Chapter 470: Chapter 146: The True Blood Raven! Luo Cheng Returns!

Bang!

Luo Cheng grabbed the blood light in his hand.

It was a blood-colored jade bottle.

He immediately bowed respectfully and asked:

"What is this?"

"A chance encounter is fate. Since you are a disciple under the Blood Spirit Venerable and the first disciple of our sect I’ve met here in the Great Yue Dynasty, I, Blood Crow Immortal, naturally can’t be stingy."

"Inside this is the Blood Essence Pill! I see your aura is at the brink of perfection, about to ascend to the Fourth Layer of the Awakening Vein Realm. This pill can help you break through the realm and rapidly increase your cultivation!"

Even when speaking normally, the man in black exuded an eerie coldness, as if an owl mourning in the night, his voice seeming to emanate from deep within his bones. It gave people a chilling sense of foreboding.

"Thank you, Senior."

Luo Cheng licked his lips and pocketed the blood-colored jade bottle.

The man in black said, "I need to attend a meeting at the base. Would you like to come with me?"

Luo Cheng’s heart skipped a beat, but he replied calmly:

"I still have tasks to complete."

The man in black didn’t seem suspicious, nodding slightly: "Very well. Clean up these corpses so that no further complications arise."

"Due to the commotion in Guyuan City, various sects in the area have already noticed our presence and are secretly investigating. You should act cautiously, boy. It’s not time for battle yet; the moment hasn’t come."

"Understood!"

Luo Cheng nodded.

The man in black leaped onto a monstrous bird and, just as he was about to leave, suddenly halted, casting a sinister gaze at the Flame Jade Lion:

"After traveling so far, I’m feeling a bit thirsty..."

As he spoke, he raised his hand and clawed through the air.

The Flame Jade Lion was instantly seized into mid-air, its massive body directly torn apart, with its blood raining down heavily over him and the monstrous bird.

After swallowing several mouthfuls, the man shook his head: "Too bland! Boy, do you know of any villages nearby?"

He tossed aside the Flame Jade Lion’s corpse and looked toward Luo Cheng. Before Luo Cheng could respond, the man shook his head again and said:

"Forget it, I’ll find one myself!"

Whoosh!

The four-legged monstrous bird let out a screech and soared into the sky, disappearing into the clouds in a flash. The shredded clouds lingered for a long time without mending.

Hoo!

Only after sensing that the man’s aura had vanished did Luo Cheng let out a deep breath of turbid air, his heart still pounding. Unknowingly, his palms were already moist with cold sweat!

"The Blood Nether Sect! Blood Crow Immortal! It seems the Extreme Dao Sect’s Elder was right. The Blood Nether Sect is starting to rise from its ashes!"

Luo Cheng pondered deeply, recalling Blood Crow Immortal’s words, his heart filled with dread.

Boom!

Not daring to linger further, Luo Cheng raised his hand and struck the ground, burying the corpses of Yang Wencheng and the others deep underground, before soaring into the skies.

He deliberately avoided the direction where Blood Crow Immortal had left, flying toward Qishan City from the opposite side.

Only after flying over a thousand miles away did Luo Cheng feel safe enough to reflect carefully on the events that had occurred.

He had thought today would surely end in tragedy, and only by activating the life-saving talisman, the azure small sword, would there be a slim chance of survival!

Who could have imagined that the other party would mistake him for a disciple of the Blood Nether Sect, allowing him to escape unscathed!

"Blood Crow Immortal assumed this because of my technique in devouring essence blood, but more importantly, due to the aura of that Blood Spirit Venerable lingering on me..."

"The Blood Spirit Venerable! Could he be the master of those blood-colored pupils?"

Thinking it over, Luo Cheng could only come to this conclusion.

Back when he defeated the Awakening Vein Realm expert hired by the Lin Family and devoured their essence blood, he unknowingly provoked a mysterious and powerful being, nearly obliterating his divine soul in the process.

Thankfully, the Nine-colored Scale suppressed the entity.

Luo Cheng vividly remembered how, when those blood-colored pupils dissipated, the entity referred to itself as "This Venerable!"

"It seems I’ve inadvertently crossed paths with a formidable figure from the Blood Nether Sect!"

Luo Cheng sighed.

This Blood Spirit Venerable even swore to hunt him down and smash him to pieces!

"I’ll retreat and train in seclusion once I return!"

Exhaling heavily, Luo Cheng’s gaze hardened.

In recent days, both his cultivation and sword intent had advanced significantly.

His strength could truly be described as skyrocketing.

Previously, Luo Cheng believed his progress speed to be incredible, and he was even slightly proud in his heart.

The appearance of Blood Crow Immortal shattered all of that, replacing it with a profound sense of crisis.

Blood Crow Immortal had said that, in the near future, the Blood Nether Sect would dominate the entire Great Yue Dynasty, perhaps even the entire Eastern Continent!

When that day comes, it will surely be a storm of blood and carnage!

As for when that day will arrive,

or when the Blood Spirit Venerable will come for him,

none of this is certain!

For now, the only thing Luo Cheng can do is to prepare, to enhance his strength as much as possible.

Only by doing so can he ensure his ability to defend himself in the future!

There’s also Sun Yingyang—he must be dealt with as soon as possible.

Whoosh!

Accelerating to his maximum speed, Luo Cheng advanced by hundreds of meters with each leap, faster than the Flame Jade Lion.

At such a rapid pace, it took less than six days for Luo Cheng to return to Qishan City.

"What a pity the Flame Jade Lion was killed. I was planning to give it to grandfather. However, this Xuanqing Technique should suffice..."

Gazing at the unscathed Qishan City, Luo Cheng’s tightly strung nerves, taut for days, finally relaxed. A smile emerged on his face.

The Xuanqing Technique was something he had found on the Sun Family’s foreign Elder.

It was a Five-star Top Grade cultivation method.

This discovery brought Luo Cheng great joy.

The family’s highest cultivation method was the Three-star Technique Green Mist Technique.

Grandfather Luo Mingshan’s slow progress in cultivation, his inability to break through the Awakening Vein Realm for so long, not only stemmed from limitations in talent but also largely from the low grade of his cultivation method.

This Xuanqing Technique would be perfect for Luo Mingshan to cultivate.

Without any delay, Luo Cheng flew directly toward the Luo Family’s estate.

In a small city like Qishan, apart from the elusive and rarely seen City Lord Yun Daojiang, Awakening Vein Realm experts were extremely rare.

Luo Cheng’s appearance immediately caused a sensation.

"Oh my god! Look, someone’s flying!"

"An Awakening Vein Realm expert! A figure as lofty as an immortal. If it’s not the City Lord, who could it be?"

"Wait, that young man looks familiar. Could it be Luo Cheng from the Luo Family?"

"It’s really Luo Cheng! I heard he won first place in the Three Sects Martial Arts Competition and advanced to the Awakening Vein Realm, causing a huge commotion at the Eldest Prince’s banquet in the Imperial City. I didn’t believe it before, but now, it seems all the news was true!"

Realizing it was Luo Cheng, the entire Qishan City was in uproar. Shocked gazes were filled with disbelief, while admiration and reverence dominated.

Some even knelt down in awe.

This was the kind of absolute reverence that unassailable power instills.

To ordinary people, an Awakening Vein Realm expert might as well be an immortal standing atop the clouds!

Even the Qi Family’s Family Head noticed Luo Cheng, his expression complicated, a twinge of regret flashing through his mind over Qi Ting’s failure to establish a marriage alliance with Luo Cheng. But the regret swiftly dissipated.

Qi Ting was now merely an Outer Disciple of the Golden Ring Sect, at the Transcendence Realm, worlds apart from Luo Cheng.

Even if they had finalized the marriage alliance, the two were no longer in the same league, destined to drift apart.

"Looks like Qishan City has indeed birthed a True Dragon!"

Qi Fusong sighed, secretly thankful he hadn’t joined forces with the Lin Family in the past.

Otherwise, the downfall of the Lin Family might have been the Qi Family’s fate as well!

Luo Cheng deliberately slowed his flight.

The style of living gloriously in secret wasn’t his way.

"A year ago, when I left Qishan City for the Xuanyuan Sect after failing to awaken my Martial Soul, so many people were eager to see me fail. Today, I’ve cultivated to the Awakening Vein Realm, and they can only look up to me from the ground, treating me like an immortal! Life truly is fascinating..."

Hearing the crowd’s ecstatic cheering, Luo Cheng smirked lightly, deep in thought.

He wanted everyone to understand.

From this day onward,

The Luo Family is no longer the Luo Family of old!

And he, Luo Cheng, is no longer the Luo Cheng of the past!
