Killing a Cultivator of the Shangguan Family (2)

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

It was not too difficult for cultivators with a Heavenly Spiritual Root to form a Golden Core either.

However, looking at the situation, it was obvious that the baby girl was carrying a lot of karma.

Shen Ruyan tried to carry the baby girl.

The baby girl immediately giggled happily.

At this moment, the couple noticed a letter on the baby girl.

After thinking for a moment, Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan finally decided to open the letter.

It was a letter of entrustment, hoping that the Xiao family in the southeast could take in this baby girl.

It said that the Xiao family could nurture the baby girl as one of their own and they didn’t have to tell the baby girl her true identity in the future.

It could be seen that the only wish of the person who wrote this letter was for the baby girl to live safely.

Other than that, there was nothing else he wanted.

He was also confident that with the baby girl’s aptitude, the Xiao family would definitely be willing to take her in.

Because…

Having a Heavenly Spiritual Root meant having a future Golden Core.

Even if the Xiao family might have to take a lot of risks, he believed that the Xiao family would not refuse.

“Husband…”

After the couple finished reading the letter, Shen Ruyan immediately turned to look at Jiang Chengxuan with complicated feelings.

Jiang Chengxuan could more or less guess what his Dao companion was thinking.

Just as he was about to answer, a large group of people suddenly appeared in their divine senses.

When they sensed those people, especially the clothes they were wearing, their eyes narrowed.

This was because they had already recognized that these people were all from the Shangguan family.

Could it be that something existed between this baby girl’s family and the Shangguan family…

Just as these thoughts flashed across their minds, the group of people in their divine senses had already arrived in front of them.

The person in the lead was a middle-aged cultivator at the seventh level of the Violet Palace.

Seeing Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan, he was stunned.

But when he saw the baby girl in Shen Ruyan’s arms, he was pleasantly surprised.

“Haha! We’ve finally found her!

I’ve already said that it’s impossible for your Song family to protect her.”

He seemed to treat Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan as members of the Song family.

He continued, “I’m not afraid to tell you the truth. The Xiao family in the southeast that you’re counting on has been flattened by our Shangguan family a few days ago.

Other than them, the Chen family, the Zhao family, and the Qian family, who are old friends with the Song family, were all gone.

How is that?

Do the two of you still want to continue resisting?”

Hearing that, Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan exchanged a glance.

They really did not expect that the Xiao family in the southeast mentioned in the letter had already been wiped out.

From the looks of it, what the Shangguan family wanted was the baby girl.

Surely, Heavenly Spiritual Root aptitude was one in a million.

In the cultivation world, there was no lack of people who would fight a bloody war over a talented disciple.

However, wasn’t it a little too much for the Shangguan family to destroy so many families for the sake of a baby girl?

It had to be known that when a cultivator reached a certain level of cultivation, they would be able to understand their background.

Even if the Shangguan family wanted someone with Heavenly Spiritual Root aptitude, they wouldn’t need to go so far as to wipe out an entire family, right? Were they not afraid that when the baby girl grew up, she would turn against them?

Unless…

They did not want this baby girl for the sake of nurturing her, but for other purposes.

At the thought of this, the couple couldn’t help but emanate a murderous aura. No matter what their true motive was for wanting this baby girl, since the couple was already involved, they definitely wouldn’t stand by and do nothing, let alone let this group of people from the Shangguan family continue to live. “What? Do you want to die?”

Seeing that Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan did not back down, the middle-aged cultivator’s face immediately turned cold.

There was an undisguised killing intent in his eyes.

“Since you don’t know what’s good for you, die!”

Kill them all!”

As soon as he finished speaking, the middle-aged cultivator was the first to attack.

He raised his hand and took out a huge axe.

The surface of the huge axe was covered with many strange runes.

As soon as it appeared, the gravity around Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan increased by many times.

If it were an ordinary Violet Palace cultivator, they might really be restrained by this sudden gravity.

However, this level of gravity was nothing to Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan.

Jiang Chengxuan casually took out the Golden Void Sword.

There was a clang.

The gravity around him and Shen Ruyan instantly disappeared.

Then, dazzling sparks exploded on the huge axe that was slashing down towards them.

Clang!

The axe was split into two and fell to the ground. The middle-aged cultivator in the lead and his companions were shocked.

“How is that possible?”

Before they could react, Jiang Chengxuan’s Golden Void Sword had already swept past the head of the middle-aged cultivator in the lead.

“Uh…”

He stared with Jiang Chengxuan with his eyes wide open, but before he could say a word, his body fell to the ground with a thud.

Seeing this, the others present were all terrified.

They did not expect the person in front of them to have such terrifying strength to take down a late-stage Violet Palace cultivator in one move.

What did this mean?

It meant that the other party’s strength had already surpassed the Violet Palace.

When did the Song family have such a terrifying figure?

That’s not right!

He can’t possibly be from the Song family!

The remaining people seemed to have realized this and their pupils constricted.

Just now, they were so focused on the baby girl that they subconsciously ignored the two of them.

Now that they realized they weren’t to be trifled with, it was too late.

It was impossible for these people to withstand Jiang Chengxuan’s Golden Void Sword.

Even escaping became an extravagant hope.

However, Jiang Chengxuan was not in a hurry to kill all of them. Instead, he interrogated some of them.

He wanted to find out what was going on between the Shangguan family and the Song family.

And why they wanted that baby girl.

When only Jiang Chengxuan, his wife, and the baby girl were left, Jiang Chengxuan had already obtained all the information he wanted to know.

It turned out that the true reason why the Shangguan family wanted this baby girl was to let a late-stage Golden Core old ancestor in their family possess her.

It was said that that ancestor was already more than 790 years old and could only live for one to two more years.

Coincidentally, their spy in the Song family found out that a baby girl with a Heavenly Spiritual Root had appeared.

Moreover, the baby girl’s constitution seemed to be very compatible with the constitution of the late-stage Golden Core ancestor of the Shangguan family, perfectly meeting the requirement for possession.

Hence, they had designs on the baby girl.

It was obvious that if it wasn’t for the fact that he and Shen Ruyan happened to pass by, the late-stage Golden Core cultivator from the Shangguan family might really be able to use this baby girl’s body to live another life.

Without this baby girl as a target to possess, with the remaining lifespan of that ancestor, it would probably be very difficult for him to find a suitable target to possess.

At that time.

He would either die or find someone random to possess.

However, in that case, without a perfectly compatible constitution, it would be impossible for him to recover to the cultivation level of his previous life.

It would also be difficult for him to condense a Golden Core.

Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan didn’t stay any longer. After burying the man who carried the baby girl all the way here, they returned to the Liang Nation at full speed with the baby girl..
