Upon hearing this, Shangguan Ce was somewhat uneasy. How could news have affected Li Qing'an in just a few days?
With the extremely limited manpower of Burning Incense Valley within the Demonic Sect's territory, how could they possibly accomplish this?
Is this idiot falling into someone else's trap again?
However, he didn't show it, he just listened to what Li Xun said.
As the saying goes, "three men can make a tiger."
The rumors about Li Qingan have been circulating for a long time and have many versions.
Some say Li Qing'an betrayed his master and ancestors; some say he committed murder and arson; others say he abducted respectable women, and so on.
It's as if Li Qing'an is a born bad seed.
The kind of meal where they don't pay.
However, few people talk about Jin Ping'er and Bi Yao from the Demonic Sect.
As the saying goes, one should seek good fortune and avoid misfortune!
As a righteous person, it's not a problem for Li Qing'an to say a few words to him; after all, he wouldn't kill them over such a small matter.
It wasn't them who spread it.
But it's different for members of the Demonic Sect. If you spread rumors, they'll say, "If I hear the Way in the morning, I can die content in the evening!"
If I know the way to your house in the morning, I can dismantle your house by evening!
With such a formidable reputation as a demonic sect, how could the messenger dare to speak of it?
Don't you die?
After listening, Shangguan Ce finally spoke:
"Let's leave this matter alone and let things take their course, lest we give ourselves away!"
Li Xun nodded, his expression full of excitement.
'Li Qing'an, you've finally met your match. Even though I'm no match for you in any way, I can still disintegrate you from the righteous path.'
Everything you enjoy now belongs to me!
Li Xun was indulging in his own thoughts, seemingly already envisioning the tragic fate that awaited Li Qing'an.
Unfortunately, neither of them realized that Li Qing'an's status was due to the sect, the system, and his own hard work.
It's just some reputation, what good does it do for Li Qing'an?
Even the Ghost King only wanted to create some trouble for the Qingyun Sect and give him some time to gather the Four Spirits.
Just then, there was a rapid knocking at the door.
"Uncle-Master Shangguan, I have something important to report!"
"come in!"
The disciples of Burning Incense Valley, their foreheads glistening with sweat, ran all the way over and bowed respectfully to Shangguan Ce, saying:
"Uncle-Master, something terrible has happened! After the Miao people were attacked by the Li people, the bone jade and bone staff they possessed have disappeared."
"According to our spies who infiltrated the Miao people, it seems that both sacred artifacts have been stolen."
"what?"
Shangguan Ce, who had just been calm, suddenly changed his expression.
If he remembered correctly, the sacred artifacts of the other three races were also stolen.
That's why he sent his disciples to investigate the Miao and Li ethnic groups.
Now, all five sacred artifacts are lost.
This is a very bad omen!
Shangguan Ce stood up and looked in Yun Yilan's direction, a cold smile and worry flashing through his mind.
"Go and gather more information. I will report this matter to the Valley Master!"
After Shangguan Ce finished speaking, he disappeared from the spot.
Just as Yun Yilan heard the news that his century-long plan had been ruined and was seeking a way out.
......
Deep in the Ten Thousand Mountains, in the Black Forest near the Black Mountain.
Li Qingan and his two companions looked at the mutilated corpse lying on the ground.
The corpse's left arm had been severed, but the wound had been bandaged, and there was a bloody hole in its chest.
Who else could it be but Ahtai, who took a single, ordinary sword strike from Li Qing'an that night!
Judging from his appearance, he was probably killed by that blackwood.
Moreover, judging from the time of his death, Heimu had already been in the Demon-Suppressing Cave for some time.
Li Qingan glanced at it twice, then looked up at a stone cave at the foot of Black Mountain not far away.
Meanwhile, Xiaobai and Lu Xueqi, standing beside them, easily killed the strange monster that was a combination of a tiger and a leopard, and a pig and a bear.
Clearly, the two had met many times before and were quite adept at it.
This was also Xiaobai's first time venturing so deep into the Ten Thousand Mountains.
"These monsters are truly peculiar, as if they were mutated from several kinds of ferocious beasts."
"This is the power of the legendary beast god of the southern border, capable of altering mountains, generating miasma, and transforming into strange beasts."
A ball of fire appeared in Li Qing'an's hand, burning all the surrounding corpses to ashes. He then pulled the two forward.
A moment later, in front of the Demon-Suppressing Ancient Cave.
The three of them stared silently at a cold, lifeless stone statue of a woman. This was the statue of Linglong, the last witch of the Southern Frontier Witch Clan.
Xiao Bai and his companion, who learned about Li Qing'an's deeds, were filled with admiration for this extraordinary woman.
The fact that no hand was extended to desecrate it signifies that this is the most revered stone statue among the shamanic tribes of southern Xinjiang.
Li Qing'an even planned to make twelve incense sticks according to the sacrificial rules of the Central Plains.
He waved his right hand toward the Black Forest, but before anyone could see what Li Qing'an was doing, he had already made a move.
However, the thousand-year-old sandalwood in the Black Forest is missing a section of its trunk, and the forest is also missing some medicinal herbs such as cypress leaves and mugwort.
These things floated up to Li Qing'an, and then with a clench of his right hand, the materials instantly turned into powder, with flames gently roasting them.
A few breaths later, the flames disappeared.
Twelve incense sticks appeared in Li Qing'an's hand, all of uniform length and thickness, clearly of the highest quality.
Li Qing'an waved his hand, lighting all the incense sticks, and then gave three sticks to each of the two men, leaving six sticks in his hand.
Lu Xueqi didn't ask any more questions, because in the Central Plains, a single person only needs to stick three incense sticks.
There are only three incense sticks left!
But Li Qing'an must have had his reasons for doing it.
After the two placed the incense sticks, Li Qing'an said:
"You just came out, aren't you going to offer incense with us?"
Xiao Bai and Lu Xueqi's pupils contracted. If Li Qingan hadn't mentioned it, neither of them would have noticed the flash of red light in the darkness.
One of the figures was a man wrapped in an incredibly bright silk robe.
He looked in Li Qing'an's direction, came out of the darkness to stand in front of Li Qing'an, and then looked at the stone statue.
Behind him was a cloud of black mist, from which shrieks echoed and shadows swayed, as if countless demons were howling with ecstasy.
"how to use?"
Standing before Li Qing'an was an extremely handsome, or perhaps even alluring, young man.
"You've been watching for so long, you should know what to do! Just do what those two did!"
Li Qingan said casually, as if the two were very familiar with each other, but it was indeed the first time Li Qingan had met the Beast God.
However, his love story, especially the one about unrequited love that led to suicidal thoughts, is truly heartbreaking.
Unfortunately, his behavior was extremely paranoid.
Li Qing'an first tossed the extra three incense sticks to the boy, then stepped forward and lightly placed his own incense sticks under the stone statue.
Upon hearing Li Qingan's words, a hint of surprise flashed in Xiaobai's eyes. She hadn't even noticed it herself?
Another monster resembling Li Qing'an—it's probably the legendary beast demon, also known as the 'Beast God'!
Lu Xueqi was also on guard.
Once such evil spirits are born, they will likely unleash countless bloody storms.
After the boy, who was also the Beast God, took the incense, he first made some strange gestures, and finally inserted the three incense sticks in the place closest to the stone statue.
It's closer than Li Qing'an and the other two!
Chapter 236 The Five Clans Merge, the Witch Clan Reappears!
Inside the Miao ethnic minority's Qilidong altar in southern Xinjiang.
The great wizard suddenly felt a sense of unease and looked at Tu Magu.
"Has the matter of relocating some of the ethnic minorities been settled?"
The great wizard sounded somewhat more spirited, but his worry was still evident.
“Some ordinary people have all been relocated, and some promising talents have also been taken away with them.”
“Some of the younger ones knew we might be facing monsters, and they were clamoring to stay.”
"Look at their skinny arms and legs, what can they do!"
At this point, Tu Magu seemed to smile slightly.
"Did the other ethnic groups stay voluntarily?"
