Boom!

The battle broke out.

Scholar Li fought and retreated at the same time, hastily warning everyone: "There is deceit, definitely deception, this manor is incredibly strange, you cannot believe what they say."

He unexpectedly drew a soft sword from his waist, its cold light sharp and fierce.

"I am Li Ke, upholding justice, traveling far and wide for many years, slaying demons and monsters, I have no guilt in my heart."

The scholar, embodying righteousness, spoke solemnly:

"I've been hiding amongst you, the victims, to protect you all the way out of the city, but unexpectedly encountered such sinister matters. Don't listen to the scoundrels' nonsense!"

But this group of villagers was already swayed, leaving him with wisdom he couldn't express.

"Capture him first."

"I've always thought there was something wrong with him."

"Arrest him."

The villagers were indignant, their minds in chaos.

Scholar Li, a smart person, suddenly thought of something, looking towards Su Yuniang:

"It's you, it's this manor playing tricks, causing travelers like us to kill each other! You are the internal agents! Two innocent people were killed in the inn, and I was framed."

Su Yuniang was startled.

Indeed, there are no fools here.

If this scholar swordsman was given time to investigate, he might really find out the truth.

But you are already trapped in a circle of suspicion.

Will others believe him?

To save their own lives, their first choice is to capture you first.

We who wronged you know better than yourself: how innocent you really are now.

"We can't let him go."

Su Yuniang cried tearfully, shouting:

"Brothers, this scholar used the hidden soft sword at his waist to kill two people, the innocent food kidney, and the innocent Shao Chaikun... They died so tragically, such a serial killer can't be left, or more will be harmed. Let's tie him up first."

"Exactly!"

The bystander Dizzy, pointing at the scholar, also spoke:

"Dare you say you have no suspicion at all? If you're problem-free, why hide the murder weapon, why not surrender?"

The Medical Fairy spoke slyly:

"Brothers, you are all the best people, surviving the snowstorm to get here, after much suffering, you can't be harmed by this stinky scholar."

The three Embers began to speak of the deaths of those two, pointing all evidence towards this scholar.

"You! You all!"

Scholar Li was immediately furious, unable to justify himself, fuming with anger:

"Do not listen to these slanderous words, these days, I've protected you across mountains and ridges, you all know how I am to you."

"I and a few close friends, while drinking tea in the tea house, couldn't stand seeing victims suffer, and decided to secretly escort you refugees out of the city, saving villagers along the way, thousands, tens of thousands... A great migration of people."

"In the end, after facing various disasters, only a few of us remain, I still protect you, yet you don't trust me."

Scholar Li sighed.

If it weren't for his secret escort, how could they possibly escape to this wilderness.

The leading refugee named Gou Zhu shouted angrily:

"What secret escort? I see you just used us common people as targets to cover your own escape from Pingchang City, your intentions are sinister."

"You!" The scholar was so angry he gnashed his teeth, feeling his conscience fed to the dogs.

Boom!

A battle broke out.

That scholar, indeed, was very fierce.

Fighting multiple opponents alone, his sword technique was exquisite, cultivating a lower grade Spiritual Root "Sword Song," resisting the attacks of several villagers.

Even as they fought, they all revealed their true savage forms, hideous and ferocious in appearance, extremely unsightly.

Yet they were oblivious to their own appearances.

Instinctively blocking these images, assuming the opponent was living, considering themselves in a battle with living people.

And on the skylight.

A group of blacksmiths watched intently, discussing:

"These two women are exceptional, the punches are fierce, can't withstand, even this righteous scholar can't withstand."

"Savage infighting has broken out."

Someone rationally analyzed: "This scholar is so fierce, he probably has the level of Five-Body Realm Perfection? Comparable to the Crow King of the past, if we hadn't tricked a group of ghosts into attacking him, we might have suffered great losses."

"Indeed worthy of a world of personal valor, one man taking on a group of us."

Some blacksmiths sighed with emotion:

"It's a pity, upholding justice in life, as in death, but in the process of upholding justice, escorting victims all the way, yet unaware that he and the victims died becoming vicious ghosts, devoured countless with this facade during madness."

"Indeed, even he himself doesn't know he ate people, still believing he's alive."

They felt difficult to express feelings in their hearts.

"If the scholar in life knew of his fate after death, he would perhaps hate that he didn't scatter his soul upon dying."

"Such a hero can't be enslaved, furthermore, we have already made enemies with him, presuming us as evil people, a black inn, he wouldn't understand our internal noble character, our charisma... Sending him to transcendence is the best outcome."

Someone felt deep regret.

Suddenly someone also suddenly spoke: "Look! Su Yuniang has started leading the fight, Su Yuniang is indeed fiercer, ganging up on him."

...

Beside her, the real Su Yuniang watched with great interest.

The other self, indeed, had such fierce combat power, worthy of me.

Leading others to besiege him, making the scholar wail continuously.

Ultimately, his flesh and blood disintegrated, his soul body dwindling, on the verge of death.

"Audacious demon! Dare to display tricks before the master? Quickly reveal your true form!"

Su Yuniang shouted loudly: "With my many years of inhuman experience! I can see at a glance you are absolutely not human!"

Bang!

"You!" Scholar Li's combat power was extreme, but he couldn't withstand the all-sided gang fight, "Everyone heard it, she admitted she's not human!"
