Chapter 75: Chapter 70: They are Plotting a Big Conspiracy!_1
"Tearing up my visiting card and selling it in the marketplace? How dare they disrespect me and the Palace of Light!"
Zhu Lianhua was angered, never before had he been so humiliated.
Wang Shuang, standing beside him, also felt somewhat embarrassed.
This Divine Light Sect, they really know not how to behave.
He knew Zhu Lianhua had sent a visiting card to the Seven-Colored Peak. He had not expected the card to end up torn and sold in the marketplace.
He composed himself and said, "It’s said that the chief disciple of Seven-Colored Peak is insane and unconventional. Perhaps he is the one who sold this!"
Wang Shuang didn’t mention the Peak Master of Seven-Colored Peak, intending to shift the conflict onto Qi Yuan.
After all, he was afraid that Zhu Lianhua might rashly create a conflict with the Peak Master, seemingly close to god-infant late-stage level.
But causing a commotion with a Qi Refinement disciple wouldn’t matter much.
"Humph, without that bitch Ruan Yixi’s permission, would her disciple dare to sell my visiting card?" Zhu Lianhua sent a message, his face had calmed down.
If Jiang Lingsu were present, she’d say, the senior brother dared.
"Brother Zhu, watch your words, this is the market of the Divine Light Sect!"
"Humph, we are just channeled messages, why should we fear anything!" Zhu Lianhua continued his message.
Hearing this, Wang Shuang thought even more poorly of him.
If he is afraid to confront publicly, then why such arrogance?
"Shall we go to Divine Light Sect, my friend?" Wang Shuang asked tentatively, "Should we confront them about this?"
He gazed at Zhu Lianhua, fearful that Zhu Lianhua might recklessly cause a scene at the Divine Light Sect.
If it happened, he would absolutely claim that his mistress’s birth was about to happen and hurry back home to avoid getting involved.
Zhu Lianhua’s face changed rapidly, finally stating, "It is nothing but a humiliation to take action now! But the insult today, I have taken note. Divine Light Sect... today you’ve insulted me like this, the day I reach the god-infant stage, I swear that there will be no peace for this sect! Let’s go!"
Zhu Lianhua chose to lay low for now.
Completing the task assigned by his master is of paramount importance.
About the Divine Light Sect, Ruan Yixi, and that Qi Yuan, he made a mental note!
Upon hearing this, Wang Shuang rejoiced inwardly: "Good choice, my friend. Ruan Yixi is too powerful to provoke. However, her disciple is only at the Qi Refinement stage, once he leaves the sect, I’ll find an excuse to capture him and vent your anger!"
Not far away, Qi Yuan, wearing a cloak, was scratching his face non-stop, he was anxious.
Just now, he secretly came down the mountain to sell that invitation.
To his luck, he came across the people from the Palace of Light.
What an unlucky meeting.
He quietly obtained some information that angered him.
That Zhu Lianhua wanted to steal an ultimate treasure!
Who was the ultimate treasure of the Divine Light Sect if not Qi Yuan himself?
How could Qi Yuan tolerate someone trying to take him away?
Zhu Lianhua’s gnashing hatred, along with his frenzied channeling, made Qi Yuan feel that they were hatching some conspiracy.
"If only I could read people’s minds, then their conspiracy would be revealed!"
"They are definitely plotting to overthrow our Divine Light Sect!"
"Their ambition is unforgivable!"
"Unfortunately, I don’t have any evidence to report this to the sect. Maybe just like the last time I exposed the Sect Master as a spy, I would end up in solitary confinement!"
"I cannot stand idle. I must take actions for our sect!"
"If I don’t fight against the sect’s problem today, who will save me if I face trouble tomorrow?"
"Besides, he must also have ill intentions towards my Sect Master. Such people should not live in this world!"
Qi Yuan also gnashed his teeth, just like Zhu Lianhua.
He believed Zhu Lianhua was too mean.
Did he have to exterminate everyone at every turn?
Can’t people have more trust in each other?
Maybe that visiting card was accidentally stolen by a thief and sold?
Worst yet, maybe Qi Yuan was just too poor and couldn’t afford meals so he had to take risks and sell the visiting card?
Couldn’t Zhu Lianhua understand his situation a little bit?
At this point, a tender white hand patted his shoulder.
"Senior brother." A female in a black cloak sat down opposite Qi Yuan.
This woman was Jiang Lingsu.
Qi Yuan startled, "I am not your senior brother, I don’t know Qi Yuan."
"Senior brother, stop pretending!" Jiang Lingsu leaned closer to Qi Yuan’s ear and said in a low voice, "Do you have a grudge against the people from the Palace of Light?"
"I was just out gathering materials and heard their evil plots. They have the audacity to overthrow Divine Light Sect, and want to overthrow the Great Merchant Nation too," Qi Yuan spoke passionately.
Jiang Lingsu was taken aback, she then studied Zhu Lianhua and Wang Shuang about twenty meters away somewhat speechless.
You heard their conspiracy from that far away and it was through a channeled message?
Jiang Lingsu said, "Senior brother, you have plans for those two?"
"Yes!" Qi Yuan declared righteously, "I will fight for the sect and slay this menace!"
Hearing this, Jiang Lingsu felt immediately relieved. She was truly lucky to have consulted with senior brother first.
Otherwise, if senior brother recklessly rushed in, not only would he be throwing his life away, he would ruin their plan.
"Senior brother, those two are indeed detestable, I also want to slay them. However, their strength is formidable, and we are likely not their match," Jiang Lingsu organized her thoughts.
She wanted to kill Zhu Lianhua and naturally had her cunning plan.
That cunning plan, she could not tell senior brother yet.
"Senior brother, follow me later. Listen to my arrangements and let’s kill them together," Jiang Lingsu said.
Qi Yuan looked hesitant, "Our strength is too weak, what if we can’t defeat them?"
Jiang Lingsu forced a bitter smile when she heard this.
Senior Brother, you’re well aware of your own lack of strength.
She just had this feeling, if she wasn’t here, Senior Brother would undoubtedly go after those two and cause trouble.
Senior Brother is unusual, with his quirky thought patterns, and anything can happen.
"Rest assured, I have a precious artifact that can kill both of them.
Senior Brother, when we follow them, you must listen to my arrangements, or else unforeseen circumstances may arise." Jiang Lingsu spoke, handing three amulets to Qi Yuan.
"These three amulets are the Invisibility Amulet, the Copper Armor Amulet, and the Aquatic Evasion Amulet.
They each serve the functions of concealing presence, providing protection, and facilitating evasion." Jiang Lingsu handed the three amulets to Qi Yuan.
Qi Yuan’s eyes lit up: "Thank you, Junior Sister!"
"Senior Brother, use the Invisibility Amulet and Copper Armor Amulet, and we will go after them."
"Okay." Although somewhat reluctant, Qi Yuan used the amulets.
After using the amulets, the two of them moved around the market.
The people in the market seemed not to notice their presence at all.
The two of them followed Zhu Lianhua and Wang Shuang out of the market.
Qi Yuan and Jiang Lingsu trailed behind them.
"Senior Brother, stay closer to me." Jiang Lingsu quietly advised Qi Yuan.
She feared Senior Brother straying too far from her. If a fight broke out, it wouldn’t be good if she couldn’t protect Senior Brother.
"Okay." Qi Yuan moved closer to Jiang Lingsu in response.
The distance between them was very close. Jiang Lingsu could feel Qi Yuan’s somewhat nervous breathing, her face turning slightly red.
It was her first time being this close to a man.
However, thinking of Senior Brother’s safety, she stopped acting coy and took Senior Brother’s hand: "Senior Brother, if there is any danger later, you stand behind me."
"Okay, I’ll protect you from behind!" Qi Yuan agreed, also holding Jiang Lingsu’s hand.
The two of them stealthily followed Zhu Lianhua and Wang Shuang. After approximately the time it takes an incense stick to burn, they entered a dense forest.
The isolated area saw few visitors.
Jiang Lingsu was quite calm, but Qi Yuan, standing next to her, seemed quite nervous. His breathing was noticeably fast, causing ripples of uncertainty in Jiang Lingsu’s heart.
"Senior Brother, when the time is right, we will strike suddenly, assassinating them."
"Take them by surprise, I understand!"
"Yes, follow my lead." Jiang Lingsu emphasized.
One of them in the late stage of Foundation Establishment, the other in the middle stage.
With Jiang Lingsu’s own power, of course she was no match for the two of them.
However, she had a plethora of artifacts capable of overwhelming the two Foundation Establishers.
The two of them moved silently, arriving deep into the forest very quickly.
At that moment, Wang Shuang and Zhu Lianhua both stopped, seemingly discussing something.
Seeing this, Qi Yuan suddenly yelled, "Junior Sister, now is the best opportunity. Watch me sneak attack!"
With that, Qi Yuan wielding a kitchen knife charged straight in.
Jiang Lingsu was stunned.
She knew it was the perfect time for a sneak attack, but she needed time to use her artifacts.
Who knew that Senior Brother would be so reckless!
Those were cultivators in the late and middle stages of Foundation Establishment!
And you, a Qi Refiner, just charged in like that?
And this, a sneak attack?
Waving a kitchen knife to slash at them!
But at this moment, Jiang Lingsu didn’t have time to think any further. Since Senior Brother had started, she couldn’t delay anymore. Or else, if Senior Brother died here, she would regret it for a lifetime.
She also quickened her artifact deployment.
On the other side, Zhu Lianhua was stunned, and Wang Shuang was utterly astonished: "He’s Qi Yuan, the head disciple of the Seven-Colored Peak."
"What?" Zhu Lianhua felt a sense of foreboding.
A Qi Refiner, with a kitchen knife, daring to ambush two Foundation Establishment cultivators – something must be going on behind the scenes.
"Get out quickly." Without a second thought, they both quickly fled.
Jiang Lingsu, seeing this from afar, also understood the thoughts of the two men and breathed a sigh of relief.
She decided not to take any action, lest Senior Brother get hurt if she ended up catching those two.
Let them escape this disaster!
Jiang Lingsu looked at Senior Brother, sighed inwardly, and felt a faint sense of dissatisfaction.
At that moment, Qi Yuan saw those two trying to run away, and bellowed mightily, "Where do you think you’re going!"
His speed soared astonishingly at that moment.
Even surpassing the two fleeing Foundation Establishment cultivators.
"You want to annihilate my Palace of Light, prepare to die!"
With a slash, Zhu Lianhua’s head fell to the ground, his eyes wide with surprise.
"Assisting the tyrant, deserving of death!"
Without losing momentum, Qi Yuan bisected Wang Shuang.
In the blink of an eye, Qi Yuan’s slash resulted in the instant death of two Foundation Establishment cultivators.
Even until their death, they thought they had been caught up in some big plot.
Qi Yuan dusted off his hands, looking at the corpses on the ground. He shouted loudly, "Junior Sister, come quickly! These two old ones were useless. They were killed by my dishonorable sneak attack."
From afar, Jiang Lingsu, who had just watched this scene, blinked her eyes.
The development of the situation seemed quite strange.
