Chapter 454: Chapter 454: Lu Chen Kills Another, Luring the Remaining Cultivators Away!

The Heavenly Inquiry Spear traveled at an incredibly fast speed, arriving in an instant.

But the female cultivator, as a proud daughter of heaven from the Spirit Sound Sect, swiftly regained her senses.

Sensing the terrifying aura behind her, she couldn’t completely dodge and instead quickly stepped to one side!

Crack!

The Heavenly Inquiry Spear didn’t hit a vital part, instead drilling through her shoulder blade with a crisp sound!

"It was you who killed our junior sister!"

The face of the female cultivator nearly contorted in rage, one hand clutching her wound while she silently recited a spell!

A jade-green flute flew out from her waist, positioning itself beside her mouth!

In the Spirit Sound Sect, all spells are focused on the art of melodic rhythms!

Lu Chen didn’t know what this female cultivator was capable of, but he was certain that he couldn’t let her cast her spell with ease!

His gaze hardened, knowing that controlling the Heavenly Inquiry Spear from afar wouldn’t be powerful enough without the ability to infuse the spear with Five Elements Spiritual Power.

Since that was the case, he would strike her down while she was weak!

Lu Chen sprung forward, taking large strides and rushing forth like a hunting cheetah!

"Spiritual Fire!"

At that moment, the only killing method he could think of was to incinerate her flesh with the power of Spiritual Fire!

"Die!"

Lu Chen’s pace was swift, and as he bellowed in anger, his fists were already covered in flames.

Whoosh!

The flames quickly enveloped the female cultivator’s body!

A sharp scream arose, but she began to play her Soul Capturing Spirit Flute!

Soul Capturing Spirit Flute, Lu Chen instantly felt dizzy and disoriented but, fortunately, there was no melody to it, and he quickly regained his senses!

Looking intently, the power of the Spiritual Fire had already spread, climbing swiftly from his punch to envelop her entire body!

In the blink of an eye, the female cultivator had turned into a human torch!

The power of the Spiritual Fire was formidable indeed.

Even though she was a proud daughter of heaven, she was still at the Foundation Establishment Stage and specialized in Spirit Sound techniques, with absolutely no ability to resist Spiritual Fire!

Amidst her screams, the female cultivator eventually fell.

But the Spiritual Fire did not subside.

Until she was reduced to a pile of ashes!

Just like her junior sister before her.

Lu Chen did not reach into the pile of ashes to retrieve the Spirit Sound jade flute like he did before.

In fact, he had already noticed dozens of cultivators around him.

"Killing those who want to kill them and silencing their mouths would be unwise. Currently, I’m in disguise, and these people do not recognize me... But if I just walk away like this, Yu Qingqing and Mo Buwen might get implicated. What should I do?"

Lu Chen frowned deeply.

After some thought, he decided to leave.

Not just to leave, but to lead all these people away!

With that in mind, he deliberately fiddled with the black ashes.

"Eh, this magic artifact isn’t damaged?"

He exclaimed loudly, feigning surprise as he took out the jade flute and examined it closely, "What a fine artifact, a high-grade magic artifact indeed! Worthy of a disciple from a top sect, this could sell for a thousand Spirit Stones, right? Hehehe, it turns out that killing for loot is indeed the shortcut to wealth!"

He deliberately focused all his attention on the jade flute, treasuring it like a prized possession, while using his peripheral awareness to observe the expressions of all the cultivators around him.

As expected, many cultivators revealed a look of greed in their eyes!

"Hmph, I knew you couldn’t resist greed!"

This base nature of humanity was something Lu Chen was well aware of.

If he could use it, this was the way to lead them astray!

"Hahaha, I’ll find a place to hide it first, then see if any other sisters from the Spirit Sound Sect come looking, and then find a spot to ambush like this one. Surely, it will be a huge gain, a fortune made all at once!"

Lu Chen said loudly, and then, mounting the spear, he took to the air without giving the cave another glance, flying away.

He didn’t fly too fast but pretended to be looking around for a suitable place to hide the magic artifact while flying.

In fact, he was constantly monitoring with his peripheral awareness, and soon, several cultivators were following closely behind him, using the cover of bushes and trees to their advantage.

"Hmph, your greed will only cost you your lives!"

Lu Chen had no affection for these cultivators at all. Having been a Loose Cultivator for a while, he knew all too well that the Cultivation World was a place where the law of the jungle prevailed.

Even within the sect, there was constant competition and scheming.

Not to mention outside the sect!

Here, nearly everyone could be an enemy!

How could one be soft-hearted with enemies?

The moment these people decided to follow him, Lu Chen had already sentenced them to death in his heart.

At that time.

Almost all the cultivators were following Lu Chen.

Some of them even knew each other and opted to travel together.

As everyone left, another female cultivator from the Spirit Sound Sect landed at the spot.

Looking at the pile of charred ashes, she furrowed her brows and looked into the depths of the cave.

"Who has been burned to ash?"
