Long Aotien expected a fierce battle tonight, but not this fierce…
Tian Ning and two others chased the Guards like madmen, their actions as if talismans were free, even Long Kangnian joined this "sticking" fun, Long Aotien won without even drawing his sword.
Seeing Long Biao and Long Juncai already bound by Shi Qinxin, Long Aotien chuckled helplessly.
He suddenly felt it was rather meaningless: “One of you is at Golden Core, the other at Foundation Establishment Completion, that’s it?”
They were taken down by a few talismans?
“Even if your cultivation bases were forcibly increased by that disgusting thing, you shouldn’t be this weak…” Long Aotien laughed.
Long Biao and Long Juncai really wanted to roll their eyes at him!
Heh—how many people could withstand that kind of perverted talisman?
And it was as if they were inexhaustible. Whose talisman-obsessed family member would carry so many talismans when going out?
Long Biao, being older, patiently warned: “If something happens to us tonight, the Main Family will surely notice. Aotien, do you really want to reach the point of breaking with the Main Family?”
Long Aotien ignored him, took a Vomiting and Diarrhea Talisman from Tian Ning and applied it!
Showing filial piety to his father in advance…
To stop him from being stubborn and arrogant at this moment!
As soon as the Vomiting and Diarrhea Talisman was applied, it immediately took effect. Long Juncai, seeing his father's miserable state, immediately dared not utter a word.
The subsequent action was the cleanup of the Long Clan. Long Aotien stated that he alone could handle it, and Tian Ning and the others could return to Wanjian Mountain early.
Tian Ning didn't expect the Long Clan matter to be resolved so easily. Senior Brother Four said he would organize all the crimes committed by the Long Clan over the years and hand them over to the Beast Taming Sect.
Although Long Biao only controlled a branch family, the evil deeds they committed were countless.
In Long Biao's study alone, countless records were found of Long Family Members offering missing Cultivators to the Main Family!
“…What exactly did they make these Cultivators do?” Seeing the shocking number, what exactly were Shi Qinxin and the others plotting behind the scenes?
Long Aotien shook his head. No matter how he pressed Long Biao, the latter insisted that he didn't know the situation at the Main Family.
Tian Ning wanted to stay a while longer; there was nothing urgent, so she could wait for Senior Brother Four to organize all the evidence and hand it over to the Beast Taming Sect before leaving.
However, Long Aotien asked them to take Long Kangnian back to the Sect first: “He is still young… I don’t want him to see his brother send his own father to his death.”
“Leave the rest to me.”
Even though he said so, Shi Qinxin was still uneasy: “But you're alone in the Long Clan, what if something happens?”
“Nothing will happen, I know what I'm doing,” Long Aotien reassured her: “You and Junior Sister have already helped me solve a big problem, and besides, I still have a Dimensional Pouch of talismans from Senior Brother Two, if I encounter trouble, I won't be unable to escape, will I?”
Tian Ning inexplicably felt that he was acting strangely, staring at him for a long time—
“Junior Sister, what kind of look is that… I’ll go back immediately after I hand everything over to the Beast Taming Sect! I’m not the kind of person who would fight to the death with the Main Family!” He said, chuckling dryly and scratching his head.
Tian Ning felt something was wrong, but she couldn't put her finger on it.
It was like Long Aotien’s actions; they had already controlled all the cultivators in the Long Mansion last night, and the Main Family wouldn't notice anything unusual in the short term, but his eagerness to have them leave, was it really just to prevent Long Kangnian from seeing him personally deal with Long Biao?
It was clear that Long Aotien really wanted them to leave immediately, because Zhizi bought back the storybook Tian Ning had been longing for early that morning.
For the first time, Tian Ning felt uninterested in her beloved storybook. Even after Long Aotien specially sent them off on the flying ship, Tian Ning, unusually, didn't immediately go to read her storybook, nor did she draw talismans, but instead she stood alone on the ship's deck, feeling the wind.
She felt like she had missed some key information.
—
After sending Tian Ning and the others away, Long Aotien didn't go back, but went to the Main Family with Zhizi.
Zhizi changed into a Wanjian Sect Disciple's uniform. She covered her face with a thin veil, and followed behind Long Aotien the whole time.
“Zhizi, do you regret it?” Long Aotien stopped and suddenly asked.
Zhizi shook her head: “This life of mine was given by Madam. They killed Madam, and I have no regrets being able to avenge her.”
Long Aotien took out a pill from his Dimensional Pouch that could temporarily force a cultivation base increase. For so many years, he had been waiting for this moment, even if it meant dying together… but there was no need to involve Senior Sister Three and Junior Sister.
Zhizi pretended to be asleep, and Long Aotien carried her into the Main Family. Long Xin came out smiling to greet them: “Aotien Brother, you finally came to your senses.”
His fervent gaze fell on Zhizi, urging them to go inside.
“Aotien Brother, after completing this great deed, you will surely gain the Master's favor! At that time, don’t say Nascent Soul, even Transformation God cultivation, the Master can raise you to…”
Long Xin kept chattering. Since the Master had been looking in the direction of Wanjian Sect and constantly getting angry about wanting to eat a month ago, they had lost interest in other foods and had been longing for this one.
Now, they finally got it.
You see, the Long Clan specifically spent many Spirit Stones to find out that on that day, Wanjian Sect was invaded by Demonic Cultivators. Within a radius of hundreds of miles, all the swords of Wanjian Sect flew into the air to resist the Demonic Cultivators. This ability could only be achieved by someone with Innate Sword Bone.
But no matter how much they inquired, Wanjian Sect kept it completely secret, and they had no idea who had the Innate Sword Bone.
The only useful information was that the person with the Innate Sword Bone was a newly admitted disciple of Wanjian Sect this year, so they threatened with Long Kangnian's life to trick Long Aotien into bringing the person to the Long Clan…
“Master! The person you want has been delivered.” Long Xin flatteringly walked to the Monster, seemingly not seeing the ugly body, his heart full of flattery.
Long Aotien followed him down to the underground chamber, seeing the scene before him, he felt like vomiting!
“Where is it? Where is it?” Countless voices came from one mouth, men, women, children, all the lives it had eaten.
Long Xin pointed to Zhizi, who was held in Long Aotien's arms: “Master, it’s here!”
“Wrong!” The Monster didn't see the food it had been longing for and immediately let out a sharp roar: “Liar! She doesn't smell right, she’s not it!”
Before Long Xin could react, facing the ugly Monster, Long Aotien mobilized his Spiritual Energy, forcibly activating his cultivation base enhanced by the pill. Today, he would perish with the entire filthy Clan!
Long Xin's face changed drastically: “Not good, Master, he’s going to self-destruct!”
The moment Long Xin spoke, the cultivation base Long Aotien had forcibly activated began to plummet rapidly. Especially being so close to the Monster, he could clearly feel that his cultivation base was being devoured by the Monster…

“Senior Sister Tian Ning, are you worried about Brother? He promised me that nothing would happen!” Long Kangnian sat beside Tian Ning, seeing her constantly looking towards the Long Clan’s direction.
“It’s just that I feel Senior Brother Four is strange, like he was rushing us to leave.” Tian Ning spoke truthfully.
With Long Aotien’s personality that loves to show off, when encountering problems, he likes to shoulder them alone.
Just like on the night they first met, even though he couldn't beat Senior Brother, he was the most stubborn with his mouth, yet in order to protect Master, he stepped forward.
Long Kangnian wasn’t good at comforting girls; he could only use his own experience to guide Tian Ning: “Before, I always felt that Brother was hiding things from me, and not letting me know anything was excessive… but after I really knew what my father did behind my back, I was very confused… I even felt that I might protect him because of my cowardice.”
Long Kangnian turned to Tian Ning and said sincerely: “That’s when I knew that Brother didn’t tell me anything to protect me. So Senior Sister Tian Ning, let’s trust him together, believe that he can handle it.”
As the saying goes, sincerity is a Finishing Move.
Faced with a young man's sincerity, Tian Ning's uneasy heart felt much better.
“Okay…”
She spoke, looking at the faint smile on Long Kangnian's face. However, the next second, she seemed to see… something moving under the skin of that face!
