Under the cover of the Bursting Talisman's explosion, a purple light mixed in suddenly reached his face. Hastily, Ping Xingliu could only block with the Two Spirit Ruler in his hand!
Shrrrk!
A faint sound of something piercing through the air was heard.
The Purple Qi Divine Light directly penetrated the Two Spirit Ruler, shooting like lightning through his forehead.
"Bang!"
Even in death, Ping Xingliu couldn't believe it.
That he would die at the hands of an Early Stage of Foundation Establishment cultivator.
At the same time.
He couldn't figure out what kind of Magic Fu Changsheng used for that last Purple Qi Divine Light, which could even shatter his Tier Two Top-Grade Spiritual Artifact, the Two Spirit Ruler.
Unwillingness, regret!
Ping Xingliu's corpse fell heavily to the ground.
The moment the Divine Light in his eyes dispersed.
What remained was deep self-recrimination!
Before he left, the Clan Leader was still uneasy and came out to exhort him multiple times, instructing him not to create extra issues at the Ghost Market and to return to the clan territory immediately after purchasing the Soul Condensing Incense and other items!
If only.
If only he had listened to the Clan Leader.
Then he wouldn't have met such a tragic end today.
At the same time.
The hard-earned Soul Condensing Incense would now be handed over, and it just so happened to fall into the hands of that little beast, Fu Changsheng.
...
Fu Changsheng waved his sleeve.
Directly incorporating Ping Xingliu's corpse into a storage bag.
Maneuvering the Celestial Thunder Sword, he returned to the battlefield five miles away.
There, he saw that Cao Renshan had already been slain by Shangguan Feng.
At this time, Shangguan Feng was assisting Lin Tianfu and his wife in besieging Hee Mingdian, whose Mana was nearly exhausted. Under the trio's assault, Hee Mingdian persisted for less than three breaths before being split in two, dead beyond dead!
Fu Changsheng formed a sign with his right hand, and with a hum, the last remaining Mana in his body transformed into clusters of flames, which fell thunderously onto Qiuya Mountain.
Boom!
In the next instant.
The fire spread rapidly, setting Qiuya Mountain ablaze.
Simultaneously, he waved his sleeve, and the Flying Ship hovered in mid-air. With a slight tap of his toe, he landed on the Flying Ship and called to Shangguan Feng and Lin Tianfu and his wife:
"Uncle Feng, Fellow Daoist Lin, quickly board the ship."
Though the battle just now hadn't lasted long.
If someone with ill intentions were to notice, it could be troublesome, as all four of them, except Shangguan Feng, had nearly exhausted their Mana. After the four boarded the ship, Fu Changsheng activated the invisibility function of the ship, and the Flying Ship flew swiftly towards the Taiqiu Mountain Range.
On the Flying Ship.
Lin Tianfu, feeling a sense of survival after the disaster, gratefully clasped his hands towards Shangguan Feng:
"Had it not been for Fellow Daoist Shangguan's timely assistance today, I fear my wife and I would have met a grim fate. We are deeply indebted to you, Fellow Daoist Shangguan, for coming to our aid despite your injuries. We shall keep this favor in our hearts!"
"Our three families are allies by nature, Younger Brother Lin, there's no need for such courtesy. If thanks are in order, it's to Changsheng for his foresight, arranging for me to conceal my presence before entering the Ghost Market, making the Cao Family believe you three were easy targets."
"Fellow Daoist Shangguan, you also entered the Ghost Market?!"
Lin Tianfu and his wife were momentarily stunned.
As they were completely unaware.
They thought Shangguan Feng had laid an ambush beforehand.
Shangguan Feng explained with a smile:
"After the Demon Cave Battlefield ended, I received a letter from Changsheng saying that a Ghost Market would soon open at Ghostly Wail Ridge. Upon hearing this, I used a Blinding Technique to make it seem like I returned to Anyang County, but in reality, I headed straight here. Upon learning that the Cao, Hee, and Ping families each sent three Foundation Establishment cultivators, I concealed my presence to avoid alerting them, and then we could catch them all in one fell swoop."
So that's how it is.
Hearing this, Lin Tianfu and his wife were both surprised and impressed by Fu Changsheng's thorough planning at such a young age.
Fu Changsheng expressed a bit of apology:
"Fellow Daoist Lin, I'm truly sorry for not informing you earlier, so as not to alert the Cao Family."
"No need for formalities, Fellow Daoist Fu, if it weren't for you, we wouldn't have been able to eliminate three Foundation Establishment enemies. The three families now each have one less Mid-Stage Foundation Establishment cultivator, and will have to behave for a few more years, giving our two families some time to recuperate. We're the ones who should be thanking you and Fellow Daoist Shangguan."
During the battle just now.
Fu Changsheng deliberately lured Ping Xingliu to a place where he couldn't be seen. With only his own strength, he, with a Third-Layer Foundation Establishment cultivation, managed to kill Ping Xingliu, who was at the Fifth-Layer Foundation Establishment, an impressive feat that shocked Lin Tianfu and his wife!
Because.
Even when they combined their strength to face Hee Mingdian, who was also a Mid-Stage Foundation Establishment cultivator, they could only barely handle it, let alone counterattack. And they even practiced a Combined Attack Secret Technique.
From another perspective.
Fu Changsheng's combat power surpassed theirs considerably!
In the Cultivation Realm.
Strength has always been respected.
Thus, Lin Tianfu and his wife now held even more respect for Fu Changsheng.
At the same time.
They were very pleased with their decision to become guarantors for the Fu Family.
If not.
They wouldn't have had the opportunity to enter the Ghost Market.
After exchanging courtesies for a while.
Fu Changsheng looked at Shangguan Feng, concerned:
"Uncle Feng, your injury...."
"It's nothing serious. Though I can only exert Mid-Stage Foundation Establishment power right now, I've already exchanged for Healing Holy Medicine in the Ghost Market; I should recover fully after a few years of seclusion."
"That's good to hear, Uncle Feng. With the Demon Cave being so dangerous and the battle having gone on for years, has it finally been cleared of monsters?"
"Yes, the monsters in the Demon Cave have been cleared, and its exit has been sealed. However, the duration that the Barrier can last is uncertain, so take advantage of this peace to quickly enhance your strength; once the Demon Cave erupts again, the Court's Recruitment Order will inevitably reach the Fu Family."
"Yes, Uncle Feng!"
The group arrived at the Taiqiu Mountain Range.
The Mana of Lin Tianfu and his wife had almost recovered; they clasped their hands and took their leave.
Shangguan Feng also intended to return to the clan territory for seclusive healing.
After sending the three of them off.
Immediately, in Fu Changsheng's Sea of Divine Sense, a familiar mechanical voice echoed:
"Ding"
"You have slain a Foundation Establishment enemy for the family, earning eighty Contribution Points."
Clearly.
This was the reward for slaying Ping Xingliu.
Just now on the Flying Ship, he was busy conversing with Uncle Feng and the others, and hadn't had the chance to check Ping Xingliu's storage bag; he now felt a mix of anticipation and nervousness.
