Li Qingshan could not help but furrow his brows. Despite knowing that mad woman for all these years, he never developed any sense of attachment or even familiarity. There was only deep disgust.
He had been constantly in search of an opportunity to kill her, but she never gave him the reason to do so. Instead, she worked with him multiple times, lending him a hand when he needed it.
Just like now.
He needed to find her in this colossal demon city, even with a tremendous number of demonfolk stirring up fate.
He was forced to slow down, following the vague feeling as he moved between the skyscrapers.
The streets were mostly empty, and the few pedestrians maintained their distance from one another cautiously.
Li Qingshan found this quite strange. In the past, all the demonfolk he had seen were on the battlefield, yet now, they seemed no different from regular people. Even the demon qi they gave off assimilated with the demon city, such that they seemed nothing special.
He stepped through a puddle, and the neon lights flickered. He made his way through the cold rainy night alone, suddenly feeling rather bleak.
It had already been many years since he felt that emotion, so he could not help but contemplate it closely. He thought of Sukhāvatī, that enthusiastic square, and the joyful people. They were so happy that it seemed like a dream.
Now that they had woken up from the dream, the people walked alone with indifference, guarding against one another.
This kind of contrast was far too great. He could not help but listen closely, wanting to hear something. He widened his eyes as he tried to search for certain scenes.
As a result, he heard countless moans, curses, and sobs, lurking in the depths of this concrete jungle. A tragedy unfolded in every window.
“This damned place!”
Suddenly, he heard the wails and cries of help of a woman, as well as the cruel laughter and excited breathing of a few men. It was nearby.
His patience was running low. In just this short while, he had already heard enough of these shitty incidents, enough to leave even the most righteous of people numb. However, he was no righteous person.
However, he seemed to hear something else, so with a few turns, he stopped at the entrance of a dirty little alleyway.
In the alleyway, a few demonfolk looked back at him. They were all very young, where the oldest was only in his teens, while the youngest seemed like half a child. However, their faces were twisted with malice, brandishing daggers.
“Piss off! There’s none of your business here!”
Li Qingshan did not budge, and he shut his eyes. That was strange. Despite taking a detour, he felt closer to Qian Rongzhi now.
The demonfolk were immediately infuriated, gathering around him with all sorts of weapons. “Beat his head in! I want to eat his liver!”
Li Qingshan opened his eyes and used the Force Field of the Earth.
With a splat, the demonfolk collapsed from the weights of their own bodies, reduced to piles of flesh.
He stood there without moving, closing his eyes again in search of new leads.
In the depths of the alleyway, a trembling woman walked over. She was as young as the other demonfolk, pretty in appearance and small, only a girl.
She arrived before Li Qingshan. With a rip, she actually tore off all the clothes on her, sucking up to him. “Sir, how would you like to play?”
“I don’t want to play.” Li Qingshan felt a little powerless.
The girl’s expression changed, turning around and fumbling around in the piles of flesh behind her, gathering a few flattened pieces of silver. She took off her own jewelry as well, kneeling down with her hands raised, offering them all to Li Qingshan.
“I don’t want them!” Li Qingshan became even more impatient.
The woman began to scream, backing away. “No, don’t kill me! I beg you!”
“Why would I kill you?” Li Qingshan had no idea how to respond.
“Then… why?”
The girl was taken aback. In her imaginations, since he was not here for sex or wealth, then there was only taking pleasure in killing others.
“Because I’m a good person.” Li Qingshan shook his head. He combed through the leads and continued onwards.
The girl was stunned. It took her quite a while before she recovered, rushing out of the alleyway and yelling towards his back, “What’s your name?”
“Lei Feng.”
TL: Lei Feng is supposed to be a soldier in the People’s Liberation Army in China, who is widely used in propaganda as a model citizen.
Li Qingshan vanished into the night without looking back, but he felt a little happier for some reason.
This novel is available on Hosted Novel.
But before long, he saw the girl again. There was a great group of people around her too, dressed in the same, black uniform. Some of them wielded poles, while others carried chains. They were a fierce-looking bunch, filled with malice.
The girl pointed towards Li Qingshan excitedly. “Sir Demon General, that’s him. He’s that Lei Feng! He didn’t rape me, nor did he rob me. He didn’t want anything at all! He even said he was a good person!”
Li Qingshan was taken aback. His face sank. This woman had snitched on him to the police! Or maybe the urban enforcement, but whatever! Demonfolk would always be demonfolk!
“Very evil of you, little bitch. You’ve done well by reporting to the authorities. You will be rewarded! We will neither spare a single good person, nor wrongly accuse a single bad person.” The Demon General smiled viciously and waved his hand. “Capture him! This kid definitely belongs to the Ming cult!”
Splat! The ground was littered with flesh once more, including the Demon General.
The girl screamed and collapsed on the ground. In her understanding, Demon Generals were already undefeatably powerful, yet he had ended up suffering the same fate as those scoundrels. Just what kind of a monster was he?
Li Qingshan walked over step by step. She sat on the ground and did not even bother to beg for mercy, just awaiting death with her eyes shut.
However, the sound of the footsteps passed by her. Li Qingshan left behind a threat. “If this happens again, I’ll show you how I take two lives with a single corpse.”
It was exactly because he heard the weak heartbeat that he chose to do something about it, but now, he could not help but smile in self-deprecation. All he had saved was a vile spawn. The children of demonfolk would obviously still be demonfolk. Compared to being born in this damned place, they were better off not being born at all.
Though, what the hell was the Ming cult?
The girl was dumbfounded, only returning to her senses after quite a good while. She touched her slightly bulging belly, completely unable to understand what that man called Lei Feng was thinking.
The child in her belly was the seed of a Demon General. It had taken her quite a lot of effort, and it would be able to fetch a great price in the Infant Nurturing hall. She was afraid of ruining this deal, which was why she resisted so desperately. Otherwise, having some fun with some scoundrels was absolutely nothing.
In short, there must have been some kind of great scheme at work!
Li Qingshan strolled through the city a few times. He did not interfere with anything more, nor did he find Qian Rongzhi.
Whenever he felt he was very close to her, it would always suddenly fall through.
Her location drifted about constantly, sometimes to the east, sometimes to the west. If she was not constantly moving, then there was something stirring up fate that obscured her location.
He could not help but become puzzled. He was a Human Immortal after all, and he had the complete bloodline of a spirit turtle, so just how did this woman achieve that?
At this exact moment, he felt an aura rapidly approach him. Looking up, a thin figure flew down from a building. He carried a blade on his back, dressed in black with his face covered. There was a ball of fire sewn on his chest. He landed silently before Li Qingshan, clasped his hand sternly, and asked, “May I ask for your name, sir?”
“Li Qingshan.”
The man in black’s eyes twinkled, and he became even more polite. “Our cult leader sends her invitations!”
“The Ming cult?” Li Qingshan’s expression became rather strange.
“Exactly.” The man in black was filled with pride. He could not help but hold his chest a little higher. He removed his mask. “I am one of the four guardian kings, the Green-winged Bat King. I have come under the orders of the cult leader to receive you.”
The corner of Li Qingshan’s eyes twitched, and he confirmed his suspicions. That bastard of a woman had actually plagiarised from his novel, even if he had plagiarised it too.
TL: This is the same novel he wrote in the school of Novels like 1000 chapters ago. It’s based on The Heaven Sword and Dragon Saber by Louis Cha. Here is the page for the Ming cult.
On top of that, the Green-winged Bat King’s behaviour did not resemble a demonfolk’s. His face was very sunken, but there was no sense of malice or wickedness. Instead, there was a sense of fervency and solemnity.
How strange! He found it strange no matter how he thought about it. Had that mad woman changed? No, that was impossible!
“Yep. Your cult leader is?”
“The King of Light.”
Immediately, the Green-winged Bat King’s eyes became filled with reverence, as well as light.
