321: The Spirit of Ten Thousand Poisons
The Puppet Gu had completely controlled Xiao Changfeng not long ago. After Liu Xuan advanced to a Golden Core True Person, it advanced as well, and now it could use its sub-gu to control a new Puppet.
"Bang!"
The remnant soul was extinguished, the Golden Core became completely dim, its spirituality quickly faded, and its mana turned into Spiritual Qi, beginning to return to heaven and earth.
"Sigh!" Liu Xuan sighed, and quickly placed several Restrictions on the Golden Core to prevent too much loss of spirituality.
Fan Yang would rather die than become a Puppet, but the ownerless Golden Core he left behind was still a good item.
This ownerless Golden Core could be refined into a Medicinal Pill to increase cultivation, or it could be refined into an external Golden Core to leave for his children or women to break through to the False Core Realm.
Putting away the ownerless Golden Core, Liu Xuan then collected the broken nether fire glazed lamp Magic Treasure and the Storage Ring.
Subsequently, all the Earth Dragons burrowed into the ground and disappeared, and Wang Qiao and Liu Xuan's Essence Blood Incarnation also vanished.
After a while.
People from Feiyu City's Heavenly Sword Sect, the Beast Taming Sect, and the Red Pine Sect arrived one after another, all carefully examining the battlefield.
Everyone reached a unanimous conclusion: a battle between Golden Core True Persons had occurred here just now, though the specific details of the battle were unknown.
Not long after, Su Zhi, the Golden Core True Person overseeing Feiyu City, also arrived. After carefully examining the traces and aura left in the small woods, his expression became extremely ugly, and he led his men back to the city without a word.
That day, Feiyu City immediately strengthened its guard and patrol intensity, and strictly investigated all personnel entering and exiting.
...
Red Pine Sect.
West Courtyard.
Liu Xuan picked up Fan Yang's Storage Ring to look through it. Various Spirit Stones added up to over eight million Low-Grade Spirit Stones, and with various Materials, Spirit Medicine, and miscellaneous items, the total value exceeded ten million!!
"Adding that broken nether fire glazed lamp, the harvest is close to what I got from Xiao Changfeng!"
"This guy emptied the entire treasury of the Nether Fire Sect and ran away; no wonder the Cloud Top Sect wanted to put out a bounty on him!"
It was delivered right when Liu Xuan was short on money; he was truly sensible!
Liu Xuan was in a very good mood. He smiled and sorted the items in the Storage Ring, checking for any special items, while taking out what he could use and putting what he couldn't into the Star Space treasury for storage.
"Husband, Xia Yu and all the Xia Family members have been captured. The Law Enforcement Hall is currently interrogating them." Su Wan came in to report.
Xia Yu from the Spirit Plant Hall had colluded with Fan Yang to murder Liu Xuan. When Fan Yang and Liu Xuan were fighting, he was still waiting for news in Feiyu City.
Yue Li took action personally, utilizing the Feiyu City grand formation, and he was controlled without even a chance to resist, then dragged to the Sect dungeon.
Subsequently, Su Wan led the Law Enforcement Team to immediately arrest and interrogate all Xia Family members; regardless of whether they were involved, they were arrested first.
That's how cultivation families are. When the Family is prosperous, everyone enjoys the power and status brought by the Family, but once something happens to the Family, everyone gets implicated, and sometimes they don't even know how they died.
"Interrogate the others yourselves, handle them as you see fit, but bring Xia Yu to me!" Liu Xuan ordered.
"Understood!"
Su Wan received the order and withdrew.
Not long after, she brought several maids to escort Xia Yu, whose Dantian and meridians were sealed, before Liu Xuan.
"Let me go!"
"Liu Xuan, who gave you the right to arrest me? I want to see True Person Wang! I want to see Sect Master Xiao!"
"I am the Hall Master of the Spirit Plant Hall, a Foundation Establishment Elder! Aren't you afraid that the two True Persons will blame you for laying a hand on me?!"
Xia Yu didn't know what happened in the small woods outside the city, and even less did he know that Fan Yang had been killed.
However, while he was shouting arrogantly now, he was actually panicked to the extreme inside, secretly praying that things would not develop in the worst direction.
'I shouldn't have been so impatient!'
Xia Yu regretted it deeply now. The Liu Family was extremely strange; he should have tested Wang Qiao's attitude first before plotting!
Liu Xuan waved his hand to let everyone else in the room leave first, then opened his palm, and a translucent spider appeared.
Without rushing to use the Puppet Gu on him, Liu Xuan took out Fan Yang's Golden Core and the broken nether fire glazed lamp from the Storage Ring.
"True Person Fan Yang is already dead!"
"Elder Xia, do you want to die or live?"
Xia Yu was stunned!
"This... how is this possible!!"
Reason told him this wasn't true, but the aura on the Golden Core and the Magic Treasure couldn't be more real, and the mana aura of True Person Fan Yang still lingered on them.
"Head of the Liu Family... this matter has nothing to do with me! I was also forced, please spare my life!"
A smile curled at the corners of Liu Xuan's mouth, and he said gently: "We are all our own people, of course I believe you!"
He placed the translucent spider sub-gu on his head and comforted him: "Stop resisting, let me leave something in your Divine Soul, and this matter will be considered settled!"
"Ah!!"
The sub-gu burrowed into Xia Yu's head, and he immediately showed a look of painful struggle.
His cultivation was only at the Mid-stage Foundation Establishment, and the time he could resist the sub-gu was extremely short; with even a moment of hesitation, he would lose control of his Divine Soul.
Sure, the look of struggle on his face suddenly disappeared, and he looked as if he had fainted.
A moment later, he opened his eyes again, his gaze blank, completely different from just now.
Liu Xuan waved his hand to undo the Seal on his body, then called Su Wan in and ordered:
"Elder Xia has deeply realized his mistakes and is now one of our own. Take him down to rest for a few days, then hand the interrogation matter over to him."
The Puppet Gu had advanced to the Golden Core Realm; it only took a few days to control the Mid-stage Foundation Establishment Xia Yu, and it would be most appropriate to let him handle the interrogation of this incident then.
"This... very well!"
Su Wan didn't know how Liu Xuan made Xia Yu realize his mistakes, but she had slowly become accustomed to unconditionally believing Liu Xuan's orders.
...
A few days later.
[Ding! Congratulations to the Host for the birth of your 295th descendant, with a Grade 6 Spiritual Root and a Ten Thousand Poisons Spirit Body. You have obtained a bottle of Tier 2 Peak-grade foundation establishment pill.]
[Ding! Congratulations to the Host for the birth of your first Spirit Body descendant. You are rewarded with the synchronized acquisition of the Ten Thousand Poisons Spirit Body, along with a Tier 4 Low Grade poison technique: Sutra of Infinite Calamity.]
[Ten Thousand Poisons Spirit Body: The possessor is immune to all poisons and can Cultivate by consuming poison. The effect is doubled when combined with poison techniques. (Note: Excessive use of poison will cause the user to lose control of toxicity, harming all living beings around them.)]
Zi Ling had actually given birth to a child with a Spirit Body, and it was a poison-type Spirit Body related to the Cultivation Technique she practiced!
"Immune to all poisons, can Cultivate by consuming poison, compatible with poison techniques. Although it only has a Grade 6 Spiritual Root, the stacking effect is probably not inferior to the cultivation speed of a Grade 1 or 2 Spiritual Root, and there is even a combat power bonus!"
"It's a pity that I am already immune to all poisons; this reward is a bit useless to me!"
"Husband!"
"Is there something wrong with our child?"
While Liu Xuan was immersed in the System information, Zi Ling asked suspiciously.
"What problem?" Liu Xuan asked back.
"Well..." Zi Ling stared at the baby, looking left and right, and suddenly exclaimed: "Our child is poisonous!"
