Chapter 70: A Little Bit of Small Gains!

Su Ping did not kill Niu Wu on the spot.

Instead, after breaking the legs of Niu Wu and a few others with the highest cultivation among the scattered cultivators, he separated them for interrogation.

If there were any differences, he would bring the two individuals out for confrontation, and then send the liar on his way with a punch.

The underground storage of this manor was filled with the corpses of men and women who were killed by these bandits.

Most of the people still alive in the hall were attractive mortals, but these bandits did not show any mercy. These mortals were all on the verge of death, suffering in pain.

Su Ping had no psychological burden in sending these bandits on their way.

Under his iron fist, the little secrets of Niu Wu's team were basically exposed.

Perhaps as the leader, Niu Wu had hidden some secrets that allowed him to lead the team to prosper. For example, colluding with local bosses, or even having the tacit approval of outer sect disciples or even elders.

However, Su Ping was not interested in these. He only needed to know where the things stolen by these bandits were.

Therefore, when Niu Wu thought he was being clever and discovered a hidden secret from an ancient relic in the mortal world, Su Ping immediately cut him off, kicking Niu Wu's throat and ending his wicked life.

He lightly hummed and left a message:

"Just a scattered cultivator, and you know about the hidden secrets of ancient relics?"

"To save your own life, can't you come up with a more reliable reason?"

Su Ping retracted his foot and swept over the bandits on the ground who had lost their ability to move and were waiting to die.

He had no intention of wasting time here, so he took out his storage bag and put in a portion of the stolen goods and most of the sealed artifacts.

Then, he left the manor directly and headed straight to the several bandit strongholds that had been interrogated.

These bandit strongholds were mostly located in deep mountains and old forests.

There were strong bows and powerful crossbows, as well as rolling logs and falling rocks.

But they couldn't stop Su Ping, who had already tempered his body to the fifth level.

Under the thunderstorm, Su Ping swept through the six nests left by Niu Wu in one night.

He also found many sealed artifacts inside.

Obviously, during this time, they had also been looting wealthy households and were trying to contribute to the cause of eradicating evil.

"These bandits deserve to die. Don't they know they are hindering the war between the cultivation world and the demonic world?"

"This is clearly an act of treason!"

"Sigh, in order to make up for the progress they have hindered, let me take these sealed artifacts and purify them before returning them to the merit monument."

Su Ping shed tears and took out a storage bag specifically for storing sealed artifacts.

Then, he directly returned to the Golden Sparrow City along the same path.

Because he had the judgment of the fishing spot on Xuan Turtle Island.

On the way, Su Ping did not occasionally run to the mountain ditch to fish for good luck like before. Coupled with his cultivation improvement, he was much faster than before.

The day after Su Ping left.

After the rain cleared, the nearby towns' cultivators who learned of the news from the survivors rushed to the scene.

When they walked into the manor through the opened door, they were all shocked by the ruins caused by the battle.

In this realm, these young cultivators had never seen such a violent scene.

Not to mention that they soon discovered that those lying on the ground were all cultivators whose strength surpassed theirs.

Some even discovered the corpses of powerful figures like scattered cultivators, feeling a chill running down their spines on a hot day.

By the time Ji Hu's men hurriedly arrived to handle the matter from beginning to end, it was already a week later.

It was also at this time that the important figures in the Golden Sword City finally understood that it was the Inspector of the Golden Sparrow City who happened to pass by and helped them eliminate a bandit group.

The important figures who had not seen Niu Wu did not take it seriously and only expressed their gratitude politely.

Of course, they didn't bother asking where the stolen goods taken by the bandits went.

No one willing to deliver the message for the sake of those goods and risk offending a cultivator from a sect.

As for those who suffered significant losses, the wealthy families... they have no means of communication and no one pays attention to them.

As for the sealing artifacts, these people don't care. If they don't have them, they will continue to find channels to apply for them.

As long as they still have a reasonable and legal control over a large population, they don't worry about not receiving offerings from the second-hand peddlers who desire merit.

As for the Little Golden Light Temple, they are more concerned about other cities with spiritual veins and abundant spiritual energy.

Recently, they have been severely understaffed and too busy to handle everything. Otherwise, they wouldn't have voluntarily given up holding the conference in the coastal area.

They provide the sealing artifacts, and as long as a certain area doesn't have a significant shortage when they are collected, they won't pay attention to it.

After returning to the Lingyue Villa, Su Ping finally began to tally the gains from this trip in the Hut Heaven.

The biggest gain was naturally the Tier 2 inferior fishing spot.

Then there was the large bird he encountered on the way, as a demonic beast of the avian kind, its feathers were quite valuable, perhaps they could be exchanged for a good amount of spirit stones!

After that, there were a few small gains from his righteous actions.

Hundreds of taels of gold, thousands of kilograms of silver, and various jewelry.

Except for the gold, which he would keep, the rest could be handed over to the steward for handling.

His body tempering medicine pouch was being consumed quite quickly, and it wouldn't be good to keep asking others for it if the treasury ran out.

Lastly, there were the sealing artifacts.

Su Ping counted all the sealing artifacts he had collected.

There were a total of 315!

Su Ping had inquired about this quantity before, and it wasn't considered too much. He could completely consume them all.

And from the current feedback from various places.

Erasing the evil spirits within the sealing artifacts, even with the help of the believers' faith, was a long-term effort.

In addition, the believers and their faith were different, and each family had different influences. Without one or two years of effort, there wouldn't be many successfully purified sealing artifacts entering the market.

In other words, even if Su Ping consumed a large number of sealing artifacts, it would still take a year for there to be a chance of attracting the attention of second-hand peddlers like the Little Golden Light Temple.

Taking out one sealing artifact, Su Ping played with it for a while.

He noticed that the Exorcising Evil and Punishing Wicked Stone Lion in the Hut Heaven turned its head and looked at the sealing artifact, then snorted disdainfully and lay back down.

From its reaction, it was obvious that this stone lion of his could restrain evil spirits.

The exorcism blessing it provided should also be effective against the evil spirits in the cultivation world.

This was good news!

At least he had another life-saving card when facing evil spirits or evil cultivators!

After that, Su Ping rested in the Lingyue Villa for two days, replenishing the medicine pouch needed for body tempering, and then went to the Jiuye Mountain Market.

With most of the Yun family moving away.

The Jiuye Mountain Market also changed hands.

The current Jiuye Mountain Market is said to be taken over by a disciple of a sect, and the person in charge has also been replaced by that disciple's confidant.

Perhaps that disciple is also a master who understands long-term stability.

There is no entrance fee for the Jiuye Mountain Market, and even the wandering cultivators have been informed. The residential area of the Yun family in the market can be rented out to wandering cultivators.

And as long as they work or set up stalls in the market, the first three months of rent are waived!

This immediately attracted many wandering cultivators who came from afar to the Jiuye Mountain Market.

After all, even if this market is not good, it is still a blessed land with a spiritual vein. In the past, many wandering cultivators begged but couldn't get a place to live.

Suddenly, all the wandering cultivators were grateful to the new owner of the Jiuye Mountain Market.

This also indirectly expanded the scope of the market, and the flow of people was at least twice as much as when Su Ping last came!
