In a mountain valley hundreds of miles away from Jade Moon Lake.

A man in a black robe with long hair landed by the ditch.

With a cracking sound, the man's appearance and physique changed, transforming him into a gentle and handsome young man.

He took off his long black wig and prepared to throw it away.

After thinking about it, he put it back into his Storage Bag.

Lan Chang'an threw the black robe, stained with demonic energy, into the ditch, where a flame ignited.

"Second-Order Demonic Qi Talisman —there probably aren't many righteous Talisman Master in the Liang Kingdom who know how to use it, right? Combined with the Divine Sense control of Foundation Establishment Late Stage cultivator, it should be enough to scare some kids."

"It's better to be a Demonic Path cultivator; killing doesn't require much logic."

Lan Chang'an chuckled softly.

In Great Kun's Previous Life, there was a strange-looking Evil Cultivator.

This Evil Cultivator once encountered a female cultivator on the road, and killed her simply because she glanced at him.

And one more time.

This same Evil Cultivator encountered a male cultivator on the road, but the man didn't even glance at him.

He felt displeased and killed him as well.

This is why Lan Chang'an disguised himself as Demonic Path cultivator to kill people.

Liang Shaotian was also a person of unpredictable temperament, and was notorious in the Liang Kingdom, with numerous crimes added to his name by the sect.

The list of crimes is endless: raping and murdering female cultivators from sects, wiping out entire families, torturing the elderly and children...

Anyway, I'm not afraid of being bitten by lice.

What's wrong with letting him take the blame for me?

Lan Chang'an felt it wasn't safe to kill Huang Yu secretly, as the Huang Family might still suspect him.

It's different when someone takes the blame.

Lan Chang'an knew some rumors and information about Liang Shaotian.

It is said that this child received the Demonic Path inheritance from ten thousand years ago, and in recent years he has also used Divine Sense sense techniques.

Liang Shaotian possesses exceptional speed and Movement Method, and has a proven track record of killing people by snapping their necks at close range.

Lan Chang'an's <Cloud Sand Body Refinement Technique> also emphasizes speed in its physical techniques, making it highly imitable.

"The Soul Imprint from the First Life should recover within two months."

Lan Chang'an's consciousness entered the Nine Imprint Tablet.

Within the first frame, the Clear Handsome Man appeared lifeless and gloomy.

Just now, in order to bring his Divine Sense to the Foundation Establishment Late Stage, he summoned the Soul Shadow his First Life's soul to further enhance his Divine Sense.

After advancing to the Foundation Establishment Realm, the soul projection from the First Life can no longer be considered a trump card, but only a temporary advantage.

After all, his current cultivation level and methods completely surpass those of his First Life.

If the Second Life at the Peak Core Formation could be activated, that would be the true trump card.

Jade Moon Lake, the residence of the Mu Family.

The vortex of Spiritual Qi Moon Heart Island suddenly collapsed and dissipated.

This scene caused both the cultivators from the Mu and Huang Family to pause in surprise.

The Huang Family members were overjoyed and stopped their attack.

"Haha! The Jade Moon Lake Mu Family has incurred the wrath of both heaven and man; their fate is sealed!"

Huang Tankong stood with his hands behind his back, his deep laughter echoing through the sky.

"Hehehe... I gave you all a chance, and you didn't even know how to live up to it. The dignified head of the family? You should go back to raising pigs!"

The beautiful woman in the lotus-patterned dress, "Huang Yingchun," let out a soft, mocking laugh that echoed down upon the Mu Family's residence below.

The Mu Family rebuilt their house, their faces grim, and they remained silent.

Morale was low, and their expressions were gloomy.

"Ren Longbo, I'm so sorry, everyone."

A hoarse, weak voice came from the Secret Chamber of the cave.

"Sigh, we were still a bit too hasty."

Mu Renlong was disappointed and sighed with regret.

He watched the entire process of Mu Chengji's attempt to reach the Foundation Establishment.

The Huang Family's interference ultimately had some impact.

Mu Chengji's mindset was unstable, and he rushed things at the last moment, leading to his failure to Foundation Establishment.

Compared to the previous patriarch, Mu Maode, Mu Chengji lacks experience and the composure of a great general.

Moreover, he was under considerable psychological pressure.

This Foundation Establishment embodies the collective effort of the entire clan and reflects the high hopes placed upon the ancestor, including Mu Xiuyun's voluntary relinquishment.

To break through under such immense pressure, and with external interference from hostile forces, is truly remarkable.

Mindset has a significant impact on breaking through bottlenecks and even reaching higher levels of achievement.

When Li Erqing attempted to break through to the Foundation Establishment, his mental state was completely different.

The Foundation Establishment Pill was practically free.

Given his qualifications and background, he wouldn't feel any psychological burden even if he failed to break through.

Whoosh! Whoosh!

A sharp whooshing sound came from near Jade Moon Lake.

"Ancestor! Something terrible has happened!"

Two Huang Family cultivators flew over anxiously.

"What's the panic! In the face of important matters, one must remain calm!"

Huang Tankong reprimanded him with a stern face.

Just when I was in a great mood, I was affected by those two impetuous boys.

"Ancestor! The Fourth Elder, he..."

One of the cultivators transmitted his voice.

"What!"

Huang Tankong's expression changed drastically as he stared at him in disbelief, his eyes flashing with a chilling light.

Above Moon Heart Island.

A scene unfolded that surprised and puzzled the Mu Family cultivators.

Whoosh whoosh!

Huang Tankong and Huang Yingchun, both Foundation Establishment cultivators, suddenly changed their expressions. Without saying a word, they led the Huang Family cultivators and hastily flew away.

What happened at the Huang Family?

The cultivators of the Mu Family were completely baffled and utterly confused.

Mu Renlong and Li Erqing looked at each other in bewilderment.

The Mu Family's residence is located a hundred miles away, near a mine.

Looking at Huang Yu's dismembered body.

The two Foundation Establishment Ancestor of the Huang Family, along with a group of high-ranking Lineage, all had gloomy expressions.

The atmosphere was eerily quiet.

"Are you sure the murderer is Liang Shaotian?"

Huang Tankong's face was gloomy, and his voice was hoarse as he looked at the four Qi Refining Late-Stage from the Huang Family.

"Explain the situation clearly, down to every detail."

"Yes, Ancestor."

Four Huang Family cultivators, after exhausting all their knowledge, uncovered the truth.

"You're saying that the Fourth Elder was killed instantly with a single blow, without any power to resist?"

Huang Yingchun's face turned pale, and she questioned him in surprise and doubt.

"Yes, there was no fighting."

The four Huang Family cultivators unanimously agreed with this.

Huang Tankong and Huang Yingchun looked at each other, their eyes filled with undisguised shock.

He instantly killed Huang Yu was at the third level of Foundation Establishment, with a single strike.

Such methods can eliminate the Jade Moon Lake Mu Family as a first option.

Huang Tankong, Foundation Establishment Middle Stage, might be able to easily crush Huang Yu, but he cannot kill him instantly with a single blow.

Only major repairs in the Foundation Establishment Late Stage are possible.

If the Mu Family had a powerhouse of this caliber, how could they have been suppressed and beaten by the Huang Family for so many years?

The Mu Family's energy was all focused on Foundation Establishment, leaving them with no spare capacity.

"Liang Shaotian made a public appearance several years ago, already possessing the Foundation Establishment Late Stage stage."

Huang Yingchun murmured.

"Before Liang Shaotian left, he seemed to have said something."

One of the elderly monks hesitated before speaking.

"What nonsense!"

Huang Tankong stared intently at him, his eyes sharp.

He said, "Dare you even glance at me?"

The elderly monk spoke with a bitter expression.

The two Foundation Establishment cultivators and the Huang Family members all had blank expressions.

"Just because I glanced at him?"

Huang Tankong a deep breath, veins bulging on his forehead.

The Huang Family cultivators were furious, feeling contempt and insult from those who were above them.

There was also a deep sense of fear and helplessness.

Such Evil Cultivator and demonic cultivator is capricious in nature; any thought that arises could lead to a massacre.

The cause of Huang Yu's death sent chills down the spines of all the cultivators, who only wished they would never encounter him again.

After committing the murder, which direction did Liang Shaotian go?

Huang Tankong seemed to realize something, his expression changed again, and he asked seriously.

The Huang Family cultivators realized something and felt uneasy.

"They went Northern Region," the old monk replied.

Whew~

The Huang Family cultivators breathed a sigh of relief, their palms sweating profusely.

Heading north is the direction of the Black Mist Mountain Range.

Maple Leaf Huang Family is located in the southern part of Jade Moon Lake, not in the same direction.

Several days later.

News of Huang Yu's death reached the Jade Moon Lake Mu Family.

This news was exhilarating and dispelled the gloom surrounding the Mu Family's failed Foundation Establishment attempt.

Admittedly, the Mu Family has not produced a single Foundation Establishment cultivator.

However, the Maple Leaf Huang Family lost a Foundation Establishment cultivator, who was also their youngest.

The power gap between the two races actually narrowed.

Jade Moon Mountain Villa, a lakeside courtyard.

"It's so lively!"

Hearing the cheers outside, Lan Chang'an stretched and walked into the courtyard.

Not long after, Li Erqing came to visit and shared the good news.

Li Erqing knew little about the details of Huang Yu's death.

The Maple Leaf Huang Family all gave the same story: the murderer was Liang Shaotian.

The only detail is that it was a one-hit kill.

After asking, Lan Chang'an chuckled to himself.

Neither the Huang Family nor the Mu Family could have imagined that the real murderer would be an elderly man in his seventies who had just entered the Foundation Establishment.

Common sense dictates that an elderly person who has reached the Foundation Establishment not only has low potential but also cannot match the combat power of a cultivator who has reached the Foundation Establishment in their prime.

The Huang Family never even considered Lan Chang'an.

Not only that, Lan Chang'an also created an alibi; the Illusion Truth Talisman in the room could only be detected by Foundation Establishment cultivator approaching it.

The Huang Family's mole within the Mu Family provided intelligence that Lan Chang'an has been staying at the Mu Family recently.

"It's laughable that when a Foundation Establishment from the Huang Family was killed, they only dared to offer token condemnation, not even daring to utter a harsh word. The indignant young cultivator from the Huang Family was given a verbal warning and had his speech restricted."

Li Erqing wore a mocking smile.

Lan Chang'an's eyes flickered slightly, guessing that the Huang Family was quite frightened by the words "Dare to look at me even once more".

After Li Ergou left.

Lan Chang'an examined the spoils in his Storage Bag, a wide smile spreading across his face as he expressed his delight.

Before returning to the Mu Family, he cleaned Huang Yu's Storage Bag, eliminating anything suspicious.

This former young master of the Huang Family contributed more than two thousand Spirit Stone and three High-Grade Magic Item, all of which were exquisite.

There was a large quantity of other Law Artifact, elixirs, Talisman, materials, and other supplies.

Lan Chang'an sold Foundation Establishment and received 5,000 Spirit Stone, which has greatly increased his net worth.
