Chapter 49: Chapter 49: Zheng Ling’Er in Danger

The Zheng Family’s Library housed a vast collection of Cultivation Techniques and Magic.

It was rumored that among them was a Fire Element Technique that had reached the Top Grade Tier.

It was a prize coveted by countless Loose Cultivators with Fire Element Roots.

Furthermore, there were Middle Grade Cultivation Techniques for the other four elements, all of them high-quality.

’I hope this favor will be enough to earn me a chance to enter the Library.’

Li Chang’an mused.

The Zheng Family’s Library was difficult for outsiders to enter.

Even the family’s own disciples mostly needed to accumulate contribution points to be allowed inside to choose Cultivation Techniques and Magic.

’I’ll be facing two enemies at the Late Stage of Qi Refining this time. The divination was auspicious, but I still can’t afford to be careless.’

Li Chang’an stared at the results of the divination for a long time.

’Zheng Songhe… Since he’s a Zheng Family Elder, he must have a Cultivation at the Late Stage of Qi Refining. He can handle one of the enemies.’

Under normal circumstances, Li Chang’an would only need to deal with one enemy at the Late Stage of Qi Refining.

Whether he used a Puppet or just sent Dahuang, it would be no problem.

But he had always been cautious.

He had to prepare for the worst-case scenario in all matters.

’I need to prepare a few more escape Talismans for Dahuang, so he can run if things go south.’

Li Chang’an thought to himself.

He simulated all sorts of possibilities in his mind.

Time slowly passed.

Before he knew it, the entire night had gone by.

…

「The next day, early in the morning.」

Li Chang’an altered his aura and left the Marketplace.

He followed his usual route, heading straight for the Black Market.

Before long, he paused, hearing the sounds of a fierce battle.

’Just as I expected.’

With a thought, Li Chang’an had the Profound Water Turtle activate its Borrowing Technique Talent.

Then, he used several aura-concealing Talismans to suppress his presence to the absolute minimum.

’Let’s see what the situation really is.’

With a flicker, Li Chang’an cast the Little Five Elements Escape Technique, silently merging into the earth.

Ahead, not far away, Magical Power raged in a fierce battle.

Li Chang’an saw four figures, with Zheng Ling’Er, dressed in a white gown, being particularly conspicuous.

’That old man protecting Zheng Ling’Er must be her grandfather, Zheng Songhe.’

The situation was more or less as Li Chang’an had imagined.

Zheng Ling’Er’s strength was insufficient, so she could only use Talismans, Magical Artifacts, and the like, trying her best to affect the two enemies.

But the impact was not significant.

Zheng Songhe was practically fighting two against one.

At that moment, a Fire Dragon formed from Magical Power soared into the air, its flames churning as it bared its fangs and claws. Its aura was terrifyingly powerful.

This was the Zheng Family’s Middle Grade Fire Element Technique, the Fire Dragon Roar!

“Go!”

Zheng Songhe’s hair and beard flew wildly, his Magic Robe flapping as he waved a large hand.

The Fire Dragon roared and immediately charged toward the two black-robed Cultivators.

“Heh heh, Zheng Songhe, is this all you’ve got?”

The two black-robed Cultivators didn’t dodge or evade, their faces showing no fear.

Water Element Magical Power fluctuated around them; they were both cultivators with Water Spirit Roots.

The Five Elements countered each other.

And the Water Element was the perfect counter to the Fire Element!

“Nether Water Arrow!”

The two of them cast the same Magic in unison.

The surging Water Element Magical Power transformed into countless deadly Water Arrows, which erupted in an instant and shot straight for the Fire Dragon.

RUMBLE!

Water and Fire clashed, the sound shaking the heavens and the earth.

After just a few breaths, the Fire Dragon let out a wail, unable to maintain its form, and dissipated on the spot.

The remaining Water Arrows continued onward with undiminished force, flying in unison toward Zheng Songhe.

“Defend!”

Zheng Songhe flicked his sleeve, and a ray of Spiritual Light shot out, transforming into a Defensive Magical Artifact that blocked the path in front of him and Zheng Ling’er.

The numerous Water Arrows slammed into the Magical Artifact, creating a series of thunderous booms.

The Magical Artifact trembled.

It seemed unable to hold on.

Zheng Songhe struggled to maintain it, his face turning a few shades paler.

“Tsk tsk, an Elder of the Zheng Family… is nothing special after all.”

The two black-robed Cultivators cackled strangely.

Zheng Songhe didn’t speak, still gritting his teeth and holding on.

These two were no weaker than him, and their elemental attributes even countered his.

Even facing one of them would have been difficult.

Let alone two.

Moreover, he had to divert his attention to protect his granddaughter, Zheng Ling’er.

“Ling’Er, I’ll find a way to tie these two down. When you get a chance, don’t hesitate. Just run!” Zheng Songhe’s tone was heavy as he sent a Sound Transmission to Zheng Ling’er.

Hearing this, Zheng Ling’er’s heart trembled, and she said urgently:

“Grandfather, I can help you.”

“You can’t help with anything! Just listen to me!”

Zheng Songhe’s attitude was resolute.

Zheng Ling’er grew more anxious, wanting to do something.

But she quickly realized that in a situation like this, there was nothing she could do!

Staying here would only drag her grandfather down.

’If only I had Sister Qingqing’s level of Cultivation… ’

Tears welled up in her eyes as a deep sense of helplessness spread through her heart.

Meanwhile, the attacks from the two black-robed Cultivators grew even more ferocious.

One Magic after another bombarded Zheng Songhe’s Defensive Magical Artifact, sending waves of turbulent Water Element Magical Power surging outwards.

“Old man, stop trying to hold on!”

“Any more struggling is futile. Why bother?”

Their words were full of mockery.

Just then, Zheng Songhe suddenly swallowed an Explosive Spirit Pill, and his aura surged dramatically.

Terrifying Fire Element Magical Power spread out, seemingly about to scorch the entire sky red.

He pointed a finger.

Streaks of intense flame linked together, instantly forming a cage that trapped the two men inside.

The Middle Grade Technique, Flame Prison!

“Ling’Er, go now!”

Knowing the cage wouldn’t hold them for long, Zheng Songhe immediately yelled to Zheng Ling’er.

“Grandfather…”

Zheng Ling’er’s eyes were blurred with tears, her heart filled with reluctance to leave.

But she did not hesitate.

She immediately used all of her escape methods, transforming into a streak of light and turning to flee straight toward the Marketplace.

“Hmph, trying to run?”

The two black-robed Cultivators snorted coldly.

They joined forces.

They cast their Magic in unison.

After just a few breaths, they shattered the Flame Prison.

“I’ll go after the girl. You stay here and don’t let this old man escape.”

“Alright!”

The two split up.

One of them flickered, his Speed increasing dramatically as he gave chase in the direction Zheng Ling’er had fled.

Zheng Songhe intended to stop him.

But the other man let out a sinister cackle and blocked his path.

“Old man, you can barely save yourself. You still want to save someone else?”

“Bastard!”

Zheng Songhe’s eyes were filled with anxiety as he glanced in the direction of Zheng Ling’er’s escape.

Although his Magical Power was currently stronger, no matter what technique he used, he couldn’t break through his opponent’s blockade.

Furthermore, the effects of the Explosive Spirit Pill wouldn’t last much longer.

…

At this moment, Zheng Ling’er was fleeing at top speed.

As a disciple of the Zheng Family, she naturally had no shortage of Treasures for escaping.

Unfortunately, the gap in strength between them was simply too great.

In just a few moments, the black-robed Cultivator had already caught up.

“Heh heh, little girl, why are you running? You’re just choosing a different place to die.”

Hearing this, Zheng Ling’er’s body trembled.

Seeing the black-robed Cultivator closing in, a sense of despair began to grow in her heart.

Just then, something unexpected happened.

SWOOSH!

A flying needle, as fine as a hair, appeared from nowhere and shot instantly toward the back of the black-robed Cultivator’s head.

The black-robed Cultivator sensed danger, and the hair on his body stood on end.

But it was too late to dodge.

PCHT!

The strange flying needle pierced straight into his mind.

Terrifying Magical Power erupted inside his skull.

His body stiffened, and he slowly fell to the ground.

His aura was gone.

He was dead!
