Hearing this, Li Chang’an was sowhat surprised.
"This matter is actually related to ?"
He had thought it was just a conflict of interest between two Foundation Establishnt Clans.
Now it seed this matter wasn’t that simple.
At this mont, Luo Yunshu, in the distance, was about to be caught.
Her face was pale as she shouted, "Qi Xuan, Changqing Mountain has no grudge or enmity with the Qi Family! Why are you targeting us?"
"Luo Yunshu, if you want to know the truth, then surrender without a fight!"
"In your dreams!"
Luo Yunshu bit her lip. With a flash of Spiritual Light in her hand, several Elixir Pills appeared.
These Elixir Pills could allow her to temporarily burst forth with greater strength, but they would damage her future cultivation potential.
Once she swallowed them, her chances of reaching Core Formation in the future would be greatly reduced.
But she had no choice now. After all, if she was about to lose her life, what did Core Formation matter?
Luo Yunshu was just about to swallow the Elixir Pills.
Just then, a gentle voice sounded by her ear.
"Yunshu, co to ."
"Ancestor?"
Luo Yunshu’s heart leaped with joy. Following the voice, she spotted Li Chang’an in the distance.
But her joy quickly turned to worry.
’How could Li Chang’an possibly deal with five Foundation Establishnt Cultivators from the Qi Family on his own, without the help of an array?’
"Ancestor, open your Spirit Beast Bag! After I get inside, use your Escape Technique to return to Changqing Mountain imdiately!"
Luo Yunshu knew Li Chang’an’s Escape Technique was impressive, as he had once slain the Blood Shadow Monster, which was why she said this.
This was the most logical solution she could think of.
But Li Chang’an said, "It’s fine. It’s only five Foundation Establishnt Cultivators, not five Golden Core Masters. First, let’s ask them why they are targeting ."
Hearing this, Luo Yunshu froze.
Five Foundation Establishnt Cultivators...
...only?
His tone was far too casual.
It was as if he wasn’t facing five Foundation Establishnt Cultivators, but five chickens he could slaughter with a wave of his hand.
Luo Yunshu ca to Li Chang’an’s side, raised her small face to look at him, and couldn’t help but ask, "Ancestor, can you really handle this?"
"You’ll see whether I can handle it in a mont."
Li Chang’an couldn’t be bothered to waste words on her. He directly sent out a stream of Evergreen Magical Power to check her body.
’Good, there are no lingering, serious injuries. It won’t affect her future Core Formation.’
At that mont, the five Foundation Establishnt Cultivators from the Qi Family had arrived.
They stared at Li Chang’an, a look of pleasant surprise in their eyes, as if they had just seen so kind of priceless treasure.
The man in the lead laughed. "Daoist Li, I was just thinking about how to lure you out of Changqing Mountain. I didn’t expect you to co out on your own. You’ve saved a lot of trouble!"
Li Chang’an’s expression remained unchanged as he asked in a deep voice, "You are Qi Xuan?"
"That’s right!"
"Daoist Qi, we’ve never had any grudge or enmity. Why are you targeting ?"
"Daoist Li, there’s sothing you don’t know. It’s not I who wants to target you, but a certain big shot!"
Qi Xuan frankly admitted that soone was behind them, telling them to make a move.
He was already a Late Stage of Foundation Establishnt Cultivator.
For him to call soone a "big shot," it had to be a Golden Core Cultivator!
Qi Xuan’s gaze shifted, sizing up Li Chang’an. Confirming that he was only at the Middle Stage of Foundation Establishnt, the smile on his face widened.
Li Chang’an asked again, "Who is this big shot?"
"Daoist Li, once I’ve captured you, I will naturally take you to see him."
With that, Qi Xuan signaled to the other four Foundation Establishnt Cultivators.
The four of them spread out, vaguely blocking off every escape route to prevent Li Chang’an from fleeing.
Even if he were facing him alone, Qi Xuan was confident.
After all, his Cultivation was higher.
Now it was five against one. The advantage was enormous; there was no way they could lose.
"Daoist Li, my apologies, but don’t bla in the underworld!"
The mont his voice fell, the five great Foundation Establishnt Cultivators of the Qi Family erupted with power, using their techniques to capture Li Chang’an.
Luo Yunshu’s heart tightened, and she clutched the few strength-bursting Elixir Pills in her hand.
Although Li Chang’an had sounded very relaxed, she had no confidence in this battle. If things went south, she would imdiately swallow the Elixir Pills and flee with Li Chang’an.
However, what she saw next was a scene she would never forget for the rest of her life.
Facing the five nacing Foundation Establishnt Cultivators, Li Chang’an showed no intention of dodging. He simply raised his hand and unleashed a beam of Cyan Wood Divine Light.
"BOOM!"
One of the Qi Family’s Foundation Establishnt Cultivators was struck by the divine light. Before he could even scream, he exploded on the spot, turning into a shower of blood and gore.
Imdiately after, a second beam of Cyan Wood Divine Light shot out.
In the blink of an eye, another Qi Family Foundation Establishnt Cultivator exploded and died!
Seeing this, the expressions of the other three changed drastically, and they all retreated.
But then two more beams of Cyan Wood Divine Light shot out, blowing up two of them.
At this point, only Qi Xuan was left.
"How is this possible?"
Qi Xuan’s face was filled with terror as he cried out.
"Li Chang’an, you’re not in Foundation Establishnt, you’re a Golden Core! You, a dignified Golden Core Master, actually disguised yourself as a Foundation Establishnt Cultivator!"
The battle ended far too quickly.
It couldn’t even be called Magical Combat; it was a one-sided slaughter!
Among the four Foundation Establishnt Cultivators who had been blasted into a bloody mist, one had been on par with Qi Xuan in strength—a genuine Late Stage of Foundation Establishnt.
Even if Li Chang’an also had a Late Stage Foundation Establishnt Cultivation, he couldn’t possibly have killed them so easily.
It was like he was slaughtering chickens!
The only explanation was that Li Chang’an had already broken through to the Golden Core Realm!
"Golden Core... Is Ancestor really at the Golden Core Realm?"
L Luo Yunshu’s small face was also filled with shock. She stared blankly at Li Chang’an, her heart filled with disbelief.
She knew Li Chang’an could fight above his level.
But what she had imagined "fighting above his level" to an was a Middle Stage of Foundation Establishnt barely holding his own against a Late Stage, not killing them with a wave of his hand!
Li Chang’an didn’t answer.
His expression was indifferent as he appeared before Qi Xuan.
"Daoist Qi, can you tell now just who that big shot is?"
Qi Xuan’s face was etched with fear, his mind reeling. He didn’t dare not to answer.
"It’s the Fake Pill Master from the Ten Thousand Swords Sect, Nie Ting!"
"Him?"
"Yes, it’s him!"
Qi Xuan, covered in a cold sweat, replied hastily.
"He found us and told us to lure you out of Changqing Mountain and capture you. He promised that if we did the job well, he would give us a chance to enter the Ten Thousand Swords Sect’s Library. But you wouldn’t leave Changqing Mountain, so we had no choice but to make a move against the Luo Family..."
"So that’s how it is."
Li Chang’an understood what had happened.
However, he was a little puzzled.
’Why didn’t Nie Ting do it himself? Why did he look for Qi Xuan and the others instead?’
’Could it be that Nie Ting wasn’t confident, so he had them test the waters first?’
As he was thinking, Qi Xuan suddenly dropped to his knees in mid-air, his face full of terror as he begged for rcy repeatedly.
"Elder Li, I was used by that Nie Ting! I didn’t know you were a Golden Core Master! I beg you to spare my life!"
