Chapter 1989 The massacre of the village was really not done by your Heavenly Fortune Sect.
After Lu Chen returned to the Zhennan Prince's Mansion from the Zhengui Division, the Zhengui Division sent someone to deliver the case file of the wolf demon's murders to the Zhennan Prince's Mansion.
At this moment, Lu Chen was sitting in the pavilion in the west wing, flipping through the files sent by the Zhengui Division.
He glanced briefly at the people the wolf demon had killed, then closed his eyes and thought carefully for a moment, wondering if they had anything in common.
However, after pondering for a long time, he still couldn't see anything in common between them.
Their biggest similarity was that they both lived in the capital.
However, this certainly cannot be taken as evidence that the wolf demon has self-awareness. The wolf demon is in the capital city, so when he kills people, he is of course killing people from the capital city.
Just as Lu Chen was staring blankly at the files on the table, Zhou Youyou came out of the room.
Zhou Youyou wore a light yellow and moon white gauze dress, with delicate butterflies and lotus patterns embroidered on the hem. As she walked, the gauze fluttered, as if accompanied by flowing light.
A matching soft silk belt was tied around her waist, which accentuated her slender figure.
Her long, ink-black hair was styled in a half-bun, with the remaining strands cascading down like a waterfall. A small jade hairpin adorned her hair, making her appear exceptionally charming and captivating.
After she came to Lu Chen's side, she glanced at the files on the stone table and then asked, "Weren't you investigating the evil spirit that massacred the village? Why are you now paying attention to that wolf demon in the capital?"
Zhou Youyou had been staying at the Zhennan Prince's Mansion, so she wasn't very aware of what was happening outside. She didn't know that the wolf demon had been killed yet, and she thought that Lu Chen was looking through these files to investigate the wolf demon.
Hearing Zhou Youyou's voice, Lu Chen came back to his senses.
He instinctively pulled Zhou Youyou's petite and adorable body onto his lap, and then his large hands began to roam freely over her body.
Zhou Youyou had already gotten used to it and didn't resist, letting Lu Chen touch her however he wanted.
Looking at Zhou Youyou's pretty face, Lu Chen asked, "Was the massacre of the village really not done by your Heavenly Fortune Sect?"
Lu Chen had asked Zhou Youyou about this before, but Zhou Youyou said that she did not know that the leader had given such an order, and it should not have been done by their Tianyun Sect.
Moreover, their current goal is to completely integrate into the human world, secretly keeping humans under their control so that humans are unaware that they have become food for humans and will not so openly slaughter people.
Zhou Youyou then said, "At least before I left the Heavenly Fortune Sect, our sect leader never issued an order to massacre a village. Moreover, our sect leader also wanted to integrate into the human world. Furthermore, what our sect leader wanted was more refined and perfect blood food, not those mortals who didn't even have spiritual energy in their bodies."
The most important reason why the Cloud Whisper Butterfly kept humans was to provide them with room to grow and improve their strength before they could be harvested.
The stronger a human is, the more delicious they are to her.
Those mortals don't even possess any spiritual energy, so there's no need to harvest them.
Lu Chen knew that Zhou Youyou wouldn't lie to him. This meant that either the Tianyun Sect had nothing to do with the massacre of the village, or some strange members of the Tianyun Sect were secretly killing civilians behind Yun Yudie's back, treating them as food.
Perhaps guessing what Lu Chen was thinking, Zhou Youyou continued, "The rules of the Heavenly Fortune Sect are strict. Ordinary monsters dare not disobey the sect leader's orders. Since our sect leader said that those monsters are not allowed to kill people at will, those monsters will certainly not cause trouble everywhere. So this matter was probably done by the other few Earth Realm monsters."
Lu Chen asked, "Do you have any other information about the strange beings at the Earth Realm level?"
Zhou Youyou replied, "Ever since our leader escaped, she has parted ways with those few strange beings at the Earth Realm level."
After all, their ideologies were different. Those few powerful beings at the Earth Realm all wanted to destroy the entire Great Zhou Dynasty and turn all its inhabitants into food.
If they really did that, Yun Yudie would definitely stop them. From a self-interest perspective, the Heavenly Fortune Sect and those few Earth Realm monsters were actually enemies. Lu Chen fell into deep thought; Zhou Youyou's words made a lot of sense.
In this way, the Heavenly Fortune Sect can basically be ruled out.
If the massacre of the village was not carried out by the Heavenly Fortune Sect, it was most likely done by the other four Earth Realm experts, or by the Yellow Springs Sect.
The Yellow Springs Cult is relatively low-key, so how could they commit such a thing as massacring an entire village?
Aren't they afraid of being exposed to the world?
Or are they already prepared to be reborn?
Lu Chen felt his thoughts were a bit chaotic, so he simply stopped thinking about it.
We have no clues at the moment, and guessing randomly here won't lead to anything.
But his gaze remained fixed on the files on the stone table, and for a moment the entire courtyard fell silent, with the occasional chirping of birds.
Meanwhile, Lu Chen's restless hands were unconsciously wandering over Zhou Youyou's delicate body.
Seeing that Lu Chen's attention was on the case file but his hands were still wandering, Zhou Youyou pouted, thinking he was a hopeless lecher.
At this moment, Lu Chen suddenly thought of something and then asked, "Does your Heavenly Fortune Sect have any information about the Yellow Springs Sect?"
Zhou Youyou thought for a moment: "I have heard of the Yellow Springs Cult, but we have no dealings with it. I don't know if there is any specific information about the Yellow Springs Cult within the cult, since I don't pay much attention to these things."
Although Zhou Youyou is the Left Protector of the Heavenly Fortune Sect, she doesn't pay attention to everything. Perhaps the disciples of the Heavenly Fortune Sect who collect intelligence have gathered information about the Yellow Springs Sect, but because she is not in charge of these matters, she doesn't know about this information.
Seeing that Zhou Youyou knew nothing, Lu Chen sighed slightly.
Judging from the current situation, it seems that he really has to act as bait to lure out the other strange places.
However, if those four Earth Realm experts don't make any moves, then there's no need for them to rush to capture them.
The later those strange seals on the Earth Realm are placed, the more time the Zhennan Prince's Mansion can gain for development.
Now, Wei Heng, the chief steward of the Zhennan Prince's Mansion, has gone to Guangling County. Before long, the Zhennan Prince's Mansion will be able to develop an army of 10.
At that time, the Prince of Zhennan's Mansion will have enough strength to contend with the royal family.
However, if this drags on, the people of the Great Zhou will likely suffer.
The people of 30 villages near the capital have been slaughtered, and in the remote areas of the Great Zhou Dynasty, it is unknown how many more villages have been wiped out by the supernatural.
Lu Chen thought about it and realized that his most urgent task was to become stronger.
The best way would be to turn the other strange progenitors of the Heavenly Fortune Cult back into his women. However, since humans and strange beings are in a state of conflict, he would have to be far stronger than them to make them his women again.
Or like Zhou Youyou, she might fall in love with him at first sight, but that's probably unlikely.
Zhou Youyou's instant attraction to him must have some special reason; other strange progenitors would most likely not have fallen for him at first sight. (End of Chapter)
