Longevity Reward Redemption: The Immortal Clan Starts with Farmers

102: They ganged up on Meng Xikun, and Chuan Jie used his sword to slay the immortal official!Just when Zhao Song thought he wouldn’t survive the day, the sound of hooves suddenly echoed from outside the valley, followed by the sight of five people and one dog, who came rushing in.

”Adoptive father has arrived!”

Zhao Song let out a long sigh of relief and then sheathed his waist saber. In his mind, as long as Chen Changsheng arrived, every problem could be solved!

”Meng Xikun?”

The five of them, led by Chen Changsheng, rode straight up to Meng Xikun. Chen Changsheng sat on his horse, his gaze sweeping over the gloomy-looking, gray-haired middle-aged man before him.

”That is correct. You must be the head of the Chen family?”

Meng Xikun’s expression turned ugly. He had originally thought the Chen family only possessed a single Innate expert, but who would have imagined that the Chen family had been hiding their strength? Once they played their hand, it was four Innate experts, plus a Essence Spirit capable of rivaling an Innate expert!

”Why aren’t you in your Longkou County, doing your job as an Immortal Official, instead of coming to this desolate wilderness?”

Chen Changsheng didn’t give Meng Xikun any Face at all, directly confronting him.

”You should know very well why I came here. Your Chen family snuck around and took someone else’s property; isn’t it normal for the owner to come looking for it?”

Meng Xikun snorted coldly. Although he was wary of the Chen family’s strength, he felt confident in his ability to retreat unscathed, so he spoke quite toughly.

”What do you mean ’stole’? Treasures in this world belong to those with the virtue to possess them. Can only you, Meng Xikun, conduct business? Why can’t our Chen family do the same?”

Chen Chuanwen had always been sharp-tongued; he retorted directly to Meng Xikun, making him gnash his teeth in anger!

”Hmph, your Chen family is impressive, but I, Meng Xikun, am no pushover. If I, Meng Xikun, am not involved in this business, your Chen family won’t be able to do it either!”

Meng Xikun said with a gloomy expression, then pointed his finger at the Chen family members and said in a deep voice:

”Longkou County is my territory. So what if your Chen family has five Innate experts? Once I return to Longkou County and mobilize the army, do you five really think you can contend with the military?”

”Don’t forget, I am an Immortal Official! An official appointed by the imperial court!”

Hearing Meng Xikun’s words, Chen Changsheng couldn’t help but sneer twice. He hadn’t expected that even after knowing the Chen family’s strength, Meng Xikun still wouldn’t yield and wanted to use the power of the imperial court to deal with the Chen family.

”Heh, the five of us Innate experts may not be able to deal with an entire army, but killing you is more than enough. You want to mobilize troops? Unfortunately, we won’t give you that chance!”

”Do it! Kill him!”

Chen Changsheng sneered as he spoke. Now that we are strong and the enemy is weak, there is no need to waste words with him; let’s settle this with our hands. In the world of Cultivators, strength has always been respected. Once life and death are decided, whatever power or influence you have will turn to ash!

”Good for you, Chen family, you actually dare to attack me? I am an Immortal Official of the imperial court; this is treason!”

Hearing Chen Changsheng’s reply, Meng Xikun couldn’t help but widen his eyes. His original intention had been to talk with Chen Changsheng and give the Chen family a share of the spirit crystal business; after all, given the Chen family’s strength, he had no choice but to concede!

He hadn’t expected Chen Changsheng to be even more ruthless! He wanted to keep his life here and swallow the spirit crystal business all by himself!

”Old dog! Die!”

Chen Chuanwu was always fierce and had long been unable to restrain himself from attacking. Now that he had Chen Changsheng’s permission, he immediately formed a spell seal, a layer of golden light enveloped his body, and he lunged at Meng Xikun with his iron spear!

”Immortal and Martial Dual Cultivation?”

Meng Xikun raised an eyebrow. Very few people continued to practice martial arts after starting to cultivate, so there were very few Immortal and Martial Dual Cultivators among Cultivators!

However, the strength of an Immortal and Martial Dual Cultivator was greater than that of an ordinary Qi Refining Cultivator. Even though Chuanwu was only at the Qi Refining Second Layer, when combined with his Innate martial arts strength, he was fully capable of battling Meng Xikun, who was at the Third Layer of Qi Refining!

”Fireball Technique!”

Meng Xikun reacted agilely, forming a spell seal and throwing a fireball at Chuanwu to prevent Chen Chuanwu from getting close and unleashing his martial arts prowess!

However, Steamed Bun, Chuanwen, and Chuanjie had already attacked him simultaneously!

Two blades and one sword, each flashing with long light, killed toward Meng Xikun. At this moment, he no longer had time to form seals or cast spells!

At the critical moment, Meng Xikun showed a pained expression. He pulled a yellow Talisman from his body and waved it into the air. The Talisman turned to ash, and a yellow light shield rose up around Meng Xikun!

”Damn it, wasting one of my Earth Shield Talismans! You all wait, I will definitely make your Chen family pay the price!”

Meng Xikun gritted his teeth and roared lowly. This single Talisman was worth a full ten thousand spirit crystals; it was his most valuable treasure. Now, to save his life, he had no choice but to use it!

Sure enough, a Talisman that cost a large amount of spirit crystals was indeed very useful!

The attacks from the three of them—Chuanwen and the others—all struck the light shield, failing to hit Meng Xikun inside. The light shield merely trembled slightly and dimmed a little!

Meng Xikun knew he could not defeat the Chen family members, so he turned to flee. The moment he turned around, a sharp claw slammed heavily into his body!

”Bang!”

Howling Heaven, who had been lying in ambush on the side, had achieved a merit. It seized the opportunity to strike Meng Xikun, who was about to escape the encirclement, back into the fray!

”Attack together! I don’t believe we can’t break this light shield!”

Seeing Meng Xikun knocked back, Chuanwen immediately called for everyone to charge up again!

Blade slashes, sword thrusts, and spear jabs—for a moment, the group’s combined assault rained down!

Meng Xikun was like a small boat sailing in a rainstorm, knocked about everywhere. The light shield on his body grew dimmer and dimmer, and it looked like it was about to shatter!

”You Chens, just you wait! I will definitely lead an army to wipe out your Chen family, leaving not even a chicken or dog alive!”

Seeing the critical situation and realizing his Earth Shield Talisman couldn’t hold on, Meng Xikun gritted his teeth and took out a cyan Talisman!

Fortunately, he had accumulated a large amount of spirit crystals from his smuggling business before, which was how he could afford this twenty-thousand spirit crystal wind control talisman!

”Bang!”

Meng Xikun’s light shield finally shattered under the group’s assault, and Meng Xikun took advantage of the final moment to activate the wind control talisman!

A gust of wind was seen swirling around Meng Xikun, and then, Meng Xikun actually rode the wind, floating up into mid-air!

”Haha, you can’t keep me today! Just wait for your Chen family to be exterminated!”

Standing in mid-air, Meng Xikun looked at the dumbfounded Chen family members and let out a long laugh. Although he had exhausted his family fortune today, as long as he broke out of the encirclement, that smuggling business would still be his, Meng Xikun’s!

The Chen family members looked at Meng Xikun in mid-air with ugly expressions. Their strongest were only in the Qi Refinement Stage and could not walk in the Void Realm; they could only watch helplessly as Meng Xikun fled!

Just when Meng Xikun was triumphant and the Chen family members were dumbfounded, Chuanjie quietly stepped forward. Catching Meng Xikun off guard, he threw the long sword in his hand, shooting it toward Meng Xikun!

The long sword was incredibly fast. It was almost upon him before Meng Xikun reacted. In a panic, he hurriedly dodged to the side, and just as he was about to evade it, the long sword actually turned in mid-air and headed straight for his neck!

”Puchi!”

The long sword slashed across, and a bloody gash immediately appeared on Meng Xikun’s neck, with blood spurting out!

”What sword technique is this?”

At the moment of death, shock still remained in Meng Xikun’s eyes. He could not imagine how a common mortal sword could be controlled at will like a Magical Artifact!

”A self-created sword technique—Hundred Step Flying Sword!”

Chen Chuanjie stood with his hands behind his back, watching coldly as Meng Xikun’s figure fell from mid-air, and said softly!
