41: Chapter 41 The Fated Villain's Daughter, Feng Cai'er

Qingshan Town, the Chen Family.

The people gathered here were not like the shopkeepers of the small shops from before.

Many among them were Intermediate forces within Qingshan Town, and the largest force among them was none other than the Chen Family, who had plotted this assassination attempt.

The Chen Family even possessed two Golden Core Stage Cultivators.

One at the Golden Core Stage Middle Stage, and one at the Golden Core Stage Early Stage.

"After touching this piece of the cake, he still wants to leave unscathed? In my opinion, he is delusional!"

"You heard how they exaggerated it, claiming he could kill a Golden Core Stage Cultivator with a single blow. If he truly had such strength, he would be a king or overlord upon entering Qingshan Town."

"Actually, I feel it is very likely that they are a force secretly supported by the Xuanwu Chamber of Commerce, taking the opportunity to strike and consolidate the various forces in Qingshan Town to complete their integration."

"Even if the assassin from the Killing Shadow Tower fails and is captured or killed, all the secret evidence left behind will point the finger at the Han Family. It will also rid me of the hatred in my heart."

"Brother, this brilliant plan is excellent; it perfectly completes a risk hedge, leaving us in an invincible position."

Just as they were discussing and thinking about how to divide the spoils after eradicating Gu Qingge and the Shengdan Hall, the surrounding Aura suddenly changed drastically!

A cold glint flashed by, and the longsword of the Imperial Blood Demon Cavalry had already pierced through the skull of one of them.

Fresh blood sprayed out, instantly splashing onto the bodies of those nearby.

"Everyone, you certainly have a good mood. Being able to gather together so openly saves us from having to search house by house and wasting our efforts for nothing."

"You, how did you find us?" the head of the Chen Family, who was in the lead, asked in panic.

His own strength was at the Foundation Establishment Stage Peak, which was on par with the members of the Imperial Blood Demon Cavalry present.

However, when comparing their true combat capabilities, even if ten of him were tied together, they could not withstand the attack of a single Imperial Blood Demon Cavalry member.

At this moment, the leader of the Imperial Blood Demon Cavalry smiled cruelly, like a ferocious beast descending upon this place.

"Because the people of the Han Family have already been slaughtered by us. As you have long-standing grudges with them, you naturally became the next target."

In an instant, everyone gathered here understood.

It turned out they were all wrong, and wrong in an outrageous way.

Is Gu Qingge a Demonic Cultivator?

No, this is clearly a butcher who kills without blinking.

He does not need evidence, he only needs a reason to slaughter!

Moreover, the appearance of these Imperial Blood Demon Cavalry also proved that he secretly controlled a force that was not weak!

They had miscalculated.

The Imperial Blood Demon Cavalry did not waste words with them. Relying on their superb killing techniques, even though their own strength was at the Foundation Establishment Stage Peak, they could easily capture and kill Golden Core Stage Cultivators through combined attacks.

Among those present, the strongest was only at the Foundation Establishment Stage Peak. Although they resisted, they eventually turned into severed limbs and broken bodies, scattered throughout the residence.

As for the two Old Ancestors of the Chen Family, who were Golden Core Stage Cultivators, seeing that the situation was not right, they wanted to flee, but in the end, they could not escape the fate of being killed.

After dealing with everything, the Imperial Blood Demon Cavalry did not collect their bodies, but instead left this bloody scene of slaughter exactly as it was, waiting for a "fated person" to discover it.

...

"Master, everyone involved has been completely eliminated."

"Well done." Gu Qingge sipped some clear tea, his eyes showing little emotion.

It was as if the deaths of those people were as simple as a group of ants being crushed to death.

"After some insignificant people have been taken care of, presumably that Half-step Nascent Soul Stage Cultivator will find it hard to sit still, right?"

"The wind and rain are approaching, and the frost fills the pavilion..."

Just as Gu Qingge was wondering when that person's invitation would arrive, Disciple Xie Lingyun entered the residence and handed a gold-stamped invitation to Gu Qingge.

"The person who came is the Pavilion Master of the Sifang Pavilion in Qingshan Town; he delivered this invitation personally."

Gu Qingge knew very well that the Sifang Pavilion was a force under that person's command.

As for this Pavilion Master of the Sifang Pavilion, he was only the person in charge of Qingshan Town on the surface.

The one who truly manipulated everything was that Half-step Nascent Soul Stage Cultivator!

"A Hongmen Banquet, is it?"

"Let's go and take a look." Gu Qingge raised an eyebrow and said softly.

Qingshan Town is adjacent to the Hundred Thousand Monster Mountain Range, which is one of the ways Gu Qingge intends to control the Yao Beast resources for his own use.

After all, the System's appraisal would not be fake; as the Demon Empress Ji Zixue reborn, she must harbor secrets.

Although he did not know whether the other party had Transmigrated back to the past or if her Soul had Transmigrated to another world.

But it is undeniable that, with her Moon Howling Wolf Yao Beast species and her methods as a Demon Empress, if she could be made to rule a region, she would definitely be one of the strongest assets by his side.

"Let's go, Yanyun, let's go take a look." Gu Qingge said towards a hidden spot in the shadows.

Going to the banquet alone was impossible.

Although he had confidence in his own strength, and by revealing all his trump cards, he could remain on equal footing even before a Half-step Nascent Soul Stage Cultivator.

However, the point he was worried about was whether there was someone behind the other party.

The one standing behind a Half-step Nascent Soul Stage Cultivator would be, at the very least, a true Nascent Soul Stage Cultivator.

Facing an opponent of this Rank, after a steady weighing in his heart, Gu Qingge believed he did not have much chance of winning or remaining in an invincible position if facing them head-on.

Of course, if it truly reached the point where he had to risk his life, if the other party wanted to put him to death, they would also have to break a mouthful of sharp teeth.

The location of this banquet was set in the Sifang Pavilion.

Moreover, it was on the top floor of the Sifang Pavilion.

The Pavilion Master of the Sifang Pavilion was only a guide; after truly arriving at the main hall, he found an old man with an immortal demeanor sitting in the main seat.

The Aura around him was as silent as stagnant water, with a faint Nascent Soul Stage pressure radiating out.

It was just that this pressure was exceptionally unstable.

It was like a kind of empty and unsubstantial Aura.

This person was the actual ruler of Qingshan Town, the Half-step Nascent Soul Stage Cultivator, Feng Qingli.

And sitting below the hall was a woman.

Three thousand strands of dark hair cascaded like snow, and a pair of phoenix eyes contained noble majesty.

A green dress wrapped around her exquisite figure; her jade-like skin was fair, and her demeanor was outstanding.

At this moment, the System's notification sound also came leisurely.

[Ding]

[Detected Daughter of the Destiny Villain Feng Caier, triggering a random task.]

[System loading]

[Random task: Invite Feng Caier to the Land of Instant, open the Undying Divine Treasury. Reward: One Hundred Thousand Evil Ghost Souls, can be used to enrich the Ten Thousand Soul Banner.]

Daughter of the Destiny Villain, huh?

It seems she should be a BOSS-level obstacle on the Child of Destiny Mu Ling's path to Cultivate, serving as an implicit motivation for his growth.

Through the information collected previously, Gu Qingge naturally knew of this woman who dared to love and hate.

Facing her fiancé and his unreasonable cousin, she chose to aggressively call off the engagement, severing this marriage born from Family interest alliances.

Towards her, Gu Qingge held a trace of appreciation in his heart.

Not far away, although Feng Caier was initially attracted by Gu Qingge's peerlessly handsome appearance, what drew her attention even more was the Dragon-patterned Jade Pendant hanging at his waist.
