Chapter 67: Missing (1/2)

Jiang Li ran down and looked at the bamboo shed where the banquet was held.

The three underlings who harbored ill intentions were already busy to the point of dizziness. However, they were at the mid-stage Qi Refinement realm after all. They were still capable of taking on such high-intensity tasks.

Behind them, six large white sacks as tall as a person were already full. The seventh sack was also about to be filled.

There was only half a box of silver left. It could not last long.

Gasp!

Jiang Li could not help but gasp. This was the first time he knew that the Soul Capturing Bag could be filled so fully.

This time, he had only brought ten bags with him when he went out. He did not expect that he would be able to fill seven of them in just a short time.

This was nearly 70,000 human souls. In Jiang Li's two lifetimes, it was questionable whether he had even seen 70,000 people.

With so many dead and their souls captured, Jiang Li felt his scalp go numb.

However, now was not the time to think about this.

Jiang Li hurriedly called the 30 burly men over. He first took out the gold, jewels, and other non-standard valuables from the city lord's mansion and temporarily replaced them.

Then, he called a few carriages and got them to knock on the door of the nearby bank to move the silver.

Jiang Li carried seven large sacks and left in an empty direction.

After the emergency operation, the silver was replenished. The souls in the Soul Capturing Bag were also transferred to the coffin, and the cloth bags were freed to be used again.

One after another, vaguely visible souls were sent into the coffin. Jiang Li should have been excited that the Yin qi in the coffin had been replenished, but he was still unable to feel happy.

So many were dead… and why exactly were they doing this?

Shouldn't cultivators not slaughter mortals wantonly?

...

Another four hours passed.

The next day, around seven to nine in the morning.

It did not rain that night, but the dark clouds did not seem to dissipate.

The originally bright sky was also dark and oppressive because of the thick black clouds.

At this moment, a small flag at the entrance of the inn suddenly shook more and more.

Soon, a violent wind blew from the northeast to the southwest, blowing the small flag so hard that it was kept straight the entire time.

The weather could no longer be described as strange.

With such thick clouds and such strong winds, how much rain and thunder would it rain?

Knock knock~

There was another knock on the door.

Jiang Li exited from the state of listening to the Heart Sutra. He waved his hand and used his spiritual qi to open the door.

The person who appeared at the door was none other than one of the three lackeys, Da Qiang.

At this moment, he had a look of panic on his face and wanted to say something but hesitated.

”If you aren't working hard down there, why did you come up to me?”

Just based on the content of their secret plan, Jiang Li did not believe that they would come to him with good news.

”This… this… Senior Brother Jiang Li, Ah Niu… he's gone!”

Da Qiang hesitated for a long time before finally saying this.

Jiang Li's gaze flickered. He knew that this Ah Niu was the fellow who had 'seen through' him.

He immediately closed his eyes and attempted to use his five divine senses to communicate with the wooden mask on Ah Niu's body.

The masks Jiang Li gave them were naturally not for decoration.
