I Can’t Be a Sword God

"This time I met true love."

Wang Longqi's opening remarks are very skillful.

"oh."

Li Chu's reaction was the same as before.

Although he was crying through the bars, seeing Li Chu's face, Wang Longqi's heart was greatly relieved.

He glanced at Li Chu suddenly, and said with a smile: "By the way, didn't you say you didn't want to come to the Huadu Conference? You looked out of low-level fun, but you couldn't help it. How about it, is there any oiran you like?"

Li Chu couldn't help admiring him, so he said lightly, "I'm here for another purpose, so let's talk about you first..."

"Tch." Wang Longqi curled his lips and continued:

"After I said goodbye to you, I went all the way north to here. I formed a team of giant beasts, so I came very quickly."

"I came to Shenluo City originally because I wanted to relax and live a life that... the sun will rise when I open my eyes."

"Who knew that I met my true love here..."

"Her name is Lan Zhi, and she is the daughter of a small family in the south of the city."

"Although her face is not perfect, she has the clearest eyes I have ever seen."

"She was so pure, we knew each other for three and a half days before she agreed to come out and spend the night with me."

"?"

Hearing this, several faint question marks appeared on Li Chu's forehead, but they didn't interrupt him.

"That night, we were on the top of the willow on the moon, and we made an appointment after dusk."

Speaking of the scene at that time, Wang Longqi's eyes became distant.

"At that time we were walking along the river in Los Angeles, with bright lights in the distance and stars above our heads. She said she had something to tell me, and I was waiting, but before I heard what she said, I just turned my head back. Kung fu, she will be gone!"

"Just like that...disappeared out of thin air!"

"I can't think of any other reason than being captured by evil spirits." Wang Longqi said: "I searched around for most of the night, but I still couldn't find her. I went back to the inn and asked someone to look for it with me, but there was still nothing. .As a result, after dawn, their family members came to the door, insisting that I had harmed her, and arrested me."

"Li Chu, you know me."

"I would never do such a thing!"

"But I was the only one present at the time. If I can't find her person, it will definitely be blamed on me." Wang Longqi said in a deep voice: "The people in Chaotianque don't believe me, I don't know if they have checked carefully. That's why I wanted to quickly invite one of my own cultivators to help me find out the whereabouts of Lanzhi, but I didn't expect to invite you here all of a sudden, it's really lucky."

After listening, Li Chudao: "Tell me the specific place where you were at that time, and I will go and have a look. At least I must find evidence of evil spirits infesting, so that I can protect you."

Only then did Wang Longqi's expression become tense, "It doesn't matter if you can save me, even if I get punished, it's fine. But...Lan Zhi is now alive or dead, can you try to save her? I've always been worried about her safety..."

Li Chu took a deep look at him, nodded and said, "I will do my best."

Seeing the blue back of the Taoist priest leaving the prison, Wang Longqi breathed a sigh of relief, and said silently: "Li Chu bless you, Lan Zhi, don't let anything happen to you."

...

Li Chu soon arrived at the date that Wang Longqi had said that night.

The Luocheng River is a tributary of the Luoshui River, flowing through the southwest of the city. There is a archway facing the opposite bank, so it is not difficult to determine.

He first scanned his surroundings very seriously.

Normally, regardless of cultivators or demons and ghosts, they will always leak their own breath when they perform supernatural powers. If it is stronger, it may not disperse in place for a day or two.

After a moment, he opened his eyes and shook his head.

Not a trace.

Not too disappointed though.

If it is so easy to find out, then there is no need to wait for him to come, the people from Chao Tian Que have already found out.

Li Chu began to walk along the river, imagining the state at that time.

Although it was cold at this time, it was not to the point of freezing the Luocheng River, and the river was still flowing slowly aside.

Although there are many supernatural powers in the world, it seems that it is not easy for a person to disappear without a trace in an instant.

It is too rough for Yufeng to arrest people directly, even if Wang Longqi's reaction is slow, he should have sensed it. To absorb people out of thin air from a distance... That's too mysterious, probably only a powerful person has such a means.

Although this possibility cannot be ruled out for the time being...

But it is more likely, it should be another guess, that the person was not far away at that time, but existed in a state that Wang Longqi could not see.

What Li Chu thought of was the Five Elements escape method that Chen Huaji was proficient in.

Almost in an instant, it can enter any object silently—except, of course, Miss Xiaoliu's heart.

In the escape method, if the earth escape is used to lead people, even if it goes well, it will leave faint traces on the ground. As for the water escape, it is much more concealed. Looking from the shore, there will only be a faint ripple, which will disappear after a while.

Li Chu cast his eyes on the river beside him.

Close your eyes again, and explore your mind.

I found a cloud of strong yin energy upstream, which is almost the same as the water ghost in the Heishui River that day, but it is not contaminated with so much resentment.

It seems to be an honest water ghost who is slowly progressing through self-cultivation.

Maybe it can be used as a ghost witness.

Li Chu plunged into the water, and the water drops separated the waves.

Pooh.

Goo, goo.

Pooh.

The sound of water gurgling.

Li Chu's figure was moving fast in the river, and quickly approached the cloud of Yin Qi.

Noticing his approach, the Yin Qi also floated up from the bottom of the water a little.

It was a water ghost with shabby clothes and an old face. Although its body was a shadowy figure, it was much clearer than the water ghosts in the Heishui River that day. Such an honest water ghost has a higher chance of becoming a river god.

Seeing Li Chu coming in front of him, Honest Water Ghost seemed a little surprised, but just looked at him vigilantly, without making a sound.

As an honest water ghost, it may not see too many strangers in its life, so it is inevitable to be vigilant.

Li Chu first asked: "Trouble, my friend had an accident on the bank in front of me late the night before yesterday, and a girl was suddenly taken away. I suspect that the murderer escaped by water. So I would like to ask, have you been in this river all this time?" Practice, have you seen anything?"

"No no."

The water ghost replied impatiently, its face was blurred, but it could clearly feel a little displeased.

I don't know if it's because it's not used to talking with humans, or because it has some fear in its heart.

However, Li Chu can't care less about being polite to it now.

He directly drew out the Chunyang Sword.

The water ghost was startled, and was about to drink and asked what you want to do?

Didn't wait for it to make a sound.

Li Chu has already struck down with his sword.

Of course, this sword was not aimed at the water ghost, but at the water behind it.

boom--

This is not the first time Li Chu has done something like cutting a river with one sword.

The difference from that time is that this time his spiritual power is stronger, so the scope of his development is wider. With the special effect of the Pure Yang Sword, many river waters have not risen to form a water wall, but have been evaporated by the sword energy.

In short, in an instant, a wide ravine suddenly appeared in the middle of the icy Luocheng River, with dazzling red lights, torrenting heat waves, and the sound of dragons chant.

The stretched body of the water ghost's shadow was suddenly exposed to the air, looking extremely dry and thin.

Now Li Chu finally saw its face clearly.

The facial features that have been deformed for a long time, if there is any expression that can be seen... then it is dumbfounded.

Unusually confused.

Of course it has reasons for being dumb.

I am a water ghost...why did I suddenly get exposed to the sun?

There is an inexplicable sense of authority.

and……

The operation of breaking the river with one sword...

Why are you so proficient?

It looked at Li Chu again, and the mood of the whole ghost was not right.

Then Li Chu asked politely: "This matter is very important, so please remember carefully, did you see any cultivators or evil spirits passing by here on the night of the crime?"

He also doesn't like to communicate with ghosts in a threatening way, but... extraordinary times must use some extraordinary means.

In Chao Tianque's understanding, Wang Longqi's chances of committing the crime are higher, so he may investigate it casually, and it will pass without any evil spirit. Even if he had guessed the possibility of escaping, he might not have made such an effort to ask the water ghost. Even if you ask, maybe it will pass after you are dealt with.

In short, Wang Longqi can only rely on him, this time there must be something to gain.

At this time, you must not be soft-handed.

"Um……"

At this time, the water ghost finally recognized his situation.

Although the other party asked very politely.

But can I not answer?

Obviously not.

So it muttered: "I can tell you, but you must not spread it. The person who did that... controls all the ghosts in our Shenluo City... If they know, I will die. "

"Just tell me who it is." Li Chu said lightly.

The water ghost gritted his teeth, and replied: "The descendants of the Yin family."
