The black cat ignored Lu Ren's questioning and quickly shuttled across the rooftops on both sides of the street.
Lu Ren smiled sneerfully and slowly drew his bow and arrow, aiming at the black shadow.
But he did not shoot in a hurry, as if he was waiting for something.
Not long after, a clear gong sounded from the corner of the street.
"It's midnight, and everything is fine."
As the night watchman finished speaking, Lu Ren's brows relaxed and he loosened his right hand that was pulling the bowstring.
The arrow flew out, piercing the night sky like a flash of lightning, and headed straight for the back of the black cat.
The black cat felt a chill on her back, and a strong murderous intent quickly hit her.
She could only grit her teeth and keep changing the direction of escape, trying to avoid Lu Ren's arrow.
Unexpectedly, the arrow that was chasing her had already locked onto her firmly, and no matter where she fled, she would be tracked.
Seeing that the distance was getting closer and closer, continuing to escape was not a solution , she had no choice but to stop, turned around and stared coldly at the arrow that was wrapped with cold murderous intent.
Then, she took out a copper bell and threw it in the direction of the arrow.
The arrow and the copper bell collided with each other, neither giving in.
After a long stalemate, the spiritual energy gathered on the arrow was exhausted and fell to the ground.
At the same time, the copper bell was also covered with dense cracks and was swaying in the air.
The black cat didn't care about the pain. After looking at Lu Ren in the air, he decisively chose to continue to run away.
Lu Ren curled the corners of his mouth, not panicking at all
"So what if I let you run 999 steps first? Everything within the range is the truth."
He drew his bow again.
This time, Lu Ren used all his strength!
This arrow was more powerful and faster.
Even with Lu Ren's outstanding eyesight, he could only barely catch a glimpse of afterimage.
The distance of several streets was reached in the blink of an eye.
Without the protection of magic weapons, the black cat could only watch the arrow pierce her abdomen.
The spiritual energy attached to the arrow head brutally strangled her flesh and internal organs.
The severe pain made her no longer have the strength to escape, and she fell from the sky like a kite with a broken string.
Her consciousness gradually blurred. In the painful struggle, she vaguely saw a proud figure standing on the street slowly walking towards her.
"Are you still running?" Lu Ren asked with a smile.
The old woman turned into a human form, holding her bloody stomach, and looked at him with resentment.
"You went back on your word. Didn't you promise to let me go?"
Lu Ren nodded calmly:"That's right, but I said I would let you go 'today'. Now it's past midnight and it's a new day. My promise is no longer valid."
Black Cat never thought that he would die on a word game.
"I died so miserably, and it was not easy for me to rebuild my body and return to the world. Why did you want to kill me?" Lu Ren calmly picked up the fallen arrow:"You said that you just took over this body today, then how do you know my name?"
Shen Deshou's first wife died more than 20 years ago.
Lu Ren was not even born at that time.
The two parties could not have had any intersection.
If she really just"awoke" today, how could she accurately call out the name"Master Lu"?
There is only one possibility, this cat demon has been lurking in the town, so it knows a lot of things.
The old woman smiled bitterly:"So it's because of my talkativeness......."
If she hadn't done anything more, Lu Ren wouldn't have suspected her.
Thinking of losing her life because of a name, the old woman's face was full of regret.
Lu Ren smiled and said,"Actually, whether you are exposed or not, I will kill you."
"Why? A good man who died unjustly finally got a chance to live again, but you still won't let him go?"
"If I hadn't shown up in time, that little detective would have died. Even if you are really Shen Deshou's first wife, once your hands are stained with blood and you have tasted the taste of flesh and blood, you will never be able to turn back.
Killing sins, once done, will happen countless times.
If I don't get rid of you, will I let you continue to cause trouble to the world?"
The cat demon laughed bitterly, speechless.
"Go ahead, I accept death in your hands."
Lu Ren held the arrow in his hand and pierced it from the top of the old woman's head, as elegant as arranging flowers.
The old woman groaned in pain and closed her eyes until her vitality was exhausted.
After she returned to her original form, Lu Ren carried the cat demon's body back to Shen Deshou's home and buried it under a peach tree in the yard.
He never believed the cat demon's statement that the vengeful spirit had taken over her body.
But it was difficult for him to understand the cat demon's motives and how she knew about the scandals of Shen Deshou many years ago.
After thinking about it, only one possibility made sense.
This black cat was actually raised by Shen Deshou's first wife.
She witnessed the brutal murder of her master by Shen Deshou and was extremely sad.
With the obsession of revenge for her master, she began to practice demon magic.
After more than twenty years of dormancy, she finally got what she wanted, entered the transformation period, and cultivated a human body.
The longing for her master in her heart made her imagine the appearance of her master before his death.
Tonight, the whole town is celebrating, and it is the time when defenses are most lax.
The cat demon easily sneaked into Shen Deshou's house and implemented her revenge plan.
Perhaps, before killing Shen Deshou, she wore the face of his first wife and subjected Shen Deshou to a series of physical and mental torture.
If she was simply avenging her master, Lu Ren really couldn't bear to kill her.
But the demon's bloodthirsty savagery is extremely difficult to eradicate.
Even if she stays away from Yangliu Town and never comes back, she will continue to commit murder in new places.
Instead of this, it is better to help each other.
Lu Ren sent her to reunite with her master, and he gained the demon's lifespan. From now on, Yangliu Town will have one less hidden danger.
It can be said to kill three birds with one stone.
Unlike the rabbit demon and rat demon hunted before, this cat demon was holding a���He went to his death calmly with a calm mind.
Perhaps it was because his great revenge was finally resolved and the knot in his heart that had been there for many years was finally untied.
【You successfully killed a cat demon in the early stage of transformation】
【Cat demon Lingling: Total life span is 168 years, remaining life span is 127 years before death, absorbed】
【[Demon lifespan: 350 years]
After burying the cat demon, Lu Ren sent the injured and unconscious Zhang Quan to the clinic.
As for Shen Deshou's body, someone will throw it into the forest to feed the wild beasts tomorrow.
There is no need to let such a scum rest in peace after death...........
It was dawn.
After a night of celebration and hangover, the townspeople generally woke up much later than usual.
Lu Ren was patrolling the streets as usual.
Yang Bin suddenly found him in a hurry:
"Lu Ren, something bad has happened. Someone from the county government has come to see Mr. Shen."
Yang Bin already knew about the murder of Shen Deshou.
In fact, he was the one who dealt with Shen Deshou's body.
On the way back, he happened to meet the carriage from the county government, so he hurried back to inform Lu Ren.
