Fu Chen's body surged with evil energy. He drew his sword and stabbed it into Liu Zhuang's back. "Since you want to die, then I will grant your wish."
Liu Zhuang turned back to look at him in disbelief, "You, you really want to kill me?"
"Otherwise, what's the point of keeping something useless?" Just as Fu Chen drew his sword to stab again, Liu Zhuang ran out.
Fu Chen's lips curled up into a wicked smile. "Heh, you really have some ideas to think of escaping from me."
He walked away leisurely, while Liu Zhuang fled tragically.
As he ran, Liu Zhuang pulled out a bottle of pills and poured them into his mouth, hoping to recover quickly so he could escape immediately.
Seeing this, Fu Chen stopped in his tracks, raised the sword in his hand and swung it at him, piercing directly into his dantian from his lower back.
Liu Zhuang immediately collapsed to the ground, wailing, "Please spare me! I don't want the spirit stones anymore! I will definitely complete the task you assigned me!"
Fu Chen sneered, "Too late. You only realize your mistake after you're already ruined. What's the use now?" With that, he ended his life with a single sword stroke.
Cheng Lin strolled over leisurely, looked at the corpse on the ground and said unhappily, "Why did you even rupture your dantian? It would have been so much better to keep it for cultivation."
"Ah, I forgot." He genuinely hadn't realized that he was already a heretical cultivator.
"If you need it, I'll go and catch a few for you."
“Okay, we need to catch some with higher cultivation levels, otherwise we’ll have to catch several, which will make us too big of a target.” Cheng Lin smoothed her temples and said, “Once our cultivation levels are up, we can go and kill Yu Chuan ourselves to avenge our daughter.”
Fu Chen, however, did not care. To him, Fu Zhen was already dead, so what did it matter whether he took revenge or not? Could she come back to life?
Moreover, if it weren't for her, they wouldn't have been kicked out of the Fu family and ended up in this situation.
He's less about avenging his daughter and more about getting revenge for himself.
"By the way, where's Afu? I haven't seen her for several days." Fu Chen frowned and looked at Cheng Lin.
Cheng Lin sneered, "She must have run away. We've become the target of everyone's anger now, how could she possibly stay with us?"
She glanced at him coldly and said, "What, you're worried about her?"
Fu Chen glanced at her helplessly, "How could that be? You know how I feel about you." The reason he didn't abandon Cheng Lin and sever ties was because he couldn't let her go.
"The reason I asked her is that she taught us too few cultivation methods. If we want to reach new heights, we can only ask her for better cultivation techniques."
He had tasted the sweetness of unorthodox cultivation, so he was no longer satisfied with that.
Cheng Lin stepped forward and hugged him. "I'm sorry, Brother Chen, I didn't mean it. I've just been too anxious lately."
"It's alright, I know you're upset because you're like this." Fu Chen patted her reassuringly.
Cheng Lin smiled and said, "Then let's send a telepathic message to Afu."
"But what if she's unwilling to give us new cultivation methods?"
Fu Chen's eyes sharpened. "Then don't blame us for being impolite."
"You go back first, I'll go and grab a few people for you to cultivate with."
Cheng Lin thought for a moment and said, "Let's go together and catch those lone disciples who are out training in the mountains. Generally, the disciples who come out to train are not very powerful, so we won't be too big of a target."
"Okay." Fu Chen was so fond of Cheng Lin for two reasons: first, she was beautiful, and second, she was smart.
After completing her mission, Li Fu arrived at the Crimson Mist Mountain Range and arranged to meet Shu Jianyue. She didn't dare to go directly to the Supreme Temple, fearing it might cause unnecessary trouble.
Especially after learning the couple's purpose, they dared not approach the Supreme Temple.
Shu Jianyue came with Fan Yingtan and Yun Guizong. Li Fu would only be looking for her now if she had completed her mission.
Seeing that she had brought Fan Yingtan along, Li Fu couldn't help but smile, "Your Excellency, the mission is complete."
“Fu Chen and his wife have become evil cultivators. I have also spread the news about them. They have moved away from their original residence and now live in the ruined city.”
Shu Jianyue nodded, "I will have him send your daughter to the Eight Desolations, but that's all I will do. I won't interfere in anything else."
Li Fu nodded, "Okay, the rest is up to her." As she spoke, she looked at Fan Yingtan, only to see her looking at her with dissatisfaction.
Li Fu frowned and asked, "Tan'er, what's wrong?"
"Mother, I don't want to go to the Eight Desolations. I want to stay in the Four Seas." Although Fan Yingtan didn't know the details of what had happened, she had heard Li Fu say that the mission was completed.
Or are they deliberately leading people to become heretical practitioners? Isn't this a great negotiating condition?
Li Fu frowned deeply. "Do you have a choice?"
"Tan'er, obediently follow this Venerable One down. Without your parents by your side, you must do everything within your capabilities."
"This is all the help your mother can give you. What happens next is up to you."
Fan Yingtan glanced at Shu Jianyue. Couldn't she bargain a little since she had leverage?
Seeing this, Li Fu sighed and said, "Tan'er, if you want to stand high, you have to have the strength to stand that high, otherwise you won't even know how you died."
"It's already an extraordinary favor from the Venerable One that you can go to the Eight Desolations; otherwise, you would have to return to the Ten Domains."
Fan Yingtan then looked at Shu Jianyue.
Shu Jianyue didn't even look at her, but instead looked at Yun Guizong and said, "As I said before, send her to the Eight Desolations. You go to the Ten Domains again and check on Yun Guiwang and the others."
Yun Guizong bowed and replied, "Yes, Palace Master."
Shu Jianyue looked at Li Fu and said, "Let's go."
"Venerable One, will it cause unnecessary trouble if I go in with you like this?" Li Fu didn't expect her to take her in like this; she thought she would directly take her into that place.
"It's alright, no one can cause trouble for the Supreme Temple now." After saying that, Shu Jianyue walked towards the Supreme Temple.
Seeing that they had left, Fan Yingtan couldn't help but look at Yun Guizong.
Yun Guizong said calmly, "Let's go, I have other matters to attend to." After saying that, he led her to the newly set-up teleportation array in the Supreme God Temple.
After Shu Jianyue had Chong Jiu put Li Fu away, she secretly sent messages to several close allies, asking them to pay more attention to the disciples who went out for training.
Then they revealed that Fu Chen and his wife had been capturing disciples for training in the mountains.
Within a day, all the self-proclaimed righteous sects began to plan their evil-hunting operations.
Director Shu Jianyue sat on her own hilltop watching the show, showing no intention of participating whatsoever, occasionally even fanning herself in the background.
However, the Supreme Temple still sent people, after all, they couldn't appear too gregarious.
So Jiang Jingyi was asked to bring her disciples to participate.
