Chapter 426: Chapter 291: Malevolent Star, Opportunity or Calamity?_2

Wang Cangyi’s body jerked violently, his already threadlike breath completely stopped, and the aura of life slowly dissipated.

“Master!”

Zhao Xiong’s eyes almost split with rage as he lunged towards Lu Qing.

But just as he lifted his head, a sword light had already filled his vision.

Swoosh!

Zhao Xiong’s towering body was cleaved into two by a single Sword Qi from Lu Qing.

Every Martial Artist in the Innate Realm shuddered deeply, chilled by Lu Qing’s ruthlessness.

Such intense killing intent in this youth, what sort of terrifying figure had they provoked this time!

Even the Heavenly Mechanism Tower Master was startled by Lu Qing’s decisive bloodletting.

He had heard from Zhi Rui that within Lu Qing lay an exceedingly heavy predisposition for killing, though he was somewhat incredulous.

After all, since he had been in touch with Lu Qing, the youth had always seemed quite amiable.

Now, witnessing Lu Qing dispatch three Innate Realm experts without batting an eye, he realized his Disciple’s words were true.

After slaying Zhao Xiong, Lu Qing’s gaze turned towards the remaining Supreme Elder from the Tiancang Sect.

Feeling the murderous intent in Lu Qing’s eyes, the Tiancang Sect’s Supreme Elder was immediately stricken with fear.

He hurriedly said, “Young Master, please see clearly, I was unaware of Wang Cangyi’s grievances with you; I have nothing to do with this matter!”

At this point, the Heavenly Mechanism Tower Master also spoke up, “Indeed, Young Master Lu, according to our Tianji Building’s investigation, the encirclement of the Wei Family back then was indeed a private decision made by Wang Cangyi.”

Only then did Lu Qing shift his gaze and slowly return to his original position, looking towards the remaining dozen or so experts in the Innate Realm.

“What now, do you all not wish to leave, or do you intend to have another go with me?”

Upon hearing this, the remaining experts in the Innate Realm felt as though they had received a great pardon.

“Thank you, Young Master, for not dwelling on the past!”

“We appreciate Young Master’s magnanimity!”

“We have caused enough disturbance; we will take our leave now!”

After a series of flatteries, the group of Innate Realm experts immediately employed their movement techniques and left the courtyard.

They moved so fast that they were even quicker than when they had arrived.

As for the three corpses, they were left untouched, abandoned right there.

“Young Master Lu, you were still too impulsive, slaying these three people. This will likely bring you no small amount of trouble in the future,” sighed the Heavenly Mechanism Tower Master.

“I had no choice, Tower Master. You wouldn’t let me slaughter them all,” Lu Qing said indifferently.

“Young Master Lu, please don’t misunderstand; it’s not that I insisted on stopping you. Amongst those who arrived just now were high-ranking members from seven or eight Major Sect Forces.

If you had killed them all, once their Sects stirred up trouble, the three Saint Masters would definitely intervene to seek justice.

Whatever the outcome, it would be very unfavorable for you,” explained the Tower Master.

Lu Qing fell silent.

He had considered this issue as well.

Killing more than a dozen Innate Realm experts in one fell swoop was certain to cause an uproar.

Given Holy Mountain’s usual stance, they would surely send someone to investigate.

While he was not overly concerned about the others, Lu Qing always harbored wariness towards the three enigmatic Saint Masters.

That was why at first, he did not immediately move to kill the others besides Wang Cangyi.

It was only when the diminutive Innate Realm expert threatened the life of Little Yan and the others that he truly felt the urge to commence a massacre, wishing to annihilate those people without regard for the consequences.

However, although it was easy to eradicate them, dealing with the aftermath would put them in great difficulty.

If Holy Mountain intervened, whether they could leave Central State without issue was indeed a problem.

After all, the three Saint Masters were profoundly enigmatic, and even bearing a Spiritual Artifact, Lu Qing could not confidently claim to be fearless.

Let alone the fact that the Qiankun Qi Bag, after being nurtured for so long, only had the strength for one strike.

Once used up, it would take quite some time to recover.

In the end, it all came down to his own lack of strength.

Reflecting on this, Lu Qing immediately paid his respects to the Heavenly Mechanism Tower Master.

“Thank you, Tower Master, for your guidance. I was indeed reckless in the matter just now.”

Seeing that Lu Qing was not angry, the Tower Master smiled.

“Fortunately, you were still able to restrain yourself, even though you killed three men.

But Wang Cangyi and his disciples already bore enmity with you, and this time they were the first to act against you. Killing them was merely a private grievance and indeed justified.

As for Leng Tao, although there will be some trouble, in the end, he was the one who threatened your family first. Even if it goes to Holy Mountain, it will likely only result in a matter of debate and should not greatly affect you.”

“So you need not worry too much, as things have not become unmanageable now.”

“Even if they petition to the Holy Mountain, it is highly probable that the three Saint Masters wouldn’t care either.”

Lu Qing nodded.

And he had some enlightenment.

It seemed that, apart from those matters that affected the overall situation, the Saint Masters generally would not pay attention to common vendettas and conflicts.

“By the way, elder Tower Master, just now from within the white vortex above the Holy Mountain came flying numerous streaks of light.

Among them, several fell into our hands. Do you know why this happened?”

Lu Qing presented the streak of light he was holding to the Heavenly Mechanism Tower Master.

He wasn’t worried that the Tower Master would harbor malicious intentions and snatch the Origin Energy.

Firstly, he didn’t sense any greed from the Tower Master.

Secondly, he had absolute confidence that unless it was a Peerless Martial Artist above the Innate Perfection, no one could easily snatch something from his hands.

As expected, the Heavenly Mechanism Tower Master showed a look of amazement upon seeing the light in Lu Qing’s hand, but no malicious intentions emerged.

He simply smiled and said, “What is called destiny is determined by the heavens. Since these lights have flown to you on their own, it seems that the will of the Heavenly Dao believes you are qualified to obtain this opportunity. It’s fate, Young Master, you needn’t worry.”

“I’ve noticed, elder, that within the Holy City, not only has light fallen here, but elsewhere too. I wonder, what has happened in those places? Has there been a struggle for them as well?” Lu Qing inquired.

A hint of sorrow showed in the Tower Master’s eyes: “Not to hide from Young Master Lu, I have just returned from outside. Your guess is correct; where the lights fell, indeed significant conflicts erupted, resulting in many deaths and injuries.”

Otherwise, he wouldn’t have returned so late and almost let Lu Qing go on a killing spree.

Lu Qing understood in his heart.

He wasn’t surprised by what the Tower Master said.

After all, even here, so many in the Innate Realm had appeared, how could no one try to seize the other lights?

Seeing the sorrow on the Tower Master’s face, Lu Qing knew this elder was a person who deeply cared for the fate of the world.

Seeing the many deaths and injuries in the city, his heart must be heavy now.

But he didn’t say anything.

With the Heavenly Mechanism Tower Master’s experience and wisdom, his understanding of the ways of the world was much deeper than Lu Qing’s.

It wasn’t Lu Qing’s place, as a young man, to be offering consolation.

He thought for a moment. The city was in chaos now, and it was uncertain what might happen next.

The priority at the moment was to enhance his own strength.

So he said to the Heavenly Mechanism Tower Master, “Elder Tower Master, now my teacher and I have fortuitously obtained an opportunity.

We need to refine it as soon as possible to conceal its aura.

Otherwise, if other Martial Arts Experts sense it, I’m afraid there will be more trouble.”

“You are right; this matter cannot be delayed,” the Tower Master regained his composure, “You better refine the opportunity quickly to avoid further complications. Zhirui and I will act as your protectors.”

The most important thing was, if someone came to snatch the opportunity again and triggered the fury in Lu Qing’s heart, even he wouldn’t be able to stop him from going on a killing spree.

Right there and then, the Heavenly Mechanism Tower Master and Lin Zhirui sat cross-legged outside the courtyard.

Ma Gu and his disciples likewise stood guard outside the yard.

As for Lu Qing and the elder doctor, they returned to the house with Little Yan, Little Li, and Hu Zezhi.

“Teacher, Little Li, you two refine the Origin Energy first, and I will protect you,” Lu Qing said.

Even with the Heavenly Mechanism Tower Master and Lin Zhirui guarding outside, Lu Qing was still vigilant.

He didn’t want to fully entrust his safety to others.

“Okay.”

The elder doctor didn’t say much, just nodded his head, then immediately absorbed the light he had been holding into his body and began the refinement process.

As for Little Li, he had already fallen into a deep sleep as usual.

“Mr. Lu, what about us?” Hu Zezhi asked.

The scale of the previous confrontation had frightened her terribly.

She could never have dreamed that one day she would be targeted by so many at the Innate Realm.

“Your Cultivation levels are still shallow, and you are not yet able to refine this Origin Energy; just leave it be for now.

In a few days, it’ll naturally integrate into your bodies.

I’ll craft a couple of talismans for you when I have time, which should be able to conceal your auras,” Lu Qing explained.

“Thank you for that, Mr. Lu.”

Seeing that Lu Qing had a plan, Hu Zezhi let out a big sigh of relief.

Just then, a powerful aura suddenly emanated from the elder doctor’s body.
