Chapter 110 Two Foundation Establishment Monsters
Chapter 110 Two Foundation Establishment Monsters
Wan Kuifu was already sweating profusely. He knew Xia Yuhui's character well; the man was narrow-minded and petty. If he offended him, he might be fine in the moment, but his businesses in Jinling County would be destroyed.
As a rogue cultivator, although he owns some property, his combat strength is actually weak. Even if he goes to stop them, he will only be driven away. Therefore, this matter must be handled properly.
“Yes, in that case, let’s go and confront him.” Xia Yuhui pondered for a moment and agreed.
Before long, about twenty breaths later, the two arrived at the Wanxianglou store at breakneck speed.
"Fellow Daoist Xia, please wait in the private room for a moment. I will capture that wicked creature immediately." After saying this, he turned and walked towards the accounting room at the back.
Not long after Xia Yuhui entered the cubicle, Wan Kuifu dragged Yan Hanyun into the room and slammed her heavily to the ground as soon as they were inside.
"You wretched child, hurry up and kowtow to Fellow Daoist Xia to apologize."
"Master, what does this mean? I don't think I've done anything wrong." Yan Hanyun looked bewildered, but still obeyed his master's orders and knelt down to kowtow.
"You still dare to argue? Do you think Fellow Daoist Xia is trying to deceive me? Tell me whether you colluded with the Cai family and the Chimu family to murder Fellow Daoist Xia. Confess the truth immediately."
"What? Master, this is absolutely not true. I have always followed your teachings and dared not get too close to those family cultivators. I have no deep relationship with them. This is definitely not my doing."
After Yan Hanyun tried to explain, he saw that his master ignored him, so he hurriedly turned to Xia Yuhui and pleaded, "Fellow Daoist Xia, oh no no... Senior Xia, please explain to my master that I, Yan Hanyun, have never done such a bad thing."
Seeing his expression, Xia Yuhui also looked suspicious. Judging from his appearance, there might really be something hidden in this matter.
Thinking of this, he tentatively asked, "Fellow Daoist Yan, when you went to ambush that group of evil cultivators that day, weren't you the one who notified the Cai family and the Chi Mu family who were lying in ambush behind you?"
"what?"
Yan Hanyun's eyes narrowed. He was no fool; given Xia Yuhui's current identity and his words, the matter must be true. Thinking of this, he repeatedly reviewed the ins and outs of the incident in his mind.
His eyes suddenly lit up, and he said, "That's right, that makes sense. I knew those two had been behaving strangely lately. It must be those two ungrateful bastards who betrayed me."
"Quickly tell Fellow Daoist Xia everything that happened," Wan Kuifu said hastily, seeing that things had taken a turn for the better.
"Indeed, Senior Xia, this matter was not done by me. It must have been my two followers. They have been trying to get rid of me lately. They must have revealed your whereabouts to the Cai family and the Akagi family."
"Oh, where are they now?" Xia Yuhui also recalled that there were indeed two cultivators beside Yan Hanyun when they were discussing important matters that day.
“Senior Xia, I left them in Jinling County. But rest assured, they are still in Jinling County. I have spent so many spirit stones on them, so naturally I will not let them go easily.”
"Fellow Daoist Xia, I will now travel with you to Jinling County. This was ultimately my disciple's fault, and I will apologize to you no matter what."
"Alright, let's set off then."
After saying this, Xia Yuhui and Wan Kuifu, along with Yan Hanyun, sped off towards Jinling County.
However, their journey was not without its challenges. They happened to run into Su Qingqian and Su Ruquan, who were also heading to Jinling County, at the entrance of the market.
“Fellow Daoist Xia, since you are also going to Jinling County, why don’t we travel together?” Su Qingqian said.
After a moment's thought, Xia Yuhui immediately agreed, and the five of them embarked on their journey together.
Midway through the journey, Xia Yuhui suddenly stopped without warning, turned around and looked coldly at Wan Kuifu, while his gaze also swept over the other two.
The three of them were somewhat bewildered by his actions and were about to ask him a question when...
Xia Yuhui suddenly turned around, leaped to a distance, and gathered some crimson lightning in his hand.
However, he did not act immediately, since he was still unsure whether the two demonic beasts were arranged by these people.
A few breaths later, these people also sensed that there were two Foundation Establishment demonic beasts in the distance, chasing after some cultivators and constantly rushing towards them.
Upon discovering the two demonic beasts, Su Qingqian and Su Ruquan immediately distanced themselves from Wan Kuifu, leaving Wan Kuifu and Yan Hanyun standing alone in the wind.
"Fellow Daoist Xia, please don't misunderstand. This was purely an accident. We will understand later." Wan Kuifu hurriedly explained. He knew that Xia Yuhui mistakenly thought this was a trap set specifically for him, but heaven and earth can bear witness that he did not do such a thing, nor did he have the ability to set up a trap for a ruthless person who could defeat Linggui Daoren.
Xia Yuhui nodded slightly, but then distanced himself from the others. Soon, the two demonic beasts stopped in their tracks, clearly having also noticed the four powerful human cultivators.
Xia Yuhui returned to the group and bowed to them, saying, "I apologize, fellow Daoists. I misunderstood you all. I have been a bit sensitive recently due to some events. I hope you will not take offense."
As the two demonic beasts drew closer, Xia Yuhui realized that they were not enslaved by humans, but were purely wild. They had obviously escaped from the Northern Frontier battlefield, indicating that the battle on the Northern Frontier battlefield was on the eve of a decisive battle.
After all, the fact that these two Foundation Establishment demon beasts were able to easily break through the blockade to get here clearly indicates that the battlefield is severely short of manpower.
The group had different thoughts, but they all kept quiet to save face for Xia Yuhui.
“I understand, fellow Daoists. These two demonic beasts escaped from the heavy blockade to this place, and they are now seriously injured. Moreover, their cultivation is comparable to ours. Why don’t we leave them here?” Su Ruquan suggested.
“Indeed, these two demonic beasts dared to run rampant on our human territory, slaughtering our human cultivators. If we do not kill them, it will be difficult to appease public anger,” Wan Kui Fu Yi said in a deep voice.
Xia Yuhui, however, knew perfectly well that none of the cultivators present cared about the life or death of these pursued cultivators; what they coveted were merely the two wounded demonic beasts.
"Fellow Daoist Xia, what do you think?" Su Qingqian asked Xia Yuhui.
Xia Yuhui pondered for a moment, then waved his right hand, summoning Mingyue, and ordered, "Search her soul."
Upon hearing this, Wan Kui Fu's expression changed drastically. He was about to speak to stop him, but was stopped by Xia Yuhui's gaze.
"Rest assured, Fellow Daoist Wan, this is not an evil technique and will not damage his foundation. It will only cause him some suffering, and I will make amends later."
A moment later, Yan Hanyun let out a bloodcurdling scream, but the sound only lasted for three or four breaths before it stopped abruptly.
Mingyue walked to Xia Yuhui's side and nodded slightly.
Wan Kuifu immediately used his magic to stabilize Yan Hanyun, preventing her from collapsing due to the intense pain.
"Fellow Daoist Yan, this matter was caused by you after all, so my actions were reasonable. This is compensation for you, but you still need to give me an explanation afterward." After saying this, Xia Yuhui tossed a storage bag to Wan Kuifu, which contained five hundred spirit stones.
Then, Xia Yuhui turned to the crowd and said, "Everyone, those two beasts are trying to escape. Let's act quickly. Fellow Daoist Wan and I will take care of the Green Turtle Beast, shall we?"
The three nodded in agreement, and then the four Foundation Establishment cultivators rushed toward the two demonic beasts together.
Xia Yuhui and Su Qingqian moved extremely fast and were the first to entangle the two demonic beasts.
"Boom!" A bolt of lightning struck down from the dark clouds in the sky, hitting the Azure Turtle Beast directly, but it did not cause it much damage. Instead, the Azure Turtle Beast was enraged and charged over, trying to bite Xia Yuhui.
