Chapter 124: Overbearing Boss
The black spaceship lost its sails to control the strong wind and also lost its operator. Its huge hull swayed and turned in the air for a few circles before diving into the edge of Pegasus.
The spaceship was hundreds of feet above the ground. When it fell from such a height, the huge hull immediately fell apart, raising countless smoke and dust.
Just now, Yun Taihao launched a thunderous attack, and its unparalleled power immediately shocked all the cultivators and calmed their manic hearts.
The black spaceship landed with a loud bang, and the wandering cultivators regained their sanity. They no longer had the courage to kill and rob, and they all fled in all directions in a hurry.
The Pegasus, which was in chaos and filled with the sound of killing, soon became deserted, with only the burning houses and buildings still burning quietly.
Yun Taihao in the sky had no intention of paying attention to these wandering cultivators. His eyes had already been fixed on the four foundation-building cultivators from the Seven Evils Sect.
He endured for so long before taking action just to teach the Seven Evils Sect a profound lesson.
Several foundation-building monks were having a great time killing and setting fire in Pegasus, and now they want to run away when the situation is not good? How can that be a good thing! Yun Taihao did not rush to chase and kill several foundation-building monks, he needed time to adjust his mana. Just now, he used all his strength to break the formation, so that he could defeat the enemy with one blow.
Just as Yun Taihao was adjusting his state, Gao Xian also cautiously withdrew his gaze from observing Yun Taihao.
The situation was chaotic before, and many cultivators were paying attention to Yun Taihao through their spiritual sense, so Gao Xian could observe Yun Taihao with confidence.
Now that several foundation-building monks were either dead or running away, it would be too dangerous for him to continue staring at Yun Taihao with wide eyes.
The Flower-Appraising Mirror is very magical, but it is better to be careful when facing a Golden Elixir Master.
Gao Xianzhen was shocked to see Yun Taihao display his supernatural power.
The power of the foundation-building master had already astonished him. But in front of the Jindan master, the foundation-building master was so fragile that he could not withstand a single blow.
Judging from this battle, there is an essential gap between the foundation-building cultivators and the golden elixir masters in terms of magic power, consciousness, body and other aspects.
This gap even exceeds the gap between foundation-building cultivators and Qi-cultivating cultivators.
The power of Jindan Zhenren is too strong. Gao Xian can't even figure out how to build a foundation. It is useless to watch any more, and he may expose himself instead.
Gao Xian collected the Shadowless Robe. He and Qiniang returned to the cave and saw that Zhou Ye, Zhou Yuling and Wan Zhen all had serious expressions. Wan Yingying's little face was also full of anxiety, and she held Zhou Yuling's hand tightly.
Yun Taihao's attack was so powerful that it frightened the four people.
They didn't know what was going on and they didn't dare move, so naturally they were all very nervous.
Gao Xian smiled at everyone and said, "Good news, Sect Master Yun has arrived and has wiped out the Seven Evil Sect cultivators."
Everyone was a little bit unbelievable when they heard this, especially Zhou Ye, whose old face wrinkled into a ball with a look of surprise, "Sect Master Yun?"
There was a floating cloud flag covering the cave entrance, which also blocked all kinds of sounds. Everyone heard what Yun Taihao said before, but they didn't hear clearly what he said.
Zhou Ye had been practicing in the sect for decades, but he had never seen Yun Taihao. He was a little skeptical about Gao Xian's words.
"Don't worry, I won't be wrong. Only Sect Master Yun has such extraordinary power."
Gao Xian was very sure of this. He said, "Pegasus is still a bit chaotic right now. Let's wait until dawn to go back. By then, the situation should be settled."
Zhou Ye and others thought this was a good idea and it would not be too late to make a decision after seeing the situation at dawn.
Zhou Yuling felt a little unhappy when she saw Gao Xian and Zhu Qinnan sitting next to each other.
She also knew that Zhu Qinnan and Gao Xian had a special relationship.
But she had never met Zhu Qiniang, so she didn't feel anything. Today, she and Zhu Qiniang were in the same room, and Gao Xian was there, so the atmosphere was quite subtle.
Zhou Yuling was jealous, but she knew her limits and knew that this was not an appropriate occasion or time.
If she really lost her temper, it would make her look immature. Even Gao Xian would probably feel disgusted.
Thinking of this, Zhou Yuling smiled and took Wan Yingying to sit next to Gao Xian, "Brother Xian, what happened just now? Tell us..."
Gao Xian was also a little embarrassed. He had always been able to straddle two boats very steadily. It wasn't because he was very capable, but because the two women never met each other, thus saving countless troubles.
Now that the crisis of Pegasus has been resolved, he has completely relaxed and feels a little overwhelmed facing the two women.
Fortunately, Zhu Qinnan has a deep personality and has complicated feelings towards Gao Xian. When she saw Zhou Yuling getting intimate with Gao Xian, she was able to hold back.
At least her expression was calm and she showed no emotional changes.
However, Gao Xian could feel that Qinnan's muscles were slightly tense, and she was not as calm and composed as she appeared to be.
Gao Xian secretly felt lucky that Qi Niang was able to control herself, otherwise if the two women started fighting, he would not know what to do! Zhou Yuling was also quite sensible, she just sat next to him and did not make any moves, probably because she was concerned about Zhou Ye and Wan Zhen.
He laughed dryly and said, "The battle just now was very exciting, it's a pity that you didn't see it.
"Yun Taihao used only one sword to destroy the Seven Evils Sect's spaceship, and everyone on the ship was killed by him..."
Fortunately, the battle was exciting enough, and Gao Xian mentioned it casually, which immediately aroused the keen interest of Zhou Yuling and others.
Everyone's attention quickly shifted to Yun Taihao. They were all Qigong practitioners, and even the oldest one, Zhou Ye, had never seen a Jindan Zhenren.
Everyone knows that Jindan Zhenren is powerful, but as to how powerful he is, no one actually knows.
Everyone was amazed when they heard Gao Xian's detailed explanation of the battle.
Everyone chatted one after another for most of the night.
Wan Yingying was listening with great interest at first, but soon she couldn't bear it anymore and fell asleep on Zhou Yuling's lap.
Everyone was a little tired, and it was not convenient to rest in the cave, so they all meditated and regulated their breathing.
When it was bright outside, everyone quickly ate some dry food and returned to Pegasus together.
The riot last night burned most of Pegasus into ruins.
As they walked along the road, they saw burnt-out buildings and miserable corpses everywhere.
Especially in the central area of Pegasus, the houses on that street were almost all destroyed.
Including the Zhou family's Lingfu Hall, most of it was burned down.
Seeing this scene, Zhou Ye's face turned a little ugly. Zhou Yuling was even more tearful. She had lived here for several years and had a lot of feelings for this place.
Gao Xian was lucky. Although the doors and windows of his house were damaged and the room was in a mess, it was generally still intact.
The same was true at Wan Zhen's home. Although the dead body was still lying in the yard, the house was intact.
At noon, Li Shuanglin returned to Pegasus on the Qingmu flying ship.
A large number of Lianyun Sect practitioners also came with him.
Under the leadership of Li Shuanglin, Lianyun Sect quickly regained control of Pegasus.
The invasion of the Seven Evils caused great damage to Pegasus, and the resulting riots by the independent cultivators almost turned Pegasus into ruins.
According to incomplete statistics afterwards, at least six to seven thousand cultivators died in the riots.
Fortunately, it was early September and the weather was not too cold, so the homeless cultivators did not freeze to death.
Li Shuanglin quickly organized people to rebuild Pegasus. With tens of thousands of independent cultivators as laborers, the reconstruction speed was very fast.
Because the Lingfu Hall was burned down, Zhou Ye and Zhou Yuling have been living in Gao Xian's house during this period.
Being with Zhou Yuling and Zhu Qinnan is a huge torture for Gao Xian.
Both women are very important to him, so he shouldn't be too partial to either one, lest he hurt anyone's feelings.
It is really difficult to keep these two boats stable.
Fortunately, Zhu Qinnan is more generous and doesn't pester Gao Xian every day like Zhou Yuling does.
Zhou Ye was there again, so Zhou Yuling didn't dare to act too recklessly. The few of them were able to live in peace.
After this catastrophe, Zhou Ye was extremely disappointed with Lianyun Sect. He often said, "They are just the sect's dogs. No one will even look at them when they die!"
In this chaos, only Zhou Ye and Huang Ying escaped the disaster because they were informed by Gao Xian in advance. The other disciples of Lianyun Sect suffered heavy casualties.
Yun Taihao's timely appearance proved that the Lianyun Sect was well prepared for the actions of the Qisha Sect.
Facts have proved that the top leaders of Lianyun Sect only used Zhou Ye and others as bait to lure the Qisha Sect to take action first.
The plan was very successful, and Yun Taihao killed five of the other party's foundation-building monks in one fell swoop.
For a sect like the Seven Evils Sect, the loss of five great foundation-building monks at once is a serious blow to its vitality.
Zhou Ye and Huang Ying, the two people who served as bait, were of course full of resentment about this.
However, no matter how much resentment they have, they dare not leave Lianyun Sect. They still have to continue to live on in the days ahead.
Please...collect 6...9...books...!
Gao Xian understood the resentment of these two people and had a comprehensive understanding of the cruelty of the sect. However, he was a little impatient to listen to Lao Zhou and Huang Ying complaining about these things.
The good thing is that after this incident, Zhou Ye and Huang Ying both trusted and were closer to him.
Forget about Huang Ying, but Zhou Ye is my cheap father-in-law. It's always a good thing to have a good relationship with him.
By October, the central area was finally rebuilt. Zhou Ye took Zhou Yuling back to Lingfu Hall.
Da Niu also came back, and the Gao family compound returned to peace.
Gao Xian now had time to count the gains from this chaos with Qiniang.
He first killed Yang Qiying and his wife, and the Red Snake, and later killed several groups of Red Snake Gang cultivators. Together with the several cultivators he killed in Wan Zhen's house, he killed a total of more than 30 cultivators this time.
Forget about the other cultivators, the key is that Yang Qiying and his wife, and Chi Snake, are all wealthy, with more than 3,000 spirit stones alone.
The robes and swords they wear are of extremely high value.
The robes and swords of Yang Qiying and his wife are a pair. The sword and robes of Chishe are also of very high quality. There is also a bell magic weapon that can protect the soul.
The most important thing is the pair of green boots in the Red Snake's storage bag. Gao Xian feels that they are obviously a set with the Green Lotus Crown, Green Lotus Belt, and Green Lotus Sword on his body.
Gao Xian laid out all his harvest for Zhu Qiniang to identify.
"Kanshui Sword, Kanshui Robe, Lihuo Sword, Lihuo Robe, all are top-grade first-class. The most rare thing is that the sword and robe are combined into a set, which can greatly enhance the power of the magic weapon..."
Zhu Qinnan was quite fond of these two sets of magical instruments. Magical instruments of this grade and quality were rare. The two sets of swords and robes were also of high quality. Together, they could be sold at a high price.
She picked up the red-yellow robe of the red snake and studied it carefully for a long time before saying, "It should be the Huangtang robe woven with Huangtang wood silk. It is the toughest and has super strong protection. It is difficult for ordinary magic weapons to break through it."
At this point, Qi Niang said with some relief: "Fortunately, you pierced his head with your sword, and he was unable to activate the mysterious magic shield of his robe."
Gao Xian chuckled, and all his swords were aimed at people's heads just to avoid the robes.
"The Huang Tang robe is in perfect condition, and the runes inside are intact. It can be said to be of the highest quality. It is also a protective robe, so its value should be around three thousand spirit stones."
Zhu Qiniang picked up the red snake's sword and looked at it, "This sword should be called the Fiery Sword, a first-class top grade, worth 1,500 spirit stones.
"This bell actually has the magical power to calm the mind and soothe the soul. The runes inside are so complex and wonderful. It should be a second-level magic weapon..."
Zhu Qinnan was not very sure about this. She took the red snake's golden bell and studied it over and over again for a while.
She finally said, "It should be called the Calming Spirit Bell. It is a good magical tool that can protect the soul."
Gao Xian nodded. "The Calming Bell is indeed very clever. It can react spontaneously to protect the Red Snake's soul after being attacked by my magic."
"The magic weapon that protects the soul is very rare. If it is really second-level, it can be sold for at least four or five thousand spirit stones..."
Zhu Qiniang handed the Calming Bell to Gao Xian and said seriously, "You always encounter evil spirits. Don't sell this. Keep it for self-defense."
Gao Xian took the golden bell and shook it casually, but the bell didn't ring.
This made Gao Xian a little curious. How could this thing not make a sound when shaken? He tried again, and it turned out that the bell could not be made to ring by pure external force. It should be that only the power of the soul could make the bell ring.
Such an exquisite bell also avoids the disadvantage of making noise when walking.
Gao Xian played with the Calming Bell with great interest for a while, while Zhu Qinnan concentrated on identifying various magical instruments.
This time Gao Xian obtained dozens of magical instruments, as well as various talismans, elixirs, and so on.
Although the grades are not high, identification is quite energy-consuming.
Seeing that Qiniang was working so hard, Gao Xian went over and hung the rope of the calming bell around Qiniang's neck.
Zhu Qiniang was a little surprised. She turned her head and looked at Gao Xian and said, "This magic weapon is too expensive, and I can't use it. If you don't need it, just sell it."
"A gift for you."
Seeing that Zhu Qinnan was still trying to refuse, Gao Xian imitated a domineering boss and pressed a finger on Qinnan's lips to silence her.
I have to say, this pose is quite exciting.
Qiniang's lips are plump and feel great.
"You're a tank. The stronger you are, the safer I'll be."
Gao Xian then stuffed the Huang Tang robe to Zhu Qiniang, "This is a wood-type robe, you can take it."
Zhu Qinnan looked at Gao Xian deeply. Gao Xian seemed a bit exaggerated and a little strange.
She thought for a moment and said, "If it's about Zhou Yuling, you don't have to do this."
"Ha ha……"
Gao Xian gave a dry laugh and put his arm around Qiniang's shoulders. Although he was a little shorter than her, his arms were long, so the movement was quite easy.
He explained: "We are good brothers, and it is my duty to give you a gift. It has nothing to do with Yuling."
Zhu Qiniang nodded with a complicated look: "Okay."
"Well, I still have use for the Kanshui Sword and Kanshui Robe, so I'll just sell the rest."
Gao Xian calmly put away the sword and robe, both of which were top-grade water-based magical weapons, very suitable for Zhou Yulin.
It would be bad if I gave a gift to Qiniang but not to Yuling.
Pegasus is so chaotic that Zhou Yuling rarely goes out, but she is still not safe. With this sword and robe, she can better protect herself.
Zhu Qinnan knew this very well and knew that Gao Xian wanted to give the sword and robe to Zhou Yuling.
She couldn't help feeling a little jealous, but she and Gao Xian were not in an ordinary relationship, so she should not bother about such trivial matters.
It's rare that Gao Xian likes it, so just let him be happy.
Besides, the most valuable Calming Bell and Huangtang robe were given to her, proving that she was more important in Gao Xian's heart!
Zhu Qiniang calmly changed the subject: "These magic tools plus a few storage bags can be sold for about 6,000 spirit stones..."
