Chapter 648

Xiao Shiyilang was greatly shocked and once again flung himself forward without a care for anything.

Fazhi gave a faint smile, took the Cut-Deer Blade from Xiao Pei's hand, then flicked it through the air toward Xiao Shiyilang.

Xiao Shiyilang had come in a fierce rush, yet with that single air-borne flick, he felt every vital acupoint on his body sealed shut.

Then his true Qi stalled, and his whole body dropped straight down to the ground.

"General Bai, I'll leave them to you!"

After doing all this, Fazhi directly tossed the Cut-Deer Blade to Bai Qi, then his figure flashed and he vanished on the spot.

Bai Qi took the Cut-Deer Blade, overjoyed, and immediately ordered the Qin Ruishi to bind Xiao Pei and his son and tie them onto a horse.

"No! You can't take Xiao Shiyilang away, you're going against the Qing..."

Feng Siniang grew anxious, preparing once again to bring out the name of the Qinglong Society.

But Bai Qi had long been prepared; before she could finish speaking, he casually pointed a finger and sealed both Feng Siniang and Shen Bijun right there on the spot,

"Little Miss, these acupoints will unseal themselves in one hour. Great Qin has no intention of making an enemy of the Qinglong Society. Farewell!"

After saying this, he leapt onto his horse, cracked his whip, and together with the Qin Ruishi, took Xiao Shiyilang and Xiao Pei and headed back toward Great Qin.

In fact, everything Great Qin had done was about competing with the Qinglong Society.

But the polite words still had to be said.

Watching Bai Qi and the others depart, Feng Siniang was so anxious that tears were about to fall.

After a long while, Feng Siniang finally felt her acupoints gradually loosen.

She immediately circulated her true Qi and unlocked the acupoints.

Then she unlocked Shen Bijun's acupoints as well.

"Siniang, what are we going to do now!"

They had escaped the doll-like Shanzhuang that was like a cage, yet Xiao Shiyilang had been taken away right before her eyes.

Lian Chengbi is no Bu Liang Ren, and Shen Family Fortress had already been swallowed up by Wugou Shanzhuang.

For a moment, though the world was vast, Shen Bijun did not know where she should go.

"Bijun, you find a place to stay first, I'll go find the Hall Master of the Eleventh Month."

Clenching her teeth, Feng Siniang prepared to stake everything.

She would ask the Qinglong Society to step in and rescue Xiao Shiyilang for her.

After all, this time Fazhi—one of the Qinglong Society's guest retainers—had suddenly acted as if he had betrayed them.

Feng Siniang felt this was something that also needed to be reported back immediately.

"This... alright then!"

Shen Bijun was helpless; she was not a member of the Qinglong Society, and with nowhere left to shelter her, she could only agree to Feng Siniang's words.

Feng Siniang took some silver from her bosom, pressed it into Shen Bijun's hands, then hurried off toward the east.

There lay one of the Qinglong Society's strongholds.

After Feng Siniang departed, Shen Bijun sighed and began to ponder where she should go.

"Miss, this is the Carefree Grotto, isn't it?"

Just as Shen Bijun was thinking, a familiar voice suddenly rang out.

Shen Bijun's heart tightened, and only then did she realize she had been thinking too deeply and had forgotten this was the Carefree Grotto.

She raised her head and looked toward the sound, and discovered it was actually Lian Chengbi, who had brought a group of bizarrely dressed martial artists and surrounded this desolate valley tightly.

"Lian Chengbi, what do you want..."

Shen Bijun was greatly alarmed and immediately covered her body, retreating step by step.

Has this Lian Chengbi gone mad?

Clearly, for some unknown reason, he had already taken control of the Carefree Grotto.

Yet right in front of her, he asked whether this was the Carefree Grotto.

Could he be trying to toy with her?

"Lian Chengbi?"

That person murmured, exchanged a smile with a beautiful woman beside him,

"It seems this beautiful Young Lady has mistaken me for that impostor!"

"An impostor deserves to die! Chengzhi, let me go kill him!"

That beautiful woman's face was icy cold; clearly she was extremely angry that this person had been mistaken for someone else.

"No rush, no rush!"

That person shook his head, then looked at Shen Bijun again,

"Hello! My name is Lian Chengzhi, not Lian Chengbi.

It's just that this fellow Lian Chengbi has taken my place.

Now that I'm free, I've come specially to take back everything that belongs to me!"

This person was actually You Dongying, the Heavenly Locust of the Eastern Seas!

When the Heavenly Dao Golden List introduced him, it had already stated that he was a descendant of the Lian family.

Unexpectedly, he was already the esteemed Heavenly Locust of the Eastern Seas, a hegemon of a faction.

Yet he had still returned to Great Song to take back Lian Family Fortress!

Shen Bijun had naturally also read the Heavenly Dao Golden List and knew exactly who this Lian Chengzhi before her eyes was.

In her heart, she also found it extremely strange.

Could the Heavenly Locust of the Eastern Seas really be no match for a mere Wugou Shanzhuang?

457 Lian Chengzhi's biological brother?

"This is indeed the Joyful Cave, and Lian Chengbi is truly inside!"

Shen Bijun deeply abhorred Lian Chengbi for poisoning Shen Lao's grandmother at the appointed hour.

Unfortunately, her cultivation was weak, and her only ally, Xiao Shiyilang, had been captured by Bai Qi.

Using Lian Chengzhi to confront Lian Chengbi would be quite advantageous!

"Excellent! Thank you for your answer, Xue'er. Stay outside and wait well—I'll go find Lian Chengbi!"

Lian Chengzhi's arrival here clearly wasn't merely to reclaim everything of the Shanzhuang.

Otherwise, he would have gone to Lian Family Fortress, not the Joyful Cave.

After giving instructions to Chi Xue, Lian Chengzhi went alone to the location of the Joyful Cave, punched a large hole into the mountainside with one fist, and walked in boldly.

Lian Chengzhi was listed on the Nine Continents Heavenly Dao Combat Power Apex Chart.

It was no surprise that he could smash open this ordinary barren mountain with a single punch.

After entering the Joyful Cave, he smelled a strong stench of blood.

He proceeded onward until he reached the hall where three hundred Joyful Cave disciples had once been slaughtered by Guihai Yidao.

Seeing the ground littered with corpses, he examined the scene carefully.

"Huh! This is Sweet Death Annihilation! The First Calamity of the Evil King—could it be that Guihai Yidao has come here?"

Lian Chengzhi had naturally seen the power of the First Calamity of the Evil King.

Otherwise, he would not have taken Guihai Yidao in nor entrusted him with the remnants of the Wu Shen Jue Palace.

But in his eyes, Guihai Yidao was merely a worthless fool who relied solely on his divine weapon.

Perhaps the Tenth Calamity of the Evil King was immensely powerful, but so what? It was not his own strength after all.

Now that Guihai Yidao had suddenly appeared, his heart tightened—could Guihai Yidao's goal be the same as his own?

He immediately activated his mental sense, spreading it like a spiderweb in all directions.

The next moment, he heard faint moaning coming from a distant stone hall.

Lian Chengzhi did not delay; he moved instantly to that stone hall.

There he discovered two pitiful figures, their limbs all severed, resembling human piglets.

One was older, the other younger.

Blood continuously oozed from the stumps of their limbs.

Though they groaned incessantly, they were barely breathing in and exhaling out.

"Lian Chengbi?"

Before coming to find Lian Chengbi, Lian Chengzhi had already ordered the You Dongying intelligence network to gather all available information on Lian Chengbi.

Thus, upon seeing the figure here, he immediately recognized the one dressed in red clothing as Lian Chengbi.
