After giving their instructions, the two said goodbye and prepared to leave.
But just as they stepped out the door, they suddenly heard someone calling out from afar.
"Master Su!"
"It's not good, it's not good!"
Deep in the woods, Wencai ran over, covered in dust and dirt. He struggled to reach the door, too exhausted to speak, and could only swallow his saliva in place.
"What's wrong?" Su Feng leaned against the door and teased, "Can't you even handle a simple task?"
Moreover, the list doesn't contain many materials, so the two of them should be able to bring them back.
Judging from Wencai's disheveled appearance and ashen face, he must have gotten into some trouble on the way.
"Where's Qiusheng?" Su Feng looked up into the distance but didn't see Qiusheng.
I thought these two were always inseparable.
Looks like he's off somewhere slacking off.
"Young Master Su..." Wen Cai finally caught his breath, wiped the sweat from his forehead, and hurriedly said, "Something's happened! Qiu Sheng has been taken away by the Corpse Refining Sect!"
The taboo words instantly made Su Feng serious. "What exactly happened?!"
"We were originally going to buy medicinal herbs from the herb shop as Young Master Su instructed, but we encountered two suspicious people on the way. They claimed to be from the Corpse Refining Sect!"
"Worried that their appearance in Renjia Town might be part of some conspiracy, Qiusheng and I secretly followed them all the way to a dilapidated temple on the outskirts of town. Who knew we'd fall into their ambush! Qiusheng was injured, and I escaped in the chaos. Now, now..."
Wen Cai was so anxious that tears were almost coming out, and towards the end he even bit his tongue, wincing in pain.
"My master isn't at the mortuary, so I had to rush here. Please, Young Master Su, you must save Qiu Sheng!"
After hearing the whole story, Su Feng understood what had happened.
Just as he suspected, members of the Corpse Refining Sect had infiltrated Renjia Town!
It seems that the dilapidated house where the Bloodlust Technique was found was the former residence of a disciple of the Corpse Refining Sect!
"Young Master, what exactly is this Corpse Refining Sect?"
Chen Yue, standing to the side, listened with curiosity.
Su Feng didn't reply, but suddenly had a bold idea, "Chen Yue and Chen Xing, don't go back for now, come with us."
This unexpected incident might just be an opportunity! It would allow him to properly test Chen Yue Chen Xing's combat abilities!
I was just worried about not finding an opponent.
Although the first battle was against a disciple of the Corpse Refining Sect, the challenge was quite difficult.
But Chen Yue and Chen Xing are pure Yin bodies, one in ten thousand chosen ones. How can they improve if they are not pushed?
Besides, with him by my side as a bodyguard, there's no chance of anything going wrong.
"Wencai, lead the way!"
At Su Feng's command, Wen Cai, without even taking a break, turned around and ran ahead.
Chen Yue and Chen Xing exchanged a glance, but without any hesitation, they chose to obey Su Feng's words and followed behind.
……
Inside a dilapidated temple on the outskirts of Renjia Town, several tall figures stood.
Their clothes and appearance were no different from those of ordinary people. One of them, Old Zhang, who sold fish, was someone Qiu Sheng knew.
Now that their identities have been exposed, their former labels have disappeared, leaving them only with the identity of being members of the Corpse Refining Sect!
"Old Zhang, you, you're actually from the Corpse Refining Sect?"
Qiu Sheng, bound hand and foot and thrown in a corner, spoke incredulously to the people by the door.
His gaze fell on Zhang, the fishmonger, and he continued to press, "Were you lying from the beginning? What about your wife and children? Do they know about this?"
Fishmonger Zhang's face darkened, his usual honest and simple demeanor replaced by a sinister expression. "Shut the fuck up!"
"You have no right to speak now!"
The two people who had been acting suspiciously in town earlier were also there, standing next to Zhang the fishmonger.
"Senior brother, what should we do with this kid?" Changtian, with his shifty eyes, asked, turning back to Qiusheng with a malicious smile.
The burly Changbai didn't speak, but his expression was unusually fierce.
"Fishmonger Zhang" Changxuan lit a cigarette, his brows furrowed. "This kid is the apprentice of Lin Jiu, the Taoist priest in town. The Wencai who ran away earlier is also an apprentice. He must have gone back to inform Lin Jiu."
Upon hearing this, Changtian panicked. "That Daoist Lin Jiu from Maoshan? In that case, this kid can't be allowed to live!"
Uncle Nine's name was already a household name in Renjia Town. He was skilled in everything from exorcising demons to catching ghosts, and was everyone's life-saving charm.
Having lived a fake life in Renjia Town for so many years and had dealt with him before, Changxuan naturally understood how difficult this person was to deal with.
“Let me handle this kid,” Changbai said, turning around and walking towards Qiusheng. He rolled up his sleeves, revealing his strong arms. “With just a little effort, I can snap this kid’s neck!”
“That’s right, senior brother. Let Changbai deal with this troublesome guy, and then we should leave quickly. We shouldn’t stay here any longer.”
Changtian echoed this.
Being followed was an accident, but we can't let this momentary lapse ruin our plans!
Seeing this, Qiu Sheng trembled with fear and quickly begged for mercy, "Old Zhang, I've known you for so many years! I've patronized your business many times, how could you be so heartless!"
Since there's no way to escape, the only option left is to play the emotional card, which seems to awaken the humanity in "Fishmonger Zhang".
But Qiu Sheng seemed to have forgotten that the three people on the other side were all disciples of the Corpse Refining Sect, so there was no question of feelings between them.
"Hmph!" Chang Xuan sneered, raising his chin high. "Blame it on you all for being too nosy..."
"I have been disguising my identity in Renjia Town for the past twenty years, all for the sake of finding an opportunity one day to rebuild the glory of the Corpse Refining Sect!"
"This is the wish of all disciples of the Corpse Refining Sect!"
Chang Xuan's eyebrows twitched, and he said decisively, "To achieve our great cause, we are willing to sacrifice anyone!"
Oops!
They're determined to take action!
Qiu Sheng panicked and shouted, "If I hadn't discovered your identity today, but instead found out about your wife and children, would you still have killed them?"
Chang Xuan was taken aback. "If they become an obstacle to my grand plan, I will not let them live either."
Upon hearing this last sentence, Qiu Sheng realized that no matter how much he tried to persuade him, it would be useless.
A person who can kill his own wife and children would not care about the lives of others.
As expected of the Corpse Refining Sect...
Qiu Sheng could only think this way, and in despair, he closed his eyes and raised his head.
Knowing that he was doomed, he gave up on struggling.
"Let's do it."
Changxuan gave Changbai a look, and the latter quickly came up behind Qiusheng and wrapped his arm around Qiusheng's neck.
"Kid, stay still, I'll free you soon."
When Changbai's cold voice reached his ears, Qiusheng felt his mind go blank.
Faced with death, he felt nothing but fear and a sense of being forced to accept it.
He couldn't even believe it was real, thinking it was just a dream.
The arms around his neck tightened, and as they gradually exerted force, a feeling of suffocation made Qiu Sheng's eyes widen, and his face instantly turned red.
In the past, I followed my master all over the country and faced attacks from zombies and ghosts more than once. I was in danger, but I always managed to escape unscathed.
I never imagined that I would lose my life at the hands of my own kind!
Just then, a sound came from outside the door.
With a whoosh, a small stone shot in from outside the open door!
With a sharp thud, the needle pierced Changbai's arm, spurting blood. The pain caused Changbai to release his grip and take a few steps back.
"what happened?!"
"Who's out there?!"
Changxuan and Changtian exchanged glances, drew their magical artifacts, and looked outside warily.
Under the sunlight, several figures slowly walked over.
"I really didn't expect that a member of the Corpse Refining Sect would be right next to me."
Su Feng's voice drew near, and then, like a phantom, he walked straight through the hall and appeared before everyone.
"Young Master Su!"
When Qiu Sheng saw the person who had arrived, his hope was rekindled, and he excitedly shouted out.
"Qiu Sheng, we've come to save you!"
Su Feng wasn't the only one who arrived; Wen Cai and Chen Yuechenxing were also there! They followed closely behind.
The sudden appearance of four people in the not-so-spacious, dilapidated temple surprised the sect leader and the others.
"They arrived so quickly?!"
Before they could even finish packing, reinforcements arrived! Much faster than they had expected!
Su Feng stood still, his cold gaze quickly sweeping around.
Apart from Qiu Sheng, the other three should all be disciples of the Corpse Refining Sect.
However, compared to Wuji and others whom 030 encountered before, he was much younger, and his spiritual energy was not strong, with his cultivation level around the fifth level of Qi Transformation...
With this, Su Feng felt even more at ease.
"I recognize you! You are the eldest young master of the Su family!"
Chang Xuan frowned, and asked in astonishment, "How did you get here?!"
Su Feng raised an eyebrow. "Why should I need to explain my actions to you?"
"Hmph! What a joke!" Chang Xuan sneered, glancing sideways at Wen Cai behind Su Feng. "I thought you went back to call your master, but I didn't expect the helper you called would be this spoiled brat! You're courting death!"
