It was precisely because Meng Guan had unparalleled strength and was a disciple of the sect.
Therefore, when three Late Foundation Establishment Masters were slain by him, they did not choose to besiege Meng Guan at that time. Only the Foundation Establishment Master who knew the secret of the Li Family wanted to take action.
However, at that time, his cultivation was only at the Mid-stage Foundation Establishment, and there was only one of him. He had no certainty of defeating Meng Guan at all.
Even the assurance of remaining undefeated against Meng Guan was not there.
He thought in his heart.
If he were to be killed by Meng Guan inadvertently, he would have nowhere to cry.
Under such circumstances,
Even knowing that there was a secret within the Li Family, the Foundation Establishment Master eventually gave up on taking action against Meng Guan after much hesitation.
Opportunity is good,
But one must have the life to take it.
Master Duan Hun, with a dharma title, had a cultivation base that had reached the Late Foundation Establishment Stage, and his power was extremely terrifying.
He had personally witnessed Master Duan Hun beheading a Li Family Foundation Establishment cultivator and then cutting the Li Family mansion to pieces with a single slash.
That scene had a huge impact on a Foundation Establishment Master like him, who had been living under the protection of his family since childhood.
As a result, he could only temporarily retreat and not dare to provoke trouble.
Among the three Foundation Establishment Masters from the Eight-vein Immortal City’s Foundation Establishment families, each was a quite talented disciple handpicked from their respective families.
They had not experienced the intrigue among loose cultivators.
Nor had they experienced life-and-death struggles within the same realm.
Compared to the bloodthirsty loose cultivators,
and ferocious men like Meng Guan.
Although their strength was formidable, they basically didn’t have many chances for conflict.
This time, they were invited to participate in the siege of He Song, because they had the support of a group of people, a high-ranking senior member leading their charge, and a chance to forge a good relationship with Master Lie Feng, which is why they agreed to come.
Otherwise, with their self-awareness, they would definitely not have taken part in this muddy water affair.
After Meng Guan beheaded the people of the Li Family and swept away their treasures that had been accumulated over the years, he quickly left the Eight-vein Immortal City.
The families of the three individuals were naturally quick to divide up the new territory that had emerged following the destruction of the Li Family.
As such, having benefited, they naturally wouldn_sigence contract
Even the Foundation Establishment Master who knew the secret of the Li Family gradually forgot about this matter in his heart.
That is until now.
He died at the hands of He Song.
Only then did He Song excavate from the depths of his memory the traces of Meng Guan’s visit to the place, and learn everything that had happened back then.
“It seems that Lao Meng must have gained quite a bit from the Li Family’s collection.”
“But it’s unknown whether there would be any Golden Elixir secrets in the collection of a side branch of the Li Family, which has the power of a Golden Elixir force.”
“If there is…perhaps Lao Meng has been chasing it all these years, trying to find the Golden Congealing Elixir Pill.”
After going through the memories of the four individuals, He Song looked solemn, but his heart flashed with the memories of his conversations with Meng Guan after the latter had left the Eight-vein Immortal City.
At that time, Meng Guan had communicated with him quite frequently, but He Song had not noticed anything unusual from their correspondence.
After some consideration,
due to the limited information, He Song had not made many guesses.
In the end,
after taking all five storage bags, eight high-quality artifacts, and two top-quality artifacts that lay on the ground, He Song finally fixed his gaze on the direction of the Eight-vein Immortal City.
The matter here had come to an end, but there was still one matter within the Eight-vein Immortal City, waiting for him to do.
Nowadays, the four Foundation Establishment Masters behind the four major families in Eight-vein Immortal City are killed.
Xu Jie, the Sub-Pavilion Master of the Treasure Pavilion in the Eight-Vein Immortal City, had also died at the hands of Master Lie Feng.
As a result,
only four Masters at the Mid-stage Foundation Establishment stage were left to guard the Eight-vein Immortal City.
At this moment, the defensive power of the Eight-vein Immortal City is at its weakest.
If there were invaders, the Eight-vein Immortal City might change hands in an instant.
Of course,
He Song, who is almost a loose cultivator now, naturally wouldn’t do such a thing.
He just set his sights on the treasuries of the Four Big Foundation Establishment Families.
After cleaning up the traces in the valley,
He Song did not dismantle the array here.
Next,
he would enter the Eight-vein Immortal City again.
But there are at least four, or even more Foundation Establishment Masters waiting for him in the Eight-vein Immortal City.
If he were besieged for a while, leaving this Golden Elixir Array here might make him feel a bit safer.
The number of Foundation Establishment Masters in the Eight-vein Immortal City is not a random guess by He Song,
but because he had served as a guardian of the Immortal City, he naturally knew that there would be at least four sect cultivators with cultivation bases reaching the Mid-stage Foundation Establishment stage guarding each Immortal City.
Apart from these four Mid-stage Foundation Establishment sect cultivators, there might also be visiting cultivators from other places who had reached the Foundation Establishment stage.
In this way, the number of Foundation Establishment Masters in the Eight-vein Immortal City is definitely more than just four.
If he were to cause too much commotion in the Eight-vein Immortal City, the four Mid-stage Foundation Establishment cultivators guarding the city would surely try to stop him.
At that time, facing four or even more opponents alone, he would have to leave himself some room for retreat.
With this in mind, He Song felt no need to dismantle the formation here as he was leaving the valley.
Soon,
He Song’s figure left the valley.
And he quickly and quietly disguised himself as a Qi Refining stage cultivator, infiltrating the Eight-vein Immortal City.
Due to the existence of the Breath Concealment Skill, He Song’s disguise was quite successful, and no Foundation Establishment Masters detected his presence.
After entering the Eight-vein Immortal City, He Song went straight to the families of the four Foundation Establishment Masters he had previously slain.
As for the Four Big Foundation Establishment Families, with their family Foundation Establishment Masters now dead, He Song naturally wouldn’t let their treasures go.
Under the condition of no Foundation Establishment Masters,
what would happen if a cultivator, who had reached the Late Foundation Establishment stage, sneaked into a family treasure vault?
He Song didn’t know the answer to this question before.
But now,
he does.
No matter if it’s useful or not, no matter the value,
anything placed in the family treasure house was completely taken away by He Song.
The family treasure houses of the Four Big Foundation Establishment Families quickly became incredibly empty.
All the treasures inside had disappeared, not even a single hair was left behind.
After going through all four Foundation Establishment Family treasure houses and putting everything inside his storage bag,
He Song’s figure appeared in a hidden corner of Master Lie Feng’s family residence.
As his eyes swept over the exquisite buildings before him, He Song remained expressionless, but his gaze reminded him of his thoughts.
As an everlasting being, he definitely wouldn’t get involved in family affairs.
