Chapter 97: Cao Lide's Dilemma, The Temple Envoy Arrives, Wuji Sect Envoy Arrives!

  Just now, he absorbed more than 1,800 years of power in one breath, causing Tang Qing's dantian to reach a state of saturation. At this moment, even all his meridians were filled with true energy. Previously, at the Wei family, he had absorbed more than 2,000 years of power in one breath, causing his body to twist and contort. At that time, Tang Qing felt that the true energy was about to reach saturation, but it was still unable to break through the yuan boundary. This time, he took the risk again and absorbed directly, causing his dantian to tremble.

  Everyone knows that the earth's body is difficult to shake, but they don't know that before the treasure body forms a treasure image, it can only withstand a slightly greater force. This is why Tang Qing dares to do so. If anyone else were to form the earth's body and cultivate the Swallowing Heaven and Earth technique, let alone absorb the power of over 3,000 years, they would probably explode their physical body with just 600 years of power. However, Tang Qing is different because he not only has the earth's body but also the body of a Nine-Calamity Scattered Immortal. Therefore, he dares to break the laws of heaven and earth and wildly absorb.

  Tang Qing used to be absolutely unwilling to touch the boundaries of the Heavenly Laws, but since he cultivated the second Origin, he felt that the Heavenly Laws were nothing special. First, he broke through the boundary walls and crossed the chasm of power, which was all about breaking the Heavenly Laws. However, Tang Qing knew that the Heavenly Laws were extremely terrifying, and if one wasn't careful, they would suffer heavenly punishment. Moreover, just now, he had a faint feeling of danger, and if his guess was correct, it should be because the over 3,000 years of power in his body had broken the Heavenly Laws, so he was targeted by the heavenly punishment.

  That's why he must refine the true energy absorbed as soon as possible, otherwise once the heavenly punishment comes down, it will be over.

  At this moment, he stood on the holy stage, his eyes slightly closed, and his eyebrows were arrogant, with infinite anger in his expression.

  On the side, Shang Guan Xue watched this young man in front of her, and her eyes were slightly dazed, sinking into his mystery and forgetting everything.

  "Director Cao! What are you hesitating about? Let's take action and kill him!"

  The master of the Wuji Hall saw Cao Liqueen staring at Tang Qing, his heart filled with anger. Lord Cao, your cultivation is so high, the demon yuan in your body has already condensed into a yuan species, the true yuan is surging, and you have a magic treasure in hand, and even the Holy Temple is backing you up, why haven't you made a move yet!

  Cao Lique was hesitant and couldn't determine the identity of this young man. Although he looked very much like his senior from fifty years ago on Mount Wangu, Cao Lique couldn't believe that his senior could resume cultivation again, which was simply impossible.

  He carefully took out a talisman and crushed it, the owner of the Wujiguan next to him saw the talisman, a flash of surprise in his eyes, he knew this was a message token that could transmit information, it seemed that Lord Cao had informed the people in the Holy Temple.

  "Still, Magistrate Cao is wise!"

  The master of Wuji Hall secretly scolded himself for being too impulsive and was startled by the young man in front of him.

  Cao Liqueen didn't dare to take another step forward, stopping at a distance of ten meters from the holy stage. He stared like this, but the more he looked, the more uneasy and terrified his heart became. He couldn't bear this torture anymore, so he cautiously spoke up and asked, "You... who are you?!"

  At this time, Tang Qing's eyes were closed, his expression was lonely and proud, motionless like a statue.

  At this time, a voice suddenly came, "Lian Ge, I have something to say to you."

  Although the voice was very faint, it was still heard by Cao Liqueen, Wujiguanzhuren and Dachengzhuren. The three of them looked over and suddenly discovered a woman quietly approaching. The woman was Liu Piaopiao, her expression panicked as she walked towards them, occasionally glancing up at Tang Qing who stood on the holy platform.

  "Liu Mei, where have you been?" The city master felt a surge of joy upon seeing Liu Piaopiao.

  "Let's hurry!" Liu Piaopiao pulled the Lord of the City, wanting to run back, but the Lord of the City looked confused, "Liu Mei, what are you doing? Now Cao is here, and Fang from the Holy Temple will arrive soon. At that time, this kid will definitely die without a place to bury his body!"

  "Shut up!" Liu Piaopiao's face turned pale with fright, and she quickly covered the city master's mouth. She was secretly biting her teeth, but didn't dare to shout loudly, fearing that it would startle that person. If it weren't for the fact that the city master had saved her life back then, she wouldn't have taken the risk of coming here to persuade him.

  "Waaaah!" The city master struggled free, shouting, "Liu Mei, Lord Cao is here, don't be rude! When the people from the Sacred Temple arrive, we'll work together to tear that little brat into a million pieces!"

  "You!"

  Liu Piaopiao's face was ashen, but she couldn't bear to see the city master die like this. To repay him for saving her life back then, Liu Piaopiao took a deep breath, seemingly calming her inner fears, and walked towards the holy platform. With a thud, she knelt on the ground, trembling as she pleaded, "Tang, Tang Gongzi, Lian Ge was only temporarily blinded by benefits, his heart is not bad, please forgive him! Piaopiao will kowtow to you on his behalf and admit his guilt!"

  Liu Piaopiao finished speaking and immediately kowtowed to admit his mistake, with an attitude so sincere that it could be witnessed by heaven and earth.

  This scene fell into the eyes of Shangguan Xue, causing her beautiful eyes to flash with deep surprise. As for Dacheng and Wujiguan, they were both bewildered and couldn't understand what was wrong with Liu Feifei. Dacheng suddenly rushed over and grabbed Liu Feifei, shouting, "Liu Mei, quickly get up! What are you kowtowing to this kid for? Have you gone crazy? The people from the Holy Temple will arrive soon, he's definitely going to die!"

  "Shut up!" Liu Piaopiao shouted in a low voice, pinning the Great City Master's head to the ground. The Great City Master was no match for her and couldn't resist, so Liu Piaopiao continued to press down on him while kowtowing to Tang Jing and begging for mercy.

  Beside him, Cao Lique saw this scene, his expression even more complex, breathing more urgent. He knew that Liu Piaopiao was a member of the Jingguai tribe, with an open mind and extraordinary intelligence, cautious in her heart, and extremely skilled in handling affairs. Her ability to recognize people was also exceptional. Over the years, whether it was the master of the Shengtang Hall or the master of the Wujiguan, they were all manipulated by Liu Piaopiao to follow Cao Lique.

  At this moment, seeing Liu Feifei kowtowing to the young man without any regard for her own dignity, Cao Lique's originally somewhat suspicious and hesitant heart began to waver. His mouth twitched unnaturally as he lowered his voice and asked again, "You... who are you exactly!"

  Tang Qing still stood there motionless, his expression unchanged!

  As time ticked by, Cao Lique's anxiety grew, his forehead began to sweat, his face twisted and convulsed, his legs trembled uncontrollably, and his breathing became more rapid. He could no longer bear the oppressive silence, and with a thud, he fell to his knees.

  "Junior Cao Ligong didn't know that you had arrived, junior..." Cao Ligong wanted to beg for mercy, but his mind was a complete blank, and his heart was even more occupied by fear, he simply didn't know what to say, only continuously kowtowing. "Junior has been searching for your whereabouts all these years, just to repay the debt of gratitude for saving my life back then, junior..." Cao Ligong was afraid, really afraid, he even told everything he had done over the years from start to finish, without leaving out a single detail.

  "It was all Fang's idea from the Temple of Sanctuary. He wanted to kill Master Guan, and I'm just being threatened by him. I know I was wrong!"

  Looking at the incessantly pleading Liu Feifei and Cao Liqueen, the master of Wujiguan was completely stunned. He couldn't imagine how Master Cao, with his profound cultivation and powerful magical abilities, would address this young man as "senior". He was just a newly formed Earth Body cultivator from Qingyudian, so how could he be Cao Liqueen's senior? What on earth was going on here?

  Not only was the master of Wuji Hall confused, but even Shangguan Qixue was completely bewildered. She had witnessed Tang Qing's terrifying black smoke and knew that he was somewhat mysterious, but how could he be Cao Lique's senior? Cao Lique was a high-ranking elder who had retired from the Upper Sect, while Tang Qing had only just formed his Earth Body and hadn't been cultivating for long.

  I don't know and can't figure it out!

  Suddenly, a whistling wind sound spread out, and then the sound of a horse's long neighing came. The master of Wuji Hall looked over with the momentum, only to see a fine horse rushing towards him in mid-air. On the horse was a man wearing black armor, holding a long spear, with a black cloak hanging behind him, majestic and powerful.

  "This is... Fang Che of the Temple, Lord Fang!"

  The master of the Wuji Hall had once had the good fortune to see Mr. Fang of the Holy Temple, and immediately recognized him, but with Mr. Fang came another person, who flew in on a sword, like an old man, wearing a blue robe, making a rustling sound.

  "This is the old master of the Wei family! Wei Xiang, the successor of the Wujipai!"

  Herod's Law

  The temple's Fang Che rode in on horseback, and when he stopped, the fine horse stood up and let out a loud neigh. He glared around angrily, saw Liu Piao-piao and Cao Li-qun kneeling on the ground begging for mercy, and couldn't help but feel surprised and suspicious. "Cao Li-qun, what are you doing?"

  Cao Liqun did not respond to him and kept kowtowing in apology.

  The master of the Wuji Hall immediately stepped forward, bowed to the two men and said, "Lord Fang, Cao Lique and Liu Piaopiao seem to have been possessed by some kind of evil spirit, they actually went to kowtow to that Tang Qing!"

  "What? Such a thing exists?" This side of Che has been hiding behind the scenes for many years, manipulating the entire situation. A few days ago, he also heard that Yongyuan City had produced a great land body, but this kind of waste body was not important to him.

  "That's my grandchild!"

  Old Master Wei let out a loud roar and immediately rushed over, looking at the corpses that had turned into mummies. Wei Xiang's anger was burning fiercely, his eyes were bloodshot, and the blood vessels in his eyes were bulging. He roared, "Who is it?! Who destroyed my Wei family?! I, Wei Xiang, will make him wish he were dead!"

  Wei Xiang had been in seclusion, cultivating with the Wuji Sect all along. However, yesterday he suddenly felt uneasy and restless, so after some thought, he decided to return home to take a look. What he saw almost made him faint - his family's compound had been destroyed, but he didn't know who was responsible. Later, he met Lord Fang of the Sacred Temple, which is why he came here to investigate what happened. He hadn't expected to see the corpses of his family members here.

  "Old Master Wei, it's him! It was this Tang Jing who destroyed your Wei family!"

  "What?!"

  Wei Xiang's eyes, spewing flames of anger, swept towards Tang Qing. He recognized this person - it was the very same one that Upper Official Qi Xue had brought him to meet at the Wuji Sect not long ago, the waste who had formed the Great Earth Body!

  PS: Today's second update, I don't want to say much either. It doesn't seem to be working, and I have no idea how others' monthly tickets are rising... Sigh, I'll continue writing, the more updates the better, even if it kills me!
