Chaos!
After the Tianqing Ruzheng Formation was broken, the entire Qingzhu Mountain Market was in chaos.
The wandering cultivators are the most humble, the most lowly, yet also the most cunning and vicious group of cultivators.
After realizing that the Situ Family was beyond redemption today, greed was ignited in people's hearts, instantly causing a great turmoil.
Cultivators were being killed everywhere, shops were being looted!
"It's really a mess!"
Fang Xi cursed and quickly fled outside the market.
Taking advantage of the Second Order Formation being broken, it was a good opportunity to escape!
He didn't want to directly cross through the market, who knows if the Foundation Building stage cultivators had released their divine sense, occasionally scanning this area?
If his secret ability to cross through was discovered, wouldn't it be a big joke?
Like Fang Xi, there were also some wandering cultivators fleeing, most of them were cautious and prudent individuals.
Swish swish!
Fang Xi's body technique was as fast as lightning, relying on his camouflage clothing, he moved without a trace.
Although everyone was a cultivator, at this moment, not many would use a spiritual eye technique on themselves.
And, he was running outward, the further away from the chaotic area, the safer it would be.
Along the way, Fang Xi passed by the slum area, feeling somewhat regretful, "The spirit rice I planted, and the buried wine..."
At this moment, the slum area was also in chaos, many cultivators looking at the flames soaring in the Qingzhu Mountain Market, with expressions of anxiety and unease.
At the same time, more spirit farmers quietly returned to their rooms, picking up their magical tools.
"Grandpa... Grandpa, don't leave!"
Outside a fence, a six or seven-year-old boy tightly held onto an old farmer's trouser leg.
"Good boy, Grandpa is not doing this for himself, you listen to your father and hide well, wait for Grandpa to come back!"
The old farmer's eyes were deep, holding a long-handled old smoking pot magical tool with a yellow brass and white jade mouthpiece in his hand, he rushed towards the market without hesitation.
He had lived long enough, this time he might die, but he might also bring back enough spiritual items to make his grandson's path much smoother.
"Head of the family..."
In the slum area, there were occasional cries of women.
After hearing it many times, Fang Xi's face gradually became numb, then he continued on his way.
He had made up his mind, once he was far away from the battlefield, he would immediately run to Daliang!
He had to wait for this chaotic period to completely pass before considering what to do next.
Boom!
Just as Fang Xi ran out of the slum area, suddenly a loud noise came from behind him, the terrifying surge of spiritual power made his heart tremble fiercely.
Then, he saw countless streaks of light flying out of the market, fleeing in all directions.
"Damn, flying magical tools are really something, huh?"
"Well, it's quite impressive!"
Watching one cultivator after another controlling flying magical tools, turning into streaks of light passing over his head, Fang Xi couldn't help but comment slightly sourly.
After leaving Qingzhu Mountain, Fang Xi suddenly raised his eyebrows.
Behind him, three streaks of light were entangled, fighting... in the blink of an eye, they flew past him and continued forward.
He actually recognized one of the cultivators controlling the dark clouds!
The man was dressed as a servant, with only a cultivation base in the early Qi Refining stage, but at this moment, he kept taking out talismans from his storage bag, bombarding a green figure controlling an iron leaf boat in front of him wildly.
It turned out to be Qi Yingsong, a waiter from the Baiqiao Tower!
This person had recruited bandits to rob him before. If Fang Xi hadn't broken through to the Second Layer of Body Refining, he might have died!
This enmity must be avenged!
"Scoundrel, you can't escape!"
Yingsong was mainly providing support, beside him, there was a burly man controlling a flying shuttle, with a cultivation base reaching the late Qi Refining stage!
At this moment, this man was staring at the green figure, constantly spewing foul language.
And that green figure, Fang Xi was also quite familiar with, it was actually Situ Qingqing!
"It's actually her? Was she chased out all the way?"
"Indeed, the situation of the Situ Family is already very bad, is she breaking through to escape for her life?"
Fang Xi looked at the burly man in the late Qi Refining stage, his expression full of fear.
This man was wearing a yellow hemp robe, his eyes like copper bells, and a twisted scar on his face like a centipede, especially with a cultivation base reaching the late Qi Refining stage, he was not someone easy to provoke!
Compared to him, Situ Qingqing was only in the middle Qi Refining stage, she was not much of a help at all.
"For the sake of an enemy, taking such risks, is it not a good idea?"
"Should I just forget about it? It's not good to squeeze a ripe persimmon now, right?"
Fang Xi deliberately took a half-circle, preparing to quietly leave.
As for Situ Qingqing?
What did her life and death have to do with him?
Just as he was about to take a detour, there was a new change in the battle in mid-air.
Situ Qingqing, riding the iron leaf boat in front, looked pale, glanced back at the approaching burly man in yellow robes and Yingsong, gritted her teeth, took out a gray, dragon-eye-sized round bead from her storage bag, and flicked it behind her.
At the same time, she pinched a tactic, a spirit talisman flew up, turning into countless green pine needles, shooting towards the back.
"Child's play!"
The burly man in the late Qi Refining stage sneered, took out a golden long sword magical tool, picked off the pine needles one by one, then attacked Situ Qingqing.
But when he saw the black ball mixed in with the pine needles, his expression suddenly changed, "Not good... Yin Thunder Seed?"
Boom!
In the sky, a black thunder suddenly flashed.
The burly man's charred body fell from the sky.
At the same time, his last desperate golden long sword magical tool pierced through three green shields around Situ Qingqing, the sword light fell, making Situ Qingqing's face even paler, as if she had no trace of blood, the iron leaf boat also swayed, and finally fell to the ground after Yingsong took out another talisman to attack.
"This woman is really troublesome... Oh no, the third brother of the Kou family's three heroes died here, I'm in big trouble in the future... His two brothers are not easy to deal with."
Yingsong landed in the black cloud, looking at the unconscious Situ Qingqing in front of him, as well as the blood on her chest, he still hesitated to approach.
"This woman is not right, obviously only in the middle Qi Refining stage, but her wealth is so abundant, could she be a direct descendant of the Situ Family? No... to be able to produce a one-time magical tool like the Yin Thunder Seed, which can threaten even the Foundation Building stage cultivators, could she be the direct granddaughter of the Situ Family's ancestor?"
Yingsong analyzed the situation, but his expression was very excited, "If I capture this woman, it will be a great achievement in the family, haha..."
This time, the Baiqiao Tower officially broke off from the Situ Family, which actually left him a bit confused before.
After all, how could the upper echelons of the family tell a low-level person like him?
And the battle happened unexpectedly.
When he saw the Tianqing Ruzheng Formation activate, Qi Yingsong really thought he was done for.
But he didn't expect the situation to turn around, his side had the upper hand, and the Situ Family suffered a big defeat.
In the end, after a chaotic battle, the Situ Family members broke through separately, his uncle also went to chase an important figure.
Yingsong was a bit timid, only daring to follow the high-level Qi Refining expert from before, chasing after a middle Qi Refining female cultivator.
This situation seemed like an easy capture, but he didn't expect such a reversal.
"This woman..."
Just as Yingsong was about to move forward, suddenly, a blue jade pendant on his body suddenly roared.
A layer of azure light shield appeared instantly, enveloping his whole body.
Before Yingsong's expression could change, he felt a huge force hit the shield, making the jade pendant emit a mournful sound!
"Uh? A self-defense magical tool? The Baiqiao Tower is really wealthy..."
A somewhat familiar voice came.
Yingsong looked over and saw a stranger cultivator wearing a face mask, slowly retracting his fist.
But that voice, inexplicably familiar.
In an instant, the ability of cultivators to remember everything at a glance made him recall, "You're the cultivator who sold demonic beast meat?"
When the two bandit cultivators he had found before disappeared, Yingsong almost thought they had taken the plundered money and run away!
Now it seemed that his uncle had really underestimated them!
This cultivator was a ruthless person who had emerged from a mountain of corpses and a sea of blood!
Fang Xi was not polite, one punch after another, fiercely smashing onto the light shield.
"Friend... let's talk things out!"
"Behind me is the Qi Family of Baiqiao!"
"I... I can compensate!"
Yingsong explained in a panicked expression, while preparing to tear apart a few talismans.
But Fang Xi didn't give him a chance at all, he roared, his true energy highly condensed.
"Secret Technique: Hunyuan Wuji!"
Bang!
A terrifying force far exceeding the previous one fell on the water-blue shield.
Crackling!
The blue jade pendant showed countless cracks, turning into powder in an instant.
Fang Xi's momentum did not diminish, two fingers directly pierced Yingsong's throat.
"Ugh..."
Yingsong's eyes were filled with horror, slowly falling down.
As his hand loosened, a few talismans slowly floated down.
"This is also the advantage of body cultivation, the thought arrives instantly... the speed of action is very fast, the enemy can't react in time."
Fang Xi flicked out a fireball, destroying the body, then picked up the storage bag on Yingsong's body, thinking about the gains and losses of this battle, "Of course... the concealment function of the camouflage clothing is also very important, cultivators who keep their spiritual eyes open all the time are rare, being able to deceive the naked eye of ordinary people can provide great convenience for body cultivators to launch surprise attacks..."
Although the storage bag was good, Fang Xi didn't have time to slowly erase the magical imprints on it.
And, there were the magical tools and storage bags of the previous Qi Refining expert, that was the real treasure!
After finishing everything, Fang Xi looked towards the direction where Situ Qingqing was lying, and suddenly spoke, "Friend, had enough rest?"
"Truly, nothing can escape from Friend's eyes!" Situ Qingqing slowly got up, although her hair was disheveled and blood was flowing from the corner of her mouth, her temperament was still extraordinary.
"I have no intention of being enemies with Friend, and there's no need to use the last means against me."
At this moment, Fang Xi was disguised, not afraid of being discovered by Situ Qingqing, and he laughed loudly.
"I am Situ Qingqing, and I must thank Friend for saving my life." Situ Qingqing smiled gently, giving a slight bow.
She was a very clever woman, seeing Fang Xi wearing a mask, she knew that the other party wanted to hide his identity, so she didn't ask much, just took out a token, "This is a token of my Situ Family, please keep it, there will be a repayment in the future!"
Throwing out the token, Fang Xi didn't bother to pick it up, letting it fall to the ground.
The scene became a bit awkward.
"I didn't intend to save you on purpose..." Fang Xi looked at the token representing the Situ Family's favor lying on the ground, as if he saw the collapse of the Situ Family's power.
Yes... what use was there for a family on the brink of extinction to owe favors?
He was more interested in making a profit!
Therefore, Fang Xi smiled, "Fair lady, there's no need to be polite. If you want to repay, why not tell me what happened? I'm truly confused about the chaos in the market..."
