Chapter 593: Chapter 264: Critical Intelligence, Mutated Ancient Profound Vine, Joy Sect (Part 4)

If that’s the case.

Then the doppelgänger wouldn’t be merely wasting time researching the Talisman Array.

Instead, it could continually provide blood offerings for the Ancient Profound Vine:

"Once the doppelgänger recovers, let’s try it again."

Having made up his mind.

Suddenly.

The strange mask trembled slightly:

"Hmm?"

It’s the first time the mask has shown this anomaly.

Fu Changsheng tapped his storage bag, with a flash of Dawn Light, the mask instantly appeared on his face, and with a thought, he suddenly appeared in the Task Hall.

By the mirror.

A striking line of text caught his eyes:

"A bounty of three thousand spirit stones for the head of Madam Luoo in North Huai Prefecture."

Madam Luoo?!

Fu Changsheng hesitated for a moment.

Immediately recalled who she was, the mistress of his elder brother’s daughter, Yongwei:

"Hmph, just in time!"

He was thinking about going to North Huai Prefecture after the celebration.

The Shadow Sect just provided this task, fitting perfectly.

.....

North Huai Prefecture.

A secret chamber underground.

Madam Luoo coldly stared at Yongwei, who knelt on the ground expressionlessly:

"I sent you to annihilate everyone at Qiuluo Manor, but you actually tipped them off in advance, leaving me not only without the silver reward but also losing a large sum of spirit stones to the employer. Have you grown wings, or do you think this old lady can’t control you anymore?"

"Ungrateful wretch!"

"If it weren’t for me taking you in from the snow all those years ago"

"Providing for you with fine clothes and food, allowing you to step onto the path of cultivation, could you have today? So, now that you’ve broken through to the Late Stage of Qi Cultivation, do you no longer regard this old woman?"

"If I had known then what I know now"

"I would have let the wild wolves swallow you alive."

"If not for you, why would Hong Lang have abandoned me!"

"Speak!"

"Have you become mute?!"

Madam Luoo seeing Yongwei, who knelt like wood, became even more infuriated.

Yongwei lowered her head.

Still silent.

Years ago, when she first executed an assassination task, she was almost killed in return, it was the eldest young master of Qiuluo Manor who saved her. If she was someone who repaid kindness with betrayal, she wouldn’t have willingly endured Madam Luoo’s torment for so many years. 𝒻𝑟𝘦𝘦𝘸ℯ𝒷𝑛𝘰𝓋ℯ𝘭.𝘤𝘰𝘮

Seeing Yongwei unmoved by either persuasion or force.

Madam Luoo snorted coldly:

"Get, get, get, out of my sight."

As she turned.

Her eyes narrowed slightly.

It seems Yongwei can’t be kept after all; in that case, I might as well sell her directly to the Joy Sect, before this girl’s Primordial Yin fades, and earn a hefty sum.

Thinking this way.

Madam Luoo began to ponder how to contact someone from the Joy Sect.

...

Elsewhere.

Several hundred miles away from Yunshan County.

A group of Immortal Cranes slowly flew by.

Among them.

Riding on the trailing Immortal Crane were a man and a woman, the woman, with Mid-Stage Qi Cultivation, looked extremely ordinary, giving off the impression of an honest person, while the man was dressed in splendid clothes, but had no spiritual power fluctuations, clearly just a mortal.

The young man sat silently, yet gave off a feeling of keeping others at arm’s length.

The female cultivator whispered:

"Brother Qiang, it’ll only be an hour before we reach your Fu Family’s estate. I heard from the people on the estate that not long ago, your father brought back the illegitimate daughter he had with that woman from the Yu Family as well, settled her in Demon-Defying City’s Star-Receiving Tower, and even had your fourth aunt personally teach her. Not only does she not need to perform tasks for the clan, but she can also withdraw anything she wants from the clan’s treasury, living like a princess."

"Besides"

"Your father also picked up that foster son from the Ping Family’s estate, and I heard he’s gearing up to prepare a Foundation Establishment Pill for him too."

"Brother Qiang"

"This time, when you go back and see your father, make sure you behave well, otherwise, in two years, you’ll be eighteen, and if you still don’t earn your father’s favor by then, you’ll be kicked out of the gate."

"Of course"

"I certainly won’t leave you. We’ve long sworn before the matchmaker, to share life and death together, but, but, I fear if you were truly sent down the mountain, seeing your parents again would be no easier than climbing to heaven. I seek nothing else but hope you experience what fatherly love is, so that when our child is born, you can take your father as a model and be a good father. That’s all I wish for."

The woman Qiuya spoke while continuously observing Brother Qiang’s emotional changes.

Seeing a flicker of sinister color in Brother Qiang’s eyes, she finally contentedly shut her mouth.
