Chapter 158 The Difference Between Seeking Death and Wanting to Die
Although Li Qingqing knew that Zhu Yao was deliberately targeting her, she didn't say anything and cooperated silently.
What she was thinking about was how to complete her task.
The area assigned to the leader of Fenglei Sect was right next to hers, so when the two met, the leader of Fenglei Sect took the initiative to greet her.
"Master Lingqin, thank you so much for your last visit to the Jun family. I brought Wufeng back to the sect for testing and discovered that the child was born with a lightning spirit body and is extremely talented. If it weren't for your words, I would have missed out on such a talented disciple..."
Li Qingqing smiled slightly and said softly, "You're welcome! Do you know anything about that child's situation?"
The Fenglei Sect leader knew what she was talking about and nodded. "I know. Every family has its own problems, and that girl hasn't had it easy either. She's suffered a lot since she was a child. I'm more curious about how you figured that out."
Li Qingqing smiled mysteriously, "It can be considered a talent!"
The Fenglei Sect's headmaster immediately understood. "No wonder I heard last time that you helped Lingchu Peak Master recruit quite a few talented disciples. It seems that next year's Xizhou disciple recruitment election will also require Lingqin Peak Master to help. Come visit my Fenglei Sect then..."
Facing the invitation from the Fenglei Sect's leader, Li Qingqing did not refuse outright, "If I have time then, I will definitely go."
The two chatted for a while and soon separated with their disciples.
Li Qingqing arrived at the mass grave north of the sword tomb and began searching diligently.
She walked in the middle, with Yao Han, Lu Tingbai and Ye Bei on both sides.
When passing by a sewage pool, a foul smell hit my nose.
Li Qingqing took a closer look and found the rotten corpse of a ferocious beast lying in the sewage pool, surrounded by many mutated flies and insects.
If it were an ordinary person, he would just walk past.
But Li Qingqing's footsteps suddenly paused.
Because she suddenly heard a subtle but angry roar.
[I've been screwed up. I've been framed by that hypocritical Fu Changye. I enjoy killing people, but I'm not stupid. How could I possibly offend dozens of sects across the entire Hualing Jiuzhou at once?... When I get out, I'm going to kill them all. I want every disciple of the Jiuling Sect to be wiped out!]
When Li Qingqing heard this, her mind changed and she began to express her feelings to Yao Han on her left.
"Although everyone has listened to the advice of the Palace Master Qingyin and the united major sects are searching for the Killing Emperor inch by inch, I always feel that the Killing Emperor would not be so foolish as to offend dozens of sects in Hualing Jiuzhou at once. Hey! I clearly didn't want to come."
Yao Han hadn't been able to hear his inner voice recently, so when he heard his master say this, he sighed, "I actually feel the same way. If I were the Killing Emperor, I wouldn't kill people in Yuhua Continent today, kill people in Jiuling Continent a few days later, or even kill people in Dongzhou. Isn't that just courting death? It's like he's afraid that others won't come and kill him."
Li Qingqing nodded in agreement, "Yes! I've met the Killing Emperor once before. I felt that although he was a bit murderous, he wasn't actually so disgusting as to bully the female disciples of Qingyin Palace and then brutally kill them. There's a difference between wanting to die and seeking death."
At this time, Ye Bei walked over from the left and whispered, "Master, that Qingyin Palace Master deliberately assigned us to this mass grave to look for someone. She's clearly targeting us at Lingqin Peak. It was clearly her disciple who died, but she chose the most comfortable job, guarding the entrance to the sword tomb."
Li Qingqing continued to sigh, "If the Emperor hadn't really been killing people indiscriminately, I wouldn't have wanted to kill him at all. Compared to the Emperor, I think there are people who deserve to die more than him!"
The Killing Emperor, who was hiding in the corpse of the giant ferocious beast, changed his expression several times when he heard what Li Qingqing and her apprentice said.
In fact, he was a little surprised that Li Qingqing didn't want to kill him!
But after thinking about it again, he suddenly realized the reason.
It seems that the person that little girl wants to kill more is Fu Changye!
If the occasion wasn't right, he would have wanted to go out and discuss with that girl how to deal with Fu Changye.
After calming down, the Killing Emperor continued to lie dormant.
Li Qingqing looked around the beast's corpse for a few seconds, then turned and left.
After walking a few steps, she said to her apprentice, "The Spiritual Doctor Peak Master has a substitute puppet! I wonder if the Killing Emperor has one. If I want to hide in the sword tomb, I will hide in the corpse of this ferocious beast."
The motionless Killer Emperor: ":..."
What else did he not understand until now? Li Qingqing had actually discovered that he was hiding in the corpse of the ferocious beast.
But she pretended not to notice.
Hearing the sound of Li Qingqing and her apprentice walking away, Sha Huang breathed a sigh of relief.
However, he has always been a cautious person. Even if Li Qingqing has no intention of killing him, he can no longer hide in this place.
When Li Qingqing took her apprentice to the northernmost corner of the mass grave, the Killing Emperor turned into a wisp of black smoke and crawled out from the corpse of the ferocious beast.
He glanced in the direction of Li Qingqing and the others and left quickly.
But at this moment, Li Qingqing's aura suddenly surged, and the spiritual energy around her suddenly gathered towards her.
When Yao Han, Lu Tingbai and Ye Bei looked over, they all showed expressions of shock and surprise.
Master...seems to be about to make a breakthrough!
Li Qingqing looked at their expressions and spoke at the right moment: "You guys go stand guard over there! I've suddenly had an epiphany, I'm about to break through!"
"Yes, Master."
The three of them responded at the same time, and then quickly took up three different positions.
In order to make the noise louder, Li Qingqing even used dozens of spirit gathering talismans, and used her mental power to form a formation, gathering all the spiritual energy coming from all around into the formation.
The noise on her side was so loud that the first person to come over to check was the leader of the Fenglei Sect who was nearby.
Soon after, more and more people came this way.
When they found out that the master of Lingqin Peak was about to be promoted, everyone looked at each other in shock.
Someone walked up to Ye Bei and asked quietly, "Why did your master suddenly advance?"
"Did you suddenly come across some kind of divine treasure?" someone interrupted.
Everyone who heard the question held their breath, waiting to hear the answer.
Ye Bei frowned and spoke slowly, "There's no such thing as a heavenly treasure. My master was just talking to us when he suddenly had an epiphany. It was an epiphany, not some heavenly treasure."
Some people don't believe it, "How can he suddenly have an epiphany while talking?"
"That's right. Even if we get some heavenly treasure, we won't steal it..."
Although Lu Tingbai couldn't see, he was always heading in the direction where his master was standing.
Hearing these people's discussions, he turned his head with a cold expression, "My master was just discussing with us the motives of the Emperor's murder. Why did he provoke dozens of sects in Hualing Jiuzhou at the same time, make enemies with so many people, and seek his own death. Seeking death and wanting to die are two different states. My master pondered for a while and suddenly had an epiphany."
"Seeking death and wanting to die are two different states?" someone murmured to himself.
Some people were confused. "What two different states? What's there to think about? What's the epiphany?"
But some people suddenly pondered, "That makes some sense! Killing the Emperor doesn't make sense to offend so many sects at once. Provoking one here today and causing trouble there tomorrow is like deliberately courting death..."
The Fenglei Sect's leader said, "The Emperor of Killing isn't the type to seek death, let alone want to die. Is it possible that the Emperor of Killing has also been framed?"
