Chapter 1170: In the Future, We Will Call Each Other Brothers (2)
Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
He was confident about this.
However, the people he had sent to do the work were useless.
Just when he had cast his gaze there, the array had been destroyed.
The others were even more useless.
As for going there himself…
That place clashed with his astrological sign, and he would not go there unless absolutely necessary.
But, if he wanted to condense his divine soul and fully descend, he needed the Heavenly Fragrance Dao Flower’s help.
Even though it hadn’t matured yet, it would still greatly benefit him.
The Heavenly Saint Sect had tried in vain. They had gained entry a few times into the sect, but it was not suitable to send them there once again.
He could only make use of whatever methods he had left.
But they had no effect.
Moreover, the Grand Thousand Divine Sect was eyeing him.
These people were quite bold.
They kept staring at his divine soul as if they could get something significant from it.
Did they really think he was so easy to catch?
But their methods were indeed effective.
“Elder, I don’t think it’s best to rush in. We should wait until the sect recruits new disciples. It will take some time, but it will definitely be easier to get in,” said the middle-aged man.
“How long will it take?” Li Qi asked.
The Great Era War was about to arrive. He had to welcome his main body before the Great Era War arrived.
Otherwise, he would lose even before he began.
“It depends on luck. It could take several decades or just a few years,” the middle-aged man said.
Li Qi thought for a while and finally said, “Go make the arrangements then.”
Having hope was better than having none at all.
That was the only option left.
“Oh, by the way, there is a group of disciples who need your guidance, Elder. They are some disciples who have just returned to the sect from a mission set by the inner sect,” said the middle-aged man.
“Alright.” Li Qi sighed.
He did not reject such tasks. The more people he taught, the more followers he would have. There would surely be someone among them who could bring him enough opportunities to reach the pinnacle of his power.
After sending the people away, he headed to where the disciples were.
He wanted to see if there was any good talent this time.
However, as soon as he walked into the cultivation field, he frowned.
He felt that something was wrong.
“Greetings, Elder Li.”
Just as he was about to investigate, a loud voice rang out.
Li Qi turned around.
There were a total of twelve disciples this time.
All of them looked rather ordinary. No one seemed to stand out.
“Since you all seem to know me, I won’t waste my time introducing myself. Today, I’ll talk to you about the methods of cultivation,” Li Qi said as he sat cross-legged at the highest seat and looked down at the people below. “Let’s start with cultivation issues.”
“Senior, how can I improve my Foundation Establishment Realm?” asked a woman.
“This is simple.” Li Qi began to explain.
There were many questions, and he answered them all.
He seemed to enjoy the process.
“Senior, what are the side effects of the soul occupying another person’s body?” asked someone else.
The sudden question surprised Li Qi. He then looked at the last disciple.
He had the appearance of a young man and was at the peak of the Soul Ascension Realm.
“What’s your name?” Li Qi asked.
“I recently changed my name to Smiling San Sheng,” the young man said.
“How old are you?” Li Qi’s eyes flickered when he heard that name.
“Forty-six.” Jiang Hao sighed.
“Forty-six and at the peak of the Soul Ascension Realm?” Li Qi chuckled. “I can’t teach someone like you. You can go. Take my token to another mountain peak. They’ll take you in.”
“Thank you, Senior. I just want to ask you… how can I find a good teacher like you?” the young man asked.
“Go to another mountain peak. They’ll answer you,” Li Qi said seriously.
“But, Senior, you’re one of a kind in Azure Mountain.” Smiling San Sheng did not leave.
“You don’t know when to stop, do you?” Li Qi said as his face darkened. “Once or twice is forgivable, but why bring it up a third time? Do you think I’m so easy to hara.s.s? Is there a grudge between us? When I descend, even the heavens and earth will celebrate for me. Why do you have to make things difficult for me?”
Hearing this, Jiang Hao chuckled.
He had used his previous ident.i.ty as Jiang Tian to enter the sect and find Li Qi.
He had waited here for Li Qi to begin his lectures on cultivation.
The Yin Yang Bracelet had already been set up, and the other party could not escape.
But he was quite surprised that Li Qi knew this was the third time.
The Yin Yang Bracelet had blocked him from communicating last time.
It was impossible for the news to get around.
It could only mean that the Holy Master’s divine soul was indeed extraordinary.
“Last time, you said that we were friends. Shouldn’t friends help each other out?” Jiang Hao asked with a smile.
“Help each other out?” Li Qi smiled. “You want my help?”
“Indeed.” Jiang Hao laughed.
“What do you want?” the Holy Master asked.
“I’m going to die soon.” Jiang Hao looked at the person in front of him. “I need the divine soul of the Holy Master to buy some time. The divine soul is the only thing that sustains my life. I can only ask a friend for such a sacrifice.”
No matter how Li Qi looked at it, the young man did not look like he was about to die soon.
“You want the divine soul of the Holy Master?” Li Qi asked.
Jiang Hao nodded.
“Then, take it.” Li Qi took out a Holy Master’s divine soul from his storage treasure. “Here.”
Jiang Hao was speechless.
Jiang Hao found it hard to believe as he accepted the divine soul. This was indeed the divine soul of the Holy Master.
It would cost one million spirit stones to digest it entirely.
“Do you have spirit stones too?” Jiang Hao asked.
“You! You go too far!” Li Qi was furious. Then, he took out a million spirit stones from his storage treasure. “This is all I have.”
Jiang Hao was in disbelief.
This person was truly a good friend.
He had given him his soul and spirit stones.
He even felt a little bad for Li Qi.
Thinking about it carefully, he indeed did not have any beef with the Holy Master.
He had only tried to protect Senior Sister Miao when the Holy Master had attacked.
But recently, the Holy Master had not made a move.
Of course, it would be better if he did.
He had long set up a net to trap him.
He was just waiting for him to jump in.
Unfortunately, the other party refused to go.
Jiang Hao quietly put the things away. “I acknowledge you as a friend. I’ll come to you if I have problems next time.”
Li Qi was speechless.
‘What a shame!’ He had never suffered such humiliation in his life.
Jiang Hao looked at the man in front of him and thought for a moment. “From today, let’s be brothers. You can call me Brother San Sheng, and I’ll call you Brother Li.”
Li Qi was at a loss for words.
His humiliation hit a new low.
The person in front of him was someone he wanted to kill, but he would have to wait for the right opportunity.
“I heard that you’re being targeted by the Great Thousand G.o.d Sect. Is that true?” Jiang Hao asked.
“It’s true. A group of people who know nothing about the divine soul want to capture my soul. In reality, they’re under my control. It’s not difficult for me to escape,” said Li Qi.
“The Great Thousand G.o.d Sect has gone overboard. I feel that I have to teach them a lesson. I’ll let your soul have a taste of it, Brother Li,” said Jiang Hao.
“Can I refuse the offer?” Li Qi asked.
How could he be oblivious to the fact that this person intended to use him?
Obviously, this person had conflicts with the Grand Thousand G.o.d Sect and wanted to use him to divert their attention.
“You and I are brothers. There’s no need to be so polite,” Jiang Hao said.
Li Qi was speechless.
“You don’t think brothers ought to help each other out?” Jiang Hao asked.
“A month,” said Li Qi. “In a month, some of the recently captured divine souls will escape, which will be enough to cause them trouble.”
“Alright. In the future, feel free to come to me if you need anything,” said Jiang Hao and laughed.
After that, he disappeared.
At the same time, the strange fluctuations that Li Qi had felt before disappeared.
As expected, he could not have escaped even if he wanted to.
The others seemed to have just woken up from a trance and had no idea what had happened.
Li Qi lowered his head in thought and decided to cooperate with Smiling San Sheng.
This person was dangerous, but he could cooperate with him.
…
That afternoon, on a mountain peak in the South, Hu Yuexin waited quietly.
She waited for the others from her sect to arrive.
They were going to the Heavenly Note Sect together.
Feng Hua was also by her side. This time, she planned to come along as well.
Hu Yuexin frowned.
“What’s wrong?” Feng Hua immediately asked.
“Smiling San Sheng said that a second gift is on the way. It will be delivered in a month,” said Hu Yuexin in a low voice.
Feng Hua was shocked. ‘Another gift? What’ll it be this time?’
They were worried.
But they thought it was impossible.
What else could he do to surprise them?
