Chapter 187 – Florida Elder Gunned Down Flash Mob Looters Attempting to Ransack His Store. "Welcome to Florida, Suckers!" Said Elder during the Interview 

BANG

BANG

Hua Jiashan and Dongfang Mei kept shooting the mutants in the sky. Unfortunately, they only had two guns. After firing the third shot, the mutants found them.

"OVER THERE!" One of the four-armed tribesmen pointed at the couple.

Hua Jiashan and Dongfang Mei kicked the ground in unison. As their cultivation base was weaker than their foes, they chose to rely on the godly weapons of Leo and kept their distance.

The elders flew backward, kiting the pursuers. While flying, they aimed and pulled the trigger.

Every bullet coming out of the muzzles claimed at least one life. The fourth shot of Dongfang Mei penetrated through the vanguard mutant and accidentally blasted another mutant's head. Only then, does the bullet lose its momentum.

Although the firepower was amazing, the couple had no time to admire their artifact. They allocated 90% of their Qi to accelerate their flight speed.

The pursuers knew they were stronger than the duo. They also accelerated to get into their attack range. Little by little, they got closer to Hua Jiashan and Dongfang Mei.

"Jiashan! To the domain! We can ask for the guardian's help!" Suggested Dongfang Mei.

Hua Jiashan nodded without looking at her. The couple changed their flight course, heading east.

"YOU'RE NOT GETTING AWAY!"

One of the mutants reacted to their movements. Although he hadn't caught up with the duo yet, he threw his axe to intercept their flight course. The axe then transformed into a burning flame wheel.

Sensing the pending crisis, Hua Jiashan reverted to his roots. While aiming his rifle at the assailant, he ejected a flying sword from his spatial ring along with his sword dao avatar.

The spirit merged with his sword, transforming it into one energy blade. It swung at the flame wheel.

Upon contact, the wheel and the energy sword exploded. However, the wheel blasted through the sword.

The mutant scoffed at the duo.

"FOOL! Do you think weaklings like you can block a strike from a soul transformation cultivator like me?! DIE!"

The mutant bellowed and controlled the flame wheel toward Hua Jiashan.

Hua Jiashan widened his eyes and raised his arms to block the attack.

BOOM

It was a direct hit. The wheel continued rotating, slashing Hua Jiashan's arms a thousand times.

"JIASHAN!"

Dongfang Mei rushed in and kicked the wheel away. She then turned to look at her husband-to-be.

"Huh?"

Hua Jiashan blankly gazed at his arms as not a scratch was left behind on his body. He looked at the black suit that he had been wearing.

Black suits, white collar shirts, long pants, leather shoes, and white socks were the new uniform of Leo's domain. The latter forced everybody to get their clothes from the clothing store, and nobody could leave the domain without wearing one.

"How am I alive?" Hua Jiashan laughed.

Seeing how Hua Jiashan survived a soul transformation cultivator's attack unharmed, she gained inspiration. Instead of continuing to run, she reloaded her rifle with Leo's essence stone. Then, she aimed at the axe-wielding mutant.

She pulled the trigger. But instead of firing a regular bullet, she unleashed a beam cannon at the crowd of mutants.

BOOM

A yellow lightning beam devoured seven mutants in its path, including the Axeman earlier, vaporizing them to smoke.

"WHAT?!"

Hua Jiashan surviving the strike already baffled the Gorr Tribesmen, but the sudden beam attack shocked them.

Seeing the result of her weapon, Dongfang Mei advised her darling.

"Jiashan, mix in essence stone bullets with the regular ones! Invest your essence stones and spirit stones!"

"But that's my cultivation resource and money!"

"What's the point of having those after you die? If you can use them to kill soul transformation cultivators, use them!"

"Dammit!"

Hua Jiashan loaded a spirit stone into his rifle. He injected his Qi into the chamber and pulled the trigger.

BOOM

The firepower was 90% weaker than the yellow lightning beam. However, it punctured through a soul transformation mutant, whose body had merged with his dao avatar. His body and soul perished together.

Moreover, Hua Jiashan received feedback from the bullet, and he could control it. As he had mastered the art of flying sword, he realized the bullet acted the same way as a flying sword.

Testing the water, Hua Jiashan waved his finger like how he controlled his dao avatar sword.

WHOOSH

The bullet moved as Hua Jiashan wished. Although it was already far away, he could still order it to turn around and fly toward another mutant. Unfortunately, the spirit stone bullet quickly lost its momentum and fell to the ground.

The experiment was enough for Hua Jiashan to come up with a new technique. He loaded another spirit stone into his rifle chamber and took aim while he flew backward.

WHOOSH-SWISH

After applying the flying sword technique to the bullet, it became a homing and penetrating round. The bullet head pierced through a mutant's heart. Then, it curved into another mutant's head. Once the skull and brain shattered, the bullet went pursued the nearest target.

Hua Jiashan burst into laughter while he loaded another spirit stone. He loved this rifle and his new skill.

"WHAT THE HELL IS THAT THING?! SCATTER!"

The mutants panicked as none of them could defend or dodge the bullet. By the time the bullet lost its momentum, another flew toward them.

BOOM

That was not all. Dongfang Mei never stopped unleashing hell upon them. While retreating, she blasted another yellow lightning beam toward the crowd.

The former Amazonian Sanctuary master was not without skills either. Seeing how Hua Jiashan used spirit stones as bullets and applied his technique to them, Dongfang Mei also applied a forbidden technique that she could never use on her tamed beasts and monsters.

Instead of shooting a beam, she fired the essence stone round as a regular bullet. However, there was a deadly effect.

"DETONATION!"

It was a suicide bomb technique. But in this case, Dongfang Mei ordered the essence stone to explode when it reached the crowded area in the sky.

A yellowish flash of explosion engulfed 30 soul transformation mutants at once. The radius of the blast covered only 200 meters, but all lifeform inside instantly turned into stones. The 30 stoned mutants fell to the ground and shattered to pieces upon impact.

"W-WHAT ARE THESE CULTIVATORS?! WHAT ARE THOSE WEAPONS?!"

Witnessing unknown weapons of destruction at work destroyed their willpower. Half of the mutants fled while the others were frozen in fear.

As they stopped pursuing Hua Jiashan and Dongfang Mei, both elders disengaged and fled to Leo's domain to call for help.

While retreating, Hua Jiashan mocked the mutants.

"WELCOME TO FLORIDA, SUCKERS! HAHAHAHA!"

BOOM

BOOM

Above Magpie City, Tang Xuan leisurely fought the invaders. After destroying Dugu Ying's spinal cord, he threw the guy to Tang Tian. Then, he crushed a purple pill, which summoned a purple mist. 

Purple mist summoning pill was Tang Xuan's signature product as his dao and combat techniques synergized with the pills. When pills manifested, his dao avatar merged with the clouds and transformed into a hundred humanoid fog spirits. The poisonous clouds rushed toward the invaders.

Four-armed mutants flung their weapons and fists against the mists, but they failed to destroy or disperse them. Instead, the mist entered their bodies and corroded them from the inside.

One after another, Gorr Tribesmen's mouths foamed, and their skins turned purple. A few seconds later, their bodies dried up. As the wind blew, their bodies dispersed into purple dust.

Unfortunately, this technique couldn't kill their souls. The tribesmen's souls ejected from their bodies and fled back to base.

Tang Xuan didn't bother pursuing the fleeing souls. He focused on killing active tribesmen before they could harm the innocent civilians in the city.

Five minutes into the chaotic fight, half of Dugu Ying's troops died. The rest realized that they weren't Tang Xuan's match, and they promptly retreated.

Tang Xuan floated alone in the sky above Magpie City. He crossed his arms and snorted.

"Damn demons. They haven't learned, have they?"

Tang Xuan was relieved that he brought his clan members and his family to Magpie City before the raid. Although it took him a while to convince everybody to join him, he managed to bring them here, hoping to surrender to Leo and establish their new headquarters in his domain. Then, his clansmen ran into the Gorr Tribesmen by chance and got entangled in this fight.

After driving the intruders away, Tang Xuan descended and removed the array barrier around the city. He came down and suppressed his aura and Qi so that the people wouldn't be too uncomfortable.

"It's done." Tang Xuan relayed news to Tang Tian and the commoners of this city.

Hearing the good news, the commoners in the city cheered and celebrated. Many old farmers and children came out from hiding and kowtowed to the Tang clan members.

"Thank you, immortals! Thank you!"

"We were worried because the Life Sword Sect migrated east. Thank you, Lord Immortals!"

Many clansmen dryly laughed as they didn't contribute anything to the fight. On the other hand, Tang Xuan refused to take the credit.

"It was nothing. As a cultivator, my job is to protect the weak from selfish cultivators… like them."

The crowd cheered louder as they loved Tang Xuan's demeanor and promise.

Tang Xuan raised his hands and gestured for the crowd to stop getting too excited.

"The situation is under control. All non-combatants should go home and reunite with their families. We'll mop up the battle and clean the bodies."

Again, the commoners never stopped cheering and praising Tang Xuan. They pestered the Tang clansmen for hours.

Meanwhile, Tang Tian and his men silently dragged the demon cultivator Dugu Ying to their courtyard. They destroyed his meridians and crippled his dantian. Then, the men started interrogating the guy.

While Tang Xuan worked as the clan's spokesman and poster boy, Tang Tian took on a dirty job. He tortured Dugu Ying for an hour and extracted some information from him.

After getting enough information, Tang Tian killed Dugu Ying and crushed his soul.

.

At night, Tang Xuan, Tang Tian, and their people finished collecting spatial rings and weapons from the dead mutants. They crushed the stone corpses until none of them resembled a human so that the townsmen wouldn't be frightened by them.

In the middle of the city, Tang Xuan and Tang Tian gathered inside a courtyard house. They put all spatial rings on the table to filter the loot.

Tang Xuan didn't say anything. He focused on eliminating the remnant Qi of the ring owners, unlocking the rings. He collected useful spirit stones and essence stones in one of his storage rings. As for clothes, weapons, food, pills, and random items, he poured them out so that Tang Tian could sort them.

Tang Tian grumbled while he sat on the floor, sorting weapons and pills from the pile of trash. He kept doing it under their room was full of spiritual weapons.

"Father, what are we gonna do with these? It's not like we can use them, right?"

Tang Xuan smirked, "Tributes."

"Tribute?"

"Yes. We're planning to migrate to Florida Man's territory, so we need to prepare the right gifts for him. To be honest with you, I had trouble finding the right tribute for Florida Man. Those people came at a good time."

"…"

Tang Tian pursed his lips. He thought of the prisoner that they had captured earlier.

"Say, father."

"Yeah?"

"About intel that we got from that prisoner, should we inform Florida Man, too?"

Tang Tian already squeezed information from Dugu Ying and learned about the Gorr Tribe's objectives. Though, they were surprised that their leader was an immortal, and many quasi-immortals were among their ranks.

Tang Xuan had already heard everything from Tang Tian. He let out a long sigh.

"This is not a battle that we can fight alone. Although it's disgraceful, we need to rely on him."

"What if he doesn't want to be involved in this mess?"

Tang Xuan snickered, "I doubt he will ignore us and the commoners of the Yan Continent."

"How so?"

Tang Xuan flickered an essence stone toward his son.

"Florida Man is a businessman. He seeks life force, not material wealth."

"Life force?"

"Yes. Life force."

"Then, why…oh."

Tang Xuan laughed. He poked Tang Tian's forehead.

"That's right, stupid Tian'er. I met him, and I learned enough about his personality. He doesn't senselessly rob people's lifespans unprovoked. He will definitely offer us some of his artifacts in exchange for our LIFE FORCE! He wants CUSTOMERS!"

"???"

Tang Tian was still confused. He tilted his head, wondering how his father was so sure about it.
