Chapter 897: Chapter 477: 8th Life: One-Hit Kill, Opening the Sea of Qi! (Part 2)
However, if something were to happen to an Outer Disciple, the Cyan Cloud Sect’s Law Enforcement Hall would certainly investigate thoroughly and would not easily let it go.
Thinking of this.
Steward Wang’s anger grew even stronger. He scanned the crowd, and his gaze fell on a handsome Servant Disciple, ordering him in an indisputable tone.
"In that case, come to my room tonight."
Upon hearing this, the Servant Disciple’s face immediately turned ashen, filled with icy despair.
...
"That dog Steward Wang is finally back?"
A hint of murderous intent flashed in Lu Yuan’s eyes.
Steward Wang had repeatedly made things difficult for him, and he was lustfully fixated on his body.
If this grudge is not avenged, his Dao heart would be shrouded, and his mind would not be clear!
"He is the Steward of the Artifact Refining Hall. If he were to disappear, it would definitely attract a strict investigation by the Law Enforcement Hall. This matter needs to be approached slowly, and must not be rushed."
Lu Yuan restrained his inner killing intent and continued practicing his fist techniques.
However, over the next month.
Besides practicing his fist techniques each day, he secretly observed the movements of Steward Wang.
Efforts do not disappoint those who are meticulous.
After patiently observing, Lu Yuan discovered that Steward Wang would join the Sect’s team every half month to go to Mianshui City to procure supplies.
Mianshui City is several hundred miles away from the Cyan Cloud Sect. Even for a Martial Artist in the Body Forging Realm, a round trip would take two to three days.
Moreover, the journey is winding and distant, with many steep mountains along the way, making it the perfect opportunity for murder and robbery!
"This Steward Wang is cautious and suspicious. It’s impossible for him to be unprepared on the road, but so what?"
"I have already reached the Ninth Layer of Body Refining Realm, only half a step away from entering the Spiritual Sea Realm. In the face of absolute power, no matter how cautious and careful he is, he is doomed to die this time!"
Lu Yuan said with a cold glint in his eyes.
The following deep night.
He evaded layers of surveillance and restrictions, quietly leaving the Cyan Cloud Sect from a secluded path in the back mountain.
A few days later.
Nightfall descended.
In a certain dense forest.
The caravan from the Cyan Cloud Sect set up camp, lighting several bonfires in the open space.
Seeing this, Lu Yuan, who was hiding in the distance, couldn’t help but frown slightly.
This caravan had over a hundred people, including several Martial Artists in the Body Forging Realm, and even two formidable Spiritual Sea Realm cultivators.
Trying to bypass them to attack Steward Wang was almost as difficult as ascending to the heavens.
However, after waiting for a moment, the situation suddenly took a turn.
"Elder Li, I’m going out for a breath of fresh air. I’ll be back shortly."
Steward Wang’s voice was coy, holding a pale-faced Servant Disciple.
"The wilderness at night is not very safe. Be careful yourself."
The Elder, accustomed to this, just gave a warning and paid no more attention.
"Thank you, Elder Li."
A hint of joy flashed across Steward Wang’s face as he dragged the Servant Disciple into a small grove not far away.
When Lu Yuan arrived, he found the disciple had already been knocked unconscious.
Only Steward Wang remained standing there, looking refreshed.
"Who is it?"
At this moment.
He suddenly sensed something unusual, and abruptly turned his head.
But what responded to him was an extremely sharp glint, slicing through the dark night.
Before he even saw the figure, Steward Wang felt his neck turn cold, followed by the warm spurt of blood.
Then his head separated from his neck, rolling to the ground with eyes wide open, dying with everlasting regret!
Almost at the moment Steward Wang was beheaded.
Lu Yuan clearly sensed that the two powerful presences not far away had noticed something wrong and were quickly approaching.
A single slash, and then immediate escape.
Before those two powerful presences could approach, Lu Yuan activated the Illusionary Step, disappearing like a phantom into the night.
It all happened in the blink of an eye.
By the time the two Spiritual Sea Realm experts arrived at the scene, all they saw was the unconscious Servant Disciple and the headless corpse of Steward Wang.
The next morning.
The news of Steward Wang’s death spread back to the Sect, causing quite a stir in the Artifact Refining Hall.
When Elder Sun Xiao learned of this, he was furiously angry on the spot, demanding the Law Enforcement Hall to thoroughly investigate.
However, the perpetrator was clearly well-prepared, disappearing without a trace after the fatal strike, leaving no evidence behind.
Moreover, Steward Wang had long turned the Artifact Refining Hall into a chaotic mess, already provoking public anger.
After the Law Enforcement Hall’s fruitless investigation, the matter could only be left unresolved.
Meanwhile.
Lu Yuan had successfully resolved this grudge, feeling his thoughts clear and heart uplifted, even his cultivation improved significantly.
"Cultivators value settling grievances promptly. If one cannot avenge when bullied, what’s the point of cultivating or practicing martial arts?"
Feeling the changes in his own power, Lu Yuan pondered with a deeper understanding.
Unlike other cultivators who abandon emotions and desires, striving solely for immortality.
The reason Lu Yuan cultivates is for justice and freedom.
If the heavens want to destroy me, I will defy the heavens.
If the earth wants to bury me, I will split the ground.
If people want to bully me, I will kill until no one dares to oppose me!
So as long as someone dares to touch his baseline, no matter how great their background or status, they shall inevitably face their doom!
"My thoughts are clear, Body Refining is perfect, time to break through to the Spiritual Sea Realm."
Lu Yuan exhaled a long breath, feeling unprecedentedly relaxed and joyful.
Taking advantage of this opportunity.
He positioned himself, once again practicing the Vajra Fist.
Buddhist Vajra must hold the heart of a Bodhisattva, yet unleash thunderous methods.
After killing Steward Wang.
His gestures carried even more the flavor of the Vajra subduing demons.
