392: Killing Sima Cheng, Su Changqing's tricky operation

Su Changqing rummaged through his body, finally unearthing two spatial rings, both with considerable internal space.

"Not bad, as expected of someone in the Immortal Monarch Realm; he really has a lot of good stuff."

A smile appeared on Su Changqing's face.

These things were enough for Gu Xiran and the other three to cultivate for a period of time.

They would make perfect gifts for them.

After completing all of this, Su Changqing quickly flew towards the Immortal Boat.

Upon seeing Su Changqing still alive, Azure Wind Daoist and the other two immediately showed excitement.

"Dao Child Su, you're not dead!"

"That's right, what about that old Sima scoundrel?"

The three eagerly questioned him.

Su Changqing said indifferently:

"That old fellow is already dead."

Dead!?

Hearing this, the three immediately looked shocked.

One must know that even if Sima Gan's strength was weaker, he was still a genuine powerhouse of the Immortal Monarch Realm.

As for Su Changqing, he was only a True Immortal.

The two were separated by two major Realms.

Yet Sima Gan had actually died at Su Changqing's hands.

This was unbelievable.

Ignoring the three's stunned expressions, Su Changqing looked towards Immortal Lord Cangtian.

At this moment, Immortal Lord Cangtian and Sima Cheng were locked in an intense battle, fighting fiercely.

It seemed difficult to determine a victor anytime soon.

After all, although Immortal Lord Cangtian, as a Body Cultivator Immortal Lord, was considerably stronger than an ordinary Immortal Monarch, his opponent was no ordinary person either, being a top-tier expert in the Middle Stage of the Immortal Lord Realm, and not easily defeated.

However...

With a rogue like Su Changqing, it was hard to say.

He sneered, and the Sun Shooting Bow materialized in his hand.

Immediately after, he drew the bowstring, aimed, and shot towards Sima Cheng.

"Whoosh!"

The arrow pierced the air, heading straight for the opponent.

Seemingly sensing danger, Sima Cheng waved his hand, and the arrow was instantly shattered.

Although the Sun Shooting Bow was of high grade, Su Changqing was, after all, only at the True Immortal Realm, so it was naturally difficult to injure Sima Cheng, who was in the Middle Stage of the Immortal Lord Realm.

"Su Changqing, you think you can ambush me with just this much strength?"

He sneered, looking at Su Changqing with a hint of disdain.

"Is that so?"

Su Changqing grinned, and then, as if performing a magic trick, he pulled out a corpse.

The moment the corpse appeared, Sima Cheng's heart trembled, and his pupils dilated with intense disbelief.

It was this sudden moment of hesitation that Immortal Lord Cangtian seized.

"Boom!"

He punched out, landing squarely on Sima Cheng's chest.

The opponent was instantly sent flying, spitting out a mouthful of fresh blood, his pupils constricting sharply.

After he regained his composure, his gaze fixed intensely on Su Changqing.

"How is this possible? How could Sima Gan die at your hands!"

Sima Cheng exclaimed in shock.

One must know that Sima Gan was an Immortal Lord of the Sima Family, no ordinary person; how could he just die at Su Changqing's hands, and his death appeared extremely gruesome?

He must have suffered some inhumane torture before he died.

"This guy, his strength was mediocre; I just used a small trick and killed him. Your Sima Family is really a bunch of good-for-nothings."

Su Changqing said with a mischievous smile.

"You!!"

Sima Cheng almost spat out a mouthful of blood from anger.

Just then, Immortal Lord Cangtian seized the opportunity and fiercely attacked the opponent, a punch landing that forced the opponent back once more.

Su Changqing didn't hesitate either and immediately began his verbal assault.

"Sima Cheng, tell me, if you go back alive, how will you face the Sima Family? Sima Yan is dead, and this good-for-nothing is also dead. Tsk tsk tsk, I'm afraid your Sima Family's losses this time are not small, are they?"

"......."

Su Changqing's words, one after another, fell into Sima Cheng's ears.

The latter's face became extremely grim, and his attacks gradually became chaotic and disorganized, being hit by Immortal Lord Cangtian several times in a row.

Su Changqing hid in the distance, his face full of smiles.

All of this, of course, was intentional on his part.

The reason he killed Sima Gan and brought his corpse back, without letting the Heavenly Blood Vine devour it, was precisely to disrupt Sima Cheng's mental state.

After all, Sima Cheng's strength was not to be underestimated. With his current strength, without exposing the Zhuxian Sword Formation, he had no qualifications to fight the opponent. Only by using a psychological tactic could he cause him harm.

As expected, this method proved effective.

Sima Cheng's mental state had already been disturbed, and his defeat was only a matter of time.

While Su Changqing continued his verbal assault, Sima Cheng, subjected to continuous attacks, was already severely wounded.

Just then, a flying knife whizzed out.

This was the Slashing Immortal Flying Knife unleashed by Su Changqing.

Because Su Changqing had been constantly distracting him with words, and coupled with his severe injuries and extremely poor state at the moment, he failed to detect the Slashing Immortal Flying Knife.

By the time the flying knife approached, it was already too late for him to notice.

"Bang!"

The flying knife plunged into Sima Cheng's chest, causing him immediate pain, as if he felt his life force rapidly draining away.

At this moment, Immortal Lord Cangtian also unleashed a devastating blow without hesitation.

"Boom!"

A punch struck Sima Cheng's head, and before he could even let out a mournful cry, he was directly blasted into a mist of blood.

He was dead.

He was dead beyond any doubt.

Su Changqing, not far away, felt great heartache seeing Immortal Lord Cangtian blast Sima Cheng into a mist of blood.

This was an excellent tonic for the Heavenly Blood Vine, and its loss was naturally regrettable.

However, being able to kill the opponent was also a good thing.

Immortal Lord Cangtian said with a chuckle:

"Changqing, thanks to you, if it weren't for you, it would have been difficult for me to kill him."

Indeed, if not for Su Changqing, it would have been extraordinarily difficult for Immortal Lord Cangtian to kill Sima Cheng.

Su Changqing smiled and said:

"This guy must be very rich; let's loot him first."

Immediately after, the master and disciple began to loot.

It must be said that Sima Cheng, as the second-in-command of the Sima Family, indeed possessed far more treasures than Sima Gan, causing both master and disciple's eyes to gleam with avarice.

This wave, a huge profit.

Soon, after the two cleaned up the battlefield, they quickly left the area aboard the Immortal Boat.

After all, this was still within the Central Province, and if discovered by members of the Sima Family or other forces, it would ultimately lead to trouble.

The Immortal Boat sped towards the Immortal Wind Sect.

Along the way, Immortal Lord Cangtian was quite curious.

How exactly did his disciple manage to kill Sima Gan?

One must know that the opponent was an undeniable Immortal Lord, and his strength was absolutely not weak.

This kid had quite a few tricks up his sleeve; it seemed that even on the Ten Thousand Domains Competition arena, he hadn't needed to use his full power.

However, Immortal Lord Cangtian was sensible enough not to ask too many questions, pretending ignorance.

After all, this matter was Su Changqing's secret.

"Changqing, let's split Sima Cheng's spoils of war together."

"Alright!"

Su Changqing said with a chuckle.

Soon, the master and disciple, along with Azure Wind Daoist and the other two, began to divide the spoils.

Azure Wind Daoist and the other two did not participate in the battle, so each received ten percent.

Su Changqing took thirty percent, and Immortal Lord Cangtian, who contributed the most, took forty percent.
