Ever since he'd guessed Madame Bai's identity, Yang Chen knew that all the invaders were courting death.
Disregarding everything else, just the hundred thousand kilometers of Heavenly Tribulation Domain outside the manor wasn't a place an ordinary profound immortal could cross. Ten times the Xuan Immortal Heavenly Tribulation. Unless one's strength had reached the Golden Immortal level, Xuan Immortal experts would just be sending themselves to their deaths.
Moreover, even if they survived, they'd have to ascend after the tribulation. No matter how strong they were, they wouldn't be able to threaten Madame Bai in the manor.
As for the other methods, Yang Chen didn't even need to think about it. Forefather Lu had already arranged everything and could make Madame Bai act at any time.
"I think it's better to leave a few alive to interrogate them about their identities and intentions." Yang Chen didn't answer Madame Bai's question. Instead, he made a similar suggestion.
"Very well!" Madame Bai nodded lightly. Her veiled face didn't show any expression, but everyone could tell from the gleam in her eyes that she was ready to kill.
"Rose, Peony, bring a few alive," Madame Bai ordered. Madam Bai gave an order, and the two maids were about to leave when they heard Madam Bai ask, "Yang Chen, what kind of person would know?"
"The ones with the highest cultivation, the ones who seem to be the ones giving the orders, and the ones who are the most cowardly." Yang Chen didn't hesitate to list a few options. "Or, those who've been here before." Although he knew that Madame Bai and the maids had been asleep, Yang Chen was sure that they would know who'd entered when they'd woken up.
"Do as young master Yang says." Madame Bai finally waved her hand. Both Rose and Peony curtsied, then quickly retreated.
From these two flower names, Yang Chen was even more certain that Madame Bai was White Peony. Otherwise, her maids wouldn't have such flower names.
Yang Chen didn't know what Madame Bai would do, but he didn't need to know. He was certain that the invaders would die, and that was enough.
Yang Chen also heard another meaning in Madame Bai's address. She called Yang Chen by his name, and as a senior, it was understandable. But she had asked the maids to address him as Young Master Yang, which clearly meant that she was treating him as her own junior.
He didn't expect to have such a close relationship with Ancestor Lu in the Spiritual Realm. He had thought that it was possible to be recognized only after he obtained Shi Shanshan's Supreme Pure Yang Sword Qi from the Celestial World. But now, he was simply a senior backing that came knocking on his door!
Not long after, Yang Chen heard a flurry of footsteps, and then a few figures were thrown to the ground.
A human cultivator at the eighth stage of the Mystic Immortal Stage, a cultivator at the fifth stage of the Mystic Immortal Stage, and two wretched cultivators at the Earth Immortal Stage had all lost their ability to move.
Looking at the two familiar Earthly Immortal cultivators, Yang Chen smiled. The two shopkeepers of the Poor Acid Pavilion and the Lost Star Pavilion were indeed unwilling to give up. After giving Yang Chen the address, they still wanted to follow Yang Chen and take advantage of the situation.
If that was the case, Yang Chen wouldn't have taken it too far. It was human nature, after all. It was normal for one to feel indignant after giving away something that they had been eyeing for hundreds of years. However, bringing along so many experts was a completely different matter.
"Shopkeepers, we meet again." Yang Chen teased the two shopkeepers.
Not far away, the two maids, Ruan Ji and Peony, were placing a large pile of magic treasures and Qiankun bags on a table. From the looks of it, these were the belongings of the invading enemies.
The two shopkeepers of the Poor Acid Pavilion and the Lost Star Pavilion couldn't even move. When they suddenly heard Yang Chen's voice, they were so scared that they shivered.
"Spare me! Spare me! "The shopkeeper of the Poor Acid Pavilion was the most unprincipled one. He immediately started begging. If he could move, he would probably kneel down and kowtow to Mo Wuji.
The shopkeeper of the Lost Star Pavilion was more strong-willed. He didn't even beg for mercy, but his trembling body revealed his nervousness.
"It's none of our business!" The voice of the shopkeeper of the Poor Acid Pavilion was miserable as if his parents had died in front of him. "We sold things and earned a sum of spirit stones. We planned to conceal our identity, but we were found out. There was no way!"
After crying for a long time, Yang Chen didn't continue. Over there, Ruan Ji came over with two Qiankun bags and respectfully handed them to Yang Chen's hands. "Young Master Yang, these are the Qiankun bags of the two of them."
Yang Chen reached out and took it. With a sweep of his spiritual awareness, he understood most of the things inside. In addition to spirit stones, there were some messy magic treasures and materials. They were very extensive, but it was in line with the identity of the two shopkeepers.
However, Yang Chen did not trust them so much. He stepped to the side of the two and suddenly reached out and pressed on the head of the shopkeeper of the Poor Acid Pavilion.
With a move of his mind, Xiao Tian appeared in the hands of Yang Chen. It seemed to drill into the head of the shopkeeper of the Poor Acid Pavilion. Then Yang Chen pulled his hand back and the two brilliant Flying Swords were pulled out from the body of the shopkeeper of the Poor Acid Pavilion by Xiao Tian.
"It's actually a dragon species, interesting." Madam Bai, who had not spoken, saw the action of Xiao Tian and her eyes lit up. Even if she couldn't remember who she was, it did not hinder her extraordinary eyesight. The masters of the Immortal World were masters of the Immortal World. Naturally, they were different from ordinary people.
"Shopkeeper, your Life Source Flying Sword is not ordinary!" Yang Chen held one of the swords and carefully observed it. He said with a smile, "It's still this unique refining technique, it's rare!"
"This is the reward they bribed us to give." The shopkeeper of the Poor Acid Pavilion just wanted to argue, but the more he said, the lower his voice became, and finally it was inaudible. Two swords, one was the real Life Source Flying Sword and the other was to confuse outsiders, but in front of Yang Chen, it was clear at a glance which sword had been sacrificially refined for a longer time.
"The unique technique of the Zhao Family." Yang Chen said with a smile, "When I was in the mortal world, I once found a batch of ancient books of the Zhao Family, which recorded a lot of things. Could it be that you also bought the refining method from those ancient books? "
"Exactly!" The voice of the shopkeeper of the Poor Acid Pavilion suddenly became louder. As long as he could get away with it, he could say anything.
"It seems that shopkeeper has a good relationship with the major Sect!" Yang Chen sneered and no longer paid attention to him. He turned directly to the front of the shopkeeper of the Lost Star Pavilion, squatted down and looked at him and said, "Shopkeeper, I know you are different from him. Tell me, your real identity, what do you want here?"
"We are from another branch of the Zhao Family." The shopkeeper of the Lost Star Pavilion was obviously much tougher than the one in the Poor Acid Pavilion. He directly admitted his identity as a member of the Zhao Family. "We mainly do business to earn spirit stones. By the way, we search for various relics in various places to see if we can find anything suitable."
