Yellow Court Daoist-Chapter 61 - 59: Anger

Lu Qingshan, upon seeing the situation, quickly separated from the group and closely followed the Black Robed Man, hurrying towards West City.

It was evident that not far behind Lu Qingshan and the Black Robed Man, another Black Robed Man was concealed in the darkness, stealthily following them.

Only two steps in, an unexpected event occurred.

From the distant crowd, an agile old man swiftly approached Lu Qingshan. He reached out his hand, intending to capture Lu Qingshan alive.

"Now!"

Lu Qingshan was startled but did not panic.

As he stepped back, he commanded the Puppet hidden in the shadows to block the old man. The Puppet beside him was refined by Lu Qingfeng, kept close to stay informed about Lu Qingshan and Lu Qingyu's safety.

The Puppet controlled by Lu Qingfeng was very close to the old man. It moved its feet and positioned Lu Qingshan behind it. One hand went up, and the Invisible Needle was thrown—

Silent and swift, it went straight for the vital point between the old man's eyebrows.

"Hidden weapon!"

"Shameful tricks!"

The old man scoffed, swiping casually with a palm filled with True Qi, striking fiercely.

The Invisible Needle immediately clashed with the blast from his palm.

"Hmm?!"

Upon contact, the old man sensed something amiss and his eyes widened. He tried to change his move but it was too late!

The True Qi on the old man's palm only lasted half a breath before it shattered. The Invisible Needle pierced through the center of his palm, slightly off-target, but it went straight through his left eye!

"Ah!"

The old man never expected that such a young man would have such an expert at his side. When he roamed the Upper Sun Country, he often encountered people from the martial world who practiced fists and weaponry.

He had experience in dealing with hidden weapons.

He mistook the Invisible Needle for a common hidden weapon. He struck out with the Mixed Refining Palm, which he had practiced for dozens of years, thinking he could smash the 'hidden weapon' into pieces. Little did he expect that the magical talisman was so sharp; not only did it break through the Mixed Refining Palm but also his left eye was left bloodied!

"Is he that weak?"

Lu Qingshan didn't expect the old man who arrived so fiercely to be such a pushover. The Puppet he controlled had just arrived when the old man, already reeling from the severe pain in his left eye, had his martial arts become disordered and formless.

A second Invisible Needle was thrown, this time piercing directly through the center of the old man's forehead.

Bang!

The old man fell down in defeat, his face twisted, ultimately succumbing to death!

"He's... dead!"

"Run!"

...

The surrounding pedestrians were terrified by this scene and scattered in all directions. Lu Qingshan, along with the two Puppets, quickly left without looking back.

Elsewhere, Lu Qingyu faced a similar situation.

Her assailant was a middle-aged man, roughly at the True Qi Realm Fourth Level. Faced with the combined assault of two Puppets and the sneak attack of the Invisible Needle, he was decapitated after a single exchange!

North City, West City.

Both places were simultaneously in uproar.

Miao Yin City forbids fighting, yet today there were two homicides. Many people were frightened, and they were guessing who would be so bold, and how Miao Yin City would handle this.

"Big brother."

"Big brother!"

Qingyu and Qingshan returned one after another, and Lu Qingfeng breathed a sigh of relief. Although the two had two Puppets by their sides, and later Lu Qingfeng sent two more as reinforcements, accidents could still happen.

Thankfully.

The reinforcements were not needed, as the assailants had been killed.

"Big brother, could it be the War God Society?!" Lu Qingshan asked in a grave voice.

"We don't know yet, but the War God Society is the most likely possibility."

So far, the War God Society was the prime suspect.

Regardless of which power dares to make a move against the three siblings, they won't be let off easily!

"The body of the person who attacked me is still at the original location; many have seen it, and I believe in a few days, we'll mostly know their background." Lu Qingshan's face was filled with anger as he clenched his fist and said, "This time, they must be taught a severe lesson!"

He had thought that after the Returning to Truth Sect was destroyed, there would be peace and they could live a carefree life. Now, people were provoking them for no reason and disrupting the hard-won tranquility.

Lu Qingshan was both angry and furious!

"Right!"

"They must not be forgiven!"

Lu Qingyu was also clenching her fists, her little face full of anger. Just earlier, her big brother had sent a warning through a Puppet before being ambushed halfway, which gave her quite a scare.

Although she was young, she wouldn't be kind-hearted or soft on the enemies!

"We'll know very soon."

Lu Qingfeng stood in the courtyard, appearing to wait for something.

It wasn't long before.

Tap tap tap!

A team of black-clad Armored Soldiers appeared outside the small courtyard, with the leading man respectfully saying to those inside, "Young Master Lu, the bodies of those who attacked your younger brother and sister have been brought. My subordinates have already sent people to notify the City Lord!"

Hearing the sound, Lu Qingfeng walked out with Lu Qingshan and Lu Qingyu.

A team of twenty black-clad Armored Soldiers stood solemnly; they were the famed Black Armored Army from Guangyuan County.

The leading officer was one of the three commanders of the Black Armored Army, named Zhou Wu. Miao Yin Daoist frequently interacted with Lu Qingfeng, coming in and out of the courtyard, so Zhou Wu and other high-ranking figures in Miao Yin City were naturally aware.

Knowing that Lu Qingshan and Lu Qingyu had been attacked, Zhou Wu, who was on duty that day, immediately collected the bodies and came to face Lu Qingfeng.

To avoid the City Lord's blame later on.

"Thank you, Commander Zhou."

Lu Qingfeng looked behind Zhou Wu at two bodies, one an elder and the other a middle-aged burly man. The fatal wounds were all in the center of their foreheads, death caused by being pierced through with the Invisible Needle.

"Does Commander Zhou know the origins of these two?" asked Lu Qingfeng, pointing to the two bodies.

"This man does not."

"However, the elder looks like 'Mixed Refining Palm' Zhu Yunshan, who was a member of the War God Society years ago but later defected and has been loitering in Upper Valley County for many years. I'm not sure how he ended up in Miao Yin City!"

Zhou Wu furrowed his brows.

"From War God Society?"

Lu Qingfeng snorted coldly. In this way, the suspicion toward the War God Society grew even stronger.

Now they were just waiting to identify the other body to confirm if the War God Society was indeed pulling strings behind the scenes.

Zhou Wu had mentioned as soon as he arrived that he had sent someone to inform Miao Yin Daoist.

About half an hour later, the black-clad Armored Soldiers reported that they could not find any traces of the City Lord in the City Lord Mansion.

Some time after a tea break, a huge dark shadow suddenly appeared in the sky.

Lu Qingfeng looked up to see a monstrous bird appearing in the air with wings spanning over ten meters.

"Double-headed duck!"

Others may not recognize it, but Lu Qingfeng had seen it in his travels—it was the Second Rank Demon Beast, the Double-headed duck, a flying demon beast capable of traveling thousands of miles a day. Although its combat power is average, it's an excellent means of transportation.

On the Double-headed duck, a body was first thrown down, landing not far in front of Lu Qingfeng. Soon after, a graceful figure descended—it was the Miao Yin Daoist!

"My subordinates greet the great one!"

Zhou Wu and the others hurriedly paid their respects.

Lu Qingfeng looked at Miao Yin Daoist, his eyes conveying an inquiry.

Miao Yin Daoist glanced at the two bodies on the ground with a cold smile at the corner of his mouth and said, "That's all War God Society has. Zhu Yunshan, Tang Jun, as well as this He Qin!"

"It really is the War God Society!"

Lu Qingfeng chuckled, his eyes brimming with murderous intent.

"Let's go inside and talk." Miao Yin Daoist entered the courtyard and closed the door.

Without waiting for Lu Qingfeng to ask, he directly said, "About half an hour ago, He Qin, one of the three great War Gods of the War God Society, lured me out of the city. This man's strength is above that of Zhuge Chongyang; he has various methods acquired from hunting cultivators. If it were me from a few months ago, I might not have been his opponent. But in these past few months, the cold poison in my body has been significantly removed, and my strength has partly recovered."

"The body just now, that is He Qin's."
