Immortality and Cultivation: I Have Three Times the Lifespan

Chapter 31 Suppression Order

The bright moonlight fell, and the blinding flames at the entrance to Black Wind Pass completely dissipated.

"Waaah..."

A biting wind swept by, swirling up the last few wisps of grayish-white ashes on the ground, causing them to dissipate among the rocks.

In the distance, there were several charred marks, emanating faint fluctuations of intense spiritual energy.

The bloody battle not long ago, along with the corpses of the three evil spirits of Jiexiu Liuyun and the unfortunate day laborers, has been completely turned into nourishment for this desolate mountain wilderness, leaving no trace whatsoever.

At the same moment that the embers were completely scattered by the wind, dozens of miles away at the entrance of the Biyuehu Port Market, two slightly tired figures were passing through the majestic gatehouse built of huge bluestones.

It was Yang Changsheng and Wang Ergou.

The market gradually filled with the sounds of people, the aroma of spirit tea, the mellow fragrance of fermented wine, and the noisy bargaining among low-level cultivators.

It possesses a reassuring atmosphere reminiscent of the mortal world, and carries the prestigious reputation of the Foundation Establishment Immortal Clan, the Lu family. No one dares to fight or kill here; it is extremely safe.

"The port is still so bustling. I wish I could stay here forever."

Wang Ergou's tense nerves finally relaxed, and he let out a long breath, as if he wanted to expel all the terrifying moments of the attack at Black Wind Pass.

"Finally safe..."

Yang Changsheng's face also showed a hint of relaxation, but deep in his calm eyes, vigilance had not completely dissipated as he silently scanned the surrounding environment.

Shortly after the two figures merged into the crowd in the market, a streak of light streaked across the sky and hovered precisely above Black Wind Pass.

The light faded, revealing a graceful young woman.

She wore a light, flowing blue gauze dress that rippled like water, the hem of which fluttered slightly in the cold wind, outlining her exquisite and graceful curves.

Her long, flowing black hair cascaded down to her waist, further accentuating her exposed swan-like neck and the fair, jade-like skin of her slender wrists.

Her face was exquisite, as if it were carved from the finest jade, with beautiful eyebrows and eyes, a delicate nose and cherry lips, possessing a breathtaking beauty.

However, beneath this stunning beauty emanated a powerful magical aura far exceeding her youthful appearance, calm and reserved, yet carrying a hint of the aura of someone in a superior position.

It was Lu Qianxue, the most dazzling genius of the contemporary Lu family, who had established their foundation at Biyue Lake.

She had just returned from the distant immortal city after purchasing essential supplies for her family in a flying boat.

As she passed through this place, she noticed a faint yet intensely hot and chaotic spiritual energy fluctuation below.

Lu Qianxue hovered in the air, her delicate eyebrows slightly furrowed, her black hair fluttering in the wind, and the hem of her skirt billowing.

She didn't land, but slowly closed her eyes, which were as clear as a cold pool.

"Buzz!"

A vast amount of divine power, like an invisible tide, instantly spread from her as the center to the entire entrance area of ​​Black Wind Pass below.

His divine sense, like fine silk threads, gently brushed over every inch of scorched earth and every jagged rock, sensing the battlefield still filled with the stench of blood and the destructive aura of fire, which had not yet completely dissipated.

She could see that a fierce battle had broken out here not long ago.

The spiritual energy in this area is mixed, containing sharp metallic energy, icy cold energy, heavy earth spiritual energy, and several kinds of chaotic and malevolent residual magical energy.

However, the battle ended quickly, and the victor cleaned up the battlefield very thoroughly.

The other party took away everything of value, and even destroyed the corpse with a fire talisman. Their methods were swift and efficient, clearly indicating that they were an experienced person.

However, that's all.

Lu Qianxue scanned the area several times with her divine sense, and apart from confirming that a chaotic battle involving people around the mid-stage of Qi Refining had taken place here, with one side being completely wiped out and the other side leaving calmly, there were no other clues.

No artifact fragments were left to identify the individual, no unique marks of cultivation techniques were left, no special bloodline aura was left, and not even a complete footprint or a fragment of clothing was left behind.

The person who made the move was exceptionally cautious and experienced, with a meticulous mind, and was suspected to be a senior cultivator who had undergone tribulation.

"Hmph, a bunch of reckless rogue cultivators, daring to ambush and kill here, they really picked a 'good' place!"

Lu Qianxue opened her eyes, a hint of cold disdain and killing intent flashing in her clear blue eyes.

In the eyes of this genius cultivator from the Immortal Clan, the battles at the mid-stage of Qi Refining were like children playing around, and she didn't care about the outcome.

However, this place is only a few dozen miles away from the core industrial port of Bishui Lake.

Although there is no explicit prohibition against fighting outside the market, if the activities of robbers become too rampant, even to the point of daring to ambush and kill employees or rob customers at such close range, it will be considered a serious offense.

This is undoubtedly a slap in the face to the Lu family, and will also affect the reputation and stability of the market, thereby harming the family's interests.

"It seems that the recent turmoil has made some monsters and demons restless again," Lu Qianxue thought to herself.

She searched the area below again with her divine sense, and after confirming that there were no hidden threats or special remnants, she did not linger.

With a slight ripple of her long blue gauze dress, she steered her flying boat at breakneck speed, transforming into a streak of light even faster than when she arrived, heading straight towards the core area of ​​the Lu family's residence at Biyue Lake.

Upon returning to her family's residence, Lu Qianxue immediately summoned the elder in charge of the Enforcement Hall, a serious-looking cultivator at the ninth level of Qi Refining.

"Deacon Lu, on the way back, when we passed the entrance to Black Wind Pass, we found traces of a fierce battle between mid-stage Qi Refining cultivators. One side was completely wiped out, and the method of destroying the bodies was swift and efficient. It is suspected to be the work of a group of cultivator raiders."

Her voice was clear and cool, concise and to the point, very clean and efficient.

"This place is too close to the port and market. The robbers are so brazen that they may cause chaos and damage the prestige of the Lu family and the stability of the market."

Deacon Lu's expression hardened: "Miss Qianxue, rest assured, I will immediately inform the patrol team to increase manpower and conduct a six-month-long sweep of the area within eight hundred li around the port market, especially in areas such as Black Wind Pass, Rocky Beach, and Misty Forest where thieves frequently raid. We will eradicate these troublesome rats from their roots and restore peace to the trade route!"

He was extremely respectful, treating this stunningly beautiful young woman as if she were the head of the Lu family.

At just eighteen years old, he had reached the eighth level of Qi Refining perfection and possessed a spiritual root aptitude with equal sensitivity to metal and water. Without a doubt, he was capable of becoming the Foundation Establishment Ancestor of the clan, or even stepping onto the path of Core Formation.

The Lu family of Biyue Lake will definitely reach another peak in the future under her control; her orders are comparable to those of the patriarch.

"Yes, go ahead. Make a big commotion, so that some people know that the two thousand miles of territory around Azure Lake is the Lu family's domain!"

Lu Qianxue parted her red lips slightly and gave a calm order. Her beautiful eyes were like a cold, deep pool, and the murderous intent in her tone made Steward Lu's heart tighten. He quickly bowed and accepted the order.

Soon, a storm targeting the Jiexiu will break out around the Biyue Lake, causing bloodshed.

However, the source of this purge had absolutely no connection with Yang Changsheng and Wang Ergou, who had just returned safely.
