Chapter 161: Underworld Intrigue and Shattered Legacies

Underworld: Ogre and Ma Mian?

Underworld… Cat Face?!

Several officers of the Temple Guardian Division exchanged astonished glances at the news.

Ogre and Ma Mian… They were well aware of them!

Yet this was the first time anyone learned the true origins of Ogre and Ma Mian!

“Underworld?”

They exchanged puzzled looks, their eyes filled with bewilderment. How had they never heard of an Underworld force before?

Though obscure and little known, it was not to be underestimated.

After all, the names Ogre and Ma Mian were legendary in Jingguang City—no one dared to take them lightly.

Li Qingshan gazed coolly at the officers of the Temple Guardian Division, his hunched posture and clasped hands betraying the calm assurance beneath his Cat Face mask.

He had arrived too late.

He was just too late—the heated moment had passed.

But it didn’t matter; one always had to at least get a taste of participation.

Moreover, his decision to announce the name ‘Underworld’ was deliberate—he had already asked Li Che if they should publicize it.

Li Che had replied, ‘Let things take their course.’

Li Qingshan immediately understood; a natural, low-key promotion was best.

Isn’t it just…

Isn’t this time exceptionally natural?

Even though Cat Face Li Qingshan hadn’t acted yet, lending his name meant that he was indeed part of this mop-up operation.

With a faint smile, the space between heaven and earth soon rang out with the voice of the Cat Face Elder, echoing far and wide.

The officers of the Temple Guardian Division glanced around and discovered that the Cat Face Elder had vanished.

They exchanged frowns and, without delving further into what the Underworld force might be, moved on.

Cautiously, they advanced into Xinyuan Temple to investigate.

Once inside Xinyuan Temple…

Three officers bristled with alarm; a heavy, acrid scent mingled with turbulent divine energy that made one feel nauseated.

For those less skilled, the divine energy could twist into chaos and even inflict harm.

This was the lingering divine radiation following the explosive detonation of the Guanyin Lotus Bullet.

Xinyuan Temple lay in ruins, with most of its buildings collapsed.

As the officers pressed on with their investigation, their faces grew grim.

“Corpse God Sect!”

Inside Xinyuan Temple, scores of sinister members of the Corpse God Sect were discovered!

Many outsiders, driven out of Jingguang City by the relentless ‘Qingxiu Niu Ma’ duo, had hidden here in the sect’s stronghold.

But unexpectedly, Ogre and Ma Mian had tracked them down and swept them up in one fell swoop!

This matter was far from simple.

The officers quickened their pace, combing through the half-ruined temple at breakneck speed.

One after another, they uncovered bodies blasted into a sieve-like state.

“Cursed Copper Corpse!”

“It’s the current abbot of Xinyuan Temple, Abbot Xuan Li! He’s… been smashed to pulp.”

“How ruthless! Truly befitting the vengeful spirit of Ogre!”

……

The name Ogre was long known among the elite of the Temple Guardian Division.

Only now did they truly feel Ogre’s brutal ferocity and deep-seated hatred toward the Corpse God Sect.

“Leader, come take a look!”

One officer, his face marred by discontent, ran over.

The team leader grabbed his saber at the call, with the other officers following closely.

They caught sight of the courtyard.

Inside, bodies were piled high, a withered monk obstructed the entrance, and a Zhong Kui statue lay shattered in two.

They could almost piece together the carnage that had unfolded here.

The monks had exhausted themselves trying to contain the raging spirits, desperate to prevent the dead from turning into vengeful ghosts and losing their chance at rebirth.

The officers sighed deeply.

“The evildoers of the Corpse God Sect… they truly deserve their fate!”

“Ogre and Ma Mian… real heroes indeed!”

The team leader declared solemnly.

“Leader, there’s also a Cat Face.”

……

……

Raging winds roared as heavy snow swirled about.

The flames at Xinyuan Temple gradually began to die down.

Li Che, wearing a bamboo hat and a Cute Cow Mask, stood atop a large tree, cloaked entirely in a black robe that flapped in the winter storm.

Beneath his mask, his eyes mirrored the diminishing glow of the dying temple fire.

He sighed softly.

Master Fazhong wasn’t left unrescued by Li Che’s inaction—there was simply no saving him now.

Everything had been exhausted, burned away completely…

The survivors clung to life by a mere breath.

When Li Che killed Xuan Li and shattered the Thousand Soul Banner—a technique for nurturing ghosts—Master Fazhong’s mind cleared and he departed life without regret.

He was truly a master worthy of respect.

He had sacrificed his own life to uphold the fading legacy of Qi Tian Temple’s Dao, preserving its former glory.

After all, Xinyuan Temple was one of the three legacies passed down from Qi Tian Temple.

Fa Kong had maintained the little dignity that remained in Xinyuan Temple.

Li Che gazed somberly as the Cosmic Chessboard unfurled once more, centering itself on his own presence to envelop the entire temple.

Only after ensuring every last evildoer of the Corpse God Sect was dead did he vanish the Cosmic Chessboard, disappearing like a gentle breeze into the icy wasteland.

When his form reappeared…

He had returned to the workshop courtyard in Luohua Alley of Jingguang Mansion.

Heavy snow fell from the sky.

Amidst the falling snow, Li Che had, this time, truly given his all—successfully slaying a Silver Guts Cursed Copper Corpse.

He also killed a Sevenfold Corpse God Envoy.

Though it was only a lower-level Sevenfold Envoy, it affirmed that Li Che’s combat prowess had reached the perfected Grandmaster level.

Without resorting to Tower Ascension or using the Temple Spirit Divine Chess Piece, even facing an exalted Grandmaster could be fatal.

Reviewing and recapping the battle.

With his heart pounding, Li Che mused that this was his most straightforward fight—aside from Ma Mian’s Barrett sniper shot.

For the rest of the battle, from Ogre’s opening strike to the ensuing carnage, it was a head-on clash of raw power!

“Not bad.”

Li Che was quite pleased with the fight.

Yet satisfaction aside, he refused to become complacent—every flaw would be reviewed to learn from his mistakes.

This battle had been somewhat tougher compared to his fight with Wen Longshan.

Wen Longshan’s physical strength paled next to that of the Silver Guts Cursed Copper Corpse!

A spark of inspiration stirred within him.

Glimmers danced before his eyes.

【Dao Fruit: Dragon Elephant Vajra (Lv3 97%)】

This battle raised his maturity by 7%.

It wasn’t much, but it was significant nonetheless.

After his massive maturity surge from defeating Wen Longshan, the Silver Guts Cursed Copper Corpse—whose overall strength nearly matched Wen Longshan’s—added roughly a 5% boost, with an extra 2% from eliminating the remaining Corpse God Sect rogues in Xinyuan Temple.

Approximately a 5% increase overall, the extra 2% came from clearing out the dissenters within Xinyuan Temple.

“Almost there.”

A smile tugged at Li Che’s lips; he hadn’t planned for this round to immediately trigger a transformation.

After all, just 3% more maturity would be enough to ascend.

If he were determined, Li Che could even force a boost by transferring divine energy from the 【Pure Heart】 Dao Fruit.

However, the vast divine essence required to push a Lv3 Dragon Elephant Vajra Dao Fruit further meant that, for now, he refrained.

His gut told him that his battles would naturally boost the Dao Fruit’s maturity over time.

There was no need to rush the process.

For now, Li Che chose not to force a transformation; he eagerly anticipated the next battle.

Sitting cross-legged in the courtyard, his formidable aura evaporated the surrounding snow.

Inside, his 【Painted Immortal】 clones diligently continued their cultivation.

The entire courtyard was eerily silent.

Li Che sat upright, beginning to tally his spoils.

He had slain every rogue of the Corpse God Sect hiding in Xinyuan Temple—each sealed evildoer was dispatched with a Muduya.

In total, he collected 97 Divine Perception Divine Chess Pieces and 862 Divine Foundation Divine Essences…

This greatly bolstered the potential yield for crafting Guanyin Lotus Bullets.

Using his Divine Perception, he tore into Xuan Li’s Qian Kun Jade and began cataloging the rewards.

Notably, Abbot Xuan Li’s inner reserves were formidable for the new head of Xinyuan Temple.

Much richer than the Sevenfold Corpse God Envoy ambushed by Li Che’s patient trap!

Two Sevenfold Divine Crystals, ten Eight Extremity Divine Essence Crystals, and 32 Jiuyue Divine Crystals!

They were abundant!

Li Che was overwhelmed by the bounty.

Especially when there were two Sevenfold Divine Crystals!

He speculated that Xinyuan Temple’s own legacy had likely been absorbed by Xuan Li—and when added together, it made sense.

He wasn’t surprised to find no high-level divine weapons; as a dwindling force, Jingguang Mansion couldn’t hold top-tier arms.

Having amassed numerous divine arms from Jiuyue and Shidu, Li Che planned to one day sell them on the black market for Divine Crystals—a far more practical exchange.

The same logic applied to Divine Essence Techniques and similar arts.

Li Che perused the legacy collection of Xuan Li and Xinyuan Temple.

Suddenly, his eyes lit up.

With a swift grab, he snatched a manual inscribed on myth-beast parchment right into his hand.

The manual radiated an intense, exalted brilliance.

The ultimate martial technique ‘Hun Yuan Qi Tian Gun’!

Boom——!

In an instant, Li Che’s inner fire ignited the entire courtyard, evaporating the drifting snowflakes and sending surges of energy upward with a sizzling roar!

Raging winds roared as swirling gusts intertwined.

Soon, calm gradually returned.

Li Che’s eyes blazed like twin infernos!

Whew——

“The ultimate martial technique?”

Li Che’s voice trembled with incredulity.

To be deemed a Martial Sage in the realm of Qi and Blood, one had to surpass even the Grandmasters!

That was the pinnacle of the Qi and Blood path.

Qi Tian Temple’s legacy?

Li Che’s eyes lit up, but he quickly reined in his emotions, sensing something was amiss.

Because if Xinyuan Temple truly inherited Qi Tian Temple’s legacy, it would have been impossible to preserve.

This martial art was undoubtedly flawed.

Li Che quietly scrutinized the text.

After a moment, he closed the parchment-bound book.

“A deficient Martial Sage technique…”

“Only one-third remains, much like the incomplete Qi Tian legacy—it’s just one-third.”

This Martial Sage technique was divided into three parts, and only a fragment had been preserved.

No wonder Xinyuan Temple managed to hold on.

Its incomplete state made it incredibly difficult to master—even risking one’s own ruin!

Though its status in martial arts was unquestionably high, its incomplete form made both entry and advancement nearly impossible.

Indeed, many had attempted this Qi Tian Staff technique over the centuries at Xinyuan Temple—and even among the noble families of Jingguang City.

Yet only a handful ever managed to take that first step, and only barely.

Most couldn’t even begin.

The notorious difficulty of starting explained why only the incomplete Martial Sage technique remained at Xinyuan Temple.

It was as worthless and stubborn as a slab of outhouse stone.

Even though it proudly carried the Martial Sage title,

if no one could master it, then what good was it but trash?

“Incomplete…”

Li Che’s eyes sparkled.

“It doesn’t matter… everything will merge into my Myriad Transformations of Dragon Elephant Vajra. Flaws or not, it’s all good.”

Li Che chuckled.

His Myriad Transformations of Dragon Elephant Vajra absorbed every style—imperfect ones included.

Hard to begin?

With his Dragon Elephant Vajra Dao Fruit, no initiation was too tough for Li Che!

He examined it with delight—this was by far his greatest acquisition yet!

The Martial Sage technique, even in its incomplete form, was a treasure.

If mastered to the grandmaster level, its recorded might could rival elite techniques!

Grandmaster…

A shadow fell over Li Che’s heart; even if he activated Tower Ascension, facing a Grandmaster might still be daunting.

Would the Golden Heavenly King Ascending Stance be enough to withstand a Grandmaster?

But that stance came with its own flaw—it wasn’t enduring.

Furthermore, he couldn’t yet fully harness a Golden Heavenly King Divine Chess Piece.

Had he been able to channel an entire Heavenly King Chess Piece, his power would rival that of a Grandmaster.

But currently, per ascension he could only muster half a piece.

“Perhaps when I refine my body to the Grandmaster after-realm and bolster my physical strength, I can eventually harness a full Golden Heavenly King Divine Chess Piece.”

Li Che pondered deeply.

Calculating the gap between himself and a Grandmaster, anxiety surged like a tidal wave.

Training!

Li Che couldn’t afford to rest.

Right then, he began practicing the incomplete Martial Sage technique ‘Hun Yuan Qi Tian Gun’!

……

……

The next day.

Xinyuan Temple had undergone a dramatic change—news had spread that it was annihilated by Ogre!

The news swept through Jingguang City like a sudden spring breeze overnight!

Underworld’s Ogre, Ma Mian and… Cat Face.

The announcement was like tossing a boulder into a turbulent lake, instantly creating a huge uproar!

It was also the first time the name ‘Underworld’ had spread throughout Jingguang City.

The Qin Family—the patriarch, Qin Di Kun—had emerged.

Listening to his subordinates, his expression turned stern: “An Underworld faction… unheard of, yet it boasts the cunning talents of Ogre and Ma Mian.”

“Ogre appears like a ghost with brutal methods, while Ma Mian can capture souls from afar… They are not to be trifled with.”

“Investigate thoroughly—find out what this Underworld really is!”

And it wasn’t just the Qin Family.

The Hai, Gong, and Gongyang families were equally shaken, dispatching people to probe the Underworld’s secrets.

Furthermore, the four remaining major sects of Jingguang Mansion were the most rattled.

Originally five, but with Xinyuan Temple wiped out, only four remained.

Jin Lie Men, Bamboo Academy, Guanchao Pavilion, and Scorpion Forest were all deeply frightened.

After all, Xinyuan Temple wasn’t weak—in fact, after allying with the Corpse God Sect, its abbot Xuan Li had reached the level of a Silver Guts Cursed Copper Corpse.

In terms of power, Xinyuan Temple might even be superior.

After all, these noble families only had the Patriarch of Divine Appearance guarding them, with hardly any at an advanced Divine Vision stage.

But the Silver Guts Cursed Copper Corpse bridged perfected Divine Vision with the advanced Yuan phase—a force to be reckoned with.

Such formidable opponents were slain by Ogre!

Unbeknownst to many, Ogre’s menace had already become enough to intimidate every faction.

Yet, it was limited to the local forces of Jingguang Mansion.

Even so, amidst the fear, they managed a slight sigh of relief.

For another stronghold of the Corpse God Sect had been eliminated, lessening the threat somewhat.

Though everyone knew the Corpse God Sect likely had other bases, each removal meant their power in Jingguang City was reduced.

City Lord’s Residence.

The Little Prince listened to a report from his Black Armor subordinates, his eyebrows shooting up.

“Underworld…”

“I’ve never heard of such an entity. Compared to the Hunting God Pavilion, it’s a minor local force—not worth worrying about.”

“But this Underworld Ogre, who specifically targets the evildoers of the Corpse God Sect, is rather intriguing.”

“A local force, yes, but Ogre’s methods are fascinating—killing with clever traps?”

“Isn’t Wen Longshan dead by his hand?”

The Little Prince lightly tapped his fingers on the desk.

Though only five years old, he was already imitating King Ping Luan and Ji Mo Li, tapping in a way that commanded respect without words.

Beside him, Su Huai Li nodded with a calm expression.

Wen Longshan’s death had long pained him.

What was meant to be a flawless counter-hunt plan—using Wen Longshan as bait—had gone awry when the bait was consumed…

That meant his counter-hunting scheme had utterly failed, turning into a farce.

“Senior Su, do you really want to kill this Ogre?” The Little Prince teased, glancing at Su Huai Li’s expression.

Su Huai Li smiled and replied, “Of course I want to, but Ogre isn’t an easy target. His methods are bizarre, ghostlike, and he wields a unique shifting technique.”

“And Ma Mian can snipe targets from dozens of miles away, leaving no trace.”

“They killed Colonel Wen Longshan. I am burning with vengeance—I must eliminate them swiftly.”

“But Little Prince, your main goal in Jingguang City is to secure the legacy of the Third Prince’s Bizarre Temple. Don’t get sidetracked.”

“Everything hinges on the Temple Spirit Resonance!”

Su Huai Li stated earnestly.

The Little Prince pursed his lips in thought.

“Thank you for your guidance, Senior. I understand.”

Su Huai Li’s expression softened considerably.

“Ogre, Ma Mian, and the like are not worth your extra energy. We’ll handle them once the Temple Spirit legacy is secured.”

Little Prince Ji Haihui nodded gravely.

……

……

After five tumultuous days, Jingguang City gradually settled into calm.

Inside the courtyard.

Steaming heat and fierce, dragon-like gusts roared incessantly.

Every fiber of Li Che’s body felt as if fused with steel, with raw power erupting from his muscles and bones.

The wooden stick in his grip suddenly cracked and exploded, shattering falling snow into countless dust clouds!

In an instant, countless stick silhouettes intertwined, materializing in his hands!

Crack…

The stick splintered into endless fragments.

Every pore on Li Che’s body seemed to exude scalding steam as if spurting out in bursts.

His furnace-like physique gave him an unparalleled edge in mastering the Hun Yuan Qi Tian Gun.

“Truly worthy of the Martial Sage title—even in incomplete form, it remains a top-tier Qi and Blood martial art!”

“After five grueling days, I’ve finally grasped the basics of this Martial Sage stick technique.”

Li Che’s body radiated intense heat, with sweat evaporating as the hot air distorted around him.

Gradually, his body cooled; donning his dark robe, he resembled forged steel brimming with explosive power.

“I’ve mastered the basics.”

Li Che smiled as a peculiar glimmer flickered in his eyes.

This stick technique was indeed impressive.

Its power was tremendous, and its method of cultivation uniquely innovative with distinctive striking techniques.

In raw martial might, it was nearly as potent as his Myriad Transformations of Dragon Elephant Vajra attack.

And that was just the beginning.

Once he reached master level, he might truly unleash a blow rivaling a Grandmaster’s might.

After a brief cleanup, Li Che sat cross-legged in the courtyard, took out a Sevenfold Divine Crystal, and began absorbing and refining it.

After about half an hour, his cultivation session concluded.

He let his 【Painted Immortal】 clones continue their practice.

Then, donning a clean dark robe, he braved the wind and snow as he left the courtyard.

He arrived at the Imperial Watch Tower by the cliff.

Brushing off the snow from his clothes, Li Che stepped into the tower.

Shangguan Qinghong, spotting Li Che, hurriedly put on his shoes and ran over.

“Bro Che!”

Shangguan Qinghong’s face was etched with anxiety.

Li Che replied with a gentle smile, “What’s wrong?”

“He’s here—the examiner from the Imperial Watch for your second-level Guest Official assessment.”

Shangguan Qinghong explained.

“And not just anyone from the state capital’s Imperial Watch—a Deputy Supervisor from Lingnan’s Qianyuan Daocheng Imperial Watch has come!”

After his words, a strange gleam appeared in Li Che’s eyes.

A Deputy Supervisor from Daocheng’s Imperial Watch?

This was a significant figure—one rung above Deputy Supervisor Lin Xiu.

After all, a deputy from Daocheng versus one from the capital were worlds apart.

It was like comparing a province to a city.

“Why would a Deputy Supervisor from Daocheng come to oversee the exam? I thought a state capital official from the Imperial Watch would suffice?”

Li Che looked puzzled.

The well-informed Shangguan Qinghong remarked gravely,

“Because… of the Third Prince’s Bizarre Temple’s Temple Spirit Resonance?”

“This Deputy Supervisor from the Imperial Watch even brought along a prodigy… and the Temple Guardian Division did the same.”

“This Temple Spirit Resonance is extremely important; the Chief Supervisor mentioned a potential legacy might emerge, so the Imperial Court is taking it seriously.”

“Thus, while the Divine Sect sent their prodigy, the Imperial Court is not one to be outdone.”

Shangguan Qinghong sighed, “XiXi’s competitive pressure… is growing stronger.”

“It’s getting intense—really intense…”

The thought alone made Shangguan Qinghong feel the weight of the pressure.

“Between Daocheng’s Imperial Court prodigy, King Ping Luan’s son Ji Mo Li, and the Divine Sect prodigy from Daocheng…”

“If it weren’t for XiXi emerging as a prodigy in Jingguang City this year—with only a few top-tier and elite prodigies around—they’d be thoroughly crushed.”

Li Che’s expression turned somber.

“Since you’re about to participate in the Temple Spirit Resonance, the Deputy Supervisor from Daocheng’s Imperial Watch will handle your exam as well.”

“This is not good news… The officials from Daocheng’s Imperial Watch have higher and stricter standards.”

Li Che raised his eyebrows.

He was about to ask for more details from Shangguan Qinghong.

Gong Yunli and Gongyang Liancheng had already come down together from upstairs and waved at Li Che.

“Master Li Che, you’ve arrived just in time. I was about to inform you that your second-level Guest Official exam is ready. Center yourself—it’s about to begin.”

Gongyang Liancheng smiled.

Gong Yunli clenched his fist and nodded heavily, his chest rising and falling.

“Ah Che, I’m counting on you!”

Gong Yunli said earnestly.

Li Che, as one of her subordinates, becoming a second-level Guest Official would enhance her reputation!

But her lovely brows soon drooped with worry.

“However, the examiner this time is Deputy Supervisor Lu Yao from Daocheng’s Imperial Watch… known for his strictness, and the exam itself is extremely challenging…”

“You might be in for a tough time.”

Even though Gong Yunli had high hopes for Li Che, she couldn’t help but feel anxious.

It wasn’t that she lacked faith in him,

but Li Che had only recently become a third-level Guest Official, and the second-level exam was notoriously difficult.

His chances of failure were high.

Gongyang Liancheng shared the same sentiment.

He doubted Li Che’s ability to advance, believing the young man needed more time to accumulate experience.

He shook his head slightly, knowing Li Che’s talent in wood carving had earned him a spot in the Imperial Watch upon Li Qingshan’s recommendation.

But talent alone wasn’t enough; the second-level exam relied heavily on experience and accumulation!

Yet Li Che cared little about that.

After all, his 【Xiangong】 Dao Fruit talent had advanced to Lv4, and his skills in wood carving had reached a new echelon.

“By the way, the exam will test your mastery of the Thousand-Hand Divine Eagle Technique—you need to reach at least the ‘great accomplishment’ level. The more adept you are, the better your chances… This is crucial.”

Li Che glanced at him and nodded with a smile.

“Alright, come with us upstairs.”

Gong Yunli led Li Che upstairs.

Shangguan Qinghong picked up a small stool, prepared some fruits and snacks, and quietly followed.

The Exam Room.

When Gong Yunli brought Li Che in, someone had already been waiting.

For once, the Supervisor had set aside his erhu and sat on a high official chair, conversing over tea with a figure clad in the Imperial Watch’s white robe.

Beside the white-robed figure, a young boy stood silently with his hands at his side.

As soon as Li Che entered, his gaze was involuntarily drawn to the young boy.

Hmm?

Li Che raised his eyebrows.

A concealed crossbow in his sleeve, and three loops of Thousand Spider Silk around his waist…

For a moment, Li Che almost mistook the sight for a younger version of himself.

Meanwhile,

the white-robed figure drinking tea with the Supervisor also fixed his gaze on Li Che.

Instantly.

Li Che felt a scorching surge of primordial spirit sweeping toward him.

……

……

Ornate carriage wheels crushed the snow, leaving two long tracks behind.

The carriage halted outside the white jade archway at the base of the Divine Sect Branch’s mountain gate.

Six black-armored knights riding demonic blood stallions pulled at their reins and dismounted.

The One-Armed Coachman leaped from the carriage.

From within, Little Prince Ji Haihui, clad in a fox cloak with a jade-like complexion and enchanting purple eyes, stepped down.

He looked up at the towering Jin Guang Peak, which pierced the sky like a spear, and smiled.

“Grandpa Dufu, let’s go.”

“Let’s go meet this prodigy of Jingguang Mansion. Father has instructed me to keep a close eye on our local prodigy—we must not take him lightly.”

Xue Dufu, wearing a bamboo hat and simple cloth attire with a dark hoe knife at his waist,

had his lone sleeve fluttering in the wind and snow.

“Alright.”

Thus, Xue Dufu adjusted his hat and, in his tattered shoes,

stepped forward.

and stepped onto the first bluestone step of the Divine Sect Mountain Gate!

The elderly guard at the mountain gate of the Divine Sect showed a slight change in expression.

Suddenly, a divine foundation appeared behind him; he grabbed a Red Tasselled Spear as if about to step out of the guardhouse.

However, the One-Armed Elder didn’t even glance at him.

Instead, he simply raised one finger and motioned downward.

Immediately, the divine energy behind the old man was drawn back into his body; his face flushed, he collapsed, veins bulging on his forehead as his fingers trembled uncontrollably while he remained immobilized.

The One-Armed Elder looked up, his gaze deep, and took another step.

In an instant, a terrifying aura surged like a mountain torrent!

It was as if the entire Divine Sect trembled from the impact.

“Son of King Ping Luan.”

“Little Prince Ji Haihui.”

“I have come to pay my respects!”

My daughter’s bronchitis worsened and she developed a fever; I had to run to the hospital. Update delayed—sorry, please support with monthly votes, recommendations, and follow the story. A new month is here, and Old Li will continue with explosive updates! Keep reading, everyone!
