Chu Liang listened from behind and couldn’t help but shake his head and smile.

If it’s based on this, when it comes to discussing achievements later, it would definitely be Master’s first achievement, Lin Bei’s second achievement, and his own third achievement.

Of course, he was just secretly complaining. Since Master likes it, let them continue acting.

He had other things to do.

Dealing with the aftermath was beyond the scope of the disciples of Shu Mountain. Lin Bei volunteered to contact the officials in the city to take care of and return these women, as well as investigate the specific matters.

During these few days here, Chu Liang had indeed become quite familiar with the people in the city. When Di Nvfeng asked for his help, he confidently patted his chest and said, “We’re buddies!”

He had really studied “Connections” well.

Lord Ding Shan’s residence had been involved in such activities for a long time. They were able to stay here without any trouble, probably because they had the protection of some officials. But it didn’t matter. This incident would soon become widely known, and the court would definitely intervene. Now that the main culprit had been killed and the Young Marquis captured, there was no room for the remaining people to cause trouble.

Chu Liang’s injuries had stabilized, and he could move freely. After Di Nvfeng and Lin Bei finished dealing with matters and prepared to go back to continue watching Xue Lingxue’s performance, he temporarily left.

He returned to the riverside where he had met the Young Marquis during the day.

He relied on the power of the Zhan Hong Ming Jian here to kill Lu Shi. Lu Shi was a sixth realm expert, even if he was a non-mainstream cultivator, he should have accumulated some treasures over the years.

At that time, he was in a hurry to chase the Young Marquis and forgot to search the body.

Now that he had settled down, Chu Liang wanted to quickly come and see if his hard-earned equipment had been taken by someone else.

Fortunately, the Young Marquis had chosen a secluded riverside where few people passed by. When Chu Liang returned, there was no change in the surroundings.

He came to the large pit created by the Wind and Fire Twin Talisman Sword and looked to see if there were any remnants of Lu Shi.

First, he ruled out the body.

According to reason, a sixth realm expert should have cultivated a physical body that far surpassed ordinary people. But Lu Shi’s physical body seemed to be more focused on concealment, and its strength was not particularly great. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have been easily killed by a single sword.

Under the super-amplified power of the Wind and Fire Twin Talisman Sword, there was nothing left of his bones. If he carefully searched, he might find some ashes.

Similarly, most of the items on his body were destroyed, with almost nothing left. But precisely because of this, anything that could be left behind was undoubtedly a treasure.

The first thing Chu Liang saw was a jade slip, hidden under a half-burnt black robe.

He picked it up and took a look. It seemed to be a jade slip for storing information, with nothing particularly special except for its excellent material.

He probed it with his divine sense and checked what was stored inside.

Inside the jade slip, there were white lights, words, and drawings, recording a considerable amount of things. It turned out to be a complete inheritance!

“Seven Kill Dao Technique…” Chu Liang opened his eyes and murmured.

He only glanced roughly, but it was a complete cultivation method for the Tian Xing Yi Shu, and it was likely a rare edition in the world. Its preciousness didn’t need to be mentioned, but it wasn’t of much use to him personally.

Because he didn’t lack inheritances. As a mainstream cultivator, he could naturally learn the next realm’s techniques when he reached a new realm. This was actually a kind of fortune.

In the world, there were many non-mainstream cultivators who had to search everywhere for the techniques of the next realm when they reached the peak of each realm. Some couldn’t even practice the same sect’s techniques continuously and could only piece together their cultivation from various sources.

If such a non-mainstream cultivator obtained such a complete and powerful inheritance, they would naturally be ecstatic.

In addition to the techniques, there were naturally divine abilities, but Chu Liang couldn’t use those divine abilities either. Because the cultivation of Shu Mountain still belonged to the orthodox Daoist methods, which were quite different from the Tian Xing Yi Shu and couldn’t be connected.

The cultivation of the Tian Xing Yi Shu generally progressed faster than the Three Teachings cultivators before the seventh realm, but it was also more singular.

Under the same talent, practitioners of the Tian Xing Yi Shu advanced faster. But at the same realm, cultivators of the Three Teachings would be slightly stronger than practitioners of the Tian Xing Yi Shu.

After breaking through the Earth Gate, this situation would change. At the Heavenly Gate’s third realm, the strength of cultivators would mainly depend on the strength of their “Dao,” rather than the level of their “Techniques.”

Chu Liang put away this inheritance and continued to search in the scorched earth. He found a broken blade, which seemed to be the one that Lu Shi had stabbed himself with. The handle was damaged, but the black blade remained. Looking at it, Chu Liang still felt lingering fear. If Xue Lingxue hadn’t been there, he might have been killed by this blade.

He carefully wrapped it in a piece of cloth and put it away.

Looking around again, he found a small purple-gold gourd. Although it was charred, it was undamaged.

“Huh?” Chu Liang’s eyes lit up.The gourd was made of such sturdy material, surely it contained something valuable. Perhaps the greatest gain of the day lay within it.

He opened the gourd lid, only to find five or six small black pills inside. He sniffed them, but couldn’t detect any scent. He decided to keep them for now and have them appraised at the Dan Ding Pavilion later.

After searching for a while longer, he found nothing else.

It seemed that although Master Lu was highly cultivated, he was not wealthy in terms of treasures. In fact, this was the norm for non-mainstream cultivators.

Not everyone could rely on the immortal sects, obtaining resources at will.

Nor did everyone possess a divine tower that could reward them without restraint.

Chu Liang stood up and scanned the area carefully with his divine sense. Confirming that nothing was left, he bent down to pick up the half of the black robe he had overlooked.

Almost missed this.

How could a piece of clothing that survived under the Wind and Fire Dual Symbol Sword be ordinary?

He put it away, even if he used it as a rag back home, it would be more durable.

He finally took stock of his gains: a jade slip of inheritance, a piece of blade, a gourd of pills, half a black robe…

Master Lu’s death did not leave him with any marks, which answered his previous doubts. It seemed that the White Tower only rewarded him for killing evil spirits, not for killing humans.

After a busy period and spending quite some time, Chu Liang reluctantly stood up and flew back to the concert site.

From afar, he could hear a thunderous noise!

…

“Xue Lingxue!” “Xue Lingxue!” “Xue Lingxue…”

A concert lasting several hours could not possibly be performed by Xue Lingxue alone. Usually, the performer would start with a solo, followed by other musicians. She would then play in harmony with the side instruments, accompanied by dancers and singers, forming a complete and splendid performance.

The performance was now in its middle and late stages, at the height of its atmosphere. Everything that had happened before had been forgotten by the audience.

Xue Lingxue stood on the stage, her hands plucking the strings of her high zither. The sound of her music was interspersed with the sound of electric dragons roaming, and the body of the zither shimmered with golden light. She had obviously combined her divine technique with her zither skills, making the sound even more heart-stirring.

As the strings vibrated, a clear radiance fell from the sky, the stars trembled, and countless birds flew from the mountains to dance in the sky, receiving the starlight.

The assisting musicians behind her were also immersed in their performance, draped in five-colored rosy clouds, with a golden dragon coiling on the left and a rainbow crossing on the right.

The entire audience stood up, waving their arms to the rhythm and shouting her name. The atmosphere was so heated that it shook the four fields.

Stirring up a sky full of anomalies, the hearts of the people were in harmony with the Dao.

This was the charm of Nanyin Square!

Halfway up the hillside, Di Nvfeng and Lin Bei were also swaying. The master occasionally whistled, fully displaying the demeanor of a rogue grandmaster.

Chu Liang landed on the ground, looking at the boiling sea of people, he was quite shocked.

“You’re back!” Lin Bei saw him coming and shouted, “Come on! It’s the most exciting part!”

“What’s this song?” Chu Liang asked.

“Fish Dragon Dance!” Lin Bei said, “It’s a combination song created by Miss Xue, it’s quite explosive!”

“Fish Dragon Dance…” Chu Liang repeated with a smile, his expression suddenly changed, “Wait… I think I forgot something.”
