Chapter 248: Evidence

"Evidence."

Wu Wu Pifu stood his ground again. With an expressionless face, his twelve-year-old appearance, and dead-fish eyes, he said, "Talk is cheap. I saw with my own eyes that they are nothing but walking lumps of meat, things that are completely on their knees from body to soul and unable to get back up. If you want to convince me, then give me evidence to prove that what you're saying isn't a lie."

Ren Ping immediately said, "I can't do that right now. All the historical texts in the city are in an invisible state. Unless there is a sacrifice, the creation of a magic tool, or an Luo Han preaching, there is simply no way to provide you with evidence. But I swear I am not lying. Please give me a chance to prove I am not lying!"

Wu Wu Pifu stared at Ren Ping for a long time before lightly flicking his clothes. Ren Ping's hands were immediately flicked away as if he had been electrocuted. As he was about to pounce again with a look of despair on his face, Wu Wu Pifu said, "Fine, I'll give you this chance. At the next sacrifice, the creation of a magic tool, or that so-called Luo Han preaching, you show me the evidence. I don't want to see any messages left in the city. Take me to the wilderness, to see these so-called ruins you speak of, to see that line 'Leaving behind liver and gall, two Kunlun Mountains.' If it's true, I will acknowledge your method. How about that?"

Ren Ping was overjoyed and immediately went to kneel, but Wu Wu Pifu grabbed him and forbade him from kneeling, saying, "I don't like people kneeling to me. The reason I am willing to believe you is because I think you are a person, and I am a person too. There should be some honesty between people, so I am willing to give this chance. Likewise, the reason I decided to just charge in and kill earlier was because I felt they were not human. That is all."

Wu Wu Pifu then released Ren Ping. He looked at the sky and said, "It's late. You should get some sleep too. In order to lurk among the Sinners, I imagine you all labor every day and are very tired... When there is a sacrifice, the creation of a magic tool, or a sermon, I will come to see you again."

After saying this, Wu Wu Pifu leaped up, jumping over ten meters high, and then, as if weightless, bounded across the tops of various buildings. In just a few seconds, he disappeared into the night.

Only then did Ren Ping sit down on the ground, his body limp. With a solemn face, he carefully pondered the night's encounter. After a long while, he muttered to himself, "To think he really is an Outer Realm Demon. Then the things in the historical records can be verified... And he said he treats me as a person, and he is a person too. Could it be that this Outer Realm Demon is actually a human?"

"But how could a human be so powerful?"

Ren Ping shook his head and finally lay down on the ground. But he tossed and turned, unable to sleep no matter what. All sorts of thoughts entangled him, and his heart was filled with both excitement and fear.

On the other side, Wu Wu Pifu returned to his residence. He didn't overthink things; he had already made his decision. He would wait for Ren Ping to show him the so-called evidence to prove that what he said was true. If it was true, he would naturally handle it according to the real situation. If it was false, he wouldn't do anything to Ren Ping; it would just mean turning around and starting to kill city by city.

He wouldn't deliberately kill those Sinners or Purified Ones; he would only target the monks. But he wouldn't have any taboos or protections either. If people died in the aftermath of the fighting, so be it. He would only treat these people as lumps of meat. Likewise, if these Sinners and Purified Ones wanted to be loyal to their masters when the time came, he would kill them too.

Other than towards people, he wouldn't have the slightest pity or hesitation for these non-human things.

So, after Wu Wu Pifu returned to the building, he found a room at random, lay down, and fell asleep. When he opened his eyes, it was dawn. The night passed without incident, and he had a peaceful sleep.

Not long after he woke up, the two women, who had slept for a day and a night, also woke up. Their spirits had completely recovered, and not long after getting up, they began chattering about the horrors of the night outside the city.

Wu Wu Pifu ate his breakfast on his own, not participating in the two women's conversation at all. After they had talked for a while, Jiu Jiu asked Wu Wu Pifu, "Before we fell asleep, Wu Wu Pifu, did you say you found the target?"

Wu Wu Pifu nodded and said, "Yes, I found the target. Come to think of it, my Martial Dao Will actually has a sense of tracking and locking on. As long as they haven't gone to the ends of the earth, I can sense their general location from very far away. They can't run even if they want to."

Jiu Jiu tilted her head slightly, revealing a very cute expression of confusion.

Jiu Jiu's appearance was actually quite beautiful. Strictly speaking, especially after swallowing the demon spirit, she had a kind of bewitching charm. In terms of looks, she was even more beautiful than Zhao Zhao Fubao. Seeing her reveal such a confused and naive look, Wu Wu Pifu happily reached out and rubbed her little head.

He naturally knew what Jiu Jiu was confused about, so he said, "It's not that I won't immediately rush up and kill them, but that I have made an agreement with a person in this world, and I am preparing to confirm some things before taking action."

Jiu Jiu didn't ask any more questions. She was already used to quietly accompanying Wu Wu Pifu. At this time, she naturally started eating, occasionally chatting with Daphne.

Just then, suddenly, from the end of the street, more than a dozen Lesser Sinners—that is, those who could serve as slaves in the Purified Zone—ran past. They stopped in front of every building where Purified Ones lived and shouted loudly that there would be a grand Buddhist ritual at noon, and that the Great Bhikkhu Fazheng would personally create magic tools such as Thangkas, and that everyone could go to the scene to worship Buddha.

Wu Wu Pifu naturally heard this too. After these dozen Lesser Sinners shouted, they ran towards the Sinner Zone outside the Purified Zone. Very quickly, Wu Wu Pifu heard cheers coming from everywhere in the Sinner Zone.

This made his eyes narrow. He suppressed the surging killing intent in his heart and just lowered his head to continue eating his food in large mouthfuls.

These things... until he saw enough evidence, he refused to call these things human!

He could understand slaves, he could understand being enslaved, and he could even understand human traitors and lackeys who had evil in their hearts, worshiping those above and bullying those below. These were just things to be killed, and he wouldn't have such deep anger.

What he couldn't understand was this rush towards pain, towards enslavement, towards becoming magic tools!!

If they were lifeless, if they dared to be angry but dared not speak, if they were forced, in pain, and could only watch helplessly as they were bullied, then Wu Wu Pifu would stand up for them without a second word. But what were they?

They were kneeling, worshiping, and from the bottom of their hearts, they felt that becoming magic tools for these monks, being exploited by them, and using the flesh and blood of their own relatives, parents, wives, and children as magic tools was a supreme honor?

Wu Wu Pifu refused to acknowledge them as human! At least for now!

"So soon, there's a sacrifice and magic tool creation?"

Wu Wu Pifu muttered. Then he looked at the sky and decided to wait a while, waiting until the sacrifice was about to begin before going to find Ren Ping.

When the two women finished eating, they followed Wu Wu Pifu to a sacrificial site in the Purified Zone. By this time, it was already a sea of people. At the core were naturally more than a hundred monks wearing red and yellow robes. Slightly further out, those with seats and various services were the Purified Ones, and on the outermost periphery was a sea of Sinners. They were all full of excitement and reverence, and many were even kowtowing repeatedly.

This scene made Wu Wu Pifu narrow his eyes again. Then he saw eight men and women standing in a group with the monks.

This was the target. These eight people hadn't even changed their clothes; they were all wearing outfits similar to tight combat armor, completely out of place with the surrounding crowd.

Wu Wu Pifu didn't get close, just watching all this from the shadows of a very distant building. Then he saw more than a dozen monks walk out from the stage. They bypassed the Purified Ones and began to pick something from the surrounding Sinners. And these Sinners were all kneeling and praying, each actively showing themselves. Very quickly, more than a hundred Sinners were picked out, half men and half women, with no elderly people. They were either strong young men, or young women of appropriate age and appearance, and more than thirty were children in their teens...

Wu Wu Pifu took several deep breaths. He really endured and endured, enduring extremely hard, to the point that even his Martial Dao Will felt like it was expanding and going out of control.

Just as Wu Wu Pifu intended to turn around and find Ren Ping, he suddenly froze and turned his head to look at a building further away.

At the same time, the eight people in the monk group, except for the thin old man who seemed to remain sluggish, all stiffened.

!

"... The pursuers have arrived and are aiming at us!" the refined, violent man said in a low voice.

The other six nodded. At this moment, closest to them was an elderly monk.

He had a very high status and was currently having ghee smeared all over his body by other monks. Hearing this, he smiled and said, "Let them attack. The Master has already set up the Vajra Formation. With the extraction of the million lives in this city, they cannot break it in one strike. And as long as they attack, the Master can immediately mark them, and then follow them to anchor the Real World."

The seven people's faces were slightly gloomy, but at this moment, they didn't say anything more.

And in that building, more than thirty men and women who had transformed into Purified One clothing, but were actually wearing tight combat suits, had five of their number lying down to set up long-range sniper weapons.

"Input extraordinary energy!"

A red-haired woman was also lying down, and she ordered in a low voice.

Suddenly, strange fluctuations appeared on the five people. The red-haired woman waited a few seconds before continuing, "Deploy the extraordinary counter-program, restore the power of the technological weapons."

"Deployment complete... technological weapon power restoration value 18%."

The red-haired woman stared at the scope and said, "18%... that's enough. Start long-range point-killing. Except for the Chairman of the First Company, annihilate all other cadres."

All five put their fingers on the triggers. Then, suddenly, a big face appeared in their scopes.

The next instant, the five high-end sniper rifles shattered into slag. A dead-fish-eyed boy of about twelve, wearing a "Wu Pifu" title and a "Kratos" title, stood in front of the five.
