The Confucian and Taoist Sages of Mortal Cultivation

Inside the room, Madam Yan and Madam Liu had adjusted their posture, sitting upright in their chairs, facing the door, their expressions serious.

Yang Qingyuan pushed open the door and entered. His gaze swept over the two young women, and he noticed that there was a lit red candle on the table between them.

The red candle burned silently, emitting a thin wisp of white smoke.

Yang Qingyuan twitched his nose slightly, sniffed twice, and said, "Ladies, this red candle must be made from the herbs 'Heavenly Daphne' and 'Nutmeg,' right? It can cause hallucinations and make people faint."

"If the two ladies intend to use this drug on Yang, they will likely be shooting themselves in the foot. It would be better to extinguish it to avoid any unpleasant incidents."

Upon hearing this, both Madam Yan and Madam Liu were startled and slightly moved.

Their original plan was to use their female identities to lower Yang Qingyuan's guard, and then use the incense from the red candles to knock him out.

Unexpectedly, the other party saw through their plan as soon as they entered.

The third wife, Liu, immediately became restless and flustered.

"Oh dear, I was confused and lit the wrong incense and candles, causing you to misunderstand, young man."

As she spoke, Liu leaned forward and blew out the red candle.

As she bent over, a glimpse of her fair skin was revealed, as if deliberately shown to Yang Qingyuan.

"I didn't expect you to know alchemy, young man." Liu smiled charmingly, her every move exuding a thousand kinds of charm.

"I only have a superficial understanding of everything," Yang Qingyuan said with a light laugh as he watched the other person extinguish the candle. "When I tell others that I only have a superficial understanding, they all think I'm being modest."

"Actually, I only have a vague understanding of it."

He had browsed through some introductory books on alchemy in the library of Tainan Valley.

Although it is an introductory text, it also records many low-level pill formulas, including those used by mortals and Qi Refining cultivators, such as the bewitching incense in this red candle.

"Oh? You seem to know a little about everything?" Liu looked at Yang Qingyuan, secretly activating the Heavenly Fox Technique, her eyes alluring, and asked, "Then, young brother, do you understand... women?"

"Don't you think I'm beautiful?"

Liu's voice was filled with a captivating and soul-stirring quality.

Upon hearing this, Yang Qingyuan looked closely.

Liu's eyes were sparkling, and her smile was as beautiful as a flower.

Immediately afterwards, Liu sat upright in the chair, slightly parted her legs, and said coquettishly, "Little brother, look at me, open your eyes."

"Look, I see your reflection in my eyes."

Yang Qingyuan remained calm and stood with his hands behind his back, exchanging a glance with Liu.

"what……"

Suddenly, Liu let out a painful wail, reached out and clutched her head, her whole body drenched in sweat.

Startled by this sudden scene, Madam Yan quickly asked, "Third Sister, what's wrong?"

Liu let out a long breath, calmed his inner strength, and said weakly, "My 'Heavenly Fox Technique' backfired at the crucial moment!"

A sense of unease washed over her as she involuntarily recalled the cultivator named Han Li from two months ago.

Han Li was only captivated by his own "Heavenly Fox Technique" for a few breaths before he awoke.

The white-robed youth before them was even more terrifying, completely ignoring the bewitching influence and even causing the "Heavenly Fox Technique" to backfire.

Liu was unaware that Yang Qingyuan possessed a righteous spirit, so even if a Foundation Establishment cultivator used seductive arts, they could not shake Yang Qingyuan's mind, let alone a mere mortal like her.

But she quickly realized, "Han Li is a cultivator, could this white-robed youth also be a cultivator?"

Thinking of this, Liu felt a chill run down her spine and quickly grabbed the wrist of the fourth wife, Yan, saying, "Fourth sister, this person has a powerful background. I'm afraid I can't help you."

"Whatever this person asks for, you'd better give in to him..."

Upon hearing this, Fourth Madam Yan's heart tightened. She understood that Yang Qingyuan's strength far surpassed that of ordinary martial artists, and could only steel herself and ask Yang Qingyuan, "May I ask what brings you here so late at night?"

"If there's anything we can do to help the Mo family, please don't hesitate to ask."

Yang Qingyuan waved his hand and explained, "Ladies, please don't be alarmed. I am not some ruthless old devil."

"I have come here simply to invite Madam Yan to accompany me to the Yan family ancestral home."

"What? The ancestral home?!" Upon hearing this, Madam Yan was filled with surprise and doubt.

Since marrying Mo Juren, she has never been back to the ancestral home, which has long since fallen into disrepair.

Madam Yan frowned, thinking to herself, "That ancestral home is in a remote location. If this person does something indecent to me there, I'll be left with no one to turn to."

Thinking of this, she felt a sense of resistance and was about to stall for time when she suddenly saw Yang Qingyuan's face darken.

"Oh no, is the other party going to resort to violence?" Yan's heart skipped a beat.

But Yang Qingyuan turned around and walked to the door, gazing at the Mo residence outside. Sensing the abnormal situation with his divine sense, he muttered, "What bad luck."

"How come everything happened all at once?"

When Madam Yan saw Yang Qingyuan suddenly turn around and look towards the door, she couldn't help but feel puzzled and also glanced outside the door a few times.

At this moment, the Mo residence was quiet and peaceful, with nothing unusual at all.

"Young man, what do you mean by this?" Madam Yan asked, her lips slightly parted.

But no sooner had he finished speaking than a strange thing happened.

"kill!"

"Charge in!"

"Not a single person, chicken or dog, will be spared in the entire Mo family!"

In an instant, flames erupted both inside and outside the Mo residence, and shouts of battle echoed from all directions.

Immediately afterwards, heart-wrenching screams and the clanging of weapons rose and fell in waves.

"Brothers, charge into the inner courtyard!"

"Let those seven lowly maids of the Mo family witness the power of my Iron Crotch Kung Fu!"

When Yan and Liu saw the towering flames, they were terrified and quickly leaned out of the window to look around. To their horror, they discovered that thousands of burly men dressed in five-colored short shirts were storming into the Mo residence from all directions.

These thousands of burly men were all highly skilled in martial arts, and the guards of the Mo family were no match for them. In a short time, their army collapsed like a house of cards.

"These people are from the Five Colors Sect!" Madam Yan exclaimed in shock, her whole body trembling uncontrollably. "How dare they come here to kill us?!"

Lanzhou has three major Jianghu gangs: Duba Manor, Five Colors Gate, and Jingjiao Society founded by Mo Mansion.

The three major gangs were irreconcilable enemies, each harboring hatred for the other, forming a three-way balance of power, with none able to subdue the others.

However, Yan and Liu were unaware that the Five Colors Sect was actually a Jianghu gang supported by the "Spirit Beast Mountain" immortal cultivation sect of the Yue Kingdom.

The Five Colors Sect is far stronger than the other two sects, but it has temporarily gone into hiding because it is worried that the Domination Manor will join forces with the Shocking Flood Dragon Society.

However, with the collapse of the Duba Manor and the breaking of the old order, the Five Colors Sect could no longer hold back and revealed its full strength. Tonight, they launched a surprise attack on the Mo Mansion, preparing to annihilate the Jingjiao Society in one fell swoop.

"So tonight is the end of the Mo family." Yang Qingyuan stroked his chin, lost in thought.

Just then, a series of hurried footsteps sounded, and two more beautiful young women burst into the room...
