Corpse Burier: I Can Nourish Corpse

Chapter 783: Chapter 375: Situations on All Sides, Eight Directions Treasure Gathering Trading House

”We have just established our foundation, and our reputation has just spread, so why did this happen all of a sudden?”

”This was clearly a matter of time. Didn’t you see how fiercely the Demon Dao fought in the Divine Fall Mountain Range?”

Listening to everyone’s concerns, Fang Qian’s gaze fell on Ye Chen, Eastern Celestial City, and the others.

Compared to these powerful Foundation Establishment Perfection cultivators and Fake Pill Cultivators, he also wanted to hear the opinions of Ye Chen and others.

After all, they were sent by that senior.

On the surface, the Lu Family is the backing of the Eight Directions Treasure Gathering Trading House, but only they know the real backing.

Now it can be confirmed that the Lu Family has indeed undergone drastic changes, and it won’t be long before the west of the West Mountain Floating Domain will be the same. At this time, the Lu Family certainly can’t take care of them, let alone manage them.

So he wanted to hear what Ye Chen and the others thought.

Perhaps that senior had already given instructions, one can’t be sure.

However.

Ye Chen and others had nothing to say.

It was obvious.

That senior left no instructions.

”Then let’s leave it for now and observe for a while before we make any plans,” Fang Qian knew that continuing to discuss was useless. He had to use the Communication Stone to consult that senior.

Everyone gradually rose. The aging Tier Three Talisman Master sighed as he stood, ”I just wanted to find a place to retire, why is it so hard? The Lu Family was clearly at its peak, poised to become the number one power in the west, yet a sudden change occurred... Without the Lu Family Corpse Ancestor, the Lu Family, even with Lu Feng, probably won’t hold on for long.”

The few Fake Pill Cultivators beside him strongly agreed.

Why?

Because with the Lu Family Corpse Ancestor having had an incident, the first to change would inevitably be the Golden Core Cultivators sieging the Longteng Family.

Earlier, with the Lu Family Corpse Ancestor as a backing, they dared to do it, but without him, if they acted again, they would have no backbone or support. Although decaying, the Longteng Family is still stronger than horses; how could they continue to act?

Even if one wants to.

Who dares to lead the charge?

If you don’t dare, I don’t dare, in the end, no one dares.

In this way, the trouble for the Lu Family is conceivable; if the Longteng Family really retaliates, how can the Lu Family withstand it?

Rely on Qi Guang Sect?

But Qi Guang Sect is no longer what it used to be.

How can they help?

How do they help?

”No wonder the Lu Family appears to be preparing for a mass relocation; they’ve already started selling Tier Three Spiritual Veins.”

Another person expressed a sigh.

...

The news of Nangong Huan, Gu Qinghe, and the death of the Lu Family Corpse Ancestor also quickly spread to the ears of Qi Guang Sect cultivators.

The originally high-spirited cultivators, who were besieging the Longteng Family with many Golden Core influences, were utterly at a loss.

But more cultivators couldn’t believe it.

The Lu Family Corpse Ancestor was able to kill Longteng Liyi, his strength was unimaginable; how could he die in the Celestial Yin Mountain Range?

Though they didn’t believe it, numerous Golden Core influences have already halted their siege against the Longteng Family.

The Golden Core Cultivators of the Longteng Family, upon receiving this news, were overjoyed, ”Heaven has not forsaken my Longteng Family!”

How suffocated they were during the siege, how liberating it felt at this moment.

The Lu Family Corpse Ancestor was gone.

In the thinning Western Xishan Floating Domain, who can challenge the Longteng Family?

Who would dare be the pioneer in besieging the Longteng Family?

Not only did the Longteng Family feel relieved, but Qi Guang Sect’s former Third Elder Li Qingyan and Fourth Elder Lanshan Yue felt the same.

When the Lu Family Corpse Ancestor killed Longteng Liyi and Qi Guang Sect began their counteroffensive against the Longteng Family, they were as afraid then as they were at ease now.

”It seems that Fortune always stands by our side,” said Lanshan Yue, who immediately found Li Qingyan at Crescent Lake.

Li Qingyan also felt a sense of relief, ”With the Lu Family Corpse Ancestor dead, even if there are changes in the West Mountain Floating Domain next, you and I can retreat without fear of Qi Guang Sect and the Lu Family. On the contrary, the current Lu Family is essentially nothing before us, and so is Qi Guang Sect.”

”Exactly.”

Lanshan Yue laughed heartily.

Qi Guang Sect has only Lin Hai and Red Fire Zhenren, both in the Middle Stage of Golden Core. Although Red Fire Zhenren’s strength is above theirs, they also believe they are not much weaker than him. In a two-on-two situation, even if they can’t win, they can still retreat.

As for the Lu Family Ancestor, to be frank, without the Lu Family Corpse Ancestor, the Lu Family Ancestor is just an old man they could easily handle.

...

Meanwhile.

In the Secret Realm Cave Heaven of the Spiritless Death Land.

Upon receiving the news, Lin Hai had already rushed to the Secret Realm Cave Heaven of the Spiritless Death Land. Wen Jiu did not turn a blind eye, for Lin Hai, like Lu Feng and Lu Changyin, was already soul-bound and could know the truth.

Moreover, he needed Lin Hai to know the truth.

Only by knowing the truth could Lin Hai stabilize Qi Guang Sect, preventing too much chaos from arising due to the Lu Family.

However, unlike the Lu Family, Wen Jiu would not let Lin Hai take Qi Guang Sect and leave the west of the West Mountain Floating Domain.

Because he and Qi Guang Sect had always been just a transaction, he could help Qi Guang Sect but wouldn’t protect it.

”Do not spread this matter; just assume that the Lu Family Corpse Ancestor is truly dead, and as for the Longteng Family, for now, don’t worry about them.” Wen Jiu knew clearly that only by giving the Longteng Family a chance to breathe and jump around for a while could people believe that the Lu Family Corpse Ancestor was truly dead.

Lin Hai nodded and left the Secret Realm Cave Heaven relieved, though he did not understand why the Corpse Ancestor would fake his death, he believed there had to be a reason. Moreover, Nangong Huan and Gu Qinghe were dead too.

Things wouldn’t be minor.

After Lin Hai left, Wen Jiu also listened to Fang Qian’s communication and only replied with, ”Watch and observe.”

Wen Jiu initially planned to have the Eight Directions Treasure Gathering Trading House help earn cultivation resources, but the gains from the recent rate of progress were so massive that he won’t lack Spirit Stones for a long time to come.

Even if he did lack,

It’s likely no longer something the Eight Directions Treasure Gathering Trading House can currently provide.

Nonetheless, Wen Jiu still intended to keep the Eight Directions Treasure Gathering Trading House, as Ye Chen and his sister Wen Ya still needed a place to settle.

He was destined not to be able to take them forward, so he could only help them keep a place to live.

Moreover, on the surface, the Eight Directions Treasure Gathering Trading House showed no direct involvement with the Lu Family Corpse Ancestor, only with Lu Chan.

So it wasn’t necessary to leave with the Lu Family to play out such a scene.

On the contrary,

Only by the Lu Family abandoning the Eight Directions Treasure Gathering Trading House and leaving could this play seem real enough.

However, considering the current situation, Fang Qian was feeling very panicked, ”Senior, the current situation is becoming more severe, all those loose cultivators are fleeing eastward, and we...”

”Don’t worry about it; there are always those who can’t leave. Just focus on your business. If anything really happens, I will take action.” After comforting him, Wen Jiu stopped saying much more.

The Eight Directions Treasure Gathering Trading House only does intermediary business, which doesn’t involve the core interests of most Golden Core influences. Even without the Lu Family, generally speaking, Golden Core influences won’t trouble the Eight Directions Treasure Gathering Trading House.

If something does happen, at that point, it’s only necessary for the Formless Demon Corpse to disguise as a Golden Core Wanderer and step in.

An identity of Lower Golden Core is enough to protect the current Eight Directions Treasure Gathering Trading House.

After storing away the Communication Stone, Wen Jiu began to continue refining the Thousand-Li Soul-Sealing Extreme Resentful Corpse, while also checking on Pei Wuxing’s situation.

Pei Wuxing had been nurturing in the Yellow Springs Corpse Mother for quite some time, and his Golden Core injuries were healing rather quickly.

Once Pei Wuxing’s Golden Core fully recovers, he can go back to the Divine Fall Mountain Range to collect the True Spirit Divine Tree.

Now with Anchaosheng dead, the news of the East Splendor Divine Palace and the Celestial Splendor Treasure Pavilion teaming up with the West Mountain Floating Domain Lord’s Mansion to deal with the Outer Hidden Demon Sect is sure to spread throughout the Demon Sect, and what will happen then is uncertain.

Therefore, Wen Jiu decided to take the True Spirit Divine Tree before the cross-domain flying ship from Celestial Splendor Treasure Pavilion arrives.

Once this matter is settled, he can comfortably let East Spring Undying Bone leave the West Mountain Floating Domain to seek the Realm Breakthrough Tribulation Crossing Land.

And at this time,

The news of Mingyi from East Splendor Divine Palace and Celestial Splendor Treasure Pavilion’s Golden Core Perfection Cultivators teaming up with Nangong Huan against the Dark Altar lineage had already been spread back to the Outer Hidden Demon Sect and was spreading like wildfire within.

Considering that the contract between Celestial Splendor Treasure Pavilion and the Demon Dao had lasted for thousands of years, it was a surprise to many that it could be broken so abruptly.

Upon receiving this news, the usually elusive branch masters of the Outer Hidden Demon Sect gathered at the Lifeless Abyss in Boundless Celestial Demon Valley, entering the valley together as if to meet someone.
