With his cultivation at the 8th stage Condensed Soul Realm, he could already easily control someone so heartless and ungrateful. Moreover, with Junior Brother Lu Wuchen’s help, he had broken through to the 9th stage Condensed Soul Realm.
In just a few moves, Lin Tianyang was captured by Liu Ruoxi.
“Wuchen, how should we deal with this scum who harmed his fellow disciple?” Liu Ruoxi asked, pointing her sword at Lin Tianyang, who was tied up tightly on the ground like a rice dumpling.
“Take him back and hand him over to Law Enforcement Peak,” Lu Wuchen replied with a faint smile, glancing at Lin Tianyang’s wide, furious eyes. The Chosen One of Destiny? Heh. The dying buff didn’t activate. Without any life-threatening danger, let’s see how you turn disaster into fortune this time.
“Junior Brother Lin, I never expected you would go astray for such a small amount of money. If Qingxue finds out, what will she do?” Lu Wuchen sighed, putting on an expression of disappointment, as if lamenting wasted potential.
“Lu Wuchen, you bastard! I’ll kill you! I’ll slice you into a thousand pieces!” Lin Tianyang roared in fury the moment he heard Lu Wuchen call his mother Qingxue instead of Aunt Xue.
The name Qingxue was one only his father had ever used. Something must have happened between his mother and this man. Otherwise, how could she possibly receive 50 spirit stones every month?
At that thought, rage and venom surged through his heart. Lin Tianyang spat out a mouthful of blood and fainted the next second.
“That’s it? You fainted already? Boring. I was planning to tell you a big secret,” Lu Wuchen muttered, shaking his head at the unconscious Lin Tianyang.
“I think I know why Junior Brother Lin turned out like this,” Liu Ruoxi said thoughtfully.
“Oh? How so?” Lu Wuchen’s interest was instantly piqued.
“Last time I went to see you, you were in closed-door cultivation. So I chatted with your peach-like maid for a while,” Liu Ruoxi explained.
“She said that back then, because she was malnourished and couldn’t produce milk, and the old sow next door had just given birth.”
“So Junior Brother Lin grew up drinking the milk of the old sow next door.”
“Damn!” Lu Wuchen’s eyes widened in shock. He had never expected such explosive information hidden behind the story.
The two did not linger in Blackwater Forest. They quickly carried the unconscious Lin Tianyang back to Primordial Dao Holy Land.
Primordial Dao Holy Land, Law Enforcement Peak.
“Deacon Li, I’ll leave the rest to you,” Lu Wuchen said.
“Young Master Lu, rest assured. For a disciple who slaughtered fellow disciples to seize treasures, I will ensure the most impartial judgment,” the middle-aged man declared solemnly.
Earlier, through Lu Wuchen’s recording stone, he had already seen ironclad evidence of this disciple murdering his fellow sect members. As for where that recording stone came from, it was not something he needed to concern himself with. You are reading on g.com, the official source.
“I’ve long heard that Deacon Li is well-versed in the art of tea, so I specially brought 50 grams of Great Heaven Fragrance Tea. I hope Deacon Li can appraise it,” Lu Wuchen said with a smile as he slipped a small cloth pouch into the man’s hand.
When asking someone to handle matters, how could one not spend a little?
“Young Master Lu, I wouldn’t dare say I’m proficient. I’ve merely studied it somewhat,” Deacon Li replied calmly as he tucked away the Great Heaven Fragrance Tea.
Young Master Lu was the personal disciple of Peak Master at Heavenly Mystic Peak. His status was far above that of a mere jail-guarding deacon like himself. Moreover, this Great Heaven Fragrance Tea was a priceless treasure rarely seen on the market.
“Recently, the Holy Land has seen hundreds of cases of disciples dying tragically. The methods are identical to this culprit’s. Once I bring witnesses to confirm, the murderer will not escape justice,” Deacon Li assured.
“How secure is the prison? He won’t escape, will he?” Lu Wuchen asked.
“Young Master Lu, please rest assured. Even if he has just broken through to the Condensed Soul Realm, let alone an expert of the Immortal Realm, once inside, they must remain obediently confined,” Deacon Li said confidently.
Inside the prison, the formation had been personally set up by the Peak Master. How could anyone possibly escape? Unless money was sufficient. Otherwise, absolutely impossible.
“Thank you for watching over him, Deacon Li. But remember, do not act against him without authorization,” Lu Wuchen reminded.
“Understood. Everything will follow Young Master Lu’s arrangements.”
Lu Wuchen nodded and turned to leave Law Enforcement Peak.
In the dim, lightless prison cell, a man was cursing.
“Lu Wuchen, sparing my life will be the greatest mistake of your life,” Lin Tianyang growled, staring at the shackles before him through clenched teeth.
As long as he was still alive, one day he would repay today’s humiliation tenfold.
But his mother was still in that bastard’s hands. Thinking of her current situation made Lin Tianyang restless and frantic.
After venting for a few seconds, Lin Tianyang calmed his breathing and entered a state of cultivation.
“Young Master, you’re finally back. Qingxue was so worried,” Su Qingxue said anxiously as she rushed forward the moment she saw Lu Wuchen return.
These past few days without him had left her unbearably lonely.
“What, did you think your wise, heroic, charming, and elegant young master would fall to a few demonic beasts?” Lu Wuchen teased as he pulled Su Qingxue into his arms.
The fullness of holding her brought him great satisfaction.
“That’s not what I meant,” Su Qingxue murmured, rubbing her small head against his firm chest.
“If not for a beast delaying me for a few days midway, I would have returned earlier,” Lu Wuchen said casually.
“That damned beast dared delay Young Master’s return,” Su Qingxue said sweetly. “Now that Qingxue has begun cultivating techniques, if Young Master tells me to deal with any beast, I will act.”
Ever since the cold poison in her body had been treated by him, Lu Wuchen had given her many cultivation techniques and pills to assist her training. Who else in the world would treat her so well?
At first, she thought she would one day enjoy blessings from Yang’er, but in the end she realized Yang’er only relied on her. Looking at Young Master now, he asked for nothing in return and had even drawn the cold poison into his own body for her sake.
There was simply no comparison between people.
“Good. From now on, Qingxue will be my right hand, helping me resolve the most important matters in life,” Lu Wuchen said with a grin. “But first, let me check whether the cold poison in your body has fully cleared.”
“Young Master, Qingxue made dinner. Let Young Master check after we eat,” Su Qingxue said coquettishly, tugging at his arm.
“What did Qingxue prepare that’s even more important than treatment?” Lu Wuchen asked with curiosity.
“I specially made Nine-Layer Kidney Tower and Ten-Complete Tonic Soup for Young Master. Please try them first,” Su Qingxue said shyly.
“Nine-Layer Kidney Tower? Ten-Complete Tonic Soup?” Lu Wuchen froze for a moment. “Qingxue, are you sure you’ll still be able to walk next month after this?”
