Chapter 645: Chapter 194: The Fury of Daoist Priest Fan! Crossing a Red Line! (A 10,000-word mega Chapter, please subscribe)_2
His pallid face instinctively answered the question, "Roughly, it was over two months ago that we arrived in Qiulong County."
"In Qiulong County, the Blood Gu Sect has about seven hundred people, but most of them are ordinary sect disciples. As for cultivators like myself, there are only a dozen or so in total."
"Our... our purpose for coming to Qiulong County was to make the final preparations to overturn the Great Zhou Dynasty. We already knew that the old Emperor of the Great Zhou wouldn’t last much longer. So we planned to take over some of the remote counties within the Great Zhou first. After all, imperial power doesn’t reach those counties, and even if we occupied them, nobody would know."
"I can’t remember exactly how many citizens of Qiulong County have died at our hands... Officially, it could be a few hundred, maybe a thousand. In any case, it’s not a small number..."
After all the answers had been given.
It was only then that this disciple of the Blood Gu Sect suddenly realized. He noticed that he wasn’t in the unfathomable depths of the sea but inside Qiulong County.
He also realized that he seemed to have blurted out some things he shouldn’t have.
What kind of extremely strange secret technique was this?
Or was it just an imposing aura? Had he simply been frightened by the other person’s aura so much so that he spilled everything he knew?
The face of this Blood Gu Sect disciple was filled with disbelief. He felt that he shouldn’t be so terrified by someone’s aura, should he? It couldn’t be that he was this weak, could it?
But such a thing...
Had happened to him.
The intense pain in his knees and the fear in his heart made the Blood Gu Sect disciple cry out in disbelief, "Who exactly are you?! What kind of person are you, anyway?! Do you know who you’re offending now? We are the Blood Gu Sect! We have a million disciples; we have..."
Crack!!!
Before the Blood Gu Sect disciple could finish his sentence, he was stomped into the ground by Fan Wu’s foot.
His body folded into a bizarre posture, and the bones inside him shattered one by one.
The broken bones pierced through his flesh.
The exposed bones, surrounded by blood, painted the ground red; it was extremely bloody and chilling to see.

Such a paltry amount of Free Attribute Points...
Was directly ignored by Fan Wu.
Then, he turned his attention to Head Arrestor Liu in front of him, who was also an old acquaintance, and not just a familiar face.
At this moment, Head Arrestor Liu was staring dumbfounded at Fan Wu, his face full of shock and disbelief.
Head Arrestor Liu even wondered... if he was dreaming or seeing some illusion?
He had just been thinking about how he would get the message to Daoist Priest Fan so he could come back and save everyone, right?
Then he suddenly discovered that Daoist Priest Fan was right in front of him. Wasn’t this coincidence a little too uncanny?
In a daze, Head Arrestor Liu slapped his own face fiercely. The slap was so hard that his cheek stung with pain, almost tearing the skin inside his mouth.
Feeling the stinging pain, Head Arrestor Liu realized that he wasn’t dreaming.
What he saw was not a dream.
It was reality!
Daoist Priest Fan had truly returned; he had come back to Qiulong County, he had come to rescue everyone!
Intense emotions overwhelmed Head Arrestor Liu, and tears welled up in his eyes. His knees went weak, and he knelt toward Fan Wu, crying out with a sob in his voice, "Daoist Priest Fan, you’ve finally come back! Daoist Priest Fan, there’s serious trouble in Qiulong County!"
It was as if Head Arrestor Liu had suddenly grasped a lifesaving straw. The fear he felt toward the Blood Gu Sect vanished the moment Fan Wu appeared.
He continued to shout excitably, "And the rebels... they don’t treat people like humans at all, anyone who disrespects their command, they kill without mercy!"
"They have killed many people already in Qiulong County, so many that Chaos Burial Mound can’t even hold all the bodies anymore!"
Then, Head Arrestor Liu recounted everything he had witnessed during this period.
The more he spoke, the more wronged he felt.
Head Arrestor Liu, after all, was an arrest officer in a county of the Great Zhou Dynasty, someone who once carried great authority. Yet, upon returning to Qiulong County, he inexplicably went from a commanding arrest officer to someone else’s lapdog.
Such a contrast was really hard to accept.
Moreover, he felt... compared to some of his colleagues, he had still managed to keep his conscience clear.
He knew that some of his peers, in order to please those rebels from the Blood Gu Sect, even turned their blades toward the elders and folks of Qiulong County.
Head Arrestor Liu, on the other hand, was a bit better. He looked for loopholes in the rules at every turn, wanting to take care of more people.
Yet, his actions were discovered. If Daoist Priest Fan had not arrived in time, he felt he would have become a corpse already, an extremely chilling one at that.
