Come to think of it, the first wave of monsters were simple and low-level, and were originally intended for cultivators in the Foundation Establishment Stage to practice.
All three of them have the combat power of Golden Core. This is like using a sledgehammer to crack a nut, a complete waste.
The person in charge of observing the battlefield in the City Lord's Mansion also discovered the peculiarity of these three people, and directly called them back, arranging for them to come back in the second batch.
Just like that, the three of them returned to Luoyun City less than a day after arriving at the battlefield.
Since most of the cultivators have gone to the Hengduan Mountains, Luoyun City is now much quieter than before.
The three of them walked to the door of Yu Shu's house. Qin Mian said to Ran Changle and Yu Shu, "According to the previous schedule, we may not set off until two months later. During this time, I will go into seclusion and break through the Golden Core."
"I wish Brother Qin success in advance." Ran Changle said.
"I'd like to borrow your kind words, Junior Sister."
After saying this, Qin Mian returned to the Chu family.
As soon as Ran Changle returned home, he couldn't wait to take out the kitchen utensils and prepare a crab feast.
But when she took out the crab, she was dumbfounded.
She didn't think too much when she killed the crabs. She basically killed them one by one with one punch, and either killed them or smashed them to pieces. Some of them were killed with talismans. They were either roasted half-cooked by the fire talismans or pierced to pieces by the golden sword talismans.
After careful selection, she picked out only a dozen or so that were complete and edible.
Yu Shu looked at Ran Changle's pouting face and his heart softened. With a wave of his hand, hundreds of frozen crabs flew out of his storage ring. When they landed in front of Ran Changle, the ice on the crabs had melted.
After a while, the crab actually started to move and was still alive!
Ran Changle's eyes lit up instantly. So many intact crabs!
As she processed the crabs, she said happily, "Yu Shu, your magic is really useful. The crabs preserved in this way will stay fresh for a long time."
"If you like it, I'll catch more for you next time."
Seeing Ran Changle happy, he was also happy.
In the end, hundreds of crabs basically all went into Ran Changle's stomach, and Yu Shu only ate a few symbolically.
Moreover, Ran Changle discovered that eating the meat of monsters did not increase Yu Shu's spiritual power.
I don’t know if it’s because Yu Shu is not from the Tianquan Realm, or if it’s the same for other people, but only she can increase her spiritual power by eating monster meat.
A month later, a spiritual power fluctuation suddenly came from next door.
Ran Changle looked up and saw a huge vortex of spiritual power forming in the yard where Qin Mian lived. It lasted for about a quarter of an hour before the spiritual power subsided.
Ran Changle guessed that Qin Mian must have broken through to the golden elixir stage.
After Qin Mian broke through, he stabilized for a few days before coming to find Ran Changle. As soon as he arrived, he brought explosive news.
"Chang Le, I discovered the big secret of the Chu family."
Hearing the word "secret", Yu Shu became alert and raised his hand to set up a barrier in the room.
Ran Changle put anti-peeping talismans around the barrier.
Qin Mian also realized something belatedly and took out the formation plate to block the spiritual detection.
After doing all this, Qin Mian said seriously: "The head of the Chu family is not in the middle stage of the Golden Core as the outside world says, but in the early stage of the Nascent Soul. Moreover, the Chu family also has a cultivator in the late stage of the Nascent Soul."
Ran Changle had anticipated that the Chu family was hiding their strength. Instead, she worried that Qin Mian would be silenced by the Chu family. She asked repeatedly, "How did you discover the Chu family's secret? Did they discover you?"
Qin Mian patted his chest and assured, "Don't worry, they didn't notice. My father gave me a secret treasure. When I break through the Golden Core stage, I can use the power of heaven and earth to experience the methods of Yuanying and Huashen, reducing the bottleneck of my future practice. Unfortunately, it only lasts for three breaths."
After hearing this, Ran Changle wanted to beat Qin Mian up. You, a second-generation cultivator, don’t know the suffering of others.
Experiencing the methods of Nascent Soul and Transformation of the Spirit in advance will save me a lot of time for future practice.
Many people in the late Jindan stage are stuck at a bottleneck throughout their lives and cannot break through to the Yuanying stage. Qin Mian has these three breaths of time, which will at least allow him to break through to the Yuanying stage without a bottleneck. This is what many people dream of, but he actually thinks the time is too short.
Although he thought about it, Ran Changle would not really beat him up. Instead, he said solemnly: "The Chu family and an unknown force are planning to take over the City Lord's Mansion during the beast tide. They may take action soon."
Upon hearing this, Qin Mian was surprised and said, "The city lord is a Divine Transformation cultivator, and the city lord's mansion also has two deputy city lords in the late Nascent Soul stage and two guard captains in the middle Nascent Soul stage. Even if the Chu family has a late Nascent Soul cultivator, it's not enough. Is the Chu family seeking death?"
At this time, Yu Shu's communication jade slip lit up. After reading it, he said, "The Chu family also has a Divine Transformation cultivator."
Qin Mian exclaimed: "How is it possible? Where did you get your information from? Is it reliable?"
"It's reliable. Uncle Jiu is in the middle stage of the Spiritual Transformation Realm. When he took me away, he sensed that there was a Spiritual Transformation cultivator in the Chu family, who must have just broken through not long ago." Yu Shu replied.
Ran Changle lowered his head and pondered for a while, then said solemnly, "Nothing is impossible. The Chu family's strength is definitely more than this. There is another force, and their strength should not be underestimated."
Qin Mian walked around the room a few times and suddenly said, "If they really have this strength, they may be able to replace the City Lord's Mansion. Thirty years ago, the City Lord was seriously injured in a battle with a monster and has been in seclusion ever since. I heard that he still hasn't recovered."
"Whether the Chu family wants to replace the City Lord's Mansion or the City Lord's Mansion wants to maintain its position, they will eventually have a battle, most likely in the late stages of the Beast Tide or just after it ends. By then, the City Lord's Mansion will have suffered heavy casualties, and it will be the best time."
Yu Shu analyzed.
Then he looked at Ran Changle: "When the time comes, we can just use the City Lord's Mansion to catch all the people of the Chu family in one fell swoop."
Although Qin Mian knew about Ran Changle's past and knew that the Chu family had abused her, he did not know that the family had treated her as a blood slave, nor did he know that the Chu family had wiped out her entire family.
Therefore, he disagreed with Yu Shu's opinion: "Although the people of the Chu family treated my junior sister badly in the past, there is no need to kill them all. Kill those who hurt my junior sister, and there is no need to kill the others."
"No one in the Chu family is innocent."
Yu Shu's tone was cold.
Qin Mian didn't know, but he knew that almost everyone in the Chu family had drunk the blood of Ran Changle and her clansmen.
Otherwise, how come the Chu family has so many people with excellent qualifications in the past decade or so, and the two sons of the Chu family head have top-grade single spiritual roots.
How much of Chang Le's blood did they drink, and how much suffering did Chang Le suffer in the Chu family.
Thinking of this, Yu Shu's eyes turned cold and murderous intent was released. The air around him became several degrees colder. He wished he could kill all the people in the Chu family immediately.
Qin Mian didn't know why Yu Shu's expression suddenly changed, he only knew that he was in danger now, so he took a few steps back and stayed away from him.
