Chapter 69

Those Golden Core cultivators flew to the edge of the spirit field in the blink of an eye. They wanted to enter the spirit field, and at that moment, the defensive array set up by Master Xiyi around the spirit field immediately activated.

Everyone glanced at the Lingdie Sect's Master Fang Ruolei, who nodded and said:

"Just now, the aura of Elder Luo dissipated. This is not the phenomenon that should occur during a soul transfer. It seems there was a problem with the soul transfer. Break it open!"

With a command, these Golden Core cultivators immediately took action. They soared in the air, like spirit butterflies, ethereal and graceful, then instantly struck. After striking, they lightly tapped and swiftly changed positions, truly embodying the saying, "Passing through a thousand flowers without a single leaf sticking to the body!"

Under their attack, the spirit field's defense shattered with a loud boom!

In an instant, everything inside was exposed. Luo Li immediately fell, pretending to be unconscious.

These Golden Core cultivators entered the spirit field, landing gracefully and elegantly. Among them, Fang Ruolei began to examine the scene. After a long time, he said:

"Elder Luo's physical body has collapsed, leaving only ashes! It seems the soul transfer has been completed. Wake him up! Ask who he is."

Someone immediately untied Luo Li, set him down, and began to wake him up. Luo Li awoke, and Real Master Hanhai shouted at Luo Li:

"What is your name?"

This question was like a heavenly deity's interrogation, a test of the heart. Luo Li had to answer. Without hesitation, he said:

"Luo Li, I am Luo Li!"

Upon hearing this, everyone sighed deeply. The last shred of hope was shattered. Master Xiyi's soul transfer had failed, and he had died! Otherwise, the answer would have been, "I am Xiyi!"

Fang Ruolei shook his head and said, "Throughout history, soul transfers by Golden Core cultivators have always been difficult. Many predecessors have died in the process. Elder Luo's demise is normal; it is his fate!"

However, regarding the soul transfer, he said, "It's better to speak well of it. Let's consider this matter over. We will say that Master Xiyi's lifespan has ended, and he fell tonight!"

Real Master Shengwei looked at Luo Li and said:

"How should we handle him?"

Fang Ruolei looked at Luo Li and asked:

"Luo Li, do you know what happened just now?"

Luo Li shook his head and said, "I don't know. I was half-asleep, and I don't know how I ended up here. I know nothing!"

Fang Ruolei nodded and asked:

"It's better not to know. Even if you knew, there would be nothing you could do. Public opinion is not something we can control. Just let it pass.

Luo Li, although you are the deputy peak master of Kongyuan Peak, Elder Luo's aura has dissipated, and the Kongyuan lineage has been extinguished. You are now alone, and you are only at the third level of Qi Condensation. What do you plan to do?"

Luo Li understood immediately. His position as deputy peak master of Kongyuan Peak was over. He hurriedly said:

"Disciple is just an ordinary cultivator and has no qualifications to be the deputy peak master of Kongyuan Peak. Disciple requests to resign from this position and asks the sect leader for approval!"

Fang Ruolei asked:

"Since you have this intention, then so be it. Tomorrow, the sect's law hall will open, and you will resign from your position. Then come to my Ziyang Mountain to cultivate. Rest assured, we will not treat you poorly!"

Luo Li bowed and said, "Thank you, sect leader!"

Thus, Luo Li's position was stripped, and he became an ordinary inner sect disciple!

Fang Ruolei then said to the other Golden Core cultivators:

"Alas, the Three Realms Crystal Butterfly is extinct, Elder Luo has dissipated, and Kongyuan Peak is in name only. Let's follow the old rules!

Each lineage will send ten people to support the framework of Kongyuan Peak. The four medium-sized spirit veins here, two will belong to my Ziyang Mountain, and the rest will be divided among you!"

Real Master Shengwei shouted, "The remaining two medium-sized spirit veins will be divided into twenty small spirit veins, and my Tian Gao Peak will take eight of them!"

Real Master Hanhai shouted, "Why should you get them? My Jiuzhuan Peak will take eight!"

They immediately began to argue, and even before Master Xiyi's body had cooled, they started to divide the spoils.

Luo Li didn't know what to say. Two Foundation Establishment cultivators came over, one in front and one behind, and said to Luo Li:

"Luo Li, come with us. This place is no longer your cave abode!"

Luo Li had no choice but to leave. On the way, he noticed that the entire Kongyuan Peak was filled with people. They were putting up seals on various halls, and other lineages were dividing Kongyuan Peak.

Luo Li said, "I want to return to my cave abode to retrieve my things!"

The cultivator said, "Everything in the cave abode belongs to the sect. Your cave abode has been sealed. What are you going to retrieve? Hurry up and leave!"

Luo Li didn't even have the right to return to his cave abode to retrieve his things and was escorted out of Kongyuan Peak!

Fortunately, the Lingxibi, the Zhenyan given back by Su Xianzi, and the spirit wood sword were all in Luo Li's storage bag. But apart from these, his storage bag was empty.

Thus, Luo Li was expelled from Kongyuan Peak and taken to Ziyang Mountain, where he was given a random room. The two people turned and left!

Luo Li couldn't sleep. He sighed deeply, sat by the window, and played with the ink, brush, and paper on the table. These were ordinary items, containing no spiritual energy, suitable for mortals.

Looking at the inkstone in his hand, which was far inferior to his own Zhenyan, Luo Li shook his head, pushed open the window, and looked at the scenery outside. Everything had changed so quickly. In the blink of an eye, he was homeless.

Luo Li couldn't help but say:

"Life is a great dream, and the world is cool in autumn!"

Suddenly, someone outside the window shouted:

"Great is the dream of life, and the world is cool in autumn.

Congratulations, Elder Luo, the soul transfer was successful. Brother Liu Fan congratulates you!"

Luo Li looked over and saw a cultivator dressed as a traveling merchant, smiling at him. This person was extremely fat, with a double chin and a thick neck, looking honest and straightforward. He was dressed like a street vendor, carrying a cargo basket on his back. This person was definitely not from the Lingdie Sect!

Luo Li was stunned. Liu Fan, this name, he seemed to have heard it somewhere!

Liu Fan said again, "By the way, Elder Luo, shouldn't we settle our accounts? Our Four Seas Cloud Travel Sect does small business, and we don't allow credit..."

Suddenly, Luo Li remembered. Master Xiyi had once muttered to himself:

"That Liu Fan, if he doesn't have money, he will take your life. I can't afford to offend him!"

In an instant, Luo Li knew who he was. He was the one who sold the soul transfer method to Master Xiyi, the one who sold the Postnatal Dao Body Fruit to Master Xiyi, and the one who acquired Su Xianzi. Without him, none of this would have happened, and those people wouldn't have died!

In an instant, Luo Li was enraged, truly angry. This guy was the culprit, the one who had killed everyone!

At that moment, Luo Li didn't think about the strength gap between them. He roared and leaped out of the window, aiming a punch at the big fat head of this guy!

Liu Fan, although he came to collect a debt, still had a smile on his face, a habit of merchants. Seeing Luo Li punch him, he didn't expect it at all. There was a crack, and Luo Li, who was holding the inkstone, hit his head!

He was stunned, touched his head, and looked at Luo Li hesitantly, saying, "You hit me?"

Luo Li raised his hand again, and there was another crack! He finally reacted, saying, "You can hit me?"

Luo Li hit him again, and there was another crack! He finally understood, saying, "You actually dared to hit me? You can actually hit me!"

This time, Luo Li used too much force, and the inkstone shattered!

The inkstone shattered, and Luo Li suddenly remembered the identity of the other person, someone even Master Xiyi feared. How could he be a simple person!

Luo Li's heart turned cold, but he didn't retreat. He shouted, "You scoundrel, it's all your fault, you killed so many people!

If you hadn't sold the soul transfer method to Xiyi, how could this have happened? Su Cai Zhen, He Li, Jin Ling, and Wang Nitian were all killed by you!"

Liu Fan looked at Luo Li, patted the dust and fragments of the inkstone off his head, and said:

"Is that really correct?

Su Cai Zhen isn't dead yet, so you shouldn't blame me! Besides, He Li, Jin Ling, and Wang Nitian seem to have been killed by you. You killed them, and they died by your hand. It's not reasonable to blame me!"

Luo Li was stunned, then said with great joy, "Su Cai Zhen isn't dead?"

Liu Fan didn't answer, saying, "Moreover, I am just a merchant, and I do free trade. It's not like I forced them to buy. If he was willing to buy, the consequences should not be blamed on me!

According to your logic, those who die by flying swords should blame the sellers of flying swords, and those who die by magical treasures should blame the sellers of magical treasures. You are the one who is unreasonable!"

Liu Fan's words left Luo Li speechless. Indeed, if the other person was just a merchant, he had no reason to blame him.

Luo Li gritted his teeth, picked up a brick from the ground, and Liu Fan immediately stepped back, saying, "What are you doing? No more hitting! If you hit me again, I won't hold back, and I will hit back!"

Liu Fan stepped back step by step, ready to turn and run!

Luo Li handed the brick over, saying, "I was wrong. An eye for an eye, hit me. I'm sorry!"

Liu Fan looked at Luo Li, saying, "Really, really? Let me hit you? You are crazy!"

Luo Li said, "I was wrong, and I was rash. Mistakes must be acknowledged!"

Liu Fan said, "This is not good. This is you asking me, not me attacking you..."

He snatched the brick and slapped it on Luo Li's head, shattering it. Luo Li held his head and said:

"Thank you!"

Liu Fan said, "You are really crazy, but it was quite satisfying! Can we do it again?"

Luo Li said, "I'm not stupid. I won't do it again! You said Su Cai Zhen isn't dead? Where is she?"

Luo Li did this all for Su Cai Zhen!

Liu Fan shook his head, saying, "According to the contract, she is my merchandise. Why should I tell you?

What a pity. She was originally a beloved concubine of a Golden Core cultivator, a proud and delicate virgin. Now, she is broken and shattered, a damaged good, a total loss!"

Luo Li's heart stirred, and he solemnly said to Liu Fan, "Passing through a thousand flowers without a single leaf sticking to the body! Disciple of the Lingdie Sect, Luo Li, greets the senior!"

Since you won't tell me and you are a merchant, let's follow the rules of merchants!

Liu Fan, seeing Luo Li recite the sect's slogan, also solemnly replied:

"Anything can be bought, anything can be sold! Liu Fan of the Four Seas Cloud Travel Sect, returns the greeting!

Looking at you, Elder Luo's soul transfer failed, what a pity. He still owes me 600,000 spirit stones. Can you pay his debt for him?"

Liu Fan looked at Luo Li with hopeful eyes!

Luo Li replied, "I am Luo Li. The debt of Master Xiyi is none of my business. I won't pay it, and I have no reason to pay it!"

Liu Fan sighed deeply, saying, "Alas, another bad debt, another loss-making deal."

He was about to leave, and Luo Li said:

"Senior, you are a traveling merchant. You should have good things. Can I see them? If they are really good, I can buy a few!

Disciple really wants to buy the damaged good, Su Cai Zhen! Since she is damaged, sell her to me. I really want to buy her!"
