Perfected Jade Pure One
" With Huntian Grand Minister of Works personally taking action, how could he possibly escape? Besides, that transcendent being is already extremely old, his vitality severely depleted."
Mo Duanfeng showed no sign of defeat; on the contrary, he was in high spirits and said, "After this assassination, our reputation will surely grow even stronger. The Taiyin Sect's rigorous selection process provides a level of treatment that no one else receives."
Li Weiyi was still extremely confused, secretly wondering how the Taiyin Sect had seen through his Disguise Art.
If he doesn't figure this out, he'll have no choice but to hide in Chang's house.
Thirty feet away, Chang Zhi appeared in the shadows of an alleyway not far from the imperial carriage and reported, "Aunt, we've found out. The Taiyin Sect can't identify Li Weiyi, who used the Disguise Art. Three other assassination attempts also occurred at the same time."
"Understood, you may leave! This boy is quite interesting; I'll have to get to know him better." Chang Yuqing's voice rang out softly inside the carriage.
Chang Zhi vanished without a trace, and no one knew he had ever been there.
Chang Yuqing stepped down from her extraordinary carriage, holding a whisk in one hand and the other behind her back. She stood gracefully, like a fairy or a saint, gazing at Li Weiyi and Mo Duanfeng in the distance, looking as if she were waiting quietly.
Mo Duanfeng's eyes lit up. Even someone as indifferent to women as him was amazed. "And who is this fairy?"
"Chang Yuqing, the Eighth Generation Longevity Person of the Chang family, is of the same generation as Chang Yujian and the others," Li Weiyi said.
Mo Duanfeng gazed at the beautiful woman from afar and said, "No wonder her cultivation is unfathomable. Even with my level of cultivation, I can't see her face clearly. Wait a minute, how come I didn't know that the Chang family had such a woman who possesses both unparalleled beauty and talent?"
"The Chang family is such a powerful family, how could they not have their own Hidden Gate? Anyway, I think this True Person Yuqing is even more skilled than Bu Lianshi. Now that my injuries have stabilized, I'm leaving!" Li Weiyi walked towards Chang Yuqing.
"Two days later, the operation proceeded as planned."
Mo Duanfeng said this.
Li Weiyi had to admire Mo Duanfeng's decisive and courageous spirit. After experiencing the trials of the Ancient Kingdom of the Years Ruin, he had lost some of his arrogance and concealed some of his sharpness, but gained five times more tenacious fighting spirit.
When Li Weiyi walked up to Chang Yuqing, the three corpses were carried over by the city guards and neatly placed on the ground.
One of them was reduced to fragments of flesh and bones.
Chang Yuqing looked at the corpses on the ground. "At the same time you were assassinated, the other three were also assassinated. Can you figure anything out?"
Hearing her question, Li Weiyi knew she must have already seen through everything, and her competitive spirit was instantly ignited. The Eighth Generation Longevity Person only lived a few decades longer than the Ninth Generation Longevity Person; how could she possibly lose to her?
Li Weiyi released Four-colored Spiritual Light threads to examine the three corpses. "Two of them are young martial artists at the level of Longevity Realm, and one is at the First Realm the Longevity Realm, over a hundred years old... This is too strange!"
"Even those two young martial artists at the level of Longevity Realm were only at the Early Third Realm. Were they worth the Taiyin Sect exposing the Great Longevity Realm to assassinate? That martial artist at the First Realm of the Longevity Realm died even more unjustifiably."
"I can't figure out the reason. Does True Person Yuqing have any brilliant insights?"
A white whisk swayed in the wind.
A strand of hair tucked behind Chang Yuqing's ear as she said, "The three of them left the East City Heavenly Pavilion within a quarter of an hour before and after Mo Duanfeng left."
Li Weiyi said solemnly, "Does the True Person mean that someone anticipated I would leave Dongcheng Heavenly Pavilion with Mo Duanfeng? We will leave at different times, but not for too long. Even if the judgment is wrong and we kill Mo Duanfeng, it will still be considered a successful elimination of the seedlings."
Chang Yuqing nodded gently. "That's the only way to deduce it."
Li Weiyi quickly discovered more clues, tearing a human skin mask off the face of one of the corpses. Then, he examined the other intact corpse.
There are also signs of disguise.
"I understand!" Li Weiyi said.
Chang Yuqing looked at him.
Li Weiyi said in a deep voice, "Last night, when Meng Quyi arrived, the news that Mo Duanfeng and I had hidden in the East City Heavenly Pavilion was leaked. The Taiyin Sect people will definitely rush over quickly, hide nearby, and observe and record everyone who comes and goes."
"Previously, within a quarter of an hour before or after Mo Duanfeng left the East City Heavenly Pavilion, anyone who didn't leave the Heavenly Pavilion and wasn't recorded by them was likely someone I Disguise Art with. Therefore, the three people on the ground and I were all assassinated."
Chang Yuqing asked, "Why did they assume that you and Mo Duanfeng would leave one after the other?"
Li Weiyi solemnly replied, "They probably can't be certain! But Mo Duanfeng is accompanied by the Sacred Dynasty's Transcendent Ones, while I am not. I cannot continue to stay in the Heavenly Pavilion, after all, the Heavenly Pavilion is a mixed bag and not absolutely safe. It's even possible that someone within the Heavenly Pavilion has leaked some information to the Taiyin Sect."
"They'd rather kill the innocent than let the guilty go free."
After saying that, Li Weiyi secretly breathed a sigh of relief, thankfully it wasn't the Disguise Art that caused the problem.
Fortunately, the Disguise Art was used to disperse the power of the Taiyin Sect.
This also demonstrates the Taiyin Sect's determination to kill him.
Li Weiyi looked at the three corpses on the ground again and sighed. Perhaps some of them had been living in the Heavenly Pavilion for several days, and though they had not been recorded by the Taiyin Sect, they had also been assassinated.
Chang Yuqing boarded the extraordinary carriage, and a clear, melodious sound, like pearls falling onto a plate, came from inside. "Where are you going next? I can give you a ride!"
Li Weiyi thought that with the Huntian Grand Minister of Works, who had fallen, even if he borrowed the immortal heart and imperial courage of the Netherworld Nether Disciple of the Taiyin Sect, he would probably have no choice but to back down for now.
So, after climbing onto the carriage, he shamelessly said, "I thank True Person Yuqing in advance. May we go to the Fate Gambling House first? Are you sure we don't need to wait for Mr. Zhi?"
The three dragon-headed fire lions could understand Li Weiyi's words and ran towards the South City.
"Even a powerful figure like Mr. Zhi wouldn't be able to detect us if he were nearby." Chang Yuqing's eyes flickered, and she suddenly asked, "Are the three of you going to Miao An Temple?"
This single sentence reveals that Li Weiyi, Mo Duanfeng, and Xue Ding's every move was being monitored by the Chang family.
It is not surprising that the Taiyin Sect is capable of making judgments.
Li Weiyi asked, "How did True Person Yuqing make that judgment?"
"Isn't this common knowledge throughout the city? You and Mo Duanfeng captured Ye Tianchen and Uncle Chu Fang. If it weren't for further actions, why are you delaying their release? What benefit do you get from that?" Chang Yuqing said calmly.
Li Weiyi said, "I originally thought that Brother Yujian was already the most outstanding young Outstanding Person of the Chang family, but True Person Yuqing's state of mind and wisdom make me feel a great pressure. True Person Yuqing, do you think we have any chance of winning this time?"
"That depends on your purpose. Victory isn't just about winning a fight," Chang Yuqing said. "If your goal is to break through to the peak of your cultivation realm, then why care about winning or losing?"
"If your purpose in going here is to seize the Blood Butcher Demonic Armor, then you have absolutely no chance of winning."
Li Weiyi smiled and said, "Because Wenren Tinghai Shan Xianzhi could guess that we would come, they would definitely make full preparations, right?"
"The Wenren and Qu Lineage are utterly loyal to the Devil Lord, and together they received eighteen sets of Blood Butcher Demonic Armor, accounting for a quarter of the total. Even if they lose three sets, they can still form a level fifteen Floating Pagoda. How do you expect to fight them? Wenren Tinghai can crush you all with just one hand."
"Even without the Blood Butcher Demonic Armor, in a one-on-one fight, which of the three of you could be a match for Shan Xianzhi?" Chang Yuqing smiled contemptuously, her eyes narrowing.
Li Weiyi did not refute it. Whether it was Shan Xianzhi or Gu Zhenxiang, he was determined to overcome them one by one.
"Not convinced? Let me remind you again, don't think that just because you've lost, they won't dare touch your cultivation or your lives. At least you, there's a possibility you'll die inside," Chang Yuqing said.
Li Weiyi was genuinely confused this time. "Do they have the guts?"
"Wenren Demon Minister is indeed loyal to the Devil Lord, but Wenren Tinghai has been working for the Crown Prince all along, and Wenren Demon Minister has neither stopped him nor punished him. Do you think Wenren Tinghai might accidentally kill you during a sparring match?" Chang Yuqing's red lips curled up slightly, and her captivating charm overshadowed her ethereal and flawless Daoist lineage aura.
From then on, Li Weiyi spent the rest of her time recovering from her injuries.
Chang Yuqing said no more and closed her eyes to sit down and talk.
Fate Gambling House.
Upon arriving at the Myriad Phenomena Red Dust Hall, Li Weiyi was filled with regret upon seeing the latest odds.
Meng Quyi's odds have increased from 8 to 1 to 7.
The reason for adjusting the odds is explained above: the appearance of "Saints' Robes" increases his chances of becoming number one on the <Longevity Earth Ranking.
Li Weiyi's odds increased to 1 to 8 because his mental power reached the peak of the Fourth Realm, and the power unleashed by the fifth level of the Six Purifying Karma exceeded expectations.
The commentary states that, relying on his Heaven and Earth Freedom Realm and his speed, Meng Quyi has a 50% chance of preventing Li Weiyi from unleashing this move, and a 90% chance of escaping Shī Yī Seal's attack range.
Mo Duanfeng's odds have been raised to 1 to 9.
Ultimately, it's because Li Weiyi and Mo Duanfeng are only at the mid-stage of the cultivation realm. If they break through to the peak, the odds will inevitably increase.
"I'm betting all five hundred Low-grade Spirit Crystal on Li Weiyi's first place on the Longevity Earth Ranking." Li Weiyi wagered almost all of the spirit crystals he had left.
Not far away, Chang Yuqing frowned, even she couldn't help but be taken aback for a moment.
"Five hundred spirit crystals. Even some Great Longevity might not accumulate this much wealth over a hundred years. Are you really that confident? You don't even consider a legendary figure like the Emperor Zhenxiang a threat?" Chang Yuqing said as she left the Fate Gambling House, gently waving her whisk.
"What's this? Your Chang family has a senior who bet dozens of times more than this on me. If I don't defeat the Shan Xianzhi and Gu Zhenxiang, how can I face him?" Li Weiyi said.
Anyway, Chang Shu didn't say that this matter was not to be mentioned to outsiders.
Besides, Chang Yuqing is just a junior, so she probably wouldn't dare to speak recklessly and knows the seriousness of the matter.
Chang Yuqing suddenly stopped and looked at him. "Mr. Shu?"
Li Weiyi smiled but remained silent.
"The Sacred Hall Life Realm is located in the South City. You can go there yourself; I won't see you off!"
Stepping out of the Heavenly Fire World, Chang Yuqing boarded her transcendent chariot and soared into the sky.
"Won't she rush back and tell on us?"
After careful consideration, Li Weiyi shook his head, disbelieving that a Longevity Realm Martial Cultivator would dare to offend a powerful figure within Lineage, especially one who was practically the head of the family.
The Sacred Hall Life Realm is a large estate located in the South City, and is a property of the Rainforest Realm Liu Tribe.
Young Longevity Realm Martial Cultivator in the Rainforest Realm also reside here. Currently, the Lingxiao Palace, the Sacred Hall Life Realm, and the Rainforest Realm are allied, advancing and retreating together.
"Yuliu Mountain Villa".
Li Weiyi dispelled his Disguise Art, stood in front of the manor gate, looked at the four large characters on the plaque, and then stepped forward to state his name.
"Southern Dragon... the successor of the Great Palace Master 'Dao Law Successor..."
The four guards watching over the manor were extremely excited. One of them ran towards the courtyard behind the gate, shouting, "The strongest one has arrived! Our strongest one has arrived!"
