"My wife truly cares for . If it weren’t for her bridging relations, how could our Liuu Family have the great opportunity to rise to a Quasi-Ninth-Grade Clan? My dear, rest assured, once we reach the fief in Yunshan County, you’ll beco the second-in-command of our Liuu Family. I will surely not let you suffer any grievances."
"Husband, you must keep your word."
"I would willingly die for you, my dear. How could I bear to deceive you?"
"Smooth talk..."
The two lingered in affection for a while longer.
Only then did Ping Wanning rise and say:
"Husband, I will go to the Jade Spring in the backyard for a wash, you rest first."
"Alright."
Liuu Qingyun, who had been toiling for a long ti, was also utterly exhausted.
But because he was to go to Wanning Marketplace at dawn, he was too excited to sleep.
He ntally reviewed the recent events.
He had visited the Shangguan Family multiple tis. Though they weren’t as dismissive as before and treated him with so courtesy, they never ntioned anything about the Quasi-Ninth-Grade Noble Family status.
Evidently.
The Shangguan Family never considered supporting their Liuu Family.
In that case.
It’s understandable to seek better opportunities.
Liuu Qingyun snorted coldly in his heart.
Once their Liuu Family acquired a fief, with the Ping Family’s assistance, becoming Ninth Grade would only take a few years.
By that ti.
Even with the protection of Shangguan Feng.
Crushing Fu Changsheng, that beast, would be as easy as squashing an ant.
The more he thought about it, the more excited he beca.
Liuu Qingyun couldn’t sleep. He got up from the bed imdiately, not bothering to dress, quickly walked over, and embraced Ping Wanning, who was about to open the array, laughingly saying:
"My dear, let’s have a mandarin duck bath together!"
As he spoke.
A technique was cast onto the array.
The array’s light curtain swiftly opened.
At this mont.
A surge of life and death crisis struck his heart. Liuu Qingyun didn’t think twice and imdiately flung Ping Wanning out of his arms into the air.
Bang!!
But a beam of intense light shot in from outside the door.
Ping Wanning, at only the Middle Stage of Qi Cultivation, didn’t even have ti to activate her protective light shield and was instantly blasted into scattered pieces of flesh.
The intense light, unwavering, aid directly at Liuu Qingyun’s forehead.
Thanks to the mont afforded by Ping Wanning.
A Yellow Luo Umbrella appeared in Liuu Qingyun’s hand instantly.
"Bang!"
The intense light struck the Yellow Luo Umbrella.
The Yellow Luo Umbrella shattered in response.
Liuu Qingyun’s body flickered, narrowly avoiding the intense light.
At the sa ti.
"Screech!"
A Silver-winged Snow Eagle followed closely behind the intense light, its claws flashing like lightning, slashing down toward Liuu Qingyun’s face.
"Bang!"
At the critical mont.
Liuu Qingyun called upon his Lifebound Spiritual Artifact, the Heaven-Shocking Hamr. With overwhelming montum, he swung it towards the Silver-winged Snow Eagle.
The manifested Silver-winged Snow Eagle shattered with a sound.
But that wasn’t all.
Liuu Qingyun wielded the Heaven-Shocking Hamr with such vigor that shadows of it densely surrounded him, providing comprehensive protection.
As he completed this magic.
An assault followed imdiately.
Thousands of Sword Qis howled in from outside the courtyard.
Clang clang clang!
The myriad Sword Qis clashed with the shadows of the Heaven-Shocking Hamr, sparks flying.
But for the ti being, the Sword Qis struggled to breach the Heaven-Shocking Hamr’s defense.
Scanning around with his Divine Sense, Liuu Qingyun couldn’t locate the attacker. Being able to launch an assault from forty zhang away indicated the opponent was already a Fourth-Layer Foundation Establishnt Cultivator:
"Can’t win!"
Making a split-second decision, Liuu Qingyun imdiately clasped his hands in a technique, intending to deploy a secret technique for escape when.
A familiar figure stepped out from beyond the courtyard:
"Fu Changsheng?!"
This....
How is it possible?!
Wasn’t Fu Changsheng only at Peak Qi Cultivation? How could he have broken into the Foundation Establishnt Stage in just a few years, and where did he get the Foundation Establishnt Pill?!
Even if he broke through to the Foundation Establishnt Stage.
His current strength couldn’t possibly be at the Fourth Layer of the Foundation Establishnt!
Yet the young man walking towards him was unmistakably Fu Changsheng.
In a flash.
He finally understood why the Shangguan Family hadn’t inford him about the Quasi-Ninth-Grade Noble Family status. It was because this brat Fu Changsheng had advanced to the Foundation Establishnt Stage:
"Fu Changsheng, just you wait for !"
No matter what thod Fu Changsheng used to reach this level.
At present.
He couldn’t win:
"Escape!!"
Then Liuu Qingyun once more clasped his hands for a technique.
But.
In that mont of hesitation.
Fu Changsheng’s hand activated the Primordial Alms Bowl once more.
Bang!
A Three-Colored Extre Light burst forth, like lightning, shooting towards him at incredible speed.
Bam bam bam!!
The seemingly impregnable shadow of the Heaven-Shocking Hamr.
Shattered like paper the instant it t the Three-Colored Extre Light.
As Liuu Qingyun hurriedly clasped a Flowing Light Talisman to himself and shifted his body slightly to the right at a peculiar angle.
Bang!
The Flowing Light Talisman disintegrated.
The extre light pierced through his left arm!
Bam!
His left arm shattered in response.
At this mont, Liuu Qingyun had completed the Blood Escape Technique with his right hand, a flash of blood light enveloped him, glaring fiercely at Fu Changsheng: "Brat, just you wait for !"
The blood light covered him.
He was about to disappear into the ground.
However.
At that mont.
A purple divine light, following close behind the Three-Colored Extre Light, ca rushing in, unnoticed by Liuu Qingyun due to the Three-Colored Divine Light’s cover. By the ti he realized sothing was amiss, the Purple Qi Divine Light was already at his brow!
Bang!!
The divine light pierced through his mind.
Liuu Qingyun’s eyes widened, as he collapsed to the ground.
As the last trace of vitality extinguished in his eyes.
His mind held only one thought:
"Eleven years ago, when Fu Changsheng was only at the Qi Cultivation Second Layer and ca seeking help, he shouldn’t have listened to that wretch Liuu izhen’s slanders and spared Fu Changsheng, that brat. The mont Fu Changsheng stepped into their Liuu Family’s gates back then, he should have chopped down that brat with one stroke!"
Or rather.
When the Fu Family received favor from the Shangguan Family.
He should have sought an alternative path sooner.
Instead of waiting for the Ping Family to approach and dithering for so long before agreeing to affiliate with the Ping Family.
Regret!
Resentnt!!
Co morning, he was supposed to ascend as the Patriarch of a Quasi-Ninth-Grade Noble Family and completely rewrite the Liuu Family’s fate!
His ancestor started off as just a Horse Slave.
Today.
It seems it completely perished at his hands.
How would he face his forefathers down in the underworld now!!
With boundless regret and dissatisfaction.
Liuu Qingyun’s last glimr of life in his eyes vanished completely.
