Chapter 217: Yang Qingxi is Dead

~11 min read 2,136 words

Coffin Master said: "Listen to your Jar Master; in martial arts, he has more say. You walked too fast in the first three seas, and you cannot destroy your foundation again."

"With your cultivation of perfecting the fourth sea, your combat power is enough to tie with Yang Qingxi, Chen Wenwu, and these pure immortal bodies of the Seventh Sea. If you add the seven Phoenix Wing Moth Emperors, it is not impossible to compete with weaker inheritors."

"With such combat power and cultivation speed, as long as the people of Du'e Temple are not blind, they all know that you are the most terrifying Hidden Dragon."

"During the Hidden Dragon Lantern Festival, if you are really as strong as the Dragon Palace and Lu Cangsheng, it would be a very dangerous thing. Now on Peach Plum Mountain, I don't know how many eyes are staring; didn't Jiang Ning say that even Xian Min of Lingxiao Palace has come!"

"As for the Longevity Pill, with the strength of Cang Li and Yin Jiu, it should not be difficult to seize one. You must not carry all the responsibilities on your own shoulders; think clearly, participating in the Hidden Dragon Lantern Festival is to temper yourself, not to fight for your life."

Li Youyi had the temperament of a youth, so naturally he was not reconciled, and suddenly thought of something: "Since so many old guys have come, will the Phoenix Wing Moth Emperors be recognized? The strength they displayed is too extraordinary, and I'm afraid many people won't believe they are just commander-level exotic insects."

Before, he claimed to the outside world that these were commander-level exotic insects, Five-Colored Spirit Moths.

Commander-level exotic insects, when adults, have the strength of the Dao Seed Realm. Although rare, they are not enough to attract the attention of Longevity Realm giants.

The voice of the Spirit Position Master sounded: "Rest assured, I have my own arrangements. In the few days you were practicing, I let them all swallow immortal soil. With the influence of the aura of immortal soil and Xihe flowers, as long as they are not personally probed, in a short time, no one can recognize that they are Phoenix Wing Moth Emperors."

"If it really can't be covered up, you can tell the outside world that these are Marquis-level exotic insects, Xihe Butterflies."

Li Youyi then discovered that his immortal soil medicine field had been messed up by the seven little ones.

The only two remaining thousand-year-old essence medicines planted in the medicine field were naturally eaten clean by them.

If they were placed in the medicine garden of some ten-million-gate, Li Youyi seriously doubted that they could eat themselves to death.

The bodies of the seven Phoenix Wing Moth Emperors had grown to six and a half inches, and their strength had clearly improved again. According to this growth rate, it was entirely possible to grow to seven inches before the Lantern Festival and reach the Sixth Sea Realm of Wu Xiu.

With the combat power of the emperor-level exotic insect cubs...

Li Youyi touched his chin and pinned the hope of this Hidden Dragon Lantern Festival on the seven little ones. Because, as the realm grew, the special powers of the seven little ones appeared one after another, the attack methods were no longer single, and the combat power increased again.

Thinking of this, Li Youyi was in a good mood and immediately picked another Xihe flower to prepare for them.

"They grew from five inches to six inches, eating two thousand-year-old essence medicines and three Xihe flowers."

"Now eating two thousand-year-old essence medicines, they only grew half an inch. To raise them to seven inches, I'm afraid I have to prepare two more thousand-year-old essence medicines."

At this thought, Li Youyi felt a pain in his heart, thinking of the five boxes of Yongquan coins snatched away by Yang Qingxi.

You must know, that was not just five boxes of Yongquan coins, but also the various betting treasures of the last day.

Among them was the 1600-year-old Black Dragon Grass brought out by Lu Wensheng.

This one plant alone had medicinal power comparable to two ordinary thousand-year-old essence medicines.

If those five boxes were still there, why worry about thousand-year-old essence medicines?

"Must find them back! Raising insects is a money-burning thing; my Five Seas Realm cultivation also needs quite a few Dao Lotuses and Dao Fruits."

Li Youyi prepared to leave the Blood Mud Space and set about solving the problem of thousand-year-old essence medicines.

Naturally, he couldn't pin all his hopes on the seven Phoenix Wing Moth Emperors; his own strength still had room for improvement.

These seven days, he was quenching Qi and taking immortal soil internally. As long as the muscles and internal organs were shaped, his combat power could be improved by another step.

As for practicing the tendons and skin in seven or eight days, that was a daydream.

No matter how difficult, the fighting spirit cannot be extinguished.

"Your current state, once you fight with others, especially with experts of the same level, the magic power of the fourth sea is very likely to appear out of control. You must pay attention to this point!"

Before leaving, Jar Master warned like this.

"Creak!"

On the seventh day of the first lunar month, Li Youyi finally walked out of the room.

The weather was gloomy and harsh, heavy snow was falling, and the eyes were full of snowflakes, which could affect vision, without any beauty.

This was the biggest snow Li Youyi had ever seen since he was born. It was clearly the afternoon, but there was a sense of dusk.

Heading to Yin Jiu's residence, he found it empty.

Cang Li's residence was adjacent to Yin Jiu's.

Li Youyi just stepped into the door.

Cang Li's voice came from inside: "He left in the morning, ordered three coffins, and transported the corpses of the three major experts of the Yin Gate to the South City first. After the Hidden Dragon Lantern Festival, he wants to personally send Qin Li and the others back to Lizhou, to let the fallen leaves return to their roots. I will try my best to fight for them to be buried in the ancestral realm and give them the highest honor."

On the surface, Cang Li's injuries had healed, only his face was still quite sickly, and he no longer had the tragic appearance of seven days ago.

He stopped practicing, went to the table, poured a cup of clear tea and drank it: "Shall we talk?"

Li Youyi walked to the window and propped up the wooden window, letting the cold wind vent on his body: "How is your injury recovering?"

"It healed yesterday; the current appearance is to pretend for Tang Wanqiu," Cang Li sat down in the chair and said again: "Do you know why Du'e Temple chose the Zuoqiu Gate instead of the more powerful Snow Sword Tang Ting?"

"Why?"

In this regard, Li Youyi was naturally not as good as Cang Li, who was born and raised in this world.

Cang Li said: "Snow Sword Tang Ting, although it took down five prefectures in the North Realm, has mixed forces and countless mountain heads inside. Yin Mountain, Yue Clan, Wanyan Clan, and Tuoba Clan are all powerful, and they were forcibly integrated over ten years."

"Ten years of war, they have formed not small hatreds with each other. Currently, Snow Sword Tang Ting is the biggest mountain head, and they have used marriage to bind everyone to their chariot. As long as they can keep winning and sweep the world, naturally there will be no problems, because there are benefits to be gained."

"But once they suffer a defeat, or Snow Sword Tang Ting has a major change, I'm afraid it will instantly disintegrate from the inside and become a plate of loose sand."

"By comparison, the Zuoqiu Gate, although it only has two and a half prefectures, has been managed for thousands of years and is already deeply rooted. Coupled with the full support of the Nine Li Tribe, it actually controls half of the South Realm."

"If it weren't for the far-west ash region intervening, during the Hidden Dragon Lantern Festival, they could have subdued factions like Tianya Ridge, Coffin Mountain, and Night City without a fight, and then also controlled five prefectures. With the Nine Li Tribe helping them stabilize the rear, they could walk more steadily than Snow Sword Tang Ting."

Li Youyi said: "We are just insignificant juniors; is it necessary to consider so much?"

"Do you really think that the impact of the Hidden Dragon Lantern Festival on the world situation is insignificant?"

Cang Li transmitted with magic power, whispering: "If Du'e Temple determines that the next generation of the Zuoqiu Gate really has the talent of the Son of Heaven, and is the next Chan Hai Guan Wu. Then the high-level figures of Coffin Mountain, Tianya Ridge, and Night City will not be able to walk out of Qiuzhou Prefecture City after the Hidden Dragon Lantern Festival."

"This may not be a killing game aimed at dissidents in the South Realm, luring the snake out of the hole."

"Even the reason for killing them is there: colluding with the far-west ash region, the powerhouses of other factions in the Lingxiao Life Realm simply cannot pick out any faults and will not provoke public anger."

Li Youyi was shocked, not expecting Cang Li to have such unique insights into the world situation and the Hidden Dragon Lantern Festival.

Cang Li said: "These seven days, many things have happened in the city, and all major top factions are expanding their territory, collecting Dragon Seed tickets and Dragon Bone tickets. Small factions and individual Wu Xiu have no living space and can only rely on large factions."

"Seven days have passed, and I expect Tang Wanqiu must be impatient; there will be action in these two days. You don't participate; anyway, you didn't promise him anything."

Suddenly, Li Youyi asked: "Can you get thousand-year-old essence medicines? Cold-attribute ones."

"Feeding insects?" Cang Li said.

Li Youyi was surprised: "How do you know?"

"The whole city is spreading that you have raised seven Marquis-level exotic insects, and once they become adults, they will be seven Longevity Realm giants. Too many people want to put you to death; I have sent people to check the source of the news, and there should be results soon," Cang Li said.

Li Youyi secretly rejoiced.

The people who want to put him to death still don't have enough bold imagination.

Cang Li saw that Li Youyi's expression did not change at all, and his heart moved greatly, exclaiming: "It really is seven Marquis-level exotic insects?"

"Hey! Can't hide it from you... must keep it secret for me," Li Youyi said.

Cang Li nodded slightly: "I will find a way for you regarding the thousand-year-old essence medicines; it will take some time."

Outside the door, hurried footsteps rang out.

Li Ling returned, looking like something important had happened, and looked at Li Youyi quite strangely: "Yang Qingxi is dead!"

"Ah!"

Li Youyi and Cang Li were both surprised.

"Who killed her?" Cang Li asked.

Li Ling looked at Li Youyi and said: "Him!"

"Don't slander people; I have been in seclusion for these seven days, not stepping out of the door," Li Youyi said.

Li Ling said: "Yang Qingxi... to be precise, her name is Yang Qingchan, and she died on the night seven days ago. The corpse fell into the river and was fished up only this morning when it washed up to the Soldier Ancestor Swamp. Yao Qian and Yang Qingxi personally rushed to verify the injuries and determined that it was definitely killed by Li Youyi. Yao Qian released words that after the Hidden Dragon Lantern Festival, he will definitely behead Li Youyi in front of Yang Qingchan's spirit."

Li Youyi said: "I am sure she definitely did not die in my hands. I don't admit things I haven't done."

"Wait a minute."

Cang Li said: "Can you tell me first who Yang Qingchan is? Who exactly died?"

"Yang Qingchan is Yang Qingxi's sister, and the two look exactly the same, hard to distinguish from each other. I only found out about this today. The Sui Sect must have hidden quite a bit of power!" Li Ling said.

Cang Li looked deeply at Li Youyi: "How Yang Qingchan died is no longer important! What is important is that your edge was too sharp seven days ago, and someone is pushing you to the forefront step by step."

Li Youyi showed a thoughtful expression, and suddenly felt a sense, looking outside the door: "Tang Wanqiu is here!"
