57: Chapter 57 The Robber Cultivator Follows

The Yunshou Alliance Cultivators had varying expressions; everyone remained silent after returning to the Yunmeng Ruins, making the atmosphere in the base deathly still.

"Vice Alliance Leader, this matter cannot just be left at that. If the Yunshou Alliance is unwilling to help my Fang Family seek revenge, then my Fang Family will simply withdraw."

Fang Xin's expression was terrible. Upon returning to the Yunmeng Ruins, he no longer gave Alliance Leader Situ Yu any Face.

The Yunshou Alliance was an Alliance formed by several forces in the Yunmeng Ruins, with the purpose of mutual assistance.

But now that members of the Fang Family had been killed, the Yunshou Alliance was unwilling to step in and help. Why should the Fang Family remain in this Yunshou Alliance?

It was simply asking for humiliation!

Alliance Leader Situ Yu found a chair and sat down, sneering. He said bluntly, "Utterly foolish. No wonder your Fang Family cannot develop. How many eyes were watching us at the scene just now? You wanted the Yunshou Alliance to start a fight right there and then, waiting for others to reap the benefits of the fisherman?!"

"You!" Fang Xin was furious. "It's just a small Family. For the Yunshou Alliance to annihilate them would be effortless. How much time could it possibly waste?"

"Are you blind?! Didn't you see that second-tier thunder talisman? If you're so capable, go yourself. You truly are a brainless fool. Having someone like you in the Yunshou Alliance is truly a misfortune for the Alliance."

Alliance Leader Situ Yu's voice was cold. He didn't use a single trace of spiritual Qi, yet he made Fang Xin tremble with rage.

"Can a single Thunder Talisman make the Yunshou Alliance retreat? If we encounter other enemies in the future, will the Yunshou Alliance retreat then too?"

Fang Xin raised his voice so that everyone present could hear him.

His Face turned red with anger as he observed the reactions of those around him out of the corner of his eye, trying to rouse them to support him.

But the result disappointed him; everyone maintained a cold and indifferent attitude.

After some thought, several people looked at him as if he were an idiot.

"It seems you simply cannot understand."

Alliance Leader Situ Yu shook his head in disdain, feeling it was necessary to reorganize the Yunshou Alliance. If the Alliance was filled with such foolish allies, it might as well just disband.

Pig-like teammates would only ruin the Yunshou Alliance.

"Good, good, good!"

Fang Xin said the word 'good' three times. "So this is the so-called Yunshou Alliance. Since it wasn't your people who died, you don't care about anything! In that case, my Fang Family will withdraw from the Yunshou Alliance today!"

After saying that, Fang Xin snorted coldly and turned to leave without hesitation.

Alliance Leader Situ Yu chuckled and added indifferently.

"You don't have the authority to represent the Fang Family. Remember to tell the Fang Family Head everything that happened today in full."

If the Fang Family Head agreed to leave the Yunshou Alliance after hearing the whole story, then the Fang Family would have no future.

There would be no need for the Yunshou Alliance to specifically target them; such a foolish Family head would lead the Family to destruction.

Originally, Alliance Leader Situ Yu had planned to discuss a revenge strategy with the Fang Family after returning, but now it seemed unnecessary.

...

The carriage convoy sped along the official road, with steeds kicking up clouds of dust.

Martial Artists rode alongside as escorts, constantly alert to their surroundings with extremely serious expressions.

Inside the carriage, however, the conversation was cheerful, a stark contrast to the atmosphere outside.

Qin Jiangmei learned about Wei Yan's background and experiences from her, feeling deep sympathy in her heart.

Looking at Wei Yan's upbringing, her Master was equivalent to her parents. Now that her Master's whereabouts were unknown, one could imagine how uneasy she felt.

As a woman, Qin Jiangmei could deeply empathize, so she took Wei Yan's hand and comforted her in a low voice, quickly narrowing the distance between them.

Su Xuanheng handed over all the gains from the Secret Realm to Su Yang.

"A heavenly spirit fruit tree!!"

Seeing the spirit plant inside the spirit plant Storage Pouch, Su Yang found it hard to remain calm. His eyes widened in shock, and a wave of turbulence rose in his heart.

If the existence of this spirit tree were known to the outside world, even ten Su Families combined wouldn't be enough to prevent their destruction!

A heavenly spirit fruit tree could produce heavenly spirit fruits indefinitely. Not only would Foundation Establishment Families be envious upon hearing of it, but even Golden Core Families would come to snatch it!

Su Yang suppressed the shock on his Face and pondered how to handle this spirit tree.

He had no experience in planting a heavenly spirit fruit tree, and there were no relevant records in his books.

Based on his years of experience with spirit plant, the higher the quality of the spirit plant, the more demanding its environmental requirements.

Furthermore, to plant the heavenly spirit fruit tree, he had to find a way to hide it to prevent it from being detected by outside Cultivators.

"I need to get a Second-grade Isolation Formation and then a Second-grade Spirit Gathering Formation. This spirit tree was brought out along with the spiritual soil from the Secret Realm and possesses spirituality, so it should be able to adapt to a normal environment."

Su Yang weighed his options, not ignoring the heavenly spirit fruit tree's own spirituality.

In fact, there is a theory of Bloodlines for spirit plant, similar to Yao Beast Bloodlines. spirit plant with good Bloodlines also possess spirituality and can even use secret techniques to escape.

Just like the Ice Spirit Flower that Su Xuanheng had obtained, it also possessed spirituality, though not as high as the heavenly spirit fruit tree.

"But Second-grade Formations aren't cheap..."

Su Yang had just bought a Second-grade Defensive Formation to protect the Family.

The Su Family was very wealthy, but not yet so extravagant that they could buy three Second-grade Formations at once; they needed some time to buffer.

However, Su Yang then saw the mountain of Spirit Stones and spirit plant in the Storage Pouch.

His mouth opened slightly, and he looked at Su Xuanheng, who was meditating to recover, hesitating to speak.

This was simply a massive fortune!

"The Second-grade Isolation Formation and Spirit Gathering Formation are within reach now."

A smile appeared on Su Yang's Face.

No wonder Cultivators always fought for Opportunities; the winners could earn a fortune.

If one could keep winning every time, even a pig could attain the Dao and live forever.

While Su Yang was sighing with emotion, a commotion broke out outside the carriage. Su Yang and the others' expressions shifted slightly, but they did not go out to check.

The clanging of metal reached their ears. The slaughter outside lasted only a moment before returning to silence.

"Father, there seem to be a few tails left." Su Xuanheng suddenly opened his eyes and said in a serious tone.

"No need to worry, we were prepared."

Su Yang raised his hand to signal his son to stay calm.

The fight just now was merely a probe. The other party wanted to gauge the Su Family's strength before getting serious. Martial Artists alone certainly couldn't deter these people.

Su Yang and Qin Jiangmei exchanged a glance.

The latter suddenly took out an ancient zither and placed it flat on her lap. Her slender fingers gently plucked the strings, and a melodious, ethereal tune echoed within the carriage.

Su Yang tapped gently on the side of the carriage.

The convoy immediately adjusted its direction, switching from the official road to a small path.

As expected, the Cultivators following in the shadows trailed after them.

They thought they had used their Breath Concealment Technique to its limit and wouldn't be discovered by Su Yang and the others' Divine Sense.

In reality, except for Wei Yan, everyone in the carriage had noticed these followers.

Judging by the chaotic auras on them, it wasn't hard to tell they were a group of Robber Cultivators working together. The only noteworthy ones were a few Late Stage Qi Refining Robber Cultivators; the others were no match for a Martial Arts Grandmaster.

"This target is tough. Should we call it off?"

A Robber Cultivator looked at several dead Early Stage Qi Refining Cultivators, unable to bear the sight.

It was too brutal. The Robber Cultivators had just shown themselves and hadn't even had time to release Spells before being hacked to death by the Su Family's Martial Artists.

There were also several suspected Martial Arts Grandmasters who hadn't even blinked, not taking the probe by the Early Stage Qi Refining Cultivators seriously at all.

With just their current numbers, they might not be able to take down the opponent.

"Don't panic. This old man is proficient in Formations. I can go ahead and set things up. Once those Martial Arts Grandmasters are trapped, remember to finish the battle quickly."

An old Daoist among the Robber Cultivators spoke up and took out a Formation Plate, upon which intricate Formation patterns appeared.
