Chapter 926: Undetected By Anyone

After a series of inquiries, only then did Tang Xiu find out the reason. It turned out that these four Ghost Generals obtained an ancient secret art manual in the Underworld, from which they learned how to create a channel between their world and the mortal world. The end of the tunnel coincidentally ended up in the Lian Family’s place.

“So, that Underworld Great Array outside and the Netherworld one inside were laid out by the four of you, and you also imparted the Underworld cultivation art to the Lians?” asked Tang Xiu with a heavy voice

“Yes, and please spare our lives, Venerable Immortal.”

The two Ghost Generals were full of trepidation and were scared stiff as they replied.

Tang Xiu shook his head. He no longer cared about it after clearly figuring out the root of the matter. He turned to look at Gu Yan’er and faintly said, “Finish everything here!”

“Alright!”

Gu Yan’er’s eyes were gleaming with killing intent. Her mind moved, and she instantly killed the two Ghost Generals as well as the Lian Family’s 49 ancestors. Be it the Ghost Generals or the Lian ancestors, all were the same in her eyes—ants. She had her share of massacring countless people in the past. Nothing would make her flinch.

“Expand your search to comb through every soul of each Lian Family’s member” said Tang Xiu. “Completely erase any of them who practice any cultivation art from the Underworld. Do the same to those martial artists under this family too.”

“What about the weak; the elderly, women, and children?” asked Gu Yan’er.

“Spare those who had no ability to participate in all of the wicked deeds carried out by the Lians,” answered Tang Xiu indifferently. “Remember, we must not kill any innocents, but never let the sinners free whose hands are stained by blood.”

In but a few minutes, all those who had practiced martial arts in the Lian Family’s manor silently met their maker, for a total of dozens of martial artists.. Gu Yan’er even conducted a thorough search on their souls to find out the situation of other Lian Family’s clansmen. Ultimately, tens of other clansmen of the Lians in every part of the country were all killed without anyone noticing.

Certainly, Gu Yan’er also did a thorough cleaning up regarding the Underworld Great Array as well as the Netherworld one, including the altars and the blood pools. She also destroyed the tunnel.

“Alright. Let’s head back,” said Tang Xiu in a heavy voice after Gu Yan’er completed her tasks and handled all the problems.

In a flash, Tang Xiu and Gu Yan’er, as well as Miao Wentang and Mo Awu’s team who had been waiting in the vicinity near the Lian Family’s residence, all returned to the Miao Family’s residence. They arrived precisely at the living room of the villa belonging to Miao Wentang.

“Has everything been done, Brother Tang?”

Miao Wentang, who had been waiting anxiously for the news, found that everyone had returned back. He asked with a puzzled face immediately after they arrived.

“Everything’s been solved.” Tang Xiu solved and said. “The malicious cancer that was the Lians has been completely rooted out. However, there is something you need to deal with.”

“Me doing some things is not a problem, but did you say you’ve completely cleaned up everything?” asked Miao Wentang with obvious disbelief on his face. “How did you do it? Didn’t you just enter their residence?”

“Brother Maio, the Lians who have practiced the cultivation art of the Underworld have been killed by us,” said Tang Xiu with a faint smile. “All martial artists under them were included. No longer will there be a Lian Family in the Occult Sect in the future. Any surviving members will decline by themselves.”

With a shocked face, Miao Wentang shot a look at both Tang Xiu and Gu Yan’er. Especially the latter. Unprecedented shock struck him after knowing how powerful she was. After a long silence, he then said, “Then what is it that you want me to deal with, Brother Tang?”

“Well, the Miao Family will be the scapegoat. You’re to spread the news that you’ve removed the Lians,” said Tang Xiu.” It’s not all without benefits, though. Their industries will be yours, except those still being managed by the surviving members.”

“Can you lend me Awu and his brothers for several days?” requested Miao Wentang with hesitation. “The Lians are from the Occult Sec, and if some of the other families have a good relationship with them, they will definitely use the pretext to attack my family, so I need some experts to help me.”

Tang Xiu gave his consent with a nod. He then looked at Mo Awu and the rest, “You guys will all stay in Ning City for some time to carry out all the arrangements by Brother Miao. Stay here until all the issues related to the Lian Family have been completely dealt with. You can return to Shanghai to find me afterward.”

“Understood!” respectfully replied Mo Awu’s team in unison.

Suddenly, Xue Yu interjected, “Tang Xiu, I want to go to Jingmen Island.”

For a moment, however, Tang Xiu hesitated. He then looked at the smiling Gu Yan’er before he nodded and said, “Yan’er, Xue Yu wants to go to Jingmen Island, so bring her with you when you go back! Although she has obtained Dao Master Guai’s inheritance and has had her cultivation improved rapidly, she still does not have the ability to control her own power. Do well to help her control it. Also, it’s best if she can progress in her state of mind as well.”

“No worries, I know what to do.” Gu Yan’er nodded with a slight smile.

After some time, Tang Xiu had returned back to Shanghai since Gu Yan’er sent him back there. The two females, however, didn’t stay long and went directly to Jingmen Island.

Bluestar Villa Complex.

Tang Xiu had taken a shower and was recollecting everything that happened recently. There was a wry and bitter smile on his handsome face, however. He had gone through troubles and hard work to research the Six Starlights Array and was finally able to open that Immortal Trove, yet the result was meant for someone else—he had even taken the risk of having his identity and whereabouts leaked.

“Haih, let’s drop it. Besides, it’s not like the results were obtained by some outsiders anyway.”
