Li Yunjing would never go to beg the young miss, no matter what. How much did he already owe her?

A life-saving grace, gifts of contribution points, time and time again—if Li Yunjing went to beg her again, would he have any face left?

He definitely could not go looking for help!

As for the next mission, he would just let nature take its course.

In short, he would not beg anyone for help.

However, what Li Yunjing did not know was that at this very moment, in the eastern region of the Divine Firmament Dao Sect, atop a majestic mountain peak, someone was already thinking of him.

Inside the Ten Thousand Laws Palace.

Wei Henian sat at the head of the hall, while sixteen inner sect disciples dressed in green robes sat in the rows below.

Facing the suppression from the Law Enforcement Hall and the Fu Family, Wei Henian had paid a heavy price over the last half-month to finally suppress the matter for the time being.

At this moment, he had gathered the core members of the Ten Thousand Laws Society to discuss a strategy for keeping a low profile.

The Law Enforcement Hall and the Fu Family had caused him heavy losses, forcing him to lie low and wait for a new opportunity.

As the meeting concluded, Wei Henian looked at a middle-aged man in green robes sitting below and said coldly, "Right, that friend of Fu Chao's? What was his name again? A chore disciple! Junior Brother Ye, arrange some men and get rid of him."

"Senior Brother Wei, is it that person named Li Yunjing?"

This Junior Brother Ye frowned and asked tentatively.

"That's right! It's that little beast! I cannot clash with the Fu Family for now, so I will kill Fu Chao's friend first. I want to see what kind of expression Fu Chao will have then!"

Wei Henian's face was twisted, and he spoke with vicious intent.

"Senior Brother Wei, but killing within the sect is a grave crime. If Li Yunjing dies, the Law Enforcement Hall will definitely investigate with everything they have!"

Junior Brother Ye said, trembling with fear.

Such a task was truly a death sentence!

How could he dare to do it?

Right now, he should think of a way to decline this task and make Senior Brother Wei abandon this dangerous idea.

"Hmph! Can't you transfer Li Yunjing out of the sect? Let him die outside?"

Wei Henian's expression grew even uglier. He stood up, walked down from the dais, and stood before Junior Brother Ye, looking down at him with an overwhelming sense of pressure.

"But... but..."

Junior Brother Ye shuddered in fear. Was this something he could actually pull off?

The sect generally forbade chore disciples from leaving to handle tasks. As an inner sect disciple, he had no authority to order a chore disciple to leave the sect!

This plan was completely unfeasible from his end.

It was absolutely beyond his capabilities!

"Hmph! Take my note and personally conscript this person to transport spirit rice to the Red Sun Mining Area a thousand miles away!"

Wei Henian said sinisterly, "Arrange some men to go with him on the road, and have them finish him off halfway. When the time comes, just say you encountered bandits. You know how to handle the rest, right?"

Wei Henian had already thought of the method for him. Without a moment's hesitation, he laid out his malicious plan.

"I will! I will! This junior understands!"

Junior Brother Ye hurriedly nodded, agreeing to Wei Henian's plan.

If he didn't agree, Senior Brother Wei might just eat him alive!

Recently, Senior Brother Wei's mood had been extremely unstable; it was better to just go along with his wishes.

Otherwise, he might be the one to suffer a terrible fate!

Another inner sect disciple to the side said hesitantly, "Senior Brother Wei, why not use a different method to lure him out? If you personally sign the note, others might grow suspicious."

As for whether Li Yunjing would die, that was not even in their consideration.

A mere chore disciple, a piece of trash—crushing him would be no harder than crushing an ant!

"Heh heh! I want the Fu Family and the Law Enforcement Hall to know!"

Wei Henian sneered repeatedly, "This is aimed directly at them! I want everyone to know that there is absolutely no good end for those who cross me!"

"Hiss..."

The others felt a chill in their hearts and could not help but gasp.

It seemed Senior Brother Wei was truly enraged. He actually wanted to kill Li Yunjing openly to let Fu Chao and the Law Enforcement Hall see the consequences of provoking him!

Killing the chicken to warn the monkey!

No one dared to dissuade him anymore. At this moment, Senior Brother Wei was like a lit firecracker; he would blow up anyone who approached him.

It seemed that poor chore disciple Li Yunjing was doomed this time.

Seeing that no one dared to dissuade him, Wei Henian nodded in satisfaction. He turned around, walked to a desk at the side, picked up a brush, and wrote out his note with a flurry of strokes.

Finally, he picked up his golden waist token and stamped his unique mark onto the note.

"Ye Long! Take my note and get this done for me!"

Wei Henian flicked the invitation in his hand, and it floated lightly into Ye Long's grasp.

"Yes! Senior Brother! I will handle this matter perfectly!"

Ye Long stood up and guaranteed loudly.

The next day, on "Qiongze Peak."

Li Yunjing, as usual, practiced his qi and punched on the mountain.

"Brother Li! Brother Li!"

Suddenly, Hou Boyan's voice came from afar.

Li Yunjing turned his head and saw Hou Boyan rushing towards him rapidly from a distance, his expression seemingly anxious.

What's wrong?

Did something happen?

Li Yunjing's heart tightened, but his expression remained calm as he slowly walked to meet Hou Boyan.

"Senior Brother Hou, what happened? Why the hurry?"

Li Yunjing asked casually, a gentle smile on his face.

"Brother Li, you're still in the mood for jokes!"

Hou Boyan arrived beside Li Yunjing and said urgently, "Inner disciple Ye Long is here!"

"Oh? Who is Ye Long?"

Li Yunjing was a bit confused. He didn't know this person, so what did his arrival have to do with him?

Could this person be coming for me?

"He's Senior Brother Wei Henian's top lackey!"

Speaking of this, Hou Boyan looked around to confirm no one was present, then lowered his voice. It was so low that an ordinary person couldn't hear it even if spoken in their ear.

"Wei Henian's man? Coming for me?"

Li Yunjing was startled. He had thought that someone of Wei Henian's stature, focused on major affairs, would have long forgotten about him. He hadn't expected to be waiting for him here!

"Yes! Ye Long said he's here to deliver Senior Brother Wei's order, specifically targeting you!"

Hou Boyan nodded repeatedly, his face filled with dread.

The revenge of a true disciple was like the sky collapsing.

People like Hou Boyan could be crushed by Wei Henian with a single finger!

The power gap between them was like heaven and earth.

Wei Henian's small arrangement was filled with infinite killing intent!

As for any sect rules, they were easily bypassed by true disciples!
