The moment Qin Yan's words left his mouth, he suddenly spun around and swung his long sword cleanly and neatly towards the outside of the courtyard. The sword energy instantly collapsed the courtyard wall and directly cut through the black energy outside. The black energy let out a sharp and terrifying scream and retreated backwards. At the same time, Fu Changling rushed towards Shangguan Yuemin. Before everyone could react, he grabbed Shangguan Yuemin's chin and twisted it downward. The moment Shangguan Yuemin opened her mouth, a foul-smelling black energy rushed out of her mouth. However, Fu Changling's hands were faster. He raised his hand and a long string of talismans came out from his fingertips. Then he pressed it against Shangguan Yuemin's mouth and poured it into her mouth.
The black gas could not come out of Shangguan Yuemin's mouth, and Shangguan Yuemin's stomach immediately swelled up. Fu Changling seemed to have expected this. At the moment Shangguan Yuemin's stomach swelled up, the Qinggu fan with runes passed across Shangguan Yuemin's abdomen, immediately suppressing the black gas back. Then Fu Changling threw Shangguan Yuemin up, and Shangguan Yuemin turned over and flew into the air. Before Shangguan Yuemin's back swelled up, another rune hit her, completely sealing the black gas in Shangguan Yuemin's body.
He completed these movements extremely quickly, in just a split second. No one could see them clearly, and they only saw Shangguan Yuemin slamming face-down onto the bed. It was at this moment that Fu Changling suddenly saw some strange runes faintly appearing on her back.
Fu Changling was extremely sensitive to runes. He raised his hand and used his small fan to cut open Shangguan Yuemin's clothes on her back. Shangguan Yuan saw this and immediately roared, "What are you doing!"
Fu Changling didn't bother to pay attention. He stared at the black rune. It was a long string of runes, stretching from the neck to the sacrum. At the end of the sacrum was a black thousand-petal lotus. The characters on the rune seemed familiar to Fu Changling, but he couldn't place where he had seen them. His only certainty was that these weren't the runes Yunze often used.
"Don't go too far."
Shangguan Yuan saw Fu Changling ignoring him and rushed over. He hurriedly covered Shangguan Yuemin with clothes and glared at Fu Changling, "She's dead, and you won't let her go?!"
"Yes," the puppet on Yue Mingsi's shoulder said in a shrill voice, "Master, the people are dead, let it go."
Fu Changling ignored them. He stood beside the bed, thinking about the talisman.
Yun Yu walked up to him and called out cautiously, "Mr. Fu...Mr. Fu."
Fu Changling turned his head, Yun Yu glanced at Yue Mingsi, lowered his voice, and whispered: "Don't worry, my brother and I are not talkative people, we won't reveal your secrets!"
Fu Changling was a little confused and looked curious.
Yun Yu winked at him and said, "I understand. You are hiding your strength and biding your time, pretending to be a pig and eating the tiger. I understand your difficulties and I support you! It's all written in the storybook. People like you will definitely have a bright future! Don't worry, if you have any plans, tell me and I will definitely help you. When you become successful in the future, just don't forget me..."
Yun Yu rambled on and on, and Fu Changling understood what she was saying. This was probably another case of someone who had lost their mind to reading a storybook. He smiled faintly and turned away, completely ignoring the young man.
At this time, Qin Yan had also set up the barrier. He turned around and walked straight to Fu Changling's side. Looking at Shangguan Yuemin lying on the bed, he asked, "What is it?"
Fu Changling looked up at Qin Yan. He was a little surprised. This was probably the first time Qin Yan met him, but he trusted him so much?
Or did Qin Yan trust the Fu family so much back then?
Come to think of it, his reputation outside is probably not very good now.
At seventeen, he was a notorious playboy of the Fu family, a bastard, at the Foundation Establishment stage, and with a reputation for being unremarkable. Now, Qin Yan should be a rising star in the Yunze Immortal Realm, someone like him who should be dismissive. Yet, not only did Qin Yan not look down on him, but when he asked him questions, there was no trace of doubt in his words, as if he believed everything he said.
Fu Changling didn't understand Qin Yan's attitude and guessed that this might be the extraordinary personal cultivation of a promising young man.
He didn't think about it anymore. Anyway, he knew almost nothing about Qin Yan's life before he became a demon cultivator. In his previous life, he only started to contact this person after Qin Yan became a demon cultivator, and got to know him as an enemy. So no matter what Qin Yan did now, he was not surprised.
He glanced at Shangguan Yuan, showing no uncooperative attitude, and simply wrote three words: "Wu Shi Luo."
Wushila is a type of evil spirit. Having died unjustly in life, their remains were denied proper burial. After death, due to a chance encounter with the heavens and earth, they can easily become such a being. Eliminating Wushila is both simple and difficult. The simplicity lies in Wushila's demands; if these demands are met, Wushila will liberate himself. The difficulty, however, lies in his demands: slay all enemies and rest in peace.
The second point is easy to deal with, but the first point depends on who his enemy is.
If Wushiluo's demands are not met, he will continue to eat people, absorbing their spiritual energy, and finally catalyze his own physical form to return for revenge. When he returns, he will kill all living things within his domain.
Now, Wushiluo, who dared to seek revenge when two Jindans were in charge, had obviously taken shape after absorbing Shangguan Yuemin. He was extremely dangerous. If only Yue Mingsi was in charge, he really couldn't protect the Shangguan family. Fortunately, Qin Yan was still there, so the chances of victory were much greater.
Thinking of this, Fu Changling's heart suddenly relaxed a little -
So, was it Qin Yan who wiped out the Shangguan family? If not, why were there traces of the Pillow Snow Sword at the scene? When did Qin Yan take refuge in the Prison of Destruction?
Fu Changling opened and closed his small fan. Qin Yan looked at Shangguan Yuemin, who was suppressed by Fu Changling's spell, and continued, "Is this her true form?"
Fu Changling nodded and pointed outside: "If the two merge into one, it will be very dangerous."
He thought for a moment, looked at the sky, and then wrote in the air: "At midnight, the yin energy is at its strongest and hard to resist."
"What should we do then?"
Yun Yu was a little anxious: "That Wushi Luo outside doesn't look easy to deal with."
When Yun Yu asked this, everyone was a little nervous. Everyone looked at Fu Changling. Unknowingly, Fu Changling had become the backbone of this place. Fu Changling leaned to the side and leaned against a pillar beside him, crossed his arms over his chest, and raised his chin towards Qin Yan and Yue Mingsi.
The meaning was very clear. They were the only two people present who were above the Golden Core stage, and the others were at most at the Foundation Establishment stage. They were almost useless in front of such a ferocious creature, and they could only rely on the two of them for protection.
It doesn't matter if Qin Yan and Yue Mingsi escape to protect themselves. If they really fight, it will probably be a bloody battle. Whether the two Jindan cultivators are willing to help the Shangguan family depends on their conscience.
"Master Yue..." Thinking of this, Shangguan Yuan immediately looked at Yue Mingsi and pleaded, "Look..."
"Master Shangguan Manor," Yue Mingsi clearly knew what Shangguan Yuan was going to say. The puppet on his shoulder immediately spoke with a hint of regret, "This Wushi Luo is too dangerous. My cultivation is low, and I'm afraid it would be useless to keep him. It would be better for me to leave first and go to the Fu family to invite Senior over."
"How can this be possible?!"
Shangguan Yuan immediately saw that Yue Mingsi wanted to run away and shouted, "You left and left us here. Can't you see how dangerous that thing outside is? When you come back, will we still have bones left?"
"Aren't there still Fellow Daoist Qin and the eldest young master?"
Yue Mingsi looked at Qin Yan. The puppet swung its wooden arms in a realistic manner and said in a theatrical voice, "I never thought that the eldest young master had such abilities. It seems he has been keeping it to himself for a long time. Since the eldest young master and Fellow Daoist Qin are so young and promising, I hope you can hold on for a while. One night at most. I will be back soon."
"Yue Mingsi!" Shangguan Yuan saw that Yue Mingsi was determined to leave. He stepped forward, grabbed Yue Mingsi's sleeve, and said angrily, "If you insist on leaving, don't blame me for what we agreed to do!"
Hearing this, Yue Mingsi curled the corners of his mouth.
There was a hint of coldness in his eyes, and the puppet said sarcastically: "Are you threatening me?"
Shangguan Yuan's face froze. Just as he was about to open his mouth to explain and try to restore order, Yue Mingsi's figure vanished into thin air. His laughter could be heard from above, and the puppet's sharp voice shouted, "You'll have to survive to come back!"
"Yue Mingsi!"
Shangguan Yuan hurriedly chased after him, shouting angrily, "Come back here!"
However, Yue Mingsi's figure had completely disappeared in the black fog. Shangguan Yuan wanted to chase him again, but when he saw the black fog peeking out of Qin Yan's barrier, he stopped abruptly.
He gritted his teeth, turned around, walked towards Qin Yan who was standing beside him, and immediately knelt down and said, "Master Qin, I have long heard of the benevolence and righteousness of Hongmeng Tiangong. Now, nearly 400 people in the Shangguan family depend on Master Qin. If Master Qin is willing to help the Shangguan family today, the Shangguan family will repay you in the future. The children of this family will serve as slaves and servants, and spiritual stones and treasures will be offered to you every year. Please save me!"
"Master!"
As they spoke, everyone knelt down, anxiously and panickedly saying, "Master, save us!"
Among this group of people, only Madam Shangguan was still standing. She looked at the barrier with tears in her eyes. Outside the barrier, the black air became thicker and thicker, as if it gradually took shape. It was like a giant snake, circling around the outside of Shangguan Villa. The shapes of human faces were vaguely revealed in the black mist, as if the giant snake had grown a pair of eyes, which made people terrified.
Fu Changling glanced at Madam Shangguan, holding the Qingbone fan to his lips, as if thinking about something.
Qin Yan looked at the people kneeling on the ground, pursed his lips, as if he was making a difficult decision. Yun Yu looked at Qin Yan nervously, waiting for his order to leave or stay, but now he could no longer wait.
Qin Yan was silent for too long, and Fu Changling couldn't help but look at him.
He was not surprised by Qin Yan's hesitation. Even if Qin Yan had not wiped out the entire Shangguan family today, he was still a demon cultivator after all. It was too ridiculous to talk about morality with a demon cultivator.
Yue Mingsi has already run away. If Qin Yan really stays, he must have other plans.
Fu Changling pondered this in his mind while his fingers traced a teleportation formation beneath his sleeve. Everyone around him was whispering, and he could faintly hear the sound of a young man crying. He looked over, his gaze casually glancing at Shangguan Mingyan, and saw two boys surrounding him. They seemed to be his brothers, clinging tightly to Shangguan Mingyan's sleeves. Shangguan Mingyan lowered his head to comfort them.
Fu Changling paused and couldn't help but be stunned.
Everyone has compassion. At first, he was angry that the Shangguan family was determined to kill him, but now he thinks that although Shangguan Yuan and Yue Mingsi joined forces to harm him, the other members of the Shangguan family were innocent.
Fu Changling turned his head and suddenly became curious about Qin Yan's decision.
Qin Yan thought for a while, then looked at Fu Changling. Seeing Fu Changling looking at him, he looked at Fu Changling's eyes, as if asking a question.
Fu Changling panicked and quickly turned his head away. Qin Yan thought for a moment, then seemed to have made a decision. He turned to Yun Yu and said, "Take out the flying boat. I have a sword technique from our master. You escort Master Fu and the rest of the Shangguan family out first."
Qin Yan's master is Jiang Yebai, the Palace Master of Hongmeng Heavenly Palace, who is known as the best swordsman in the world. Now he is one of the four cultivators who have passed the tribulation. With one of his sword techniques, it is no problem for him to escort a flying boat to escape.
Fu Changling didn't understand why Qin Yan was so determined to protect him and send him out, but his teleportation array would soon be completed, and Qin Yan's intentions were unclear. Besides, he wanted to save as many people as possible, so he shook his head.
"Send ordinary people first."
He raised his hand and wrote a line of words. Yun Yu read it beside him and said hurriedly, "Mr. Fu is right. Let's send the ordinary people away first. He is very powerful and does not need protection!"
Fu Changling: “…”
No, he needs it, but he doesn't want Qin Yan's protection.
Just as he was thinking, he saw Qin Yan looking over. He glanced at him lightly and said, "Send the ordinary people away first. I will protect Master Fu."
Fu Changling kept smiling, but he didn't know whose family to greet.
The author has something to say:
Yun Yu: No need to explain, I understand, Master Fu. You are a genius of your time, oppressed by your stepmother, forced to hide your talents to survive! You have been hiding your talents, all for the sake of survival! One day, you will seek revenge, rise to prominence, and become a legend in Yunze!
Fu Changling: ...You can brag better than me.
then--
Qin Yan: How do you know so much when you are just building your foundation?
Fu Changling: Do you believe me when I say I'm doing this to survive? Actually, I'm a genius who's been oppressed by my stepmother...
Qin Yan: ...You are indeed a genius.
In fact, it was quite easy in the early stages.
