254: Chapter 254 Li Changfeng Kneels Down on the Spot?

Su Changge stared in the direction where the dark shadow on the courtyard wall had disappeared.

His heart was racing.

That dark shadow just now was definitely not Li Changfeng.

What was it here for?

To monitor him?

Su Changge suppressed the panic in his heart.

He turned around and walked back to the stone table to sit down.

Being anxious now was useless.

Li Changfeng refused to let him out; he couldn't win in a fight, nor could he break the Formation.

He could only wait for Li Changfeng to return and use special effects to give him a good scare.

Ideally, it would frighten him into obediently letting him go.

Su Changge opened the System panel.

He glanced at his emotion points balance.

Yesterday alone, he had earned over eight thousand emotion points from Li Changfeng and Willow.

It was enough to trigger the "One Sword Opens the Heavenly Gate" special effect once.

It was also enough to trigger the "Words Become Law" phenomenon once.

Su Changge's heart felt a bit more stable.

With special effects in hand, as long as he saw Li Changfeng, there was still a chance to turn the tables.

He waited for an entire day.

The next afternoon, Li Changfeng finally arrived.

He even brought a large pile of Heaven And Earth Treasures.

Through the courtyard gate, Li Changfeng's voice remained respectful.

"Senior, Junior has come to visit you."

Su Changge stood up.

He walked to the courtyard gate.

He spoke indifferently.

"Come in."

The Formation outside the courtyard gate rippled.

Li Changfeng entered, accompanied by two trusted Elders and carrying a pile of boxes.

Once inside the courtyard, Li Changfeng immediately closed the gate.

He bowed deeply to Su Changge.

"Senior, Junior has brought some small gifts for you. Please see if they are to your liking."

He waved his hand.

The two trusted Elders immediately placed the boxes in their hands onto the stone table.

They opened them one by one.

In the first box was a Daoist robe woven from Thousand-Year Ice Silkworm Silk; it was as thin as a cicada's wing and emitted a faint spiritual glow.

In the second box was a bottle of Ten-Thousand-Year Stalactite Milk stored in a jade bottle, its Spiritual Qi so dense it was almost overflowing.

In the third box was a bottle of Nine-Revolution Soul-Returning Pills, each wrapped in golden light—a supreme treasure capable of saving the life of a Golden Core Cultivator.

In the fourth box was a set of top-tier Scholar's Four Jewels, crafted from Ten-Thousand-Year Spiritual Wood.

They were all supreme treasures that Golden Core Cultivators would fight tooth and nail for.

Li Changfeng said respectfully.

"These are just a small token of Junior's appreciation. If Senior likes them, Junior has many more."

Su Changge's gaze swept over the Heaven And Earth Treasures on the table.

He rolled his eyes inwardly.

[The last meal before execution is quite lavish.]

On the surface, he remained as calm and unruffled as ever.

He didn't show even the slightest hint of being moved.

He merely gave a slight nod.

"You are quite thoughtful."

Seeing Su Changge accept the gifts, the smile on Li Changfeng's face widened.

He personally poured a cup of spiritual tea for Su Changge.

Holding it with both hands, he presented it to Su Changge.

"Please have some tea, Senior. This is the newly harvested Cloud Mist Spiritual Tea from this year. Please try it."

Su Changge took the teacup.

The moment his fingertips touched the teacup.

The System's notification sounded in his mind.

[Host contact with teacup detected. Match top-tier special effect?]

Su Changge's heart stirred.

Perfect. He would try out the special effects and give Li Changfeng a real fright.

With a thought.

He activated the cheapest great dao golden lotus special effect.

It only cost five hundred emotion points.

Holding the teacup, Su Changge slightly raised his hand.

The pale gold tea in the cup instantly lit up with a dazzling golden light.

Translucent great dao golden lotuses began to grow out of the tea.

One after another, eighty-one ninth-grade golden lotuses actually grew within the small teacup.

A rich Dao Rhyme instantly filled the entire courtyard.

The golden light from the lotuses was so bright that people couldn't keep their eyes open.

In the air, faint Daoist sounds seemed to echo.

The spiritual spring in the entire Qingwei Courtyard began to boil along with it.

Holding the teacup, Su Changge took a sip with a calm expression.

The tea slid down his throat.

He looked up at Li Changfeng.

He spoke indifferently.

"The tea is not bad."

The entire courtyard was so quiet that a falling needle could be heard.

Li Changfeng's raised hand froze in mid-air.

His eyes were wide and round.

He stared at the eighty-one ninth-grade golden lotuses in Su Changge's teacup.

His legs went weak.

With a thud, he knelt on the ground.

The two Elders who had followed him in also knelt down with two more thuds.

The three of them slammed their heads against the bluestone floor.

They didn't even have the courage to look up.

Li Changfeng's voice was shaking uncontrollably.

"Im—Immortal Venerable! This Junior was blind! I have offended the Immortal Venerable! Please, Immortal Venerable, spare my life!"

He had lived for over three hundred years.

Forget seeing it, he hadn't even heard of such a phenomenon.

Growing eighty-one ninth-grade golden lotuses just by holding a teacup, accompanied by Daoist sounds...

What level of existence was this?

A Great Emperor?

A True Immortal?

In Li Changfeng's heart, his awe for Su Changge had reached its peak.

At the same time, his greed became even more intense.

For such a powerful Immortal Venerable, how pure must his Origin be?

Using him as a sacrifice, forget repairing the Teleportation Array—even breaking through to the Soul Transformation Stage or even the Body Integration Stage would be no problem!

Li Changfeng lay prostrate on the ground, his head thumping against the floor.

"Immortal Venerable, please forgive me! Junior is guilty! Please, Immortal Venerable, spare Junior's life!"

Su Changge looked at the three people kneeling on the ground.

He felt incredibly satisfied.

The System's special effects were indeed the GOAT.

He suppressed the satisfaction in his heart.

He spoke indifferently.

"Rise. I do not blame you."

Li Changfeng quickly scrambled up from the ground.

He still kept his head down and his body bowed, not even daring to breathe loudly.

Su Changge held the teacup.

His fingertips gently rotated the teacup.

The golden lotuses in the teacup swayed, and the golden light grew even brighter.

Li Changfeng was so scared he almost knelt again.

Su Changge spoke indifferently.

"Regarding what I said before about removing the Formation, have you considered it?"

Li Changfeng's body stiffened.

He forced a respectful smile onto his face.

"Immortal Venerable, it's not that Junior is unwilling to remove it. It's just that there is a Sacrificial Rite in three days. Once the rite is over, Junior will definitely remove the Formation for you immediately, alright?"

Su Changge's heart skipped a beat.

A Sacrificial Rite?

What Sacrificial Rite?

Just as he was about to press for more information.

Staring at the golden light swirling around Su Changge's fingertips, Li Changfeng subconsciously blurted out.

"The preparations for the Sacrificial Rite are foolproof. Please rest assured, Immortal Venerable, it will surely satisfy you!"

Su Changge's gaze instantly turned cold.

The preparations for the Sacrificial Rite are foolproof?

What does that mean?

This Sacrificial Rite... is it related to him?
