Chapter 134 Lü Liang, if you don't go home soon, when will you?
On the mountain path, Lü Qian carried Wang Ye in one hand, with Bai He following behind, walking slowly against the flow of people.
The crowds slid past him on both sides, and people unconsciously made way for him.
Among the crowd, some people curiously sized up this young Taoist priest who, despite his youth, had already gained considerable fame. Many others lowered their heads and brows, not daring to meet the gaze of this young Master Lü. Still others hid at the back of the crowd or even scurried into corners.
A flash of golden fire appeared in Lü Qian's eyes, and a shimmering gold-red glow shone in his deep pupils. Various colors of Qi swept past his eyes among the crowd, many of whom had disguised themselves.
When those people saw Lü Qian, they all turned away and avoided him. Lü Qian knew perfectly well who these people were.
"They said they would sweep away the demons over sixty years, so how could they stop after only one year?"
Shaking Wang Ye in his hand, Lü Qian sighed inwardly, "Quanxing, you really are a species that springs up again after being blown away by the spring breeze."
"Senior brother, don't shake, I'm feeling really dizzy."
Wang Ye's struggling voice rang out, "Junior brother, I'm extremely weak right now."
"Weak? Now that you've lost half your life, consider it a reminder that warlocks aren't omniscient or omnipotent. Act according to your abilities; the consequences are far more complex than you think."
A sorcerer can't calculate everything. Even if you've mastered the top-tier "Feng Hou Qi Men" technique, you're still just a mortal sorcerer. The Luo Tian Grand Ceremony was such a huge undertaking, and the half-life you lost was a lesson you learned.
Lu Qian silently pushed Wang Ye to the side, "We'll be there soon, just bear with it... hmm?"
Before he could finish speaking, Lü Qian stopped in his tracks, his eyes flashing with golden light as he stared at a figure not far away for a moment, then chuckled meaningfully.
"Oh, I've run into someone I know, Junior Brother Wang Ye. You should go back first."
After saying that, he casually tossed Wang Ye aside and disappeared from the spot in a flash.
"Layman over there, you look very familiar to me. You resemble a cousin of mine who has been lost for a long time."
Lu Qian strode forward, his figure flashing as he walked towards a fierce-looking, burly man wearing sunglasses in the crowd.
Although his steps were neither hurried nor slow, they seemed to shrink the distance between people. By the time the crowd recovered from Lü Qian's teasing voice, he had already arrived in front of the burly man.
Lu Qian extended his right hand, his movements as effortless and comfortable as if he were catching a chick. He relaxed his hand and reached for the burly man's shoulder.
"Layman, please don't leave. Let me take a closer look."
His face always wore a gentle smile, and his easygoing aura remained unchanged, like a calm and deep abyss, yet everyone present could feel the turbulent currents hidden beneath the surface.
Although his words were humble and casual, there was an unyielding firmness hidden beneath.
In everyone's eyes, the burly, fierce-looking man looked like a child who had secretly dressed up as an adult to cause trouble, but was caught red-handed, his expression filled with fear.
"No...don't come any closer!"
The burly man turned to dodge, but in his eyes, the right hand kept getting bigger and bigger, and the increasingly close figure of the young Taoist priest gradually overlapped with another figure.
The illusory figure was Lu Ci, the old emperor of Lujia Village, and the Taoist priest in front of them was the village's recognized next "emperor".
The emperor holds the power of life and death over the people under his rule!
He could already imagine the torture he would face if he were caught and taken back.
Overwhelmed by fear, he forgot the weakness of the Domain Poison disguised as a weapon and couldn't help but mobilize his own Qi, wanting to use it to escape.
"Whoosh—"
As the Qi within his body circulated, the burly man's appearance, like snow meeting the blazing sun, instantly turned into wisps of smoke and dissipated into the void.
A gray mist-like aura rose from his body, and as the aura dissipated, a young man wearing glasses and with a fearful expression emerged from the burly man's shell.
"That's... Lü Liang!"
Zhang Chulan, who had been observing Lü Qian's back from a distance, naturally saw this scene. As soon as the young man's figure appeared, he immediately recognized him.
It was Lü Liang who had tricked him a few days ago, along with Liu Yanyan, who had run away from the Liu family, and the so-called "Four Madmen" Xia He.
But now things are different. The once unruly and wicked Lü Liang, who seemed untouchable, is now like he has encountered his natural enemy. He is crawling and tumbling, his face full of terror, as if the easygoing Lü Qian in front of him is a deadly messenger who has come to take his life.
"It really is you, Lü Liang of Quanxing."
Lu Qian did not slow down his movements. With his right hand, he struck Lu Liang's shoulder with even greater speed. At the same time, he stomped his foot, and a Ruyi Force sank into the ground.
"No matter how strong and fierce you look on the outside, inside you're still that cowardly and wicked brat."
"boom!"
As Lü Qian's calm voice fell, a swirling Ruyi Force emerged from the ground in front of Lü Liang, like an earth dragon bursting forth, curving its way toward Lü Liang.
The fear in Lü Liang's eyes intensified. Unable to dodge in time, he was as if bitten on the shoulder by the earth dragon. The immense force, carried by the earth dragon's attack, slammed him to the ground.
The power contained within the earth dragon multiplied upon contact with Lü Liang, countless streams of energy penetrating his flesh and skin like fine silver needles, coursing through his meridians and immobilizing him in place.
"puff!"
The sensation of the silver needles piercing his meridians was like being slowly sliced to death with a dull knife. The immense pain caused Lü Liang to vomit a mouthful of blood and faint.
"Lü Liang, why aren't you home yet? When are you going to return?"
A right hand lifted the half-dead Lü Liang from the ground; it was Lü Qian.
He looked indifferently at his kinsman, "As a member of the Lü family, you actually joined the Quanxing Sect, how dare you!"
After saying that, he casually tossed his hand, as if carrying a bag of garbage, grabbed Lü Liang by the collar, and dragged him along the ground.
"Please make way, everyone. I need to take this Quanxing to see my grandfather."
With a calm expression, Lü Qian dragged Lü Liang backwards, following the path cleared by the crowd, towards the Lü family's camp.
Zhang Chulan looked at Lü Qian, who was ruthless and decisive, with mixed feelings. The other man's indifferent and ruthless eyes were imprinted in his mind. "This guy is really ruthless. He's got a tough nut to crack."
People who have goals, direction, and the courage to act are the hardest to sway.
He and the others watched Lü Qian's departing figure, seemingly frozen in place, silently observing the departure of this ruthless man.
In the woods, Lü Qian dragged Lü Liang, who was as dead as a dog, up the mountain steps. The undulating steps bumped against Lü Liang's body again and again, but he didn't care.
Now that Lü Liang has been captured, it can be considered a complete success.
Thinking this, a Taoist priest dressed in a three-colored robe walked towards them. He had a gentle face and exuded an aura of peace and tranquility.
"Fellow Daoist Tu, how have you been?"
The newcomer was none other than Tu Junfang. He was completely different from when Lü Qian first met him, as if he had undergone a complete transformation. Judging from his appearance alone, no one would recognize him as the famous "Three Corpses".
Tu Junfang bowed to Lü Qian, smiled, and said, "Fellow Daoist Lü, I've come here to ask for your help again."
"I want to completely withdraw from Quanxing. I beg Fellow Daoist Lü to help me through this one more time, so that it may end properly."
