C3989 Insatiable Greed

Liu Yuanchang waved his hand and said, "Take him away. Also, capture all the people who are involved in this matter."

"Yes!"

A few black-armored soldiers immediately rushed up and grabbed Zhang Xunhuan's arm, dragging him out.

This time, Zhang Xunhuan really panicked.

"Uncle-in-law, I was wrong! Please spare me this time. I really didn't know he was the governor." Zhang Xunhuan begged loudly.

His heart was already green with regret.

If he had known earlier, he wouldn't have provoked Lu Yu.

Now, not only did he not obtain the Profound Life Dao Scripture, he'd even committed a heinous crime instead.

But Liu Yuanchang still had a heart of steel, as if he didn't hear Zhang Xunhuan begging for mercy at all.

"Wait a moment." Lu Yu suddenly said in a deep voice.

Hearing Lu Yu's words, the soldiers immediately stopped walking.

Zhang Xunhuan was being dragged, and his entire person was already panicking to the extreme. Now, he collapsed onto the ground all of a sudden, and no longer had any strength to stand up.

"Lord Governor, I was wrong. I was really wrong." Zhang Xun Huan begged bitterly.

Lu Yu did not argue with him.

He raised his hand and pressed it on Zhang Xun Huan's forehead.

At this moment, Zhang Xunhuan instantly let out a heart-wrenching cry.

This was related to the ancient demon, and Zhang Xunhuan's life was no longer important.

At this moment, countless memories flooded into Lu Yu's mind like a tide.

It turned out that Zhang Xunhuan had only found out by chance that the Book of Destiny was hidden in the Heaven Peak Daoist Temple.

Although Zhang Xunhuan was a young master from a wealthy family, his natural talent wasn't high. The reason why he was able to reach the cultivation level today was because of the accumulation of resources in his family.

However, the usefulness of the resources was extremely limited.

Without sufficient natural endowments, no matter how many resources there were, it would be useless.

Zhang Xunhuan wanted to alter his destiny.

At this moment, a mysterious expert called "Mr. Nine" came to him.

First, he bestowed Zhang Xunhuan with a supreme Cultivation Methods, and forcefully used the medicine to raise Zhang Xunhuan's talent. Then, intentionally or unintentionally, he revealed the news of the 'Profound Life Dao Scripture' in the Celestial Peak Daoist Temple.

Zhang Xunhuan, who had changed his talent, had already tasted the sweetness, so naturally, he wouldn't stop. Therefore, he immediately went to investigate personally.

After that, there was something that happened next.

"This person was used by the ancient demon. A person's greed is indeed limitless." Lu Yu used the Spiritual Sense to glance at Zhang Xunhuan, and he couldn't help but shake his head.

That ancient demon did not change Zhang Xun Huan's talent at all.

The so-called increase in talent was merely squeezing out one's lifespan in exchange for a temporary cultivation level.

This sort of act of fishing with all his might was often not worth it. This Zhang Xunhuan was obviously scammed by the ancient demon.1

"Take him away." Lu Yu waved his hand.

This Zhang Xunhuan wanted to kill him, how could Lu Yu let him go?

The soldiers ignored Zhang Xunhuan's pleas for mercy and forcefully took him away.

Those who were taken away along with Zhang Xunhuan were also the rogue cultivators who participated in the attack on Lu Yu.

It was imaginable that these rogue cultivators wouldn't have a good ending.

"Lord Governor, do you have any other instructions?" Liu Yuanchang was extremely respectful.

He was already an old official, so he naturally understood many rules.

This time, Zhang Xunhuan touched someone he shouldn't have provoked. Not to mention Liu Yuanchang's nephew, even if it was his son, Liu Yuanchang wouldn't forgive him either.

"Come in and talk."

Lu Yu raised his hand and a mysterious force burst out from his palm, trapping the few of them in a spatial zone.
