"Zizi," the two male disciples fell to the ground.
They didn't have as good a father as Yao Yunxuan, their treasure armor's grade was too low.
Under the enormous cultivation gap, they couldn't hold on for even a moment.
Jiang Cheng controlled the four sword shadows, flying them towards the already tottering Yao Yunxuan.
This time, no matter how strong Yao Yunxuan was, she couldn't block it.
She didn't want to die.
"You can't kill me, my father set a spirit talisman on me..."
Bang!
A green light ahead exploded, and a transparent human figure appeared before Jiang Cheng, blocking the fatal blow.
"How dare you, wretch!"
The illusion was a middle-aged man in a Daoist robe, with brows furrowed, exuding an intimidating authority.
This was a fragment of Yao Qiulin's soul, sealed within the spirit talisman to protect his precious daughter.
"Stand down!"
The split soul shone brightly, exuding an aura of life and death authority!
The air in the cave became stagnant, making Ji Linghan's face pale and even standing became unsteady.
And Yao Yunxuan suddenly gained confidence.
A strand of a Soul Splitting Realm expert's soul was formidable, though it lacked a physical body, it could perform many secret techniques the Gathering Yuan Realm couldn't reach.
"Kill him!"
"Dad, hurry, kill him!"
Her scream echoed in the cave, like a madwoman.
"Aren't you taking it a bit lightly?"
Jiang Cheng gazed at her like she was an idiot.
He had replicated Yao Qiulin's entire combat power, not to mention a strand of soul, even if the real body appeared, it couldn't do anything to him.
"Hmph!"
Activation of the second layer of Soul Capturing Technique!
His eyes shone with divine light, and the split soul was hit by two dark red rays, exploding instantly!
"No!"
Yao Yunxuan couldn't believe her eyes.
Her ultimate trump card was destroyed just like that?
Swoosh!
Six curved moon sword shadows merged, piercing her straight through.
What needs to be killed should be killed thoroughly; Jiang Cheng wouldn't play any sentimental games at this point.
After the battle ended, he immediately began scavenging the spoils.
Although he had copied all the combat power, he had no pills, spiritual artifacts, spirit talismans, or array discs.
How could that match Brother Cheng's current level?
From the three male disciples, he found over a hundred middle-grade spirit stones, along with a few bottles of Qi Gathering Pills.
Truly poor!
Shaking his head, he then targeted Yao Yunxuan.
Ignoring the fact that there was another girl in the cave watching, he searched her top to bottom.
The gains in hand were real, why pretend?
Yao Yunxuan's Tier Three Spirit Armor was quickly worn by him, immediately increasing his sense of security.
The Tier Two Spiritual Sword in his hand was replaced with a Tier Three Flying Sword.
Finally, he discovered a storage ring on Yao Yunxuan's finger.
With a surge of his Soul Splitting Realm divine sense, the original restriction on the ring was destroyed.
"Wow!"
Looking at the dazzling array of materials in the ring, Jiang Cheng laughed out loud.
Yao Yunxuan was indeed a 'rich second generation'; the ring contained as many as three thousand middle-grade spirit stones and over two hundred top-grade spirit stones.
Besides over a hundred bottles of Qi Gathering Pills, there were also three Soul Refining Pills for impacting the Soul Splitting Realm.
Additionally, there were more than a dozen talismans of various kinds.
During the combat, the strength gap was too large, so she didn't have time to use them, but now Jiang Cheng benefitted from it.
It wasn't until he finished his task that Ji Linghan cautiously spoke.
"Senior..."
She was planning to help earlier, who knew it wasn't needed at all.
With Yao Yunxuan, the enemy, dead, she was naturally happy.
The originally certain-death situation being resolved made her very grateful, too.
But now she was mostly bewildered.
Wasn't it said he had no cultivation?
How did he suddenly acquire the ability to instantly kill those four?
Moreover, using her divine sense to probe Jiang Cheng's strength now revealed nothing.
To her, he felt just like one of the sect's elders, unfathomable.
What crumbled her perception was this senior's manner of conducting himself.
Wasn't the way he scavenged for loot just now too indiscriminate?
Other experts, even if they wanted to take spoils, would consider their image, perhaps letting juniors fetch them, or dismissing them for being too low-grade.
Is this really a senior expert? Not a bit of the expected style!
She had a question mark in her heart.
"Cough!"
Jiang Cheng cleared his throat, not about to reveal the system's secret.
He had to make something up on the fly.
"I was just disguising myself as an ordinary person to see if the girl had a kind heart."
"You've done well, passed the test!"
He suddenly took on a mysterious demeanor, and Ji Linghan believed him.
"I saw earlier that you used Extreme Moon Sect's swordsmanship, are you one of them..."
Although he had gained Yao Qiulin's entire power, he hadn't obtained his memories, so Jiang Cheng wasn't clear on sect vendettas.
He didn't even know how to find the front gate of Extreme Moon Sect.
However, he could roughly guess from the earlier conversation.
"Are you stupid? If I were one of them, would I kill them?"
"Alright, alright, we're leaving now!"
Yao Qiulin was a third-layer Soul Splitting Realm expert, sufficiently powerful to fly out of this cave.
Before Ji Linghan could speak, he grabbed her delicate hand.
With spiritual qi channeling, the two floated upwards.
Soon, they arrived outside the cave.
Gazing at the sprawling barren mountains and wilderness, Jiang Cheng laughed madly.
"Hahaha, I'm finally free!"
"World, here I come!"
He spread his arms wide as if the scene before him was incredibly beautiful.
Ji Linghan's lips twitched, wondering if he had a screw loose.
"Senior, um..."
"Are you really a Celestial Fate Realm expert?"
Watching her twisting her fingers, with a look of both anticipation and shyness, Jiang Cheng understood what she wanted.
She wanted to ask him for help in seeking revenge.
Though her beautiful face matched with that shy expression had a unique charm, Jiang Cheng disliked trouble.
He had heard that Ji Linghan's sect had been wiped out.
The enemy must be immensely powerful to obliterate an entire sect.
Even with the system's resurrection feature, Brother Cheng didn't want to wade into this muddy water.
Having only one chance a day, he understood the reckless appeal of fate.
So, he decisively clasped his fists.
"Until we meet again!"
Just as he turned around, a system prompt echoed in his head.
