Xian Ni: The God of Killing Returns, Marries Li Muwan at the Beginning

Inside the Blood God Palace in the ancestral home of the Yao family in the Luo Tian Star Region, candlelight flickered.

Blood God Child tapped the throne, crafted from crimson jade, with his fingertips, producing a dull sound like a death knell.

Blood Ancestor Yao Xinghai lowered his head, fine beads of sweat seeping from his forehead. In this cold and gloomy hall, it felt as if he were under the scorching sun.

Just when the atmosphere was so oppressive it was suffocating, a streak of light pierced the sky and fell straight into the Yao family's ancestral land.

The newcomer was surrounded by illusory light and shadow, sometimes transforming into blooming flowers, sometimes condensing into flying birds. He was none other than the Lord of Thousand Illusions Star, the ancestor of Thousand Illusions Child, Thousand God Child.

Qian Shenzi moved with light steps, yet carried an undeniable aura of power. After entering the Blood God Palace, his gaze swept over Xue Shenzi and Yao Xinghai with piercing eyes.

"Fellow Daoist Blood God Child, how have you been?"

Senjinko broke the silence first, her voice carrying a hint of authority despite her lack of anger.

Blood God Child raised an eyebrow slightly, a hint of wariness flashing in his eyes, and slowly stood up, saying, "Thousand God Child, what brings you here so suddenly?"

Qian Shenzi sneered, waved his sleeve, and a beam of light exploded in the center of the hall, revealing a scene.

In the scene, Lin Che holds a spirit spring, Liu Mei looks nervous beside him, and in Lin Che's arms hangs a token engraved with the mark of the Thousand Illusion Star.

"The Yao family is so powerful!"

Qian Shenzi spoke in an icy tone, his eyes glaring angrily like copper bells: "Your family's Blood Ancestor allowed his subordinates to run rampant on my Thousand Illusion Star, not only stealing the Spirit Spring, but why does Lin Che have your Yao family's token on him?"

Blood God's eyes narrowed, and he turned to glare at Yao Xinghai.

Yao Xinghai's face turned pale instantly, and he hurriedly protested, "Ancestor, I really know nothing about this! My entanglement with Lin Che was only for his top-tier Void Treasure, and I had absolutely no intention of coveting the Thousand Illusion Star Spirit Spring!"

Qian Shenzi snorted coldly and said, "What's the use of sophistry now? The Spirit Spring is the treasure of my Thousand Illusion Star, and it is of great benefit to our cultivation."

“Now that it has been taken by that brat Lin Che, how can I let it go? Moreover, this token is engraved with the unique secret technique mark of my Thousand Illusion Star. As long as he is still in the Luo Tian Star Region, I can track his location.”

A sinister glint flashed in Blood God's eyes as his thoughts raced. He had been wary of Lin Che's growth, and now that he knew Lin Che not only possessed a top-tier Void Treasure but had also offended Thousand Illusion Star, he felt even more strongly that this person could not be allowed to live.

“Fellow Daoist Qian Shenzi, since you were able to find Lin Che’s location through the token, why don’t we join forces? Lin Che has immense potential; if we don’t eliminate him soon, he will surely become a great threat in the future.”

Qian Shenzi narrowed his eyes slightly, pondered for a moment, and then nodded and said, "Alright, but after the matter is settled, the Spirit Spring will belong to my Qianhuan Star, and we will split the top-level Void Treasure on his body 50/50."

Blood God Child's lips curled into a sinister smile as he said, "Deal! However, Lin Che's cultivation has now reached the late stage of Pure Nirvana, and he still has many trump cards. We must proceed with caution. Fellow Daoist Thousand God Child, do you have any plans?"

A cunning glint flashed in Qian Shenzi's eyes. He raised his hand and waved it, causing the light and shadow in the hall to shift, revealing a star map of the Luo Tian Star Region.

With a light tap of his fingertip, Qian Shenzi marked a spot that shimmered with a faint light: "This is where Lin Che is now, Ran Yun Star."

This star has scarce spiritual energy and is mostly inhabited by mortals. Lin Che must be here to cultivate discreetly.

We can first send someone to infiltrate Ran Yunxing to find out his exact whereabouts and strength, and then formulate a plan to encircle and destroy him.

After a moment of contemplation, Blood God Child said, "My Yao family can send ten experts at the Nirvana Realm to infiltrate Ran Yun Star disguised as ordinary cultivators. Fellow Daoist Thousand God Child, what about your side?"

"I will arrange for the elite troops of Thousand Illusion Star to enter Ran Yun Star under the guise of a merchant caravan." Thousand Gods' eyes flashed with killing intent as he coldly stated, "Once Lin Che's location is confirmed, we will coordinate an attack from within and without to capture him in one fell swoop!"

After all, these two are top-tier Shattered Nirvana experts, and it's impossible for them to directly hunt down a Pure Nirvana cultivator. If this were to become known, they would probably be infamous throughout the entire Luo Tian Star Region.

"No problem. As long as we can kill the magic treasure on him, we'll each take half. Then, the two of us will surely become famous throughout the entire Luo Tian Star Region. At that time, not only the Thunder Immortal Palace, but even the Cultivation Alliance will be nothing but chickens and dogs in front of us!"

Inside the Blood God Temple, the two looked at each other and laughed. The blood-red candlelight flickered violently amidst their laughter, casting distorted shadows onto the temple walls.

Nine crystal-clear jade talismans suddenly flew out from Qian Shenzi's sleeve, and as the runes flowed, they transformed into starlight and disappeared into the star map.

“This is the ‘Concealment Talisman’ of Qianhuan Star. It can shield us from divine sense detection within a radius of a thousand miles on Ranyun Star. Even if Lin Che notices the anomaly, he will not be able to lock onto our informants.”

Blood God nodded, raised his hand to summon an elder of the clan, and whispered something in his ear. The elder's expression changed drastically, but he dared not say anything more and bowed and withdrew.

“I have already ordered my guards to prepare the ‘Blood-Guiding Array.’ Once Lin Che reveals a weakness, we will use the blood essence of 100,000 mortals as a sacrifice to completely block his escape route.”

Blood God Child traced the edge of the throne with his fingertip, causing fine beads of blood to seep from the jade surface. He said in a sinister tone, "But before that, we need to test his strength."

After all, the last Immortal Lord had already made him wary. If Immortal Lord Qing Shuang were to appear again, even he and Qian Shenzi would definitely not be a match for a late-stage Shattered Nirvana Great Perfection cultivator.

Three days later, on the outskirts of Ran Yunxing City.

A caravan bearing the banner of "Thousand Illusions Merchants" slowly entered the city. The leader, a purple-robed cultivator, was playing with a jade pendant engraved with Thousand Illusions Star patterns. Behind him were dozens of carriages loaded with spiritual materials, but hidden in the interlayer were more than ten elite warriors from Thousand Illusions Star.

Meanwhile, the Nirvana cultivators of the Yao family disguised themselves as refugees and mingled in twos and threes in the city's taverns and casinos, secretly monitoring where Lin Che was staying.

At this moment, Lin Che was sitting in the courtyard pruning spirit flowers. His fingertips brushed across the petals, and wherever his spiritual power reached, the originally dull flowers instantly bloomed with an eerie blue light.

Li Muwan came out of the house carrying her young child. Seeing this, she chuckled and said, "Husband, are you improving spiritual plants again? Don't let outsiders see you, or they'll think you're refining some evil thing."

Before he finished speaking, Lin Che's expression suddenly changed slightly, and his gaze pierced through the rooftops, looking towards a certain place in the city.

Not far away, a Yao family cultivator was transmitting a message using a special method. Although the spiritual energy fluctuations were weak, they could not escape his long-honed divine sense.

"They came quickly."

Lin Che's lips curled into a cold smile, and the spiritual flower in his hand exploded, turning into a sky full of blue flames that disappeared into the ground.

"Since you want to play, then I'll play with you."

That night, a raging fire suddenly broke out in the city lord's mansion of Ran Yunxing.

The Thousand Illusions Merchant Caravan and the Yao family cultivators arrived at the scene almost simultaneously.

Lin Che stood with his hands behind his back in the sea of ​​fire, surrounded by jet-black flames, each flame shimmering with a chilling, eerie blue.
