Exterminating the Sect

Chii!

The crescent-shaped green Wind Blade glided through the air for over thirty yards like a swift swallow, and in the blink of an eye, it sliced across the neck of the third brother, who was frozen in place.

With a muffled thud, His head buzzed, and his consciousness plunged into chaos. The third brother couldn't react at all before his head tumbled to the ground.

His headless body still stood in place, blood gushing from his neck.

At the entrance of the main hall, Shen Changchuan's figure had appeared silently at some point.

He held the Soul-Snatching Bell in his left hand and Zhao Hantao's body in his right.

As he looked at the Soul-Snatching Bell in his hand, a flicker of joy flashed in his eyes.

This was truly a supreme weapon for combat.

In just an instant, The third brother, who was at Qi Gathering Fifth Level, couldn't react at all before he was easily killed by his attack.

Although the process consumed a great deal of Magical Power.

But with such a magic item, Below the late Qi Gathering stages, He doubted many people could be his opponent!

Simply invincible!

Satisfied, Shen Changchuan retracted the Soul-Snatching Bell into his sleeve.

He carried Zhao Hantao's body in his right hand and walked into the main hall, Throwing him onto the ground.

"Did you see clearly just now? The deaths of these people, and the severe damage to Zhao Family Village, seem to have been caused by those 'guests' you invited."

As he spoke, A faint trace of mockery appeared at the corners of Shen Changchuan's mouth.

"Inviting wolves into the house, bringing disaster upon yourself. Old Brother Zhao, I must say, your move truly amazes me."

At this moment, the battle twenty miles away in the forest

Had already passed for half an hour.

Half an hour ago, After clearing the battlefield, Shen Changchuan did not immediately return to Great Bay Village. Instead, he found a hidden corner nearby to meditate and recover his Magical Power.

To recover his Magical Power as quickly as possible, Shen Changchuan even consumed all the spiritual energy from two spirit stones.

He finally recovered eighty to ninety percent of his Magical Power, And his mental fatigue also recovered significantly.

His combat strength was thus restored.

At that time, Initially, Shen Changchuan had planned to take Zhao Hantao back to Great Bay Village and then extract information from him about the people who had ambushed him.

But later, he quickly realized something.

During the course of the battle, The scarred-faced man had clearly called out to the fourth brother, who was the weakest at Qi Gathering Fourth Level.

There were three people, so why was the youngest referred to as the fourth?

Did this mean, They had another accomplice ranked third?

The thought struck him, And Shen Changchuan became restless.

Who knew if this failed assassination attempt, if any escaped, Would cause trouble later?

Moreover, although Zhao Hantao's Zhao family immortal sect was small, they had operated Zhao Family Village for many years, and they should have accumulated some wealth.

For Shen Changchuan, who was currently penniless, It was best not to waste it.

Thus, Shen Changchuan turned and headed towards Zhao Family Village with Zhao Hantao.

And when they were still a few miles away from Zhao Family Village, He could see black smoke rising from the direction of Zhao Family Village from afar.

After quickly approaching, He indeed found that more than half of Zhao Family Village had already turned into ruins, with flames burning fiercely.

Considering that he would need to extract information from Zhao Hantao's mind later, Shen Changchuan woke him up with cold water, making him witness the scene before his eyes, hoping to plant a seed in his heart.

Afterward, with the help of the Spirit Eye Technique, Shen Changchuan followed the killer's tracks all the way to the main hall in the center of the village.

He also happened to witness the third son stabbing Zhao Jingming to death with his own eyes.

"Brother Zhao, as the saying goes, every wrong has its source, and every debt has its debtor. That person killed your son, killed many of your family and friends, and destroyed your village. Such a great revenge, I have now avenged it for you."

"In return, I want to know the identities of these people and the reasons why they attacked me. This is not too much to ask, is it?"

Shen Changchuan said in a low voice.

However, Zhao Hantao did not respond.

At this moment, Zhao Hantao was staring blankly at Zhao Jingming's corpse not far away.

His eyes were vacant, He knelt beside Zhao Jingming's body, images of the village littered with corpses constantly replaying in his mind, muttering words like "sin, all sin."

At this moment, the man looked like an old man in his sixties, about to die of old age.

As if the last breath he was holding had completely dissipated.

Shen Changchuan glanced at him.

He didn't say anything more to provoke him.

This was also a good thing for Shen Changchuan.

This way, his psychological defenses would collapse, and it seemed like he would be able to dig out more things after returning.

This was quite good.

Zhao Hantao's dantian had already been crippled, and he couldn't make much of a splash. Shen Changchuan no longer cared and left him there.

He walked out of the village hall, his figure gracefully ascending into the air, standing at the highest point.

Facing the raging fire in the village and the deathly silent forest in all directions, he shouted:

"I am Shen Changchuan, the Guardian Immortal Master of Great Bay Village. The villains who attacked the village have all been executed. Villagers, quickly return and deal with the aftermath of the village!"

With the aid of Magical Power, Shen Changchuan's voice echoed through the forest and even produced an echo in the vast mountain valley.

Shen Changchuan shouted three times.

However, obviously, after experiencing such a terrible disaster, not many of those who were lucky enough to survive dared to come forward.

Fortunately, just as Shen Changchuan was becoming impatient, a few people finally emerged from the woods one after another, then, more and more people came out.

With muffled cries, they began to tidy up the devastated Zhao Family Village.

Afterward, Shen Changchuan selected a new acting village chief from the first few people who emerged that day.

He instructed them to temporarily handle the affairs of Zhao Family Village, and to stabilize the situation for the time being.

At the same time, he also sent someone to Great Bay Village to deliver a message, asking his maternal grandfather, Han Qinhu, to bring some people here.

After this disaster, Zhao Family Village suffered heavy losses, and that third brother was also extremely ruthless.

Those with direct blood ties to the Zhao family, a minor cultivator family in Zhao Family Village, had all been killed.

It could be said their entire lineage was wiped out.

As a result, Zhao Family Village was now masterless.

After all, it was two mu of spirit fields.

Since they were now being delivered to him for free, Shen Changchuan naturally had no intention of giving them up.

He had Han Qinhu bring people over, intending to establish actual control over the area.

"Since Zhao Hantao dared to scheme against me, and now that I have successfully counter-killed him, these assets should rightfully be my spoils of war!"

Even though Zhao Hantao was not dead yet, Shen Changchuan felt he had no qualm about occupying Zhao Family Village's two mu of spirit fields.

Who told Zhao Hantao to collude with outsiders to kill him?

He failed to kill him, but was instead counter-killed by him.

Everything on his person naturally became his spoils of war.

"However, the inside story of this matter is unknown to outsiders."

"To prevent rumors from spreading, I need to use facts to silence the public!"

A gleam flashed in Shen Changchuan's eyes.

He thought of the three corpses in his storage bag.

Initially, he had put the three corpses into his storage bag on the off chance.

If Zhao Hantao refused to talk, he could still track their origins by their appearance.

But now, there was clearly a better use for them!

Immediately, Shen Changchuan issued another order, telling his subordinates to send people to contact the cultivators in charge of the six villages under Great Bay Village, asking them to come to Zhao Family Village as soon as possible.

The corpses of the enemies who attacked him, the tragic state of Zhao Family Village, the culprits, the truth would all be laid bare before others.

"Witnesses and evidence are all present."

"With this, some people might still have doubts, but it won't be a big problem. Most people will accept this outcome."

"And there won't be much issue with me acquiring these two mu of spirit fields."

Shen Changchuan mused to himself.
