Chapter 59 - 59: One Person, One Sword!
“Bang!”
Lu Changsheng kicked open the door of the alchemy room.
“Miss Li, come in.”
Lu Changsheng said to Li Hongzhuang.
Following that, Li Hongzhuang quickly followed behind Lu Changsheng and entered the alchemy room.
“Yes, it’s here.”
“Last time, I searched the alchemy room for a long time but couldn’t find the Elixir Essence Pill.”
Li Hongzhuang’s gaze swept around, finally landing on the last Cui family elder among the three.
“Speak up, where is the Elixir Essence Pill hidden?”
Li Hongzhuang inquired.
The Cui family elder wore a wry smile on his face. He looked at the two corpses on the ground outside the door and his eyes held a touch of coldness. “You want the Elixir Essence Pill? Hahaha, absolutely impossible!”
“My Cui family expended ten years of hard work and consumed countless human and material resources to gather the materials for an Elixir Essence Pill, from which one Elixir Essence Pill was refined.”
“Now you want to pluck the fruits and seize the Elixir Essence Pill? Daydreaming!”
The Cui family elder put on an appearance of grievance, making Li Hongzhuang’s eyes seem as if they could shoot fire. She rebuked sternly, “You old man, the Elixir Essence Pill formula itself was stolen from my Li family by your Cui family. Over two hundred souls from my Li family are still waiting to settle the score with your Cui family!”
The Cui family elder remained cold and didn’t say a word.
“You’re stalling, waiting for other experts from the Cui family to come to your rescue?”
Suddenly, Lu Changsheng spoke.
“Heh heh, not too dumb! But it won’t help because they’re already here.”
The Cui family elder said coldly.
Indeed, as soon as the Cui family elder finished speaking, the sound of footsteps came from outside the alchemy room.
Obviously, it was the Cui family’s security team.
From the sound of the footsteps, there were probably several hundred people, and many of them were martial artists.
Even most of the other organ-refining warriors from the Cui family had likely arrived.
“Thirteen, what should we do?”
Li Hongzhuang’s face changed, and she seemed anxious.
However, Lu Changsheng remained unfazed and calmly said, “Miss Li, the Elixir Essence Pill is hidden in the alchemy room. Do you think it’s that easy to find? Since the Cui family people won’t talk, it’s up to you to search for it.”
“But there’s no need to rush. The Elixir Essence Pill is right here in the alchemy room! Not only did Lord Luo say so, but the three Cui family elders are also here in the alchemy room. Besides the Elixir Essence Pill, what else is worth guarding by the three Cui family elders?”
“You can search slowly. As for these Cui family people, with me here, they won’t be able to step half a step into the alchemy room!”
Lu Changsheng’s tone oozed absolute confidence.
“What?”
“Thirteen, are you planning to single-handedly confront all of the Cui family’s warriors?”
Li Hongzhuang was very shocked!
Organ-refining warriors were not transcendent realm martial artists; they were still flesh and blood, and blades and weapons could injure and kill them.
A peak organ-refining warrior should theoretically be killed as long as there are enough warriors.
The entire Cui family is a vast power, how many warriors do they have?
Furthermore, the Cui family also possesses offensive weapons such as bows and crossbows.
Can “Thirteen” really defend the alchemy room all by himself?
“Miss Li, rest assured and search.”
“However, there’s a small problem in the alchemy room that I will deal with first.”
Lu Changsheng also didn’t bother to question the Cui family elder any further.
With a flicker, he instantly appeared in front of the Cui family elder.
The Cui family elder erupted with blood energy and swung his sword as well.
“Splurt.”
The next moment, the Cui family elder’s body trembled, and a gash appeared on his throat.
“You…”
The Cui family elder tightly clutched his throat, glaring at Lu Changsheng.
From beginning to end, Lu Changsheng never took the Cui family elder too seriously.
A peak organ-refining warrior, in Lu Changsheng’s eyes, was no different from an ordinary warrior.
All it took was one sword to settle it!
“Thud.”
The Cui family elder died.
With that, all three of the Cui family elders were dead.
These were the Cui family’s only three peak organ-refining warriors!
All of them had fallen at the hands of Lu Changsheng.
“Miss Li, 1 leave the search for the Elixir Essence Pill to you.”
Having said that, Lu Changsheng directly walked out of the alchemy room.
Li Hongzhuang’s eyes turned red, but she didn’t say anything. Instead, she clenched her teeth and immediately began searching in the alchemy room.
She knew very well that as long as she could find the Elixir Essence Pill as soon as possible, “Thirteen” wouldn’t have to risk confronting so many people from the Cui family.
At this moment, Lu Changsheng had already walked out of the alchemy room.
One person, one sword, he stood outside the alchemy room like that.
“Hurry, follow him.”
“Archers, get ready.”
“Surround from all sides, don’t let any of the thieves escape!”
Warriors and guards quickly gathered from all sides of the alchemy room, totaling several hundred people.
Many of them even held bows and crossbows in their hands.
Bows and crossbows are contraband, prohibited by the imperial court.
However, by now, which prominent family didn’t have bows, crossbows, or even armor?
For instance, back when it was the Gao family stronghold, or now in the Cui family.
This world has long since become corrupt!
At this moment, the Cui family’s patriarch was hurrying with experts to quickly reach the alchemy room.
Along the way, the ground was filled with corpses, shocking all the Cui family members.
However, the Cui family’s patriarch was not anxious.
He knew that the Elixir Essence Pill was in the alchemy room, and the three clan elders were guarding it.
The three Cui family elders, as peak organ-refining warriors, were like the last line of defense for the Cui family!
As long as the three Cui family elders were present, no matter what the Cui family encountered, they could turn danger into safety.
But when the Cui family members arrived at the alchemy room and saw the two corpses on the ground, everyone’s expressions changed dramatically, as if they couldn’t believe it.
Cui Lao?”
“The two corpses on the ground are two of the three Cui family elders.”
“How could this be?”
“There is even a corpse inside the alchemy room, which is the last of the three Cui family elders.”
“How could the three Cui family elders die?”
The Cui family patriarch’s heart trembled, the Cui family elders had died!
The Cui family’s last line of defense was gone.
If the three Cui family elders didn’t suppress the city, other forces would probably start to stir.
Even the two Cui family elders, who were peak organ-refining warriors, would probably have some treacherous thoughts.
The death of the three Cui family elders was like a bolt from the blue to the Cui family.
ii
No, there’s still a chance.”
“As long as the Elixir Essence Pill is still there, my Cui family still has the possibility of giving birth to transcendent realm martial artists.”
“Even if we can’t give birth to transcendent realm martial artists, once someone succeeds with the Elixir Essence Pill, they will be stronger than an ordinary peak organ-refining warrior.”
“We cannot afford to lose the Elixir Essence Pill!”
The Cui family patriarch’s mind was set.
Afterward, he cast his gaze towards the alchemy room.
However, outside the alchemy room, he saw only one warrior standing there.
One person, one sword, standing outside the alchemy room.
“One person, one sword killed the three elders?”
The Cui family patriarch’s heart shuddered; this swordsman was clearly not simple.
When the three Cui family elders joined forces to display the Three Talents Formation, their strength was terrifying.
It was almost impossible for one person to defeat the three Cui family elders.
Unless the other party was a transcendent realm martial artist!
However, the other party couldn’t be a transcendent realm martial artist. If they were, the Cui family elders wouldn’t have resisted.
Whatever the other party wanted, the Cui family would grant it; why would they stir up a massacre?
Since the other party wasn’t a transcendent realm martial artist, they had to be an organ-refining warrior.
“An organ-refining warrior intends to block my Cui family’s guards all by himself?”
“Hundreds of people coming at once, can any organ-refining warrior withstand that?”
The Cui family patriarch sneered inwardly.
The other party had killed the three elders but hadn’t run away, so it was clear they were still searching for the Elixir Essence Pill.
Since the Elixir Essence Pill hadn’t been found, he was relieved.
As long as he killed this intruder and protected the Elixir Essence Pill, the Cui family would still be the dominant force in the city..
