Don't take it, I switched to the ruthless way

In recent years, Zhuoping has been fond of planting spiritual plants in this small yard.

Under his careful care, the whole yard was filled with spiritual plants that shone with all kinds of spiritual lights. As he patiently took care of these spiritual plants, his impetuous mind would slowly be soothed.

The spiritual energy in his yard is also very abundant. Some of it is released through some kind of spiritual plants that can produce spiritual energy, but more of it is the spiritual stones he scatters everywhere through formations that continuously provide for himself and the people in the yard. Some precious spiritual plants provide sufficient spiritual energy.

Zhuoping came to the yard again that day, and when he was infusing spiritual energy into a spiritual plant that was about to mature, he suddenly noticed that the barrier in Shi Yao's room had dissipated.

Zhuoping was in a daze, and he didn't know what he was feeling for a moment.

Sure enough, not long after, Shi Yao opened the door, walked out, and looked at Zhuo Ping's back quietly.

Zhuoping closed his eyes, took a deep breath before standing up and turning around as if nothing had happened.

He lowered his head and bowed to Shi Yao, "Disciple pays homage to the true master."

Shi Yao didn't seem to notice Zhuo Ping's strangeness at all, and said: "You must have saved me from a lot of trouble and danger when I was in coma. Thank you! I owe you a favor. Do you have any requests? As long as I can If you do it, you will definitely be rewarded.”

Zhuo Ping was silent for a while and then said: "The true master is in danger. Now that the disciple has encountered him, he naturally cannot stand idly by."

Shi Yao glanced at him and said, "I can clearly distinguish between right and wrong. Since I said I owe you once, you don't have to worry anymore. After all, what do you want me to do?"

Zhuoping still lowered his head and said softly: "The disciple has a friend. She does have a very difficult problem. The disciple wants to ask the true master to personally help her."

Shi Yao did not respond immediately and asked him, "What difficult and difficult matter is it?"

As soon as he finished speaking, he noticed two people coming outside the yard.

They were a man and a woman. The man was pushing a wheelchair with both hands, while the woman was sitting very quietly in the wheelchair with a plain face.

The man was obviously a subordinate of the woman in the wheelchair. He took two steps forward, raised his hand and knocked on Zhuoping's courtyard door.

Then Zhuoping raised his head, looked at Shi Yao and said, "Zhenzun, my friend is here. Can I let her explain it to you in detail?"

Shi Yao nodded noncommittally.

Zhuoping strode forward and opened the courtyard door.

The male subordinate outside the door had returned to the wheelchair, while the woman in the wheelchair greeted Zhuoping with a faint smile, "Zhuo Ning, I'm here to bother you again."

After Zhuoping smiled and nodded at her in return, she hurriedly bowed to Shi Yao and said, "I'm the Lord of Xuyang City, Lu Zexia, and I have met fellow Taoist Taoist."

Shi Yao also bowed to her, but did not reveal his identity.

Unless necessary, she never reveals her true identity or name when traveling.

According to the current situation, Zhuoping used a pseudonym for Lu Zexia, and he did not explain her true identity to Lu Zexia.

The subordinate behind Lu Zexia held the backrest of the wheelchair with both hands, and with a strong movement of his palms, he directly lifted the wheelchair and Lu Zexia into the small courtyard.

Shi Yao watched silently, but felt a little weird in her heart: "Looking at her aura, it is obvious that she has reached the early stage of becoming a god. Even if a monk who has reached this level has broken or disabled some part of his body, but if it is really It's not difficult to regenerate a broken limb. Is there anything she has to hide?" Shi Yao only had a fleeting thought like this and didn't delve into it too deeply.

Everyone has secrets, and she is not particularly interested in other people's secrets.

But since Zhuoping wanted to use his favor on Lu Zexia, she had to care.

But what Lu Zexia wanted to ask Shi Yao to do next was not for herself, but to ask Shi Yao to help her kill an evil cultivator.

Shi Yao's expression did not change, and he pondered for a moment before asking: "Is the injury on Fellow Daoist Lu's body also caused by that evil cultivator?"

Shi Yao looked at her empty hem without hesitation.

Lu Zexia touched the empty hem of her clothes below her thighs, with a hint of pain on her face, mixed with some indistinguishable complexity, "So be it."

Shi Yao frowned and looked at Lu Zexia solemnly, "Since fellow Taoist you want me to help you get rid of the evil, then please explain the matter more clearly. After all, you are already in the early stages of becoming a god. , was actually hurt by that evil cultivator, and I think that evil cultivator was a bit difficult to deal with. Although I promised to return Zhuo Ning's favor, I don't want to be put in danger because of any concealment from you."

Lu Zexia also realized her gaffe, and was afraid that she would really offend Shi Yao and miss this rare opportunity. She apologized and said, "Sorry, I was a little gaffe."

She took a deep breath, adjusted her mentality, and then said in a somewhat difficult voice: "That evil cultivator is actually the previous city lord of Xuyang City, and he is also my biological father."

Hearing this, Shi Yao was immediately surprised.

It was the first time that Shi Yao encountered being asked to kill his biological father.

However, there are actually a lot of weird things in this world of immortality. Shi Yao felt calm when he thought about it.

Lu Zexia's face turned bitter, and her face lost the calmness and indifference she had when we first met. "But he is just an evil cultivator now and is no longer worthy of being my father."

Lu Zexia's father, named Lu Xiuhong, was once a good city lord who worked hard for Xuyang City.

But later on, I don’t know what happened. He suddenly disappeared overnight, and his soul lamp also went out not long after.

Lu Zexia has been very talented in cultivation since she was a child. After her father disappeared, her cultivation level has reached the Nascent Soul stage. Therefore, with the help of a group of loyal subordinates, she naturally became the lord of Xuyang City.

But since she became the city lord, she gradually noticed some clues: some casual cultivators in Xuyang City always disappeared for no reason, and there was no trace left, disappearing cleanly.

But just because it disappeared so cleanly, as if it had been specially handled by someone, what really made Lu Zexia suspicious and found out the clues was that one of her friends also disappeared.

In fact, there are many casual cultivators coming and going in Xuyang City every day, and there are countless monks coming and going. The temporary disappearance of these people is not something worthy of attention at all.

But Lu Zexia is different. She is so thoughtful that she can detect even the slightest mistake and try her best to investigate secretly. Moreover, since she became the city lord, nearly five people in Xuyang City have disappeared one after another in the past two hundred years. Hundreds of people.

Later, she finally found clues and learned that a few more casual cultivators had also disappeared in the direction she was tracking.

So she immediately gathered people and rushed there quickly.

Who would have thought that it was during this trip that all the twenty subordinates she took out were killed, and she suffered severe injuries as a result. Her legs were broken by her father, who had become an evil cultivator.
