145: Chapter 11: The Beginning of Final Peace

At this moment, Chen Yingong took out a purplish-blue clean bottle from his storage bag, quickly stepped forward, aimed it at the Ugly Woman's corpse, and a translucent Soul, showing a look of fear and unwillingness, was sucked into the clean bottle.

"Fellow Daoist, can this person's Soul be handed over to my Chen Family for disposal?" Chen Yingong asked, looking at Luo Qingchen.

Luo Qingchen inserted the sword in her hand into its sheath and said concisely: "Please do!"

Her cold personality was exactly like Chen Youwan's, both having a 'do not approach strangers' attitude.

Tu Wan looked at the Ugly Woman lying in a pool of blood, and finally a look of remorse appeared on his face.

Although the Ugly Woman was ugly, he had never disliked her. After all, the reason for the Ugly Woman's ugliness was due to cultivating the wrong technique, wasn't it?

Their relationship was very close, but he hadn't expected that he would fall into the hands of Chen Jiancang, a Qi Refining Ninth Layer. Even the person closest to him had lost her life here.

"Chen Jiancang, can you tell me what poison I was poisoned with?" Tu Wan asked resignedly, looking at Chen Jiancang, his voice muffled and unclear.

A poison that could make people lose control of their spiritual energy, invisible, colorless, and odorless, and made it impossible to guard against, had never appeared in the cultivation world. Otherwise, how could he not have been prepared and capsized in the gutter?

Chen Jiancang recovered his senses, ignored Tu Wan's curious question, scanned the messy scene, and his gaze fell on the dying Tu Wan, his eyes filled with killing intent.

He lifted his foot and walked towards Tu Wan, each step heavy. "Tu Wan, you really deserve to die."

With that, Chen Jiancang stepped on Tu Wan's head without mercy, trying to vent his anger.

Tu Wan was heavily stomped on, curled up on the ground, covered in blood and dirt. Without his tongue, he could only make muffled whimpers, and fear surged in his cloudy eyes.

Chen Jiancang wanted to end his life with a single sword strike, but was unwilling to let him die so easily. After all, Chen Youyun was one of the few elders he respected. If he ended Tu Wan's life so easily, it would be too convenient for him.

The white-clothed female cultivator Luo Qingchen looked at Tu Wan, slightly furrowed her brows, and said to Chen Jiancang: "This person is a magic cultivator. Keeping him alive like this might lead to complications. I suggest you eliminate the future trouble now."

Chen Jiancang nodded, but Qing He's eyes were red and swollen, and the hand holding the magic tool was still trembling. She looked at Tu Wan, her hatred burning like a raging fire: "We can't let him off so easily. I want to cut him into a thousand pieces for Master!"

Who would have thought that the originally lively, cheerful, and mischievous Qing He would have such evil intentions at this moment.

Chen Yingong staggered over, covering his wound, his voice weak but firm: "Jiancang, the Blood Hidden Gate's large-scale attack on the Xiao Yun Mountain Spiritual Vein was probably planned in secret for a long time. Now I suspect that the Xiao Yun Mountain Spiritual Vein is not the only Spiritual Vein under attack. The most urgent task is to send the Souls of these two people to the Main Spiritual Vein and let the Hall Master search their Souls to interrogate the Blood Hidden Gate's plan."

"Qing He, now is not the time for impulsive actions. I know you deeply hate this person. I promise you that after the Hall Master finishes searching his Soul, I will bring his Soul for you to dispose of. Whether it's lighting the Soul lamp or torturing him day and night with Soul Refining techniques, it's all up to you."

Although Qing He was not surnamed Chen, she and Chen Youyun had a father-daughter relationship. If she didn't vent the grief and anger in her heart, it might damage her Dao Heart and perhaps lead her to go mad.

Qing He nodded upon hearing this. She was not the kind of person who couldn't distinguish right from wrong. Although she wanted to torture Tu Wan to the extreme to honor her Master's spirit in heaven, she also understood that such a major incident had happened to the Chen Family and that the Blood Hidden Gate's plan needed to be interrogated as quickly as possible to deal with the potential crisis that might follow.

Seeing Qing He nod, Chen Jiancang beheaded Tu Wan with a sword.

Chen Yingong stepped forward and, following the same method, put Tu Wan's Soul into the clean bottle, saying to Chen Jiancang: "There is no time to lose, I will return to the Main Spiritual Vein first."

At this time, the Xiao Yun Mountain Spiritual Vein encountering such a crisis had already attracted the attention of countless people. Some bold rogue cultivators were gathering around the periphery of the Chen Clan's residential area, curiously looking around.

Some Clan Elders from the Xiao Yun Mountain Spiritual Vein lineage who were in seclusion also appeared one after another.

"What happened to the Chen Family? Someone actually dared to attack in the Chen Clan's residential area. Are they tired of living?" Someone asked curiously. These rogue cultivators who made a living in the Qingya Mountain Range all exuded confidence in the Chen Family's rule.

After sensing the intense battle fluctuations that had occurred here, they all came to watch curiously.

In their opinion, the Chen Family was like an unshakeable behemoth. No one dared to pull the tiger's whiskers of the Chen Family. After all, the Chen Family alone had dozens of Foundation Establishment cultivators, not to mention the Foundation Establishment families who were attached to the Chen Family.

For hundreds of years in the Qingya Mountain Range, very few people dared to cause trouble here. However, recently, such incidents had been happening frequently.

They couldn't understand what kind of people would be so bold as to openly attack the Chen Family on a Spiritual Vein ruled by the Chen Clan.

At this time, one of the earliest rogue cultivators to arrive lowered his voice and said mysteriously: "You all don't know this, but I was the earliest to arrive just now and heard a heaven-shattering piece of news from the attacker's mouth. I wonder if you are interested in knowing."

"Wang Er, you scumbag, stop beating around the bush. If you have something to say, say it quickly." Someone in the crowd recognized the speaker and urged him with curses.

"Lu Shen, this news is too explosive. If I tell it, I will have to bear some risks. Maybe the Chen Family will hold me accountable afterwards, so this news is not free. I don't ask for much, 10 spiritual stones. It's absolutely worth the price. How about you all chip in?" Wang Er said to the crowd with confidence. When he arrived just now, he happened to hear that secret news, which is why he had the idea of earning spiritual stones.

"Wang Er, are you going to speak or not? If you don't, I'll report you to the Chen Family Law Enforcement Hall." Someone in the crowd threatened.

Upon hearing this, Wang Er's face showed a difficult expression, but he still kept silent. Everyone was helpless, and with a few ling sand each, they quickly gathered 10 spiritual stones and handed them to him, saying: "Now you can speak, right? Who is it, and for what reason did they dare to cause trouble on the Chen Family's Spiritual Vein?"

Wang Er took the scattered ling sand, and a smug smile finally appeared on his face. He whispered: "This news is absolutely worth the price. When I came just now, I personally heard the attacker say that the Chen Family Old Ancestor Chen Qing Yuan failed to break through to Nascent Soul and has died with his Soul extinguished."

"What!"

"Impossible, absolutely impossible. Wang Er, how dare you spread alarmist rumors! There will be heavenly thunder tribulations when forming a Nascent Soul, and there have been no unusual phenomena in the Qingya Mountain Range recently." Someone immediately questioned him. Compared to the Chen Family, these rogue cultivators were equally concerned about the situation in the Qingya Mountain Range.

Although they had to rely on the Chen Family to survive in the Qingya Mountain Range, there wasn't that much chaos. If the Chen Family fell, the first to suffer would be these rogue cultivators without any Foundation.

Therefore, they also didn't want to believe that the Chen Family Old Ancestor Chen Qing Yuan had died and his Soul extinguished.
