In the end, he had no choice but to abandon the Wu Clan Territory. Disregarding the lives of his fellow clan mbers, he fought desperately to break through the blockade set by Zheng Qingqing and her companion, then transford into a streak of light and vanished over the horizon.
"Zheng Family! I, Wu Lianshan, swear I will not rest until I have my revenge!"
Wu Lianshan’s rage-filled voice echoed across the sky.
Zheng Feihong’s expression changed.
If he truly escaped, then the Zheng Family couldn’t consider this battle a victory.
This was because a Foundation Establishnt Great Cultivator, if they single-mindedly hid in the shadows to seek revenge, would inevitably cause imasurable losses to the Zheng Family.
"After him!"
Zheng Feihong and Zheng Qingqing imdiately gave chase, disappearing over the horizon in the blink of an eye.
At the sa ti, nurous Zheng Clan mbers appeared. They sward into the Wu Clan Territory and began to slaughter the remaining Wu disciples.
The thick stench of blood filled the canyon, lingering long after.
...
「At that mont.」
Li Chang’an was hot on Wu Lianshan’s heels.
Wu Lianshan’s physique was truly impressive. After suffering one heavy blow after another, he could still flee without stopping.
This flight lasted for a full four hours!
Fortunately, his Escape Technique wasn’t particularly outstanding.
By entering his Borrowed State and using the Little Five Elents Escape Technique, Li Chang’an was able to keep up.
After about another quarter of an hour, Wu Lianshan finally slowed down, stopping in front of a small stream.
He let out a slow breath, his aura suddenly plumting. He sat down by the stream and began to heal his wounds.
He was gravely injured from the battle.
His Tier Two Body Refinent physique was covered in a dense network of fine cracks, like a porcelain doll on the verge of shattering.
’Zheng Family! As long as I’m still alive, you’ll never know peace!’
Wu Lianshan seethed with hatred, swearing a silent oath.
He was well aware that by now, the Wu Clan Territory was most likely littered with corpses.
Without the protection of their Foundation Establishnt Ancestor, all the Wu Clan mbers could only be slaughtered at will.
Fortunately, he had foreseen this situation and had already arranged for a portion of the main family line to be sent away, ordering them to change their surna and develop in another region.
’After I recover from my injuries, I’ll go check on them. There are a few with decent talent over there...’
Just as Wu Lianshan was thinking this, a sharp Sword Intent materialized behind him.
Several Sword Arrays appeared one after another, emitting an aura that would startle even an Early Stage of Foundation Establishnt cultivator.
’Not good!’
Wu Lianshan knew this was bad. He had just relaxed his guard, and now, under this sudden attack, he had to forcibly muster a breath of Qi.
He was about to dodge to the side to avoid the killing intent behind him.
But at that very mont, the Profound Water Turtle appeared to his right. It opened its mouth and spat out a powerful Water Elent Technique.
Wu Lianshan’s expression changed again as he sensed the Profound Water Turtle’s aura.
"A Tier Two Great Demon!"
Most Demon Beasts had formidable bodies, and Turtle Species Demon Beasts even more so. This was enough to nullify the advantage of his Tier Two Body Refinent.
If he got entangled in a fight, he wouldn’t gain any advantage.
He might even attract the pursuing Foundation Establishnt cultivators from the Zheng Family.
Wu Lianshan didn’t dare to linger. He shot into the sky, planning to leave this place and find another spot to heal.
But suddenly, his body froze, as if he had slamd into an invisible wall.
The next instant, ripples spread through the empty space around him, forming a large, turquoise net that instantly ensnared him.
He was like a fish caught in a net, unable to break free no matter how much he struggled.
"May I ask which Daoist is here?"
Wu Lianshan’s face was pale as he hurriedly shouted.
"I am Wu Lianshan of the Foundation Establishnt Wu Family! I was rely passing through and have no ill intentions. I implore you, Daoist, to be rciful!"
In his view, the person who had suddenly attacked him must be an extrely powerful Foundation Establishnt Sword Cultivator who also possessed a Tier Two Great Demon Spirit Pet.
A person like that couldn’t possibly be unknown.
Perhaps it was soone he had t before.
However, when he saw Li Chang’an’s face, he froze as if struck by lightning.
"You..."
Wu Lianshan had seen a portrait of Li Chang’an at Cao Zhengxiong’s place and knew he was just a minor figure at the Qi Refining Sixth Layer.
He could kill countless minor figures like that with a single casual Technique.
He had never paid him any mind.
But now, he had fallen into this minor figure’s hands!
"How could it be..."
Wu Lianshan found it utterly unbelievable.
How could Li Chang’an wield such terrifying Sword Qi, and why did he have a Tier Two Spirit Beast?
Moreover, Li Chang’an’s strength also far exceeded his expectations.
He had actually reached the Qi Refining Eighth Layer!
"Li Chang’an, how can it be you?"
Wu Lianshan couldn’t accept it; his mind was filled with too many questions.
Li Chang’an smiled. "And why can’t it be ? Were you expecting so great personage, Senior?"
"You..."
Wu Lianshan took a deep breath, quickly suppressing his shock and anger.
He forced a smile.
"Li, there is no enmity between us. All our problems stem from the Zheng Family, am I not right?"
"No need for more words, Senior. Today, I will kill you!"
Li Chang’an’s smile vanished, his expression turning cold.
Wu Lianshan was enraged by his words.
"Junior, do you really think you can kill just because you have a Tier Two Spirit Beast?"
"I’ll say it again, Senior... why not?"
Li Chang’an sneered and instantly entered his Borrowed State.
Before Wu Lianshan’s shocked eyes, his aura surged, breaking through the limits of Qi Refining in an instant and reaching a level close to Foundation Establishnt.
"You’ve already reached Foundation Establishnt!"
Wu Lianshan was horrified.
Although it was slightly weaker than a normal Foundation Establishnt, it was still Foundation Establishnt!
If he had known that Li Chang’an had already reached Foundation Establishnt and had a Tier Two Great Demon, he never would have agreed to the Cao Family’s request. He wouldn’t have dared to even think about targeting him!
At this thought, he was filled with regret and no longer dared to underestimate Li Chang’an in the slightest.
"Li, no... Daoist Li, I spoke rudely before. Please don’t take it to heart! I am willing to offer you Treasures as an apology!"
"No need. Your life will be apology enough!"
Li Chang’an’s voice was ice-cold.
The next instant, the Nine Jade Sword Talismans ignited in unison. The astonishing Sword Qi ford a terrifying Sword Array that tore through the sky in a flash, slamming into Wu Lianshan with deadly force.
BOOM!
With a look of utter horror, Wu Lianshan trembled.
His body, already covered in cracks, suddenly exploded. It burst into countless fragnts of flesh and blood, which fell into the stream below, instantly dyeing the babbling water red.
"Co!"
Li Chang’an beckoned with his hand, and a swaying, sinister Soul Banner appeared in it.
Wu Lianshan’s Soul imdiately appeared.
The mont he saw the Venerable Soul Banner, his face filled with shock and despair. He begged for rcy again and again, pleading only for Li Chang’an to let him walk the Reincarnation Path.
"Daoist Li, the Venerable Soul Banner is an Evil Artifact! Using such an Evil Artifact goes against the harmony of the heavens and will damage your own destiny..."
"Too much nonsense. You can say the rest inside the Soul Banner!"
Li Chang’an snorted coldly. How could he possibly let such a fine Tier Two Main Soul go?
Without another word, he imdiately sucked Wu Lianshan’s Soul into the Venerable Soul Banner.
However, the Venerable Soul Banner was currently only at Tier One Peak, and containing such a powerful Tier Two Main Soul was a bit of a strain.
Li Chang’an used his own power to temporarily seal Wu Lianshan’s Soul, planning to find so Treasures for the Venerable Soul Banner to devour later.
Then, with a wave of his hand, he collected Wu Lianshan’s Storage Pouch and scattered Treasures.
Only then did he let out a long sigh of relief.
Looking at the bloodstained stream, Li Chang’an felt a daze co over him.
Not so long ago, in his eyes, all Foundation Establishnt cultivators were lofty, untouchable beings.
Beings like that could have turned him to ash with a single breath.
But today...
He had personally slain a Foundation Establishnt Powerhouse!
