Legend of the Great Sage (Chapter 401-Chapter 500)

A while later, Ye Liubo woke up slowly. She saw Li Qingshan and said feebly, “Master, are you fine?”


“I’m obviously fine.” Li Qingshan’s heart softened, and he withdrew the Spirit Turtle’s Profound Shell with a smile. He placed a healing pill into her mouth and picked her up. “Let’s go!”



Ye Liubo felt rather flattered before becoming filled with delight. She wrapped her arms around Li Qingshan’s neck and pressed her head against his chest. She seemed to be living in happiness.

The group returned to the underground dwelling, and Li Qingshan placed Ye Liubo on the stone bed. “Rest up!”

Afterwards, he took out all the hundred treasures pouches he had obtained through the battles and began to allocate everyone’s rewards.

“Liusu, count through them.”

Ye Liusu stepped up under his orders and opened the hundred treasures pouches one by one, tallying up everything that they contained.

They had killed a total of nine Foundation Establishment cultivators and countless Qi Practitioners. The spoils they had received were extremely abundant. Just the supreme grade spiritual artifacts amounted to seventeen, with over a hundred high grade spiritual artifacts and almost a thousand other spiritual artifacts.

Any single one of them was enough to light up any night roamer’s eyes. The various pills formed a dazzling array as well, almost too many to count. By the time Ye Liusu took out the talismans, formations and various puppets, she had almost filled the entire cave, turning it into a huge treasure trove.

“My share first.”

Li Qingshan picked out the pills that were beneficial to him first. Just the Virtue Accumulation pills amounted to four. Coupled with the other high level pills, they were enough for him to cultivate the ox demon to the fourth layer.

Afterwards, he took the few scarlet talismans. Although all of them were either inferior or low grade, they were still quite powerful. Most importantly, they did not possess any prominent special characteristics. Even if he used them as a human, people would not wonder about their origins.

As for the spiritual artifacts, all he chose was the military tablet for controlling Corpse Soldiers. He was prepared to give it to Xiao An as a gift along with all the other corpses. As for the other spiritual artifacts, he had no use for them, and they were difficult to sell, so he did not take a single one.

But most importantly, the blood-red blade and the bronze cauldron were already in his possession.

The blood-red blade would be for his identity as a daemon. The primary reason why he had crushed Fu Qingjin in battle this time was because Fu Qingjin did not understand what his innate abilities were capable of, so it was no wonder that Fu Qingjin would be reluctant to accept his defeat, issuing a vow like that. If Li Qingshan wanted to defeat him again in the future, these tricks would not work anymore. It would be the real thing. With this blood-red blade in hand, at least he would not suffer too much.

As for the bronze cauldron, he could leave it in his dwelling for forging artifacts. With his cultivation at Foundation Establishment, he should be able to use it. He had not even mastered the basics for artifact forging, but with this powerful artifact in his possession, he would probably be able to create some spiritual artifacts if he spent some time learning, right?

After choosing, Li Qingshan looked back and said, “Liubo, choose three supreme grade spiritual artifacts!”

Ye Liubo stared at Li Qingshan eagerly and bit her lip. “Master, can I have a different reward?”

“Stop messing around. Go.” Li Qingshan’s gaze softened. After all, this was the first time someone had shown him such loyalty in his entire life.

Ye Liubo was rather reluctant to oblige, but under his gaze, she was unable to turn him down. She had not thrown herself into life-threatening danger in vain.

Under everyone’s envious and jealous gazes, Ye Liubo picked and choosed before deciding on three spiritual artifacts, which were a protective shield, a small bow glistening with silver light, and a golden bracelet that she wore on her wrist.

This girl has really earned his favour. I would’ve treated her better if I had known before, Ye Mingzhu thought. Not only had Ye Liubo taken away three supreme grade spiritual artifacts, but she also had the priority in choosing, so she obtained the best supreme grade spiritual artifacts out of all of them.

“Liusu, you take two as well. It’s all thanks to your strategy that we could win the battles so easily.”

“Thank you, master.” Ye Liusu bowed and went up to take two spiritual artifacts. She knew this probably had something to do with the fact that she had not fled when it mattered. However, she wondered inside whether she would be able to be like Ye Liubo if she did not carry the mission of revitalising the night roamers on her shoulders.

Li Qingshan turned around and said with hostility, “Now for you lot.” His hand slid down the shiny supreme grade spiritual artifacts. “There’s twelve remaining. The six clans should have received two each, but those who fled will lose half of their spoils. Do you have any objections?”

Under Li Qingshan’s gaze, the matriarchs all lowered their heads. None of them dared to object. Although it pained them, they instead let out a sigh of relief when they considered how Li Qingshan could have lost his temper instead. They went up to pick one each.

Li Qingshan waved his hand. “Liusu, you can allocate the rest!”



Ye Liusu accepted his orders and split up half of it first. She split it into seven portions, with the additional portion going to the personal guards. That was equivalent to declaring the establishment of a new clan. Only with authority could she implement her beliefs.

The matriarchs looked at one another and exchanged glances. They were filled with doubt. The personal guards were all overjoyed, being able to obtain a share for themselves was obviously good news. Who cared about who was in charge? All that mattered was they would be obtaining benefits.

Li Qingshan nodded. After the allocation of rewards, he stowed the tremendous amount of remaining resources away and began to think over the battle earlier. He left his mirror clone here to deal with any possible issues, while his main body returned to the dwelling in the Chain mountains.

The sky had lit up completely now. In the Chain mountains, the Qing Xiao dwelling.

Xiao An seemed to sense something. She emerged from the dwelling and gazed into the distance. A white cloud shot through the sky with a long tail. She smiled in relief.

“I’m back!” Li Qingshan picked up Xiao An and said in her ear, “The battle was very satisfying. I taught that bastard Fu Qingjin a proper lesson. Here’s a gift.”

As he said that, he shoved a hundred treasures pouch into Xiao An’s hands. Before Li Qingshan had begun fighting, he had told the night roamers to collect the corpses. The hundred treasures pouch contained all the corpses from the battle, including the corpses of the nine Foundation Establishment cultivators.

With that, she would be able to strengthen the Skull Prayer Beads even further. She would be able to begin the next step in the plan.

Suddenly, Li Qingshan raised his head, and his eyes narrowed. He saw Qian Rongzhi flying over.

Qian Rongzhi landed on the flat platform gracefully. She bent over and placed a hundred treasures pouch into Li Qingshan’s hand. She smiled. “This is what you wanted.” She straightened herself out and stuck her hand out. “It’s time for you to settle your debt.”

Li Qingshan accepted the hundred treasures pouch and ran some numbers. He took out two True Spirit pills. “Is this enough?”

Qian Rongzhi’s eyes lit up as she smiled happily. “It’s enough. You’re just as considerate as before.” Suddenly, she grew serious. “Let’s get serious now. The academy has called an emergency meeting. All Foundation Establishment cultivators have to return for discussions.”
