Chapter 124: Dominating CEO

The black spacecraft lost control of the wind sail and its operator, causing its massive body to sway in the air and crash into the edge of Feima Village after a few spins.

The spacecraft was hundreds of zhang away from the ground. Falling from such a height, its massive body immediately shattered and raised countless smoke and dust.

Just now, Yun Taihao unleashed a thunderous strike, immediately intimidating all cultivators and calming their restless hearts.

The crash of the black spacecraft restored the sanity of the scattered cultivators, and they no longer had the courage to kill and rob. They hurriedly scattered and fled.

The once chaotic Feima Village, filled with the sound of killing, quickly became desolate, with only the burning buildings still quietly ablaze.

Yun Taihao in the sky paid no attention to these scattered cultivators. His gaze had long been fixed on the four Foundation Building cultivators from the Seven Killing Sect.

He had endured for so long before taking action, just to give the Seven Killing Sect a profound lesson.

The Foundation Building cultivators had been killing and setting fires in Feima Village, and now they wanted to run when the situation turned bad? How could such a good thing happen?

Yun Taihao didn't rush to chase and kill the Foundation Building cultivators. He needed time to adjust his mana. Just now, he had used all his strength to break the formation and defeat the enemy with a single strike.

While Yun Taihao was adjusting his state, Gao Xian cautiously withdrew his gaze from observing Yun Taihao.

During the previous chaos, many cultivators were using their divine senses to pay attention to Yun Taihao. Gao Xian could boldly observe Yun Taihao.

Now that several Foundation Building cultivators were dead or fleeing, it would be too dangerous for him to stare at Yun Taihao with wide eyes.

The Flower Mirror was very clever, but it was still wise to be cautious when facing a Gold Core cultivator.

Seeing Yun Taihao's mighty display, Gao Xian was truly shocked. The power of the Foundation Building cultivators had already amazed him. But in front of a Gold Core cultivator, the Foundation Building cultivators were fragile and couldn't withstand a single blow.

From this battle, it could be seen that there was a fundamental gap in mana, divine sense, and physical strength between Foundation Building cultivators and Gold Core cultivators.

This gap even exceeded the gap between Foundation Building cultivators and Qi Refining cultivators.

The power of a Gold Core cultivator was too strong. Gao Xian couldn't even understand Foundation Building cultivators, so it was useless to look more. It might even expose himself.

Gao Xian put away his Invisible Robe. He and Qi Niang returned to the cave, only to see Zhou Ye, Zhou Yuling, and Wan Zhen with serious expressions. Wan Yingying's little face was also filled with unease as she tightly held Zhou Yuling's hand.

Yun Taihao's strike was so powerful that it scared all four of them.

They didn't know what had happened and didn't dare to move. Naturally, they were all very nervous.

Gao Xian smiled slightly at everyone. "Good news, Lord Yun has arrived and has wiped out the Seven Killing Sect cultivators."

Everyone found it hard to believe when they heard this, especially Zhou Ye. His old face wrinkled in surprise. "Lord Yun?"

The cave was covered by the Floating Cloud Flag, blocking various sounds. Everyone heard the commotion caused by Yun Taihao earlier, but they couldn't make out what he was saying.

Zhou Ye had been cultivating in the sect for decades and had never seen Yun Taihao. He couldn't help but doubt Gao Xian's words.

"Rest assured, I won't make a mistake. Only Lord Yun has such unparalleled power."

Gao Xian was very certain about this. He said, "Feima Village is still a bit chaotic now. Let's wait until dawn to go back. By then, the situation should be settled."

Everyone thought this was a good idea. It wouldn't be too late to make a decision after seeing the situation in the morning.

Zhou Yuling saw Gao Xian and Zhu Qianniang sitting together and felt a bit unhappy.

She also knew that Zhu Qianniang had a special relationship with Gao Xian.

But since she had never met Zhu Qianniang face to face, she didn't have much feeling about it. Today, she and Zhu Qianniang were in the same room, and Gao Xian was there too, making the atmosphere a bit delicate.

Zhou Yuling felt jealous in her heart, but she had a sense of propriety and knew that this was not the right time or place to throw a tantrum.

If she really lost her temper, it would only make her appear immature. Even Gao Xian might feel disgusted.

Thinking of this, Zhou Yuling smiled and sat down next to Gao Xian with Wan Yingying, "Xian Ge, what exactly happened just now? Can you tell us..."

Gao Xian was also a bit embarrassed. He had been successfully juggling two women, not because of his abilities, but because the two women never crossed paths, saving him countless troubles.

Now that the crisis in Feima Ji had been resolved, he felt completely relaxed, but facing two women, he felt a bit overwhelmed.

Fortunately, Zhu Qiniang had a deep personality and her feelings towards Gao Xian were complicated. Seeing Zhou Yuling getting close to Gao Xian, she was able to hold back her emotions.

At least her expression remained calm and she didn't show any emotional changes.

However, Gao Xian could feel that Qiniang's muscles were slightly tense, and she wasn't as calm as she appeared.

Gao Xian secretly felt fortunate that Qiniang was able to control herself. Otherwise, he wouldn't know what to do if the two women started fighting!

Zhou Yuling also had a sense of propriety. She just sat next to him and didn't make any physical contact, probably out of consideration for Zhou Ye and Wan Zhen.

He chuckled and said, "The battle just now was very exciting. It's a pity you didn't see it."

"Yun Taihao used only one sword to cut through the Seven Kill Sect's flying ship, killing everyone on board with a single strike..."

Fortunately, this battle was exciting enough. Gao Xian casually mentioned it, immediately arousing the strong interest of Zhou Yuling and the others.

Everyone's attention quickly shifted to Yun Taihao. They were all Qi Refining cultivators, and even Zhou Ye, the oldest among them, had never seen a Gold Core cultivator.

They all knew that Gold Core cultivators were powerful, but they weren't clear about just how powerful they were.

Hearing Gao Xian's detailed explanation of the battle, everyone was amazed.

Everyone chatted back and forth like this for most of the night.

Wan Yingying initially listened with great interest, but soon couldn't resist and fell asleep with her head on Zhou Yuling's lap.

Everyone was also tired, and it wasn't convenient to rest in the cave, so they each meditated to recover.

When it was bright outside, they hastily ate some dry rations and returned to Feima Ji together.

The chaos last night had turned half of Feima Ji into ruins.

As they walked, they saw destroyed walls and buildings everywhere, as well as the pitiful corpses.

Especially in the central area of Feima Ji, almost all the houses on that street were destroyed.

This included Zhou's Lingfu Hall, which was also mostly burned.

Seeing this scene, Zhou Ye's face turned ugly. Zhou Yuling was on the verge of tears. She had lived here for several years and had strong feelings for this place.

Gao Xian was lucky. Although the doors and windows of his house were destroyed and the inside was a mess, it was still intact overall.

Wan Zhen's house was the same. Although there were corpses lying in the yard, the house itself was undamaged.

At noon, Li Shuanglin returned to Feima Ji on the Qingmu flying ship.

He was accompanied by a large group of Lianyun Sect cultivators.

Under Li Shuanglin's leadership, the Lianyun Sect quickly regained control of Feima Ji.

The invasion by the Seven Kill Sect had caused great damage to Feima Ji. The resulting chaos almost turned Feima Ji into ruins.

According to incomplete statistics, at least six to seven thousand cultivators died in the chaos.

Fortunately, it was early September and the weather wasn't too cold. The homeless cultivators wouldn't freeze to death.

Li Shuanglin quickly organized manpower to rebuild Feima Ji. With tens of thousands of homeless cultivators as labor, the reconstruction speed was very fast.

Because the Lingfu Hall was burned down, Zhou Ye and Zhou Yuling had been staying at Gao Xian's house during this time.

For Zhou Yuling and Zhu Qiniang to be together was a great torment for Gao Xian.

Two women are important to him, so he shouldn't favor one over the other too much, so as not to hurt anyone's feelings.

It's really difficult for these two boats to stabilize.

Fortunately, Zhu Qijiang is more generous and won't cling to Gao Xian like Zhou Yuling does every day.

With Zhou Ye present, Zhou Yuling also doesn't dare to be too presumptuous. The few of them can still get along peacefully.

After this major disaster, Zhou Ye is extremely disappointed in the Lianyun Sect. The most common thing he says is, "They are just the dogs of the sect, no one would even spare a glance if they died!"

In this chaos, only Zhou Ye and Huang Ying were informed by Gao Xian in advance and escaped disaster. The other disciples of the Lianyun Sect suffered heavy casualties.

The timely appearance of Yun Taihao proves that the Lianyun Sect was prepared for the actions of the Qisha Sect.

It turns out that the upper echelons of the Lianyun Sect only used Zhou Ye and the others as bait to lure the Qisha Sect into taking action first.

The plan was very successful, and Yun Taihao wiped out five Foundation Building cultivators from the other side in one fell swoop.

For a sect like the Qisha Sect, losing five Foundation Building cultivators at once is a huge blow.

Zhou Ye and Huang Ying, as the bait, naturally resent this. But no matter how much they resent, they dare not leave the Lianyun Sect. They still have to continue living in the days to come.

Gao Xian understands their resentment and has a comprehensive understanding of the sect's cruelty. However, he is a little impatient with listening to Zhou Ye and Huang Ying complaining about these things.

The advantage is that after this incident, Zhou Ye and Huang Ying trust and get closer to him even more.

Huang Ying is one thing, but Zhou Ye is his future father-in-law. It's always a good thing to have a good relationship with him.

In October, the central area finally completed its reconstruction. Zhou Ye took Zhou Yuling back to the Lingfu Hall.

Da Niu also returned, and the Gao family's courtyard returned to tranquility.

Only then did Gao Xian have time to sort out the gains from this chaos with Qijiang.

He first killed Yang Qiying and his wife, as well as the Red Snake. Then he killed several batches of Red Snake gang cultivators, and also killed several cultivators in the Wan Array family. In total, he killed more than thirty cultivators this time.

Other cultivators aside, the key is that Yang Qiying and his wife, as well as the Red Snake, were wealthy. They had more than three thousand spirit stones on them.

The robes and swords they had were also of extremely high value.

Yang Qiying and his wife's robes and swords were a matching pair. The grade of the Red Snake's sword and robe was also very high. There was also a bell artifact that could protect the soul.

The most important thing was the pair of green boots in the Red Snake's storage bag. Gao Xian felt that they were clearly a set with his own Green Lotus Crown, Green Lotus Belt, and Green Lotus Sword.

Gao Xian laid out the gains and asked Qijiang to appraise them.

"The Water Sword, Water Robe, Fire Sword, Fire Robe, are all top-grade first-tier. The most rare thing is that the swords and robes are a set, and when combined, they can greatly enhance the power of the artifacts..."

Qijiang quite liked these two sets of artifacts. Sets of artifacts of this grade and level are rare, and both sets of swords and robes are of high quality. When combined, they can be sold for a high price.

She then picked up the Red Snake's red and yellow robe and studied it carefully for a while before saying, "This should be a Huangtang Robe woven from Huangtang wood fibers. It is the most tough and has extremely strong protection. It is difficult for general spells and artifacts to break through."

When she said this, Qijiang was somewhat relieved and said, "Fortunately, you pierced him with a sword, and he couldn't activate the robe's mysterious aura."

Gao Xian chuckled. He aimed his sword at the head precisely to avoid the robe.

"The Huangtang Robe is in perfect condition, with intact inscribed runes. It can be considered a top-grade first-tier. As a protective robe, its value should be around three thousand spirit stones."

Qijiang picked up the Red Snake's sword and looked at it. "This sword should be called the Flame Sword, a top-grade first-tier, worth fifteen hundred spirit stones."

"This bell unexpectedly has the ability to stabilize the mind and protect the soul. The inscribed runes inside are so complex and exquisite, it should be a second-tier artifact..."

Qijiang was not very sure about this, she held the Red Snake's golden bell and studied it for a while.

Finally, she said, "It should be called the Mind-Stabilizing Bell, a good artifact that can protect the soul."

Gao Xian nodded, "The Mind-Settling Bell is indeed remarkable. It can spontaneously react and protect the Red Snake's divine soul after being attacked by my spells."

"Protecting the divine soul is rare for a magical tool. If it's really a second-tier item, it could sell for at least four to five thousand spirit stones..."

Zhu Qiniang handed the Mind-Settling Bell to Gao Xian and said seriously, "You always encounter evil spirits. Don't sell this item, keep it for self-defense."

Taking the golden bell, Gao Xian shook it casually, but it didn't make a sound.

This made Gao Xian curious. Why wouldn't it ring? He tried again and confirmed that it could only produce sound when stimulated by spiritual power related to divine souls.

Such a clever bell also avoided the disadvantage of making noise during normal walking movements.

Gao Xian played with the Mind-Settling Bell with great interest, while Zhu Qiniang focused on identifying various magical tools.

This time, Gao Xian obtained dozens of magical tools, as well as various talismans, elixirs, and so on.

Although their grades were not high, the identification process was quite exhausting.

Seeing Zhu Qiniang working so seriously, Gao Xian leaned over and hung the Mind-Settling Bell's string around her neck.

Zhu Qiniang was a little surprised and turned her head to look at Gao Xian, saying, "This magical tool is too expensive, and I don't need it. If you don't use it, just sell it."

"It's a gift for you."

Seeing that Zhu Qiniang still wanted to refuse, Gao Xian imitated the boss's manner and pressed her lips with his finger, silencing her.

It had to be said that this posture was quite impressive.

Zhu Qiniang had plump and well-textured lips.

"You are my shield. The stronger you are, the safer I am."

Gao Xian said as he handed the Huang Tang robe to Zhu Qiniang, "This one is a wood-element robe. You can have it."

Zhu Qiniang looked deeply at Gao Xian. This version of Gao Xian was a bit exaggerated and felt somewhat strange.

After thinking for a moment, she said, "If it's for Zhou Yuling's sake, you don't have to do this."

"Haha..."

Gao Xian laughed awkwardly and put his arm around Zhu Qiniang's shoulder. Although he was slightly shorter, his arms were long, so this action was quite effortless.

He explained, "We are good brothers. It's only natural to give you gifts. It has nothing to do with Yuling."

Zhu Qiniang nodded with a complicated expression, "Alright."

"Um, I'll keep the Kan Water Sword and Kan Water Robe for myself. Let's sell the rest."

Gao Xian calmly put away the sword and robe. They were both top-grade water-element magical tools and were very suitable for Zhou Yuling.

Since he gave gifts to Zhu Qiniang, he couldn't leave out Yuling.

Feima Town was so chaotic, and although Zhou Yuling rarely went out, she was not very safe. With this sword and robe, she could better protect herself.

Zhu Qiniang understood this and knew that Gao Xian intended to give the sword and robe to Zhou Yuling.

She couldn't help but feel a little sour in her heart, but she and Gao Xian were not ordinary lovers. It was better not to fuss over such trivial matters.

Rarely did Gao Xian show affection, so let him be happy.

Besides, he had already given her the precious Mind-Settling Bell and Huang Tang robe. It proved that she was more important in Gao Xian's heart!

Zhu Qiniang calmly changed the subject, "These magical tools, along with a few storage bags, can probably sell for six thousand spirit stones..."
