Chapter 76 - Immortal Fate Of Longevity: Starting From Taking Care of Fellow Daoist Wife

Chapter 76: Flames of Revenge After leaving Bacity for a long journey, Xia Changge finally reverted to his former appearance. Originally, he had intended to stay in Bacity and wait for Tai Ming's lackeys to return one by one so he could deal with them. But after giving it some thought, he decided to first inform Xiao Wan of the important information he had gathered. After all, compared to killing those lackeys, it was obvious that dealing with the ultimate culprit was the most important! The grudge between him and the Tai family was irreconcilable, and Xia Changge had no intention of reconciling anyway. When he arrived at the Xiao family, Xia Changge not only brought out Tai Ming's body but also revealed the forbidden techniques practiced by the Tai family and their specific location. The Tai family used children with spiritual roots and even harvested various organs from wandering cultivators to make bloody pills for their children with spiritual roots to cultivate. This would help them quickly reach the ninth level of Qi Refining and significantly reduce the time they spent stuck at the ninth level of Qi Refining, allowing them to quickly advance to the Foundation Building stage. Moreover, even if their bodies were injured after failing to break through to the Foundation Building stage, they could recover quickly! The Tai family could truly be considered "cannibals." It was hard for Xia Changge to understand how they could stomach such things. Seeing Tai Ming's miserable state, Xiao Wan was also greatly surprised. He died at the ninth level of Qi Refining? "How did you kill him in the end?" Xiao Wan couldn't help but ask the most burning question in her heart. "I shamelessly chose to ambush him. This man has been causing trouble for those ordinary women in Bacity. His internal armor has already weakened, and he barely had any defenses. Taking advantage of this opportunity, I launched a surprise attack and killed him," Xia Changge explained briefly, then handed over Tai Ming's storage bag. But Xiao Wan stopped him. "If the information you provided is true, then the benefits our Xiao family can gain outweigh that of Tai Ming. You should keep it. The next step will depend on what my mother decides," she said. Xia Changge didn't insist. Tai Ming's wealth couldn't possibly be insignificant, and he definitely had accumulated a thousand pieces of spiritual stones. "I still need to avenge my disciples. Tai Ming brought four executioners, and I'm going to kill them all. Therefore, I need to borrow Miss' treasure for two days," Xia Changge said. Time was tight. Xia Changge had to quickly travel back and forth between Huaying and Bacity so as not to miss any time. With the Five Gold Soul Bells, Xia Changge would be able to deal with enemies more easily, so he naturally didn't want to continue exerting so much effort. Although the "Startling Eye Calamity" had a similar effect, the casting requirements were higher, and the effect was slightly inferior to that of the Five Gold Soul Bells. "Go ahead, but be careful," Xiao Wan said, looking at Xia Changge's serious expression, without trying to stop him. Since Xia Changge was able to kill Tai Ming at the ninth level of Qi Refining, even if it was done through an ambush, it meant that he had employed quite a few treacherous methods. She wanted to see how far the fury of this master of the Xia family could burn. Xia Changge first returned to his own residence and hung Tai Ming's body on a cross. While An Ruoshui kept watch, he went to explain to the children what had recently happened. Because Xia Changge himself didn't have the courage to face the heartbroken appearance of those young children. Xia Changge had all his disciples take turns using daggers to cut and vent their anger on Tai Ming's body until it was truly mutilated. Only then did he allow An Ruoshui to take the body and feed it to the dogs! This way, perhaps those children could be considered to have avenged themselves! He himself didn't waste any more time there and hurried to Bacity to wait. Tai Ming had five executioners under his command, and although they left at the same time, they returned at different times due to their different destinations. Because one of them had already been killed by Xia Changge, the remaining four, like matryoshka dolls, returned one by one. And they also left this world one by one. The tens of thousands of living beings in Bacity witnessed their once revered Immortal Masters being struck down from the sky, their heads cut off, and their bodies left lifeless. This greatly changed the perspectives of many mortals. Xia Changge looked at the heads stored in the bags of the four Tai family lackeys and took a deep breath. He found several excellent painters in Bacity and had them draw the portraits of these victims. Xia Changge's disciples were still children, and he didn't want to expose them to such tragic scenes. Using drawings as substitutes was the best method. After confirming the identities of these people's families, Xia Changge took a dozen children with him and went home to pay a visit. "Ten low-grade spiritual artifacts, two mid-grade spiritual artifacts..." After dealing with the matters at hand, Xia Changge roughly surveyed his spoils. There were twelve artifacts, but Xia Changge didn't have any use for them. He intended to keep these artifacts and give them as compensation to his disciples who had paid with blood and tears once they reached the Qi Refining stage. Their parents trusted him enough to entrust their children to him. And he... In the bags of the seven high-level Qi Refining cultivators were a total of 4,200 spiritual stones. This was already a terrifying number. Xia Changge planned to use half of the stones to purchase spiritual objects for the children to assist them in their cultivation. As for the remaining half, Xia Changge borrowed it to use as capital for purchasing the materials needed to make Gathering Qi Pills. He really just borrowed it. If he could really refine Gathering Qi Pills as a result, he would provide them for free to his disciples. Xia Changge went to the Xiao family, purchased dozens of properties, mostly in the mortal area. He would discuss with his disciples what to do if the families of other children were willing to move into the city. Xia Changge would naturally arrange for them properly. After handling the matters for his disciples' families, five days had already passed. Xia Changge arrived at the Duobao Trading Company. "Long time no see, my friend. You're a rare guest," Zhang Chuan, the shopkeeper, welcomed Xia Changge with a beaming smile. "Friend, do you have anything related to poison here?" Xia Changge wanted to make his Hidden Needle technique more powerful, so he planned to acquire some poison. He had noticed that as his opponent's level grew higher, the drawbacks of his Hidden Needle technique became more pronounced. Previously, if Tai Ming had internal armor protecting him, Xia Changge's Hidden Needle technique wouldn't have been effective. He wanted to improve his strength, not only by breaking through to the eighth level of Qi Refining himself, but also by "poisoning." Zhang Chuan's smile suddenly grew even brighter, and he hurriedly said, "Friend, do you need poison for ingestion or for applying on weapons?" Xia Changge replied in a low voice, "Primarily for applying on weapons, but also some for ingestion. It must be capable of affecting cultivators at the eighth level of Qi Refining or above, and if possible, it should affect Foundation Building stage cultivators too." Zhang Chuan signaled for Xia Changge to wait and then returned to the storage room to retrieve the five items Xia Changge required, explaining them one by one. "This is a poison powder made by grinding the venomous teeth and venom of a First Stage Azure Snake together. Although the Azure Snake is only at the first stage, it contains potent venom. If a cultivator at the eighth or ninth level of Qi Refining takes too much at once, they will die. It is priced at 36 spiritual stones." "This is the Seven Absolute Poison, formulated by a Second Grade Pill Master using seven types of poisonous substances mixed with rare poisonous herbs. Even Foundation Building stage cultivators who come into contact with it will experience excruciating pain for several hours. For Qi Refining stage cultivators... unless they have a high-grade antidote pill, they will definitely die within half an hour. It is priced at 450 spiritual stones." "This is the Mind-Controlling Pill made by a Second Grade Pill Master... " ... (End of chapter)
