"I will definitely come find you!" Jiang Fengwu said seriously, then proceeded into the Immortal City with her squad members, leaving behind a wisp of fragrance.

Perhaps, forming a Dao Companion relationship with her wouldn’t be a bad choice, given that Jiang Fengwu was exceptionally beautiful, and her ability to cultivate to the late stage of Foundation Establishment as a Loose Cultivator sufficiently proved her aptitude and talent.

If she still harbored feelings for him after her breakthrough to Golden Core, he could get to know her more deeply and try spending some time together.

At this thought, Li Zhirui couldn’t help but laugh silently and shake his head, pushing the matter aside. He called Xiaoqing, exclaiming excitedly, "We’re going home!"

After years of life-and-death experiences, he finally fulfilled his expectations from before he left, obviously unwilling to linger in the outside world any longer.

After all, secluding oneself for Core Formation was no trivial matter; without a protector, it was very likely to be sabotaged by someone with ulterior motives!

There was once a Foundation Establishment Loose Cultivator who, after great difficulty, broke through his shackles, looking forward with much anticipation to the vistas beyond his breakthrough. Yet, he was ruined by a certain enemy.

Not only did his breakthrough fail, but he also perished on the spot, dying under the wrathful thunderbolts!

Li Zhirui certainly did not want to become the subject of others’ gossip, so he would never attempt to seclude himself for a breakthrough in the outside world.

Shriek!

Xiaoqing let out a piercing cry, its massive wings unfolding. With a fierce flap, it covered miles in an instant, appearing to other Cultivators merely as a streak of rushing blue light soaring into the sky, vanishing from their sight in the blink of an eye.

"Why didn’t you chase after him and kill him? Once he’s dead, no one else will compete with you for Jiang Fengwu," said a White-robed Cultivator to Qin Haoming beside him.

"Even if he dies, Jiang Fengwu won’t take a liking to me," Qin Haoming replied with a cold laugh. "I have let go of her now and will return to the Qin Family to begin seclusion."

The White-robed Cultivator felt a surge of excitement and asked while trying to contain himself, "Are you going to attempt Core Formation?"

"Once the obsession in my heart was gone, the bottleneck was effortlessly shattered," Qin Haoming turned to glance at him, a deep resentment lurking in his eyes as he spoke indifferently, "Isn’t this what you all wanted to see?"

After severing his emotional tie to Jiang Fengwu, the first thing he did was to review his past memories, scrutinizing every experience, and he arrived at an unbelievable conclusion.

His affection for Jiang Fengwu was partly due to his own reasons, but even more so because of some manipulations by members of his family!

They had used a type of Spirit Fragrance that could arouse emotions, causing him to develop feelings for Jiang Fengwu, and then used various means to deepen his attachment to her. Failing to attain her had eventually turned into an obsessive fixation.

If not for Li Zhirui’s intervention, Jiang Fengwu would have ended up with only one fate: "sudden death," a drastic measure to shatter his fixation and push him to take the final step.

Naturally, this approach was not reliable, as the impact might be too great and completely destroy Qin Haoming’s resolve for cultivation.

But for the Qin Family, this was hardly a concern, as he was deemed worthless, a failure who couldn’t even overcome the "Emotional Tribulation," unworthy of being cultivated.

The White-robed Cultivator felt not only a lack of concern but actually grew more excited at Qin Haoming’s realization of the family’s schemes and his calm demeanor, for such a person was the talent the family truly desired!

"I will report your performance to the family. You are certain to receive the family’s key support for cultivation!" the White-robed Cultivator declared with certainty.

Qin Haoming, however, seemed very calm, or rather, he didn’t have much attachment to the family anymore, but paradoxically, he couldn’t find a way to leave it.

Because his parents and loved ones were all still within the family, and no matter what, his current achievements were inseparable from the family’s nurturing. Just this cause and effect alone weighed on him so heavily that he couldn’t extricate himself, unless he chose to abandon his own path.

"After following behind me for so long, aren’t you willing to show yourselves yet?" Li Zhirui had Xiaoqing stop in a desolate wilderness and spoke with an icy voice.

He had left the Immortal City for half an hour, and at first, he hadn’t noticed the group of Cultivators behind him. But as Xiaoqing’s speed increased, they had to speed up to keep up, revealing their presence.

Originally, Li Zhirui had not wanted to cause a huge scene, hoping to shake them off with Xiaoqing’s speed, but unexpectedly, they refused to give up and followed.

Suddenly, six Cultivators appeared from behind, four men and two women, among them three were at the late stage of Foundation Establishment, and three at the middle stage.

Faced with such a strong lineup, Li Zhirui didn’t feel panicked at all. Although he might not be able to defeat them, there was no problem ensuring his own safe departure.

"Heard you’re an Alchemist? You must have quite a few Spirit Stones and Spiritual Objects, right?!" The leading Cultivator, eyes filled with greed, said, "Hand over your storage bag, and we’ll let you leave."

Li Zhirui’s expression darkened. Others knew he was an Alchemist aside from Jiang Fengwu’s squad of Cultivators?

What he did not know was that the quality of the Spirit Pills he refined was exceptionally high, fetching prices much higher than those of Spirit Pills on the market.

Therefore, a portion of Cultivators began selling the Spirit Pills they had in hand to earn Spirit Stones, which they used to purchase market Spirit Pills, making a profit from the price difference.

So even though Li Zhirui had not ventured out for several months, he had still attracted the attention of many interested parties. The moment he stepped out today, he was targeted by several groups of Cultivators.

Only, Xiaoqing was too fast, so in the end, only these six people caught up with him. Otherwise, Li Zhirui would have been facing more than just these few people.

"Want my storage bag? Then let’s see if you have the ability to take it!" As soon as he finished speaking, Li Zhirui’s Spell was cast, and a nearly one hundred zhang-long green giant dragon soared through the sky, Vine Dragon Breath shooting out, propelling Exploding Fruits towards them.

These fruits appeared harmless, but they dared not take any chances. After all, coming from the background of Loose Cultivators, if they weren’t careful and cautious, they would not have survived until now.

Each of them used the fastest speed to cast Defensive Spiritual Light, and at the same time, they retreated backwards.

Boom boom boom-

The continuous explosions caused a slight tremble in the surrounding space. If the blasts reached them, the consequences would be unthinkable!

Even though they had moved far enough away, the terrifying power of the explosions still struck fear into their hearts.

But before they could catch their breath, they saw the giant dragon tail swing, striking with the force of a thousand jun towards them.

The cumbersome dragon tail struck with unexpected speed, smashing their outermost Defense Spiritual Light, and the horrific impact sent them flying hundreds of zhang away.

In truth, their strength wasn’t that weak. It was just that Li Zhirui’s consecutive attacks left them no time to react, which allowed him to completely dominate the situation.

However, once they regained their wits and joined forces against him, the tables would turn, and Li Zhirui would end up like they were now.

Therefore, Li Zhirui did not continue to entangle with them any longer. He controlled the Vine Dragon to launch the final attack. After a huge self-detonation, he took the opportunity to shake them off.
