Infiltrating the righteous path? Just another place to be a sycophant.

boom!

Lu An was immediately sent flying backward, landing on the ground where he used his sword to brace himself and managed to stand up.

"Elder Lu! Are you alright!?"

Elder Lu, how are you?

"Elder Lu...you..."

Everyone gathered around Lu An, offering their concern and asking what was wrong. Lu An waved his hand and said, "I'm fine... cough cough..."

"Fighting that old demon in the poisonous fog was quite an ordeal, especially since his moves were unpredictable and varied, so I didn't notice and got hit by his palm."

"Elder Lu, you are a sword cultivator, you could have taken him down with a single strike..."

"The poisonous fog affects my consciousness, I can't concentrate, so..."

Chapter 159 How Dared to Force a Kiss Me

Those around fell silent; it was indeed true.

They had just used their divine sense to search, but they hadn't found anything. The two were clearly fighting in that colorful smoke, but they couldn't detect anything.

Ao Lei and Tu Shanlu are the same.

They stared wide-eyed until their eyes were practically popping out, but still couldn't see anything clearly.

For a moment, they all wondered if there was something wrong with their divine sense, since they couldn't detect anything.

Perhaps this is what makes human cultivators so powerful.

They always have some strange and unpredictable tricks.

"Elder Lu, where did he go?"

"Oh no! He seems to have discovered the bracelet's use and is heading straight for the back mountain!" Lu An quickly put on his dramatic act, his expression one of utter panic: "Are you an elder of the Shi family? Quickly take me to the location of the secret treasure; that's probably his target!"

“How could that be? Even if it’s in the back mountain, how would he know exactly where it is… unless…” The elder glanced at Shi Zhenxiang, who was being held beside him, and instantly changed his mind. He said to Lu An solemnly, “Elder Lu, please come with me! We must stop that demon!”

"Oh my god! Waaaaaah!"

"Miss, wake up! Miss, wake up!"

"Miss Shi is really awake!"

"Young Master Chang is so lucky with women! So lucky indeed!"

Lu An turned around and saw an astonishing scene.

Suddenly, Shi Zhenxiang woke up and kissed someone on the lips.

I wonder who was so lucky.

Lu Anding took a closer look and exclaimed, "Good heavens, isn't this lucky guy Chang Yuqing?"

Was this guy forcibly kissed? Or was it Shi Zhenxiang who was forcibly kissed?

I never would have guessed this kid had this quirk.

I'm interested in this kind of stuff.

Unbelievable.

Perhaps this is the obsession with rich women.

After all, cultivating immortality requires a lot of resources. If one were to align oneself with the Shi family, an ordinary cultivator could practically take off.

The fact that few historians reach the Tribulation Transcending stage is due to a lack of talent, but it doesn't affect their abundance of resources, especially considering the vast territory established by their ancestor.

As the saying goes, "If you're willing to risk everything, ascension is just around the corner."

Many talented but poor young men also took the path of becoming live-in sons-in-law, and wealthy families were happy to take them in.

"Ah! Pervert! You filthy little thief, how dare you force a kiss on me! Take advantage of me!?"

Snapped!

Shi Zhenxiang, seeing how shameless the person in front of her was, actually slapped Chang Yuqing across the face.

At that very moment, not only Chang Yuqing, but everyone else was astonished.

No way, who forcibly kissed whom?

Chang Yuqing covered his face, feeling so wronged he almost cried. If a muscular man hadn't hugged him, he probably would have burst into tears.

"Don't cry, Xiao Yuqing, Brother Lun is here."

"Waaaaah, she said I took advantage of her. Who took advantage of whom, really?"

Chang Yuqing nestled in the strong man's arms, looking aggrieved, tears welling up in her eyes.

He's a handsome man, how could he have suffered such injustice? He was even looked down upon for not being as good as Lu An.

"Where is Elder Lu! Where is my Lu Lang!? Where is my Lu Lang!?"

"I've already gone through the wedding ceremony with him, where is he?! Where is he?!"

"Lu An! Elder Lu! Lu Lang! I want to have your children! Nine or ten! Come out now!"

Shi Zhenxiang completely ignored Chang Yuqing, who was so aggrieved that she wanted to cry, and instead got up to look for Lu An.

But it was not found.

Shi Zhenxiang, sporting a pig-like face, searched through the crowd. When the others saw her approaching, they involuntarily took several steps back, as if afraid of getting dirty.

These people looked disgusted, but Shi Zhenxiang didn't notice.

Aside from the fact that a few people looked quite interested, it seemed they were somewhat interested in Miss Shi.

"So beautiful...I love it..."

Someone muttered this in a low voice in the crowd, startling those around him who instinctively moved a few steps away.

The flavor is really strong, not just ordinary strong.

It's true that everyone has their own preferences.

"Gentlemen, there is no time to lose! We must not delay any longer! Quickly grab your weapons and follow me to capture the Yinshan Demon!"

Seeing that Shi Zhenxiang was about to arrive, Lu An quickly raised his Azure Sword and shouted loudly.

Shi Zhenxiang also heard the sound immediately and turned her gaze over.

Soon, she saw that tall, handsome figure, the lover of her dreams, Lu An.

"Elder Lu is right! Elder Lu, and everyone else, let me lead the way!"

The third uncle of the Shi family did not care about Shi Zhenxiang's awakening. The most important thing now was to stop the Yinshan Old Demon and prevent him from getting the secret treasure!

So Uncle San quickly took to the air and ran towards the back mountain of the Shi family.

"Elder Lu, Lu Lang, I'm here! I'm here..."

Shi Zhenxiang saw Lu An and was about to go to him when she was suddenly bumped by someone behind her, followed by the trampling of countless righteous people.

"Waaaaah! Help!...Waaaah...!"

"Oh dear, miss! Don't step on her! She's down there! Don't step on her!"

Xiao Lü saw Shi Zhenxiang being trampled on the ground by the crowd and hurriedly tried to stop them, but how could she, a small woman, possibly persuade these burly men? So she could only watch as Shi Zhenxiang was trampled on like a carpet.

Everyone rushed to get started, as if afraid of falling behind Lu An if they were too slow.

Everyone took off, while Shi Zhenxiang was covered in footprints and was unconscious.

"Miss! Miss! Miss, wake up!"

Xiao Lü looked at Shi Zhenxiang, who was almost crushed on the ground, and burst into tears.

After a while, Xiao Lü finished crying and found that no one was around. She looked around a couple of times, then got up and stomped on Shi Zhenxiang a few times before continuing to cry.

"Miss! Miss!"

…………

Third Uncle led Lu An to a cliff face in the back mountain. The group of people also descended, forming a large, dark mass that looked like a mafia.

"This is the entrance. Strange, it doesn't seem to have been opened before! The security measures are also very good!"

"Never underestimate the Yinshan Demon. He is cunning and treacherous. Who knows if he took advantage of the cliff face when it wasn't looking and tricked the cliff's security door?"

Lu An said with utmost seriousness.

Third Uncle thought Lu An was absolutely right, after all, he was a man who had fought the Yinshan Old Demon head-on and hadn't been at a disadvantage!

"But I can only open the first door. If I don't have the bracelet, I can't get into the other doors!"

"Don't panic, I'll take action!"

"Elder Lu, do you perhaps intend to force your way in?"

Third Uncle looked at the long sword in Lu An's hand with a hint of fear.

"What else can we do? Are we just going to wait for that old devil to take the treasure from inside?!"

"This... sigh... okay..."

Uncle San arrived at the cliff face, muttered something, and then the cliff face slowly parted, revealing a cave passage.

Everyone looked at the stone path with curiosity, and at the same time, the power emitted by the secret treasure also became stronger.

Then everyone's eyes turned dangerous again, as if they had been bewitched by something.

"Only Elder Lu may come in with me; everyone else, please wait outside!"

Seeing that things were not going well, the third uncle shouted at the others. The Shi family members were also very sensible, and soon a group of people surrounded them, separating them from the entrance of the cave passage.

Click! Click! Click!

Before anyone else could say anything, a series of sounds, like shattering glass, suddenly rang out.

At the same time, a dark cloud gathered in the sky, with dazzling lightning flashing within it and rumbling thunder.

Although the beam of light shot straight into the sky, it did not affect the condensation of the tribulation lightning in the slightest.

"Look! Someone is undergoing tribulation!"

Someone shouted, and everyone's attention was once again drawn to the sky.

However, the sound of shattering glass continued unabated. When Uncle San turned his head, he discovered that deep within the passage, the faint golden light shield was constantly appearing, and cracks resembling glass were emerging.

Clap!

The barrier shattered, and the thunderclouds in the sky began to gradually disperse.

"Oh no! The patriarch has been ambushed! The barrier is cracked!"

"The patriarch has been ambushed!?"

Before Lu An could react, his third uncle rushed inside.

…………

"You...you...why are you doing this..."

"Master, I'm so sorry, I'm the mole..."

Chapter 160 Serial Murder Case

The patriarch stared at the long sword protruding from his chest, his eyes filled with shock and disbelief.

How is this going?

"What...what are you doing?! Zhao Si!?"

The patriarch gripped the longsword thrusting into his chest with both hands, his eyes filled with disbelief.

"Isn't it obvious? I'm going to switch sides!"

Zhao Si urged the long sword in his hand, which continuously absorbed the true essence within the patriarch's body, as if trying to drain him dry.

"I've treated you well, why is this?! I'm just one step away from successfully transcending my tribulation, and you will be able to too..."

"You've treated me well? You've cut back on my spirit stones, cut back on my vacation time, made me on call at all times, and with only so many spirit stones a month, you expect me to risk my life? Is this what you call treating me well?"
