I am cultivating immortality in the chaotic world.

Chapter 228 "You don't want to kill me?"

however--

Chen Lu quickly withdrew his gaze from the Zhang family's ancestor. He just looked back out of boredom.

About two hours passed.

Chen Lu and his group finally stopped over the "Handsome Man City" in a mighty manner. Then, with Chen Lu at the head, they landed in the city and did not enter through the city gate. The guards of the Handsome Man City were about to come over to inquire, but when they saw the ancestor of the Zhang family following the team with his head down, they quickly reacted and retreated in shame.

"Boss."

In the alley, a man in armor looked at the group of people walking away and whispered, "How about we stop them symbolically? After all, this group of people is a little too unruly. If the city lord blames them, it will be difficult to deal with."

"We can only stop them symbolically. Even if they want to break in by force, we don't have to stop them. The city lord can't blame us then. After all, we have already tried to stop them, but we just failed."

"Stop the chicken feathers!"

The captain of the guard team slapped his subordinate on the head in annoyance and said, "Your head should be fixed. Did you see who that is? The ancestor of the Zhang family in Taicheng. He is a well-known figure in this area, and his cultivation level is at the initial stage of the Void Refining Realm."

"But now he just followed behind the team without even raising his head."

"Guess who the group in front of the team is?"

"Can we afford to provoke them, or should I say, are they people that the City of Beautiful Men can afford to provoke? Moreover, the man in the lead looks quite young, and he may be the son of a wealthy family. If you try to stop such a person symbolically, do you think he will force his way in? I think it is more likely that he will slap us into ashes!"

Although Chen Yu's name resounded throughout the vast continent through the Heavenly Edict.

Chen Lu's recent deeds quickly spread throughout Xuantian Province.

However, the spread of information about Chen Lu's photo stone was relatively slow, so almost everyone had heard of Chen Lu's name, but no one knew what he looked like.

"senior."

In the team, Chen Lu was walking in the front with an umbrella, Fei Long and a few others were following behind him on the left, and the leader of the Tianfu Sect was following behind him on the right, explaining in a low voice along the way.

"This is the City of Handsome Men. I investigated when I came here. The city lord here is at the initial stage of Refining Void, and is a casual cultivator."

"This is the territory of the "Qiudao Sect", a small sect that was founded less than 500 years ago. Their leader was an inner disciple of the Tianfu Sect and has some connections with the Tianfu Sect. My words to him should work."

"Even if you leave the Beautiful Man City in the future, don't worry. I will definitely tell him to take good care of the Liu family."

This is the end.

He no longer doubted whether the Chaotian Sect token in the Liu family's hand was genuine or not. Since the senior could come in person and didn't seem to have much killing intent, the token was most likely not fake. If it was fake, the senior should have behaved differently.

"Ah."

Chen Lu nodded slightly without saying anything. He just walked forward in the crowd at will. He did not ask where the Liu family was, nor did he go in the direction of the Liu family, because he found that this city was indeed interesting.

Almost 50% to 60% of the men in this city are of the handsome and elegant type.

Most of the local male babies born in this city will look like this, and this appearance will not change much as they age. Generally speaking, men will develop more vicious looks as time goes by.

But the middle-aged men in this city all have chubby faces and look quite kind.

If you have to choose a teammate in a secret realm of heaven.

The men in the Handsome City are definitely more popular than those men with fat faces. Although their fighting ability is not guaranteed, they don’t look like they can stab you in the back, so you will feel more at ease.

"."

He narrowed his eyes slightly and looked at the men passing by. Before he first came to the Beauty City, he had heard a brief explanation from the leader of the Sky Axe Sect, but only when he arrived in the Beauty City could he truly appreciate the uniqueness of the Beauty City.

Could it be that there is something unique about the Feng Shui of the Beauty City?
Make the baby boys born in this city more handsome?

But why is it only a boy? Girls are normal and there is nothing special about them?
He shook his head without thinking too much. After wandering around for a while, he signaled the leader of the Tianfu Sect to lead the way and prepared to go to the "Liu Family", which was also the purpose of his visit this time.

After a hundred breaths.

Chen Lu stood in front of a house with a calm expression. On the door plaque of the courtyard gate were hung the words "Liu Family". Obviously, this was the destination of his trip. At this time.

The door is open.

The head of the Liu family had already brought all the children of the Liu family to kneel on the ground to greet him, and said respectfully and loudly: "Greetings, senior master."

Especially the head of the Liu family who was kneeling on the ground. He was a strong man with white beard and red hair. But now he was kneeling on the ground with awe and panic on his face, and his voice was trembling slightly.

He never expected that such a small matter here would attract Chen Lu.

That’s Chen Lu!
The leader of Chaotian Sect is a prominent figure in Xuantianzhou recently. He is an existence who has just entered the realm of refining emptiness and has killed dozens of people in the realm of refining emptiness. Their Liu family is just an inconspicuous small family in the entire Xuantianzhou, especially since there has not been a person in the realm of refining emptiness for many generations. They never dared to think that one day they would be able to deal with such a prominent figure.

And at this time——

Kneeling on the ground, a little girl in a white dress gritted her teeth, immediately stood up and walked to Chen Lu, carefully supporting his arm. Although she didn't say it explicitly, she had obviously made her intention known with her actions.

"."

Chen Lu casually glanced at the woman beside him without dwelling on her for too long. This woman had just knelt down beside the head of the Liu family. If she was not a maid, she should be the eldest daughter of the Liu family.

"Everyone, get up."

After he said this casually, he, with the help of the woman, walked through the Liu family's gate, passed through the front hall and went straight to the back hall.

As soon as I entered the Liu family's house, I felt that the spiritual energy of the Liu family was obviously richer than that of the outside world. This was because the spirit gathering array was activated in the entire family courtyard, and it was activated all the time. Otherwise, the water in the courtyard would not be so clear, and the lotus flowers would not grow so well.

Still have money.

He couldn't help but sigh inwardly that an inconspicuous small family on this vast continent actually had the strength to activate the Spirit Gathering Array at all times. Although the quality of this Spirit Gathering Array was not very high and the spiritual energy was not much richer than that of the outside world, it was also a manifestation of strength and background.

His Chaotian Sect.

Until now, I am still reluctant to activate the spirit gathering array all the time.

Those of low quality are of no use to him.

He couldn't afford the higher grade ones either.

It seems that I really need to work hard. Before this retreat, I have to quickly visit the various forces in Xuantianzhou. After Chen Lu secretly made a decision in his heart, he walked in front and, supported by the eldest lady of the Liu family, walked towards the depths of the Liu family.

In the Liu family's living room.

Chen Lu sat in the main seat, Fei Long and the leader of the Tianfu Sect and his entourage sat on the left and right sides, while the head of the Liu family and a group of elders stood in the center of the reception hall with fear on their faces. As for the children of the Liu family, they were not qualified to attend the meeting.

At this time, the eldest daughter of the Liu family was kneeling quietly beside the main seat, like a little maid.

It's a bit hard to understand.

It can be said that he wanted to get ahead by physical means, but there is nothing explicit about it, and his actions do not have any obvious hints. But apart from this purpose, it is hard to think of any other purpose.

Sitting in the main seat, Chen Yu casually glanced at the eldest daughter of the Liu family. She had taken off her veil at some point, revealing her true face. Both her figure and appearance were top-notch.

In this life, he has only slept with one woman, Meiya from Xuantian Continent. However, this eldest lady of the Liu family is slightly better than Meiya in both figure and appearance.

She has the flavor of a weak girl from the south of the Yangtze River.

The whole person looks very delicate, with a petite figure and a cherry-like mouth, which is quite good.

Although she is not a Heavenly Beauty, her beauty is far superior to many Heavenly Beauties. After all, Heavenly Beauties are not ranked simply based on beauty, but more like a random selection method.

the most important is--

This woman has good cultivation, she is at the initial stage of Spiritual Transformation.

For example, mortals, no matter how beautiful they are, will always look frowning in the eyes of immortal cultivators. For example, large pores, strange body odor, etc. These things will be magnified countless times in the eyes of immortal cultivators with sensitive spiritual senses.

This is also why it is almost impossible for a powerful god to rape a mortal woman.

But as long as one's cultivation breaks through to the Golden Elixir stage, the whole person's temperament will undergo a different change, especially when one comes to the stage of spiritual transformation. The body is impermeable, there is no filth, and no pores. The whole person looks natural, as if created by God.

I have to say, it’s pretty good.

Chen Yu withdrew his gaze from the young lady of the Liu family who was kneeling beside him, and then looked at the Liu family's patriarch and his group standing in the reception hall and said calmly: "Where is the token?"

The head of the Liu family, who was standing in the middle of the reception hall, carefully took out a token from his arms and was about to hand it to Chen Lu.

He saw his daughter, who was kneeling on the ground, suddenly stand up and walk down, then take the token from his hand, walk up again with steps as light as dancing willow catkins, hand the token to Chen Lu, and then kneel down again.

"."

Chen Lu raised his eyebrows slightly, took the token from the eldest daughter of the Liu family, and rubbed it in his hands. It was a token carved from white jade. It felt warm in his hand and had an ancient atmosphere.

If it was ten thousand years ago, this token should still have the aura of the Chaotian Sect.

But as time passed, this possible breath of existence disappeared.

The front of the token is inscribed with the three characters "Chaotian Sect", and the north side is inscribed with the two characters "Elder". This is the token of the elders of the Chaotian Sect.

After a while.

He raised his head and looked at the head of the Liu family, and whispered, "The Zhang family of Taicheng forced your Liu family's eldest daughter to marry you, right? What do you want to do with them? Kill them all?"

The voice just fell.

The Zhang family patriarch, who was standing behind the Tianfu Sect leader, turned pale instantly. He immediately knelt on the ground and faced the Liu family leader with fear in his eyes. His voice was trembling with tears and he said, "Liu family leader, although our Zhang family has made mistakes, our crimes are not worthy of being exterminated!"

"Although I have oppressed your family, no matter what, there has never been any actual conflict, right?"

"Please help me speak."

"I really didn't know that the Liu family had this kind of relationship with the Chaotian Sect. Master Liu, you also know that when you took out the Chaotian Sect token, didn't our Zhang family withdraw immediately?!
The head of the Liu family, who was standing in place, did not meet the Zhang family's ancestor's gaze, but looked up at Chen Yu, gritted his teeth and said in a hoarse voice: "It's all up to you, senior."

Chen Lu did not reply. He turned his head and looked at the eldest daughter of the Liu family who was kneeling beside him and said casually.

"What do you think should be done?"

The eldest daughter of the Liu family, who was kneeling beside the main seat, hesitated for a moment before saying, "The Zhang family of Taicheng did not cause any substantial physical conflict with the Liu family. If it were me, I think some actual compensation is needed. It does feel a bit heavy to exterminate the entire family."

"Row."

Chen Yu immediately stood up and looked at the crowd: "Then let's do this. You can negotiate the compensation among yourselves. Master Liu, come with me and tell me about your ancestor in detail."

Liu family, ancestral hall.

"The ancestor of your Liu family is called Liu Sanqian?"

Chen Lu stood in the ancestral hall, looking at the tablet on the altar thoughtfully. The name sounded quite familiar to him, mainly because he had just heard it not long ago, so even if he wanted to forget it, he couldn't do it so quickly.

The husband of the old woman in the golden house of merit seems to be Liu Sanqian.

strangeness.
According to what the old woman said, she should have followed Liu Sanqian. After coming to the Haohan Continent from the Xuantian Continent 30,000 years ago, the old woman broke through to the fusion stage, but Liu Sanqian stopped at the late stage of the refining void stage, and his time is up.

But here comes the problem. Who left this legacy? In other words, who gave birth to the child? Did the old woman give birth to the child? The old woman didn't mention anything about giving birth to a child at the time, and it seems that she never mentioned it at all.

He shook his head and didn't think about it anymore. He originally thought that the Golden House of Merit could be moved to other states, but since he couldn't break through the shackles of the Heavenly Dao, he was not so concerned about the Golden House of Merit.

"Is it gone?"

Chen Yu tilted his head and looked at the head of the Liu family: "Did your ancestor leave behind anything other than this Chaotian Sect Elder Order?"

"Nothing."

The head of the Liu family shook his head and said firmly: "This can be confirmed. After all, it has been passed down for so many years. The Liu family has changed many cities. Even if there are other things, they have passed away over the long years."

"Yeah." Chen Lu nodded lightly and said nothing more. Then he expanded his spiritual sense and quickly covered the entire Handsome City. He did not find anything special. In that case, he had no intention of staying any longer.

Prepare to return to Heavenly Palace quickly to practice.

Say it.

He left the head of the Liu family alone in the ancestral hall, and then walked out of the hall alone, ready to set off.

Just as you walk out of the Liu Family Ancestral Hall and pass through a small courtyard, there is a pond in the courtyard with some lotus flowers planted in it. Next to it is a tree of unknown species that provides a large shade.

But just stepped into this courtyard.

The eldest daughter of the Liu family, who was wearing a white dress, came forward to greet them.

"I"

The eldest daughter of the Liu family, who blocked Chen Yu's steps, mustered up her courage, stared straight at Chen Yu, bit her lip and said, "I am the fourth-position Heavenly Dao substitute beauty. This is my value. Although I don't know what the effect of my Heavenly Dao beauty is, as long as you are willing, I can let you enjoy this Heavenly Dao beauty effect."

"Heavenly substitute beauty?"

Chen Yu raised his eyebrows slightly. It was the first time he heard this statement. It was quite interesting. Then he couldn't help but ask curiously: "How did you know that you are the fourth-ranked Heavenly Beauty?"

Although it was the first time he heard this statement.

But you can probably guess what the situation is.

The ranking list of Tiandao beauties is fixed, and when someone on the ranking list dies, a new Tiandao beauty will appear at random. In short, the ranking list of Tiandao beauties must be full and there will be no vacancies.

However, he didn't know before that these substitute beauties had not been selected long ago, and they were also numbered. The number four should mean that the eldest daughter of the Liu family was ranked fourth among the candidates.

If four people on the list die, she will be on the list.

"I have my own way." The eldest daughter of the Liu family shook her head and didn't say anything more. Instead, she stared at Chen Yu: "But I know one thing, if I become a formal Heavenly Beauty one day in the future."

“It will definitely bring a lot of trouble to the Liu family.”

"Even with your protection from the Chaotian Sect, there will still be many people who will do bad things in secret."

"So I want to follow you, so that you can enjoy the effect of this Heavenly Beauty in the future. In return, you only need to leave the Liu family an opportunity for my father to break through to the Void Refining Stage."

"I know what you are worried about, senior. I know that only when you truly love someone can the other person enjoy the effect of the Heavenly Beauty. Senior, don't worry, I will try my best to make myself fall in love with you sincerely enough."

"."

Chen Yu looked at the woman in white dress in front of him calmly. He now understood the meaning of what the woman did, but...
"Need not."

He pushed the woman aside, crossed the courtyard and continued walking forward, saying nonchalantly: "I don't really like this kind of transaction. If it's about love, I don't have any feelings for you. If it's about price, you've set a high price for yourself."

"As for the beauty of heaven."

"I don't really need that thing. It's more of a burden to me."

Say it.

Chen Lu didn't stop at all. He immediately walked through the courtyard and went to the front hall to meet Fei Long and others and prepare to set off.

No matter how good the effect of Heavenly Beauty is, he would not want it, because to obtain a Heavenly Beauty effect often means getting a woman's sincere love, which would make him feel constrained.

And there will be many more troubles.

Compared with all these extra troubles, he felt that the effect of a Heavenly Beauty was not that important. What's more, he didn't fancy the five Heavenly Beauties who had a strengthening effect on magic practitioners in the Great Xia Kingdom. If he had liked them at that time, he would have arranged everything in his own hands long ago, and there would be no turn for that young master of the Qu family.

"Return trip!"

Chen Lu and his companions boarded the flying boat again for the return journey.

Chen Lu, who was standing on the deck of the flying boat, looked into the distance and fell into deep thought. In fact, the speed of this flying boat was quite slow. It was already at full power, but its speed was still only that of the middle stage of the Refinement Void Realm.

If they were led by Jin Guang, the leader of Tianfu Sect, they would be able to go even faster.

But that would be quite embarrassing.

After all, Chen Lu was famous all over the world, the leader of Chaotian Sect. What did it matter if he followed others out? How was he any different from a child in someone's arms?
He wanted to fly by himself, but after all, his cultivation level was limited, and he was not proficient in body movements, so he was definitely not as fast as the leader of the Tianfu Sect.

Although he once obtained a yellow term "Agility Supremacy", the effect of this term is that the more spiritual energy contained in Dantian, the faster his movement speed will be, but this speed is not directly added to the agility, but the ordinary shooting speed.

But after his cultivation reached the Refining Void Stage.

The speed difference between different levels of cultivation and different body techniques can no longer be made up by this entry.

It is precisely because of the above reasons that they can only take this flying boat, which, although not slow, is certainly not very fast. It is truly a helpless move.

We need to build a flying boat of higher quality and faster speed!
After Chen Lu silently made up his mind, he arrived above Duoduo City more than two hours later and released the leader of Tianfu Sect. Before leaving Duoduo City, he subconsciously looked at the "Golden House of Merit" above Duoduo City.

However.
It was this subconscious glance that suddenly froze him in place. He saw that the Golden House of Merit floating in the sky was parallel to their flying boat, and the wooden door of the Golden House of Merit had opened at some point.

The old woman who had talked to him was now hanging on the roof by a rope.

The feet hang naturally and the body floats in the wind.

The bloodshot eyes stared straight at him from outside the wooden house. The whole person looked completely lifeless and was undoubtedly dead.

"."

Chen Lu felt a chill on his back for a moment, because he really didn't expect that the old woman would suddenly die in her own golden house of merit. After all, during the conversation, the old woman used her own means to set up these eighty-one golden houses of merit so that she could gain eternal life.

Death by God?

It's impossible. If it was because of leaking the secret, Heaven would not go to such trouble to even hang himself.

Hang yourself?

The possibility is not very high, mainly because there is no reason. Before he left, the old woman seemed to be in normal condition and there was no problem at all. She did not show any suicidal tendencies.

Mainly. There is absolutely no reason.

Since she was able to set up these eighty-one golden houses of merit to allow herself to live forever, and she was also waiting for her husband who would be resurrected a million years later, and two thousand years had already passed, there was no possibility of a sudden mental collapse, so how could she have committed suicide?
Since the first two possibilities are not possible, the last one is left.

He killed.

Only when one's merit value is close to 100 billion can one see this "Golden House of Merit", and there are only two people in the entire vast continent who meet this condition, one is him, and the other is the Holy Maiden of Xuantian Sect.

If he didn't kill the person, then it could only be the Holy Maiden of Xuantian Sect.

It’s very simple logical reasoning, even a three-year-old child can do it.

The logic is correct, but...how is it possible?

Chen Lu frowned slightly and fell into deep thought, looking at the corpse of the old woman hanged on the ceiling in the Merit Golden House, and remained silent. The cultivation level of the Holy Lady of Xuantian Sect was very low, she had not even reached the stage of Spirit Transformation, and was only at the Nascent Soul stage.

After all, this is a golden house of merit built by a powerful person in his combined form. It shouldn’t be without any defensive means, right?
Moreover, can’t this old woman travel back and forth through the Golden House of Merit on her own?
Why would the Holy Maiden of Xuantian Sect kill the old woman when she had no grudge against her?
Obviously, this Saintess of Xuantian Sect is not what she seems on the surface. She should have some special methods, but strangely, he did not see any special entries from the Saintess of Xuantian Sect. Ever since he had the entry of "Eye of True Vision" that can see through others, he basically checks the entries of everyone around him.

There are only two possibilities. Either the Holy Maiden of Xuantian Sect has more special means, or she has the ability to block entries from being detected.

"."

After a long silence, Chen Yu turned his gaze away from the old woman's body hanging from the ceiling, tilted his head to look at Fei Long who was controlling the flying boat, and whispered, "Go back to the Heavenly Palace."

He didn't know exactly what happened, but he didn't want to care.

However, he vaguely felt that there must be some kind of love-hate relationship between the Holy Maiden of Xuantian Sect, the old woman, and Liu Sanqian. And since the Holy Maiden of Xuantian Sect could have a relationship with two people who lived 30,000 years ago, it was obvious that she was not a simple person either.

He didn't have much contact with the Holy Maiden of Xuantian Sect and didn't know much about her.

All we know is that he made contributions to repairing the sky in Xuantian Continent a hundred years ago, and obtained nearly 100 billion merit points. Then he chose to go to Haohan Continent and joined the "Heavenly Palace".

That's probably it.

He has a good habit.

That is, mind your own business. No matter how you look at it, this matter has nothing to do with him. He is not so close to the old woman that he would avenge her life and death. This matter should just be let go.

The old woman died.

He just needs to practice with peace of mind.

Just as the flying boat disappeared into the horizon, the open wooden door of the Merit Golden House creaked in the air, and a girl with a dagger in her hand walked out from behind the door with a calm face.

Standing at the door of the Golden House of Merit, looking in the direction where the flying boat is sailing away.

This girl was none other than the Holy Maiden of Xuantian Sect. The dagger in her hand was dripping with thick blood, but the rhythm was not fast.

Perhaps even the Xuantian Sect did not expect that the saint girl of their sect was not so saintly at all, and only satisfied the word "female".

at this time--

The sky above the Golden House of Merit was suddenly covered by dark clouds, and a violent storm suddenly swept across the world. Before the Holy Maiden of Xuantian Sect could react, she found that Chen Lu had held up the Tianji Umbrella at some point and was standing at the door of the Golden House of Merit, looking straight at her.

"I forgot to tell you just now."

In the midst of the violent storm, Chen Lu held up the Tianji Umbrella and stood high in the air. His clothes were whistling in the strong wind. He looked seriously at the Holy Maiden of Xuantian Sect who was holding a dagger and standing at the door of the Merit Golden House, and spoke softly.

"The Liu family of "Beauty City" is protected by the Chaotian Sect. I hope you don't have any thoughts about that family."

"Otherwise, if you openly slap me in the face like this, no matter what story there is between the three of you."

"At least, there is a new story between the two of us."

"I am a person who cares a lot about my reputation. If outsiders knew that the people that Chaotian Sect had just protected were slaughtered right after, it would be very embarrassing for me."

"as well as--"

Chen Yu's eyes moved down a little, and after lingering for a moment on the dagger in the hand of the Saintess of Xuantian Sect that was constantly dripping with blood, he said calmly: "You hid behind the door of the Merit Golden House with a small dagger in your hand, you are not going to kill me, are you?"

"Little bastard?"
