Master of Strange Dao

Some of their belongings were slightly non-compliant and were directly confiscated.

Although Yu Ziqing didn't understand why people carrying a seemingly ordinary Qi Refinement Spiritual Medicine were deemed non-compliant.

After observing for a bit, Yu Ziqing saw those people pocket the confiscated items, and he understood why.

As he arrived at the city, he immediately saw the person collecting goods stand in his way, wielding a long spear.

"What are you carrying? Hand it over!"

Yu Ziqing raised his eyebrow, struck with his palm, and sent the man flying to the ground, killing him on the spot.

Yu Ziqing glanced around. The junior officers guarding the city backed away in unison, while the surrounding people instinctively distanced themselves. The anticipated scene where someone would shout and a mob would rush to encircle him never occurred.

A junior officer even mustered a polite smile and cupped his hands.

"Misunderstanding, misunderstanding, masters like you don't need to be inspected..."

Yu Ziqing felt somewhat disappointed. At the end period of the Dingmao Era, corruption had reached its peak.

The surrounding people also seemed unsurprised, with no one bothered by the death of a figure of corruption.

By the looks of it, people didn't think the corrupt official died because of his greed, but rather because he lacked vision and deserved his fate.

Yu Ziqing stepped into the city, uninterested in playing around slowly anymore.

After asking about the location of the Ding Family, he directly stormed in.

Yu Ziqing concealed his aura, climbed over the wall with ease, bypassed the simple formations, and opened his Yin God's eyes to observe the changes in the evil qi here.

With just one glance, he noticed a place where the evil qi lingered and did not dissipate.

It was so obvious that any cultivator with some Refining God ability could see through it at a glance.

Yet the person there managed to live peacefully for so long, which was truly unbelievable.

As Yu Ziqing quietly arrived near that place, his ears twitched slightly, and he heard voices talking.

"You'd better keep an eye on Qiu'er. Things have gotten a bit big lately; over a hundred unmarried girls have disappeared near Guichou City."

"Even if he wants to do something, he shouldn't do it near home. That's foolish."

"Qiu'er is seeking his own death and dragging me down with him. Do you think you'll have a good time if things go badly?"

"I can't control him anymore. He's now more powerful than me, and with our mother and his wife protecting him, I can't do anything."

"Whenever I try to act, Mother stands in the way, asking me to kill her first."

"What do you want me to do? Why don't you try persuading Mother?"

"Hmph, I'm just here to tell you, he's becoming more reckless. If things go wrong, don't blame me for being righteous."

"If I lose my position as County Magistrate, do you think our Ding Family will have a chance?"

"Do you think others won't take advantage of this? So naive."

"Uncle, you shouldn't say that. The reason you became the County Magistrate and received various treasures to advance to the Seventh Tier is all thanks to the family's efforts."

Yu Ziqing, hearing this much, didn't want to listen anymore. It was just as he thought; they were all in cahoots, birds of a feather.

Furthermore, the actual number of victims was far greater than recorded.

Yu Ziqing stood outside the building, stepped inside, and seeing them chatting openly with the door wide open, he understood there was no need for further talk.

"Someone, come here!"

The moment they saw Yu Ziqing, the young man with an evil air let out a loud roar.

Yu Ziqing's steps abruptly accelerated, the stones underfoot shattered, and he appeared right in front of the opponent.

He drew power from the ground, his waist bending like a bow, his fist like a long spear. With one punch, even before the opponent's defense magic treasure could collapse, a large hole was punched through it.

Yu Ziqing's fist drove into the opponent's chest, the power bursting through, exploding out his entire back into fragments.

With just one blow, the person was left on the brink of death, barely clinging to life.

Yu Ziqing withdrew his fist and glanced at the man in official attire beside him, letting out a cold laugh.

"Helping the wicked, you're not worthy of living. People like you can even be the County Magistrate of Dadui."

"If this were a few eras ago, you'd die without knowing how you died."

"Do you know what this place is?"

"Who are you?"

"Dingwei City Prefectural Governor, Qing Ziyu."

Upon hearing Yu Ziqing's self-introduction, Ding Tui, the County Magistrate of Guichou City, became slightly dazed and suddenly said,

"This is a sealing formation?!"

"So the True Body came here, that's wonderful. I thought there was only one Evil Dao True Body sealed here."

Yu Ziqing laughed heartily, his strides powerful and confident. As Ding Tui took out his County Magistrate Seal, Yu Ziqing's left hand supported the Prefectural Governor's Big Seal, and his right hand, like a blade, pressed on the Guichou City County Magistrate Seal. He shouted solemnly,

"Guichou City County Magistrate Ding Tui, dereliction of duty, protecting an evil devil, colluding with scoundrels."

"Today, in the name of the Dingwei City Prefectural Governor, I hereby strip you of your official position!"

"You, the Prefectural Governor of Dingwei City, have no right to judge me!" Ding Tui exclaimed in shock and anger, holding tightly onto the big seal.

Yu Ziqing's face turned cold.

"Now that the Divine Dynasty is no more, I am the highest-ranking position in the Divine Dynasty. Stripping you of your official position is justified and reasonable."

As Yu Ziqing's words fell, the light shone on the Guichou City County Magistrate Seal, which automatically released Ding Tui's hand, leaving it in Yu Ziqing's grip.
