Starting as a Son-in-law to Establish an immortal Family

Chapter 2585: Chapter 842: Lu Quanzhen Slays the Ghost Demon, Heavenly Corpse Sect Master Presents a Concubine! (Double Chapter)

”Do your utmost to gather intelligence on this person.”

Inside the palace, Turtle Immortal Ancestor wore a black robe, his back hunched like a dormant old turtle, exuding an ancient and profound aura.

Though his bloodline talent sensed good fortune in this endeavor,

Turtle Immortal Ancestor knew well that destiny is fickle, and divinations cannot be fully trusted.

Sometimes, though the heavenly secrets predict auspicious fortune one moment, disaster may strike unexpectedly the next, bringing calamity suddenly!

Especially since this journey involved the East Emperor’s Successor.

The East Emperor Mirror in the opponent’s possession, being a supreme treasure of the Sun, Moon and Star Palace, could, if the origin source is burned to forcibly revive its power, become extremely terrifying.

Even as a pure-blooded True Spirit descendant, capable of challenging Nascent Soul Late Stage giants, he dared not be careless.

He must exercise utmost caution and make all necessary preparations.

”Hmm.”

The Star King’s expression was stern, nodding solemnly.

He was always defiant, and proud, never regarding others highly.

Yet in the face of this ”East Emperor’s Successor,” unpredictable and even bringing ominous signs of crisis, he set aside his arrogance as if facing an abyss.

Especially seeing Sea Suppressing Ancestor and Turtle Immortal Ancestor, both displaying extraordinary prudence; he was influenced by their demeanor.

After discussing for a long time, Sea Suppressing Ancestor went to check the progress of the Possession Reincarnation of True Monarch Zhenhai, True Monarch Swallowing Sea, and Ling Bo True Monarch.

Preparations were made to further invest resources, aiding them in returning to the Nascent Soul Stage as soon as possible to strengthen the action!

...

Jin Kingdom, Myriad Beasts Mountain Range.

Ghost Demon True Master had just quelled a demon beast uprising at a mineral vein, returning tired to the stationed outpost.

Every faction had tasks of sitting in duty.

The best conditions were undoubtedly found in the Immortal City.

Next were major points or stable post enterprises.

Like coming to the Myriad Beasts Mountain Range for frontier development, sitting in duty here had the worst conditions.

Not only was the environment harsh, affairs were complex, and risks uncontrollable.

Yet there was no choice.

Once, he and ”Qu Changtian’s” issues led Yangming True Master to attack the mountain gate.

Shaming the sect, injuring many high officials, and costing a Third Rank Lifespan Extension Pill, two Coagulation Crystal Elixirs, a top-level Core Formation Spiritual Object, and a Vajra Sharira to settle matters.

Thus, to repay the sect’s debts and cover the medical expenses of several high-ups, for sixty years he was forced to take on such tiring and dirty tasks.

This was even under the fortunate breakthrough of the Supreme Elder ”Ming Sha True Monarch” reaching Nascent Soul, with the sect constantly expanding.

Otherwise, in prior years, such dirty and exhausting tasks might not even come with the current resource income.

”Another nine years, and I’ll be completely debt-free.”

Ghost Demon True Master returned to the cave mansion, exhausted, exhaled a long breath of turbid energy, hoping to clear his debts soon.

While sitting cross-legged, calming his mind to rest, he suddenly sensed something and swiftly looked towards the outside of the outpost.

”Is the Great Elder coming?”

He sensed the qi mechanism and sound of the Ancient Blood Bat, the spiritual pet of his sect’s Great Elder.

Ghost Demon True Master’s heart was bewildered, wondering why the Great Elder would come here; could it mean new actions in the Myriad Beasts Mountain Range?

Earlier, the sect’s wanton slaughter in the mountain range had provoked the Fourth Rank Demon King, pacified only by the Supreme Elder.

Without further thought, he hurried out of the cave mansion to greet them.

Yet the scene before him left him stunned.

Descending from the Ancient Blood Bat was not the Great Elder,

but the Yinming Sect Master and a youth with an elegant appearance;

a youth with handsome features;

a little magnificent girl;

and a blond-haired youth clothed in golden armor;

”Qu Changtian!”

Before Ghost Demon True Master expressed his disbelief about the Great Elder’s spiritual pet carrying others,

he immediately looked at Lu Quanzhen at the lead, eyes filled with killing intent and hatred.

Regarding Lu Quanzhen, he remembered clearly.

Sixty years of hatred and killing intent in his heart had reached the extreme.

After all, if not for Qu Changtian, how else could he have been pathetically injured by Heaven-shaking Demon those years ago.

Escaping back to the sect, confronted by Yangming True Master demanding accountability, ultimately resulting in enormous debts.

Though he dared not hate Yangming True Master for the wrongdoings,

his heart wished to flay Qu Changtian, pull his tendons, consume his flesh, break his bones!

If not for Qu Changtian, how could Ghost Demon True Master have fallen to such a state.

Sixty years!

Did anyone know how he survived these sixty years?

Not only exhausting labor but his cultivation level had not advanced an inch.

Moreover, his body accumulated many hidden wounds, shortening his life by decades at least!

”Qu Changtian, why are you here!”

Yet as hatred and killing intent surged in his heart, Ghost Demon True Master regained clarity, sensing something was amiss.

Not mentioning that the Ancient Blood Bat was the spiritual pet of the Great Elder, only the Great and Supreme Elders could use it as transport.

Even the sect master seemed somewhat servile facing Qu Changtian...

Ghost Demon True Master was puzzled, unable to understand why the sect master would behave so...

”Impudent! How dare you disrespect the Young Master!”

Yet as his words came out, Yinming Sect Master fiercely scolded, unleashing late-stage Core Formation mana, striking Ghost Demon True Master hard on the face.

Even if Yinming Sect Master was injured under Lu Changsheng’s pressure,

he was still a late-stage Core Formation cultivator.

Far superior in power to Ghost Demon True Master.

In such situations, Ghost Demon True Master had no time to react, caught off guard.

”Poof!”

Ghost Demon True Master’s dry, gaunt face turned bloody and blurred, flying sideways, vomiting blood, his expression confused, surprised, and stunned.

Young Master!?

Qu Changtian had become the sect’s Young Master?
