An Ordinary Path to Immortality

Fang Ping put away the flying boat, checked several households in the village and left with doubts.

He found that the person who existed seemed to have disappeared suddenly. Except for some mice, pheasants and yellow wolves, there was no living creature.

Not only people, but also some livestock and poultry such as chickens, ducks, pigs and dogs.

In addition, Fang Ping found that many people's property was still there in their homes, and the food stored in the homes was moldy. He even saw burnt food on the stoves of some families.

These situations were extremely abnormal, and he had no idea why they were like this.

Judging from the dust on their tables and chairs, the disappearance of the villagers seemed to have just happened recently.

Not far away from this village, he found another small mountain village. The situation here was the same, exactly the same as the village he encountered before.

One village was like this, and two villages were like this. Fang Ping had a bad premonition in his heart.

So he flew up nearby on the flying sword, and soon he found more than a dozen nearby mountain villages. As a result, without exception, all of them were empty.

"In that case, could it be the work of the demons? The people of the Tiansha Sect?"

The disappearance of so many people in the village, regardless of age or gender, is absolutely abnormal. The only explanation is that it was done by the cultivators.

Some cultivators who practice the magic skills are likely to do such things as devouring the essence and blood of living people to practice.

Because such things have happened for quite a while, Fang Ping could not find any useful information in these villages, so he could only leave temporarily.

It has been more than half a month since he and Xiao Yanwen and others parted ways. According to the agreement at that time, Xiao Yanwen and others should have left the Zhennan Palace and went to the capital.

However, Fang Ping still decided to go to the Zhennan Palace to find out about the inexplicable disappearance of people in these mountain villages.

At least ask them if the official knows about this.

After all, Fang Ping also came from a poor mountain village and knew the hardships of life in the mountain village.

It is not easy for them to live on weekdays, but now they have suffered such a great disaster, which makes Fang Ping feel very uncomfortable.

If possible, he would like to do his best to find out the demon monk who committed such an unforgivable crime.

Even if he is not strong enough in the end, he will report to the sect and ask the sect to solve the problem.

Taking a step back, Liang State is a subordinate of Qiyun Sect after all. How can he, a disciple of the Law Enforcement Hall, turn a blind eye to the terrible incident of demon monks devouring mortal essence and blood in the territory of Qiyun Sect?

Whether it is out of personal feelings or out of duty, he decided to investigate temporarily.

It stands to reason that he should find the nearby county government or state government, after all, these mountain villages where the incident occurred are under their jurisdiction.

The reason why he did not find them but the King of Zhennan was naturally because Fang Ping knew that with the strength of the local state government, it would be futile even if he recruited them, because those state government offices did not have the ability to investigate and deal with the matter even if they wanted to.

Moreover, because Liang and Zhou fought for years, the King of Zhennan, who was responsible for guarding the border between Zhou and Liang, is now a powerful figure.

In addition, as a strong man of Qiyun Sect, he would definitely handle Fang Ping's instructions seriously, even if it was just for the purpose of Xiao Yanyu, the daughter of the Zhennan King, to have a better development in the Qiyun Sect.

But what Fang Ping didn't expect was that when he came to the Zhennan Palace, he found that Xiao Yanwen and the other two were still staying in the Zhennan Palace and did not go to the capital as agreed.

Fang Ping was puzzled, and naturally he would not think that the other party did not listen to his arrangements.

After all, they were just chores, and the three of them were all at the third and fourth levels of Qi Refining. How dare they disobey Fang Ping.

He scanned again with his soul, and then found something unusual, because all three of them were injured.

Especially Xiao Yanyu, who was at the fourth level of Qi Refining and had the highest cultivation, was the most seriously injured. She looked pale, her meridians were broken in many places, and even her dantian had several cracks.

With such injuries, if she only relied on her own spiritual power to heal her injuries, if she did not have enough healing pills, her cultivation journey would end here.

However, looking at Xiao Yanyu's current condition, it was obvious that he was only practicing Qigong to heal his wounds, and there was no trace of taking elixirs in his body.

The other two were not doing well at this time, and they all had some injuries on their bodies, but not as serious as Xiao Yanyu.

He sent a message to the three people who were really healing their wounds, and then landed directly in the courtyard of the Zhennan Palace.

Seeing a cultivator stepping on a flying sword and falling down, the servants and guards of the Zhennan Palace were immediately very nervous.

Someone shouted, and dozens of soldiers with swords and guns surrounded them immediately.

But they were facing the legendary cultivator, the immortal, the existence that even their prince had to salute and call the immortal master when he saw him.

So they were also afraid in their hearts, sending people to report, and surrounding them from a distance but not daring to come forward.

Seeing them so nervous and timid, but loyal to their duties, Fang Ping felt a little funny in his heart.

"Everyone, retreat. Do not neglect your seniors."

Xiao Yanyu's voice was heard quickly, and the soldiers retreated a little hesitantly, but did not withdraw.

Seeing this, Xiao Yanyu was furious and said, "This is the immortal master of Qiyun Sect, my senior. You don't have to panic. Go to guard yourselves."

Xiao Yanwen also shouted: "Everyone, please leave. This is Senior Chen, our honored guest. Don't be rude. If you offend Senior Chen, even if the prince comes, he can't save you."

The princess and the grandson of the emperor had spoken, so they naturally didn't dare to continue to surround the immortal master with weapons. They quickly put away their weapons and retreated.

At this time, a middle-aged man with a burly figure, a resolute appearance, a short beard and a long gown came quickly accompanied by two or three people.

As soon as he entered the courtyard, he first glanced at Fang Ping, and then looked at Xiao Yanyu with an inquiring look.

Xiao Yanyu hurriedly stepped forward and said: "Father, this is our Qiyun Sect inner disciple, Senior Chen Huaijing."

Hearing Xiao Yanyu's words, Fang Ping naturally understood that the man in front of him should be the pillar of Daliang State, supporting half of Daliang State, and leading his troops to fight against Zhou State for decades.

Although he was born in Zhou, he should have been a mortal enemy of Liang, especially the King of Zhennan, who was a great concern to many people in Zhou.

However, Fang Ping had lived in a small mountain village that was almost isolated from the world since he was a child, and he had no concept of family and country at all.

In addition, as a foundation-building cultivator now, he cared even less about the country.

"It turned out to be Master Chen Huaijing. There has been some unrest here recently, and the guards have reacted a little too radically. Please don't blame the old master."

The King of Zhennan bowed deeply to Fang Ping.

In his impression, the more advanced the master's cultivation, the older he must be. 33 Novel Network

He had heard people say that many masters looked young, but in fact they were already dozens or hundreds of years old.

When he heard that Fang Ping was an inner disciple, his first reaction was naturally like this.

Fang Ping was not too arrogant. He returned the greeting slightly and said, "You are too polite, Prince Zhennan. It is just a small matter. But speaking of it, aren't the guards of your Prince Zhennan's Palace a little too sensitive?"

Even if he is the Prince Zhennan, when he saw the Immortal Master coming, his servants and guards dared to surround the Immortal Master.

This is not the reaction of a mortal.

In addition, Xiao Yanyu and others were injured, and Fang Ping felt that there must be something hidden.
