Qin Changqing’s idea was simple: using spirit grass to refine elixirs and improve his alchemy proficiency.

The same spirit grass, if handed in directly or refined into an elixir, would result in completely different values.

He could use his alchemy skills to earn the ‘price difference’ in the process.

Moreover, this was completely legal and legitimate.

After chatting for a while, Qin Changqing left the office and planned to have a cup of tea and rest with Qin Lingshuang before setting off again.

The three of them were walking down the street.

As they turned a corner and passed a less crowded area, the noise from the ancient buildings on both sides suddenly ceased.

Qin Lingshuang’s footsteps paused, and her eyebrows furrowed.

“Senior Brother, something’s wrong.”

As soon as her words fell, a group of people suddenly rushed out from both sides of the road.

There were fifteen of them in total!

Among the fifteen, seven were at the Foundation Establishment stage, with varying levels of strength. The lowest was at Tier 3 Foundation Establishment, while the highest was at the Foundation Establishment Peak!

Although the rest were only Cultivating Qi cultivators, they moved decisively and cooperated exceptionally well.

At this moment, the fifteen of them attacked together. The majority targeted

Qin Changqing, while the others focused on Qin Lingshuang and Murong Xue.

“Senior Brother, be careful!”

Qin Lingshuang wanted to assist, but she was entangled by three late-stage

Foundation Establishment cultivators.

Her eyes turned cold, and she unleashed her Autumn Rain Sword Skill.

However, her opponents were not weak either. Their combat experience was also extremely rich, and they coordinated well together. Under their joint efforts, Qin Lingshuang couldn’t break through their defense for the time being. n)-0vElb1n

Although they couldn’t hurt Qin Lingshuang either.

But the main target of this attack was obviously Qin Changqing!

The remaining twelve people, including a middle-stage Foundation Establishment cultivator and several Cultivating Qi cultivators, were all attacking Murong Xue. The other three Foundation Establishment cultivators and the remaining Cultivating Qi cultivators were all charging towards Qin Changqing!

Seeing danger approaching, Qin Changqing didn’t hesitate to use the Trinity Sword Formation. The three sharp swords shot into the air, and ordinary Cultivating Qi cultivators couldn’t block them for a moment.

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!-

In the blink of an eye, three Cultivating Qi cultivators fell to the ground.

“Attack together!” Among the three Foundation Establishment cultivators, one had already reached Tier 9. At this moment, he joined forces with the other two to suppress Qin Changqing’s sword array.

Their teamwork was surprising.

Although Qin Changqing’s spiritual qi burst out powerfully, he was still only at Tier 3 Foundation Establishment. A prolonged battle would exhaust him. That Tier 9 Foundation Establishment cultivator seemed to have realized this.

“Hold him back!”

Qin Changqing killed two Cultivating Qi cultivators.

But he couldn’t break through their encirclement.

“Sir, I advise you not to meddle in other people’s affairs!” The attacker spoke in a deep voice, his body’s Qi surging. The effect of the elixir was at its peak, and it would fade soon, rendering him unable to fight even a mortal afterwards.

Time was running out!

The black-clad woman didn’t speak, and as her long sword swung, Qin Changqing noticed the sword emitting a chilling silver glow, extremely sharp and terrifying as a wisp of black aura rolled around it. Seeing this, the leader of the attackers gave the order: “Kill her together!” His subordinates rushed forward as commanded.

However, in the next moment, the woman slashed her sword in place, filling the air with crisscrossing sword Qi, more powerful than Qin Changqing’s talisman seal from earlier!

Swish swish swish!

A single stroke sealed their fate!

Three of them were killed instantly, while the rest were injured.

Even the one who had taken the elixir to attain the Foundation Establishment Peak had a wound ripped across his chest.

“So fierce!?” Qin Changqing’s eyes widened.

This woman’s cultivation didn’t seem high. but her attacks contained an unfathomable realm.

He saw the black-clad woman’s offensive continue, killing a few more attackers before lunging at the one with the highest cultivation.

The opponent was horrified, exploding with the power of the elixir to block a few moves. The woman’s sword shattered his weapon, and he retreated with his left hand clutching his wound.

“The plan has changed!”

As he spoke, one of the attackers surrounding Qin Lingshuang immediately ordered: “Retreat!”

Including those three, a total of six people quickly withdrew.

They came quickly and left without panic, clearly having planned it all along.

“They just left?” Qin Changqing furrowed his brows, feeling that these people were too extraordinary. Even disciples from sects couldn’t coordinate this well, and that heavy aura of murderous intent was not something ordinary people possessed.

It was cultivated from slaughtering!

The Gongsun Family?

Qin Changqing thought of this possibility but shook his head inwardly, dismissing it and turning to the black-clad woman not far away: “Thank you for your help, lady warrior...”

Before he could finish, a flash of cold light passed in front of his eyes, and the black-clad woman who had just attacked the assailants was now coming at him!

“Big Senior Brother, be careful!”

Qin Changqing was shocked and cast his sword spell, summoning three flying swords at once.

Unexpectedly, the powerful Trinity Sword Formation was shattered upon contact by the black-clad woman!

She didn’t break through with brute force but saw through the flaws in his Sword Array and broke it cleverly!

Such ability was simply beyond comprehension.

Clang!

Qin Lingshuang rushed over just in time and deflected the woman’s sword. “Huh?” The black-clad woman frowned, but instead of retreating, she advanced.

“Trying to hurt my Senior Brother? Dream on!”

Qin Lingshuang’s expression turned icy on her face. Even with her powerful sword skills and the Autumn Rain Sword, she found herself no match for the black-clad woman. Qin Changqing hurriedly gave her assistance, and the two of them struggled to maintain a stalemate until Murong Xue joined in.

At that moment, a commotion came from the end of the street, and a group of people rushed toward them quickly.

The black-clad woman forced Qin Changqing and Qin Lingshuang back, glanced at them, hesitated for a moment, and stared unwillingly at Qin Changqing.

To be exact, she was staring at the storage bag hanging from his waist.

With a gentle step, the black-clad woman floated and leaped into the ancient building on the side of the street, disappearing from view..
