" Lv Ziqing, you..."
Ouyang Qian stared intently at Lv Ziqing, her eyes filled with endless sorrow. She and Lv Ziqing had been dao companion for many years and had always been very loving. She never expected that the first person to attack her would be someone she was closest to.
"Idiot!"
Lv Ziqing gave a mocking smile.
Bang!
The Flying Sword churned violently, and his heart exploded!
Ouyang Qian died on the spot.
Taking two Storage Ring from Ouyang Qian's hand, one of which belonged to Ouyang Qian herself and the other was left behind by the Ouyang Family's ancestor, Lv Ziqing glanced at Chen Shan, who was being forced into a perilous situation by the Three Talents Sword Formation, and a cold smile appeared on his lips.
He took Ouyang Qian's ring, then reached out and grabbed some blood from Ouyang Qian corpse.
Because the person had just died, the blood was still steaming.
"Hmph, as long as there's fresh blood, this Bloodline Imprint can be broken!"
Lv Ziqing smiled faintly, confident and composed.
He suddenly sat cross-legged on the ground, placed the Storage Ring on his knees, and then manipulated Ouyang Qian's blood, continuously casting Method Formula with his hands.
Seeing this scene, Chen Changming, who was constantly dodging in the distance, felt reassured and instantly felt relieved.
He was initially worried that with Ouyang Qian's death, it would be difficult to open the Storage Ring again. However, he didn't expect that Lv Ziqing was prepared all along; he was actually proficient in breaking Bloodline Imprint.
For a moment, Chen Changming also began to have some doubts about Lv Ziqing's identity.
Who is this person?
Judging from his actions today, he is definitely not an ordinary rogue cultivator!
It seems that Lv Ziqing had been lurking by Ouyang Qian's side, waiting for this very opportunity!
"Break!"
Lv Ziqing cast the final hand Method Formula, and a small ball of blood immediately lit up before plunging into the Storage Ring on his knee.
The Storage Ring also emitted a blood-red light.
In less than five breaths, a soft sound came from inside the Storage Ring, and then the crimson light disappeared.
"Hehe, it worked!"
Lv Ziqing smiled strangely, sent a Divine Sense to examine the Storage Ring, and a look of great surprise appeared on his face.
Ouyang Qian was not lying!
The Storage Ring contained many items, but the most precious Secret Method for breaking through to the Golden Core was hidden within!
He quickly withdrew his Divine Sense, put on the Storage Ring, and walked towards the Mei Brothers Trio.
After observing the situation within the sword formation, Lv Ziqing frowned and said, "This guy surnamed Chen is really troublesome. I'll lend you a hand!"
"Alright, better to avoid any unforeseen complications!"
A man in black robes nodded and said.
As soon as Lv Ziqing raised his hand, his whole body suddenly trembled, and he clutched his head with both hands, falling to the ground and rolling around. He only rolled a few times before falling silent.
"Oh no, an ambush!"
A man in black robes was shocked. In his haste, he raised his hand, and a black lotus flower flew out from his palm, then exploded in mid-air.
Just after he finished doing all this, he suddenly felt a sharp pain in the sole of his foot, and then a thin line pierced from the sole of his foot directly to near his heart. He screamed and collapsed to the ground.
The Three Talents Sword Formation immediately went out of control.
Chen Changming burst out from the gap in the sword formation, displaying the terrifying speed of a fourth-level Foundation Establishment Body Cultivator. In an instant, he rushed in front of a black-robed man and grabbed him by the neck.
Then, grabbing the man, he charged at the third man in black robes, unleashing a lightning-fast punch that shattered the man's chest!
Click!
The black-robed man in his hand had his head twisted off as well.
In the blink of an eye, he killed two Foundation Establishment Stage 2 cultivators.
Splash...
Eighteen longswords lay scattered on the ground.
The Silver Thread Heart-Devouring Insect flew out and returned to Chen Changming's wrist.
Chen Changming took out a Storage Bag, first collecting the three men in black robes and eighteen longswords, and then the corpses of Lv Ziqing and Ouyang Qian.
He then put the last dead White Tiger into his Beast Taming Bracelet.
These actions were performed in one smooth motion, cleaning up the entire scene thoroughly.
" Lv Ziqing should be a member of the Black Lotus Sect..."
Recalling the black lotus flower that exploded before a man in black robes died, Chen Changming immediately understood Lv Ziqing's true identity.
The Black Lotus Sect went to great lengths to obtain the Golden Core Breakthrough Secret Method from the Ouyang Family. On the surface, they sent people to relentlessly pursue and kill her, but in secret, they had already arranged for Lv Ziqing to infiltrate Ouyang Qian's side.
"This is not a place to linger."
Chen Changming's expression turned serious.
The fact that Lv Ziqing hired three members of the Black Lotus Sect to set up a sword formation in an attempt to kill him shows that the Black Lotus Sect must have obtained information about Lv Ziqing.
The black lotus shattered, which must have been the message that was sent out.
Before long, powerful figures from the Black Lotus Sect will descend upon the battlefield.
Therefore, he had to escape for his life.
Chen Changming turned around, activated the Dragon Glide Step, and quickly left the Demonic Qi Region. He then sped off in the opposite direction from Cuixia Mountain.
Several hours later, it got dark.
This made it much easier for Chen Changming to travel through the night.
He ran tirelessly for two days and two nights using the Dragon Glide Step, only stopping when his Spiritual Qi was almost depleted.
He was in a vast, dense mountain range, where human activity was rare and wild animals roamed the forests.
"This place seems somewhat familiar..."
After observing for a while, Chen Changming's expression became quite moved. In order to further confirm his thoughts, he used his physical strength to quickly cross several mountain peaks, and then a small mountain village came into view.
Wisps of smoke rose from the small houses.
"It really is White Ape Village!"
Looking at this familiar little village, Chen Changming was both surprised and delighted, and tears welled up in his eyes.
Chen Changming was originally from the State of the Chu Kingdom, and this was the place where he grew up.
He lost both his parents when he was three years old and lived with his grandmother. After his grandmother died, he became an orphan at the age of seven and wandered around.
"This place is indeed a secluded retreat."
After considering his options, Chen Changming decided to temporarily hide in White Ape Village for a while to avoid trouble.
He stole the Golden Core Breakthrough Secret Method that the Black Lotus Sect was about to obtain, which naturally aroused the wrath of the Holy Mother Wusheng. The Black Lotus Sect is probably now sending people to search for him extensively.
I will not rest until I find him.
Even if it means turning the entire Chu Kingdom upside down, we will never give up.
Chen Changming hid in the jungle, first changing into a set of gray coarse cloth clothes, then altering his appearance to become a middle-aged man of about forty years old, whose features vaguely resembled his younger self.
After completing his disguise, he took off his Storage Ring and Beast Taming Bracelet and stuffed them into his sleeve. After carefully checking them and finding no flaws, he went down the mountain.
They made their way to White Ape Village.
"Young man, you look unfamiliar. May I ask what brings you to my White Ape Village?"
Under an old locust tree at the village entrance, squatted a fifty-year-old man. He was thin and somewhat sleazy-looking, holding a pipe in his hand and puffing out smoke.
"You are... Brother Li Huai?"
Chen Changming composed himself, carefully observed the old man, and then, with a sudden thought, pretended to be very surprised and said...
Li Huai was a bit older than him.
When Chen Changming was a child, he was often bullied by Li Huai.
"You recognize me?"
Li Huai was quite surprised, shook his pipe, and began to carefully examine Chen Changming.
