Chapter 65 The Zheng Family is Doomed
"Where is Changyang?"
"Changyang is gone."
"He's always quick to report things."
The Taoist Qingyang sat cross-legged on a futon, his white robes fluttering, exuding an air of otherworldly elegance.
He looked young and didn't resemble the senior cultivator at all.
He seemed more like a rich young master.
The cultivator below dared not be disrespectful in the slightest and whispered, "He left quickly, but we were the ones who suffered the consequences."
"Zheng Tiansheng is dead, he died in Dade. The Zheng family believes we were the ones who did it."
"Were they the ones handling the things outside the market?"
Qingyang Daoist frowned.
As soon as he finished speaking, the blue flames embroidered on his clothes burned brightly.
This is a magical artifact, personally crafted by Daoist Changyang, yet it can change according to emotional fluctuations.
"They are very well hidden."
Master Wu lowered his head even further.
"I sent people to follow them, and they chased them for a hundred miles. It was the Zheng family who gave them the spirit stones; they are retaliating."
The Taoist Qingyang showed neither joy nor sorrow, picked up his whisk, and silently recited a scripture.
After a long while, Master Wu heard a voice.
"The Zheng family is doomed."
"Go investigate. I need all the information about the Zheng family. The spiritual essence of Pingyang will be conceived next year. At that time, it will be the perfect time to bring Pingyang under our control."
"I understand."
Master Wu was greatly alarmed and quickly bowed.
Qingyang Daoist never asked whether Zheng Tiansheng's death was caused by his subordinates.
He doesn't care.
Even at the half-step foundation stage, there is still a gap.
One supernatural power leads to half a step, two supernatural powers cultivate the Dharma form, and three supernatural powers forge the foundation of the Dao.
Zheng Zhizhuo cultivated a supernatural power, which enabled the Zheng family to become the dominant force in Pingyang Market.
But in front of Qingyang Daoist, Zheng Zhizhuo was like a clown jumping around.
Because he is about to master two supernatural powers.
Once he has completed his cultivation, he will be invincible within the realm of great virtue.
As for Zheng Zhizhuo, he could be killed with a single hand.
Master Wu carefully left the cave.
He knew that Daoist Qingyang wanted to establish the Defenders Alliance, gather all the resources of the Great Virtue Sect, and break through to the Foundation Establishment stage.
Now, what we need is an opportunity to establish our authority.
The Zheng family just happened to come to their doorstep.
He was also happy, even though the market had been robbed and many people had been killed recently.
I thought I would be blamed by Daoist Qingyang, but now it seems I can actually make a fortune from the Zheng family.
For Daoist Qingyang to utter such words, his cultivation must have broken through again.
As a loyal dog of Qingyang Daoist, he was equally honored.
Once Qingyang Daoist kills Zheng Zhizhuo and subdues the Pingyang Spiritual Vein, he might even be able to take on both major spiritual veins at once.
……
Some are happy, some are sad.
Changyang Daoist hurriedly fled towards Dade in his flying shuttle.
"This is outrageous! Who actually killed Zheng Tiansheng? Isn't this just making an enemy for me for nothing?"
Changyang Daoist slapped his thigh, picked up his gourd, and drank the spiritual wine.
He didn't seem too worried.
With Zheng Tiansheng dead, only an old man and a young man remain in the later stages of the Zheng family's cultivation. Zheng Zhizhuo will surely take revenge on him like a madman.
However, he learned his lesson this time and escaped quickly.
Even Qingyang Daoist didn't know he had run away.
"And that damned Defenders Alliance, what kind of resistance against the demonic path is it? They're clearly just trying to make me work for them for free."
Master Changyang sighed.
"Luckily I escaped quickly, otherwise, if the Demonic Sect had invaded, I might have become cannon fodder for Qingyang along with them."
As he spoke, Changyang Daoist looked relieved and took another swig of wine.
The strength of the rogue cultivators of the Great Zhao Dynasty far surpassed that of the Great Virtue Sect, yet they were still beaten so badly by the Demonic Sect.
Now that the Great Zhao is about to perish, the Great De will probably follow in its footsteps sooner or later.
"Qingyang thinks that once he reaches the Foundation Establishment stage, he can contend with the Demonic Sect. Leaving aside whether he can actually succeed in reaching the Foundation Establishment stage, even if he could, doesn't the Yunxia Sect have no Foundation Establishment cultivators?"
Changyang's gaze was far-reaching; he looked in the direction of Yunxia Sect, his drunkenness lessening somewhat.
It's clear to anyone with eyes to see that this invasion by the Demonic Sect will inevitably lead to a deeper power struggle.
Dade, Dazhao, and Daye are all territories belonging to the Yunxia Sect.
However, the Yunxia Sect remained unmoved in its Foundation Establishment efforts, allowing the Qingchi Demonic Sect to conquer and seize most of Dazhao.
The Taoist Qingyang attempted to achieve Foundation Establishment, transforming himself from a pawn into a player, and even promised to protect him.
But this time, the invasion by the demonic forces is far too complicated.
Changyang had no intention of staying in Dade any longer, even without Zheng Tiansheng's incident.
After Qingyang Daoren founded the Weidao Alliance, he also planned to escape.
"Immortality is difficult, immortality is difficult, enjoy life more, then you will find peace. There is no time to ride the wind and break the waves, but enjoying life in the world will bring you peace..."
The shuttle flew away in the direction east of Dade.
The Taoist priest Changyang sang and chanted.
He was heading towards the direction of the Great Jing Kingdom, which was located on the coast of the East Sea and was the easternmost kingdom under the rule of the Yunxia Sect.
It is also the last place that the Demonic Sect can reach.
