Chapter 64 The Zheng Family's Reaction
Li Fulai's venereal disease was cured.
The Earth Dragon Beast is also one.
The earth dragon gratefully flicked its tongue, wanting to lick Lu Qingyun's hand.
Lu Qingyun did not allow it. Although the beast knew how to be grateful, it had after all been touched by Li Fulai.
Thinking about it, I couldn't help but feel something was off.
Li Fulai patted Hunyuan's head, and the freckles disappeared.
He noticed Lu Qingyun's strange look and couldn't help but explain, "Junior nephew, it's not what you think. Your master just used the saliva of the earth dragon beast to disinfect, and accidentally passed it on to him."
Could this kid think that he and the Earth Dragon Beast have something going on?
Li Fulai twitched his face.
Although he's thick-skinned, he still has a sense of shame.
He was afraid that if Lu Qingyun spread the word and it reached the Bai family, he would become a laughing stock.
"Nephew, you absolutely mustn't tell anyone..."
Li Fulai hesitated, as if he wanted to say something but then stopped.
"I know my martial uncle, there's no need to explain."
Lu Qingyun replied perfunctorily.
He never intended to spread the word, but Li Fulai's strong reaction made it seem like he really had something to hide.
……
At the summit of the spiritual vein.
The Zheng family's cave dwelling.
"The innate soul lamp has been extinguished."
The old man's voice was cold and sharp. He stood on the edge of the cliff, and a cold light suddenly appeared around him.
The Crimson Lotus Melting Sutra, a fire-attribute technique, could not suppress the coldness in his heart and the rage on his body.
"Grandpa, this matter has absolutely nothing to do with the Demonic Sect, and the other spiritual veins haven't made any moves either."
Zheng Tianxuan took a deep breath, trying to hide his unease.
Now, only three cultivators at the late stage of Qi Refining remain in the Zheng family.
With Zheng Tiansheng dead, besides his grandfather Zheng Zhizhuo, who was at the half-step Foundation Establishment stage, only he, at the eighth level of Qi Refining, remained.
"Someone wants to wipe out the Zheng family! They want to seize our spiritual veins and take over our current position!"
"Who do you think did it?"
The cold, old man paced back and forth, and within the cave, a cold light flickered.
This matter absolutely cannot be left unresolved; the real culprit must be found.
Once Zheng Tianxuan died, he became all alone.
The mastermind behind this probably had the same plan; they wanted the Zheng family to be completely destroyed.
"Is it the Bai family?"
"The Bai family's spies have reported back that none of the Bai family's late-stage Qi Refining experts have made any moves, and Bai Yuechan, the only one whose identity is uncertain, has no reason to kill him in private."
"Moreover, Bai Yuechan has been in seclusion for a long time, and the Bai family has not heard any news of her emerging from seclusion."
The oppressive aura emanating from the cold old man continued to spread towards him.
Zheng Tianxuan, panting, explained.
Zheng Zhizhuo suspects that he orchestrated the actions of the Demonic Sect.
As the nominal successor of the Zheng family, he and Zheng Tiansheng have always been at odds. If he kills Zheng Tiansheng, everything in the Zheng family will belong to him.
Even he himself had this doubt.
They suspect that the Demonic Sect was behind it.
Because the Qingchi Demonic Sect had long wanted him to take over the Zheng family completely, using him as a puppet to gradually devour the entire Pingyang market and even Dade.
If someone were to kill Zheng Tiansheng behind his back and force him to submit, he would be helpless.
However, Zheng Tianxuan dared not admit it; he could not admit it.
Whether the Zheng family perishes or not, Zheng Zhizhuo doesn't care.
What he cares about is whether it will affect him and his cultivation resources.
The cold old man's gaze was icy, his eyes constantly tracing Zheng Tianxuan's face. He was very dissatisfied with Zheng Tianxuan's answer.
"This must have been done by Daoist Qingyang."
The chill around him grew stronger, and Zheng Tianxuan even sensed a murderous intent.
Zheng Zhizhuo was waiting for his answer.
Zheng Tianxuan hurriedly said, "It's not the Bai family, because if the Bai family makes a move, my family will definitely find out immediately."
"They're not rogue cultivators either, because killing Zheng Tiansheng would be of no value to them!"
Zheng Tianxuan was very certain: "Only Qingyang Daoist, entrusted by Changyang Daoist, intends to take action against my Zheng family, kill Zheng Tiansheng, and then frame the Bai family."
"In this way, once the Pingyang market falls into chaos, he can seize the opportunity to annex it."
"Grandpa! Isn't this precisely the intention behind Qingyang Daoist's recent establishment of the Great Virtue Defenders Alliance?"
The intention was to seize all of Da De's resources to support his breakthrough to Foundation Establishment.
The cold aura emanating from the old man stopped, and he stared at Zheng Tianxuan.
It seems they agree with this viewpoint.
Throughout the entire Dade, Dazhao, and Yunxia Sect, there was no one truly willing to resist the demons.
Everyone is taking this opportunity to plunder resources.
In the struggle against the Demonic Sect, if one can survive, one should never fight to the death.
"The Zheng family will never let this matter rest."
The cold, old man concealed his aura, his eyes sharp and piercing.
Zheng Tianxuan quickly echoed.
The two of them thus devised a plan to retaliate against Qingyang Daoist.
From beginning to end, neither of them ever suspected that Lu Qingyun was the one who did it.
After all, how could a mid-stage Qi Refining cultivator, even a sect disciple, possibly kill a late-stage Qi Refining cultivator?
Lu Qingyun was unaware of this as well.
In the quiet room, he sat cross-legged.
Quietly consolidate your cultivation.
