Ace Of Terrans

Chapter 702 Investigation.

Ding Shu was a profit-driven businessman. He put aside his morale stigmas when he saw that he could gain wealth. His succumbent behavior in the face of wealth was not the biggest regret in his life. 

Bo Qingtan clenched his fists and yelled, "Did you sell your soul to the demons as well, you foolish old man." 

Yun Xue grabbed his shoulder and said, "He is unlike us. Do not lose your temper; we must focus on the corpse refiner." 

Bo Qingtan forcefully calmed his mind and said, "We are leaving this place. I do not see anything of value in this place. We should go and find out from the rest of the villagers." 

Shi Lang shook his head and said, "Calm yourself. Never let your personal feelings meddle with the task at hand. We are not vigilantes who would act on their interests. The other thing of interest is this child. I will talk to him and try to find anything of use." 

Ding Shu cowered and hurriedly said, "Sire, is it really important to mix the child with all this?" 

Shi Lang looked at him nonchalantly and replied, "Children notice things that even adults do not. You can keep your heart back where it belongs. I know what to ask and what not to ask." 

The terran dispelled the barrier around them, and the child walked beside Ding Shu. He asked, "Grandpa, are you okay?" 

Shi Lang smiled and nodded at Ding Shu. The old man bit the bullet and said, "Xiao Gun, this immortal master is here to look for your mother and other people. He wants to ask you a few things. Answer honestly, okay, do not hide anything." 

Xiao Gun was hesitant. It was obvious, given that he was a child and his heart was very sensitive. Shi Lang smiled and said, "Do not worry. If you answer my questions honestly, I will give you a gift enabling you to protect yourself and your family." 

The child was immediately charmed. At this moment, he longed for the strength to protect his family. He felt very helpless at the hands of fate. Shi Lang had just come to him with a great deal. The child weighed the pros and cons. He nodded and walked forward. 

Shi Lang smiled and asked, "Can you tell me anything about the guy who took all those people?" 

Xiao Gun thought and nodded. Shi Lang said, "Go on then." 

The child replied, "That person is Cao Yanjing. He is tall and skinny. He used to scare us with scary stories." 

Shi Lang nodded and asked, "Can you tell me what that guy looked like?" 

Xaio Gun nodded. Shi Lang said, "Look into my eyes." 

The child looked into his eyes and found the surroundings changed. He panicked, and the terran said, "Calm down, this is just a place for you to tell me what that person looks like." 

Xiao Gun found that Shi Lang was standing next to him. The terran snapped his fingers, and a young man appeared before them. Shi Lang said, "What is different about this guy from Cao Yanjing?" 

Xiao Gun said, "His nose was broader..." 

The two people fine-tuned, and Shi Lang made sure that he found out the correct appearance of the culprit. He used the advanced interrogation tactics from the federation to lead the young man into revealing the truth. 

Shi Lang finished the interrogation and brought Xiao Gun back to reality. He said, "We have what we need. Now, as agreed, I will leave you a set of cultivation sutra, a fist technique, a sword technique, a spear technique, and a bottle of pills. You can reach the peak of Immortal Soul Realm if you cultivate diligently. 

However, I will leave a seal on your mind and the techniques. You will not be able to pass on my techniques to other people. When you reach the Immortal Soul level, you can leave the town and venture out for new opportunities. Another reason I leave this seal on you is to prevent you from falling to the demonic path. If you ever did find the dark side alluring, you would die before you could try it." 

Xiao Gun nodded and said, "I will not be like that person." 

Ding Shu wanted to talk, but he could not say anything at all. Bo Qingtan was gazing at him like a lamb to slaughter. Shi Lang imparted a set of techniques used by the Asura Hall. He then took out a token of the hall and gave it to the young man. 

He said, "Keep this token on your person. If you ever meet someone who uses the same techniques, show them the token, and they will bring you to me." 

...

Shi Lang and the two left the courtyard to visit other villagers. They did not find anything substantial in these visits, but they could confirm the rest of the information they gained from Ding Shu more or less. 

The three gathered outside the village. They wanted to plan the next step of their hunt. Yun Xue said, "If only we had something that the demonic cultivator used. I could have used the tracking spell to find him." 

Bo Qingtan shook his head, "He is a demonic cultivator, and since he can use such a plan to infiltrate the place, he would not leave behind any trace." 

Shi Lang said, "But can we not use the spells to track those hostages?" 

Yun Xue said, "We can, but only if they are alive." 

Shi Lang nodded and said, "According to the information we have gathered, the ladies were due to deliver the children in a few days. It should be in the next couple of days for the babies to come, and if the corpse refiner is after some occult ritual, he will wait for the babies to be born. The women are most likely to be alive." 

Bo Qingtan hurriedly remarked, "What are we waiting for? Hurry and gather the material."
