Chapter 111 Aftermath
Chapter 111 Aftermath
Lu Qingyun ignited a spiritual fire, erasing all traces, and turned to leave the side hall of the Pill Department.
The side hall behind him was now in ruins, and Lu Qingyun shook his head.
"Whatever your motives or why you told me about the Taoist Jinhua, it's none of my business."
The purpose of learning about Jin Hua Dao Ren was merely to prevent future troubles and conflicts with him, but I gained nothing from him.
But this does not mean that we should directly confront the Taoist priest of Jinhua.
Whatever the Taoist priest Jinhua does, as long as you don't offend him, it's none of his business.
Lu Qingyun remained perfectly lucid.
If you don't have the ability to change everything, don't harbor any wildfire ideas.
He risked his life to perish together with the Taoist priest of Jinhua, but ultimately gained nothing.
Even if there is no Taoist Jinhua, there will be Taoist Shuihua.
It's enough to be able to manage yourself and not let yourself be harmed by others.
As for saving more people, that's at least irrelevant to me right now.
It has nothing to do with my current self.
Lu Qingyun left the side hall.
It was quite some time before people from the Dan tribe arrived.
"This is terrible! How are we going to explain this to Lord Jinhua?"
Zhao San looked at the devastated side hall filled with ruins, his whole body trembling, and he muttered to himself.
"The entire side hall has been reduced to ruins. If Lord Jinhua finds out, I, the deputy hall master who was out arresting people, will surely be captured and made a scapegoat."
Upon entering the side hall, Zhao San discovered fragments of clothing belonging to Tang Shan, the nephew of the Taoist Jinhua, among the ashes.
"It's one thing that the side hall is gone, but even Tang Shan died at the hands of these bandits. Tang Shan is dead, but I'm still alive."
Zhao San's heart skipped a beat, and large beads of sweat dripped down his face.
"No, I have to run away right now!"
"Otherwise, if the Taoist Jinhua finds out that I am still alive, he will surely kill me to accompany his nephew in death."
Zhao San didn't dare to linger and ran away.
Although the Great Yun Kingdom prides itself on its clean governance and upholding of justice, and never gets involved in anything.
But Zhao San, a high-ranking official of the third rank, was well aware of the sordid affairs within the Great Yun Kingdom.
It was precisely because he understood this that he dared not gamble on the temperament of the Taoist priest Jinhua.
They dared not gamble on how Dayun would treat him.
"The only way forward now is to defect to the Demonic Sect!"
In a short while, Zhao San's figure headed towards the Demonic Sect.
Although the Demonic Sect also treats human life with contempt, at least he can survive.
Half a day later.
Zhao San's superior, Xue Quan, the deputy minister of the Dan Department, was startled. There had been no news from the side hall located on the East Mountain today.
In the past, the East Mountain Side Hall would send over the daily task progress reports and apply for approval for some projects.
But now, not even a single greeting has been sent.
Zhao San, who was entrusted by him to abduct boys and girls under the guise of plague pills to be the main dish of today's Tianhua Banquet, has also disappeared without a trace.
Xue Quan hurriedly went to the place where the soul lamps of the Dan Department were stored.
He was terrified when he finally looked at it.
"Tangshan... and everyone from the East Mountain side hall are dead! Only Zhao San survived, and he even escaped towards the Demonic Sect!"
Xue Quan suddenly felt like he was having a myocardial infarction.
"What should we do? What should we do?"
"Zhao San has run away, and no one is here to exonerate me. Wouldn't I become the person responsible for the incident at the East Mountain Side Hall? Although I have the cultivation of the ninth level of Qi Refining, I am nothing but an ant in the eyes of Daoist Jinhua."
"Now that his nephew Tang Shan has also died there, not only will he lose his official position, but I'm afraid even my life will be taken by the Taoist priest Jinhua!"
Xue Quan paced back and forth, then suddenly clenched his fist.
"That's it! That bastard Zhao San must have discovered the trouble at the East Mountain side hall, which is why he escaped from the Demonic Sect!"
"This man dared to run away from the Great Yun Kingdom even though he has a wife and children. Do you think I wouldn't dare?"
Xue Quan's eyes lit up.
He has a much greater advantage than Zhao San!
Zhao San had a family to support, but he was an orphan.
Moreover, all the soul lamps of the Dan tribe were under his surveillance, and with just a little effort, the Great Yun Kingdom could not even track his whereabouts.
Thinking of this.
Xue Quan immediately gathered all the soul lamps from the Dan Department and pocketed all the spirit stones he could use.
Then, without looking back, he immediately flew away towards the Demon Sect in his flying shuttle.
"If they won't keep me here, there are plenty of other places that will. I'm a dignified ninth-level Qi Refining cultivator; even if I went to the Demonic Sect, I could still become a second-rank official!"
"And that hateful Zhao San! Such a terrible thing happened, and he didn't even leave me a message. Once I get to the Demonic Sect, I'll definitely skin him alive!"
Xue Quan gritted his teeth and headed in the same direction Zhao San had fled.
By observing Zhao San's movements and his safety, it's easy to determine whether the area ahead is safe.
At this moment, Zhao San, who had been the first to flee, couldn't help but sneeze.
"Damn it! Which bastard is cursing me? Could it be that guy surnamed Xue found out I'm dating someone?"
Zhao San quickly turned around to look, and when he found nothing there, he breathed a sigh of relief.
"I escaped as fast as I could. As soon as I discovered that Tang Shan was dead and the side hall was destroyed, I left Yunxia City. Even if Xue Quan wanted to chase me, it was too late."
"not to mention..."
Zhao San grinned maliciously.
"Then Xue Quan himself will probably be in grave danger!"
