Chapter 172: Killing Li Changge

Qin Yang returned to Nan Cheng, clearly sensing that something was off.

That old coot wouldn't be desperate, would he?

He muttered to himself.

After sending Su Nuan Yue home, Qin Yang went straight to Place: Baiyun Guan.

His heart sank suddenly.

Because, there was no trace of Baiyun Lao Dao's aura inside Place: Baiyun Guan.

This indicates a problem: he might have left.

Where did he go?

Qin Yang didn't know.

But one thing was certain: it was definitely not what he wanted to see.

"Senior Brother, what's wrong?"

Seeing Qin Yang emerge with a grim expression, Liu Min ran over and asked curiously.

Qin Yang said calmly, "The master isn't in the room."

Liu Min laughed and said, "What's the big deal? The master often goes out wandering; you, Senior Brother, aren't unaware of that."

Qin Yang said nothing.

This made Liu Min's heart sink, giving him a bad premonition.

"Senior Brother, is something wrong?"

Glancing at Liu Min, Qin Yang shook his head and said, "It's fine, you don't need to worry; the master won't have any trouble—I'm just thinking about something else."

Liu Min eyed Qin Yang suspiciously, thinking he wouldn't be trying to fool him, would he?

Still thinking about something else? He can't be trusted at all.

Mainly, Qin Yang's expression just now was truly terrifying, giving him a bad feeling.

"Senior Brother, if there really is something, tell the fellow disciples; we'll bear it together."

Liu Min said in a low voice.

"Get out of my way, I'm still here—do you want me to carry your crap? Train properly, don't embarrass me; not even one of you has reached the God Transformation realm, and you're embarrassing yourselves?"

Qin Yang said angrily.

Liu Min gave a wry smile; he was only at Nascent Soul now.

The God Transformation realm—who knows how long it will take.

Not everyone can be a monster like my senior brother, reaching such a high realm at such a young age.

"Is the master really alright?"

Liu Min asked.

"It's fine; you don't need to overthink, just do your own thing."

Qin Yang said calmly.

Only then did Liu Min leave.

However, he keenly sensed that something was off.

At that moment, Nuan Yue returned.

Her expression solemn, she told Qin Yang, "Just now I received a voice transmission from my grand-uncle ancestor; it seems he's going to do something, and he asked me to deliver a message to the grandmaster, telling her that if she encounters any difficulties, she should come find you."

Nuan Yue said.

Qin Yang was speechless.

My master really is carefree—just leaving without a word, and even causing me all this trouble.

He rubbed his forehead and weakly nodded: "Mm, go ahead and send the message back; tell your grand-ancestor that if there's any problem you can't solve, just come find me."

Nuan Yue looked at Qin Yang, somewhat shocked.

Just how strong is his power?

He could actually help my grand-ancestor?

But even my grand-uncle ancestor said that, showing Qin Yang is truly formidable.

"After I go back to deliver the message, can I come back again?"

Nuan Yue wore an expectant expression.

"That's your freedom; naturally it's up to you."

Qin Yang laughed.

He didn't think he could decide others' freedom.

"Great!" Nuan Yue said excitedly.

Qin Yang looked at her, somewhat strangely.

"Why are you so excited?"

"I have gained insight into the Dao in the mortal world, learned many things, which is greatly beneficial to my cultivation—first enter the world, then transcend it."

Nuan Yue said seriously.

Qin Yang also knew this; Buddhism emphasizes enlightening the mind through sudden awakening.

Daoism is about comprehending heaven and earth, while also cultivating one's own Dao-heart.

Though their paths differ, they ultimately lead to the same goal.

Buddhism is essentially the Dao.

"Then let's part here."

Nuan Yue spoke.

She left here and hurried back to the Putuo Sacred Land.

Qin Yang let out a sigh and escorted her in secret.

Sure enough, just as Yue Rou had just left Nan Cheng, someone was already preparing to strike.

However, the opponent was intercepted by Qin Yang.

"Baiyun Lao Dao's disciple?"

The other stared at Qin Yang, cold light flashing in his eyes.

Qin Yang nodded, confirming the other's guess.

"Last time you used Song Tiansi's authority to kill many disciples of the Tianmo Men, and since we meet today, you need not return; today I will kill you first, so that Baiyun Lao Dao can taste what it means for a white‑haired person to send a black‑haired person."

The other opened his mouth, his tone brimming with strong confidence.

He looked as if he had already decided Qin Yang's fate, completely disregarding Qin Yang.

Qin Yang gave a faint smile and uttered two words.

"Shabi."

"Doesn't know life or death."

The other spoke, his expression cold.

He launched a true essence blast outward, aiming to take down Qin Yang.

In Li Changge's view, no matter how powerful Qin Yang is, he can only sustain up to a Nascent Soul or a Transforming Spirit before dying.

After all, that's his age.

Even as a senior elder of the Tianmo Men, he still cannot kill a disciple of Baiyun Lao Dao.

Qin Yang sneered and slapped forward.

He used no technique, just a fierce collision of force.

Boom—

With a deafening blast, Li Changge was hurled away.

He spat Xiānxiě, his face Hàirán as he stared at Qin Yang.

What cultivation level does the other have? He managed to grievously wound me with a single strike.

"Not dead? Then add a bit more power."

Qin Yang is in a bad mood now; he really wants to kill.

Li Changge conveniently walked right into his hands.

Killing intent from Qin Yang enveloped Li Changge, ready to strike.

Li Changge was instantly chilled; he immediately realized he had underestimated Qin Yang, whose strength was terrifying.

Although he didn't know what level he had reached, it seemed he was stronger than himself.

Boom—

Qin Yang directly Dòngshǒu, a flash of blade appeared, slashing through the heavens and earth.

The dazzling blade light, like a divine rainbow, split the heavens and earth, falling toward Li Changge.

A terrifying aura locked onto Li Changge, rendering him immobile.

Li Changge smelled the breath of death.

He knew clearly that he couldn't withstand this strike; a blade flash fell, and his death was certain.

Playing big.

He thought silently to himself.

Now Hòuhuǐ, it's already too late.

Puff—

The blade flash fell, and Li Changge was crushed outright.

Within Tianmo Men zhong, a figure rose tall, its terrifying gaze fixed on this direction.

Li Changge died; a senior elder of the Tianmo Men was slain.

Ouyang Zhan realized this; he was saturated with terrifying killing intent, and from a great distance locked onto Qin Yang's position, a forceful aura, intending to crush Qin Yang.

"Useless, come fight me, watch me kill you."

Qin Yang said coldly.

He sensed the other's aura, his own aura, and tangled with it.

At the same time, Qin Yang prepared to rise and charge toward the Tianmo Men.

Almost simultaneously, Ouyang Zhan withdrew his breath.

Only then did Qin Yang halt his movement.

His gaze was slightly cold, and he did not continue forward.

"It's not Baiyun Lao Dao, but a young man; could he be his disciple?"

Ouyang Zhan inhaled a gasp of cold air.

"Are all of Baiyun Lao Dao's disciples this powerful?"

Even though he was confident in himself and thought he could take down Qin Yang, once Baiyun Lao Dao were roused, it would be a disaster for his Tianmo Men.

"That useless Li Changge, how did he end up facing that guy's disciple and get slain by the other, truly both stupid and useless."

Ouyang Zhan thought silently.

After eliminating Li Changge, Qin Yang's mood also calmed a bit.

He did not continue to kill toward the Tianmo Men, but turned and went back.
