On the day itself.
News had spread across the Qing Ming City and the entire city was stunned.
What kind of place was the old town?
Who would have thought that it would be destroyed within a day? There was hearsay that the head of the Urban House Demolition Department was so elated that he could not stop smiling for an entire day. He was floating in the air.
Who did this?
Everyone had different ideas.
The matter occurred too suddenly and no one knew what was actually happening.
After all, Qing Ming City was a small city. Most of the law enforcers were only three-star cultivators and they could not investigate such matters.
However, the higher-ups had already requested the formation of a special task force to investigate this matter.
It was just that…
They did not know that the initiator had already returned to the city.
Well…
No one would bother about a lowly one-star Card Creator. Lu Ming passed the checks very easily. He could feel the one-star cultivator badge on his chest looking more prominent.
After returning to the shop, Xiaobai had already prepared dinner.
“Master, come and eat.”
Xiaobai waved her hands.
“Coming.”
Lu Ming was very satisfied. Xiaobai had shown great improvements in a short time.
In the past, she was a clueless child. Now, she already knew how to boil water, prepare meals, do the dishes, prepare bedding, and create and sell cards. She was such a great disciple!
Of course, he had taught her well.
After the dinner.
Lu Ming then took out his gains for the day to sort them out.
Well…
The card bag of the leader of the Sharks Sect did not have any novel stuff. There were many Energy Cards inside. The stacks of three-star Energy Cards were eye-catching.
It was worth millions of yuan!
Lu Ming was thrilled.
Although his Demolition Card was expensive, it could not be sold. These Energy Cards were true-blue resources!
Humph…
It was no wonder everyone loved to venture into the wild!
Although the risks were high, so were the gains. Look at these resources… Perhaps he should go back and grab more… Forget it. It was too dangerous.
He had to be low-key, low key…
Lu Ming restrained his slightly complacent attitude and then seriously took out the card thrown to him by Wang Xuan.
A four-star card!
This was not the main point. The main point was that Wang Xuan’s ability was not strong. The fact that he could use a strong card meant that the card was specially custom-made for him!
Lu Ming glanced at the back of the card.
True enough!
Although he could not understand the lines as it was for private use, this card was not encrypted. One could easily tell how many layers of lamination it had!
It was successively laminated with many Energy Cards, reducing the energy depletion rate to the lowest!
How horrible was that?!
He had once thought that Charging Card + Bulls Card or other cards could complete the lamination but he failed in the end. This was because the Charging Card could only be placed at the bottom!
There was a limit to the amount of energy that the stairs could withstand!
If the Charging Card was placed on top, along with the increase in energy, the stairs’ connections would not be able to support the other cards and it would definitely collapse!
Therefore..
It was not safe to rely on the Charging Card to reduce the energy depletion rate of a powerful card.
This was because a powerful card would deplete a lot of energy and the connections could not withstand that! In addition, the energy depletion rate of the Charging Card was huge and they could not endure it all the same!
The two cards had to be placed at the bottom!
However, he had not thought of that. People could actually use the energy lines to reduce the requirements!
This card…
It was very valuable!
Lu Ming sensed it and it only required two thousand points of energy!
This meant that…
When Lu Ming achieved two thousand points of energy, he could use this card! The powerful Attack Card that Wang Xuan’s family had prepared for him!
He had gained a lot!
Lu Ming was thrilled.
This card was the greatest reward.
With this…
He was not afraid of encountering even four-star cultivators. At the very least, he had means to retaliate now!
However, this also raised Lu Ming’s vigilance. He felt fortunate that Wang Xuan was already very weak at that time. Otherwise, if Wang Xuan were to deal with him using this card…
He felt a lingering fear in his heart at the thought of it.
“I have to be more careful next time.”
Lu Ming learned from the lesson.
His understanding of this world was still insufficient.
“I’m still too weak.”
Lu Ming was filled with emotions.
He knew deep inside that he was not strong enough. It seemed that he had to study harder.
Oh.
Right, since I am rich now, I could buy a testing machine tomorrow.
Lu Ming rubbed his head. Xiaobai had shown great improvements in a short time. He also needed to study and create cards. If he did not even have testing and certification machines, it would be very troublesome.
Well…
He did not know if the principal would reimburse him for that…
It was very late at night.
Lu Ming did not study for too long.
He had exhausted himself by quite a bit today and needed to have a good rest.
At the thought of this…
He closed his shop early and proceeded to rest.
…
At this very moment…
In a certain city.
“Hello everyone, welcome to the news.
There was an unforeseen event in Qing Ming City today. The old town was reduced to ruins. There were heavy casualties and deaths. A local sect by the name of Sharks Sect had been wiped out without any survivors…
According to the investigations, the energy flow exceeded two hundred thousand points. A four-star and above cultivator could have taken action.
This is a hiding place of evil people and practices. There is a high possibility that the local sects unintentionally provoked a powerful cultivator and caused a huge uproar. At the moment, the relevant authorities are looking into the matter…”
…
Click!
The chopsticks in Wang Tianjun’s snapped in half.
“What’s the matter?” His wife, who was beside him, asked.
“Xiaoxuan…”
Wang Tianjun’s face was ghastly pale. “Xiaoxuan is there! Qing Ming City! The Sharks Sect!”
“What? Xiaoxuan?”
His wife’s expression changed drastically. She glanced at the news and nearly fainted. Wang Tianjun quickly held his wife to the bed. His countenance was very ugly too.
“Four-star and above. Qing Ming City…”
There was a cold glint in Wang Tianjun’s eyes.
How could such a powerful person appear in that kind of place?!
Unfortunately, he appeared!
Unfortunately, there was a massacre in the town!
Damn it!
Could it be targeted at him?
His enemies had chased him to Qing Ming City?! It was impossible. Even his wife did not know about Xiaoxuan’s whereabouts. Who was the one who had leaked this?
Click!
The veins on Wang Tianjun’s forehead were bulging. “No matter who you are. I must tear you to pieces…”
At this very moment…
The doors of the house suddenly opened.
Wang Tianjun’s intense rage suddenly froze. “X-xiaoxuan?”
His son was still alive!
He was elated.
As long as he was still alive, as long as he was still alive…
What happened to that damned Qing Ming City?
“Dad.”
Wang Xuan looked distraught. “Am I a very bad person?”
Wang Tianjun was a little confused.
Did this child suffer a brain damage?
Whether he was bad or not, didn’t he know it already?
However, he pondered deeply for a while before answering seriously, “It depends on the definition of ‘bad’. In the eyes of many people, of course, you are a bad guy. However, in my eyes…”
Wang Xuan looked at his father.
“You are not a good man too.”
Wang Tianjun sighed.
He knew his son very well. Besides stirring up trouble everyday, he was not capable of anything else.
Why did he go out this time?
The few of them had heard that the deceased senior of the Liu family was very powerful and could have left behind many great treasures. Hence, they went to dig up other people’s ancestral grave???
The most shocking thing was that the person leading the group was the grandson of the Liu family!
What kind of appalling action was this?
Was this something that a human would do?
Of course, the elders in the family could not understand their actions. The old Liu family was enraged and threatened to skin them alive. The few lads then escaped and went into hiding.
Wang Xuan was silent.
“What happened in Qing Ming City?” Wang Tianjun asked.
“The people from the Sharks Sect committed all sorts of evil doings.
I find them an eyesore. Hence, I used the four-star card that you gave me. I didn’t expect that place to be so dilapidated to the point where it couldn’t withstand this kind of attack. It totally collapsed,” said Wang Xuan.
So, that was what happened.
Wang Tianjun had a moment of realization. It was no wonder…
It was fine that the people from Sharks Sect were dead.
“Dad, I want to cultivate hard,” Wang Xuan suddenly said seriously.
“Oh?”
Wang Tianjun was surprised.
He was very clear about how rogue his son was. He wanted to actually take the initiative to cultivate?
“What do you want to cultivate?” Wang Tianjun asked.
“The skill that you wanted me to inherit,” said Wang Xuan seriously.
Wang Tianjun was stunned. “Are you mad?”
What was he saying?
It was a very powerful ability. However, it was extremely tough to cultivate. The cultivator had to endure what the average man could not endure before they could become successful!
He achieved his current success because of this!
However…
Wang Xuan?
He was not even willing to cultivate normally, much less to handle this kind of thing!
He remembered this damned child’s words the first time that he wanted to teach it to him:
“Even if I, Wang Xuan, am killed by others, die in my enemy’s trap or lose my life due to a woman, I won’t touch this self-torture thing of yours!
You are my biological father and you actually want to teach me to become a masochist?
Let me tell you. If you make me cultivate this again, I will ask mom to divorce you!”
But now…
This child actually took the initiative to request to cultivate this?
Wang Tianjun was a little confused.
He had some reservations as he glanced at the bedroom that his wife was in. Did the mother-and-son pair find another family already?
“I’ll return to my room.”
Wang Xuan looked down-hearted.
He was clear that only physical suffering could reduce the guilt in his heart.
Wang Tianjun was full of doubts as he watched his son walking into the bedroom.
After a long time…
He pondered deeply for a while before calling his long-time friend. “Hello, is this Old Zhang? Haha. Do you have time to make a trip here? Sigh. It’s nothing much. There seems to be something wrong with my son.
Oh, right. Can you also check whether my daughter-in-law has come into contact with anyone recently… What are you talking about? It’s just that he had been conned out of some money.
Right, right. Just pass me the information when the time comes. That will do. It will be hard for you. Appreciate it.”
