Chapter 330: Investigation

A moment later.

Lv Tongtian came back to his senses and looked to the side.

He discovered that the one man and four women beside him had already vanished.

His brows furrowed tightly.

"A mere four female cultivators at the Nascent Soul Early Stage have actually occupied the top four spots of the Desolate Ranking, even pushing the Emperor down."

"They must have obtained some significant fortuitous encounter; otherwise, with their strength, it would be absolutely impossible for them to reach this height."

He did not believe that Mu Lingxi and the others had reached the top four of the Desolate Ranking by their own strength.

They were merely Nascent Soul Early Stage cultivators; they absolutely did not possess this strength.

Over these years, it has not been rare for ordinary cultivators to briefly ascend the Desolate Ranking due to a burst of luck.

He figured they were the same.

It was just that their fortuitous encounter was greater, actually allowing them to reach the top of the Desolate Ranking in one go.

Besides Desolate Qi, they might have obtained other fortuitous encounters as well.

If he could obtain them, wouldn't he be gaining both beauties and fortuitous encounters, achieving multiple goals at once?

Thinking of this.

A smile curled at the corners of his mouth.

He immediately flew into the air and pursued forward.

However, along the way, he did not discover the traces of the five people again.

"Forget it, there will be plenty of opportunities to get them later; the most urgent matter is to find the person who helped Qingcheng heal her injuries."

He shook his head and returned toward the Central Plaza.

The Central Plaza is one of the liveliest places in Desolate City.

It is most convenient to inquire about information there.

He first made inquiries at the Central Plaza, then followed up with visits and guesses based on the clues he gathered.

Finally.

He locked his target onto one person.

Wang Jianqiang, one of the three Gold Seal Alchemists of Desolate City!

According to the information he gathered, Qingcheng had once sought pills from the other two Gold Seal Alchemists besides Wang Jianqiang.

But she had returned in disappointment each time.

Although no one confirmed it was definitely Wang Jianqiang who helped Qingcheng refine the pill.

But Qingcheng had been very close to Wang Jianqiang in recent years, and her injuries had healed only after she met Wang Jianqiang.

In this way.

The truth was self-evident.

What made Lv Tongtian feel surprised was.

After he had someone draw a portrait of Wang Jianqiang.

He discovered that Wang Jianqiang was precisely the man among the one man and four women he had encountered in the Central Plaza that day!

"This saves me some trouble."

After having this discovery, Lv Tongtian smiled.

In this way, while killing Wang Jianqiang, he could also conveniently make a move on those women by his side, which could be considered killing multiple birds with one stone.

Afterward, he went directly to the Central Plaza, hid in a corner, and lay in wait.

He attempted to wait for Wang Jianqiang and the others to enter the Desolate Realm again, then tail them inside and kill them in one fell swoop.

However, what he did not expect was.

This wait was unexpectedly long.

Wang Jianqiang and Mu Lingxi and the others had just returned to their residence.

Tushan Youyou and Qingcheng hurriedly found him and told Wang Jianqiang about the matter regarding Lv Tongtian.

A Special Constitution that can devour the origin of a Spirit Body to strengthen itself?

This guy actually has some tricks.

After listening to Qingcheng's account, Wang Jianqiang said to Qingcheng, "Fairy Qingcheng, could you describe the appearance of that Lv Tongtian for me?"

"Naturally, I can." Qingcheng nodded, flicked her finger, and a burst of Spiritual Power exploded, transforming into the appearance of a man.

"This person is Lv Tongtian?"

Seeing the man's appearance, Wang Jianqiang could not help but reveal a look of surprise.

Isn't this the foolish-looking guy who was not far from them when they were teleported out from the Desolate Realm Stele?

Mu Lingxi, Wang Yu Yao, Su Yutong, and Xing Li also revealed looks of astonishment.

Noticing the expressions of the five, Qingcheng was startled, "What? You haven't already met him, have you?"

"We have indeed already met him." Wang Jianqiang smiled, "We just saw him at the Central Plaza."

"He has already returned to Desolate City..."

Hearing Wang Jianqiang's words, Qingcheng's expression turned grave.

She looked at Wang Jianqiang, and seeing that Wang Jianqiang's expression was relaxed without the slightest sense of urgency, she could not help but remind him.

"Daoist Friend Wang, Qingcheng knows that your strength is very high."

"But this person Lv Tongtian not only has a powerful constitution, but his cultivation has also reached the Nascent Soul Stage Perfection; his strength is not necessarily weaker than yours, so you must absolutely not be careless."

Hearing Qingcheng's grave tone, Wang Jianqiang laughed, "Many thanks for the reminder, Fairy Qingcheng, Wang has it under control."

Qingcheng pondered for a moment and continued, "Many people know about my contact with Daoist Friend Wang. If that Lv Tongtian investigates carefully, he will surely be able to easily guess that the recovery of my injuries is related to Daoist Friend Wang."

"Given his personality, he certainly won't let you off."

Speaking up to this point, Qingcheng's voice paused, and a look of inquiry appeared on her face.

"Leaving such a person to eye us covetously is ultimately not a solution. How does Daoist Friend Wang intend to handle it? Should we find an opportunity to attack him together in a group, or...?"

Wang Jianqiang smiled and shook his head, "I have already devised a countermeasure. Qingcheng Fairy may rest assured; for now, we need not pay him any mind, let him jump about as he pleases."

"When the time is ripe, I will naturally make him realize his mistake."

Qingcheng opened her mouth, but seeing that Wang Jianqiang had no intention of continuing the discussion, she could only temporarily suppress the matter in her heart.

Afterwards, Mu Lingxi, Wang Yu Yao, Su Yutong, and Xing Li each returned to their rooms to rest.

Over these past three years, they had followed Wang Jianqiang to roam through various forbidden lands, always maintaining a high-intensity state of combat.

Now, their spirits were already very exhausted and they were in urgent need of rest.

As for Wang Jianqiang, although he was also very exhausted, his condition was significantly better than the four of them.

Not long after the four returned to their rooms, Youyou also went back to practice.

As for Qingcheng, she also stayed here temporarily.

After Wang Jianqiang arranged a room for her.

He himself returned to the Cultivation Room and began to practice.
