Necromancy Cultivator (1)

That day, the weather was clear and the market in Danyang Village was bustling with people coming and going. The noisy sounds of mortals and the spiritual atmosphere were intertwined, giving a feeling of being out of this world.

Li Tang walked with his hands behind his back, wearing a plain green robe, with a jade pendant made of dark green wood hanging from his waist, which swayed and vibrated slightly with each step, as if sensing the spiritual energy of the surrounding heaven and earth.

He was a disciple of Bixia Mountain, and although he was not a direct disciple of the head of the sect, he was also an extraordinary cultivator among his peers, having reached the peak of foundation building at a young age, and was often called "Bixia Swordsman" by outsiders.

That was not all. He was so good as a disciple that he was sent to Guangzhaozang Sect to become an instructor, and to teach the younger cultivators. It was surely a big deal to achieve.

Today, he was traveling with Lan Suoya. It was originally just a trivial matter in the sect. He was buying spiritual rice and dried blue fish on behalf of the master to provide for the meals for the small competition next month. Although the market was full of worldly atmosphere, it was full of hidden talents. If you are not careful, you will offend the masters of other sects. Li Tang knew his limits.

"Lan Suoya, go to the familiar stall to buy rice. Remember to tell them you came in the name of Guanzhaozong Sect and get some high-quality spiritual grains." He said lightly.

Lan Suoya smiled slightly, lifted her skirt and left. She was beautiful, with beautiful eyebrows and eyes. She was one of the famous female cultivators in Lingfeng Sect, where he had visited one day to pay respect to Master Lan, her grandfather.

Although her cultivation was slightly inferior, she was talented and intelligent, and was deeply loved by all the teachers.

Li Tang also had some feelings for her in his heart, but he never said it out loud. Instead, he gave her whatever she asked and even worked it out that she should be an instructor in Guanzhaozong Sect along with him.

Unexpectedly, when he turned around and was about to go to the fish stall, he felt something in his heart and his consciousness was slightly disturbed - he could not see Lan Suoya near the stall where she was supposed to buy the grains of rice!

He frowned slightly, turned around, and chased after her aura.

After walking through three streets, passing through the spice shop, and turning to a remote rice stall, a scene suddenly caught his eyes.

He saw…

Lan Suoya was held in the arms of a man, her clothes were disheveled, her shoulders were slightly tilted, her brows were slightly furrowed, and it seemed that her ankle was injured.

The man was the empty cultivator who had recently gained fame in the Li Clan - Pi Guang!

This Pi Guang… he had actually studied him after he bought the Soul Pill.

Pi Guang was originally from the Nanling Desert State where he was born 137 years ago. It was rumored that he had entered the three sects' assessment as a mortal and won the third place on the Dragon and Tiger Ranking at just 14 years old. He was respected as a disciple of "Red Jade True Lord".

His aura was clear, but like the deep sea, something unpredictable happened to him as he touched the forbidden heavenly essence and became an empty vessel.

But at this moment, his eyes were fixed on the jade pendant on Lan Suoya's chest.

Li Tang's heart tightened, his fists tightened quietly, and the spiritual power in his body also fluctuated slightly with his emotions. He had no expression on his face, his steps paused, and when he was about to speak…

A silver bell-like laughter came, and a familiar fragrance was wrapped in the wind.

"Brother Li Tang? You are also here?"

He looked back and saw a woman approaching gracefully, wearing a pink-patterned gauze with red lips and fair skin. It was the daughter, actual heir of the Li family - Li Wanbai.

She is Li Tang's distant cousin and also an outer disciple of Bixia Sect. However, due to her mediocre talent, she was not able to enter the inner sect to practice.

The two families have always had conflicts and fights openly and secretly over whose offspring should head the Li Clan next. By rights, she should be his enemy. She has always treated him coldly, now she was calling him so dearly?

Her appearance at this time made Li Tang feel mixed emotions for a while.

He looked at her, then at Lan Suoya, and then at Pi Guang, and it seemed as if spring thunder was moving in his heart.

——Why are the two women revolving around this person?

Pi Guang, a prominent figure who spent a lot of money to buy the treasure of the Li Clan days ago, how could he meet Lan Suoya in such a shabby place?

Although he felt mixed emotions, he knew that he was not good enough to compete with him, so he could only suppress his anger, bowed his hands, and said, "Senior Brother Pi Gu."

He was very polite, and Lan Suoya saw this, and her face was slightly flustered, and she hurriedly broke free from Pi Guang's arms.

Pi Guang also seemed to be stunned, with a strange expression.

Lan Suya whispered, "Brother Li Tang, don't be mistaken. He...he just looked at the necklace given by my grandfather. And I had almost fell just now."

Li Tang was startled, and then his eyes fell on the jade pendant on her chest - it was engraved with a blue dragon pattern and faintly had spiritual fluctuations.

Pi Guang nodded solemnly. "The pendant is extraordinary. When I helped her just now, spiritual power flowed from her chest, which made me lose my mind, thinking impossible things about a grain of rice."

Li Tang forced a smile and said, "Since Suoya said so, I will believe it." Then he turned to Pi Guang and said, "I will take my cousin Wanbai and Suoya away and let Senior Brother buy his items without distractions."

But Li Wanwan sneered, like a mockery and a smile. "Why would I go with my cousin? I came with my master." She glanced at Pi Guang, "Master, isn't it?"

The atmosphere suddenly turned strange. Master? Li Tang could only continue faking his smile and nodding, as he retreated tactfully with Lan Suoya, leaving only Li wanwan and Pi Guang.

Pi Guang looked helpless, turned his head to look at Li Wanwan, and said. "You little girl, you always cause trouble for me. Go back to the sect quickly, I will be back later."

Li Wanwan bowed her hands and stepped forward instead of retreating. "Master, I am your direct disciple. My father said that from the beginning of my practice with you to the day of your enlightenment, I will be by your side."

Pi Guang frowned slightly. Why was this girl so clingy? And she doesn't know the seriousness of her promises and words. But then he thought, maybe she is sincere in seeking the Tao, so she follows him step by step. So he said no more.

"Next, we'll find someone to send the items back to the sect," he said, "And we'll set off for Suzhou."

Li Wanwan was shocked. "Suzhou? Isn't that the ancient sect that was burned down and lost in the world in the early years?"

"Suzhou, burned but not extinguished." Pi Guang smiled softly, he was slightly surprised that she still had knowledge of Suzhou unlike most young cultivators her age.

He looked towards the east. If what the golden bell writes to him is correct, the land of the former immortal gate will be stepped on by me again today.
