Chapter 89 88. Evil Infant (Third Update)

Above the fields and paths.

Blood was flowing everywhere, and corpses lay on the ground. The dirty mud and green seedlings were reflected in their wide-open pupils.

Two mysterious masked men stepped on the seedlings that had just been planted in the fields and walked up the ridges step by step.

"I am so unlucky that two life-changing Gu are used up like this." The Gu Master wearing a Taotie mask said with a painful look on his face.

"It's a blessing from heaven that I can escape from the hands of Wanfa Daojun." The man wearing the Qilin mask breathed a sigh of relief.

Not only because I escaped from that domain, but also because,

From the time they were reborn in the bodies of the two teenagers to the time they killed all the farmers in the area, the head of Yuanfu Temple did not appear.

This means he didn't catch up.

The Life-Exchange Gu can only exchange lives, but cannot sever the causal connection between them.

For those who truly possess great supernatural powers, it may be difficult to sever cause and effect, but the means of tracing cause to effect are not uncommon.

"Let's go back to Hongze Lake first."

After saying that, two mysterious men wearing masks flew towards Hongze Lake.

Less than a hundred miles away from Hongze Lake, the two men landed on the ground and slowly walked towards Hongze Lake.

"How are the bugs that helped Hu Jun cross the river dispersed?" asked the man wearing the Qilin mask.

"Basically, every place on both sides of the Huai River has been arranged." The Gu Master wearing a Taotie mask replied slowly, "They probably didn't expect that we would help the old dragon cross the river like this."

"To change the weather with human power, all you're using are bugs that cultivators don't care about at all."

"Then I want to see what expressions the Dasheng court and that damn Yuanfu Temple will have when they see this surprise!"

The man wearing the Qilin mask was not as happy as his accomplices. He just said with a hint of regret:
"It's a pity. If the evil spirits hiding in the city are not eliminated in advance, when the Lord of the Lake crosses the river, he will carry the resentment of the dead and living beings on both sides of the Huai River into the sea."

"This way the chances of success in crossing the river will be greatly increased."

"Man proposes, God disposes." The Gu Master wearing the Taotie mask did not feel sorry, "And didn't you make new arrangements?"

"By the way, how are you going to use the ghost baby with Cao family blood to deal with the Cao family?"

Upon hearing this, the man wearing the Qilin mask reached into the air and pulled out a ghost baby with dark skin and red eyes.

"The unborn fetus turned into a ghost baby because of resentment, but the child's inability to be born was an accident. It was destined to happen, and no one can be blamed."

"Under normal circumstances, it would not be possible to transform into a ghost baby. However, the toad monster in the pond possessed a different kind of ghost power, which caused it to accidentally transform into a ghost baby."

“This saves me a lot of effort.”

"I asked you to check how many members of the Cao family are pregnant. How is the investigation going?" asked the man wearing the Qilin mask.

"The Cao family branch now has nearly 500 people, and there are currently 33 pregnant women."

"Thirty-three people?" The man wearing the Qilin mask murmured, "Not being able to be born once can accumulate a lot of resentment. What if it happens twice or three times?"

"Are you trying to raise an evil baby?" The Gu Master wearing the Taotie mask had a sudden thought and immediately thought of what his accomplice wanted to do.

Born as a Gu Master, he is no stranger to ghosts and the like.

“Yes.” The man wearing the Qilin mask did not deny it. “As the number of times it fails to reincarnate increases, the resentment of this ghost baby will accumulate to a very huge level.”

"At the same time, every time it is the bloodline of the Cao family, it will have extreme hatred towards the Cao family, enough to become a sharp sword for us to cut down the Cao family!"

The sky above where the Infant Drowning Pond was originally located.

Taoist Qingxu took back his domain and reappeared in front of Xu Qing and the others. "Master/Master/Senior."

Taoist Qingxu nodded slightly in response.

"Master, are those two mysterious masked men dead?"

Xu Qing did not see the figures or corpses of the two mysterious men, so he asked out of curiosity, but the answer was beyond his expectation.

"No, in the end they escaped by sacrificing their lives."

"Don't worry about the affairs of those two people. I will let the elders in the temple investigate this matter and report it to the court."

Xu Qing didn't expect that the two men could escape from the hands of their Mahayana master.

However, Taoist Qingxu's advice seemed a bit redundant. Judging from their performance just now, the two mysterious masked men were very powerful. No matter how stupid Xu Qing and the other three were, they would not seek death by getting involved in such a thing.

"Yes!" the four answered in unison.

Taoist Qingxu nodded, waved his hand casually, and his magic power surged, completely dispelling the resentment and negative energy that permeated the surroundings.

"You stay here and chant sutras to send those fallen ghost babies off. I have something else to do, so I need to leave first."

Taoist Qingxu came and left in a hurry. After saying this, his figure disappeared in front of Xu Qing and the other three.

"Farewell, Master/Master/Senior."

After Taoist Qingxu disappeared, the tense bodies of Xu Qing and the other three collapsed, and all four of them revealed a sense of relief for surviving the calamity.

Dasha said with a lingering fear: "Just now I saw my grandmother waving at me."

"Huh." Mo Qingxue was obviously a little scared, her chest heaving up and down as if the ground was shaking. "It was just an ordinary corpse recovery mission, but I almost died here."

"I think those two mysterious masked men are powerful beings at the Return to Void or Integration Realm."

"If they had attacked us from the beginning, we would have died before we even had time to react."

"A powerful being of this level took action personally, which also shows that the corpse of Liu Sanniang's child is very important to those behind the scenes who helped the old dragon escape from the river!" Xu Qing's eyes showed a thoughtful look.

There was one more thing he didn't say - it seemed that the Cao family was a key link in the incident of the old dragon walking across the river.

Judging from all the previous clues, the identity of the Cao family should not be as simple as an ordinary aristocratic family. The existence of this family should be able to affect the situation of the old dragon walking along the river.

That's why the other party would try every means to get rid of the Cao family.

Mo Qingxue and Li Ping'an should know a little about the Cao family's background, but as it may involve family secrets, they are not in a position to tell outsiders.

"They have taken away the body of Liu Sanniang's child. Are they going to use this to attack the Cao family next?" Li Ping'an said worriedly.

Among the four, he has the best relationship with the Cao family, so naturally he doesn't want anything to happen to the Cao family.

"Don't worry." Mo Qingxue patted Li Ping'an on the shoulder. "If we take precautions in advance, the Cao family will be fine, and the court will not let anything happen to the Cao family."

"I hope so." Li Pingan sighed softly.

Afterwards, according to Taoist Qingxu's request, Xu Qing and Li Ping'an chanted "The Wonderful Sutra of the Most High Lingbao Dongxuan Tianzun for Relieving Suffering and Removing Sins" for the dead infant spirits.

Mo Qingxue and Dasha found the old temple keeper and learned from him that the two constables who had come to the Infant Drowning Pond had died.
