"The Liu family! How dare they? Don't they know Iron's grandfather is me?"
Wu Quan Gui clenched his fists, his expression filled with anger.
He had finally broken through the late stage of Core Formation and advanced to his current Half-step Nascent Soul realm.
He thought he could consolidate all the cultivation forces in Beichuan and make the Blazing Fire Sect stronger.
And now, his only grandson had been killed by someone else?
"Father, the news of your breakthrough to Half-step Nascent Soul is currently only known to the five sects and four families of Beichuan."
"This Liu family from Zhe Province, people from a remote place, probably acted out of desperation and didn't know about your breakthrough, Father."
Wu Zhi Xiong frowned and voiced his guess.
If the Liu family knew that Wu Tie had a grandfather in the Half-step Nascent Soul realm, they definitely wouldn't have dared to lay a hand on him.
But unfortunately, no one else knew about it!
Currently, the major and minor forces in the southwest almost all had cultivators at the Core Formation stage. If a fight broke out, it would at most be a mutually destructive outcome.
If Wu Quan Gui had not broken through to the Half-step Nascent Soul realm, even though the Blazing Fire Sect was one of the five sects and four families, if they had to fight the Liu family, their losses would have been considerable.
But precisely because of this, the Liu family dared to attack Wu Tie!
"Well done, Liu family, well done, Liu family!"
"You go and investigate immediately the whereabouts of these Liu family members. I want to flay them one by one and make them wish they were dead!"
Wu Quan Gui clenched his fists, his expression filled with anger.
This time, he would let everyone in the southwest know the wrath of a Half-step Nascent Soul realm expert!
At the same time, Lin Chen, Long Yuling, and the others had returned to the Sun family villa and met Sun Zhi Qian, who had been waiting for them.
"Mr. Lin, how did it go?"
Seeing Lin Chen, Long Yuling, and Zhang Ying return, Sun Zhi Qian was immediately anxious and looked at Lin Chen.
"Yes, Patriarch Sun, please take a look."
Lin Chen nodded and handed the Flame Armor, which he had stripped from Wu Tie, to Sun Zhi Qian.
"Flame Armor? You really killed Wu Tie?"
Seeing the Flame Armor in front of him, Sun Zhi Qian immediately understood everything.
It seemed he had underestimated these people.
Even he, a cultivator at the peak of the late stage of Core Formation, couldn't guarantee he could kill Wu Tie, yet Lin Chen had done it in just a few hours.
"Did you leave any traces?"
Then, Sun Zhi Qian looked at Lin Chen again and asked.
Now that Wu Tie was dead, Wu Quan Gui would definitely not let it go and would surely investigate the truth of the matter everywhere.
With the Blazing Fire Sect's current influence, whether it was city surveillance or pedestrians on the street, they could all become channels for them to gather information.
"Of course not, but I have one thing I'd like to trouble you with, Patriarch Sun."
Lin Chen smiled slightly and looked at Sun Zhi Qian.
"Oh? What is it, Mr. Lin, please say."
"You eliminated Wu Tie for us. I, Sun Zhi Qian, would not hesitate to go through fire and water!"
Sun Zhi Qian said solemnly, giving Lin Chen his assurance.
But he was speaking for himself, not for the entire Sun family.
This meant that he could get into trouble with Lin Chen, but if it involved the entire Sun family, young and old, then it would definitely not be possible.
"Hahaha, Patriarch Sun, I'd like to ask you to subtly deliver this Flame Armor to the Liu family in Zhe Province."
"Whether they find it on the road, or discover it under their pillows, the more inexplicable it is, the better!"
Lin Chen smiled slightly and revealed his plan.
"Oh? Mr. Lin, why is this?"
"This Flame Armor is a genuine top-grade spiritual artifact!"
"There are many weapons of the top-grade spiritual artifact level on the market now, but there are very few pieces of armor."
"Perhaps even the Blazing Fire Sect itself can't find a second one, and you're just giving it away like this?"
Hearing Lin Chen's words, Sun Zhi Qian was momentarily stunned.
How precious was the Flame Armor? If he wore this thing, he dared to exchange a few blows with Wu Quan Gui.
Such a treasure, and he had barely had it in his hands before he was going to give it away like this. It was a bit too much, wasn't it?
"Don't worry, Patriarch Sun. Since I'm doing this, I must have my reasons. You'll understand later."
Lin Chen did not directly tell Sun Zhi Qian the reason.
"Alright, then I'll go and do it right away!"
Seeing that Lin Chen was unwilling to explain, Sun Zhi Qian didn't ask further and hurried off to prepare.
As the Patriarch of the late stage of Core Formation, it might be a bit difficult to sneak things onto someone else's bed, but it was still easy to place them at their doorstep for them to see.
A moment later, in the underground parking lot of the Minghao Hotel in Zhe Province.
Liu Huai Yu personally drove, and after parking the car with the elders of the Liu family, they were about to return to their rooms.
But as soon as he got out of the car, Liu Huai Yu felt a wave of heat assault him.
"Huh? What's going on? Why is it so hot in this underground parking lot?"
Liu Huai Yu was immediately stunned.
Having cultivated diligently and taken pills from the sect, he had just broken through to the Core Formation stage.
He didn't expect to feel a slight burning sensation in the underground parking lot, which should have been extremely cool. What was going on?
"Oh? Young Master, look, what is that?"
Third Elder Liu Hong Yi pointed to the front of the parking lot and said to Liu Huai Yu.
On the ground ahead, a piece of clothing was emitting red light, looking extremely bizarre.
"Holy crap, is this… spiritual artifact level clothing?"
Elder Liu Han, upon seeing the clothing, couldn't help but exclaim.
"What? Spiritual artifact level clothing? How is that possible?"
Hearing this news, the others were stunned.
Good heavens, how precious was spiritual artifact level armor? Even ten weapons might not be able to exchange for one piece of spiritual artifact level clothing of the same level!
And now it was just carelessly discarded on the road in the parking lot. This was unlikely, wasn't it?
"How is it impossible? This is definitely spiritual artifact level armor! I can't be wrong!"
Liu Han said with certainty, his words forceful.
"No matter what, let's pick it up first."
"In the cultivation world, treasures go to those who are fated. No matter who dropped it here, since we've found it now, it's our Liu family's fortune!"
"With this precious armor protecting us, our Liu family is sure to enter the top ten in this Southwest Grand Competition!"
Patriarch Liu Feng said excitedly to the people around him.
Now that the parking lot was empty, and they had already obtained the treasure, was there any reason to hand it over?
"Let's go, let's go back to the room first!"
The group didn't stop their footsteps and quickly, carrying the Flame Armor stealthily, returned to their room.
