747: Chapter 747 Assassination Target
[After much detouring, you and Zhulong stepped onto the Teleportation Array heading to Demon Suppression Pass.]
[With a flash of the light pillar from the Demon Suppression Pass Teleportation Array, you and Zhulong materialized, following tens of thousands of people around you out of the Teleportation Plaza.]
[This Teleportation Plaza was more than twice as large as Tianshu City, and it was said to have been built during the Immortal-Demon War back then, capable of transporting one hundred thousand people at once.]
[Although it was no longer needed nowadays, the grand scale was still there, letting people know at a glance that Demon Suppression Pass was different from other places.]
[Although you were already at the Mahayana stage, seeing the prosperity of the Immortal Domain with your own eyes still made you unable to help taking a few extra glances.]
[Along this journey, every time you passed through a city or a Teleportation Array, you would change your appearance and then sweep through with your Divine Thought, like a bumpkin entering the city for the first time, wanting to look at everything.]
[As you walked, Zhulong suddenly stopped, glanced at you, and lowered its voice a bit: "Senior, then I… should take my leave?"]
[You glanced at it and waved your hand: "Go on, be more careful in the future and don't get caught again."]
[Zhulong's eyes turned red, its voice carrying a hint of choked emotion: "Yes, Senior."]
[As the words fell, it flicked its tail, its figure flashed, and it disappeared.]
[You continued walking forward, preparing to find a place to stay first and sort out what to do next.]
[As you walked, you saw a restaurant—]
[Wangyao Tower.]
[You entered the building and asked for a top-tier room. After entering the room and closing the door, with a thought, you moved Liu Jinfeng and Liu Ruyan from the qingming space in front of you.]
["Greetings, Young Master." The two of them cupped their fists in unison.]
["What do you think about me destroying the Liu Clan?" Your tone was calm.]
[They had long received many messages about the Liu Clan being destroyed. Although the two of them had the Slave Contract planted by you, their memories were still intact, so you didn't beat around the bush and asked directly.]
[Liu Jinfeng spoke first: "Young Master destroying the Liu Clan naturally has your reasons. In this Immortal Domain, such matters are common to begin with. Although I feel a bit uncomfortable inside, I still think what you did is right."]
[Liu Ruyan nodded along, her tone resolute: "Yes, Young Master. Even if you asked me to do it myself, I would do it."]
["Very well, I have a task for you two."]
["What task?"]
["Go to various places in the Immortal Domain, find the scattered people of the Liu Clan, and assassinate all of them." Your tone was bland. "For now, do not touch the people of the Heavenly Palace; clean up the other branch lineages first."]
[Pausing for a moment, you added another sentence: "If you can't beat them, send a message to me."]
["Understood." The two cupped their fists in unison.]
["Also," your voice dimmed slightly, "keep an eye out for these types of people for me…"]
["Those who had their engagement broken, those who appear cowardly but are actually ruthless, those who conceal their cultivation with various methods and lay low, those who were originally geniuses and suddenly became good-for-nothings…"]
[You blurted out more than a dozen characteristics all at once.]
[Liu Ruyan was slightly startled: "Why pay special attention to these people?"]
["Don't ask, just do what should be done." Your tone was faint.]
["Understood."]
["Go."]
[The two nodded, leaped off the balcony, merged into the crowd on the street, and walked toward the Teleportation Plaza.]
[After watching the two leave, you moved Qin Yu from inside the qingming mirror in front of you.]
[She stood in front of you, a few heads shorter than you, shrinking her neck and not daring to raise her head.]
[You smiled: "Little sis, are you afraid of me?"]
["N-No… no." Her voice trembled, her eyes dodging.]
[Qingming already knew about the pseudo-artifact spirit being erased.]
[Qingming had also told Qin Yu everything you did in Tianshu City—annihilating the Liu Clan Immortal Family, slaughtering millions of Cultivators with a flick of your hand.]
[Qin Yu knew clearly in her heart that the you before her was no longer her good-for-nothing brother.]
[You smiled, raised your hand, and moved the artifact spirit Qingming out of her body as well.]
[Qingming turned into a palm-sized humanoid mist, cowering behind Qin Yu, also trembling.]
[You glanced at it and directly handed over a nine-leaf green lotus: "Qingming, this is a nine-leaf green lotus, which can help you master the qingming mirror faster."]
["S-S-Senior…" Qingming's voice trembled. "To be rewarded without merit is unearned; I only beg you to spare my little master. I am willing to be a slave or a maid and await your orders."]
["Don't overthink it." Your tone was bland as you casually spouted nonsense: "I come from the future, yet I am still my original self. Can't you sense it?"]
["C-C-Can't sense it." Qingming's voice was very low.]
[You smiled, revealing a trace of your Primordial Spirit and Bloodline aura, before withdrawing it again.]
[Sensing that trace of aura, Qingming visibly breathed a sigh of relief: "No wonder you wanted to destroy the Liu Clan."]
[Pausing, its voice lowered by a few fractions: "Senior, what do you plan to do with those more than ten thousand Cultivators in the Desolate Heaven Continent?"]
[Naturally, you knew who it was talking about.]
[Those people's cultivation was at most at the Golden Core stage, and since the Secret Realm exit was already gone, they couldn't get out either.]
[You thought for a moment and looked at Qingming: "Keep them. If anyone acts lawlessly, just kill them directly."]
["Understood, understood!"]
[For Qingming, once it completely mastered the main body of the qingming mirror, it would be a Heavenly Dao-like existence in the Desolate Heaven Continent. Let alone Golden Core and Foundation Establishment, even a Nascent Soul would have nowhere to escape.]
[By doing this, you considered it paying off a favor for someone.]
[At least you could reconcile it in your own heart.]
["Alright, I won't say any more nonsense." You straightened your expression. "Continue protecting my sister and go with her to Wuji Immortal City to Cultivate. Do not come out of seclusion until you reach the Mahayana Peak."]
[You gave detailed instructions once again, but did not let Qin Yu rebuild Fengyun Pavilion, only having her Cultivate a batch of people for you—Cheng Rongrong, Xue Miaoyun, Song Yang, Song Yu, Chu Chu, Fragrant Lord Qiao, Ye Wuhen, and dozens of others.]
[With these dozens of people, it was enough.]
[After finishing, your Divine Thought probed into Qin Han's spatial ring—mountains of Magic Treasures, Spirit Treasures, Spirit Stones, and Heaven And Earth Treasures. If Qin Han ate a portion every day, it would be enough for it to eat for hundreds of years.]
[You took out dozens of spatial rings, packed with sufficient resources, and handed them to Qin Yu along with the main body of the qingming mirror and the nine-leaf green lotus: "These are enough for you guys to Cultivate for several hundred years. I will send you subsequent resources later."]
[Qin Yu reached out to take them, and with a sweep of her Divine Thought across the qiankun ring, she exclaimed: "Oh my dear mother… The Liu Clan Immortal Family is truly wealthy."]
[She swallowed, her eyes glowing.]
["Remember, the qingming mirror must not be exposed. If you encounter trouble, send a message to me." Your tone was serious.]
["Understood, understood." She happily put away the items, looked up at you, and said: "In the future, let alone making me call you brother, making me call you Old Ancestor is fine too."]
[Naturally, she understood that both the qingming mirror and the Immortal Slaying Sword Art were inextricably linked to the destruction of the Liu Clan.]
[You smiled and raised your hand to pat her head.]
[She shrank her neck, her body trembling slightly.]
["It's been hard on you." Your voice lowered slightly: "From now on with big bro here, no one will bully you."]
[She pursed her lips, her eye sockets turned red, and her voice choked: "Mm-mm-mm."]
["Go on." You waved your hand.]
[She looked up at you and took a deep breath: "Thank you, bro."]
[You smiled and nodded.]
[She turned her head to glance at Qingming: "Little Qingming, let's go."]
[Qingming didn't say much, turning into a wisp of flowing light that drilled into her Sea of Consciousness, concealing her aura.]
[Qin Yu leaped down from the pavilion, without looking back, and walked toward the Teleportation Plaza.]
[Watching her retreating figure, you raised your hand and flicked your finger, a wisp of Sword Dao Origin power silently clinging to her back.]
