Immortality begins with Becoming an Alchemy Grandmaster

Chapter 695: Chapter 286: Destroy Their Taoist Lineage, Take Their Wealth! (On Monthly Tickets) _1

The Luo Tian Creed acted swiftly.

But there were those who moved even faster.

That was the Li family of Qin Flower River!

By the break of day at Tanqiu Mountain...

The entire landscape lay in shambles, with blood and fire everywhere.

Li Yingzhang held a long sword in his hand, fearlessly radiating the aura of Late Stage Qi Refinement for all to feel.

Looking at the cultivators who had flocked around from all directions upon hearing the news.

He was completely unfazed, pointing his sword squarely ahead.

”Vengeance for the wronged, redress for the aggrieved.”

”Today, my Qin Flower River Li Family will annihilate the Hu Family on Tanqiu Mountain.”

”Henceforth, all grudges, feuds, and grievances will be obliterated!”

The spectators were all taken aback.

Indeed, with the offenders killed, there would be no more scores to settle.

But nobody raised a question.

After all, the Qin Flower River Li family was renowned for its vast wealth and power, and even with Li Jinhuang’s death, they still had hundreds of Qi Refinement Stage Cultivators at their disposal.

Moreover, Li Yingzhang himself was famed for his immense combat capabilities, being at Qi Refinement Finalization for several years now.

All the more so now that he’d allied himself with the Danxia Luo Tian Creed!

Add to that their legitimate reason for retaliation, hardly would anyone label it as wanton slaughter.

Who would dare to intervene?

As expected, nobody interjected a single word.

Just as everyone remained silent, suddenly, a cry came from the rear.

”The Luo Tian Creed has launched a counterattack!”

”What?”

Various people were taken aback, and a rogue cultivator quickly asked, ”What counterattack? Who’s the target? And who’s leading the charge?”

The Qi Refinement Stage Rogue Cultivator who had shared the news, still panting from his rushed arrival, yelled excitedly:

”They’re naturally retaliating against those Foundation Establishment Cultivators who aimed for the Luo Tian Creed yesterday!”

”At dawn today, a large number of cultivators were mobilized from Danxia Peak. Later in the morning, over two hundred set off, splitting into two groups heading towards the Dan Yuan Sect and Tianying Peak.”

”I’m not sure who’s leading the charge, but there definitely are Foundation Establishment True Cultivators from the Luo Tian Creed amongst them!”

After he’d spilled all of this information in one breath, he began huffing and puffing heavily.

Upon hearing this, the rogue cultivators exchanged looks of disbelief.

”Fire Spirit Lord killed their Foundation Establishment Stage Ancestor already, does he still seek to annihilate them completely?”

”His name’s Luo Chen, and he should use the refined daoist name of ’Qin Hua Rogue Cultivator’.”

”That’s not the point!” The rogue cultivator cut him off, shocked: ”By doing this, doesn’t Fire Spirit Lord fear the punishment of the Immortal City Law Enforcement Team?”

”It’s Qin Hua Rogue Cultivator!”

Someone next to him explained: ”Since the Immortal City has changed hands, and the Law Enforcement Team is ineffective, far less when the disruption is outside the city. Can’t really blame him. Luo Chen is someone who can’t stand a speck of dust in his eye. If others infringe upon him, it’s only natural for him to retaliate a hundredfold.”

”It’s Qin Hua Rogue Cultivator!”

”Shut up! A man with a sect and lineage doesn’t count as a rogue cultivator!” The earlier Late Stage Qi Refinement Rogue Cultivator cursed angrily. The other party could only keep his head down due to the cultivation gap between them.

That rogue cultivator’s eyes sparkled, ”To use the power of one creed to fight against the forces of two powerful entities. It’s quite a grand move, I must witness this.”

”Dan Yuan Sect isn’t far from here, just a few dozen miles away. I can reach there in a short while, let’s head there first!”

”Let’s go together! Let’s go together!”

The rogue cultivators nearby the Tanqiu Mountain didn’t have the slightest bit of hesitation.

There and then, they headed towards the nearest Dan Yuan Sect.

On Tanqiu Mountain, Li Yingjun, wielding a long sword, went to stand next to her elder brother.

”Big brother, should we go help Luo Tian Creed?”

Li Yingzhang shook his head, his expression serious.

”No need!”

”But senior Luo has helped us a lot.”

Li Yingzhang responded coolly: ”If we go, we’d only disturb them. Senior Luo surely has his own plans. Moreover, when he does need our help, he will notify us. And when that time comes, I will not shirk from my duty!”

At that point...

His gaze landed on Yuan Dongsheng who was far away, busy commanding his men to seize the Hu Family’s legacy.

”Little sister, later, give all the resources we have seized, seven tenths of them, and all the books related to the Dao of Alchemy to your husband. Let him bring them back and present them to senior Luo.”

Li Yingjun was surprised: ”Seven tenths? Isn’t that a lot?”

”You should think it’s too little!” Li Yingzhang said calmly.

Li Yingjun hesitated, then suddenly understood something.

Now that she was married to Yuan Dongsheng, she naturally stood on the side of the Luo Tian Creed.

Everything she did, everything she said, should be in the best interest of the Luo Tian Creed.

Moreover, the more wealth she could bring back, the higher Yuan Dongsheng’s standing within the Luo Tian Creed would be, and as a result, the relations between her Li family and the Luo Tian Creed, bound by marriage, would be even more inseparable.

Her elder brother was hinting her through words.

She took in a deep breath and nodded heavily: ”Thanks for the tip, big brother. I understand.”

Li Yingzhang managed to squeeze out a smile, then turned back to look at the ruined landscape of Tanqiu Mountain.

Once a beautiful mountain rich with sandalwood fragrances, now such a disaster has befallen it.

As for ’a family of three Foundation Establishments’?

It was nothing more than a veiled illusion of prosperity and success.

On the other hand, the Luo Tian Creed was truly on the right path!

With an endless influx of powerful individuals from within its ranks and its external trades flourishing.

Assuming this outing for the Luo Tian Creed is a success, and they manage to seize the wealth left behind by the enemy’s forces, once it’s fully assimilated, the Luo Tian Creed’s own power would likely skyrocket.

”My Li family must hold tight onto Luo Tian Creed!”

...

Yuan He Mountain.

A not-too-tall mountain, more or less a kilometer high, certainly no match for Danxia Peak.

But because Dan Yuan Sect was situated here, the mountain had gained a certain level of fame.

Over the years, countless cultivators have come and gone.

Dan Yuanzi, owner of widespread contacts, constantly had Foundation Establishment True Cultivators coming and going.

However, since yesterday’s incident of Dan Yuanzi, slain by Li Jinhuang’s own hand, falling into Qin Flower River...

The Dan Yuan Sect was engulfed in panic and fear.

But after all, having been a small sect with over two hundred years of inheritance, there were always forebears within who maintained calm and stability.

So on this early morning, they had invited a companion of Dan Yuanzi, a Foundation Establishment True Cultivator with whom Dan Yuanzi had shared a good relationship in his lifetime.
