PDLP Chapter 20 The Intent to Kill Arises
Chapter 20 The Intent to Kill Arises
In order to maintain order and order among all the Daoist traditions and legal systems in the world, Baiyujing was created.
Slaughtering cultivators of this realm is disliked by Heaven and Earth. Low-level cultivators may not be able to detect it, but once they attain the Golden Core stage, they can clearly sense it.
In order to gain the favor of the Heavenly Dao, these Golden Core cultivators would travel to places outside the Azure Lotus World to find small grotto-heavens and drag them into the Azure Lotus World.
After the grotto-heaven merges into the Azure Lotus World, it awaits the complete integration of its origins.
It can increase the spiritual veins of the Azure Lotus World, replenish the resources consumed by Golden Core cultivators, increase the total amount of spiritual energy of heaven and earth, and nourish the will of heaven.
To mend the deficiencies of heaven and earth, and to shoulder the responsibilities of the Way of Heaven.
"No wonder this Azure Lotus World is so large. Over the past ten thousand years, countless Golden Core cultivators have brought food to it, yet it has still managed to feed such a big fat man."
"So, in this world, there isn't a single Golden Core cultivator who doesn't have a job."
Even Li Ya, with only ten Qi Refining Level 2 ants, could imagine it.
Some grotto-heavens can give birth to powerful creatures. If you want to control these grotto-heavens, it would be good to subdue these creatures. Otherwise, you might end up slaughtering the entire grotto-heavens.
"Hey, why would I want to do this! You're just a little thing who hasn't even reached the peak of Qi Refining yet."
Li Ya couldn't help but laugh at himself, while at this moment, many cultivators in the arena were already fighting tooth and nail.
Some have already sent messages to their elders to send money, while others who don't have any "old monsters" in their families have started pooling money with acquaintances to compete for this opportunity.
"Alas, a few more heartbroken cultivators have been added to this world!"
Li Linfeng slowly got up and stretched.
This trip to Qianjin Pavilion was very fruitful. After straightening his clothes and covering his face, he prepared to leave.
The servant in blue robes who was guarding outside the door bowed respectfully when he saw Li Ya come out.
"Is there a direct road to Wanbaolou from here?"
Upon hearing this, he was slightly surprised. It wasn't over yet, and he was leaving. What was the reason? But he didn't dare to ask any further questions.
So he quickly bowed and replied:
"Taoist Master, this way please."
Having said that, he turned around and led the way to a place where people could climb a ladder, and then opened the gate for Li Ya.
Take out the "Goods Connecting to the World" card, swipe it across the elevator, and press to select the desired floor.
In an instant, a gentle restriction descended, and I felt my body sink. When I opened my eyes again, the cloud ladder had come to a steady stop on a new floor.
"Which floor is this?"
The servants outside the door were dressed exactly the same way as those at Qianjin Pavilion, except one was black and the other was yellow.
Upon hearing Li Ya's question, he quickly replied, "Daoist, this is the back area on the first floor of Wanbaolou."
Those who can take the cloud ladder from the Thousand Gold Pavilion to the Myriad Treasures Pavilion are all distinguished guests with the "Goods Sold Throughout the World" badge; we cannot delay them.
Following the servant's directions, Li Ya walked out of Wanbaolou and onto the main road of Sifang Town.
On the main road, bustling with activity and traffic, Li Ya had a strange feeling of being in another world.
Seeing that it was still early, I mingled with the crowd.
After leaving Sifang Town, Li Ya quickened his pace and headed towards Beitian.
As Li Ya entered Wei Quezhu Building, a pungent medicinal smell wafted out, causing him to frown.
She knocked gently on the door, her voice warm: "Second Brother, are you home?"
Inside the bamboo building, a suppressed cough came from inside, followed by Wei Que's voice, full of a stifled feeling as he tried to stay awake.
"Brother Xiaoya, what brings you here? I've had too much to drink and I'm really tired. Please come again next time!"
There were naturally no restrictions on this bamboo house. Li Ya channeled a wisp of true energy, pushed open the door latch, and entered.
On the tiger-skin bed, Wei Que lay pale, his lips cracked, and faint traces of blood remained on the bedding.
His body was bandaged in many places, and bloodstains were faintly seeping through the white cloth.
His breath was weak, and his internal energy was disordered.
Upon seeing Li Ya, Wei Que avoided eye contact and quickly pulled the blanket up to conceal his injuries.
A surge of anger rose in Li Ya's heart, and the Azure Mist True Qi in his Qi Sea also surged. He quickly walked to the bedside, sat down, and laughed.
"Second brother, you got beaten up for sneaking into the widows' quarters at night?"
"Brother Xiaoya, I'm as cowardly as a mouse; how could I dare to kick down the widow's curtain!"
"Is it that you dare not, rather than that you don't want to?"
"Haha... Little Cliff... Ouch... That hurts..."
Li Ya laughed along with him, but in the end, he lowered his head.
"Brother Wei, you are a kind-hearted man in Beitian, cautious and prudent, and would never cause trouble."
"Besides, he's already a long-time resident of Beitian, so I doubt the new manager will make things difficult for him!"
"The fact that my second brother was beaten like this, and that he doesn't want me to know, makes me suspect it's related to me!"
Wei Que wanted to stop smiling, but his face was injured, and pulling back his smile would only aggravate the pain.
"No, that's not true. I just had a loose tongue and made fun of others, so I got a beating. It's nothing serious!"
Li Ya gripped his trembling legs tightly, his eyes fixed on the ground.
"Who did it?"
Despite the pain, Wei Que pulled his hand away, intending to pat Li Ya's shoulder.
"Brother Xiaoya, it's really nothing. It was my own fault for being so talkative. I deserve to be hit."
"Second Brother..."
Li Ya drew out the last syllable and suddenly looked up at Wei Que.
Wei Que's hand froze in mid-air, then he struggled to pull it back, shrinking deeper into the blankets. As if realizing it wasn't working, he turned over and faced away from Li Ya.
A red dot behind him quickly spread out, turning into a large red area in a short while.
"Please, don't ask anymore, Brother Xiaoya, I'm begging you!"
"If you consider me your older brother, then pretend you've never met me."
"Don't get involved with those scoundrels. You've finally got a chance to improve yourself; don't let me drag you down!"
Li Ya didn't speak, but quietly took out the healing pills and dissolved them in water.
"Little Cliff, I truly hope you can go far away. Do you know why?"
He didn't give Li Ya a time to answer, and continued speaking to himself.
"Brother Xiaoya, everyone has misjudged me. I am actually an extremely selfish person."
"In my hometown, there is a small aristocratic family, and there is a cultivator at the sixth level of Qi Refining in the family."
"You have no idea, my brother and I have been working like slaves for this family."
"They really don't treat us like human beings. When we're looking after the rice, those pests are as big as fists."
"My younger brother was playing and accidentally crushed a stalk of sacred rice. The clan leader saw this and was about to drag him away to be flogged. I begged and pleaded..."
"The foreman made me crawl around the rice paddies, barking like a dog as I went. I was young and didn't understand, so while I was barking, he clapped his hands, probably thinking I was playing with him..."
"When his palms started to bleed, he realized something was wrong and started crying. The foreman thought the crying was noisy and annoying, so he said, 'Every time my little brother cries, I have to climb one more lap...'"
"He didn't understand any of this, he just kept crying, and I just kept crawling..."
Li Ya's hand, which was holding the water bowl, rested limply on his lap as he looked up at the roof beams.
"Later, when I grew a little older, he died... I ran away for my life, not knowing where to go, I just knew I had to keep running forward..."
"Later, I arrived at Yunfu Sect. I thought that God had given me a chance. I wanted to cultivate immortality, I wanted to make a name for myself, and I wanted to go back and take revenge."
"I did the most dangerous work in the Hundred Beast Garden. I used any means necessary, even cheating other servants for a tael of red copper. I worked hard to save money, day and night, just to improve my cultivation."
"I'm just a piece of trash, not good enough, not bad enough!"
"The more I cultivated, the more I realized how high a mountain the sixth level of Qi Refining was. Later on, even my spirit was worn away."
"I used my savings to find a job in Beitian. I'm afraid to go back for revenge, because I simply can't..."
Wei Que's strength was waning.
"Brother Xiaoya, why am I being so nice to you out of all these people? You really look so much like my younger brother. Please, don't worry about me. Focus on your cultivation, climb up high..."
Wei Que's voice grew softer and softer until he finally fell asleep, still unconsciously babbling incoherently.
After a long while, Li Ya finally got up and fed Wei Que the dissolved pills spoonful by spoonful.
With this medicine, the injury should stabilize. As long as I take good care of myself, there shouldn't be any problems.
Li Ya turned to leave, but suddenly stopped as he stepped out of the room.
"Second Brother, they attained the Golden Core, so why can't I?"
……
With money to pave the way, the outsiders will have a clear understanding of Wei Que's situation.
Shen Ze, Lin Buxie, Zhang Xuyang.
Li Ya imprinted these three names firmly in his mind, and spent some money to have the other servants help Wei Que look after the Bei Tian he was assigned to.
After pausing to deduce the method of refining the sword pellet, Li Ya didn't believe that these three would gang up on his second brother, this kind-hearted man, for no reason.
These three people had no prior contact, so how did they end up together?
"Please tell me, Ling Shu, why are Shen Ze, Lin Buxie, and Zhang Xuyang targeting Wei Que?"
