The Immortal Wife Is Like A Cloud

Chapter 464: Spoils of War

although this guy had already been severely injured by the backlash from the formation earlier, he was still alive. but now, he died rather abruptly.

su jingzhen was momentarily stunned as he looked at zhou li’s corpse, his eyes narrowing slightly.

at this moment, shen yifeng had also arrived at su jingzhen’s side.

he scanned zhou li with his divine consciousness, then glanced toward zou zeyu and his group outside the barrier.

“it seems the zhou family’s involvement wasn’t just as simple as being instructed.

that kid is even more ruthless than i initially thought,” shen yifeng said, a smile tugging at the corner of his lips, though he didn’t seem overly concerned.

by now, su jingzhen had also come to his senses.

it was likely that the zhou family had long been subdued by zou zeyu and his group.

zhou li had clearly been bound by an extremely strict contract, similar to how su jingzhen could end zhao tianming’s life with just a thought.

obviously, either zou zeyu or the second elder at his side didn’t want zhou li to reveal any information about them.

everyone knew this was likely the truth, but there was nothing they could do about it.

“it doesn’t matter. if soldiers come, we’ll block them with generals; if water comes, we’ll dam it with earth.

no matter who’s behind all this, or who wants to target our linjiang branch, let them come.

whether they use underhanded means or attack openly, our linjiang branch will face them all head-on,”

su jingzhen declared, his tone carrying a hint of boldness.

after this battle, he was clearly filled with confidence.

right now, he was only at the second stage of flesh body nascent embryo.

once he broke through to the stage of the true fetus, reaching a level equivalent to the soul formation stage, perhaps then, within the qingzhou region, su jingzhen could dare to call himself invincible.

moreover, given his current foundation, achieving that level wouldn’t be too difficult.

not to mention, he still had bai suzhen, a trump card he hadn’t even used yet.

so in his view, while zou zeyu and tuoba junlin might want him dead, they no longer had the power to kill him.

they could only watch as he, su jingzhen, rose step by step, leading them into panic.

of course, in his opinion, the best outcome would be to use this journey to the dantai ruins to completely eliminate these hidden dangers.

shen yifeng nodded in agreement with su jingzhen’s words.

just then, a sudden flash of excitement appeared in su jingzhen’s eyes.

he bent down and removed the storage ring from zhou li’s hand.

now that zhou li was dead, the storage ring had naturally become ownerless.

su jingzhen easily used his divine consciousness to enter it and inspect its contents.

as the head of the zhou family, zhou li’s storage ring instantly made su jingzhen excited again.

the zhou family was one of the top forces in qingzhou, and the head of the family would naturally have far more wealth than others.

the storage ring itself was of extremely high quality.

the spirit stones, for instance, were piled up in heaps, and su jingzhen estimated their total value to be in the hundreds of thousands of lower-grade spirit stones.

however, spirit stones were not something su jingzhen lacked at his current status; in fact, he rarely even had a chance to use them.

the ring also contained several high-quality magical artifacts, which pleased su jingzhen.

in another corner were various bottles and jars, each containing pills of different grades.

however, su jingzhen wasn’t particularly interested in these, as he was an alchemist himself.

with the resources of the dan hall at his disposal, he had more pills than zhou li could ever have.

as su jingzhen continued to

only cang yun from the dongxuan academy still wore a dark expression, his eyes betraying a strong sense of unwillingness.

han ning, standing beside him, noticed this and gently shook his head without saying a word.

meanwhile, su jingzhen and shen yifeng paid no attention to the thoughts of those outside.

the master and disciple duo had made their way to the very center of the barrier, to the location resembling a eight trigram formation plate.

“this is a real treasure.

at a crucial moment, if we release this barrier, it would be the perfect tool for trapping enemies like dogs in a closed space.”
