Fated Cultivation: I Have Max-Level Divination Skills-Chapter 21: Pig Demons Show Evil, Madam Displays Power

21 Chapter 21: Pig Demons Show Evil, Madam Displays Power

At the entrance of the Heavenly Treasures Trade Branch Association.

Four masked figures gathered together, their eyes filled with coldness. The temperature around them was very low, devoid of any warmth that living beings should have, and a faint stench lingered around them.

"What was the outcome?"

The masked young man was the first to speak.

"We lay in wait by the main and side entrances of the other doors, but we didn't catch a whiff of that kid!"

"Same here, I was in the auction, waiting for him like a hunter waiting for its prey, but there was no trace of him!"

"Boss, what if those two are in cahoots? Were they already gone through the back door as soon as the auction ended?"

The masked young man pondered, "It's highly possible. Originally, this cultivation technique was as good as ours. Suddenly, someone appeared to compete with us for it, it's hard not to suspect that they're working together."

"Boss, is this cultivation technique really that important?"

One of the subordinates asked in confusion.

The masked young man cast a glance at him, speaking indifferently, "It's normal that you don't know since you've just joined Blackwind Cave. A hundred years ago, an Immortal Cultivation Sect developed a mental technique targeting demons, capable of obstructing their psychic erosion on the human race. At that time, the demons suffered huge losses, and the humans gained the upper hand."

"Is it the same cultivation technique we're looking for?"

His subordinate asked.

The masked young man nodded, "Indeed, due to internal strife within the human race, that sect has now fallen into decay and become a ruin."

"Before invading, we in Blackwind Cave received information about this technique. In order to ensure the smooth progress of our plan, we must eliminate any unfavorable factors first."

A fierce glint flashed in the masked young man's eyes.

The plan of Blackwind Cave was originally aimed at Jinzhou, to further infiltrate the human race. But now that they had discovered the re-emergence of the Insanity Technique, it posed a great threat to them.

They absolutely could not allow the current human race to discover the true purpose of the Insanity Technique, otherwise, their survival space would be further squeezed.

In other words, if they couldn't get their hands on it, they would be forced to change their target and aim for other states and counties.

"Boss, look! There's a human woman over there."

At this point, one of the men by his side pointed and shouted at the woman across the street.

At the street corner, a woman with a cold and beautiful demeanor emerged, dressed in a green silk blouse and a plain white long skirt, her figure stunning.

She scanned her surroundings, clearly looking for someone.

"Strange, I remember my husband mentioning that he would come to the auction to purchase some items. Could it already be over?"

The person who arrived was Yu Qinghan, who had followed all the way from the pawnshop.

Due to her deep concern for Zhao Huai's safety, she hurriedly went after him, her mind only vaguely remembering the words 'auction' and 'cultivation technique' her husband had mentioned.

She searched the vicinity of the Heavenly Treasures Trade Association, but saw no one.

A sense of dread crept into her heart, unwilling to witness the worst happening.

A cold expression surfaced on Yu Qinghan's face.

Whoever dared to harm her husband, she would make them pay in blood.

"Boss, what do you think? Isn't she beautiful?"

"Not bad, not bad at all. If we made her into a new skin, I imagine the effect would be excellent, probably capturing a large number of men."

The masked young man's eyes were filled with excitement.

For a demon, choosing a good skin was an important task.

A good skin could save them from a lot of unnecessary trouble.

"Excuse me, has the auction already ended?"

"Yes, it ended half an hour ago, and everyone has already left."

Yu Qinghan received the answer from the attendant at the entrance of the Heavenly Treasures Trade Association. She continued to search the nearby streets, her phoenix eyes scanning the street corners, but still, there was no trace of Zhao Huai.

Her anxiety grew more intense.

Suddenly, she noticed four figures tailing her in the corner of her eye. Judging by their skills, they were no ordinary people.

Yu Qinghan's eyebrows furrowed, her phoenix eyes narrowing, as anger surged within her.

I didn't come for you, but you came for me?

Yu Qinghan deliberately walked into a deserted alley before turning around and looking back coldly at the four masked men, saying, "Are you the killers sent by the black market?"

"Killers?"

The masked young man found her words somewhat baffling, subconsciously thinking that the woman had mistaken them for someone else.

"You might as well just think of us as killers."

The masked young man gave a slight smile, his hand stretching out from under the bamboo hat.

It was a pair of ugly, dark-boned claws.

The surrounding subordinates also took on a combat stance, with excited looks on their faces.

Hunting down such fair-skinned and tender flesh woman was simply an overwhelmingly enjoyable task.Yu Qinghan's pendant on her snow-white chest flickered slightly, and a sharp Treasured Sword appeared in her hand.

"It turns out she's a cultivator, no wonder she's so calm."

The masked young man sneered when he saw this scene.

"Just a qi-refining cultivator struggling in vain."

Yu Qinghan kept a cold face and did not speak.

She stabbed out with her sword, its icy light flashing, as fast as lightning.

"Whoosh!"

In that instant, she directly chopped off the masked young man's head.

The rest of the gang were all shocked.

Yu Qinghan appeared behind them and looked at the bloodless sword blade in her hand, frowning again.

"Die!"

A sharp cry came from the severed head of the masked young man.

Clumps of black smoke burst out from the body, converging into the face of an evil pig demon, and pounced straight at Yu Qinghan.

Yu Qinghan slashed with her sword, only to hear a "ding" sound.

Then her body leaped up, flipping several meters away, widening the distance.

Upon closer inspection, the Treasured Sword in her hand had curled.

Yu Qinghan was not surprised; on the contrary, she sneered.

"I wondered where the stench came from, turns out it's four pig demons."

The faces of the four changed in an instant.

Underneath the masks covering their mouths and noses were rows of densely-packed tusks, red mouths, and extremely terrifying pig noses which were very obvious.

After shedding their human skin, they were clearly four extremely ugly demons.

"Kill her, our identities have been exposed!"

The swollen-faced pig demon leading them said in a deep voice.

"Roar!"

Amid the low growls, three gusts of demonic wind suddenly swept through.

Yu Qinghan's expression remained calm, as she lightly touched the jade pendant on her chest and said faintly, "Well, it's just a warm-up then."

The pendant flickered, and a long halberd with a frosty and pointy tip appeared in her hand.

"Ding!"

She gripped the long halberd tightly and stabbed it into the ground, making a loud noise.

"Boom!"

Immediately afterward, a surging killing intent emanated from Yu Qinghan's body.

This aura was incredibly fierce, directly sending the gathering demonic wind back.

The swollen-faced pig demon fell to the ground with a thud, and exclaimed in shock, "Is this... a magical weapon?"

As far as he knew, magical weapons were rare among the human race, not something ordinary qi-refining cultivators could possess. If one did have it, it indicated that the cultivator's strength was definitely very strong.

Undoubtedly, they had run into a formidable opponent this time.

Before the four demons could react, Yu Qinghan had already vanished from her original spot, halberd in hand.

"Boom!"

As the halberd swept by, it carried explosive True Qi, and with the power of the magical weapon, shattered the green slatestone in the surroundings.

The swollen-faced pig demon was completely wiped out by the magical weapon.

As Yu Qinghan coldly glanced at the trembling bodies of the other three demons, her demeanor did not change.

"Please spare..."

Before they could finish pleading, Yu Qinghan snapped their heads, killing them on the spot.

After settling the situation at hand, Yu Qinghan retracted her long halberd. However, her mood did not improve, as these were just some minor, insignificant demons. Killing them meant nothing.

Her goal was to find Zhao Huai, but there were no clues at the moment.

"Madam?"

Yu Qinghan walked home with an anxious heart, as a familiar voice suddenly came to her ears.

She turned her head and saw Zhao Huai holding a bag of vegetables, looking shocked.

"Husband?"
