Questioning His Life, Escaping Disaster

Jiu Jianxian had only just joined the Myriad Worlds Chat Group.

And the group leader, Great Immortal Divine Charlatan, had already half duped him.

Shi Hao shook his head as he watched.

Sure enough, people who drank weren't quite clearheaded, were they?

Jiu Jianxian was the illustrious number two of Mount Shu, a powerful immortal cultivator.

Yet the group leader, Great Immortal Divine Charlatan, had half duped him with just a few words, relying on spoilers and smooth talk.

"Looks like it's only a matter of time... before the group leader, Great Immortal Divine Charlatan, completely dupes Jiu Jianxian."

Shi Hao just watched.

Seeing this,

Shi Hao went offline from the chat group and went back to drinking his beast milk!

Meanwhile, there was Mu Feibai, the third disciple of Li Yingqiong, head of the Emei Sect.

Mu Feibai had secretly carried on an affair with the fox spirit Great Fairy Yun, and they had several children.

As soon as something happened to the fox spirit Great Fairy Yun, Mu Feibai asked his master, Li Yingqiong, to let him travel for a while.

Li Yingqiong was a Heavenly Immortal who had risen from humble beginnings, and she had always been lenient with her own disciples.

Naturally,

Li Yingqiong granted Mu Feibai's request, allowing him to travel for half a year.

"I have to hurry and see..."

Meanwhile,

As soon as Mu Feibai left Emei, he headed straight for Guobei County!

The Emei Sect had an art called the "Heavenly Secrets Technique."

By cultivating the Heavenly Secrets Technique, one could divine and calculate, working out the vast majority of things in the world.

Mu Feibai began making calculations, and through his rather unpracticed Heavenly Secrets Technique, he learned that his fox spirit Dao companion, Great Fairy Yun, had met with trouble in Guobei County!

Riding the wind on his flying sword, Mu Feibai soon arrived in Guobei County!

Mu Feibai began investigating, using the Heavenly Secrets Technique to make deductions as he went!

Then!

Mu Feibai froze as though struck by lightning, looking completely... dumbstruck!

"M-my Dao companion, Great Fairy Yun, actually died at a beggar's hands?"

Mu Feibai was on the verge of tears!

Great Fairy Yun had died such a miserable death: she had died at a beggar's hands, and the body she had possessed when she died had even been eaten by that beggar.

And Mu Feibai truly couldn't avenge Great Fairy Yun.

"You... you want me to kill a beggar? I can't do it!"

From a young age, Mu Feibai had been taught by Li Yingqiong to be an upright person.

One could say

that carrying on an affair with the fox spirit Great Fairy Yun and having several children with her was the biggest stain on Mu Feibai's record!

To make Mu Feibai kill a mortal beggar...

Mu Feibai secretly observed the beggar who had ultimately killed his Dao companion, Great Fairy Yun.

Mu Feibai discovered that he was, through and through, an ordinary beggar.

The beggar's name was "Han Erlengzi."

Han Erlengzi was a little slow in the head and also suffered from "epilepsy." He had seizures every day and couldn't find any normal work to do.

So Han Erlengzi could only be a beggar, begging along the streets and passing his days in emptiness.

"I can't do it... I can't kill a beggar like that."

"I'm sorry... Great Fairy Yun, I can't avenge you."

Mu Feibai gritted his teeth, tears falling from his eyes, but the upbringing he had received since childhood left him unable to do something like killing "a sick, simpleminded beggar."

Mu Feibai sighed, utterly dejected.

"That's right, I still have my daughters!"

Mu Feibai began making calculations again.

Combined with the news he had gathered in Guobei County,

Mu Feibai discovered that his second daughter and youngest daughter had both died in Guobei County!

"This..."

"This time, I must avenge my daughters!"

Even though his daughters were fox spirits too, Mu Feibai still cared deeply about them and worried about them.

If Emei did not forbid taking monsters as disciples,

Mu Feibai would have brought his daughters into Emei long ago.

But now...

Two of his daughters had died in Guobei County!

Mu Feibai burned with the fire of vengeance!

Using the information he had gathered in Guobei County, Mu Feibai began making calculations with the "Heavenly Secrets Technique."

Then,

Mu Feibai was even more stunned. Combining his Heavenly Secrets Technique calculations with the information from Guobei County, he discovered that both his daughters had been beaten to death by a three-year-old child!

Mu Feibai suspected something had gone wrong with his Heavenly Secrets Technique!

But the Heavenly Secrets Technique was one of the Emei Sect's most closely guarded secret teachings, passed down only to direct disciples!

Without an immortal interfering, nothing could go wrong with the Heavenly Secrets Technique! Even if Mu Feibai wasn't very skilled at using it.

"So... both my daughters, my second daughter and my youngest, were killed by a three-year-old child?"

"My Dao companion, Great Fairy Yun, was killed by a simpleminded beggar?"

"I..."

Mu Feibai spat out a mouthful of blood. How was he supposed to take revenge? How was he supposed to take revenge now??

Mu Feibai went up into the sky and used a spell to observe the Shi Residence...

It happened to be dusk when Mu Feibai observed the Shi Residence.

Little Shi Hao was eating with his parents.

Mu Feibai looked at Little Shi Hao, the three-year-old human child, and drew a deep breath.

Even if he, Mu Feibai, had gone utterly mad, he still couldn't bring himself to strike a three-year-old child!

If he dared to kill a three-year-old child...

Mu Feibai believed that his master, the Heavenly Immortal Li Yingqiong, would personally strike him down to clean house.

"What a sin!"

"Was I, Mu Feibai, wrong?"

"Is it because I got together with a monster... that heaven is punishing me?"

Mu Feibai was in great pain, and just then, it began to rain.

Mu Feibai flew through the sky, the cold rain beating against his face.

Mu Feibai's expression twisted with conflict!

"I still have three daughters!"

"To hell with it! Even if those three daughters of mine are fox spirits, I have to bring them back to Emei!"

"Even if Master punishes me because of them, I'll accept it!"
