Starting From a Son in Law to Build a Long Lasting Family
Chapter 344: Lu Quanzhen: My eldest brother seems to be quite fierce!
Purple Nether Secret Realm.
“Ah, Fellow Daoist, spare my life!”
“Fellow Daoist, where have we offended you?”
“Please let us go, we’ll give you all our things.”
In a dense forest, shrill screams echoed.
Several Cultivators were seen fleeing frantically.
Behind them, a man riding a giant wolf was chasing them unhurriedly, occasionally releasing a fireball and wind blade.
However, these fireballs and wind blades were clearly meant to toy with the few people.
The true killing intent came from above!
Above the dense forest, a massive Golden Crown Black Feather Eagle hovered.
Standing on the eagle’s back were a man and a woman.
The man was Tall, with a rugged, fierce face, holding a dark gold greatbow, drawing the bowstring towards the Loose Cultivators fleeing below.
As the bowstring vibrated, a bloody arrow shot out, killing a Loose Cultivator below.
This bloody arrow seemed to possess a demonic nature; after killing someone, the bloody glow on the arrow shaft became even more crimson and terrifying, returning to the Brawny Man’s hand.
“Tuoba Shixiong’s Blood Feather Arrow is becoming sharper. In the Purple Nether Secret Realm now, I’m afraid no one can withstand the power of Senior Brother’s arrow.”
The beautiful woman beside him said to the Tall Man with seductive eyes, her eyes seemingly about to drip water.
“Those madmen from Heaven Sword Sect, and that young man named Lu Qingshan, who was sent by a Core Formation True Person earlier, are not simple.”
“Otherwise, why would I need to waste time here sacrificing arrows?”
The Tall Man’s brows were fierce, and his dark golden eyes were as sharp as a hawk’s.
As he spoke, he gently drew the bowstring again, killing another person.
“Tuoba Lie, you lunatic!”
Only two people remained among those fleeing below, one of them cursing loudly, clearly recognizing the archer.
He never imagined that he would encounter a madman from Yu Ling Sect in the Secret Realm.
“Yu Ling Sect, Tuoba Lie.”
Beside a large tree, Lu Quanzhen, who had concealed himself, saw this scene, looking at the eagle and the man and woman in the sky.
Even from his perspective, this Yu Ling Sect Disciple named Tuoba Lie was far from simple.
He was completely incomparable to the Luoxia Sect Disciple he had killed before.
However, the other party’s actions reminded him of some rumors about Yu Ling Sect.
Although Yu Ling Sect was a Righteous Path Sect, it bordered the Ten Thousand Beast Mountain Range. All Disciples in the Sect contracted Yao Beasts and hunted Yao Beasts, living with Yao Beasts for long periods, which made them prone to animalistic tendencies.
This led to many Yu Ling Sect Disciples having heavy killing intent and acting extremely overbearing in their daily lives.
They were even more reckless than the Sword Cultivators of Heaven Sword Sect.
Now, seeing these three Yu Ling Sect members wantonly slaughtering and taking pleasure in killing, he had truly witnessed it.
However, despite this, he had no intention of intervening in the current situation.
After all, the strength of these three was clearly extraordinary.
Unless he went all out and used a Second Grade Talisman or a Second Grade Puppet, he would not be a match for these three.
But he had backup, and these three, as Yu Ling Sect Disciples, certainly had backup as well.
So, he naturally wouldn’t take that risk.
However, after Tuoba Lie on the eagle’s back shot and killed the Cultivator who had just cursed him, his eyes, gleaming with a dark golden luster, suddenly looked towards Lu Quanzhen’s location.
“Hmm? There’s another one hidden here…”
He stared for a moment, then sneered, drawing his bowstring full and shooting towards Lu Quanzhen’s location.
“Whoosh—”
The bloody arrow, like a rainbow, broke through the air towards Lu Quanzhen’s location.
“Courting death!”
Lu Quanzhen immediately felt himself locked onto by a surge of Qi, and his eyes instantly turned cold.
With a raise of his hand, a five-colored small fish shot out from his palm.
“Rumble!”
The five-colored small fish instantly collided with the bloody arrow, stirring up layers of explosive Qi energy.
“As expected, it’s not simple.”
Lu Quanzhen’s eyes narrowed slightly, and he formed a hand seal, causing the five-colored small fish to emanate surging Five Elements glow, then it abruptly swallowed the bloody arrow.
However, seeing the man riding the wolf not far away looking at him, Lu Quanzhen did not linger.
He immediately performed the Sky Peng Technique, transforming into a blur like a Sky Peng, and swiftly fled.
“Buzz buzz buzz!!!”
The bloody arrow continuously spat out and surged with a bloody glow, breaking open the five-colored small fish and returning to Tuoba Lie’s hand.
“Whose Family Disciple is this person?”
Tuoba Lie on the eagle’s back narrowed his eyes slightly, feeling that his blood arrow had just been somewhat eroded by the opponent.
“Judging by his attire, he’s not from any of our Families.”
The beautiful woman beside him spoke, her face full of surprise.
She hadn’t expected that besides the Geniuses from the other three great Immortal Sects, someone could actually block her Senior Brother’s sharp arrow.
“A bit interesting. Zhou Ba, don’t let him escape.”
Upon hearing this, Tuoba Lie’s eyes revealed a fierce look, staring at the fleeing Lu Quanzhen like prey, and he sneered.
He continued to place the bloody arrow on the bowstring, his Qi locking onto Lu Quanzhen.
Meanwhile, the man riding the giant wolf below, who was busy collecting Storage Pouches, heard his Senior Brother’s words and immediately looked in Lu Quanzhen’s direction, patting his giant wolf.
“Roar!”
The giant wolf roared, stirring up a hurricane around its body, and swiftly flew towards Lu Quanzhen’s direction.
“Are you never going to stop?”
Lu Quanzhen flew swiftly, his eyes cold, and he looked back at the Golden Crown Black Feather Eagle in the sky.
If it were one-on-one, he was confident he could kill the opponent.
But with three opponents, it would be very difficult for him to get close and kill this man Tuoba Lie.
Aside from using a Second Grade Puppet and a Second Grade Talisman, he couldn’t think of how to kill the opponent for a moment.
But if he used a Second Grade Talisman, he had to ensure he killed all three of them at once!
Otherwise, if even one person escaped and later met up with other Yu Ling Sect Disciples, he would be in trouble.
Just as Lu Quanzhen was considering whether to use a Talisman to escape, he suddenly realized that he was not far from Lu Ping’an.
He alone couldn’t guarantee killing all three.
But Lu Ping’an also had Second Grade Talismans in his hand.
As long as Lu Ping’an and he attacked simultaneously, he was confident he could kill all three of them!
Immediately, Lu Quanzhen narrowed his eyes, filled with killing intent, and injected spiritual power into his identity token, sending a request for help to Lu Ping’an.
Then he flew towards Lu Ping’an’s location.
And he held two Second Grade Talismans in his hand, waiting for the right moment.
“Roar!”
The giant wolf’s running speed was very fast, chasing Lu Quanzhen relentlessly.
The Golden Crown Black Feather Eagle in the sky was also the same, firmly locking onto Lu Quanzhen.
At this very moment.
Lu Ping’an in the distance was looking for Spiritual Plants with Kong and his grandson.
It had to be said that Kong’s surveying method indeed had some merit; along the way, Lu Ping’an had gained quite a bountiful harvest.
Although he encountered two Yao Beasts during the process, Lu Ping’an easily dealt with them.
Just then, a token appeared in Lu Ping’an’s hand.
Looking at the slightly trembling token emitting a red glow, his face immediately darkened, and a fierce look appeared in his eyes.
“I have something to do, I’ll go over first!”
Lu Ping’an said to Kong and the other person.
As his words fell, his entire figure shot out, stirring up a long gust of wind and Qi waves that made their robes flap.
“Did Fellow Daoist An encounter something?”
Little Kong looked at the rapidly disappearing Lu Ping’an, his expression somewhat astonished.
“The token that appeared in his hand just now should be a communication token. It seems his friend has encountered something.”
“Let’s go and see. This Fellow Daoist An is very extraordinary. If you can get to know him, there will be many benefits in the future.”
Kong immediately said.
He and Lu Ping’an partnered up, although he valued Lu Ping’an’s combat strength.
But the main reason was that he saw the other party’s generous nature, hoping his grandson could befriend him.
After all, as a Loose Cultivator, he deeply understood the difficulties of Loose Cultivators.
He hoped his grandson could join a faction through the other party and follow him.
“Screech! Screech! Screech!”
Lu Ping’an was very worried about Lu Quanzhen’s safety, and he even used a Divine Movement Talisman on himself, boosting his speed to the extreme, making it difficult for people to capture his speed.
If it weren’t for his Hundred Refinements Treasure Body Technique cultivating to the Fifth Layer, ordinary Qi Refining Cultivators would simply be unable to withstand such speed.
“Hmm!?”
Not long after, Lu Ping’an sensed that the Qi from the token was just ahead.
He saw a Golden Crown Black Eagle hovering in the sky, with two figures on it.
One of them held a bow and arrow, shooting downwards as if hunting.
“You! Courting death!”
Lu Ping’an immediately knew what was happening, and he roared in anger at the figures on the golden eagle, his voice like a clap of thunder from the Nine Heavens.
Lu Ping’an had always disliked fighting and killing, and rarely harbored killing intent.
But at this moment, seeing someone hunting his younger brother like prey, a surge of furious killing intent immediately welled up in his heart!
Die!
Lu Ping’an took a step, and his entire being shot into the sky like a rampant Dragon breaking free from its cage, his tall and brawny body shattering layers of air.
Boom, boom, boom—
His tall and majestic body at this moment resembled a massive Dragon undulating, muscles constantly bulging, his entire frame seemingly growing larger, with endless precious light flowing through his physique.
“Hmm?”
When Tuoba Lie saw Lu Ping’an appear with a roar, his hair instantly stood on end, and he felt a strong sense of danger.
But the next moment, a cruel smile played on his lips, and he loudly said, “Good, good, good! It seems the Purple Nether Secret Realm is truly interesting, adding much fun!”
As he spoke, a black gold arrow appeared in his hand, aimed at Lu Ping’an.
The beautiful woman beside him was naturally not a mere vase.
Seeing this scene, she knew Lu Ping’an was a Body Cultivator and wanted to get close to them.
She immediately formed a hand seal, and a red parasol appeared, suspended in the air, then she held a Magical Artifact bead in her palm.
“Whoosh!”
The black gold arrow burst forth with dazzling light, accompanied by rumbling wind and thunder, shooting towards Lu Ping’an’s glabella, aiming for a single fatal blow.
“Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh!”
Lu Ping’an pulled back his right fist, as if gathering all the power within his body and all the surrounding air into his fist.
A brilliant, immeasurable black giant axe materialized behind him, spanning across the heavens and earth.
“Mountain Splitter!”
As his fist slammed out, the giant axe descended, unleashing an endless, wild, and tyrannical malevolent power, annihilating everything in its path.
“Danger! Danger! Danger!”
At this moment, the alarm bells in Tuoba Lie’s heart suddenly rang out, feeling a cloud of death, an unprecedented pressure engulfing him.
Not only him, but the beautiful female Cultivator beside him, and the Medium Grade Earth Rank Yao Beast, the Golden Crown Black Feathered Eagle, beneath him, were all enveloped by the cloud of death, filled with terror.
They couldn’t understand what was happening.
In the Secret Realm, weren’t only Qi Refining Cultivators allowed to enter?
You’re telling me this level of power belongs to a Qi Refining Cultivator!?
But now they had no time to think, as the divine fist had already annihilated the black gold arrow in its path and arrived before them.
“Boom, boom, boom!”
The red parasol, the body-protecting Magical Artifact bead, the body-protecting Magical Artifact robe, and the body-protecting Qi shield all shattered under the force of the punch.
It perfectly demonstrated what it meant to break all techniques with a single force!
The bodies of the two people and one eagle all exploded at this moment, and large amounts of blood rained down.
“This…”
Lu Quanzhen stared at the sky, completely stunned and bewildered.
He hadn’t even sent a message about how to act, yet Lu Ping’an had already made his move directly.
And his elder brother seemed a bit too fierce!
Even he felt a slight chill in his heart facing such sudden ferocity.
Lu Quanzhen didn’t think much further, his expression turning cold as he looked at the wolf-riding man behind him, his eyes filled with killing intent. “You’ve been chasing for so long, I’d like to see what abilities you possess!”
“How is this possible?!”
The man who was chasing Lu Quanzhen watched the scene in the sky, his face instantly turning pale.
He never expected that his Senior Brother Tuoba would be killed by a single punch!
One must know that this Senior Brother Tuoba was a well-known existence in the Yu Ling Sect, with incredibly astonishing combat power.
Yet now, he was actually killed by a single punch!
And there was also Junior Sister Yang and the Golden Crown Black Feathered Eagle!
His face was incredibly pale, filled with astonishment, and seeing Lu Quanzhen charging towards him, he immediately lost his nerve and wanted to flee.
But the giant wolf he was riding was startled by the powerful aura just now.
“Go!”
He quickly took out a Talisman from his Storage Pouch, intending to use it to escape.
But Lu Quanzhen’s attack had already arrived, the Kunpeng Five Elements Art circulated like a surging torrent, and the Thunder Fire Talisman he had been holding in his hand was also activated instantly.
“Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh!!!”
Rolling thunder and flames charged towards Zhou Ba, and in a breath’s time, they swallowed him and the giant wolf together.
“Quanzhen, are you alright?”
At this moment, Lu Ping’an came beside Lu Quanzhen and asked.
He had held nothing back in that punch, using his full strength, which caused his internal Qi and blood to churn, making his face a little pale.
“I’m fine.”
A warmth rose in Lu Quanzhen’s heart.
He indicated that he had been chased by the three people and couldn’t handle them alone, so he sent a message for help, and he was fine.
“That’s good.”
Lu Ping’an’s face showed a smile upon hearing this.
“I never expected your strength to be so astonishing, Big Brother.”
Lu Quanzhen praised him.
He felt that Lu Ping’an’s current combat power could probably rival Lu Qingshan’s.
However, he could tell that Lu Ping’an’s punch just now came at no small cost.
“It’s alright, I’ve never been clear about my own strength; I’ve never gone all out before.”
Lu Ping’an shook his head and said.
After his Hundred Refinements Treasure Body Technique broke through to the fifth layer, he had only killed a few Cultivators.
Then, on the way to the Purple Nether Secret Realm, he killed a few Qi Refining rogue Cultivators.
So he wasn’t very clear about his combat power.
He only knew that his strength was no weaker than the Qi Refining Ninth Layer.
“These people look quite wealthy; this trip’s harvest isn’t small.”
Lu Quanzhen picked up a pile of Storage Pouches and Magical Artifacts from inside the wolf-riding man’s tattered Magical Artifact robe.
The three of them had hunted many Cultivators, so they had over a dozen Storage Pouches.
Afterward, he and Lu Ping’an picked up all of Tuoba Lie’s and the female Cultivator’s Magical Artifacts and Storage Pouches.
Among these Magical Artifacts, only the red parasol was severely damaged by Lu Ping’an’s punch; the others were still fine.
Lu Quanzhen handed these Storage Pouches to Lu Ping’an, then picked up Tuoba Lie’s black gold great bow and examined it.
He could tell that it was a very top-tier, exquisite Magical Artifact.
“Big Brother, this bow is good. I think it suits you well.”
Lu Quanzhen handed the black gold great bow to Lu Ping’an and said.
Magical Artifacts like bows and arrows not only require magical power but also physical strength.
“It’s indeed quite good, but my archery skills are average; I haven’t practiced in a long time.”
Lu Ping’an took the great bow and tried to draw it to a full moon.
“Big Brother, let’s find a place to rest first.”
“When it’s about time, we’ll head directly to the central area.”
Lu Quanzhen said.
He had originally planned to train in the outer perimeter for a while.
But through several battles, he had a general understanding of his own strength.
Knowing that staying in the outer perimeter was meaningless, he prepared to go directly to the central area.
“Okay.”
Lu Ping’an nodded in response.
“Hmm?”
Just then, Lu Quanzhen’s eyes turned cold as he looked to the side.
He saw an old Daoist priest and a young man cautiously approaching.
He lightly raised his palm, immediately preparing to act.
“Quanzhen, these are friends I met on the way earlier.”
Lu Ping’an quickly called out when he saw this.
“Fellow Daoist An, I saw you looked hurried just now, so I followed to see if I could help in any way.”
Kong immediately spoke up.
He had just sensed the astonishing commotion from this direction.
Now, seeing the ashes and Magical Artifacts on the ground, he roughly guessed the whole story and feared that the two might kill them to silence them.
After all, the Lu Ping’an before him was a kind and benevolent person.
But the Lu Quanzhen before him was different.
He had clearly felt a killing intent from Lu Quanzhen just now.
“Fellow Daoist Kong, Little Fellow Daoist Kong, I plan to go to the central area of the Secret Realm, so I won’t be able to travel with you from now on. I’m truly sorry.”
Lu Ping’an said to the two with an apologetic expression.
“It’s nothing, nothing. We’ve already benefited from Fellow Daoist An’s presence along the way.”
“In that case, Fellow Daoist An, please take care on your journey.”
Kong cupped his hands and said.
“Fellow Daoist An, please take care on your journey!”
Little Kong, who was beside him, also said this, feeling a bit regretful in his heart.
After all, traveling with Lu Ping’an was not only safe but also promised considerable gains.
“Big Brother, let’s go.”
Lu Quanzhen didn’t say much more, put away his things, and left with Lu Ping’an.
The two found an uninhabited place, set up a Formation, and let Lu Ping’an adjust his physical condition before heading to the central area.
“Alas, such a Dragon is not someone we Loose Cultivators can befriend. To have even met him is already great fortune.”
Kong sighed to his grandson after watching the two leave, with some regret.
He had previously thought about befriending the other party to give his grandson a boost.
But now he knew that they, grandfather and grandson, were completely unworthy.
Unless they were both powerful enough to dare to go to the central area with the other party and then come out alive.
“Grandpa, don’t worry, I will definitely Breakthrough to Foundation Establishment in the future; I won’t disappoint you.”
Little Kong took a deep breath and said with a serious expression.
He knew that his grandpa was working so hard at his age entirely because of him.
Otherwise, he could completely rely on his skills to find a small Family to serve as a Guest Elder and enjoy his later years in peace.
