“Damn it, who the hell plundered the Lu family treasury? They didn’t even leave the scraps.”

At that moment, a cultivator entered the Lu Residence and immediately began to swear, utterly disgusted.

He had originally thought that since Misty Cloud City was breached, he could enter the Lu Residence and commit grand theft.

However, who could have expected that when he arrived at the Lu Residence, the place was completely deserted?

Even within the treasury, there was nothing left.

This was even worse than a rat entering a granary.

“Not only did they not leave any treasures, they even burned down the entire Lu Residence. Whoever pulled this nasty trick didn’t even leave us any soup.” Another cultivator grinded his teeth furiously in rage.

They were among the first to reach the Lu Residence, yet they still couldn’t outdo that mysterious cultivator who beat them there and ransacked all the treasures in the Lu Residence.

This resulted in them returning empty-handed.

“I happen to think that it might not have been an outsider who did this.

Perhaps the Lu family staged this themselves.”

However, someone didn’t think this was the case. Their eyes gleamed, “Misty Cloud City had just been breached, everyone else was busy escaping for their lives, no one would have thought to attack the Lu Residence.

At that time, the Lu Residence was fully armed, and there were many cultivators in the late Qi Cultivation stage. Unless a Foundation-building Cultivator took actions personally, it would be impossible to eliminate so many elders of the Lu family in such a short time.

The issue is there aren’t many Foundation-building Cultivators, they couldn’t have reached the Lu Residence. Ordinary cultivators were no match for the Lu family, so I think it’s highly likely that the Lu family staged this themselves. Their aim is to make us believe that the Lu family suffered a catastrophe and their treasures have long been snatched away by other Loose Cultivators. But in reality, they would have secretly taken away their treasures long before.” As soon as these words came out, the other cultivators were suddenly enlightened and understood immediately.

None of them were fools, they immediately grasped the key point.

“So it is, I was wondering, how can anyone be faster than us?”

“It must be the Lu family who did this, faking a scene of being robbed, actually, they had already ordered the Lu family’s descendants to flee with the treasures.”

■’This is a trick played by the Lu family, truly cunning for a centuries-old family.”

“Immediately find the remaining Lu family members, the Lu family’s treasures must be with them, we can’t let them escape.”

“Son of a bitch, we almost fell for it, the Lu family people are really vicious and crafty.”

The cultivators all discussed fervently among themselves, cursing loudly.

They also felt that this guess made too much sense, even if there were outsiders, it was highly unlikely they could defeat the Lu family elders, and their speed couldn’t have been that fast.

So apart from the Lu family staging all this, there were virtually no other possibilities.

Suddenly, numerous cultivators began to scatter, searching for the Lu family cultivators, hoping to find the treasures left by the Lu family.

At that moment, Zhou Sui, who was safe in the underground shelter, was happily aware of everything happening in Misty Cloud City.

The entire city was in utter chaos.

Cultivators from the Immortal Mist Sect, the Ghost Demon Sect, various big families and Loose Cultivators were all fighting amongst each other.

Vicious fights were breaking out everywhere.

Of course, this had nothing to do with Zhou Sui. He could watch the fire from the other side without getting burned.

All he had to do was quietly wait until the upheaval ended.

His foresight had led him to build the underground shelter in advance.

If he had not been able to build the underground shelter, perhaps he would have joined the fleeing crowd, fearing that the Ghost Demon Sect cultivators would find him.

“Huh?!”

Just then, Zhou Sul’s mind was stirred. One of his clones sensed a beautiful silhouette silently flying out from the Lu Residence, appearing in a nearby dark alleyway. It seemed like the silhouette was trying to seize the opportunity to leave.

This figure was suffused with a powerful aura, clearly surpassing the Qi Cultivation Stage and almost reaching the Foundation Establishment Realm. However, the aura fluctuated, appearing as though it would disappear at any moment.

“What’s going on? Does Misty Cloud City have a second Foundation-building Cultivator?”

“Oh, right. There seems to be a Foundation-building cultivator in Misty Cloud

City, but he is from Immortal Mist Sect.”

“Could it be Leng Yuexi, the Young Sect Master of Immortal Mist Sect? But the woman seems to be in terrible condition.”

Zhou Sui stroked his chin.

He immediately recalled the numerous pieces of information he had obtained.

There were only two Foundation-building cultivator in Misty Cloud City.

One was Lu Hongran, the patriarch of the Lu family.

The other was Leng Yuexi, the Young Sect Master of Immortal Mist Sect.

But Lu Hongran had just risked his life fighting against the

Foundation-building demon cultivators, and the battle had not yet ended, the result was unknown.

As for Leng Yuexi, she should be a Foundation-building cultivator.

However, she hadn’t fought alongside Lu Hongran, which meant she must have had a health problem.

Otherwise, if Leng Yuexi had joined the battle, these Foundation-building demon cultivators might not have been able to hold out.

“Rumor has it that this woman was secretly attacked by a cultivator from the Ghost Demon Sect and got poisoned severely. Her life is at stake.

“Could that rumor be true?”

Zhou Sui’s eyes gleamed.

He obtained this information from the memories of many cultivators of the Lu family.

He also knew some information about Leng Yuexi.

This woman was indeed a genius. She was only eighty years old, but she had already reached the peak of Foundation Establishment.

First Grade Spiritual Root Aptitude.

She was just one step away from advancing to Golden Core.

If she hadn’t been attacked by the Ghost Demon Sect, she might have become a Golden Core Master by now.

“This seems to be an opportunity.”

“If I could plant the Obsession Gu in this woman, wouldn’t I practically have a Foundation-building companion?”

“Then won’t things like Foundation Pill and Second Stage Demonic Beast’s inner core be readily available?”

“Besides, she’s only poisoned, not on the verge of death.

“If I could cure the poison in her body, then I would gain a complete Foundation-building battle force.”

Thinking of this, Zhou Sui was immediately intrigued. He thought this might actually be his real chance.

What bullshit Lu family’s fortune, that was nowhere near as valuable as this woman.

She was the Young Sect Master of Immortal Mist Sect, a fairy from a reputable sect who might become the next Sect Master of Immortal Mist Sect.

If he could marry her, it would be equivalent to receiving the entire Immortal Mist Sect as a dowry.

After those two Golden Core cultivators of Immortal Mist Sect passed away, Immortal Mist Sect would be his.

Although he was furious about what Immortal Mist Sect had done, and he even wanted to destroy it, who wouldn’t want to take control of Immortal Mist Sect if given the chance.

just like in his past life, everyone criticized companies like Tencent and Alibaba, calling them vampires.

But if they could take control of these companies, owning the majority of shares, that would be a completely different story.

Those criticisms were merely because they couldn’t get a piece of the action.

“What a treasure, what a treasure.”

Zhou Sui felt that he was like the Lu Buwei of the cultivation world.

In the past, Lu Buwei had become the prime minister of the Qin State from a mere businessman by sponsoring Qin Shi Huang. He had a great promotion in status.

And now, by relying on Leng Yuexi, the Young Sect Master of Immortal Mist Sect, he could become the Grand Elder of Immortal Mist Sect.

If this wasn’t a legend, then what was?

Who said that a person with a lower-grade spiritual root couldn’t join a Golden Core Sect? Just marry a beautiful sect master, right?!
