Chapter 372: Chapter 163: Making a Move, Slain with One Sword!_2
 

Lu Changsheng nodded his head.

Red Leaf Valley Market was not very big.

In case of any emergencies, he could rush over quickly.

Thus, he wasn’t worried that Lu Miaoge would encounter any accidents.

Moreover, with Lu Miaoge’s Ninth Level Energy Refinement cultivation level and talismans by her side, as long as she didn’t run into any Foundation Establishment Cultivators, she would be fine.

“Okay,”

Lu Miaoge nodded lightly.

Then, she led two apprentices into the Spiritual Talisman Shop, fully activating the shop’s formations to prevent any robber cultivators from coming again.

Lu Changsheng, holding the Green-Face Sword, steered his flying artifact towards the ‘Peace Talisman Hall.'”

“Hahaha, rob everything now while you can!”

“Once the chaos is subdued, there will be no more chances!”

“Hahaha, exhilarating! With these elixir medicines, I can break through to the Energy Refinement Late Stage.”

On the streets, several robber cultivators were attacking a shop.

After blasting open the shop’s formation, they went in and plundered everything.

“Puff puff puff—”

Seeing this situation, Lu Changsheng stepped forward and struck without any mercy, slashing to kill the offenders.

Robber cultivators deserved death!

In face of such, he naturally would not show mercy.

“These ill-gotten gains will be considered robbing the wicked to aid the poor,”

After burning the bodies of the several people, Lu Changsheng picked up the storage bags, thinking to himself.

“Boom boom boom—”

Just then, a surge of mana power fluctuations swept across the area from ahead.

The nearby loft that was engulfed in flames could no longer bear the burden and collapsed with a crash into ruins.

Lu Changsheng looked up.

He saw the Patriarch of the Yu Family up in the sky, wielding a red-yellow disk and an Ice Blue Crescent Wheel, clashing with a robust man wearing a bamboo hat and holding a red long knife.

Each collision of their magic artifacts caused a fearsome might.

“This Patriarch of the Yu Family seems pretty weak,”

Lu Changsheng frowned slightly as he watched the robust man and the Patriarch of the Yu Family fight.

He noted that the Patriarch of the Yu Family’s strength seemed no different from that of the former Lu Family Ancestor and Ancestor Chen.

Compared to the red-robed youth and Meng Yibai, he was much weaker.

“Well, that’s to be expected. Qingzhu Mountain, Hundred Birds Lake, Wugong Ridge, and even Bi Lake Mountain – these families are all minor ones.”

“Not only is their foundation limited, their ancestors spend most of their time after the Foundation Establishment in the family, rarely venturing out for experience, so their strength is naturally ordinary.”

“It’s impossible for them to compare with robber cultivators that dare to plunder the marketplace, let alone the red-robed youth and Meng Yibai from before,”

Lu Changsheng thought internally.

This robust man who dared to rob the marketplace naturally had some strength and methods.

As for the red-robed youth and Meng Yibai,

he had reaped spoils of war valued at more than one hundred thousand spirit stones from the red-robed youth,

among which there was even a Peripheral Sect Level cultivation method.

From this, one could see that this person was not simple.

One should know that the four big families, with hundreds of years of inheritance, had at most High Grade Cultivation Techniques and Exquisite Level Cultivation Methods.

From this, one could see the disparity between them.

As for Meng Yibai, there was no need to say more.

Not only was he an elite disciple of Qingyun Sect, but he also had a False Core elder, so naturally, his strength was among the best.

“However, looking at this robber cultivator, he seems to still have some strength to spare,”

Lu Changsheng’s brows furrowed as he watched the grey-robed robber cultivator who kept clashing with the Patriarch of the Yu Family.

He felt that the other party was dealing with the Patriarch of the Yu Family’s attacks quite comfortably, as if he had plenty of room to maneuver.

“This robber cultivator is just trying to delay the Patriarch of the Yu Family,”

Lu Changsheng’s eyes narrowed slightly.

He glanced again at the marketplace’s ‘Green Water Cloud Formation’ that was flickering in the sky above.

At that moment, the formation was already fully operational.

But under the constant interference of endless lightning, it could only defend and seal off the marketplace, making it difficult to suppress the enemy.

“Indeed, these robber cultivators came prepared, and there are quite a few accomplices,”

“What he wants to do is to keep the Patriarch of the Yu Family occupied while his accomplices take the opportunity to plunder the marketplace,”

“So, he doesn’t want to push the Patriarch of the Yu Family into a corner,”

“After all, although the marketplace’s Green Water Cloud Formation is interfered with and affected, it’s not broken.”

“If the Patriarch of the Yu Family gets desperate and abandons the marketplace’s seal, letting the formation fully enhance his own body to attack and subdue the enemy, this person will also have a tough time handling it—he might not die but would surely be skinned,”

Lu Changsheng stroked his chin and roughly understood the situation.

The marketplace’s ‘Green Water Cloud Formation’ was indeed being interfered with from multiple angles.

But it was not useless.

It’s just that by using its full force to seal the marketplace, it was no longer available for subduing enemies.

If the Patriarch of the Yu Family abandoned the formation’s sealing and was willing to pay some price, he could still control the formation to kill enemies.

But doing that would not only result in his own loss.

The marketplace would descend into complete chaos as well.

After all, no one was clear about the situation of the robber cultivators inside and outside the marketplace.

Currently, there were many loose cultivators who, seeing the marketplace sealed by the formation, did not dare to take the risk and become robber cultivators.

If there was no longer a formation seal, then all restraints would be lifted.

“However, continuing like this is not the solution,”

“This Patriarch of the Yu Family is too useless; he clearly cannot take down this robber cultivator, he can only delay and wait for reinforcements to arrive,”

“But it will take at least an hour for help from nearby Qingzhu Mountain to arrive,”

“In an hour, this marketplace will have been completely plundered, with not only heavy losses incurred but also the number of people coming here will surely plummet,”

Lu Changsheng watched as the marketplace gradually erupted into flames, with the sounds of spells exploding and clashing coming from afar, his brows slightly furrowed.

He knew that if this continued, not only would the marketplace be robbed, but many would die as well.

“Forget it, I might as well take action,”

“After all, it’s considered my marketplace, and I’ll need to stay here for a long time,”

Lu Changsheng thought to himself, ready to disguise himself and step in to end the chaos.

Just at that moment, the Sensing Talisman in his storage bag lit up.

It was Xiao Xiyue’s Sensing Talisman.
