Hunting Specifically for Good-Looking Cultivators
The words of the Exquisite Holy Lord made Lu Changsheng become serious in an instant.
While we may have been fooling around before, we can no longer fool around when it comes to serious matters.
"Please enlighten me Holy Lord."
Lu Changsheng was indeed curious.
Who was it that wanted to cause trouble for me that day?
What do you think?
The Exquisite Holy Lord asked calmly, while lying on the bed, like a peerless beauty, every move she made made people's hearts flutter.
Lu Changsheng, however, appeared very serious. While he could be a little silly on ordinary days, Lu Changsheng would automatically enter a sage mode when it came to serious matters.
"It shouldn't be the Demon Race or the demonic sect," Lu Changsheng stated his opinion directly.
"Oh? Why?"
Exquisite Holy Lord looked at Lu Changsheng with some curiosity.
"Given my identity and destiny, it's safe to say that neither the Demon Race nor the demonic sect would easily take action against me unless they wanted to create a truly massive upheaval. But given the current strength of the Demon Race and the demonic sect, they can't do it, nor would they dare to. So it's not either of those two races."
Lu Changsheng said this.
In fact, after that incident, Lu Changsheng himself was also thinking about this issue. He immediately ruled out the possibility that it was the work of the Demon Race and the demonic sect. Lu Changsheng even wondered if it was the Daoist sect that took action in order to eliminate the demons.
However, upon closer reflection, it seems unlikely. If they were to do that, they would definitely notify him in advance. Of course, if that were the case, Lu Changsheng wouldn't mind killing the guy who came up with the idea after he becomes stronger.
After all, this space is no joke; one wrong move and you could die without a burial place. The Daoist sect would never risk their own safety to eliminate demons, and my master would never agree to it either.
"You guessed very well, but can you guess any more?"
The Exquisite Holy Lord did not answer immediately, but instead tested Lu Changsheng's wisdom.
This annoyed Lu Changsheng. If you're going to say it, just say it! Why keep me in suspense? Just like those authors in my previous life, they could explain it clearly, but they insisted on keeping me in suspense. Is that fun? Is that interesting?
Although he was inwardly complaining, Lu Changsheng pondered for a moment before speaking.
"Is it Extraterrestrial Demons?"
Lu Changsheng said this.
However, in an instant, the Exquisite Holy Lord's expression changed, and her laziness disappeared, replaced by surprise.
Did you actually guess right?
Lu Changsheng was somewhat surprised. He had just guessed randomly, but he hadn't expected to actually guess right. It seemed that those authors were quite skilled.
"You also know about the Extraterrestrial Gods? Who told you that? Your master? That's impossible. He told you that long ago? Could it be that you've really reached the Mahayana Realm?"
The Exquisite Holy Lord was somewhat surprised.
"Is it really them?"
Lu Changsheng frowned, a cold glint appearing in his eyes.
But the next moment, the Exquisite Holy Lord shook her head and said, "It's not them."
Well???
Why are you reacting so strongly if it's not them? I had my expression all ready, and you're playing this trick on me?
Lu Changsheng was somewhat bewildered. He himself had been exuding a cold demeanor, and you're telling me it wasn't them?
Are you playing a game of reversal?
"Holy Lord, it wasn't them, why are you reacting so strongly?"
Lu Changsheng said with some resentment.
"My other reactions were much stronger, so what?" Exquisite Holy Lord said casually, suppressing her surprise, and then looked at Lu Changsheng and said, "I'm just curious that your master actually told you about the Extraterrestrial Gods in advance, but I suppose your realm has indeed reached that level."
"That's what the Exquisite Holy Lord said."
"Other reactions were more pronounced?"
Lu Changsheng's focus was a bit strange. He pondered for a while, but really didn't understand what the sentence meant.
However, I still asked the question.
"Holy Lord, if it's not Extraterrestrial Gods, then who is it?"
Lu Changsheng asked curiously.
"The Immortal Slayers".
When the Exquisite Holy Lord uttered those three words, Lu Changsheng remained remarkably calm.
You know?
Seeing that Lu Changsheng didn't react, Exquisite Holy Lord couldn't help but become curious.
"Have no idea."
Lu Changsheng shook his head; he didn't know what Immortal Slayers was.
"Then why didn't you show any emotional fluctuation?"
The Exquisite Holy Lord became curious.
"I don't even know what Immortal Slayers are, so why would I need to have emotional fluctuations? Who are they? What do they do?"
Lu Changsheng spoke the truth.
He truly didn't know what Immortal Slayers was, so how could he possibly have emotions?
It's like going out to eat and someone next to you says, "That person is Zhang Yun." You would ask, "Who is Zhang Yun?" But if they said, "His father is Zhang Erhe," you would be surprised because you don't know who Zhang Yun is, but you know who Zhang Erhe is.
Exquisite Holy Lord rubbed her temples, wanting to say something, but then felt that what Lu Changsheng said made a lot of sense, and finally sighed.
"The Immortal Slayers are a mysterious sect that claims to act on behalf of Heaven and specializes in hunting down handsome cultivators."
The Exquisite Holy Lord said this.
"Why? Is it because of Qiu Yan?"
Lu Changsheng was a little confused. Did being handsome attract their attention? Did they have nothing better to do?
"It's not that we hate appearances, it's just that generally speaking, people who are too handsome have good luck. They believe that the fortune of this world is limited, and some people have abundant fortune, monopolizing most of the fortune of the world, which causes other cultivators to have no fortuitous opportunity."
"Therefore, hunting down these people with great fortune is a way to maintain the balance of fortune. This is called acting on behalf of Heaven. They even created a Heavenly Dao Ranking, where the higher the ranking, the more dangerous it is."
The Exquisite Holy Lord said this.
"Hiss! Does that mean this junior has become number one on the list?"
Lu Changsheng was somewhat taken aback.
Are these people really that bored? They even made a ranking list?
However, the Exquisite Holy Lord shook her head and said, "You are not number one."
However, upon hearing this, Lu Changsheng felt somewhat Qi Ingestion.
If I'm not number one, then who is? Whom do I look down on?
But before Lu Changsheng could speak, the Exquisite Holy Lord said, "Your name is engraved above the Hall of Immortal Slayers. You are number one on the Kill List, without exception!"
"Moreover, the sect leader has already decreed that whoever can successfully assassinate you will inherit the position of sect leader."
"In other words, the number one on the Heavenly Dao Ranking might not necessarily be targeted for assassination. They would consider the consequences. After all, you were lucky when you were young, but your luck might have declined in middle age. But you are different. They have already determined that you are the luckiest person in the world, so..."
The words of the Exquisite Holy Lord left Lu Changsheng speechless.
That's giving them way too much face!
He immediately topped the kill list?
This is a bit tricky.
Are they strong?
Lu Changsheng asked curiously.
After pondering for a moment, the Exquisite Holy Lord spoke with a touch of playfulness.
"You guess."
Lu Changsheng: ""
I bet you're kidding me.
Holy Lord, can you be serious for once?
What kind of light novel is this? It even has this kind of setting?
Is this interesting?
Isn't that boring?
