Rebuilding the Immortal Cultivator Clan
Chapter 732 - 738: Punishing Kill

Fleeing in panic, the demon cultivators naturally thought the farther they got, the safer they would be, preferably in a place where the local powers weren't too strong.

That way, they could use the local cultivators to quickly recover from their injuries.

And Wanxian Province, over ten thousand miles away from Xuanfa State, seemed like a great destination.

It was sufficiently remote, and the majority of the local forces were Golden Core and Foundation Establishment; the only Nascent Soul family, the Li family, was situated on an island thousands of miles away.

By the time the Li family reacted, they and their companions would have long since vanished without a trace.

So, a group of demon cultivators who fled to Wanxian Province didn't continue to flee, but began to pillage and plunder, planning a quick looting spree before their departure.

However, what the demon cultivators had never expected was that the Li family had already made preparations. Although they suffered minor losses due to the sudden attack, they quickly launched their retaliation.

Occupying the advantageous terrain, utilizing formations and manpower from Immortal City and the Marketplace, and considering the demon cultivators were injured while the cultivators from the Li family not only outnumbered them but were also in perfect condition, the Li family took absolute advantage as soon as they made a move.

The demon cultivators were defeated and retreated in disarray, causing many of them to flee once again.

Meanwhile, on Wanxian Island, news of the demon cultivator invasion and battle reports had been received instantly. Knowing that the Li family was safe, Xiaoqing then planned to set off for Xuanfa State to aid Li Zhirui.

But just then, an urgent message from a Nascent Soul demon cultivator suddenly arrived.

Xiaoqing had no choice but to give up her previous intention and decided she would attend to the demon cultivator before anything else.

After all, Jiang Fengwu was needed to preside over the Great Array on Wanxian Island in case of emergency, and Da Qing was in seclusion; as for Feng Peng, her strength was slightly insufficient.

"Xiaoqing, take Feng Peng with you and let her help you with the formation,"

Xiaoqing frowned, clearly disagreeing, and said, "Aunt Fengwu, if you're the only one left to defend the clan and other Nascent Souls attack, it could be troublesome!"

"We have the Island Defense Array, and even if three to five Nascent Souls come, they won't be able to break through forcefully right away. If you and Feng Peng act together and resolve the matter with the demon cultivator quickly, then return, that will be fine," Jiang Fengwu insisted.

She didn't believe anyone would attack the Li family at this time, and thought it would be good for Feng Peng to fight a demon cultivator to gain a deeper understanding and avoid being at a disadvantage in future encounters.

"Alright," said Xiaoqing, no longer objecting. She grabbed Feng Peng and flew towards the location where the Nascent Soul demon cultivator had appeared.

Both being wind attribute Spirit Beasts, they moved extremely fast. In just a moment, they arrived at the Marketplace where the clan member had spotted the Nascent Soul demon cultivator.

But they were a step too late; the entire Marketplace had already been reduced to ruins, the broken flesh amidst the black and gray rubble shockingly conspicuous.

"Damn it!"

Xiaoqing growled in frustration.

"Keep calm!" Feng Peng soothed her and then closed her eyes, tilting her head to listen to the sounds of the wind—she was using her innate divine power, Wind Listening.

It was said that at its most profound level, this divine power could pick up sounds from tens of thousands of miles away through the wind. However, with Feng Peng's current cultivation level, she could just manage to hear from about a thousand miles around.

And because it consumed a lot of energy, she rarely used it.

"Found him!"

A few breaths later, Feng Peng suddenly opened her eyes and said, "That demon cultivator is attacking a Golden Core family three hundred miles east of here."

Upon hearing this, Xiaoqing transformed into her true form without saying a word, lifting Feng Peng onto her back. With a powerful flap of her wings, she left a trailing image behind, and in an instant, she reappeared tens of miles away.

If they couldn't even protect their affiliated forces, where would the Li family's face be?!

So Xiaoqing unleashed his fastest speed, and within just over a dozen breaths, he had appeared beside the Demon Cultivator.

Looking at the Clan Protection Array that was on the verge of collapse and about to be breached, both Xiaoqing and Feng Peng breathed a sigh of relief—fortunately, they hadn't arrived too late this time.

It was just that the family had resisted desperately, and the Nascent Soul Demon Cultivator was also heavily wounded; they couldn't have held out until the two of them arrived.

"We are saved! Two Spirit Monarchs from the Li family have come!" the Cultivators inside the Formation burst into cheers.

The so-called Spirit Monarchs referred to a vassal force of the Li family, an honorific for fourth-order Spiritual Beasts.

"Damn it!" The Demon Cultivator's face darkened horribly—he was so close! If only he could have devoured the Cultivators of this family, his injuries would have completely healed!

By then, two mere early fourth-order flat-haired beasts wouldn't stand a chance against him, and as long as Li Zhirui didn't return, he wouldn't foolishly attack Wanxian Island. Then, he could turn Wanxian Province upside down, and no one would be able to do anything about him!

Unfortunately, with his severe injuries not yet healed, he was no match for the two Spiritual Beasts before him.

In fact, his decision to act against Wanxian Province was after careful consideration; he knew that Li Zhirui had gone to Xuanfa State to attend an auction and would certainly bring his Contracted Spirit Beast for safety.

At that time, only Jiang Fengwu and a single fourth-order Spiritual Beast remained to guard the Li family.

To ensure the safety of Wanxian Island, at most, they would dispatch that fourth-order Spiritual Beast. If that were the case, he'd have nothing to fear, and he might even turn the tables on it.

But he hadn't anticipated that the Li family would have two fourth-order Spiritual Beasts!

This unforeseen event plunged him into great danger!

"How dare you lay hands on the Li family members! Die!"

Xiaoqing roared in fury, his wings flinging out two green tornados that raced and whistled forth, their immense destructive force making the Demon Cultivator dare not meet them head-on. He hurriedly dodged to a distance, then turned into a streak of black light as he fled in disgrace.

And that was Xiaoqing's true intent!

The Clan Protection Array of this Golden Core family was on the brink of collapse. If they were to battle nearby, the Formation would definitely not hold, leading to tremendous loss and casualties.

They had to change the battlefield, so Xiaoqing and Feng Peng could freely exert their full strength to kill the Demon Cultivator.

As for the risk of the Demon Cultivator escaping? As if their racial talents were just for show, especially against a heavily injured Demon Cultivator.

Two streaks of green light closely followed, quickly catching up to the Demon Cultivator.

"Die!"

This time, a massive swarm of fierce winds materialized out of nowhere and surged towards the Demon Cultivator from all directions.

And Feng Peng also made his move, creating a Wind Prison, not giving the Demon Cultivator any chance to continue his escape.

"A tiger, fallen on the plains, is bullied by dogs, you two flat-haired beasts! Are you not afraid I'll fight to the death and drag you down with me?" The Demon Cultivator, who had barely survived the assault, became extremely wretched, his exposed skin covered with wounds, his eyes filled with venomous hatred as he looked at them and spoke with resentment.

"Just you? Dream on!"

Xiaoqing didn't wish to waste more words on him and immediately signaled to Feng Peng to launch another attack. As the green light covered the sky, the next instant, it began firing countless Green Feather Blades like a dense, unstoppable barrage.

"Aaah!"

The defense held by the Demon Cultivator only lasted for a moment before being engulfed by the green light, and from within came a series of pitiful screams, so agonizing that they sent shivers down one's spine.

But Xiaoqing did not stop there. The green light attacked relentlessly for a full quarter of an hour, eventually dispersing due to the exhaustion of Spiritual Energy.
