Chapter 307 - 307 114 Killing Someone in Ten Steps_3

307: Chapter 114: Killing Someone in Ten Steps_3 307: Chapter 114: Killing Someone in Ten Steps_3 His Primordial Spirit swiftly formed seals, ready to unleash his most proficient life-saving Immortal Technique “Five Luo Light Smoke Secret” at any moment, while continuously calculating the opponent’s potential attack methods in the depths of his heart.

The old crone lowered her head to cough several times, and it seemed that something extra appeared in the palm covering her mouth.

Planning to use poison?

Li Ping’an instantly used mana to seal all the pores on his body.

The silhouettes of the two were about to converge.

Neither party’s footsteps changed, as if they were just two passersby walking forward.

Li Ping’an walked with his hands clasped behind his back, while the old crone leaned on a cane, coughing as she went.

Suddenly!

The old woman’s foot slipped, and she immediately began to fall forward.

Li Ping’an’s figure swiftly retreated!

The old woman paused, evidently not expecting to have been exposed, ‘She’ lifted her head to look at Li Ping’an, and her chest suddenly split open from within which a stream of blood light shot directly towards Li Ping’an’s face!

Within the blood light, the figure of the blood-robed elder emerged!

Two elite agents hiding in the shadows from Huan Valley hesitated for a moment, uncertain whether or not to step in and protect this Mo Wenqing.

The next instant, the situation reversed in a flash!

Li Ping’an raised his hands, seemingly striking out randomly, but from his palm flew dozens of tiny flying needles.

Pop pop pop!

The flying needles suddenly exploded, filling the area three meters around him with dense black smoke, completely isolating him from external probing!

A beam of Immortal Light burst from Li Ping’an’s wrist, and a Treasure Sword wrapped in Ice Blue Immortal Light sliced through the air with extreme speed!

The elder trapped in the blood light suddenly widened his eyes.

Only he could sense it.

Heavenly Immortal Dao Charm!

The spiritual pressure of a supreme-grade postnatal Spiritual Treasure!

Both erupted in that moment, like a thin thread, slicing into his blood light as easily as cutting through tofu.

The sword light flowed like water, and the elder within the blood light had no time to evade; the hand reaching forward split apart from the center.

He saw it.

A graceful figure flashed out from within the beam of Immortal Light, walking forward leisurely, her long dress undisturbed, her black hair not swaying, her hand casually drawing out a sword.

Following that, the Immortal Light returned to Li Ping’an’s wrist, once again transforming into that tiny jade bead.

It was Qing Su who made her move!

Li Ping’an maintained his retreating posture, moving beyond the boundary of the black smoke, closely followed by the figure of the elder.

The two elite agents from Huan Valley could only watch as this unfolded, just as they thought that this ‘Mo Wenqing’ was doomed, the body of the blood-robed elder in front trembled, a line of blood appeared on the palm, spreading from his palm, along his arm, and extending upward and downward from the front of his head at the one-third mark.

The elder’s body split into two halves, toppling to each side.

The blood directly formed into ice crystals.

Li Ping’an now held a pitch-black cloth bag in his hand, which he flung forward as if catching fish, scooping up the elder’s Primordial Spirit little person into it.

“To think that a mere True Immortal would attempt to ambush me?”

Li Ping’an spoke with composure.

He had no choice; he had to constantly maintain the arrogant persona of ‘Mo Wenqing.’

In the presence of those two elite Huan Valley agents, under the somewhat frightened gaze of a few low-ranking Qi Cultivators at the alley’s entrance, Li Ping’an took out a small porcelain bottle and poured two drops of black liquid from it.

The black liquid fell upon the elder’s corpse, and instantly blossomed into two black lotus hellfire, wrapping around the body.

Wisps of pure spiritual energy began to dissipate in all directions.

Li Ping’an snorted, flipped his sleeve to gather the Storage Treasures that appeared within the firelight, and turned to vault over the wall and leave.

Just as the two Huan Valley elites were about to continue following, they heard a voice transmitted to their ears:

“The two of you can stop watching now, come over and clean up these traces.”

The two female Heavenly Immortal looked at each other and did not pursue ‘Mo Wenqing’ any further; one of them revealed herself to extinguish the flames burning on the ground, scattering some powder on the earth before hastily departing.

Since their whereabouts had been exposed, there was no need to keep on tracking.

They also needed to quickly report the matter of Mo Wenqing’s counter-killing of the Blood Robed Daoist to Granny Yin Lin.

…

A few moments later.

In the secret chamber beneath the residence of Li Ping’an.

Qing Su released the Shape-Shifting Technique and stood to one side, wiping her Xingyin Sword and humming a ditty she had heard at the Drunken Moon Tower, utterly content.

Li Ping’an tossed the sealed Primordial Spirit of the Demon Cultivator to Elder Yansheng and said,

“Master has searched through it, an ordinary demon cultivator; the Blood Robed elder from the coming-of-age banquet, he has done his share of killing and looting before.”

“Elder, interrogate him further, and if there’s no news about the Blood Fiend Hall, just extinguish him directly.”

“Alright,” Elder Yansheng nodded.

Weiyanzi whispered, “Just kill him like this?”

“Otherwise?” Li Ping’an looked at his master’s beautiful face, “My master strikes with full force in a split second, and with the Xingyin Sword in hand, even ordinary Heavenly Immortals can’t withstand it.”

“Mm, mm.”

Qing Su nodded in approval.

Li Ping’an said sternly, “We can’t rest yet; the most suspicious is that Tuoba Han.

How about the others?”

Weiyanzi replied hastily, “Everyone else either played in the Drunken Moon Tower or went to other brothels.

As you said, I didn’t assign anyone to watch over that Xiaomianzi, but Xiaomianzi went to the brothel next door with the other two from the coming-of-age banquet, and they haven’t come out yet.”

“Tsk,” Li Ping’an shook his head lightly, “Even the Loose Cultivators with Spirit Stones and cultivation are really degenerating.”

Weiyanzi said earnestly, “They don’t have sect rules binding them; degeneration is quite normal.

We, upright gentlemen, are different!”

Meanwhile, Elder Yansheng, with a glum face, directly crushed the Primordial Spirit and opened his mouth to spew out a breath of true fire, burning the Demon Cultivator’s Primordial Spirit to ashes.

He sighed, “There’s no time to delay; let’s go capture that Tuoba Han!”

“No hurry,” Li Ping’an said with a smile, “It wasn’t easy for us to find this clue; wouldn’t it be a waste to just seize him?

Has Senior Xu Sheng arrived yet?”

“He arrived half an hour ago and is drinking tea upstairs.”

“Please trouble Master.”

Li Ping’an’s eyes flashed sharply, taking out his third-grade inspection token and handing it to his master:

“Go and call troops from the East Sea, the more, the better, and surround the Tuoba family’s cultivation residence with the fastest speed.”

“If any traces of demon cultivators are found within, regardless of whether they’re from the Blood Fiend Hall or not, capture them immediately and bring them back for my interrogation.”

“Anyone who resists fiercely and has committed excessive killings should be killed without discussion; I will bear all consequences.”

“Mm.”

With a Golden Immortal present, Qing Su did not say much further, drew the Jade Talisman into her hand, and with a flicker of her body, transformed into a butterfly, fluttering her wings and flying out of the secret chamber.

Seeing this, Li Ping’an felt quite gratified.

Master is now, beginning to get used to using the Shape-Shifting Technique combined with the Escape Technique.

Elder Yansheng asked, “Ping’an, what do we do next?”

“Elder, keep a close watch on that Xiaomianzi and wait for my signal.

I will take Senior Xu Sheng and another Heavenly Immortal elder to Tuoba Han’s residence,” Li Ping’an said with a smile.

“Next, we wait for the fish to take the bait.

“Blood Fiend Hall is rallying troops to come to Dong’an City; they should be meeting with that Blood Fiend foster son.

“We can’t directly confirm if Tuoba Han and his old sword servant have issues; don’t relax vigilance elsewhere.”

“If Blood Fiend Hall wants a battle, then we shall battle; Wanyun Sect is certainly not afraid of them, and the Eastern Alliance cannot stand idly by!”

Elder Yansheng and Weiyanzi rose to their feet and bowed in agreement.

Li Ping’an paused briefly but did not concern himself with such trifles.

It seems like, he’s starting to develop a bit of official authority.
