Cultivating Immortality from the Book of Life and Death

Chapter 626 I am a virtuous gentleman. (First update!)

Blood mist surged, and malevolent energy soared to the sky.

In the wilderness, Kong Rushang and Qu Zhuo stood on the left and right, respectively, while the other Qiu clan members gathered crookedly not far behind. These people had not yet recovered and all looked blankly at their surroundings.

The two Core Formation cultivators scanned the crowd with lightning speed, quickly determining that Qiu Chunzhi was not among them.

The Longevity Lock has also disappeared!

Upon realizing this, the two Core Formation cultivators' expressions changed drastically.

Qiu Chunzhi is in trouble; her magical artifact is lost!

They could not bear either of these two things, but now that both have happened at the same time, if the clan finds out, they will be torn to pieces!

Thinking of this, Kong Rushang immediately said, "That 'strange thing' threw us out."

"There is no trace of 'strangeness' here now."

"However, we didn't walk very far in the 'weird' place at that time."

"This means that the 'strange thing' should be nearby."

"We need to get back to that 'weird' place as soon as possible."

"Otherwise, if Miss perishes here, we will certainly not fare well either!"

Qu Zhuo's expression was solemn. He immediately nodded, glanced at the other Qiu family members, and quickly said, "This time, it's just the two of us going."

“These younger people coming along will only hold us back.”

"In addition, that Foundation Establishment kid of the Heavenly Rank is also in that 'strange' place."

“If that Foundation Establishment cultivator of the Heavenly Rank dies in the ‘Strange’, then a new ‘Law’ will be added to that ‘Strange’.”

"We'll have to be even more careful then."

As they spoke, the two Core Formation cultivators used their divine senses to search the surroundings for the location of the "strange" event.

Soon, they turned their heads and looked in one direction from within the fog.

They didn't detect the "strange" event they had just witnessed, but the market they had entered was in that direction!
Kong Rushang and Qu Zhuo exchanged a glance, and without the slightest hesitation, immediately used their escape techniques to flee towards the market.

The remaining Qiu clan members hadn't fully recovered their senses when they saw the two Core Formation cultivators leave without a word. They were stunned for a moment before they snapped out of their daze.

What is this place?
They had just followed Qiu Chunzhi into a market town, searching for the tomb of a high-level cultivator, and then...

And then I don’t remember anything!

Where is Qiu Chunzhi?

"Weren't we just in a market town? Where is the market town now?"

"This might be the tomb of a high-level cultivator; we've already entered the tomb!"

As everyone was talking, a semi-transparent ghost, mixed in with the blood mist, silently drifted over.

This ghostly creature resembled a flying squirrel, its body covered with pupils of varying sizes. It hovered in mid-air, its translucent shell glowing faintly crimson against the backdrop of the blood mist. Its aura was extremely concentrated, only dissipating slightly when approached.

Puff puff……

Before the Qiu family members could even see what was happening, seven or eight heads flew high into the air, and blood splattered like a sudden rain.

The surviving members of the Qiu family widened their eyes instantly, their pupils filled with fear.

"Iron, [Iron Tree Prison]!"

"Run away!"

The remaining Qiu clan members scattered like birds and beasts. Their cultivation was only at the Foundation Establishment stage; even if they all joined forces, they couldn't possibly defeat a single ghost from the [Iron Tree Prison]! *Pfft pfft pfft pfft pfft…*

Soon, the cultivators used their abilities to flee in all directions.

Accompanied by a dull thud, a one-sided massacre erupted.

Not far away, in mid-air, a figure dressed in a bright red official robe with an official seal tied at his waist quietly watched this scene.

He was one of the two examiners who had previously monitored Zheng Que.

At this moment, he looked indifferently at the examinees below who were being slaughtered by the ghosts, showing no intention of intervening.

Only after these people had been almost completely slaughtered did he activate a specially made communication jade talisman and say to the faintly glowing talisman, "Reporting to my lord, I have discovered two Core Formation cultivators from the Qiu family of Mizhou."

“Mizhou is far from Xue Tong Pass, and they are mixed with the Qiu family’s disciples. Although they have left in a hurry, they must have come to Xue Tong Pass to help their own candidates cheat.”

"However, Qiu Chunzhi was not among these people."

"While the other members of the Qiu clan were slaughtered by the demons of the [Iron Tree Prison], the two Core Formation cultivators showed no interest in doing so..."

As soon as he finished speaking, Ning Jiushan's voice immediately rang out from the communication jade talisman: "Follow those two Qiu clan members who have reached the Core Formation stage."

“See who they help, and record the whole process using a recording jade slip.”

"If they're caught red-handed, arrest them immediately!"

The examiner immediately replied, "Yes!"

After waiting a moment and seeing that Ning Jiushan had no further instructions, he immediately put away the communication jade talisman and turned to chase after Kong Rushang and Qu Zhuo in the direction they had left.

In the lavishly decorated and festive bridal chamber, Zheng Que looked at the bride sitting on the edge of the bed in her wedding dress, his face full of doubt.

Was it Luo Fuyu who made the move just now?
The bride and groom, the wedding night...

What does "Luofu Rain" mean?
Is he going to consummate his marriage with himself?

strange?
He had just been in the underworld and had only asked the other party to send his dowry maid to him as a concubine, but he hadn't said that the other party should sleep with him!

Ok……

who cares!
How can you refuse a marriage that's offered to you?
Thinking of this, Zheng Que coughed lightly. Although he was eager to find another marriage partner, he deliberately acted very aloof and said, "Luo Fuyu, what do you want to do?"

"I am a gentleman, always keeping myself clean and upright, with the most righteous conduct imaginable."

"Don't think you can force me into the bridal chamber just because you dragged me in!"

As he spoke, Zheng Que walked over to the bride and sat down beside her, taking the exquisitely beautiful "Bottle Woman" from her arms and tossing it aside.

boom!
The "Bottle Woman" landed on the ground with a dull thud. Zheng Que hadn't paid attention to the angle when he threw it, and it hit her squarely on the head. The "Bottle Woman's" sinister smile instantly turned into a pitiful expression, and her little mouth pursed, as if she was about to cry.

Zheng Que had no time to pay attention to the "Aquarius Woman" right now, and directly put his arm around the shoulder of the bride beside him.

It feels soft to the touch, almost boneless, but extremely cold. The bride exudes a heavy aura of yin energy.

Seeing that the bride showed no sign of resistance, Zheng Que became bolder and immediately continued in a serious tone, "Luo Fuyu, your act of forcing me is very wrong."

"However, I, Zheng, have always been magnanimous and kind to others, so I will forgive you this time."

"But remember, this is a one-time thing, and there will be no next time!"

"Um……"

"You can come to my room next time..."
