Thinking of this, Li Meng turned around, intending to leave.
He had to inform the Li Family of this news; they must spare no effort to eliminate Qin Xuan and unearth the secrets he possessed!
Thinking of this, he no longer cared about the lives of the others present.
He just wanted to bring this news back!
"Die!"
The two were in the midst of a crucial battle, but at this moment, Li Meng cowered and tried to flee. Qin Xuan, of course, would not let go of this opportunity.
The third form of Azure Dragon Nine Slashes instantly struck!
"Roar!"
The sword body cut through the air, sounding like a series of Dragon roars, carrying sharp Sword Intent and killing intent, instantly enveloping Li Meng's back!
"Not good!"
Li Meng cried out, hastily using his jade ruler to block Qin Xuan's attack.
"Clang!"
The jade ruler was sent flying on the spot, and the Wu Feng Sword struck Li Meng's back.
"Crack!"
The sound of bones shattering emanated, and Li Meng, who was turning to leave, was directly slammed to the ground!
"Mercy!"
Ignoring the fresh blood spewing from his mouth, Li Meng cried out in horror, only wishing to beg for mercy.
But what followed was not forgiveness, but the Wu Feng Sword, constantly enlarging before his eyes.
He shouldn't have been so greedy...
At the last moment, this was the only thought in his mind.
"Crack!"
Li Meng's head was directly smashed, splattering red and white matter all over Qin Xuan.
Before his Mental Energy dissipated, Qin Xuan raised his hand and extracted his Mental Energy.
"Go!"
Seeing Li Meng killed, Qin Xuan, covered in red and white, looked like a God of Slaughter. The others turned and fled.
Even Elder Li Meng was dead, so there was no need to mention the others.
"Want to escape, just you?"
Qin Xuan snorted coldly and immediately followed them.
The cultivation of these few people was merely on par with his, and soon Qin Xuan had killed them until only one remained.
"No, don't kill me! As long as you spare my life, I'll agree to anything!"
At this point, this person directly knelt and begged for mercy.
"Speak, who sent you?"
Qin Xuan interrogated the person.
"If I tell you, will you let me live?"
This person cast a hopeful gaze at Qin Xuan.
Qin Xuan snorted coldly.
"No, but I can make your death quicker!"
Hearing that Qin Xuan was unwilling to spare him, this person intended to remain silent.
"Then I'll slowly dismember you with my sword!"
Qin Xuan said, then made his move.
"I'll tell you, I'll tell you!"
Qin Xuan had only used a few sword strikes, and this person couldn't bear the pain.
"We were sent by the city!"
The City Lord?
Qin Xuan frowned, then sneered.
"Do you think I'm easy to fool? Although Yuan Hao is powerful, he hasn't been in Fire Wind City for long. All things considered, he's just a lone commander. How could he mobilize so many people?"
Qin Xuan didn't believe it and continued his assault.
"It's not just the City Lord, but also several other Families: the Li Family, the Sima Family, and the Du Family, all made their move!"
This!
Hearing this, an extremely strong killing intent flashed in Qin Xuan's eyes.
The Li Family and the Sima Family had grievances with the Qin Family, so he could understand their involvement.
But why was the Du Family joining in the fun?
"It was City Lord Yuan Hao who organized these Families. I heard it was the intention of the Xuanlong Dao Zhao Family!"
Hearing this, Qin Xuan's expression turned cold.
If it was the Zhao Family, then everything made sense.
If it were just Yuan Hao, even if the other Families hated the Qin Family, they wouldn't dare to act.
But with the Zhao Family's backing, the other Families might indeed unite.
"This time, these Families united to completely eliminate the Qin Family!"
"So they split into two groups this time. This side is just a decoy to attract the main force of the Qin Family, while the others are preparing to exterminate the Qin Family!"
Exterminate the Family!
Hearing this term, Qin Xuan couldn't help but clench his fists tightly.
These damned bastards actually want to wipe out the entire Qin Family!
The Du Family...
Suddenly, Qin Xuan realized something.
In this mountain range, their objective was not to destroy the Qin Family's convoy.
Their true objective was the Qin Family's Medicine Garden.
As for the convoy, it was just a diversion.
The Medicine Garden was supported by the Du Family's Formation, but since it was a Formation set up by the Du Family, who knew if there were any backdoors?
He feared the Du Family wasn't so honest.
"Good, seeing as you're being honest, I'll give you a quick death!"
After beheading the opponent with a sword, Qin Xuan also threw these people into the Refining God Cauldron, turning them into Origin Spirit Liquid.
"This jade ruler is good."
Picking up Li Meng's jade ruler, Qin Xuan swung it forcefully.
With one more, he could melt them into the Wu Feng Sword, and the Wu Feng Sword's quality could also be improved.
Three Medium Grade Magical Artifacts could be melted into a High Grade Magical Artifact in the Refining God Cauldron.
"I still need to get another Medium Grade Magical Artifact."
Qin Xuan stroked his chin, pondering continuously.
However, since so many Families were acting simultaneously this time, although Medium Grade Magical Artifacts were rare, there should be quite a few in the hands of these people.
"To the Medicine Garden, I hope nothing has happened there yet!"
Without further ado, Qin Xuan rushed towards the Medicine Garden at top speed.
The Medicine Garden was not only crucial for the Qin Family but also for him to become an Alchemist.
Now he needed a large amount of medicinal ingredients to practice Alchemy!
Therefore, the Medicine Garden could not suffer any mishaps.
Thinking of this, Qin Xuan continuously rushed towards the Medicine Garden.
...
Medicine Valley.
This is the name of a place in the Tianheng Mountain Range abundant in Spiritual Qi.
However, even before the Qin Family chose this place as their Medicine Garden, there were already many medicinal ingredients here.
But at that time, this place was occupied by a Level 4 Spirit Beast. Apart from a few mercenary adventurers who managed to collect some precious medicinal ingredients, no one else could enter.
All of this changed after the Qin Family decided to venture into Alchemy more than ten years ago.
Because the profits from Alchemy were incredibly lucrative, the Qin Family invested a lot of energy into the Medicine Garden.
To guard the Medicine Garden, Qin Yuan, who had already stepped into the Tianxuan Realm at that time, led people to kill this Level 4 Spirit Beast.
This act not only made the Qin Family famous in Fire Wind City, striking fear into other Families, but also allowed the Qin Family to completely occupy the Medicine Valley.
The Medicine Garden was located within the Medicine Valley.
In the past, due to the Qin Family's prestige, almost no one dared to cause trouble here.
After all, the Qin Family was not to be trifled with, and there was also a Qin Family Elder in the Profound Earth Realm stationed here.
But in recent days, the Medicine Garden had been filled with a tense atmosphere.
Nothing else, the convoy responsible for transporting medicinal herbs was actually attacked.
This made everyone in the Medicine Garden extremely nervous, fearing that they would be the next target.
However, after the incident, a message came from the Family, stating that the Clan Chief would bring people here to completely eradicate those individuals.
Hearing this news, everyone in the Medicine Garden relaxed considerably.
After all, as long as the Family took this matter seriously, resolving these people would be as easy as turning over one's hand.
Only...
"I still feel there's something strange about this matter."
At this moment, in the Medicine Garden, looking at the gradually rising sun, Qin Family Elder Qin Hu was frowning and speaking.
Beside him was an Old Man.
The Old Man stroked his beard and smiled.
"What's so strange? These thieves don't dare to provoke the Qin Family, so they can only resort to such despicable and shameless acts. They are ultimately just clowns, nothing to worry about!"
The Old Man said, and hearing this, Qin Hu next to him still shook his head.
"Old Du, you don't know, no matter how I look at this matter, it seems strange."
"If they wanted to attack the Qin Family, they could have completely attacked the Medicine Garden. That way, I wouldn't have been prepared, and this Medicine Garden might have truly been finished."
"But they only ambushed the convoy, which is too absurd. This is simply 'beating the grass to startle the snake.' In my opinion, their goal is probably the main Qin Family."
Qin Hu said, shaking his head continuously.
Hearing this, the Old Man's expression changed, then returned to normal.
"Haha, you're overthinking it. How can this matter be so strange? We just need to guard this place well!"
Listening to the Old Man's words, Qin Hu nodded gratefully.
"Old Du, if it weren't for your Du Family members overseeing the Formation, the defense here would really be difficult."
The Old Man beside him also smiled and stroked his beard.
"You and I have known each other for many years, there's no need to be so polite. Besides, your Qin Family and our Du Family have always been on good terms."
"However, I wonder which expert will come to support us this time?"
Old Du tentatively asked Qin Hu.
"I don't know, but it's either the Clan Chief or the Third Elder Qin Yan."
While Qin Hu was speaking, Qin Xuan had already arrived near the Medicine Garden.
Looking at the almost transparent, massive defensive light curtain covering the huge Medicine Valley, Qin Xuan nodded slightly.
Although this Formation was full of flaws, its sheer scale was truly enormous.
As for the subtlety of the Formation...
Qin Xuan shook his head; it was truly nothing special.
During his three hundred years in the Tian Tomb, every time he returned to the Great Wilderness Space, Xuanji Empress would make him learn all sorts of things.
"Since you've become my man, you can't be a good-for-nothing. Learn everything!"
Therefore, during these three hundred years, although he couldn't cultivate due to the lack of Spiritual Qi, he learned a lot in various miscellaneous fields such as Alchemy, Formation, and Beast Taming.
"These are good things from the Upper Realm, far superior to anything in your Lower Realm."
Therefore, he had great accomplishments in Formation.
Looking at the still peaceful Medicine Garden, Qin Xuan breathed a slight sigh of relief.
It seemed this place had not been attacked, which was probably the best news for now.
