236: Collect some interest

Ancestor Xuan: "????"

What the hell?

What is Xici doing? Has she gone mad?

"Xici, that's the Yao Race!"

The Ancestor Xuan thought Gu Xiran had been enchanted by the Yao Race with an illusion Gu, so he quickly tried to dissuade her.

However, a smile bloomed on Gu Xiran's face.

"Ancestor Xuan, he isn't from the Yao Race, he's Changqing!"

Her calm words instantly startled the Ancestor Xuan.

What?

Chang... Changqing?

She's gone mad, she must have gone mad.

The Ancestor Xuan's Divine Sense detected nothing of Su Changqing's Qi; he was definitely a pure Yao Race Martial Warrior.

However, just then, Su Changqing took off his mask, a smile on his face.

"As expected of Revered Master, you even discovered this."

Su Changqing's face was full of smiles.

But the moment he took off his mask, the Ancestor Xuan was stunned, his eyes filled with shock.

Holy cow!

It really was Su Changqing.

"How, how, how did you distinguish him, Xici?"

The Ancestor Xuan was a Saint Realm Peak Martial Artist, with incredibly powerful Divine Sense, yet he hadn't found any clues about Su Changqing.

But Gu Xiran could see through it with just one glance.

It was simply unbelievable.

"A feeling."

Gu Xiran showed a gentle smile. The moment Su Changqing appeared, all the pain and tension in her heart instantly dissipated.

She knew Su Changqing wouldn't die.

"A feeling?"

The Ancestor Xuan was stunned, shaking his head and no longer pondering it; he couldn't comprehend it.

Perhaps, this was the bond between Revered Master and Disciple.

"Where have you been these past few days? What exactly happened that day?"

Gu Xiran looked up, meeting Su Changqing's eyes as she asked gently, a stark contrast to her earlier murderous demeanor.

Su Changqing didn't hesitate, directly telling his Revered Master everything that had happened that day. Of course, the matter with Senior Sister was not mentioned.

He would find another opportunity to explain what happened with Senior Sister.

Now was clearly not the time to clarify.

After hearing Su Changqing's description, both of them were inwardly shocked.

The siege by the Myriad Races, which should have been a certain death situation, was broken by Su Changqing.

Not only did he severely wound the Martial Artists of all races, but he also caused the God Race and Myriad Races to fight each other, successfully faking his own death.

It could be said that this move was extremely terrifying.

Even the Ancestor Xuan couldn't help but praise him.

"So that's how it is. This way, Changqing, you are dead in the hearts of the Martial Artists of all races. After returning to the Sect, cultivate in seclusion for a period. Once your strength achieves a Breakthrough, you can reappear and seek revenge. Wonderful, truly wonderful!"

The Ancestor Xuan laughed heartily.

Su Changqing smiled slightly, and Gu Xiran, beside him, also felt quite satisfied. It was good that Changqing was alright.

"Changqing, let's return to the Sect together then."

Now that Su Changqing had returned, Gu Xiran had also regained her composure and wanted to return to the Sect with Su Changqing.

However, Su Changqing glanced at Tiangui City not far away, a slight smile appearing on his face.

"No rush, Revered Master."

"Although I need to conceal my identity, these Ghost Race Martial Warriors put in a lot of effort to encircle and kill me. Since I'm here, I'll collect some interest."

Collect some interest?

The two didn't understand Su Changqing's plan.

He waved his hand, and a ball of Burning Sky Azure Flame appeared in his palm.

This was formed by the Fusion of Nine Nether Bone Spirit Fire and Red Lotus Karma Fire, its power already surpassing the realm of Emperor-level Exotic Fire. Once unleashed, it would be extremely terrifying.

Gu Xiran and the Ancestor Xuan both subconsciously swallowed, sensing the terrifying nature of this Exotic Fire.

Su Changqing waved his hand, and the Burning Sky Azure Flame instantly scattered, swirling in the air. Immediately after, the Burning Sky Azure Flame transformed into countless fireballs, beginning to fall rapidly.

Tens of thousands of fireballs descended from the sky, instantly turning the originally dark night sky a fiery red.

Scorching!

Terrifying!

"Let's go. From now on, Tiangui City will no longer exist."

Su Changqing said with a smile.

Although this Burning Sky Azure Flame, without his control, couldn't cause widespread fatal damage to Saint Realm Experts, with countless Burning Sky Azure Flames falling from the sky, Tiangui City would definitely be scorched into a sea of fire in a short amount of time.

Even if hundreds of Saint Realm Martial Artists made a move, it would be difficult to control the fire in a short period.

The most crucial point was that the power of this flame had a restraining effect on the Ghost Race, so even the Ghost Race's Saint Realm Experts would likely find it difficult to deal with these countless Burning Sky Azure Flames.

Gu Xiran was stunned for a moment, only to see Tiangui City instantly turn into a sea of fire. Countless Saint Realm Experts flew out from the sky, wanting to extinguish the fire, but this fire was not ordinary fire; it was like maggots in the bone, difficult to extinguish.

"Good!"

Gu Xiran chuckled lightly. Soon, the three of them left the place together.

Tonight, Tiangui City was destined to be filled with cooked ghosts.

Cooked, as in thoroughly burned.

Even a Saint Realm Expert, if not careful, could very likely perish.

.........

Two days later.

Su Changqing and the other two had already returned to the Tai Xuan Sect territory.

The three of them were not in a hurry along the way, traveling discreetly and not drawing attention.

The news of Tiangui City being burned by the Ghost Race spread throughout the entire Heavenly Martial Continent. Countless Ghost Race Martial Warriors perished there, and even five Saint Realm Experts of the Ghost Race died. The entire Tiangui City was burned into scorched earth.

No one knew who had done it.

Several Ghost Kings of the Ghost Race were furious, frantically searching for traces but finding nothing.

But Su Changqing didn't care about any of this.

For him, this fire was just an appetizer.

When he achieved a Breakthrough, he would sweep across the entire Myriad Races.

None of those who tried to kill him would live.

"Changqing, you've finally returned! I've been so worried these past few days, unable to sleep, afraid something might happen to you!"

Inside the Tai Xuan Sect's main hall, Sect Master Mo Ming's face was filled with excitement.

Although Jiang Jiusheng had returned and reported a few days ago, hearing about it was one thing, and actually seeing Su Changqing in person was another.

Now that he saw Su Changqing return safely, a huge weight was lifted from Mo Ming's heart, and he finally felt at ease.

Around them, the various Peak Revered Masters also showed joyful expressions.

"Don't worry, Sect Master. There's no one born on the Heavenly Martial Continent who can kill me yet."

He joked.

Everyone laughed heartily.

Soon, the conversation in the main hall became lively.

However, because Su Changqing still needed to conceal the news of his death, his return alive was not told to any Disciple, only the various Peak Revered Masters knew.

Night.

Back at Lingyun Peak.

During this time, Purple Yang Immortal, Black Water Immortal Master, Ape Mang, Eagle Yang, and Wang Cai had not been idle, searching everywhere for Su Changqing's whereabouts. But they all believed in Su Changqing's strength, knowing that he couldn't die so easily.

After Su Changqing returned, all five of their hearts finally settled down.

After comforting the five of them, he gave them some instructions and also provided them with some Medicinal Pills and resources to help them achieve a Breakthrough in their cultivation as soon as possible.

Late at night, Su Changqing summoned the Ancestor Xuan.

"Changqing, why did you call me so late?"
