Yu Guanhai walked very slowly, pausing every step.
The fight between Di Wu and Shangguan Ping just now had completely subverted his cognition and made him realize that there is a kind of person in this world who can take his own life casually.
The unknown is the most terrifying thing!
Yu Guanhai was always cautious, and even he did not completely believe what his own daughter said. After picking up the sword on the ground, he did not rush over immediately, but observed as he walked.
As long as Di Wu had the slightest sign that he could act, he would abandon his sword and run away with his biological daughter without hesitation.
However, as Yu Guanhai approached step by step, Di Wu never moved even though his face was red and sweating profusely.
"He really can't move?"
Yu Guanhai gradually believed this fact.
His courage grew again.
"Little beast?"
"The Di family's little beast?"
After scolding him several times and seeing that Di Wu still had no response, Yu Guanhai finally felt relieved.
"Hahaha! Little beast, so what if you learn a skill? It's not like you're going to die when you come back! I'll send you on your way right now, and let your family stay together!"
Yu Guanhai did not hesitate, held the sword with both hands, and stabbed Di Wu in the back of the heart.
At this moment, Di Wu's right leg, which had been motionless, suddenly straightened and tapped lightly on the ground with his toes.
"Whoosh!"
With a sound breaking through the air, a silver needle shot out from his leggings at an extremely fast speed, piercing Yu Guanhai's throat in just an instant!
It turned out that Di Wu was not completely unable to move, but most of his spiritual power was locked by the jade pendant. What was left was only enough to maintain the circulation of evil energy in his body, and he could not use cultivation methods to deal with Yu Guanhai.
But there is also a hidden weapon hidden in his calf.
Yun Jin made this for him when he was traveling in the world. When they first met that year, Yun Jin issued a hidden weapon from his calf to kill the members of the Black Tiger Gang.
Later, when the two of them grew up, Yun Jin improved this hidden weapon many times and made a pair for both Di Wu and Le Feiyang's calves.
Di Wu and Shangguan Ping fought to the end, neither of them could use their magical powers, but Di Wu could still move a little bit, but he deliberately didn't show it, and had to wait for Yu Guanhai to get close before firing this deadly hidden weapon, hoping to kill him with one blow!
As expected, Yu Guanhai fell into the trap. The sword in his hand was only halfway through when he suddenly felt a sharp pain in his throat, followed by numbness all over his body, and he lost even the slightest bit of strength.
"harsh."
He opened his mouth, as if he wanted to say something, but because his throat was pierced and blood surged, he could only utter a few meaningless syllables.
In the end, Yu Guanhai fell down weakly, his eyes widened, and he didn't understand what happened until he died.
"father!"
Seeing her biological father die in front of her, Shangguan Ping was so shocked that she couldn't help but scream.
It didn't matter that she was distracted, Di Wu seized the opportunity.
"It's now!"
Di Wu narrowed his eyes slightly, bit the tip of his tongue, and sprayed his blood essence on his arm. The bloody hand instantly glowed with a coquettish red light, and the speed of absorbing blood essence suddenly increased by 30%!
Shangguan Ping was distracted for a moment and was taken advantage of by Di Wu's evil spirit, which quickly broke the previous balance and was no longer able to resist it.
Her essence and blood were extracted from the body at an extremely fast speed. In just a few breaths, this young and beautiful female nun already had white hair and looked dozens of years older.
In an instant, the outcome is decided!
Shangguan Ping also knew at this time that she was certain to die, but she still refused to bow her head and said viciously: "Little thief, you dare to kill me! Even if you offend Ziyang Guan, your Tiansha Pavilion can't protect you!"
"Hmph, I don't need you to worry about my life or death!"
Di Wu was determined to kill, and he was merciless. He used the "Ningsha Jue" to its extreme, and frantically drained Shangguanping's blood essence.
After a while, Shangguanping's hands hung down weakly. Her face was withered and her hair was white, like an old woman in the world, and there was no longer any life in her body.
boom!
There was a crisp sound, and with Shangguan Ping's death, the jade pendant also shattered in mid-air, turned into powder, and dissipated in mid-air.
Everything is finally settled!
Di Wu turned over with difficulty, lay on his back and took a deep breath.
At this moment, he felt more relaxed than ever before, but at the same time there was a sense of emptiness that he didn't know what to do with.
"Father! Mother! Have you seen it? The child finally got his revenge. I dare not forget this bloody feud for eighteen years!"
Di Wu murmured to himself, and in a daze, he saw two familiar figures emerging in the air.
The middle-aged man smiled and nodded slightly, looking very pleased. The dignified and beautiful woman waved gently, her eyes full of love, as if she wanted to take him into her arms.
"Dad, my dear, I miss you."
Di Wu shed tears for the first time in eighteen years.
Tears blurred his vision, and the figures in the air gradually became blurry, as if there were ripples on the water.
A moment later, another heroic woman appeared in the air.
The woman turned back and smiled at him.
"Silly brother, why are you crying? We will be a family from now on. Don't hide it in your heart when you are bullied. Tell your sister and she will stand up for you!"
"hehe."
Di Wu cried and laughed at the same time, his eyes soaked with tears: "Sister Yun, I didn't expect that you saved me in the end."
A few days later, Wuling City was in an uproar.
Whether it's an inn, a tavern, or a street market, everyone is discussing one thing, that is, the former magistrate, the prominent Shangguan family, was actually wiped out in one day!
It is said that the situation in the mansion was very miserable. There were more than 300 members of the Shangguan family, all of whom had their heads chopped off, and their headless corpses were hung upside down from the beams.
Moreover, the people inside were dead for three days and three nights before they were discovered. When the officers and soldiers rushed in, the stench was already overwhelming, and all kinds of rotten insects crawled all over the ground, which was disgusting.
When the prefect was killed, the court immediately sent people to investigate, but all the officials who came here shook their heads.
Anyone with a discerning eye knows what kind of ruthless person is behind a family of more than 300 people dying silently? The officials in charge of the investigation were just doing their job and didn't want to have their own heads involved, so in the end they just let it go.
.
However, just because ordinary people can't find things, it doesn't mean that cultivators don't know about them either.
At the moment when the jade pendant on Shangguan Ping's body was shattered, in a Taoist temple thousands of miles away from Wuling City, a kind-hearted and beautiful middle-aged woman suddenly opened her eyes and woke up from her trance.
"Strange, why is your heart beating so fast?"
The beautiful woman frowned slightly and suddenly took out a scroll from her sleeve and slowly unfolded it in front of her.
There are fifteen names written on the scroll, and behind each name there is a jade pendant mark. The first fourteen marks all exude a faint glow, but the last one is dim.
"No! Something happened to Ping'er!"
The beautiful woman exclaimed, rushed out of the Taoist temple, turned into a ball of blue clouds, left the top of the mountain in an instant, and flew towards Wuling City.
Two months later, in Tiansha Pavilion, in the meeting hall.
A beautiful middle-aged woman sat on the seat on the right, and an old man with a white beard sat on the left. Behind both of them were several disciples. The atmosphere was a little subtle, and there was a vague feeling of tension.
"So, Taoist Fellow Tianxuan is not going to hand over that boy?" the middle-aged beautiful woman said coldly.
The white-bearded old man was silent for a moment, then sighed and said: "Friend Taoist Brother Ci, you have no eyesight in fighting. Deaths and injuries are inevitable. What's more, this is a grudge between juniors, and you, a monk of the Juyuan Realm, intervened in it.
, it’s hard to avoid lowering one’s status a bit.”
"snort!"
Master Ci Mei snorted coldly and said calmly: "If someone else died, I would only blame him for his lack of academic skills, but Shangguan Ping is extremely talented and has an unlimited future. Even the master of our sect likes her."
Plus, I originally thought that after going down the mountain to visit relatives, I would let her practice in seclusion in the mountain, but I didn’t expect that something bad happened when she went down the mountain this time. How can I not be angry?”
"This is her destiny. There is no way to avoid it. Why should fellow Taoists force it?" Master Tianxuan said leisurely.
"What kind of fate? It's obviously because of your poor discipline in Tiansha Pavilion! I won't talk nonsense with you and bring Di Wu here quickly. Anyway, he is just one of your outer disciples. Without this person, it will be a big loss to you."
There is no loss, but it can calm the anger of our sect master."
After hearing this, Master Tianxuan pondered for a moment, shook his head and said: "A mere outer disciple is indeed insignificant to our sect, but this matter involves the face of our Tiansha Pavilion.
"Tianxuan, don't talk to me about this! The blood debt must be paid with blood. Hand over Di Wu, otherwise... Huh!" Although Master Cimei did not finish his words, the threat was no longer concealed.
Master Tianxuan's expression also darkened: "Cimei, you spoke so harshly, are you planning to start a war with our sect over a disciple who is in the Qi refining stage?"
Master Cimei sneered: "What? The last time the eight sects discussed Taoism, you still couldn't defeat Tiansha Pavilion?"
"You're such a kind sister, do you really think that our Tiansha Pavilion is made of mud?" Master Tianxuan slapped the mahogany table in front of him to pieces.
Seeing that the atmosphere in the palace was tense, behind Master Cimei, a young man with delicate features suddenly stepped forward and whispered a few words into Master Cimei's ears.
Master Cimei frowned, his face changed again and again, and finally nodded slowly.
She just heard her say: "Tianxuan, I won't argue with you. There is a mine in Jinyan Ridge. Although the ore in it is not rich, it is enough for Junior Establishment to refine the weapon. As long as you hand over the
Di Wu, our sect is willing to give up that mine."
After hearing this, Master Tianxuan raised his eyebrows and seemed to be a little moved, but he did not answer immediately.
"Tianxuan." Immortal Cimei said coldly at this time: "Our sect has already given in, so don't even think about selling it for a price. This is already the bottom line of our Ziyang Temple. If your Tiansha Pavilion still insists on protecting it,
That kid, just wait for our Ziyang Temple to declare war!"
After saying that, Master Cimei stood up, flicked his sleeves, and made a gesture to leave.
Master Tianxuan hurriedly stood up, laughed and said: "Friend Cimei, calm down, I am just a little surprised, how dare you wait for the price? Since Ziyang Guan is willing to give out Jin Yanling's mineral veins as compensation, then I, Tiansha Pavilion, can no longer
Protect that kid."
At this point, he paused for a moment, and then continued: "However, the matter of betraying our disciples is a bit ugly after all, and our Tiansha Pavilion should not make it too obvious. Let's do this, after ten days, I will give Di
Wu issued a mission and sent him to a remote valley. At that time, we will tell the Taoist friends the detailed location. As for how the Taoist friends will act, we at Tiansha Pavilion have no idea."
After hearing this, Master Cimei snorted coldly and said: "Okay, just follow your plan. I must see Di Wu in ten days!"
After that, he led a few disciples out of the hall, leaving only Master Tianxuan deep in thought.
Ten days later, Di Wu indeed received a mission from the sect, asking him to go to the Barren Rock Mountain in the northwest frontier to collect animal cores, and at the same time investigate the reason for the thin spiritual energy there.
This behavior of the sect is really unusual, as outer disciples receive sect missions every few months.
Although Di Wu's hands were useless and his strength was greatly reduced after he came back last time, Huangshi Mountain is a remote place. There are only some wild beasts on the mountain, which ordinary warriors can handle, so there is no danger at all.
Di Wu had no doubt about it, packed his luggage and set off immediately.
This was his first mission after joining the sect. Di Wu didn't want to delay, so he walked under the stars and covered the moon all the way, and it only took him five or six days to reach the Barren Stone Mountain.
After resting on the roadside for a night, he went deep into the mountains early the next morning and began to hunt wild beasts in the mountains.
At noon, Di Wu passed through a narrow mountain road. The sun was shining brightly above his head, making it difficult for him to open his eyes.
Although he has embarked on the path of cultivation, he is only at the sixth level of Qi refining. He is just a mortal who knows some magic. His body is not much different from that of ordinary people, and he cannot withstand the scorching sun.
Just when Di Wu was about to find a place to rest, the tips of his ears suddenly twitched, and the vigilance he had developed over the years made him subconsciously step back.
And the moment he dodged backwards, a huge boulder fell from above his head, hitting exactly where he was standing.
"who?!"
Di Wu knew that there was a sneak attack, so he hurriedly activated the "Condensing Evil Technique" and at the same time sacrificed his only magical weapon, the "Soul-Eating Cone".
"Death!"
A loud shout came from the cliff.
Di Wu looked up and saw a masked man standing on the rock, making hand gestures and using earth spells. The surrounding rocks were floating and slamming towards him!
At the same time, the soil behind him exploded, and someone used the earth escape technique to approach him and pierce a spear into his back.
Di Wu was attacked from both sides and tried his best to avoid the rock attack. However, the man behind him pierced his shoulder blade with a spear, causing him to bleed profusely!
"Who are you? Why do you want to kill me?"
Di Wu shouted loudly while dealing with the two of them.
"Hey, you haven't even heard of our name as the 'Stone and Wind Shuangsha'? Then you didn't die unjustly!" The man on the rock laughed.
"Stone and wind evil?"
Di Wu frowned slightly. He had heard from fellow disciples of Tiansha Pavilion that there were two casual cultivators in the Qi refining stage nearby who specialized in robbing lone cultivators and robbing them of their treasures.
Unexpectedly, on my first mission, I would encounter the infamous "Stone and Wind Demons" in this barren rock mountain.
