Chapter 228: Sister, don't worry, none of them will escape! (Please keep reading)

Kumu Cave is very far from Tianyong Manor, and riding a horse there would be too much of a waste of time.

Previously, he rode a horse for leisure, but now there was no need.

Lu Zheng directly sealed everyone into cards, and then, using the power of the Teleportation Talisman, arrived at Kumu Cave in less than fifteen minutes.

Such large factions are not difficult to find.

As a first-rate martial arts faction, Kumu Cave is located on Kumu Mountain.

Originally, this small gang only had one cave, but it later grew and developed, and now the entire mountain is their property.

Just like Tianyong Manor.

With thousands of direct gang members and tens of thousands of servants and tenants, it has clearly become a state within a state.

"That's Kumu Cave ahead. Let's ride our horses there!"

Lu Zheng said after releasing everyone.

Fu Qiubai was astonished.

Kumu Cave and Tianyong Manor are 1,300 li apart, yet for her, they had traveled directly from Tianyong Manor to Kumu Cave without even blinking!

What kind of divine method was this?

Shifting shadows, shrinking the ground to an inch!

Her eyes, as she looked at Lu Zheng, were filled with admiration and reverence.

Su Baitao looked at Fu Qiubai, who was embraced by Lu Zheng and riding a horse with him, and showed a resentful expression.

Originally, that position was hers.

But she also knew that newcomers always received some preferential treatment for the first few days.

To return to that position, she would have to wait a bit.

Feeling displeased, she immediately spurred her horse and charged towards the Kumu Cave stronghold.

At the same time, she shouted loudly:

"The Red Lotus Female Riders have come to avenge Yijian Manor! All of you, come out and face your death quickly!"

This approach was very arrogant. A few people daring to challenge a stronghold of tens of thousands at its gates would normally be shot to death by arrows.

But Su Baitao's warhorse was a sixth-tier warhorse, a Floating Cloud Heavenly Horse.

It was entirely white like a cloud, with its four hooves enveloped in cloud clusters. As it galloped, it quickly took to the air, and a pair of huge wings made of clouds unfurled on either side of the Heavenly Horse.

Many people were stunned, watching a fairy-like woman riding a Heavenly Horse fly into the sky.

Many thought they had witnessed an immortal descending to the mortal world and immediately knelt down to kowtow.

In such a scene, naturally, no one dared to shoot arrows.

Not only those on the opposite side, but even Fu Qiubai in Lu Zheng's arms was dumbfounded.

She exclaimed:

"Sister Su is truly a fairy!"

Li Beixuan and Yun Xiuyi both looked on with shock and reverence.

Tantai Huanyan, however, smiled and said:

"Sister Fu, don't worry, you'll also become a fairy soon."

Fu Qiubai was also clever and immediately understood her meaning, her face flushing with embarrassment.

A middle-aged man in brocade robes appeared on the Kumu Cave stronghold. He floated into the air, which was the effect of Xiantian Gale.

"I am Cave Master Li Fengchun. Since the fairy has traveled so far, why not come into the stronghold with me for a chat?"

Su Baitao was in a bad mood and had no intention of playing along with him. She immediately shouted:

"Enough nonsense! I've come for revenge. Did you instigate the plot to seize the Secret Manual of Yijian Manor?"

"Confess truthfully. People from Kumu Cave must have been involved. Hand over all the culprits, and only the culprits will be judged. Otherwise, the entire Kumu Cave will be eradicated!"

Li Fengchun's heart skipped a beat, because he had directly authorized the matter concerning Yijian Manor.

It was rumored that the Innate One Yang Primordial Essence Cultivation Method could also help Xiantian Realm cultivators break through to the Martial Dao Golden Core level, so he naturally wanted to get his hands on it.

But of course, he wouldn't admit it directly.

Although he didn't believe Su Baitao was a fairy descending to the mortal world based on her display, such methods definitely indicated Xiantian Realm combat power.

He couldn't provoke her directly.

In a flash, he made his decision and said with a smile:

"This matter is a misunderstanding."

"It must be the people below who coveted Yijian Manor's Secret Manual and acted on their own, bringing such a bad reputation upon my Kumu Cave. Truly detestable."

"Fairy, please wait a moment. I will find these scoundrels and hand them over to you for disposal."

With that, he turned and flew towards the stronghold.

Su Baitao returned to Lu Zheng and the others. Tantai Huanyan spoke:

"It's obvious he wants to find a few people to take the blame. He'll probably come out later and say those people resisted stubbornly and have been executed, then throw us a few corpses to settle the matter."

"Kumu Cave is so far from Yijian Manor, those who pursued Li Beixuan should not have returned yet, but this guy is eager to distance himself."

"Through telepathy, I sensed he was lying. It's almost certain that he authorized the operation to destroy Yijian Manor and seize the Secret Manual."

Lu Zheng looked at her with approval upon hearing this.

"Your analytical skills are very good now."

He looked down and saw Fu Qiubai gritting her teeth, so he gently patted her back.

"Don't worry, not a single one will escape."

Saying that, he told the others:

"Let's go. We'll go in and resolve this quickly. There's no need for so much etiquette when seeking revenge."

For Lu Zheng, finding all the culprits was not difficult.

Although he couldn't read minds, he could use the Beast Taming Ring to directly control people.

He made them confess the truth one by one.

In the end, all involved personnel, including Cave Master Li Fengchun, were eliminated.

Lu Zheng also obtained various cultivation techniques and Secret Manuals from Kumu Cave.

Li Fengchun's Xiantian Realm cultivation technique was the "Withered Wood Glory Scripture," considered a Buddhist martial arts Secret Manual.

The true qi cultivated from it had the effect of seizing others' life force to replenish one's own deficiencies.

However, during the process of cultivating true qi, one's own life force would be consumed.

The more life force lost, the faster the cultivation speed!

Lu Zheng was very interested.

Because what he lacked least was life force.

With an unlimited supply of Returning Spring Pills at hand, and his physical body being so powerful now, he had to try it out quickly.

Consuming half of his life force in one go, Lu Zheng's Xiantian True Essence directly broke through to the middle stage of the Xiantian Realm.

Xiantian martial artists have three stages: early stage condenses gale, middle stage achieves five senses clear, and late stage controls the entire body with intention.

To reach the middle stage of the Xiantian Realm in a few minutes, this "Withered Wood Glory Scripture" was indeed quite remarkable.

After taking a handful of Returning Spring Pills to restore his life force, Lu Zheng temporarily stopped cultivating.

He put everyone back into the cards, then went back to eliminate the people Kumu Cave had sent to pursue Li Beixuan, and then tracked down the Xuan Ce Army's pursuers based on their trails.

The Xuan Ce Army's garrison was not far from Yijian Manor, and they had already returned to their barracks.

Lu Zheng directly found the person who led the pursuit of Li Beixuan that day.

Seeing Lu Zheng suddenly appear before him, Deputy General Cheng Yu's pupils dilated. He abruptly stood up and exclaimed in horror:

"It's you!?"

"You took Li Beixuan away, stole the Secret Manual, and now you dare to trespass into the barracks? Are you trying to rebel?"

He didn't know Lu Zheng's strength and subconsciously accused Lu Zheng of rebellion, hoping to instill fear in him.

Lu Zheng had no time to waste with him. He directly threw out a Beast Taming Ring, controlled him, and then inquired about everyone in the Xuan Ce Army who participated in the destruction of Yijian Manor.

One of them was none other than the highest-ranking officer of this Xuan Ce Army garrison, the younger brother of General Dongfang Shence, Xuan Ce Army General, First-Rank Martial Artist, Dongfang Yunzhou.

Well, he killed them all.
