Chapter 124 Simps Never Get a Good Death
The banquet proceeded as scheduled, with toasts flowing and celestial music filling the air. However, between you and Crown Prince Li Xuance, an invisible killing intent, like two drawn swords, surged wildly amidst the bustling and noisy atmosphere.
If it weren't for the fact that this is the birthday banquet of the Zhao family patriarch, with a True Person of the Purple Mansion in charge, you two would probably have already lost your temper and started a bloody battle.
The air itself seemed to be torn apart by these two chilling killing intents, sending shivers down the spines of some of the more perceptive guests nearby, who instinctively moved away from the area.
Finally, Li Xuance gave you a deep look, snorted coldly, turned around, and left in a throng of followers.
You, along with Li Xuanwei, Han Feiyu, and others, found a relatively quiet corner with a good view and sat down. Maids served you fine wines, rare fruits, and delicacies, and you raised your cups to drink together.
During this time, many young disciples from the other six sects, either out of curiosity or a desire to make friends, came to chat with you.
Among them were even the same people who had ambushed you outside the tomb of Master You. Facing you now, their expressions were quite unnatural, a mixture of embarrassment and fear, a far cry from their former arrogance.
You simply dealt with them casually and didn't make a big deal out of it.
You also noticed that Zhao Mengxi was moving around the banquet, her eyes scanning the crowd from time to time, with a hint of anxiety that was not easily detected. She was obviously looking for Fang Yuan.
Unfortunately, you have now reverted to your original form as Li Qingyi, and she has searched everywhere in vain. During this time, Ling'er found you and happily sat down beside you.
[After several rounds of drinks, as the atmosphere reached its peak, several familiar figures came into view: Qin Ruoxi, Chu Feiyang, and Ren Ziyu, the gentle and refined man you had met briefly on Qingxin Peak.]
Chu Feiyang spotted you immediately, and his expression instantly turned extremely ugly. The crushing defeat and humiliation on Qingxin Peak had clearly been a thorn in his side.
Enemies meeting are bound to be filled with hatred, and he couldn't contain himself, striking you with a palm. The force of the blow was fierce, a furious attack that disregarded the occasion.
】
However, things are different now. He, who has reached the fifth level of Qi Refining, is like a toddler learning to walk in front of you, who have already reached the ninth level of Qi Refining.
Without even getting up, you subdued him on the spot by raising your left hand.
[In the end, it was Ren Ziyu who intervened, and you let him go. After Chu Feiyang left, Ren Ziyu immediately joined you for a drink.]
The banquet ended smoothly. Qin Xiyue, Han Feiyu, Jiang Yixi and you were arranged to stay near Fang Yuan's courtyard. You know, this was Zhao Wuyi's intention.
You lot, relying on Qin Xiyue's formation, began loudly plotting your scheme.
[Jiang Yixi tells you that her father, Jiang Yanxu, is already on his way to the Zhao family, and he has arranged for another elder from his sect and the sect leaders of the other five sects to go to the Zhengyang Immortal Sect together.]
[Last time at the Qin family, you learned from Han Feiyu that the leader of the Sanyi Sect went to the Qingchi Immortal Sect to sabotage their plans.]
Otherwise, you would have had a hard time getting Qin Xiyue out of there, which makes me curious about this sect leader.
[After midnight, you hear a clear and deep voice coming from outside the Zhao family's gate: "Jiang Yanxu, the sect leader of the Sanyi Sect, has come to the Zhao family to offer birthday wishes."]
Not long after, Jiang Yanxu arrived at the courtyard where you all were staying.
Jiang Yanxu has a dignified and elegant demeanor, quite like a sect leader. You all should immediately pay your respects.
Jiang Yanxu's gaze fell on you, and he then uttered several "good"s, marveling that you truly deserve to be a Golden Core disciple; in just a few months, you're almost at the Foundation Establishment stage.
With Jiang Yanxu's arrival, Zhao Wuyi and Zhao Jingci unconsciously appeared. The atmosphere was quite tense with three Purple Mansion experts gathered in the courtyard at the same time.
When Zhao Wuyi saw Jiang Yanxu talking to you, he assumed that Jiang Yanxu was an ally you had invited, and immediately stood on the same side as him.
Sensing the tense atmosphere, Zhao Jingci said to Zhao Wuyi, "You are hastening the demise of the Zhao family."
So you decided—
First, please have Zhao Wuyi and Jiang Yanxu, both from the Purple Mansion, capture Zhao Jingci.
Second, observe the situation calmly.
Li Qingyi's eyes narrowed, and she sneered, "Li Xuance, I've been waiting for this day for a long time!"
Faced with option one, Li Qingyi could find almost no reason to refuse.
In the simulation, Jiang Yanxu was clearly on his side, and Zhao Wuyi was also temporarily allied with him due to their shared interests.
With two Purple Mansions joining forces, the success rate of capturing Zhao Jingci is extremely high.
If successful, it would not only remove the crown prince's biggest henchman in the Zhao family, but also greatly weaken the royal family's schemes, clearing obstacles for its next actions.
As for waiting and seeing? What a joke!
This simulation was designed to be proactive, gather information, and test the limits! The more aggressive we are, the more truth we may uncover.
"It's just a simulation, let's go all out!" A ruthless glint flashed in Li Qingyi's eyes. "I choose one!"
You immediately spoke up, requesting Zhao Wuyi and Jiang Yanxu to capture Zhao Jingci.
As for the reason, you will explain it to them both afterwards. Upon hearing this, Zhao Jingci immediately prepared to leave.
Zhao Wuyi had long been fed up with Zhao Jingci's actions. Now that you had pleaded for help, and with the Sect Master of the Three Ones Sect present, he had no more reservations and was the first to act. With a wave of his sleeve, he sealed off the surrounding space.
Although Jiang Yanxu did not know the specific details, he believed in your identity as a true disciple of the Golden Core.
Seeing that Zhao Wuyi had already made his move, he no longer hesitated, and a blazing sun rose, directly approaching Zhao Jingci.
The two Purple Mansion True Persons, one a long-standing ancestor familiar with Zhao Jingci's techniques and the other a contemporary hero, displayed perfect teamwork from the very first move.
Instantly, all of Zhao Jingci's escape routes were blocked, forcing him to fight head-on. The battle was then elevated to the high heavens above the Zhao family's ancestral land.
Clearly, none of them wanted the aftershocks of a battle at the Purple Mansion level to affect the Zhao family's foundation below.
Looking up, you see that in the high sky, spiritual light bursts forth like the sun exploding, various strange phenomena crisscross, and various illusory images of Dharma appear faintly, while the roar of the Great Dao resounds through the clouds.
Even across such a vast distance, the wisps of oppressive power and the chaotic spiritual energy emanating from it still sent shivers down your spine. You deeply felt the chasm-like gap between a Purple Mansion True Person and a Qi Refining Cultivator at the Tenth Stage.
[You tell everyone to stay where they are, and immediately activate your divine senses to search the entire Zhao family compound for Li Xuance. Today, we must extract some secrets from him.]
Soon, you found Li Xuance. Unaware that Zhao Jingci had been restrained, he remained arrogant towards you.
You don't give him a chance to use his foundation card. In the blink of an eye, you've crippled his limbs, rendering him unable to move.
His eyes first showed confusion, then extreme terror. He, a mid-stage Qi Refining cultivator, was like a child before you, a ninth-level Qi Refining cultivator.
You immediately switch to Judge mode by expounding the true teachings.
In that instant, all sense of morality vanished from your heart, leaving only endless coldness. Li Xuance was startled by your sudden change and asked what you were doing.
You asked Li Xuance why he felt such intense killing intent towards you. Instead of answering, he laughed and said that you were nothing but a pathetic worm.
You were too lazy to waste words with him and instead resorted to extreme torture. As a prince, he had never experienced such pain before. He immediately screamed in agony.
As Li Xuance's screams continued, you could feel the battle intensifying high above, accompanied by Zhao Jingci's roars. You knew Zhao Jingci was desperate.
To prevent Li Xuance from dying prematurely due to severe injuries and causing the clues to be cut off, you thoughtfully took out a Nine-Turn Rejuvenation Pill, pried open his mouth, and stuffed it into his mouth.
The elixir was incredibly effective; his mangled wounds began to heal rapidly, and his broken limbs began to reconnect.
However, just as a glimmer of hope appeared in his eyes, you struck again, breaking his newly healed limbs once more, and continued your previous work.
Screams, pleas for mercy, and curses echoed endlessly. Your heart grew cold; tonight you had to know the answer, you had to know what kind of pawn you were in the hands of the royal family.
[Shortly afterward, a powerful aura descended, abruptly halting your movements. At this moment, Zhao Jingci also succumbed, captured by the combined forces of Zhao Wuyi and Jiang Yanxu.]
Upon seeing that the person who arrived was Li Changqing, you felt a sense of foreboding. Li Changqing glanced at you and was immediately filled with shock and anger.
But what surprises you is that he didn't attack you directly, but instead rescued Li Xuance and treated his injuries.
You silently realized how important you might be to the royal family. At the same time, your heart grew increasingly heavy; didn't this mean their schemes against you were far-reaching?
When Zhao Jingci saw that Li Xuance was injured beyond recognition, his eyes widened in fury, and he vowed to skin him alive and tear him apart.
You sighed inwardly, "The power of a simp is truly astonishing, enough to move even the gods and spirits to tears."
[Zhao Jingci, who had been captured, suddenly surged in power, startling you. This unexpected turn of events caught the other three Purple Mansion cultivators off guard.]
No one expected that he would burn his Purple Mansion Dao Source to forcibly elevate his strength. All this was to kill you, to avenge Li Xuance.
Because of the close proximity, the other three were unable to stop you in time, and you were crushed into heroic fragments by the overwhelming pressure of the Purple Mansion.
[You're dead. Rewards are being calculated.]
"Damn it! Those simps deserve to die a horrible death!!!"
Li Qingyi covered his head, sighing repeatedly, his face full of helplessness. He had to admit that he had underestimated the sycophant.
"Can he even be human?! What makes him think he can reach the Purple Mansion realm? With that kind of mentality, what makes him worthy of reaching the Purple Mansion realm?!"
Compared to Li Xuance, Li Qingyi currently hates Zhao Jingci more. He has lost count of how many times Zhao Jingci has killed him.
Li Qingyi wasn't afraid of death, but he couldn't accept being killed by the ultimate simp.
After exhaling several breaths of stale air, Li Qingyi gradually calmed down.
"Fortunately, we obtained quite a bit of information this time. At least it proved his identity as a Golden Core disciple, which is very useful in the eyes of normal people. It's just a pity that we didn't have time to pry Li Xuance's mouth open."
Whether it was Zhao Wuyi or Jiang Yanxu, their attitudes made Li Qingyi realize just how valuable this identity was.
"First, go to Luomei Residence to find Zhao Mengxi and agree to go to the Zhao family with her. Then go to the Imperial City to find Xiyue and make sure that I can arrest the evil cultivator from Zhenyang Tower in Xuan Ce City in three days."
Having made up her mind, Li Qingyi transformed into a streak of light and headed towards Luomei Residence.
