Chapter 88 Everything Settled
Within the Dragon-Locking Formation, the rest of the people stopped fighting and stared blankly at the incredible scene. Only Nangong Qingxuan seemed to have realized something and smiled happily.
The giant dragon seemed surprised at its own appearance. He looked around and then gazed at Nangong Qingxuan. It said, “You are the son of Tianxiong? I remember you are the second child. Although Tianxiong mentioned that you are addicted to foreign objects and is not diligent in cultivation, you are actually the one most suited to inherit the Nangong family cultivation. Well, it is good you were able to upgrade the Dragon-Rising Tao to the extreme with such cultivation. With you, the Nangong family’s ‘Fighting Lord” title can be passed down!”
Later, it seemed to feel the existence of the Dragon-Locking Formation. The giant dragon glanced scornfully at it. With a ‘Pa’ sound, the formation, which was almost breaking down, shattered immediately.
At the same time, several Almighty Immortals’ pressure could be felt at the place. Nangong Qingxuan, who was alone a moment ago, was now surrounded by four figures.
Lyu Liang recalled that one of them was the giant man whom he met earlier. At this moment, he had a gloomy look about him and his aura was extremely unstable. He looked like a beast that was in the midst of choosing a target to tear and devour.
One of them, a white-robed lady helped Nangong Qingxuan up the moment she appeared. Tears welled up in her eyes and her lips quivered slightly.
Seeing the four people around him , Nangong Qingxuan seemed very relieved. He smiled and fell into the arms of the white-robed lady, whispering softly, “I am embarrassed by the trouble I caused. The man over there, in a white robe, with a black cat on his shoulder, is my life and death brother, protect him…” Before he could finish speaking, Nangong Qingxuan closed his eyes. As he fell, the golden dragon, which was hovering in the air, disappeared.
“Bai Ye, how is the young master?” asked the old man with the walking stick.
“He is safe. However, though the hell-snake poison in his body was suppressed, we need to find the young master’s mother or go to Immeasurable Sect for the remedy. Besides, he forcibly upgraded his Dragon-Rising Tao to the extreme and that created too much pressure for his body. I have already sealed his Qi Meridian and it is best for him to go into the dragon-washing pool immediately when he returns. He should recover after a few decades.” The white-robed lady explained to the others.
The man at the back, wearing a cape, broke out with a suffocating aura. His eyes turned into snake-like slitty eyes and he said gloomily “Nu Feng, you lost the bet last time, I want you to cash in on the bet now. These guys are mine and you are not allowed to shoot!”
The fierce giant man was stunned for a moment. He was about to retort but seemed to sense something. He answered, “Fine! Later, if there are others and we need to fight, they are all mine! You are not allowed to snatch them from me!!!”
At this time, Beishan Xiao controlled his anger and tried to talk his way through, “I am the son of Beishan Zhenhua, the younger brother of Beishan Hai! You can’t kill me! I didn’t know that he was from the Nangong family and my only target is the white-robed kid! As long as I kill him, I will personally go to the Nangong Family to admit my fault!”
The man in the cape stared at Beishan Xiao as if he was watching an idiot. He sneered, “Are you deaf? Didn’t you hear what my young master said before? I don’t care if you and he have any bloody vendettas. In short, he is the man that young master wanted to protect. Unless I am dead, you will not touch him, not even a strand of his hair!”
At this, Lyu Liang heaved a sigh of relief. Truthfully, at this moment, he was exhausted. He couldn’t trigger any moves now, except to maintain his flying.
When the three people at the Middle-stage of Void Return attacked him, he was able to resist the attacks by relying on the Celadon Jade Seal and Shadow Realm Shield initially. As the attacks intensified and was prolonged, he had to stimulate the “complete state” of the Celadon Jade Seal. Correspondingly, he lost the Devil Immortal Qi rapidly.
In short, in the end, he was only left with a little Primordial Qi to keep his body functioning and he could not make use of any other moves.
“Yes, but he robbed me of the Spirit-empty Body…” Beishan Xiao still did not give up, but before he could finish, he was suddenly oppressed by a strong pressure.
“Bastard! Are you looking for death! Xiaohai, keep him away to stop him from shaming me further!” A roar came, followed by the arrival of a few Almighty Immortals’ auras.
A red-robed old man with a blue beard appeared in the air. Beside him was a handsome red-robed youth who resembled Beishan Xiao. At the same time, five old men with different costumes were behind him and their robes were embroidered with the words, ‘Dou’, ‘Wen’, ‘Guo’, ‘Wang’ and ‘Yan’ respectively. Apparently, they were the people in charge of the five families under the Beishan Family.
Though the man in the cape looked down on Beishan Xiao, when he saw the young man in the red robe, he controlled his anger, smiled and greeted him, “Haha, Hai’zi, because of your younger brother, my off day is wasted. Later, you must accompany me to the Piao Xiang Mansion and this matter will be considered as settled! If you don’t go, little Taohong will ignore… Hey, nope, it’s your younger brother’s debt! It’s natural for you to help him pay it!”
The young man in the red robe smiled wryly and clasped his fists, “Brother Yu, this time it is indeed my brother’s fault. I shall welcome you at Piao Xiang Mansion half a month later!” After that, he rushed to the ground where Beishan Xiao was. When he approached him, he shook his head and sighed. Then, he waved his hand and a pagoda gleaming with silver light appeared. Several white lights were emitted from the tower and surrounded Beishan Xiao. When the lights were gone, there was no one on the ground.
At this point, the red-robed old man cupped his hands at the Void and said, “Younger brother Nangong, this time it was my fault! After I teach the bastard a lesson, I will visit you personally to apologize!”
When the voice fell, a dark little python appeared in the Void. Then, a purple-bearded giant man appeared, but he did not emit any aura. He also cupped his hands to the red-robed old man and said gently, “Older brother, you do not have to do this. My kid also sneaked out when I was meditating. He changed his name and created a lot of trouble. Since there is no serious problem, we do not have to talk about this again! I see that the five families under you have also lost some manpower, let the matter end here!”
The red-robed old man thanked him after hearing his words. Then he turned his eyes to Lyu Liang and stared at him for a while. He said sternly, “This little friend, my bastard son, has caused trouble for you. I can guarantee that from now on he will no longer offend you! I have a token here, which is the amulet of the Beishan family. You can transfer it to the woman with the Spirit-empty Body and let her refine it. From now on, as long as she is within the Northern Heaven District, no one will dare to touch her!” After that, he threw a fiery red token to Lyu Liang, which had two gold characters “Bei Shan” on it.
Lyu Liang took it and eventually felt the Immortal Qi breezing through his face. He was overjoyed and he had a hunch that this was definitely a good treasure that could not be found easily!
Later, the red-robed old man apologized to the purple-bearded man and then disappeared with his own party. At this time, a blue pearl floated in front of the purple-bearded man. It was the Domain-Trapping Pearl used by Nangong Qingxuan.
The purple-bearded man did not keep the bead but stared at Lyu Liang for a moment, then he smiled and nodded, “I am Nangong Tianxiong, you are the life and death brother of my stupid son? You are no ordinary person to be able to kill one Void Return staged cultivator and hurt the other two. No wonder you are my Junior Brother!”
“Ah?” Lyu Liang’s breath almost stopped when he heard the last sentence. Junior Brother? He looked around and found that he was the only one person on this side. He then pointed to himself and said doubtfully, “Senior, you said that I am your Junior Brother?!”
Nangong Tianxiong laughed loudly and continued, “Is there a cause-effect streamer in your body? It must have been given to you by the Master. However, your fate has not yet arrived, so you don’t know about it. You don’t have to think about it, just follow your own heart and go on.”
Lyu Liang pondered and thanked him respectfully, “Thank you for your guidance, senior! I will remember this in my heart! Also, how are Qingxuan’s injury and poison in his body? Is there any problem with his healing?”
Nangong Tianxiong answered softly, “No big deal, it’s time for this fearless kid to go through some sufferings. This Domain-Trapping Pearl is an immortal standard upper-grade magic treasure. I will give it to you as an offer, do not refuse! It is also a proof of your relationship with Qingxuan. Please accept it! In the future, when you arrive in Southern Heaven District, you must remember to come to Nangong Family as a guest. We all welcome you!”
At this point, the white-robed lady approached Lyu Liang and handed him a medicinal pill. Lyu Liang knew what it was. This was exactly what would make him recover, the immortal standard medicinal pill, Full-Recovery Pill. Then, Lyu Liang bowed to express his gratitude, and he took the medicinal pill. Thirty minutes later, his aura was once again vigorous.
Since everything was settled, Nangong Tianxiong left with a group of people. Lyu Song’s performance this time was very satisfying to Lyu Liang; at least he helped them to stop Beishan Xiao for a while. After lecturing him for a while, Lyu Liang returned his Life-Soul and asked him to leave. Before leaving, Lyu Song made three kowtows to Lyu Liang and made a life-bonded vow that his life would be Lyu Liang’s from now on!
Subsequently, Lyu Liang decided not to go to the swords grave and flew directly back to the market place. In the place where he had chatted with Nangong Qingxuan, he rented a room and released Su Qiao’er. Black knew that Lyu Liang had something to say and he went into the cave residence to rest.
When Su Qiao’er came out, she still had tears on her face and was pouting. She was chagrined.
Looking at her lovable expression, Lyu Liang was embarrassed and softly said, “Qiao’er, I was too rough before, but the situation was urgent, I have no other choice and I hope you can understand. I believe you already knew what happened before while you are in the cave residence. Now, I shall give you two treasures as aids for your future life.”
As Lyu Liang was speaking, he took out the Beishan Token and the Domain-Trapping Pearl from his arms and he handed over the two treasures. Su Qiao’er wanted to refuse at first, but when she looked at Lyu Liang’s sincere expression, she accepted them quickly and at the same time, she also made a decision in her mind.
Refining the Beishan Token and the Domain-Trapping Pearl was easy. One was without the owner and the other’s Divine Sense mark had been erased by the Nangong Tianxiong, which was equivalent to being ownerless as well.
At the moment when the Beishan Token was refined, two virtual shadows in human forms floated out, emitting an aura at the Peak of Almighty Immortal. They respectfully bowed to Su Qiao’er and addressed her as master.
According to the virtual shadows, they were the personal bodyguards of Su Qiao’er. As long as there were unscrupulous people who were trying to hurt their master, they would be reduced to ashes.
At the same time, because it was in the Northern Heaven District, whoever dared to attack the person holding the Beishan Token, unless they were out of the entire Mortal Realm, they would be in a life-or-death situation with the people from Beishan Family.
The only thing that was not so good was that they could only protect and they would never take the initiative to attack. This was the prohibition that was set at the time of their birth.
Lyu Liang was stunned. No wonder the owner of Beishan Family said that with this token, Su Qiao’er could comfortably live in Northern Heaven District. Especially with the Domain-Trapping Pearl, she could basically walk sideways.
Looking Su Qiao’er’s delighted face, Lyu Liang also heaved a sigh of relief and thought for a moment. He solemnly said, “Qiao’er, you have the magic treasures that I have given you to hide your Divine Sense and now you have the Beishan Token and the Domain-Trapping Pearl. Our relationship shall end here and we should go our separate ways!”
