Chapter 190



Sitting cross-legged on the wooden bed, Lu Qing regulated his breathing for a while to calm his energy before he began to ponder.

He mainly wanted to summarize the gains and losses of this night\'s battle.

First, there was nothing much to summarize about the opponents.

The Yuanyang Stronghold was just an ordinary stronghold of the Seven Kill Tower, although it had several assassins at the Internal Organs Realm, and was heavily guarded with numerous sentries both overt and covert.

However, to Lu Qing, who possessed Soul Power, these were as good as nonexistent.

The few Internal Organs Realm assassins, led by the man in brocade robes, did not put any pressure on him.

There was no way around it. His current accumulation was far beyond the scope of an ordinary Postnatal Realm martial artist.

Lu Qing estimated that with his current strength, within the Postnatal Realm, only the legendary peerless geniuses or Children of Fortune could pose a threat to him.

Or perhaps those elite descendants meticulously nurtured by top sects, who were endowed with various powerful secret techniques.

Other than those, even Martial Grandmasters who had tempered their Soul Power might not be his match in a normal state, let alone forcing out his various trump cards.

Even ordinary Precelestial Realm...

That would have to be tested in combat to know for sure.

The results of this retaliatory action did not surprise Lu Qing.

On the contrary, the process brought him a considerable surprise.

The biggest surprise was the effect of the Earth Talisman.

A single Earth Talisman allowed him to travel a thousand miles without fatigue; such auxiliary effects were truly astonishing.

This also made Lu Qing realize that although he could currently only store five talismans in the Brow Acupoint space, with each attribute limited to one, if used properly, these five talismans could become one of his greatest trump cards.

"If talismans condensed from elemental energy can have such divine effects, I wonder what kind of power those 【Spiritual Talismans】 condensed from spiritual energy would possess."

Lu Qing couldn\'t help but speculate.

The path of runes is a unique cultivation system.

It takes all things under heaven and earth as its teachers, thus having strong adaptability and not being constrained by the cultivation environment of the time.

During periods of abundant spiritual energy and flourishing immortal cultivation, it uses spiritual energy as the root, condensing various miraculous 【Spiritual Talismans】 to combat enemies and strengthen oneself.

In times of scarce spiritual energy, it uses elemental energy to condense elemental energy talismans, which, although less powerful than 【Spiritual Talismans】, still possess various extraordinary abilities.

Lu Qing had already experienced the power of elemental energy talismans.

Naturally, he looked forward even more to the more powerful 【Spiritual Talismans】.

With the imminent revival of spiritual energy, if the power of 【Spiritual Talismans】 is strong enough, then even if he doesn\'t switch to the path of immortal cultivation, he won\'t have to fear anyone in the future.

After pondering the path of runes, Lu Qing carefully reviewed the entire process of this operation.

After confirming that he hadn\'t overlooked anything and that his identity wasn\'t exposed, he finally lay down to rest for a while.

While Lu Qing was entering dreamland to rest, on the other side, in the Cangzhou Prefecture, the renowned Zheng family was shrouded in an oppressive atmosphere.

"Are you telling me this is Yu\'er?"

In the main hall of the Zheng residence, the stern-looking head of the Zheng family asked with a face as cold as ice.

In front of him, several guards knelt on the ground. Two corpses covered with white cloth lay in the center.

One had its brow pierced, and the other was a headless corpse with its entire head blown off.

Hearing the master\'s question, the kneeling guards trembled all over and began to shiver, none daring to speak.

As for the other guards and servants in the hall, they were even more silent, not daring to breathe too loudly, desperately lowering their presence.

Who would have thought that the second young master would die just by going out once?

If the old ancestor found out, who knows how many people would die.

"I\'m asking you, are you all deaf?"

The Zheng family head\'s face turned even colder.

Feeling the increasingly icy gaze of the family head, finally, one guard trembled and spoke with difficulty.

"Reporting to the master, when the second young master left the residence this afternoon, he was wearing this outfit, and the one accompanying him was indeed Leader Yang."

"In other words, Yu\'er was killed in less than a day after going out, without even leaving a complete body. Can any of you tell me what happened? Also, where exactly did he go this afternoon?"

Just as the guard was about to reply, an oppressive aura spread, and several figures emerged from the inner hall.

Leading them was an old lady supported by a middle-aged beautiful woman.

"Mother, why are you up?"

Upon seeing her, the head of the Zheng family hurriedly stepped forward to help support the old lady.

Seeing this, the guards and servants in the hall lowered their heads even further.

"Hmph! Why am I up? I had just laid down when Yanran came crying, saying something had happened to Yu\'er. Is this true?"

The old lady snorted coldly, and as she lightly tapped her dragon-headed cane, a muffled sound echoed, and the ground gently trembled.

It turned out that the dragon-headed cane was made of metal and extremely heavy.

The Zheng family head\'s heart skipped a beat as he glanced at his wife without leaving any trace.

He then said sorrowfully, "Mother, I just found out about this. Yu\'er has been killed!"

"What did you say!!"

Hearing this, the old lady\'s eyes widened, and a terrifying aura emanated from her.

"Yu\'er was killed. Where is he?!"

"Right in front of you. The guards said this headless corpse is Yu\'er, but I haven\'t had time to verify."

The old lady swiftly turned her head, looking at the two corpses on the ground.

When she came out earlier, she hadn\'t noticed the corpses covered with white cloth, so she couldn\'t see their attire.

Never did she expect that one of them would be her most beloved grandson.

The middle-aged beautiful woman was also shocked upon hearing this.

She had only heard from her maid that something had happened to the second young master, but she didn\'t expect he had died.

Looking at the headless body, the old lady\'s hands trembled slightly.

But she was not an ordinary person; with great willpower, she suppressed her emotions and spoke in a hoarse voice.

"Green Mother, go check."

"Yes, Miss."

At the old lady\'s gesture, a green-clad nanny with a somewhat eerie demeanor stepped forward and gently lifted the white cloth covering the headless body.

Seeing the attire on the corpse, the old lady\'s fingers trembled slightly.

She remembered that when Yu\'er came to greet her in the morning, he was wearing this outfit.

The green-clad nanny\'s hand paused for a moment, but she still gently undressed the corpse.

Then, upon seeing the distinctive birthmark on the corpse\'s chest, she stopped and covered the body again before retreating.

Returning to the old lady\'s side, she reported softly, "Miss, it is indeed Young Master Yu\'er."

The old lady staggered, almost falling.

"Mother!"

The Zheng family head, who had been watching, quickly stepped forward to support her.

"Get away!"

However, in the next moment, a terrifying aura erupted from the old lady, pushing him away.

"Who is it? Who dared to kill my Yu\'er in such a cruel manner!"

Her icy words, as if from the depths of the Nine Hells, came from her mouth, her gnashing teeth as if she wanted to devour someone.
