Chapter 250: Chapter 7 Lure and Kill!

In the stone house.

Liang Hui sat cross-legged on the bed, took out a jade bottle from his bosom, and exerted strength in his palm.

Bang!

The jade bottle shattered, and eight pale yellow pills floated in mid-air.

He opened his mouth to inhale, and the pills had already been swallowed.

The medicinal power of the Yellow Sprout Pill should have been gentle, but with all eight pills taken at once, it became volatile, wanting to rampage through his body.

Yet it was controlled in an instant, nourished his body continuously according to Liang Hui’s will, and made its way toward the Tao Foundation in his abdomen.

Above the Tao Foundation, silver light flickered incessantly as the second layer began to form.

As the refined medicinal power surged in, the speed of forming increased, and more mysterious and profound runes appeared.

Time passed slowly.

Silver light gradually emerged on Liang Hui’s body, becoming more mysterious and bright as time went by, clearly visible even in daylight.

The sun was high in the sky, and the time reached noon.

Liang Hui opened his eyes, feeling the two layers of the Tao Foundation floating in his abdomen, with a hint of satisfaction on his face.

He stood up, moving his body a few times, already adapting to the sudden increase in strength, and took steps forward, pushing open the door of the room.

He swaggered out of the manor, planning to take advantage of the time after the breakthrough to find items in the city that could be used for his dreams.

Thus, he could obtain a cultivation method for after the Foundation Establishment because he could not possibly pioneer it himself; it was too effortful and unappealing.

He left the manor without obstruction, unimpeded by anyone, all whom he met had submissive smiles on their faces.

Walking on the street, he elevated his perception to the maximum.

Step by step, he moved forward on the empty streets, the crisp sound of his footsteps especially clear.

There was nothing in the East City District, none in the Northern City District either, until he stepped into the Central City District where the City Lord’s Mansion was located, then his steps halted.

He perceived a special aura, though not of high essence, just at the beginning of the Foundation Building Realm.

He sidestepped, glanced at the courtyard ahead, then continued his steps again.

Suddenly, a somewhat familiar figure in red, a Great Han, appeared in his vision.

The Great Han, carrying a coffin on his back, walked on the street with a gloomy expression, heading straight towards Liang Hui.

Behind him followed a young man with a sad face.

When Liang Hui saw the man in red, the Great Han also saw the approaching Liang Hui.

The two stood facing each other, one with a cold murderous look and the other calm and composed.

"Qi Chao, you must have killed Xiao Qi," the young man said furiously, pointing and screaming at the man in front of him.

In Silver Rock City, other than the man in front, Jiang Qi had no grudges with anyone else.

The man was the murderer, this was his instinctive judgment.

"Heh!"

Liang Hui chuckled lightly and walked forward.

He swiftly passed the man in red with the gloomy expression and came beside the youth, then suddenly stopped, lowering his voice.

"A single strike to decapitate, his blood gushed several feet high," the playfulness and murderous intent in his voice drove the young man to madness.

His face twisted into an eerie ferocity as he launched his fist at Liang Hui.

"You deserve to die..."

Bang!

A fair hand pressed upon his skull.

The young man’s twisted and fierce face turned to blankness.

The next moment, blood and bone splattered in the air, scattering on the ground.

Liang Hui shook the blood from his palm and walked towards the Great Han in red.

"In Silver Rock City, anyone who dares to attack first may be counterattacked and slain."

"Instructor Jiang, you incited your companion to kill me, you’ve crossed the line."

Faint Moonlight Essence shimmered around his body, with silver radiance gathering in his palm to form a blade.

Instructor Jiang looked at the figure approaching him and the corpse on the ground, his body trembling with rage.

"Xiao Gou, ruthless, deserves to die."

Red flames surged around his body, then all converged into the extended palm, forming a nearly three-meter Fire Palm, slapping towards the front.

Before the Great Han in red could take another action.His palm throbbed with a stabbing pain as a glint of knife light sliced through the Fire Palm, appearing in his vision.

The knife light was as cold as the moon, cutting against the flames and sweeping across the red-clothed Great Han’s arm.

Amidst howling cries, it slashed towards his head.

Crisp snap!

With the retreat of the flames, a head rolled onto the ground, and the burly body slumped forward.

Blood sprayed across the street, leaving behind distorted paintings.

Liang Hui’s hand, holding a silver knife, gently lifted from the corpse of the red-clothed Great Han.

A shard of mirror leapt into his palm.

Sensing the special aura on the mirror piece, a trace of satisfaction appeared in his eyes.

This enemy wasn’t bad, contributing even in death.

Liang Hui placed the mirror piece into his chest pocket and dispelled the silver knife before turning his gaze to the corner of the street.

There stood a woman dressed in a black bodysuit, gazing at the corpse on the ground.

"Elder Yun Di, are you also out for a stroll?"

Liang Hui drew the Moonlight Essence into his body bit by bit, not the least bit concerned.

Yun Di looked at the figure standing amidst the bloodshed, pushing the shock from witnessing the fleeting aura out of her mind.

She took a step forward.

"Qingcang, why kill? Slaying is prohibited within Silver Rock City."

"Heh, didn’t the elder just see? Instructor Jiang ordered someone to kill me, and I was forced to fight back."

Liang Hui stared at the woman approaching, his expression indifferent.

Bending down, he searched the red-clothed Great Han’s body and took several wooden boxes.

"If there’s nothing else, I’ll be leaving now."

He turned around!

Heading in the direction of the Central City District.

"Qingcang, you have good talent, but this is Silver Rock City, the last refuge of the Human Race, and you cannot act so recklessly," Yun Di said earnestly, pointing at the remains on the ground.

By now, quite a few people had gathered around, watching the retreating figure with either curiosity or fear.

Liang Hui walked on, his stride firm, slowly disappearing from everyone’s sight.

Only a somewhat playful question reverberated in Yun Di’s mind.

"Merely good talent, I thought it was excellent."

Boom!

Cracks appeared on the stone slabs beneath Yun Di’s feet as she waved her hand forward.

Inky smoke spontaneously emerged, enveloping the remnants on the ground and quickly restoring cleanliness as if nothing had happened.

Yun Di also turned into a wisp of smoke, vanishing from sight.

....

Silver Rock City, the City Lord’s Mansion.

In the same secret chamber, Yun Di sat opposite the City Lord, who wore a feathered robe.

The City Lord’s eyes revealed barely contained shock as he listened to the woman recount the earlier events.

"You’re saying, Qingcang deliberately provoked and killed Jiang Huai and his nephew?"

"Elder Yun, you must know that Jiang Huai was at the second level of Foundation Building, and that boy only stepped into the Foundation Building Realm last night."

The City Lord extended his hand and tapped the table lightly, struggling to hide the shock in his eyes.

Yun Di’s face bore a bitter expression as she spoke.

"What if he has advanced to the second level of Foundation Establishment?"

"Half a day’s time?"

"Half a day’s time."

The City Lord took a deep breath, his eyes thoughtful as he recalled the knowledge in his mind, his fingers no longer tapping the table.

"He should study the ’Fiery Flame Dan Canon.’ Our Human Race is sure to gain another Core Formation practitioner, or even a breakthrough to renew the broken path and birth a Law Manifestation powerhouse."

"Too bad, the Tao Foundation is already set, it’s too late."
