A Sect from a Spirit Vein

Chapter 104 - 99: Bichao Strategy

"Spare his life!" At this moment, Lu Qian’s shout had just resounded. The Chaosheng Sect still had elite forces outside and guards inside. In such a situation, a living Zhang Shouchang serving as a hostage was actually more useful than a dead one.

But by the time he flew over, Gu Nishang casually said, "He’s already dead."

Lu Qian stared at the deep hole in the rock wall, swept it with his divine sense, and sighed. Zhang Shouchang’s corpse was incomplete, repeatedly battered, twisted like a pretzel.

This person who had dominated this area for a century was now dead, but there was still a mess that needed to be cleaned up.

Gu Nishang suddenly coughed, a trace of blood oozing from the corner of her mouth, unable to maintain her transformation, the fiery light dissipating in an instant, reverting to her usual appearance. At this moment, her face was pale, and the burn mark on her neck was unbearable to look at.

But everyone present had witnessed her fighting one against three and still having the upper hand with such terrifying combat power, who dared to show any disrespect in their hearts?

This time, Lu Qian also reassessed her, not expecting her to be even more formidable than he had imagined. He originally planned to lead forty elite to at least distract one Foundation Establishment enemy, to share the pressure, but unexpectedly they became mere onlookers in the battle.

The domineering cultivation technique of the Golden Crow Grand Derivation True Technique, paired with her extreme enjoyment of combat and love of violence, created such a Gu Nishang, captivating in appearance but terrifying within.

Lu Qian hurriedly moved forward: "Elder Gu, are you okay? Quickly meditate for a while, healing is the priority."

Gu Nishang stared at him, then suddenly giggled.

Lu Qian felt his hair stand on end from this laugh, this beauty suddenly patted Lu Qian’s shoulder gently: "Lu Qian, although you told another lie and even took my prey, this fight was quite enjoyable, not bad, not bad, indeed there’s lots of fighting when following you."

Saying that, she suddenly sat down beside Lu Qian, took a bottle of elixirs out of her storage pouch, and tipped it back, chewing a handful of golden, shiny spirit pills with a crunch like eating soybeans. Then she closed her eyes, ignoring the surroundings, and immediately began meditating for healing.

Lu Qian watched in cold sweat; ordinary cultivators would carefully meditate and guide the medicinal power after taking even one pill to avoid misguided meridians. Moreover, the elixir she took was a secret concoction of the Danxia Sect with extraordinary power, yet it was unknown what kind of physique Gu Nishang had to withstand such treatment.

Truly astonishing.

Lu Qian gave an order, and the cultivators moved, collecting the storage pouches and various artifacts from the three Foundation Establishment cultivators. These were originally the battle spoils of the Yunshan Sect and belonged to Gu Nishang, who dared to appropriate them? They were all handed to Lu Qian at once.

Lu Qian also took Zhang Shouchang’s head, suppressing his nausea and placing it with Qian Ruyi’s. Wan An’s head was already smashed, but it was no longer needed. Zhang Shouchang’s and Qian Ruyi’s were enough.

Young Master Zhou saw Zhang Shouchang’s twisted and deformed corpse, burst into laughter, then suddenly collapsed into crying. His confidants rushed up to comfort him, Lu Qian sighed: "Young Master Zhou, you need to calm down, Yuqing Mountain has not yet been retaken, and your revenge is not yet complete."

Hearing this, Young Master Zhou stood up sobbing, bowed deeply to Lu Qian: "Sect Leader Lu, your great kindness and virtue are unforgettable. From now on, I will obey your every command."

Lu Qian helped him up, comforted him with a few words, and seeing that matters here were settled, ordered everyone to head towards Bichao Mountain again.

Calculating the flight speed of the Floating Battleship, they should arrive in another two hours, and now they must take down Bichao Mountain.

Returning in front of Bichao Mountain, the encirclement remained intact, nothing unexpected had happened. The cultivators within Bichao Mountain were still in the dark, unaware that their greatest reliance had already been seized by Lu Qian and others.

The Yunshan Sect members, seeing Lu Qian return victorious, were overjoyed beyond measure. But there was no time for idle talk, Lu Qian gave an order, and the cultivators returned to their positions. To the defending forces of Bichao Mountain, it appeared as if dozens more cultivators had joined the encirclement, shocking them greatly.

Lu Qian no longer hesitated; with Gu Nishang meditating and healing, he pointed to two Late-Stage Qi Cultivation members from the Zhou family as reinforcements, and came to the formation’s front to shout loudly: "All members of the Chaosheng Sect, listen up! Your Sect Leader Zhang Shouchang and Elder Qian Ruyi have been slain! You are utterly defeated!"

The remaining disciples of the Chaosheng Sect heard these words as if struck by lightning, causing a ruckus. The leading disciple shouted loudly for order, but it was futile because, by this time, the two Foundation Establishment cultivators should have returned, leading everyone to speculate wildly.

Just then, two figures suddenly passed through the grand array, raised their hands, and held up two heads high: "Everyone look, here are the heads of Zhang Shouchang and Qian Ruyi!"

It turned out that the two people carried pass tokens of the Seven Stars Moon Closing Array found on Zhang Shouchang and Qian Ruyi, allowing them to pass through the array unimpeded.

The disciples’ eyes fell on the heads, and although it was deep into the night, the vision of cultivators was exceptional, and upon seeing them, they felt an overwhelming chill.

It truly is the Sect Leader’s and Elder’s heads!

The enemies can now freely enter and exit the grand array, the Sect Leader and Elder are truly dead!

In an instant, the disciples cried out in shock, panic-stricken, wanting to flee in all directions, only to see the escape light blazing outside the array, with a hundred magical artifacts surrounding Bichao Mountain completely, where could they escape? The leading disciple was tongue-tied in shock and despair.

Only to hear Lu Qian outside the array shouting loudly: "You are already defeated, from today onwards, there is no more Chaosheng Sect in the world! Surrender and be spared! If you don’t surrender and the mountain gate is breached, none will be spared!"
