Chapter 252: Be Careful In The Next Life
On the ground, the eight corpses were in a terrible state, each with a gruesome expression.
In the darkness, Su Jingzhen knew that the best way to kill someone instantly was to strike their head.
That’s why there were four or five headless corpses on the scene, with the others being severely mutilated.
After all, with his current power, even without using the secret technique Bloodthirst, a Foundation Establishment cultivator’s body couldn’t withstand his attack.
The scene was extremely bloody.
Seeing this, Su Jingzhen glanced at the black brick in his hand, which still didn’t have a single drop of blood on it.
He then looked at the numerous red and white stains on his body and let out a sigh.
I’m really not a psycho, am I?
On the other hand, Liu Jinfeng opposite him was trembling with fear, his face pale and his breath weak.
He was completely terrified.When Su Jingzhen’s gaze fell on him, his legs turned to jelly, and he directly knelt down.
Ten people in front of Su Jingzhen were no more than mere ants.
Now that he was the only one left, there was no possibility of escape.
Of course, even if he begged for mercy, it was uncertain whether he could keep his life.
“Master, spare my life!”
Liu Jinfeng was completely prostrated on the ground, his fear and humility on full display.
Seeing this, Ye Zhiqiu, Bai Xiu, and Xuening, who were guarding the corridor exit, were shocked and delighted, and they walked over.
With only Liu Jinfeng left, the danger had basically dropped to zero.
However, when Xuening and the others walked over and saw the gruesome state of the corpses, they couldn’t help but feel a sense of discomfort.
When they saw Su Jingzhen covered in blood, holding a weapon, he looked like a bloodthirsty demon.
Even Xuening felt a hint of fear when looking at Su Jingzhen.
Su Jingzhen knew that some things might be difficult to explain.
But this wasn’t the time to explain them.
He coldly gazed at Liu Jinfeng, who was prostrated on the ground.
“Speak, tell me everything you know!”
When Su Jingzhen spoke, Liu Jinfeng lifted his head and looked at him with a glimmer of hope in his eyes.
“If… if I tell you everything, Master, will you spare my life?
I won’t participate in any Feng family affairs from now on.
After I leave, I’ll completely leave Yunmeng City and won’t reveal any information about the master.”
When Liu Jinfeng said this, his tone was filled with expectation.
However, Su Jingzhen’s mouth curled up into a cold smile.
“Tell me everything you know, and I might not kill you!”
As they spoke, Su Jingzhen directly pointed one hand to the sky and one hand to the ground, giving a highest-level oath.
Seeing this, Liu Jinfeng’s eyes revealed a hint of joy.
He was about to open his mouth.
But at this time, Ye Zhiqiu suddenly said, “Wait a minute!”
Her voice was so sudden that even Su Jingzhen was slightly surprised.
Then, Ye Zhiqiu took out a black stone resembling a shell from her storage ring.
The stone had a mysterious aura on it.
Ye Zhiqiu looked at Su Jingzhen and explained, “No matter what he says next, even if we know about it, once we leave, it’s just verbal and there’s no evidence.
We can’t guarantee that the people behind won’t deny it.
This is an Initial Sound spirit stone, which can record voices and serve as evidence.”
When Su Jingzhen heard Ye Zhiqiu’s words, his eyes showed some surprise.
This was a recording spirit tool in the cultivation world, which was quite interesting.
Then, Ye Zhiqiu infused her spiritual power into the Initial Sound spirit stone and nodded at Su Jingzhen.
“Speak.”
Facing the Initial Sound spirit stone, Liu Jinfeng was somewhat unnatural.
But for the sake of his life, he still directly opened his mouth: “It was Feng Mingyan, the young master of the Feng family, who sent us here.
The day before the Alchemy Master Conference began, the young master used the family head token of Feng Baozhao to open a passage to this place and arranged for us to come in.
He told us that if Su Jingzhen and Xuening didn’t enter the top three of the Alchemy Master Conference and didn’t enter the ancestral hall, then it would be fine.
He told us to hide here and wait for the matter to be settled, and then he would send us out.
But if Su Jingzhen and Xuening entered this place, then no matter who accompanied them, they would all be killed without exception!”
“When Master Feng was talking to himself, we also heard him say that since the Great Elder wanted to favor Feng Qingya again, he would not give her any chance.”
When Su Jingzhen and the others heard this, their hearts suddenly turned cold.
Su Jingzhen had previously thought that Feng Mingyan was just a foolish and arrogant young master.
But he had never expected that Feng Mingyan had made such a sinister and meticulous plan in the dark.
He had also never thought that this guy could be so crazy.
If it weren’t for Su Jingzhen reaching the Flesh Body Golden Embryo, Feng Mingyan would have really succeeded.
Su Jingzhen’s heart felt a sense of admiration again. In the cultivation world, those who could obtain a certain status were indeed not fools.
Perhaps the cultivation world was also a place where one had to be ruthless.
As long as one is ruthless enough, they can always get what they want.
If the four of them had really died here, they wouldn’t know how Feng Mingyan or the Feng family would escape.
But they knew that Feng Mingyan must have already thought of everything.
This was a terrifying and meticulous plan.
Feng Baozhao’s family head token, which could open the passage to the ancestral hall’s underground layer, was something that Su Jingzhen and the others could understand.
After all, he was still a family head, even if it was just a proxy, and he still had some basic rights.
And in this case, the craziness wouldn’t just be limited to Feng Mingyan.
Ye Zhiqiu and the others felt a sense of astonishment, as if they had unknowingly grasped a major secret of the Feng family.
Su Jingzhen’s mouth still had a cold smile, and his gaze turned back to Liu Jinfeng: “Is there anything else? Tell me everything you know.”
“I only know these things, Master.
As for other matters, Young Master Feng Mingyan didn’t mention them to us, and we were just following orders.
I beg for mercy, Master.”
As Liu Jinfeng said this, he cried again.
To survive, one would do anything, no matter how humiliating it was.
“Alright, since that’s the case, there’s no use in keeping you alive.”
Su Jingzhen’s mouth curled up into a smile again.
With his current appearance, this smile was no different from that of a demon.
Liu Jinfeng’s heart suddenly trembled: “Merciful Lord, you… you promised not to kill me.
Do you want to go back on your heavenly oath?”
As soon as Liu Jinfeng said this, Su Jingzhen laughed again: “So, I didn’t say I would kill you.
But earlier, you insulted Miss Ye, and that’s already a capital offense.
My heavenly oath has nothing to do with MIss Ye and others.”
As Su Jingzhen spoke, he directly put away the black brick.
“That’s it for this life, be more careful in the next one.”
After saying this, Su Jingzhen took a step back.
Ye Zhiqiu’s long sword flashed, and her killing intent had already reached its peak, making it impossible for her to show any mercy.
The sword light flashed, and before Liu Jinfeng could beg for mercy, his head was already flying high into the air.
