Enduring humiliation for three years, seizing the elixir, the treasure, and the holy maiden.

Beneath that thin gauze skirt, her slender figure was perfectly proportioned, with plenty of curves in all the right places.

"Your judgment is indeed excellent."

"These two are incredibly young and fresh..."

"She's the most petite and delicate of women..."

The Nascent Soul female cultivator beside her covered her mouth and chuckled.

The rest breathed a sigh of relief and, led by the pavilion master, withdrew.

Su Chen lay down on the couch.

As for the matter of fusing supernatural powers...

There's no rush.

When will we return to Luoyan City and find a safe place to stay?

It's not too late to practice slowly.

However, looking at the two beauties in front of him, it was impossible not to be tempted.

One of them, in particular, looked remarkably like Wang Mei.

This inevitably reminded Su Chen of his spirit slave.

I didn't see my spirit slave when I returned to Luoyan City last time.

Perhaps out of consideration for personal relationships, they did not dare to seek refuge with the Holy Temple of Luoyan City.

I must have gone into seclusion in Luoyan City.

......

A gust of wind passed through the palace gate, stirring up a few withered leaves that had drifted in from who knows where.

The leaf twirled and fell back onto the threshold of the bluestone-paved hall.

The main hall of the Luoyun Sect is very magnificent.

However, the master sitting in this hall now is no longer the same one from back then.

Li Changfeng, dressed in a loose Taoist robe, leaned lazily against the main seat.

He held a cup of spiritual tea in his hand and took a sip.

That tea was freshly picked in Qingzhou, and it had a sweet aftertaste.

Li Changfeng placed the teacup on the table and waved his hand lazily.

below.

Only then did Xue Shazi dare to pick up the teacup and take a small sip.

The tea went down his throat.

Blood Fiend is a rough man who spends his days wielding swords and knives and is full of murderous aura.

I could actually sense a certain elegance about it, though I couldn't quite put my finger on it.

However, now I'm sitting right under Li Changfeng.

He couldn't muster even a trace of the ferocity of Bloodthirsty Butcher.

"What happened?"

Li Changfeng spoke, his tone lazy, yet carrying an undeniable weight.

"How much time has passed?"

"I require you to find the place where the spiritual veins of the Black Mountain Continent converge within a hundred years."

"It's still early."

"But why is it that there hasn't been any progress at all?"

Blood Fiend's back hunched over.

He forced an awkward smile onto his face.

"To be honest, senior."

"Recently, an uninvited guest has arrived on the Black Mountain Continent."

"He is a cultivator at the early stage of the Void Refinement realm."

"But this person severely injured Ancestor Demon Cloud and severed one of his arms."

"At this moment, Fairy Lu Yao is entertaining this person."

"There are three Void Refinement cultivators on the Black Mountain Continent, and Ancestor Demon Cloud is in seclusion recuperating from his injuries. Lu Yao is also unable to leave."

"So only I, the junior, am left to serve you, senior."

"As a result, the progress naturally slowed down."

Xue Shazi paused here.

She looked up and quickly glanced at Li Changfeng.

"This junior has come."

"I also wanted to see what the senior thought."

"Regarding this person..."

"Yes, bring him under your command."

"still......"

That couldn't be clearer.

Either we take this person in, or we recruit him.

Alternatively, we can ask Li Changfeng to personally take action and eliminate this person.

Li Changfeng didn't take it seriously at first.

He's just a cultivator in the early stages of the Void Refinement realm.

In his eyes, who was at the Mahayana stage, it wasn't even a ripple.

At this moment, Li Changfeng naturally did not know that the person was Su Chen.

Li Changfeng picked up his teacup, took another sip, and casually prepared to dismiss the conversation.

But then...

Blood Fiend's next words made Li Changfeng's hand freeze in mid-air.

"Actually, I shouldn't have troubled you with such a trivial matter."

"However, this person is only at the early stage of the Void Refinement realm."

"Yet it possesses the strength to crush even those in the mid-stage of the Void Refinement realm."

"Moreover, this person has inextricable ties with the forces of the Xuanhuang Continent."

"It is said that they are from Luoyan City on the Xuanhuang Continent."

"He is the Grand Elder of Luoyan City, named... Su Chen."

"I fear I might act rashly against this person."

"It will attract attention from the Xuanhuang Continent."

Su Chen.

Li Changfeng's fingers, which were holding the teacup, twitched slightly.

The tea in the cup sloshed around.

Li Changfeng's eyes narrowed.

It was this kid.

A vague feeling welled up in Li Changfeng's heart.

Back then, I traveled to the mortal realm and returned to the Luoyun Sect.

At that time, Su Chen was just a true disciple in the Foundation Establishment stage.

His qualifications are not bad, though.

But compared to Wang Mang, he was ultimately a step behind.

Li Changfeng took Su Chen as his disciple, originally because he was interested in Su Chen's body.

The cultivation method that suits one's practice in the spirit world.

Only then did he accept the true teachings.

Now, only a few decades have passed.

This kid has actually stepped into the Void Refinement stage.

He was even able to severely injure a mid-stage Void Refinement cultivator while still in the early stages of cultivation.

This was beyond Li Changfeng's expectations.

Li Changfeng put down his teacup, leaned back in his chair, and slowly stroked the patterns on the armrest.

in fact.

Li Changfeng no longer needs Su Chen's body.

He had already prepared a furnace cauldron that was more suitable than Su Chen.

All that remains is for the sources of those three great spiritual veins to converge into one furnace.

But Su Chen was, after all, his own true disciple.

He himself passed on his own sword technique, the Falling Clouds Piercing the Sun, to this kid.

Li Changfeng's feelings towards this disciple.

Deep down, he still harbored a few traces of affection that even he himself was too lazy to examine in detail.

now.

This kid has entered the Void Refinement stage.

That's exactly when it comes in handy.

That's how it is.

Why not bring them under our control?

A disciple at the early stage of the Void Refinement realm can easily overwhelm a disciple at the middle stage of the Void Refinement realm.

He took on the task of finding the spiritual veins for himself.

Indeed, he's quite skilled.

Li Changfeng had the idea of ​​meeting him.

"This matter."

Li Changfeng spoke up.

"You go ahead, don't worry about it."

"Let Su Chen stay with Lu Yao for a while."

"I estimate that we will be able to find the source of the spiritual vein in Qingzhou within the next few days."

"Let's sort things out here."

"I will personally go to the Black Mountain Continent."

Blood Demon Child, listen up.

My heart skipped a beat.

I'll go there myself.

These words reached the ears of Blood Fiend.

The meaning couldn't be clearer.

Senior, this is...

I must personally take action and eliminate Su Chen.

A cultivator at the early stage of the Void Refinement realm was able to severely injure a cultivator at the middle stage of the Void Refinement realm.

Keeping it will ultimately be a disaster.

It seems the senior is going to personally take action and nip the problem in the bud.

Blood Fiend didn't dare to ask any more questions.

He bowed and clasped his hands in greeting.

"Junior understands."

Having said that, he bowed and walked out of the main hall step by step.

A ray of blinding sunlight; in this scorching heat, it's unbelievable.

Even someone with Xue Shazi's cultivation level felt a surge of heat.

A spiritual force protected his body, resisting the heat wave.

Speaking of which, Li Changfeng's words just now led Xue Shazi to conclude that the senior intended to eliminate Su Chen personally.

...
