turned to look at the door and said, “If you have anything else to ask, come in and ask.”

After Tang Li finished speaking, two people in uniforms walked in.

Behind them were Qi Yihan and the other three.

Everyone looked very serious and angry.

The two men in uniform walked up to the water granny and asked who were in cahoots with the school leaders.

Water Granny actually knew the details and told them everything in detail.

After asking what they wanted to ask, they walked out of the water granny’s house. Qi Yihan said to the two men in uniform, “We will leave the rest to you guys. We’ll leave tomorrow morning.”

The two men in uniform had no objections. One of them looked at Tang Li and said, “Miss Tang, thank you for your help this time. If not for you, we wouldn’t have known that such a dirty thing was happening in this town. We will definitely investigate what happened here and not let go of anyone involved.”

These two people were sent by the higher-ups, so as long as they got the evidence, they could immediately arrest people.

After settling this matter, the three of them stayed in town until morning. After the two people from the Jiangnan Mystic Society arrived, they continued walking southwest.

After walking for another five to six hours, the car stopped by an artificial river.

The grass in this artificial river was growing rampant. It was obvious that it had not been weeded for a long time.

The two masters who brought them here were called Xuan Yi and Wang Chong.

Wang Chong said to them, “That town over there is our destination.”

On the other side of the river, there was indeed a small town. From here, the buildings in the town were not much different from other places except for being a little older. The only difference was that from the road they were standing on to the town, there was not even a car or a person.

Xuan Yi added, “A master came over before. He said that this town is very strange, but he didn’t know exactly what. Later, he fell seriously ill.”

“Even Master Lian fell seriously ill when he came out. If ordinary people go in and come out, it won’t just be a serious illness. Some people will continue to be sick and die after a year or two.”

“I heard that over the years, there hasn’t been a newborn in this town. When most of the old people died, middle-aged people started to die. Previously, there were thousands of people in this town, but now, there seem to be only a thousand people.”

Tang Li asked, “How long has this situation been going on?”

“We don’t know the exact number of years. It should have been more than ten years.”

Butler Yang was a little nervous. He asked Tang Li, “Madam, do you think my sister is really in this town?”

Tang Li glanced at him and said, “It’s hard to say now. You and your sister are bound by kinship. If she’s really here and you two meet, you’ll feel it.”

Butler Yang nodded, feeling both excited and uneasy.
