Chapter 110: Committing a Crime Against the Wind (Bonus chapter for Alliance Leader 'Loli Destroyer Controller')

Aunt Liu covered her mouth, coughed muffledly a few times, wiped the blood from her lips, looked up with gloomy eyes, and said: "Little Fengxian, how about helping me kill someone?"

Her goose-egg face, still possessing charm, was as white as paper, her eyes as dark as an injured lone wolf, flashing with a chilling ruthlessness.

Xiao Yu said dryly: "Aunt, you understand our current situation; it's already a blessing from heaven that we aren't being killed. Who do you want me to kill?"

Aunt Liu shifted her gaze and sighed lightly: "Forget it, just pretend you heard nothing. I was just grabbing at straws in my illness."

"Aunt Liu, is your injury serious? Do you want to find a physician to take a look?" Xiao Yu asked.

"It was just grazed by a poison palm; it's nothing serious," Aunt Liu said.

"Poison palm..." Xiao Yu's heart stirred. She approached Aunt Liu, carefully observing her eyes and complexion, and even lightly sniffed the lingering smell of blood in the air.

"What are you doing?" Aunt Liu leaned back, avoiding her strange movements.

Xiao Yu also sat on the "Beauty Railing," moving her butt next to Aunt Liu, and said: "Aunt, do you know that my Northern Wilderness Sha Man has a unique skill: using poison!"

She pointed to her chest with her onion-white fingers, "I am actually also a master of poison!"

Aunt Liu said disdainfully: "I know a little about the methods you Sha Man use to poison. In one word: crude!"

Seeing Xiao Yu's displeasure, she added: "Don't be unconvinced. What you Sha Man use is still poison with form and substance.

Poison with form and substance is easy to avoid and easy to treat with targeted antidotes.

Integrating poison into true Qi, mixing it with heavenly and earthly Yuan Qi, and even cultivating it into divine will—formless and substanceless, continuous like silk, like a living thing, endless and infinite—that is true poison cultivation."

Xiao Yu's heart pounded upon hearing this: this seems to be exactly what I need!

She came to find Aunt Liu this time specifically to solve the "Controllable Super DeBuff" problem that had troubled her for a long time.

Her strength was increasing too fast.

She often couldn't fully tap into the potential of her "Foster Fathers," needing a DeBuff to lower her own combat power.

The DeBuff not only had to be strong, but also had to be completely under her control.

Long-term self-mutilation was not advisable.

What if she encountered an assassination by the "Eight Immortals of the West" while in a low-health state? Wouldn't she die too miserably?

Xiao Yu thought of an old friend: poison!

Use poison to apply a DeBuff, and when encountering a strong enemy, instantly neutralize the poison to return to her peak state.

First, Xiao Yu had to determine if the poison DeBuff could exploit the Purple Mansion's bug. If the "Method of Father-Destroying" provided by the Purple Mansion wasn't aimed at the Foster Father's skills, but was poison, and it told her to eat an antidote, then she couldn't exploit the bug.

Secondly, she had to have the conditions to develop and improve poison.

She came to find Aunt Liu to discuss the purchase and configuration of medicinal herbs.

She was being watched now; if she secretly researched poison without reporting it, it would definitely bring big trouble.

Now Aunt Liu had taken the initiative to mention poison cultivation...

"Aunt Liu, who was the poison cultivation master who injured you? What poison cultivation did they use?"

Aunt Liu waved her hand and said: "I was truly confused just now. Your identity is special, and you can barely protect yourself; you are indeed not suitable to be involved in the internal strife of the Profound Heaven Society."

Xiao Yu's expression was tangled: you should at least take me to worship a "Father" first!

If the involvement is too deep and truly endangers my life, I will naturally stand by and watch you be poisoned to death by a poison palm, and after the enemy leaves, I will step in to help collect your corpse, ask a filial son to smash a basin for you, and ask monks and Daoists to chant the "Head-Down Scripture" at your grave.

If it's just an "old rascal" like the Great Master of Bu Si Gui, I'll kill him with one sword, and you will have your revenge, and I will also feel great.

By the way, I can loot the corpse and find his poison cultivation secret manual; it wouldn't be in vain for me to be a transmigrator once.

"The Profound Heaven Society shouldn't have any masters, right?" Xiao Yu asked.

Aunt Liu glanced at her sideways, "Do you understand the Profound Heaven Society?"

Xiao Yu said honestly: "I heard from the neighbors in Soy Sauce Alley that it's a black-market gang formed by a bunch of low-class bastards.

But how many elders the Profound Heaven Society has, who the elders are, and what martial arts they know, they don't know."

"Low-class..." Aunt Liu sighed, "Aren't we brothel madams just low-class bastards!"

Xiao Yu probed: "If the other party is just about the same as the Great Master of Bu Si Gui..."

Aunt Liu waved her hand: "Far from it! A poison cultivation master who is a half-step human immortal could slaughter everyone in Qingshuiwan silently, including you."

"Hiss, half-step human immortal... I haven't heard of many human immortals in Profound Heaven Town! A dignified half-step human immortal, why mix in the black market?" Xiao Yu asked, puzzled.

Aunt Liu's eyes flickered, and she asked: "What do the neighbors say about the Master of the Profound Heaven Society?"

Xiao Yu said: "The Profound Heaven Society Master is named Lei Zhen, and he has a son named 'Lei Tianyang.' Both father and son are quite mysterious; the neighbors don't have much of an impression."

"No impression..." Aunt Liu first gave a bitter smile, then gritted her teeth and said: "This group of ungrateful commoners, they aren't even as good as low-class bastards!"

"Do the neighbors need to be grateful to Master Lei?" Xiao Yu asked curiously.

Aunt Liu said excitedly: "Last year, a million-strong army from thirty-six countries pressed down on Profound Heaven Town. Profound Heaven Town was in panic, and the powerful and wealthy fled south one after another.

Master Lei resolutely took his son and two hundred elite followers to sneak behind enemy lines, gathering information, planting spies, burning grain, and assassinating enemy generals...

In just half a month, only twenty-five of the two-hundred-man team remained.

Master Lei Zhen himself was also seriously injured by a human immortal.

Their sacrifice bought precious time for the Marquis of Lieyang to cross west!"

Xiao Yu said strangely: "But the story I heard doesn't seem to be like this. There was indeed a peerless hero who led a group of Western Shu heroes deep behind enemy lines.

The great hero isn't named 'Lei Zhen,' but the son of the Prince of Qinghe, the number one on the Western Shu War God List, Li Xianzhi!"

The expression on Aunt Liu's face was unnatural for a moment, and she said: "Master Lei is the right-hand man of Prince Li."

So Lei Zhen wasn't an unknown hero, just his name wasn't loud enough, completely overshadowed by Li Xianzhi's brilliance.

In the neighbors' accounts, Li Xianzhi was a legendary figure who fought two human immortals with "Ten Thousand Swords Returning to Origin" and was able to retreat calmly.

And Li Xianzhi wasn't a human immortal, not even a half-step human immortal.

Widow Huang firmly believed that "Young Master Li" cultivated immortal arts and would definitely become an immortal in the future.

"Aunt, you are the leader of Qingshuiwan, a subordinate of Master Lei; why don't you ask him to take action?"

As soon as Xiao Yu said this, she realized it herself: Aunt Liu had just explicitly stated that there was internal strife in the Profound Heaven Society.

"I mean, why does Master Lei watch you fight internally and not care?" she hurriedly added.

Aunt Liu waved her hand and said: "It has nothing to do with you; don't ask too much."

Thinking that the poison cultivation big shot was already a half-step human immortal, Xiao Yu also hesitated in her heart.

She wouldn't look down on human immortals just because she happened to kill Kong Zan.

Not to mention anything else, the "Method of Killing Zhou Lang" hadn't finished deducing yet!

She had broken seven or eight out of ten of the sword-control arts of the Wave Moon Loose Practitioner Zhou Lang.

But besides flying sword assassination, Zhou Lang also had "Body-Protecting Sword Clothing."

If she couldn't break the sword clothing, she couldn't kill Zhou Lang.

And being able to crush Zhou Lang's flying sword back then relied on the power of the Three Thousand Fire Crow Army Formation.

After discovering that she was particularly familiar with Zhou Lang's sword-control arts, the Marquis of Lieyang specifically tilted the power of the Fire Crow Army Formation toward her, allowing her to control two "Dragon Claws."

If they were to clash head-on now, Xiao Yu would likely be killed by Zhou Lang... of course, that was on the premise that Zhou Lang recovered from the injury of his broken sword.

That day, Xiao Yu had crippled five of his life-bound flying swords, and the man was almost ruined.

A ruined Zhou Lang might not be able to kill Xiao Yu even in a fair head-to-head fight.

But a half-step human immortal poison cultivation master wasn't ruined!

"Aunt Liu~~" Zi Ying ran to Aunt Liu's side, panting and saying urgently: "I just saw Xu Hui'er; Aunt, how could you let her come to the Red Sleeve Workshop?"

Aunt Liu said unhappily: "You've grown a temper; you even dare to lecture me."

Zi Ying stomped her foot and shouted anxiously: "I'm worried that Aunt will be dragged to the temple by Grandpa Guan Chenghuang to be beaten with boards tonight!"

Aunt Liu sneered: "You only know that Grandpa Guan Chenghuang beat others with boards, but you don't know that the next night, someone splashed two large buckets of black dog blood on the Guan Chenghuang Temple and threw seventy or eighty menstrual belts."

"Splashing black dog blood, what for?" Zi Ying asked blankly.

"Knowing too much is no good for you; go back!" Aunt Liu waved her hand.

Zi Ying left with doubt and hesitation.

Xiao Yu asked curiously: "Can black dog blood hurt Grandpa Guan Chenghuang?"

"Of course not, but it can disgust the gods and show an attitude of 'I have one rotten life, I dare to fight to the death'," Aunt Liu said.

"Who did it? Bu Si Gui?"

Aunt Liu glanced at her, "Your little shoulders are only a bit wider than Zi Ying's; you still can't carry it."

Xiao Yu said seriously: "I don't need to carry it; I firmly stand by Grandpa Guan Chenghuang's side."

Aunt Liu said: "The thoughts of the common people, the plight of the common people."

Xiao Yu thought of Hong Qu's words: the Guan Chenghuang can manage the people, but not the officials.

"I am a commoner, but Aunt, aren't you a high official or noble?"

——Guan Guan Chenghuang can't toss the official master, but can't he beat your brothel madam's boards?

"You don't need to worry for me; if I truly see Grandpa Guan Chenghuang, I have reasons to excuse myself."

Aunt Liu counted on her fingers: "First, it's Grandpa Guan Chenghuang's own fault.

He only punished the bad guys but didn't return the jade pendant to the owner; Old Xu still doesn't have a single copper coin.

Secondly, the bastards of Bu Si Gui are committing crimes against the wind.

Bu Si Gui doesn't want to see the people of Profound Heaven Town revere the Guan Chenghuang more than them.

After all, 'Old Xu' isn't the only one who owes money.

It is they who insisted on having a go with Zhu Yitao and the Guan Chenghuang.

Finally, the 'Dream Spring Chamber' in Qingshuiwan, Lady Hong, is coming to do business, and the Red Sleeve Workshop is open for business; we can't turn guests away.

Also, the Red Sleeve Workshop is managed by me, but it is not my industry.

If Grandpa Guan Chenghuang dares to beat my boards, I dare to cry injustice on the street in front of the Guan Chenghuang Temple with my bare, beaten buttocks.

Let the people of Profound Heaven Town judge; anyway, I am a madam, I don't want face!"

Xiao Yu's expression twisted; there are too many stubborn people who don't want face or life, and Grandpa Guan Chenghuang seems to have a hard time too!

"Don't you know that the Guan Chenghuang can change the Book of Life and Death?"

Aunt Liu sighed: "I am afraid in my heart, after all, I am not left with nothing, but there are too many people in this world who lick blood from the blade and have no scruples.

They can't even manage their current days; isn't it ridiculous to talk to them about the next life?

Moreover, compared to honest, suffering people like Aunt Xu, being reincarnated as an animal might not be a blessing.

You often run to the Soy Sauce Alley in the back; you must have seen 'Fu Gui' at the back door of our Red Sleeve Workshop.

Does it live more dashingly than many of the girls?"

Little Jing Pavilion is in the most corner of the Red Sleeve Workshop. Walking out along Soy Sauce Alley for about a hundred meters, you can see the real back door of the Red Sleeve Workshop. Besides the back door, the Red Sleeve Workshop has many side doors; the Bee-Keeping Alley where Xiao Yu gets the bone-strengthening soup packets is one of the many side doors.

There is a Chinese rural dog at the back door, fat and strong, with soft and smooth fur, and its name is "Fu Gui."

It's a bit heart-stabbing, but it's a fact: a dog at the back door of a brothel lives more comfortably than some brothel girls.

If people in the world live worse than animals, then how much meaning is left in the Six Paths of Reincarnation education (intimidation) used by gods and Buddhas on mortals?

"Aunt, something happened!"

While Xiao Yu was letting her imagination run wild, Zi Ying ran over panting again, "Aunt, Zhu Yitao sent people to catch you and beat your butt!"

"Zhu Yitao... he dares to beat my butt?!" Aunt Liu stood up abruptly and sneered: "Who came? How dare they shout in the Red Sleeve Workshop to beat my butt, what big dog guts!"

"I don't know, there are more than a dozen government office runners in official uniforms."

Zi Ying started stomping her feet again, her face flushed with anxiety, saying: "I warned Aunt earlier that you shouldn't have let Xu Hui'er in. Zhu Yitao, Grandpa Guan Chenghuang, and even the people of Profound Heaven Town are all staring at the Xu family, and you still dare to commit a crime against the wind!"

"It's not me who is committing a crime against the wind; at most, I'm just helping with the final cleanup..."

Aunt Liu froze for a moment, then cursed: "I'll shove your ancestors, Zhu Yitao; you actually treated me as the softest persimmon!" ===== CHAPTER 111 =====
