"Arrange for me to meet with Liu Jingchuan." Lu Xiaotian nodded.
"Does Senior already have a foolproof plan? That Liu Jingchuan is exceptionally careful, and in the past five years, he seems to have made great progress. Junior doesn't know exactly how far he has progressed. Junior has a robe that can conceal the aura of one's cultivation method. Does Senior want to stay in the Spirit Vulture Workshop for a while and figure out Liu Jingchuan's actual situation before making a move? "Luo Pinger asked.
"That's fine." Lu Xiaotian was not an arrogant person. Although he knew that Liu Jingchuan had formed his Gold Core for nearly ninety years, everyone's cultivation talent was different. There were very few who had the potential to break through from the early Jin Dan stage to the late Jin Dan stage. Lu Xiaotian estimated that with his current strength and the Eight Trigrams Demon Sealing Formation, dealing with a mid Jin Dan stage cultivator shouldn't be a problem. However, he was still not a match for a late Jin Dan stage cultivator. The difference in cultivation was too great, and it wasn't something that could be made up for with a formation.
Luo Pinger took out a brocade box. Inside it was a transparent robe as thin as the Dark Wing. Lu Xiaotian couldn't sense the aura of the robe, and his expression changed. He cultivated the Aura Concealing Technique and didn't need this robe. However, since the other party had delivered it to him, he had no reason to refuse.
"This robe was passed down from my father. Junior has been using it all this time. However, in order to get rid of that evil Liu Jingchuan, I can only give it to Senior this time." Luo Pinger said with a face full of reluctance.
"I will do my best to help you get rid of this person. However, if the situation changes and exceeds what I can handle, you will have to find another way out. In addition, your Spirit Vulture Workshop's predicament is that you don't have a high level cultivator to oversee it. If you don't break through to the Jin Dan stage and survive this predicament, you may encounter similar or even greater difficulties in the future. Asking for outside help is only a temporary measure. "After receiving the robe, Lu Xiaotian said a few words of advice.
"Senior's words are reasonable. Junior understands."
Luo Pinger was taken aback. In recent years, she had indeed spent a lot of time and energy on the operation of the Spirit Vulture Workshop, so much so that her cultivation had been somewhat affected. Although Lu Xiaotian's words were not pleasant to hear, they hit the nail on the head. He couldn't help but believe in Lu Xiaotian a little more.
"Over the past few years, Liu Jingchuan has placed too many trusted aides in the Spirit Vulture Ward. If I were to place Senior in the Spirit Vulture Ward, I'm afraid that it would arouse Liu Jingchuan's suspicions. For the time being, why don't Senior stay by Junior's side? In name, you will be my bodyguard," Luo Ping 'er said. "It just so happens that Liu Jingchuan is looking for me the day after tomorrow. When the time comes, I will bring Senior along to check out the situation."
"Alright, let's do that." Lu Xiaotian nodded. He entered the courtyard and put on the Severed Silkworm Treasured Clothing. He discovered that his aura had indeed been concealed even more perfectly. Previously, when he used the Breath Holding Technique, even a cultivator in the late stage of Jin Dan would find it difficult to truly see through him. Now, he had no idea what level he had reached.
The two sides discussed the details for a while before Lu Xiaotian left with Luo Ping 'er.
A few days later, Lu Xiaotian followed Luo Ping 'er to the Spirit Vulture Ward's headquarters. The Spirit Vulture Ward and the Silver Dagger Gang had divided the island into two. Although rogue cultivators occasionally crossed the border, there were not many of them. The Spirit Vulture Ward occupied a large area. Outside the headquarters, there were Foundation Establishment cultivators and a small number of Qi Refining cultivators standing guard.
"Halt! Elder Liu has ordered that everyone who enters the headquarters must be inspected, "the leader of the group, a middle-aged armored cultivator, said with a solemn expression.
"Even I, the owner of the ward, must be inspected?" Luo Ping 'er said angrily.
"The ward owner naturally does not need to be inspected, but everyone below the ward owner is no exception," the armored middle-aged man said coldly, as if he didn't take Luo Ping 'er seriously at all.
"Very good. It seems that you are looking down on me more and more. You even want to inspect my people." Luo Ping 'er was so angry that her face turned pale.
"I am Zhang Guang of the Silver Dagger Gang. I have specially come to pay a visit to Head Elder Liu!" At this moment, outside the ward, a grey-robed late Foundation Establishment cultivator loudly shouted.
"Oh, so it's Ward Owner Luo. It's truly a pleasure to meet you."
The grey-robed cultivator of the Silver Dagger Gang was surprised to see Luo Ping 'er, but he didn't take it to heart. There wasn't much respect in his tone.
"Senior Lu, what should we do?" Although Luo Ping 'er was extremely angry, she hadn't lost her rationality.
"Don't tell me that the people beside you can't even take down a gatekeeper? Slap him." Lu Xiaotian said. Although he had always wanted to keep a low profile, the Silverleaf Buddha Tree was in Liu Jingchuan's hands. There was no possibility of reconciliation between the two of them. In the end, a battle was unavoidable. If the other party wanted to rummage through his Spirit Beast Pouch or Storage Pouch, how could he allow them to inspect it? Since that was the case, he might as well force his way in.
"That won't be the case. Although I have fallen to this point, I am still not someone a gatekeeper can look down on." After hearing Lu Xiaotian's words, Luo Ping 'er's heart was filled with confidence. She coldly looked at the middle-aged man. "Even Head Elder Liu is very polite to me. What ability does a little gatekeeper have to look down on me? Take him down! "
Luo Ping 'er ordered. The two middle-aged women behind her had a trace of worry in their eyes, but they didn't hesitate and directly took out their weapons to suppress the middle-aged man.
The middle-aged man wanted to resist, but a rope had already quietly shot out from the hands of a young female cultivator and wrapped around his neck. Three against one, before the other cultivators could react, they were already taken down.
Lu Xiaotian's eyes flashed with a trace of surprise. There were more than ten people behind Luo Ping 'er, but only three of them had made a move. Not only were their cultivations not bad among Foundation Establishment cultivators, their combined attack technique was also exquisite. Even when he was in Foundation Establishment stage, if he didn't use the Ice Soul Profound Melody, it would have taken him a lot of effort to take down these three people.
At this time, even more Foundation Establishment cultivators rushed out of the square and looked at Luo Ping 'er with unfriendly expressions. Many of them were old people who had stayed in the Spirit Vulture Square before, but there were also some Foundation Establishment cultivators who were recruited by Liu Jingchuan and didn't give Luo Ping' er much face.
"Square Master, you took down Head Elder's people for no reason. Are you looking down on Head Elder?" At this time, a round and fat cultivator with a mustache walked out of the crowd. He looked like the owner of the square and cupped his hands towards the Silver Dagger Gang. "So it's Brother Zhang. It's just a small family matter, please excuse us."
"It's this Zhang who took the liberty to visit." Zhang Guang smiled modestly and retreated to the side. "Since you have matters to attend to today, this Zhang will come another day."
"No matter, it's just a small matter. Brother Zhang, please wait a moment. Once I've taken care of this matter, I'll welcome Brother Zhang inside." The mustached cultivator stroked his beard and smiled, his gaze sweeping over the people who had made a move. "As expected of a woman, you don't know the rules at all. Square Master is young and impetuous. As servants, you should advise him more. How can you cause trouble with him?"
