After the witch ripped out his heart, this mortal body began to lose control.

Lu Changsheng's fingertips lightly touched his waist, breaking through thousands of troops.

He thought to himself: The sword has already recognized its master, and only I can wield it. What use is it to you?

Besides, why would I easily give you the treasure I worked so hard to obtain?

However, he put on a humble smile and clasped his hands in greeting.

"Brother Yang, you flatter me. If I truly possess an ancient treasure, I will certainly grant your request. The stability that Yunyang City enjoys today is largely due to the efforts of the City Lord's Mansion."

It's just a pity that my cultivation level is too low. I'm lucky to have survived, let alone found any ancient treasures.

I've disappointed Brother Yang.

Lu Changsheng certainly knew Yang Tianjin, the young city lord of Yunyang City, but since the other party was a so-called big shot in Yunyang City, the two had no prior interaction.

Upon hearing this, a man with a bow on his back next to Yang Tianjin was about to step forward and refute him.

"I clearly saw it that day..."

Unexpectedly, Yang Tianjin reached out and blocked him, interrupting his words.

"In that case, I misunderstood!"

"Young Master, he's clearly lying!..."

The man with the bow on his back next to him wanted to speak, but Yang Tianjin stopped him with a look.

Yang Tianjin's originally humble gaze unconsciously flashed with a hint of ruthlessness when he looked at the man with the bow on his back.

Seeing this, the man with the bow on his back dared not speak again and quickly shut his mouth.

"Hmph! The second young master is, after all, the second young master, and is indeed no match for the eldest young master!"

How could you be so cowardly in front of a mere Qi Refining Realm junior!

Having so many people around is a waste.

If it were Yang Tianyou in your place, would he be as cowardly as you?

A sinister, mocking voice pierced the air, followed by a powerful pressure sweeping in.

A sickly, thin figure sat atop a crane, embroidered with gold thread in a brocade robe. Behind him stood a hundred cultivators, their auras heavy and composed. It was none other than Li Yuansheng, the eldest son of the Li family in Yunyang City.

The Li family and the city lord's mansion have always been at odds, and he especially looks down on Yang Tianjin, the second son born out of wedlock. At this moment, he speaks sarcastically without any mercy.

Yang Tianjin's expression remained calm, but he subtly tightened his grip on the fan without retaliating.

Seeing his restraint, Li Yuansheng felt bored and glanced around the room.

When the light fell on Shen Qinghe, the arrogance instantly turned into a warm smile.

"Qinghe, I knew you were back, but I visited your residence several times and couldn't find you."

Our families are close friends, and we've been childhood sweethearts. We should communicate more!

Shen Qinghe looked at the young master of the Li family and immediately showed a look of disgust.

She found even a glance at these spoiled young masters who had been drained by wine and women annoying.

"We are worlds apart, there is no need for us to meet, so please don't bother me again!"

Upon hearing this, the young master of the Li family felt humiliated, but due to Shen Qinghe's terrifying strength, he dared not lash out at her.

He originally wanted to vent his anger on Yang Tianjin, that coward, but he didn't expect Lu Changsheng to be standing in the center at that moment, in such an eye-catching position that he was spotted.

Only then did the young master of the Li family remember his intention and immediately looked at Lu Changsheng.

At this moment, Lu Changsheng's eyes were calm as he looked him over, staring at him without any fear.

How could such a useless person with mixed spiritual roots obtain ancient treasures from secret realms?

Why would Shen Qinghe favor such a useless person?

On what grounds? Just because his grandfather was once the number one person in Yunyang City?

The thought that such a stunning beauty as Shen Qinghe would actually marry a useless man with mixed spiritual roots was unbearable.

And this useless person with mixed spiritual roots showed no fear when looking at him.

This spoiled young master of the Li family was even more displeased.

He looked down at Lu Changsheng and said:

"Young man, I don't want to beat around the bush."

Not long ago, the aura of that ancient treasure was sensed by all the Foundation Establishment cultivators in the city.

If you know what's good for you, hand over the ancient treasure, and I'll guarantee you a worry-free future.

"I'm not as easy to talk to as that good-for-nothing over there. I have plenty of methods!"

Lu Changsheng hadn't expected that the commotion caused by Po Qianjun would attract these important figures.

It's no longer feasible to continue trying to dodge the issue.

Lu Changsheng lowered his eyes and glanced at the ancient sword at his waist, already having made up his mind.

He then calmly said:

"I have long heard of Young Master Li's methods, so I would never try anything funny in front of you."

Mr. Lu stopped pretending and admitted, "I did indeed acquire an ancient treasure."

Upon hearing this, all the cultivators present craned their necks in anticipation, and hundreds of eyes fell on Lu Changsheng.

He casually unfastened the Broken Thousand Armor from his waist.

"This sword is an ancient treasure that I brought out from the ancient tomb."

"Take it if you want it."

He handed over the ancient sword directly.

The sword has recognized him as its master, and he and the sword are of one mind. He can recall it with just a thought, so he has no worries about it being taken away by someone else.

Since this young master of the Li family wants this hot potato,

Then give it to him.

Firstly, it can resolve the current predicament; secondly, it can divert the trouble elsewhere.

He called out to the young master of the Li family, "Young Master Li, catch it!"

As soon as he finished speaking, he made a move to throw Po Qianjun to that young master Li.

Seeing this, everyone present was filled with doubt.

The broken sword in his hand was unremarkable and had nothing to do with the legendary ancient treasure.

Besides, how could someone who risked their life to bring back an ancient treasure so easily hand it over?

The cultivators present were all meticulous individuals, including seven or eight Foundation Establishment cultivators, yet none of them noticed anything unusual about the sword.

This broken sword could never be an ancient treasure!

This was the consensus of everyone, and the young master of the Li family believed it without a doubt.

Do you think I'm a three-year-old?

You think you can just find some scrap metal and fool me?

I'm going to search your storage bag!

……

Lu Changsheng smiled faintly; this was indeed beyond his expectations.

It seems these so-called Foundation Establishment Immortals aren't all that great!

That's fine too; it's good that we don't have to reveal our trump card, Breaking a Thousand Armies, too early.

As for searching his storage bags, he didn't care; he had three storage bags on him.

One bag contained prey for hunting, another for daily training and combat needs, and the last storage bag contained some small items for his survival.

The young master of the Li family continued to exert pressure, and his words were harsh.

"Handing over the storage bag will only benefit you."

"With your mixed spiritual root and Qi Refining Realm cultivation, even if you obtained an ancient treasure, it would be a waste of its potential."

These words were so hurtful that Lu Changsheng frowned slightly upon hearing them.

This person is sharp-tongued and has repeatedly humiliated others without leaving any room for compromise.

It seems like they're deliberately making things difficult, but in reality, they're trying to provoke me.

Thinking of this, Lu Changsheng threw out his daily cultivation storage bag without hesitation.

"No problem, it's just a search of storage bags, right?"

What harm would it do to give it to you?

Young Master Li took it and probed it with his divine sense, but found nothing.

He immediately made up his mind.

It seems that the ancient treasure is in the hands of that old bastard Lu Chengfeng.

He still refused to let Lu Changsheng go, and even if he didn't find the ancient treasure, he still wanted to take the opportunity to humiliate him severely.

He dumped everything from his storage bag onto the ground, his face full of disdain, and said:

"I never imagined that the grandson of the former number one was so poor. His entire fortune consisted of only a few dozen low-grade spirit stones, plus a pile of scrap metal."

What makes you different from a beggar on the street?

No wonder he was in such a hurry to marry into the Shen family; it seems that if he couldn't secure this marriage, he probably wouldn't even be able to raise cultivation resources.
