Junior Uncle is too cunning.

Chapter 54 Settlement

Indeed, old age without death is thievery; we can't wait any longer.

Seeing Chen Fusheng deep in thought, Liu Yishou assumed Chen Fusheng was afraid, and his smile grew wider. "Of course, just as you said, we don't really have much enmity between us. With your talent, as long as you swear an oath to the Heavenly Dao and pledge allegiance to me from now on, I am not a person who kills indiscriminately. This is good for both of us!"

Chen Fusheng was now completely convinced by Liu Yishou. He glanced at him curiously, wondering how he could be so confident as to ask Liu to pledge his allegiance. What gave him the right? Was he just being arrogant?

Without uttering any more words, Chen Fusheng coldly said, "Make your move," and quickly retreated behind him.

Liu Yishou and the others were also stunned by Chen Fusheng's order, and became suspicious. However, seeing Chen Fusheng retreat, their doubts lessened, and they sneered, "Trying to run? Is that possible? Attack!"

Just as the four were about to give chase, Li Shundao's voice rang out from within the formation, "'Wealth can move mountains,' collect, collect, collect!"

The Five Elements Divine Thunder Talisman in Liu Yishou's hand disappeared first, followed by the various spiritual treasures and spiritual garments in their hands... one by one they vanished. Finally, even the magic array was taken away, revealing the four people who had set up the array outside.

Liu Yishou had already sensed the danger. He hadn't expected that Chen Fusheng would have a powerful cultivator by his side. His Five Elements Divine Thunder Talisman had disappeared without him noticing, and even the high-grade spiritual treasure he had refined over the years was now out of reach. If it were aimed at his vital organs... Chen Fusheng's cunning was truly terrifying!

He shouted "Retreat!" to Liu Yishui and quickly retreated.

Chen Fusheng stopped in his tracks, glanced at Liu Yishou and the others with a cold smile, and slowly uttered a single word: "Disperse."

Seven cold lights flashed rapidly from his sleeve, and he continued, "Fall," "Gather," "Combine."

Looking at Liu Yishou and the others who were already surrounded by the Big Dipper Sword, a cold glint flashed in his eyes, "Kill."

The seven Qingfeng swords spun rapidly, and in just one round trip, several corpses fell into the formation. Now, only the brothers Liu Yishou and Liu Yishui are still alive.

"Fellow Daoist, Fellow Daoist Huogong, please spare us this time for the sake of Chairman Peng. I beg you to show mercy. I can give you all my savings from these years, and as for that rebellious son Liu An, he can be dealt with at your disposal once he returns. I swear to heaven, I only ask that you... please..."

Before he could finish speaking, the Seven Star Formation had already started moving. After a few rounds, Liu Yishou and his companion fell into the formation. Not feeling reassured, he had Qingfeng Sword strike each of them with a sword.

Seeing that there were no survivors in the formation, Chen Fusheng quickly walked over. At this moment, Li Shundao, who had been hiding underground, also emerged. The two quickly cleaned up the crime scene, cremated and destroyed the bodies, and left the battlefield.

Over the next three days, Chen Fusheng successfully lured Liu An out using the communication jade token in Liu Yishou's hand, eliminating this potential threat. After observing for a while, he returned to Donghai Town.

Chen Fusheng went directly to the Dao Alliance Auction House instead of the hotel, wanting to inquire about the house. He entered the guest room, sent someone to inform Sanbao, and sat quietly waiting.

A moment later, footsteps sounded outside the door. Before the person arrived, the voice preceded them: "Fellow Daoist, why didn't you inform me in advance that you were coming? I could have received you earlier."

Chen Fusheng also stood up at this moment. After all, Sanbao would be his partner in the future, and he had to show him the respect he deserved.

He smiled and said, "I just got back too. I came here to ask you about the house I asked you to inquire about last time. How's it going?"

The two sat down again. Sanbao took out a jade pot and poured Chen Fusheng a cup of wine. He gestured and said, "I've already asked about this. There's no rush. I just got a pot of good wine a few days ago. Please, fellow Daoist, have a taste."

Chen Fusheng looked at the clear, water-like wine glass, picked it up, and slowly brought it to his lips. He took a deep sniff, and a cool sensation entered his mind. He took a small sip, his eyes lit up, and he poured the whole glass into his mouth. He took a gentle sip and exclaimed, "Good wine!"

Looking at Chen Fusheng's appearance, Sanbao's smile deepened. It was worth the effort he had put in to find someone to exchange for this pot of "clear spring water".

Since Chen Fusheng made him his weapon-refining agent, Sanbao had kept it in mind. However, he also knew that for someone like Chen Fusheng, in addition to doing his job well, the most important thing was to maintain a good personal relationship with him.

In Sanbao's opinion, it would be too vulgar to give Chen Fusheng, a master craftsman, immortal stones directly. Besides, craftsmen and alchemists are wealthy professions and don't need his meager gifts.

When giving gifts, one must cater to the recipient's preferences. He discovered that in addition to collecting materials for refining weapons, Chen Fusheng also had a love for wine, according to his observations and research. Otherwise, he wouldn't have stayed in the hotel for so long, drinking wine almost every meal, and all of them were famous brands.

The wine he treated himself to last time was Wuliangye, which is particularly scarce these days, so he asked someone to specially exchange it for a few jugs of Qingquan from the western region of Dongsheng Shenzhou.

"Fellow Daoist, how is it? Not bad, right?" He asked while pouring Chen Fusheng another cup.

Chen Fusheng was fully aware of Sanbao's intention to send him wine. However, this "Qingquan" wine was indeed quite good. Not only was it refreshing and sweet, but it also had the effect of cleansing and refining the primordial spirit. Although the effect on Chen Fusheng was minimal, drinking it for a long time could still bring him considerable benefits.

Moreover, there are very few pills that can affect the primordial spirit; otherwise, the Fusion Spirit Pill wouldn't be so precious. Not to mention, there are wines that can be drunk. Putting aside everything else, just based on these points, "Qingquan" can be said to be a famous wine that is no less than "Wuliangye".

Sanbao's painstaking efforts were truly commendable, so Chen Fusheng didn't deliberately hide the satisfaction on his face. He eagerly downed another cup, let out a long sigh, and said, "Good wine, truly good wine. Not only is it clear and sweet, but it also has a certain benefit to the primordial spirit. This is the first time I've ever tasted it. Fellow Daoist, do you have any more? Could you spare a few jugs for me?"

Sanbao looked at Chen Fusheng with admiration, "Fellow Daoist, you truly deserve to be called a connoisseur of wine. You were able to discern the three flavors in the wine at a glance."

"I still have a few bottles of 'Clear Spring' in stock, I'll share them with you, fellow Daoist."

Chen Fusheng happily accepted the gift and then gave Sanbao two bottles of Wuliangye liquor. In this way, their friendship deepened.

After having a few drinks, Sanbao took Chen Fusheng to see the house, which was quite far from the Dao Alliance.

By walking, Sanbao introduced the house to Chen Fusheng. The previous occupant was a True Immortal cultivator from the Dao Alliance who recently broke through to the Profound Immortal realm. He voluntarily applied to leave Donghai Town, a border town, and moved to the central region. The house was left behind. Because it was located in a remote area with few residents around, no one had come to live there for a long time!

However, it perfectly meets Chen Fusheng's housing purchase conditions. Moreover, the house is not only quiet, but also has an exquisite courtyard and a beautiful environment. The interior space is also large, so it will be no problem to cultivate a few acres of land and raise some spirit beasts in the future.

Most importantly, a small fire vein was actually drawn into the courtyard, and a weapon-refining room was installed on it. This would save a lot of effort in weapon refining in the future. Chen Fusheng was worried that since he had the "Frost Flame" and weapon refining was no problem, what would happen if Li Shundao wanted to refine weapons after he left?

He glanced at the three treasures beside him, nodded in satisfaction, and didn't ask whether the weapon-refining room was there originally or whether the three treasures had installed it later; none of that mattered.

What satisfied Chen Fusheng the most was that the purchase of the house allowed him to see Sanbao's keen insight and ability to execute plans in advance. He believed that entrusting the weapon-refining business to him in the future would be no problem, and it would also save him some trouble.

The purchase contract has been renewed, and this small house in the city is now mine.

After Sanbao left, Chen Fusheng checked the place thoroughly again, and even had Zhu Wuneng's divine eyes examine it twice more before he felt at ease.

They took out the various formations they had prepared beforehand, and set up the preventative formation first, then the illusion formation, the defensive formation, and finally used seven Qingfeng swords to set up a Big Dipper formation to end the defensive work.

With the formation he had set up, even a Golden Immortal could be trapped for a short while, enough time for Li Shundao to escape with ease.

After readjusting the weapon-refining room, Chen Fusheng finally stopped.

He took out a storage ring and handed it to Li Shundao, then took out several dozen storage bags and placed them in his hand. This time, he gave Li Shundao more than half of his net worth, plus the nameless cauldron and the few spiritual treasures that were specially given to him.

As long as Li Shundao doesn't act too recklessly in the future, he should be able to keep his life, and Li Shundao can leave in peace.
