Chapter 71 Fleeing to Fengzhou Prefecture (Please read on, please vote!)
Liu Jinxian's willingness to kill a Foundation Establishment cultivator already surpasses that of most low-level Qi Refining cultivators; her courage, trump cards, and methods are all extraordinary.
After severely injuring Deacon Xu, he still dared to pursue and kill him, his fierceness far exceeding expectations.
Of course, Wang Yu was unaware of what had happened in that short time; he only sensed the violent commotion at Xuan Gu Mountain and ran even faster.
With the Night Concealment Spell providing cover, and given his current Qi Refining Level 7 cultivation, he could sustain himself for four hours without interruption. If necessary, he could also take top-grade Spirit Recovery Pills to replenish his depleted spiritual energy.
Therefore, once he started running, he never thought of stopping.
He has more than he can eat, as his alchemy skills and formulas are both perfected, and he has basically mastered the underlying principles and techniques.
Due to the individual differences of medicinal materials, it is difficult to achieve a perfect nine pills in the final form of a top-grade pill, but it is like candy beans, which he can eat as he pleases.
It can also avoid the refining efficiency problem caused by the waste spiritual root.
On the way to Fengzhou Prefecture, Wang Yu was on his way to escape. Meanwhile, Xu, the steward, was in a terrible daze. He managed to get rid of the Green Serpent Poison Gu by sacrificing an arm.
However, the subsequent attack on his Core Formation stage left him completely poisoned with a secondary level of Azure Serpent Toxin. This toxin was so potent that it eroded his bones and spirit, making it difficult for his injuries to heal and even suppressing his liquid true essence.
His Qi Sea was empty, with only two or three drops of true essence remaining. No matter how frantically he circulated his cultivation technique, he could not draw any spiritual energy from the outside world, as if the boundless water had lost its source.
The only saving grace was that he could still get help from the pills, taking a lot of second-tier spiritual pills that he had saved for his own use, which temporarily suppressed the further deterioration of his injuries.
His skin and flesh were still rotten and green, oozing yellow pus, giving him the appearance of someone who was about to die, constantly reminding him that he had to find a place to heal his wounds in seclusion as soon as possible.
Otherwise, death is certain!
After being attacked by Liu Jinxian, his mentality completely collapsed, and he forgot all about his daughter's revenge. Escaping was the most important thing right now.
Who knows if the girl chasing him has another trump card up her sleeve? He dared not gamble!
After some thought, Deacon Xu quickly regained his composure.
The blame for this whole affair initially falls on the Zhu family, grandfather and grandson, who ran the Xu family's alchemy shop. These two offended a true disciple of the [Evil God Peak] and, under the guidance of others, attacked him, ultimately embezzling over 100,000 spirit stones from the shop.
Firstly, because he came from humble beginnings, had no powerful backers, and was a second-tier alchemist with considerable wealth, he was an excellent fat sheep to be slaughtered.
Secondly, the fact that the Zhu family grandfather and grandson wanted to use spirit stones to atone for their sins and chose the Xu family's alchemy shop was actually hinted at by a disciple under the true lineage of the Evil God Peak.
The whole thing was a trap from the beginning.
As a result, Wang Yu suddenly appeared halfway through, not only exposing the scheme of the true disciple of Evil God Peak, but also attracting a new hungry wolf!
The deacon of the Enforcement Hall, Zhuo, comes from a prominent family, a first-class member of the Reverse Spirit Blood Sect. His family has a Nascent Soul ancestor in charge, while Evil God Peak has long been relegated to the bottom. It is truly beneath a dignified peak's true disciple to covet his more than 100,000 spirit stones.
But no matter the outcome, it's still Xu who got ripped off.
He was subsequently imprisoned in the dungeon and had to find a way to feed Steward Zhuo and the true disciple of Evil God Peak. He practically sold everything he owned and even incurred a lot of debt before he was barely released.
After years of accumulating resources, all that's left are a few treasured elixirs and a handful of magical artifacts; even the second-tier talismans have been completely depleted.
After being released, he learned of his daughter's death, still bearing the name Wang Yu, and he went completely insane!
I went through it from beginning to end.
Deacon Xu's eyes regained their clarity. He turned his head to look at the relentlessly pursuing figure behind him and muttered to himself:
"Once the arrow is released, there's no turning back. Although I was in the wrong first, my vindictive nature almost sealed my fate..."
An apology? Judging by this attitude, it's no wonder it won't work!
Compensation? His entire fortune had been devoured by those two hyenas; he was left with nothing but a wretched life and couldn't afford to pay any compensation.
With his remaining left hand, he formed a sword-like finger and pressed several acupoints on his body to temporarily stabilize his condition using a secret technique attached to his cultivation method. He then swallowed several elixirs to restore his true energy.
Without warning, the speed slowed down a bit.
Maintaining a distance that Liu Jinxian can't catch but can see, slowing down when she gets too far away and speeding up when she gets too close, like live bait to lure her deeper and deeper.
Delaying time, waiting for the empty Qi Sea to gradually recover.
He has already lost everything, so what does he have to fear from that damned Core Formation background? The few Xu clan members who remained in the sect are nothing but bloodsuckers clinging to him.
He lost his daughter, his family fortune, and was burdened with a mountain of debt.
He's capable of anything!
Including—killing Liu Jinxian!!
After finding its direction, it flew headlong towards the location of Fengzhou Prefecture.
Liu Jinxian, who was closely following behind, naturally noticed the other party's strange behavior. She was initially a little apprehensive, worried that the other party might be deliberately trying to lure her in.
Sensing the unusual direction, he naturally assumed the other party was afraid: "You think I wouldn't dare kill you in front of everyone just because you want to go to the prefectural city?!—You're asking for death!"
A moment later, the flying artifact he was piloting increased its speed even further.
…………
…………
Those that run on the ground are naturally not as fast as those that fly in the sky, let alone a Foundation Establishment cultivator, a second-generation cultivator who relies on the convenience of magical artifacts.
Relying solely on his two legs, Wang Yu, despite setting off early, was quickly overtaken. Sensing the unusual sight on the horizon, he could only find his way to the base of a giant rock.
Using shadows and the Night Concealment Spell to hide himself completely, he looked at the two streaks of light flying across the sky with some surprise.
One gray, one green, chasing each other!
It was like a competition.
But the glaringly obvious wounded appearance stirred something in Wang Yu's heart. He was confident in the unparalleled strength of his Divine Corpse Arm, coupled with various perfected techniques, making him invincible in the Qi Refining stage.
Having witnessed the battle between Deacon Xu and the Bone Lion King, he couldn't help but harbor murderous intent.
The only concern is his Foundation Establishment cultivation level.
Although he didn't know why Liu Jinxian had done this to him, it was indeed an opportunity to settle the score. The fact that the other party had come all the way from afar to find him showed how important she was!
If he misses this opportunity, he will have to hide his true identity for many years before he has the ability to solve the problem after breaking through to the Foundation Establishment stage.
"Opportunity knocks but once."
With Liu Jinxian in front of him anyway, what did he have to fear? If he could really solve this big problem, he wouldn't need to spend his days in the unfamiliar Fengzhou Prefecture.
The right thing to do is to finish the Xuan Gu Mountain mission safely and return to the Ni Ling Blood Sect.
"Let's do it!"
Having made up his mind, Wang Yu hurriedly chased after her. He felt that Liu Jinxian, being a Core Formation cultivator, must possess some trump card that transcended her cultivation level.
He would be content as long as he could kill Deacon Xu, even without any spoils of war.
However.
Two hours later.
Wang Yu was completely separated from the fleeing group and could only follow the lingering scent of Liu Jinxian as he moved forward.
