“Ping’an,” Elder Yansheng asked, “didn’t you promise the Patriarch of the Tuoba family?”
“Yes, I went back on my word.”
Li Ping’an pulled out the longsword, Tuoba Han’s Primordial Spirit had been pulled out and was thrown into Elder Yansheng’s hands by Li Ping’an.
Li Ping’an said, “I’d trouble you, Elder, to clean up after searching his memories…
it dirtied my sword.”
“Ah,” Elder Yansheng sighed, “the Blood Fiend Hall truly deserves death!”
A streak of ice blue Immortal Light flashed outside the city.
It was Qing Su leading over a dozen Heavenly Immortal generals, swiftly heading to Dong’an City for reinforcement.
The next day, dawn had just broken.
Although two fiends were eliminated overnight, Li Ping’an wasn’t too happy.
In the new residence within Dong’an City.
Li Ping’an placed a recliner in front of the door, propped up a sunshade, and lay down to let his legs soak up the sun, relaxing his spirit as much as possible.
A slight breeze blew by, gently fluttering the loose cloth on Li Ping’an’s body.
He yawned, putting down the Jade Talisman in his hand, mulling over the phrases he needed for the ‘memorial to the throne’ he was drafting.
A thread of Immortal Light fell from the sky, merging into the array of the residence, transforming into a delicate and lovely figure.
It was naturally Qing Su the Immortal, returning from her task.
Li Ping’an stood up to greet her, then pulled out another recliner from his sleeve, placing it on the other side of the sunshade, and cheerfully said, “Master, you’ve worked hard.”
“Hmm, it’s alright, I just didn’t get to engage in magical combat, which was a bit unsatisfying.”
Qing Su removed her cloak and stored it in her Storage Treasure, her long skirt swirling as she comfortably lay down.
She said, “All’s arranged, the thousand-strong team left by the Eastern Alliance is stationed at the edge of the city, they will stay for ten years.”
“The seniors from the Eastern Alliance are indeed thoughtful.”
Li Ping’an said with a smile:
“With this military presence, the security here will be close to that of our sect’s gates.
“Later, I can cultivate in peace for a while and properly set up our Wanyun Sect’s establishments.”
“Have those fiends’ Primordial Spirits been interrogated yet?”
“Still in the process,” Qing Su pondered a moment, “there’s something else you need to know, I can’t decide on my own.”
“Master, please speak, your disciple is listening.”
“The ordeal of the Tuoba family has started spreading everywhere, and Blood Fiend Hall has incited public anger.”
Qing Su spoke softly:
“Last night, I led eight thousand Immortal Soldiers to the Tuoba clan.
We discovered lots of Demonic Qi amongst their people, but those were just Qi Cultivators of low strength.
“When we were about to take action, they suddenly died…
We now know that they were implanted with Demon Seeds by the Blood Fiend Hall’s Hunger-extreme Fiend.”
“During our search on the Tuoba clan’s grounds, after we lifted their mansion, a mass of white bones appeared beneath, along with numerous treasures.”
She now held a storage ring in her hand, and said solemnly:
“These treasures are all in here, I’m uncertain how to deal with them.”
“Master, are you suggesting that the Tuoba house was actually a den of demons?”
“Yes,” Qing Su said, “I really didn’t expect that just one Hunger-extreme Fiend would be so harmful!”
Li Ping’an said, “The Tuoba family was essentially a branch of the Blood Fiend Hall.
That Hunger-extreme Fiend must have come from the Tuoba house…
This old fiend was hammered to death by Elder Xu Sheng, which was really too easy on him.”
Qing Su’s eyes shone with a hint of radiance, speaking softly:
“How about, in the future, we, master and disciple, together cleanse the East Continent of its evil demons?”
Li Ping’an smiled, “If it is master’s order, how could your disciple not obey?”
Qing Su said, “What if it’s not an order from me?”
“Then maybe, I’d wait until I reach the Heavenly Immortal Realm, the Golden Immortal Realm, before I combat these evil demons.”
Li Ping’an said earnestly:
“As you know, Master, I’m not even a Primordial Immortal yet.”
Qing Su murmured to herself, “It’s strange, your comprehension has reached such a level, why haven’t you attained immortality?”
Li Ping’an smiled, “As the saying goes, ‘When the heavens are about to place a great responsibility on a man, they first wear down his spirit and body, preventing him from achieving what he wishes.’
“What does that mean?”
“This disciple is here, sharpening myself,” Li Ping’an said earnestly, “just waiting for when I feel I am sufficiently honed, then I’ll soar to the skies!
Ascent to the peaks of the azure clouds!”
Qing Su smiled contentedly, her hand now holding a jade scroll.
She said, “I’m going to read the scriptures.”
“Master, once I’ve finished writing this memorial, let’s go to the beach for a barbecue!
We’ll invite Elder Yansheng and Minister Weiyen!”
“Why go to the beach for a barbecue when we can just do it in the courtyard?” Qing Su asked, “Why must we go to the sea?”
“It’s a little wish of mine!”
“Alright then, I’ll ask Ling’er to make some preparations.
It’s a pity Ningning isn’t here; we’ll miss a lot of fun.”
In the Wanyun Sect, within Castcloud Hall.
Xinhuai Wang, who had yet to have the chance to replace his identity token as an outer hall elder, appeared before Li Dazhi, travel-stained.
“Ancestor, there’s indeed a small problem with the Mu family.”
