Chapter 221: Chapter 116: Lu Changsheng, Do You Know What Happened to My Sister?_3

“However, this is also good; it makes dealing with him easy,” Lu Changsheng thought calmly to himself.

“How is this brat flying so quickly?”

“He’s using a talisman, and he’s fully activating his magic artifact with his spiritual power. It won’t be long before he completely exhausts his spirit power!”

“He must have life-saving talismans on him; we can’t let him get away!” Having seen the situation, the three masked individuals put away their flying boat.

They each controlled their flying artifacts, formed spiritual arts with their hands, and chased after Lu Changsheng with all their might.

After a short while, Lu Changsheng entered the mountain range and slowed down.

“Kid, keep running, why have you stopped?”

“You’ve got guts, luring us away alone for the sake of others.”

“I heard you’re just the Lu Family’s son-in-law. I didn’t expect you to be so loyal to the Lu Family, sacrificing yourself for others.” The three, seeing Lu Changsheng slowing down, quickly surrounded him and mocked.

In their eyes, Lu Changsheng was now trapped with no escape.

They were not in a hurry to kill Lu Changsheng.

“Sigh, I didn’t expect you to hold me in such high regard, coming after me in full force,” Lu Changsheng said with a bitter smile to the three individuals.

Then he inquired, “Gentlemen, as I am facing death, may I ask you a question? Was it also you who attempted to assassinate Lu Miaoge before?”

“Lu Miaoge, you’re talking about the young girl from the Lu Family. Yes, that was us,” one of the masked men said directly.

“It’s just that girl was hit by our leader’s Black Fiend Slash, her life force was nearly extinguished, yet she didn’t die. I heard you saved her. How did you manage that?”

“That’s right, considering your talent as a Talisman Master, if you’re willing to surrender peacefully, we might give you a chance to live,” the other two said.

“How did I do it? It’s simple, because…” Lu Changsheng started with a bitter smile. Mid-sentence, his eyes suddenly sharpened, and he pointed his finger.

A seven-colored light burst from his fingertip. With a ‘whoosh’, a fierce sword light shot out, heading straight for the forehead of the man in front.

“Not good!” The three were startled in that moment.

The man targeted by the sword light, seeing the fierce sword beam before him, had his mental spirit tremble violently.

Before he could react, a bloody hole appeared in his forehead, and his consciousness disappeared.

Then, with a ‘thud’, he fell from his flying artifact.

“Do you understand the reason now?” Lu Changsheng asked the other two, who were in shock and fear.

However, just as the words left his mouth, two even larger sword beams from the Seven Luminaries Sword erupted and slashed out, chilling to the spine.

The two immediately raised body-protecting qi barriers around themselves and activated their magic artifacts, trying to defend.

But to the Seven Luminaries Sword beams, these qi barriers were like paper, instantly shattered and pierced through.

“Ah! No…” One had their brain pierced, another beheaded; both died instantly, ‘thud’ falling to the ground.

“Unknowingly, my strength has reached this point,” Lu Changsheng observed the three dead bodies, feeling a touch of joy and exhilaration in his usually calm heart.

After all, this was the first time he had killed an enemy relying on his own strength and not on talismans or Talisman Treasures.

Of course, the assistance of treasures like the Profound Origin Bead was also considered part of his strength.

“One benefit of using the Seven Luminaries Sword beam is that it doesn’t damage the magic artifacts on the person,” Lu Changsheng thought to himself.

He then collected the three individuals’ magic artifacts and storage bags.

He ignited three fireballs, reducing the bodies to ashes, and after a simple cleanup of the battlefield, quickly left.

He soon found a cave and began to sort through their storage bags.

“Hm? Yu? Could these people be backed by the Yu Family of Bi Lake Mountain?” While sorting through the storage bags and coming across a token from the Yu Family of Bi Lake Mountain, Lu Changsheng’s eyes narrowed slightly.

“Is it actually the Yu Family of Bi Lake Mountain, or is someone trying to frame them?” he wondered to himself.

He felt the likelihood of framing was low.

But if the Yu Family of Bi Lake Mountain had sent people, they probably would not carry such a token.

And this kind of token could not prove it was the Yu Family’s people; it just showed a connection to the Yu Family.

Without much thought, Lu Changsheng destroyed the token.

After all, such a token could have markers.

And it was useless to him.

He surely couldn’t go to the Yu Family with several tokens in hand to accuse them of wrongdoing?

In the Cultivation World, justice was not about right or wrong.

It was about strength, with no need for evidence.

Moments later.

Lu Changsheng finished sorting through the storage bags.

He had gained a total of 867 spirit stones,

four high-grade magic artifacts,

six middle-grade magic artifacts,

a flying boat,

several elixir medicines,

a number of talismans,

various spiritual medicines,

and then some miscellaneous materials.

“This haul of spirit stones and magic artifacts is a bit less, but the biggest gain this time is this flying boat.”

“This flying boat is worth at least a thousand or two thousand spirit stones.”

“But if it really is people from the Yu Family, then I can’t reveal this flying boat easily; it’s best to dispose of it.” After sorting, Lu Changsheng thought to himself.

He then looked at his immaculate, spotless magical robe and after a brief contemplation, made a few tears in his robe that he had worn for five or six years.

After all, he had narrowly escaped from the hands of three individuals at the Energy Refinement Late Stage, and such a neat appearance did not seem consistent with his ordeal.

“I should return in three or four days; otherwise, if I go back now, it would be a bit hard to explain.” Lu Changsheng considered.

He planned to add some marks of battle damage to his robe before going back.

Then Lu Changsheng started to meditate to recover his spiritual power.

His full use of the flying artifact and the release of three Seven Luminaries Sword beams had been a significant expenditure.

He had used up half of his spiritual power.

If not for the support of the Profound Origin Bead, he would never have used his spiritual power so recklessly.
