"I also don't think it was you, father. It seems like Senior Brother Luo was the one who killed Duanmu Zhao and the others."
"Senior Brother Luo's means are too shocking, to be able to kill a Level Nine Golden Immortal. But, who is helping him in the dark? With Duanmu Zhao's cultivation and strength, it would be difficult for him to find a match among Level Nine Golden Immortals. Only a Peerless Immortal expert could kill him quickly. "
"In our Nangong City, other than father, there are only a few Supreme Elders of the big families who are Peerless Immortals. It's impossible for them to help Senior Brother Luo. This means that this Peerless Immortal expert isn't from our city."
"The only Peerless Immortals that have recently appeared in our Nangong City are the Elders sent by the four big Chambers of Commerce. Could it be that one of them helped him?"
Nangong Xiaodie analyzed with a serious face, as if she was very interested in Luo Ping's' helper '.
"Don't worry about it. Who cares who helped him? Duanmu Zhao is dead anyway. This person has helped us a lot."
"Alright, if you don't have anything else to do, go and prepare yourself. There are still three auctions to attend."
Nangong Ting said.
Nangong Ting wasn't interested in the auctions held by the four big Chambers of Commerce in Nangong City. Therefore, he let Nangong Xiaodie be in charge of leading the family's experts to participate in the auctions.
"Father, wait, I have something to ask you."
Nangong Xiaodie hurriedly said when she saw that Nangong Ting was about to close his eyes and rest.
"Father, the whole Nangong City is saying that you helped Senior Brother Luo kill Duanmu Zhao. Now, I know that you didn't do it. It was Senior Brother Luo who implicated you. You won't be angry and take it out on Senior Brother Luo, right?"
Nangong Xiaodie asked.
"Hmm? Xiaodie, you seem to be very concerned about Luo Ping. Don't tell me you've fallen for him? "
Nangong Ting revealed a strange smile when he heard this.
"Father, what are you thinking? Senior Brother Luo and I are from the same sect. It's natural for me to be concerned about him. It's not what you think."
Nangong Xiaodie said embarrassedly.
"Haha, okay, okay, okay. It's not what I want, it's not what I want."
"My little Die has grown up. She can make her own decisions and make her own judgments. As her father, I can't always intervene in my daughter's affairs."
"Don't worry, I won't vent my anger on Luo Ping because of this matter. The cultivators of the Immortal City can talk about it however they like."
Nangong Ting laughed heartily as he spoke.
"I already said that Father is the most magnanimous. Then I'll take my leave. Father, bye bye."
Nangong Xiaodie smiled and left the room. Nangong Ting looked at his daughter's departing figure with a doting smile on his face. Then, he closed his eyes and began to meditate.
…
"These cultivators really know how to make connections. I hope Senior Nangong won't blame me for this."
In the room, Luo Ping shook his head helplessly and muttered.
He also did not expect that the matter of killing Duanmu Zhao and the others would be linked to Nangong Ting. Moreover, each and every one of them spoke as if it was true. If he was not the one involved, he probably would have believed them.
He was now a little worried that these rumors would anger Nangong Ting and bring him trouble.
It was only when Nangong Xiaodie appeared and informed Luo Ping of Nangong Ting's attitude that Luo Ping finally relaxed.
On the third day after Duanmu Zhao's death, a grand elder of the Duanmu Clan came out of seclusion. He oversaw the Duanmu Clan while preparing to investigate the cause of Duanmu Zhao's death.
This naturally attracted Nangong Ting's special attention. He had been paying close attention to the Duanmu Clan's situation, afraid that the peerless immortal of the Duanmu Clan would suddenly make a move.
At the same time, under Nangong Xiaodie's repeated requests, Nangong Ting had no choice but to agree and let Luo Ping temporarily hide in the Nangong Clan. After all, Duanmu Zhao had been killed because he tried to stop Luo Ping. If the grand elder of the Duanmu Clan wanted to find out the truth, he would definitely find Luo Ping.
When the time came …
However, if the grand elder of the Duanmu Clan was enraged, he might just kill Luo Ping. Therefore, it was necessary for Luo Ping to hide for a while.
A few days later, one of the Four Great Merchant Associations, Gold Money House, held an auction at the Nangong City branch as scheduled. This time, Luo Ping also led the people of Min City to participate in the auction and bought a large amount of treasures.
However, after this auction, no one dared to stop Luo Ping. No one wanted to be killed for no reason like Duanmu Zhao and the others.
In the following days, the remaining two branches of the Great Merchant Associations held their auctions one after another. After the last auction, many cultivators left Nangong City with their factions. Some gained a lot, while others were extremely disappointed.
Under Min Shixiong's lead, the people of Min City directly returned to Min City. As for Luo Ping, Liao Chengyun, and the others, they returned to the Exquisite Divine Sect and continued to cultivate.
Due to the Southern Palace's secret interference, although the grand elder of the Duanmu Clan wanted to capture Luo Ping, he didn't have the chance to do so and could only give up.
Soon, the Duanmu Clan announced that Duanmu Bo would take over the position of the Clan Head. There was no ceremony, so no one saw Duanmu Bo's figure.
… …
Exquisite Divine Sect, Xinghe Peak.
The moment Luo Ping returned, he entered the cave. After setting up the array, he entered the Gate of Xuantian's Heaven's Gate space.
"Xiao Yingzi, tell me quickly. What method can I use to increase my cultivation speed?"
As soon as he appeared, Luo Ping couldn't wait to ask the void.
"There are actually many methods. According to your current cultivation situation, I have already chosen a suitable method."
"However, this method is not so easy to succeed. Not only does it require luck, but it also requires an extremely strong soul power as support."
"Although your soul power is already very strong, this method is still very dangerous and painful. I can't guarantee that you will succeed."
Wu Feiying's voice rang out in the void. Then, her petite figure appeared in front of Luo Ping.
"Do you think I haven't endured enough pain along the way of cultivation? When have I not persevered? I believe that this time, I will be able to face it calmly. "
"As for the danger, if there is no danger on the path of cultivation, how can one grow and improve? I am not worried about this. Moreover, with a Saint realm expert like you here, I feel much more at ease. "
Luo Ping said solemnly. While expressing his firm belief, he didn't forget to flatter Wu Feiying.
"Don't flatter me. I won't fall for it."
"Although what you said is very reasonable, and you have experienced a lot of danger and pain, this time is indeed very dangerous. You still have to be mentally prepared."
"Once this method succeeds, I believe that your cultivation speed will increase several times. This way, your cultivation speed will definitely surpass that of the Human Emperor boy."
Wu Feiying said after rolling her eyes at Luo Ping.
Hearing this, Luo Ping was surprised. If he could increase his cultivation speed several times, then his cultivation speed would indeed surpass that of the Human Emperor Jiang Zheng.
"Xiao Yingzi, then don't keep me in suspense. Hurry up and tell me what the method is."
Luo Ping couldn't wait to ask again.
"The method I am talking about is a kind of doppelganger cultivation technique called the 'Thousand Souls Doppelganger Technique'. When cultivated to the extreme, you can split into a thousand doppelgangers. Each doppelganger has the same cultivation as the original body."
"This doppelganger technique is achieved by cutting the soul of a cultivator. In other words, for every doppelganger, you need to cut a part of the soul. A thousand doppelgangers, you need to cut the soul a thousand times."
"With the strength of your soul power, cutting a few times won't be a problem. I estimate that if you cut more than ten times, you won't be able to hold on. So, do what you can."
Wu Feiying explained her method, which turned out to be a doppelganger cultivation technique. Through her introduction and explanation, Luo Ping had a full understanding of the Thousand Souls Doppelganger Technique.
"A thousand doppelgangers!"
"It's really terrifying. If I really succeed in cultivating it, isn't it equivalent to having a thousand helpers of the same cultivation as myself? Who can contend against me in battle?"
"Even if I can only split into ten doppelgangers for the time being, this is completely enough. Well, Xiao Yingzi, hurry up and teach me the cultivation technique."
Luo Ping sighed and asked Wu Feiying for it.
Seeing this, Wu Feiying directly released a wisp of soul power and shot it towards Luo Ping's head. Luo Ping immediately received the wisp of soul power and quickly read the contents of the soul power.
"According to the method on the cultivation technique, you can cut the soul and split into doppelgangers. When the doppelgangers are split, you can cultivate."
"Because these doppelgangers are all split from the soul, it can be said that they are a part of your body. Therefore, when they are split, their cultivation will be the same as your cultivation. It's just that they only have cultivation but no strong fighting power."
"When these doppelgangers begin to cultivate, as the doppelgangers' cultivation increases, your power will gradually increase. This is another magical part of the Thousand Souls Doppelganger Technique."
"In addition to cultivation, you can also impart some fighting power to these doppelgangers so that they can become your helpers."
Wu Feiying said again.
Hearing this, Luo Ping nodded solemnly. At this moment, he was completely immersed in the cultivation technique of the Thousand Souls Doppelganger Technique. He was very satisfied with this doppelganger Technique.
The Thousand Souls Doppelganger Technique was to split the soul into doppelgangers. Each doppelganger was a soul body, so the cultivation speed was naturally very fast.
This doppelganger was still different from Luo Ping's Rock Spirit Doppelganger. The Rock Spirit Doppelganger was originally separated from his soul by Luo Ping and integrated into the Ten Thousand Years Rock Spirit. It was not a pure soul body, but an independent body.
When the Rock Spirit Doppelganger cultivated, its cultivation also increased independently. In fact, it was similar to a refined weapon.
"Well, you can slowly cut your soul. If you have any questions, feel free to call me."
After finishing her words, Wu Feiying disappeared. Seeing this, Luo Ping's face revealed a determined expression. Then, he sat cross-legged on the ground and prepared to cut his soul.
