Chapter 169 Ruthless
"Then give it a try! Anyway, you've never revealed your identity in the 'Ten Thousand Laws Gathering,' so maybe with your skills, you can get close to Lü Ruoxi, slowly win her heart, and take her away."

Wei Henian shook his head. This Brother Han is really too lecherous.

However, this is very advantageous to Wei Henian; people with weaknesses are easier to deal with!

Now, due to shared interests, he and the true disciple of the Han family are allies.

However, the two are also competitors at other times.

The president of the "Ten Thousand Laws Association" wields great power, and even if he is only nominally in charge, he has several true disciples who are eyeing him covetously.

Wei Henian was able to maintain his position after much effort and at a great cost.

The "Ten Thousand Laws Association" is not just an organization that exploits a few low-level disciples.

This is only their minimum source of revenue; in reality, the "Wanfa Society" also controls a considerable amount of resources.

These resources included those from the Ming Dynasty, and even those from other surrounding countries.

The tentacles of the "Ten Thousand Laws Association" have spread across a large part of the Southern Heaven Continent through the channels of the "Divine Firmament Dao Sect".

As the president and nominal leader, Wei Henian received enormous benefits, far exceeding those of the founders.

Therefore, there were quite a few people who secretly competed with Wei Henian.

These people all wanted to bring Wei Henian down and vie for the position of president of the "Wanfa Society".

These days, the resources of the "Wanfa Association" have been continuously suppressed by the Fu family. Although it hurts Wei Henian, it has not caused any serious damage.

The "Assembly of Ten Thousand Laws" has enough power to survive this ordeal.

However, this situation cannot continue!
Otherwise, the later founders might not be satisfied with him.

However, everyone was engaged in internal struggles within the "Shenxiao Daozong" and could not engage in a large-scale conflict with the Fu family, which kept the "Wanfa Hui" in a state of limbo.

Now, eliminating Li Yunjing, Yu Yunyi, Lü Ruoxi, and Fu Chao one by one has become the most effective method.

"Alright! I heard that Lü Ruoxi has broken through to the Foundation Establishment Realm. I'll bring some congratulatory gifts and go over to see her and get acquainted with her."

After the business was concluded, the true disciple surnamed Han stood up and leisurely left.

"laugh……"

After the man left, Wei Henian sneered, "You prodigal son, you're in for a rough time! Lü Ruoxi is so easy to deal with, how could it be your turn?"

Mentioning the flirtatious woman Lü Ruoxi made Wei Henian's heart itch with desire.

Recently, with Linghua gone, Wei Henian has lost a tool for sexual gratification, which makes him even more resentful towards Li Yunjing!

He had no idea that Li Yunjing had never slept with his woman; on the contrary, Fu Chao was quite ruthless.

……

At this moment, inside the "Star Moon Trading Company," Li Yunjing was unaware of the conspiracies and schemes targeting him.

He spent several days working with Xing'er and Yue'er to complete the inventory of "Xingyue Trading Company".

In just over three months, the "Star Moon Trading Company" had accumulated more than 50,000 low-grade spirit stones in its accounts.

However, after Yue'er paid Li Yunjing 44000 low-grade spirit stones, there were not many spirit stones left in the "Star Moon Trading Company's" accounts.

However, the warehouse is full of resources. If these things are sold when Li Yunjing comes again, a fortune can be made.

In addition to selling items and earning spirit stones, "Star Moon Trading Company" is also constantly acquiring cultivation-related items.

Li Yunjing also instructed Xing'er and Yue'er to help him collect second-tier materials, mid-grade spirit stones, and pills...

He needs any material that is second-tier, whether it's for alchemy, weapon crafting, array formation, or talisman making!
Xing'er and Yue'er naturally expressed that they would do their best to raise the resources Li Yunjing needed.

Li Yunjing is full of confidence in the development of "Star Moon Trading Company". Perhaps in addition to the revenue of spirit stones, he may receive more surprises.

Li Yunjing is going back tomorrow.

With a few days left in the holiday, Li Yunjing planned to take care of some other matters concerning the "Shenxiao Dao Sect".

He couldn't stay at "Star Moon Trading Company" forever, wasting his time indulging in pleasure.

That night, the wind howled and the waves crashed outside, and the stars and the moon were driven to madness.

This situation surprised Li Yunjing. After the two women turned from girls into young women, their combat power increased greatly, and they even dared to take the initiative to attack him.

In the latter half of the night, the wind and rain stopped, and Li Yunjing finally managed to tidy up the two of them and lay down on the bed to rest for a while, satisfied.

Before going to sleep, Li Yunjing chatted with Xing'er and Yue'er in a disjointed manner.

Suddenly, Li Yunjing's divine sense moved and he saw three men dressed in black sneaking towards the entrance of "Star Moon Trading Company" outside the front building.

"not good!!"

Li Yunjing was startled. He pushed away the two soft, delicate bodies pressing down on him, grabbed his clothes, and put them on. In an instant, he was dressed.

"Brother Li, what's wrong?"

Seeing Li Yunjing's actions, Xing'er and Yue'er were still a little confused, not knowing what was wrong with Li Yunjing.

"fine!"

The moment those two words were uttered, Li Yunjing had already pushed open the door and rushed out, flying through the air over the two-story building and shooting to the side of the street.

At that moment, some kerosene was spread out at the entrance, and the three of them were about to set fire to the "Star Moon Trading Company".

"Bang bang bang!"

Li Yunjing had no intention of being polite to such a despicable person.

To the astonishment of the three men, Li Yunjing flashed in front of them and delivered three devastating punches, leaving them hunched over like shrimp.

"You're really asking for trouble! How dare you come here and cause trouble!"

Li Yunjing used the key to open the front door of the building, and carrying one in each hand like a chick, tossed them into the hall.

"Ouch..."

The three lay on the ground, groaning loudly. Li Yunjing's punch had ruptured their internal organs, causing them severe internal injuries and immense pain.

"Dangdang!"

Li Yunjing slammed the door shut, then pointed a finger, and a fiery snake danced, lighting the oil lamp.

Instantly, the lobby of the front building was illuminated.

Li Yunjing looked coldly at the three men in black who were rolling around but unable to get up.

His divine sense swept over them, and he found that the three of them were not highly cultivated, only at the sixth level of the Qi Refining Realm.

"You piece of trash dare to cause trouble?"

Enraged, Li Yunjing took a few steps forward and stepped on the face of a man in black.

With a forceful stomp, the man's face was crushed beyond recognition.

The black hood covering the person's face was also shattered, revealing his swollen cheeks.

Li Yunjing glanced down and didn't recognize the person.

Then he used this to attack the other two people, confirming that he did not recognize any of the three men in black.

"Puch..."

A faint light flashed in Li Yunjing's hand, and the cold, iron-blooded "Breaking Qi Spear" appeared. He thrust his arm forward, and the spear pierced a man's throat, the crimson blood staining the ground.

Seeing their companion die right in front of them, the other two shuddered in fear.

Despite the excruciating pain in his internal organs, he managed to sit up, then knelt down with a thud, repeatedly kowtowing and pleading, "Spare us! Spare us! We'll never do it again!"

"Hehe! There'll be a next time?"

Li Yunjing grinned maliciously, and his "Piercing Spear" pierced through another man's chest. With a forceful lift, Li Yunjing hoisted the man up and coldly asked, "Speak! Who sent you here!"

"Spare me! I really don't know that man's name! He said he would pay each of us 1000 low-grade spirit stones to burn down the 'Star Moon Merchant Guild's' storefront. We must have lost our minds."

The man impaled on the spearhead writhed in agony, his hands gripping the shaft weakly as he cried out in pain.

The blood dripped "drip drip drip" from the spear in his chest onto the ground.

Faced with Li Yunjing's brutality, the man was completely convinced and desperate, and dared not hide anything.

He only hoped to save his life from Li Yunjing's clutches.

At this moment, Xing'er and Yue'er, dressed neatly, arrived at the front building.

The two women were shocked by the bloody scene, never expecting that Brother Li had such a cold-blooded side!
For a moment, the two women stood aside, not daring to come closer.

"What did that person look like?" Li Yunjing asked expressionlessly.

"The man was tall and thin, with narrow eyes, a straight nose, thin lips, and delicate features. He looked at people with his chin held high, appearing extremely arrogant!"

"In addition, this man was dressed in gorgeous clothes and seemed to be very rich. He was also accompanied by four followers."

"These five people are all highly skilled; they're stronger than us!"

The man continued answering, finally pleading, "Please spare me! I'm dying... Please put me down..."

"See if this is the person!"

Li Yunjing sneered, completely unconcerned whether the person could withstand it.

He used his fingers as a pen and his magic power as ink, making continuous strokes in the void. In an instant, a portrait materialized, which was the young man who had come to cause trouble earlier.

"Yes! This is the person!"

The person kneeling on the ground quickly answered.

As for the person on the spearhead, he was already lifeless.

Li Yunjing's arm jerked, and the man's corpse fell off the "Breaking Qi Spear" and landed on the ground.

"Speak! Tell me how this person will pay you spirit stones after the matter is settled!"

Li Yunjing then looked at the last person, his voice icy cold, as if he would stab the person to death with a spear if he did not answer!
“He said that after the matter was settled, we should quickly leave the market and head west to a village called Mulberry Tree Village, a hundred miles away. He said that as long as we recorded the image on the stone and confirmed that the ‘Star Moon Trading Company’ had been burned down, he would pay us spirit stones.”

The person kneeling on the ground didn't dare to lift his head, his body trembling uncontrollably, clearly terrified by Li Yunjing's brutality.

"Thank you! I hope I'll be a smarter person in my next life and do fewer immoral things!"

With a "thud," Li Yunjing thrust his arm forward, and the "Breaking Qi Spear" pierced the man's heart, killing him.

"Brother Li..."

Xing'er and Yue'er turned pale with fright and whispered in trembling voices.

"Yes! These three came to set fire to our trading company! I'll kill them, you dispose of the bodies! I'll go deal with the culprit!"

Li Yunjing nodded and gave instructions to the two women.

"what?"

Xing'er and Yue'er were somewhat intimidated by the bloody scene.

Although the two of them had been in a fight once, they had never killed anyone or disposed of a corpse, so they were still somewhat frightened when they saw this scene.

Li Yunjing deliberately let the two of them handle it, hoping to provoke the two women.

In the world of cultivation, it's either you kill someone or someone kills you; fighting and killing are all too normal.

Now, this is a good opportunity to train the two girls and make them look more like cultivators, instead of always hiding under my wings.

Just like before, the rich young master was only at the eighth level of Qi Refining, and the other four followers, like Xing'er and Yue'er, were all at the seventh level of Qi Refining.

With such cultivation, if Li Yunjing were to make a move, he could kill them all in an instant.

But Xing'er and Yue'er had no way to deal with them.

Besides the cultivation techniques and the level of their magical artifacts, the main reason for this is that Xing'er and Yue'er lack experience and cannot unleash their full combat power.

Based on Li Yunjing's experience, even if his combat strength was the same as Xing'er and Yue'er, he was confident that he could kill these five people!
This is a matter of experience!
The two girls need to get some exercise!

Their skill level was too low; among the people around Li Yunjing, there were almost none more incompetent than the two women.

This is an unacceptable outcome.

The "Star Moon Trading Company" will grow bigger and bigger, and such a large enterprise should naturally be handed over to capable people.

Xing'er and Yue'er must learn to grow together with "Xingyue Trading Company".

Seeing the two women's pained expressions, Li Yunjing adjusted his magical artifacts and prepared for battle.

Before leaving, Li Yunjing continued, "I'm leaving now! When I get back, everything needs to be cleaned up! We'll be open for business as usual tomorrow!"

After saying this, Li Yunjing pushed open the door and left without waiting for the two women to speak.

"what……"

Watching Li Yunjing leave, Xing'er and Yue'er looked at the three corpses lying on the ground with bitter faces. They exchanged glances, and finally had no choice but to suppress their sense of smell and walk forward...

On the other side, Li Yunjing's face was ashen; that kid was doomed!

No matter which family's young master he is!
We must oppose him without mercy!
The "Star Moon Trading Company" has been of great help to Li Yunjing's career development.

Fighting and killing won't earn you many resources; the ultimate way to accumulate wealth is through business cooperation.

Various sects, families, and even some rogue cultivators have all opened their own shops.

Everyone knows that this is the best way to accumulate wealth.

Li Yunjing also has this plan to expand his business empire.

Now, someone wants to destroy his business, which has really touched a nerve.

Anyone and any force must bear the wrath of Li Yunjing!

Not far away, after leaving the market, Li Yunjing immediately activated the "flying talisman" and used his magic to propel himself into the air.

The "flying talisman" opened, forming two wings of light that were inserted into Li Yunjing's ribs.

With a gentle flap of those wings, they can glide a mile!
The "flying talisman" is made differently by different sects, and each sect has its own way of flying.

Some sects craft "flying talismans," just like the one Li Yunjing activates. They are based on the characteristics of various birds, condensing two light wings on both sides, allowing the bird to flap its wings and glide through the air like a bird.

Some talisman makers have refined the "flying talisman" into a form that uses the energy under the feet to propel the cultivator's body forward with powerful energy, allowing them to fly rapidly until the energy is exhausted before stopping.

There are also "flying talismans" that, once activated, form flying swords that carry cultivators through the air.

This kind of temporary flying sword has some characteristics of a magical weapon, but it is only for one use.

The various "flying talismans" are all different, but they all utilize external forces to provide Qi Refining cultivators with the ability to fly.

Li Yunjing possesses a magical artifact, which allows him to fly.

Whether it's flying on a sword or activating a Taoist robe to float in the void, it can all be done.

However, Li Yunjing's purpose in going there was to fight, so there was no need for him to waste his magical power.

Li Yunjing disliked expending his strength before a battle, leaving his body in a sub-peak state.

It's fine as it is now; it saves time and effort.

This was Li Yunjing's first all-out flight. His pair of wings shone brightly in the darkness, and each flap covered more than a mile.

After only a few dozen flaps, more than half the journey had already been completed.

This feeling of soaring through the air, with the air forming a gale, and whistling past you is incredibly exhilarating.

After traveling more than sixty miles, Li Yunjing began to slow down and scanned his surroundings with his divine sense.

He kept looking down at the mountains and rivers below, his expression extremely solemn.

When they reached the seventy-mile mark, the power of the "flying talisman" finally disappeared, and Li Yunjing landed in the desolate mountains.

For the remaining distance, walking is a better option for safety.

"Hmm? Something seems off! I feel a little uneasy!"

Upon entering the "Mulberry Ridge" area, Li Yunjing was startled and suddenly sensed a hint of danger!
This is a warning from your own spiritual senses!
This feeling is far more reliable than what the eyes see, the ears hear, the nose smell, or even what the body touches.

"Hehe! Let's see who's plotting against me!"

A dark light emanated from the "Azure Moon Robe," completely enveloping Li Yunjing's body. The "Breaking Qi Spear" had long been put away by Li Yunjing and replaced with the "Azure Sea Listening to the Waves Sword."

In the darkness of the night, the "Azure Sea Listening to the Waves Sword" emitted a faint azure light, forming a unified whole with the forest of "Mulberry Ridge".

Besides the two magical artifacts, all the other magical implements are also ready!
The "Five Poison Needles" were held in the palm of the hand, ready to be activated at any time!
This is Li Yunjing's most powerful hidden weapon; anyone hit by it will die!
Go ahead to dangers!
Li Yunjing was genuinely curious to see who was plotting against him and what kind of scheme they had prepared for him!
They then traversed ten miles through the Mulberry Ridge and became familiar with the terrain.

Li Yunjing had a better idea of ​​what was going on.

Half an hour later, standing at the highest point of Mulberry Ridge, Li Yunjing activated his supernatural powers and looked up at the end of the earth thirteen miles away.

He could vaguely make out a cluster of low buildings, which seemed to be "Mulberry Village".

However, it was late at night, and there were no candles in the village; everything was pitch black.

Only when the endless starlight falls from the void does a sliver of light remain on the earth.
