Chapter 258: Chapter 189: Another Powerful Trump Card! Zheng Family’s Ancestor
 

“`

When Lu Qing returned to Jiuli Village, it was still dark and dawn had not yet come.

No one knew that he had traveled back and forth over a thousand miles overnight and completely annihilated a Seven Killings Tower outpost hundreds of miles away.

Sitting cross-legged on the wooden bed and after regaining his breath, Lu Qing began to ponder.

He was primarily summarizing the gains and losses of tonight’s battle.

First of all, there was nothing noteworthy about the opponent.

Yuan Yang Village was just an ordinary outpost of the Seven Killings Tower, although it had several Internal Organ Realm assassins and was heavily guarded with both conspicuous and hidden sentries.

But to Lu Qing, who possessed the power of the Divine Soul, this was as good as non-existent.

The few Internal Organ Realm assassins, led by a man in brocade garb, had not put any pressure on him at all.

It couldn’t be helped. His current accumulation of power was simply too vast, already far beyond the scope of an ordinary Postnatal Realm Martial Artist.

Lu Qing estimated that, with his current strength within the Postnatal Realm, perhaps only legendary peerless geniuses or Children of Fate could pressure him.

Or those direct descendants trained by top sects, possessing various powerful secret techniques.

Others, even Martial Arts Grandmasters who had cultivated their Divine Soul Power, were probably not his match in a normal state, let alone forcing out his various trump cards.

Even ordinary Innate Realm ones…

He would have to actually fight to know.

This retaliation did not surprise Lu Qing.

Rather, the process had brought him quite a surprise.

The biggest surprise was the effect of the Earth Element Talisman.

A single Earth Element Talisman allowed him to traverse a thousand miles without fatigue. Such an auxiliary effect was indeed astonishing.

This also made Lu Qing realize that although he could currently only store five Magic Talismans in the space of his brow chakra, and only one of each attribute,

if used properly, these five talismans would become one of his greatest trump cards.

“With a talisman condensed from Primordial Qi having such miraculous effects, I wonder what power those ‘Spirit Talismans’ refined with Spiritual Energy in the legacy would possess.”

Lu Qing couldn’t help but imagine.

The Rune Path is a very unique cultivation system.

It takes the natural world as its teacher, thus it has strong adaptability and is not constrained by the immediate cultivation environment.

In periods where Spiritual Energy is rich and the path of Immortal Cultivation thrives, it bases itself on Spiritual Energy to condense various strange ‘Spirit Talismans’ for combat and self-enhancement.

In eras where Spiritual Energy is scarce, it uses Heaven and Earth Primordial Qi to condense Primordial Energy Talismans, and although its power is much less than that of ‘Spirit Talismans’, it still possesses various unusual abilities.

Lu Qing had already experienced the strength of the Primordial Energy Talismans.

Naturally, he anticipated even more the stronger ‘Spirit Talismans’.

With the recovery of Spiritual Energy imminent, if the power of the ‘Spirit Talismans’ is strong enough,

then his cultivation in the Rune Path, even without switching to Immortal Cultivation, would not fear anyone.

After mulling over the Rune Path, Lu Qing thoroughly reviewed the process of this journey.

After ensuring he had not overlooked or neglected anything, and his identity was exposed, he then lay down to rest for a while.

Just as Lu Qing was resting in his dreams,

elsewhere in the Zheng Mansion of the famous Cangzhou State Mansion, an incredibly oppressive atmosphere was enveloping the area.

“Are you telling me, this is Yu’er?”

In the main hall of Zheng Mansion, the imposing Zheng Family Master was asking with an icy face.

Before him, several guards were kneeling on the ground, and in the center, two bodies covered with white silk were lying.

One had their brow chakra pierced, and the other had their entire head blown off, leaving a headless corpse.

Hearing the Family Master’s question, the kneeling guards trembled and started shivering, none daring to answer.

As for the other guards and servants in the hall, they were as silent as cicadas in winter, not even daring to breathe too loudly, desperately trying to minimize their presence.

Who could have imagined that the second son would die just from a trip outside?

If the old ancestor knew, it’s hard to say how many would die.

“`

“I’m asking you all a question, has everyone gone deaf?”

Zheng Family Master’s face grew even colder.

Feeling the Family Head’s increasingly icy gaze, finally, a guard with a trembling voice, struggled to speak.

“Re, Replying to the Family Head, when the Second Young Master left the mansion this afternoon, he was wearing this very outfit, and he was accompanied by Commander Yang here.”

“So, Yu’er was killed within less than a day after he went out, not even a complete body could be left behind. Who can tell me what happened, and where exactly did he go this afternoon?”

The guard was about to respond when suddenly, a suppressed atmosphere arrived, with several figures walking out from the inner hall.

Leading them was an old woman, supported by a middle-aged beautiful woman.

“Mother, why have you gotten up!”

Zheng Family Master saw her and hurriedly went forward to help support the old woman.

The guards and servants in the hall lowered their heads even further.

“Hmph! Why have I gotten up? I had just gone to sleep not long ago when I heard Yanyan come crying, saying something had happened to Yu’er. Is this true?”

The old lady snorted, and her dragon-headed cane lightly tapped the ground, causing a muffled sound and a slight tremor.

It turned out that the dragon-headed cane was made of metal, extremely heavy.

Zheng Family Master’s heart lurched, and he stealthily glanced at his wife.

Then he sadly said, “Mother, I too just learned of this incident. Yu’er has been killed!”

“What did you say!!”

Hearing this, the old lady’s eyes widened in shock, a terrifying aura emanating from her.

“Yu’er has been killed, where is he?!”

“Right in front of you, the guards say that this headless corpse is Yu’er, but I haven’t had time to verify it yet.”

The old woman suddenly turned her head to look at the two corpses on the ground.

When she had come out earlier, she had not failed to notice these two corpses, but because they were covered with white silk, their attire was not clear.

She could never have imagined that one of them would turn out to be her most beloved grandson.

The middle-aged beautiful woman, too, looked shocked upon hearing this.

She had merely heard from her maid that the Second Young Master had met with some trouble, but she had never expected that he was dead.

Gazing at the headless corpse, the old woman’s hands trembled slightly.

Yet she was no ordinary person and, with strong will, suppressed her emotions, her voice sounding a bit hoarse.

“Green Nanny, go check it.”

“Yes, Mistress.”

As the old woman gestured, a green-clothed nanny with a somewhat strange aura walked forward, gently lifting the white silk off the headless corpse.

Seeing the clothes on the corpse, the old woman’s fingers slightly trembled.

She remembered, Yu’er had come to greet her this morning wearing this very outfit.

Green-clothed Nanny’s hand also paused momentarily, but she gently unfolded the clothing on the corpse.

Then, when she saw a distinctive birthmark on the corpse’s chest, she did not continue, but covered the body again and stepped back.

She approached the old woman and softly reported, “Mistress, it is indeed Young Master Yu’er.”

The old woman’s body swayed, as if she was about to collapse.

“Mother!”@@novelbin@@

Zheng Family Master, who had been watching intently, hurriedly stepped forward to help support her.

“Get away!”

However, in the next moment, a terrifying aura burst forth from the old woman, directly pushing him back.

“Who was it, who would dare kill my Yu’er, and with such cruel methods!”

It was as if chilling words had ascended from the Nine Netherworld, spoken by the old woman.

Her clenched teeth and demeanor seemed as though she would tear someone apart.
