Li Qingshan could not help but frown. He had known that crazy woman for many years, but he had never developed a shred of closeness or even familiarity with her. There was only deep disgust.
He had always wanted to find an opportunity to kill her, but she had never given him a reason to do so. Instead, she had cooperated with him many times, lending him a hand at crucial moments.
It was the same right now.
He had to find her in this colossal demonic capital, even if the tremendous number of demonfolk had muddled his fate.
He could not help but slow down. Relying on his lingering sense of existence, he moved between the tall buildings.
The streets were empty, with very few pedestrians. They maintained their distance cautiously.
Li Qingshan found this strange. In the past, demonfolk had mostly been on the battlefield, but now, they seemed no different from regular people. Even their demon qi had been assimilated by the demonic capital, so there was nothing special about them.
He crushed a puddle of water as the rainbows swayed and splashed. He walked alone in the cold, rainy night. Suddenly, he felt rather melancholic.
He had not felt this way for many years already. He could not help but ponder it carefully. He thought back to the Elysium, the passionate square, and the revellers. It was so blissful that it was like a dream.
Now that he had woken up from the dream, people walked alone. They were cold and wary of one another.
The contrast was far too great. He could not help but prick up his ears, wanting to hear some sounds. He widened his eyes in an attempt to find something.
As a result, he heard countless moans, curses, and sobs lurking in the depths of the forest. Every window had a tragedy.
"This damned place!"
Suddenly, he heard a woman's cries for help, as well as the cruel laughter and excited gasps of a few men nearby.
He was rather impatient. Just Now, it had only been a short while, and he had already heard enough of this crap. It was enough to numb even the most righteous person, and he was not even some righteous person.
However, he seemed to hear something again, so he made a few turns and stopped at the entrance of a dirty alleyway.
In the depths of the alleyway, a few demonfolk turned around. They all seemed very young. The oldest was only in his teens, while the youngest seemed like a child. However, his face was filled with rudeness as he brandished a dagger.
"Piss off! There's no place for you here! "
Li Qingshan did not move at all. He closed his eyes. Strangely, after taking a detour, he felt that he was getting closer to Qian Rongzhi.
The demonfolk were immediately completely infuriated. They surrounded him with a mess of weapons. "Blow up his head! I want to eat his liver! "
Li Qingshan opened his eyes and activated his Earth Force Field.
With a plop, a few demonfolk collapsed from their own weight, reduced to a pile of minced meat.
He stood still and closed his eyes again, continuing to search for new clues.
In the depths of the alleyway, a woman walked out shakily. She was as young as the demonfolk, pretty and petite. She was also just a young girl.
She came in front of Li Qingshan, and with a 'rip' sound, she actually tore off all the torn clothes on her body, and said flatteringly, "Sir, how do you want to play?"
"I'm not playing." Li Qingshan felt a little helpless.
The girl's expression changed. She turned around and fumbled for a few pieces of crushed silver from the pile of meat. She also took off her earrings and jewelry, knelt down and raised her hands, offering them to Li Qingshan.
"Don't!" Li Qingshan became even more impatient.
The girl screamed and staggered backwards. "No, don't kill me! I beg you! "
"Why would I kill you?" Li Qingshan had no idea how to react.
"Then … why?"
The girl was stunned. In her mind, since it was not for lust, nor was it for wealth, he could only be killing for fun.
"Because I'm a good person." Li Qingshan shook his head. He sorted through the clues and continued on his way.
The girl was stunned. Only after quite a while did she return to her senses. She chased after him out of the alleyway and asked loudly at his back, "What's your name?"
"Lei Feng."
Li Qingshan vanished into the night without even looking back. He felt slightly better for some reason.
However, before long, he saw the girl again. Beside her was a large group of people, all dressed in the same black uniform. Some wielded sticks of water and fire, while others carried chains. Every single one of them was fierce-looking and harbored ill intentions.
The girl pointed at Li Qingshan excitedly. "Sir Demon General, it's him! He's that Lei Feng! He didn't ask for any benefits, yet he still says he's a good person! "
Li Qingshan was stunned. His face darkened. This girl called the police! Or the city management? Who cares! Demonfolk will always be demonfolk!
"Very bad, little bitch. You've done a great service by reporting him. You'll be heavily rewarded! We won't let a good person go, nor will we wrongly accuse a bad person. "The Demon General sneered and waved his hand." Take him down! This kid must be from the Ming Cult! "
Pfft! The ground was turned into mush, including the Demon General.
The girl screamed and collapsed on the ground. In her mind, the Demon General was already an undefeatable expert, yet he ended up the same as those hooligans. Just what kind of monster was he?
Li Qingshan walked over step by step. She collapsed on the ground again. She couldn't even beg for mercy. She could only close her eyes and wait for death.
However, the footsteps passed by her. He said, "If there's a next time, I'll kill both of you."
It was exactly because he heard the weak heartbeat that he chose to take action. Now, he could not help but laugh at himself. He had only saved a vile spawn. The child of a demonfolk was obviously still a demonfolk. Compared to being born in a damned place like this, he was better off not being born.
Though, what the hell was the Ming Cult?
The girl was dumbfounded. She only returned to her senses after quite a while. She rubbed her slightly bulging belly with both hands. She had no idea what this man called "Lei Feng" was thinking at all.
The child in her belly was the child of a Demon General. It had taken her quite a lot of effort. It could be sold for a great price in the nursery. She resisted desperately because she was afraid of ruining this deal. Otherwise, playing around with those hooligans was nothing.
Anyway, there must be some great scheme behind all this!
Li Qingshan circled around the city a few times. He did not strike again, nor did he find Qian Rongzhi.
Every time he felt like he was very close to her, he would suddenly miss.
Her location was erratic, sometimes to the east, sometimes to the west. If she was not constantly moving, then some power was messing with fate, obscuring her location.
He could not help but find this strange. He was a human immortal after all, and he possessed the perfect bloodline of a spirit turtle. Just how did this woman manage to do it?
At this moment, he felt an aura rapidly approach him. Raising his head, he saw a thin figure fly down from the top of the building. He carried a blade on his back and was masked in black clothes, with a ball of fire embroidered on his chest. He landed before him gently and silently, clasping his hands sternly. "May I ask for your name, sir?"
"Li Qingshan."
A gleam of light flashed through the man's eyes. He became even more courteous. "Our cult master requests your presence!"
"The Ming Cult?" Li Qingshan's expression was rather strange.
"That's right." The man in black was filled with pride. He could not help but puff out his chest too. He pulled off his mask. "I am one of the four great Guardian Kings of the Ming Cult, the Green-Winged Bat King. I've come to invite you under the cult master's orders, sir."
The corner of Li Qingshan's eye twitched. He confirmed some of his guesses. That damned woman was actually bold enough to plagiarize his novel. Yep, even though he had copied it.
And, the Green-Winged Bat King before him did not seem like a demonfolk at all. His expression was also very sunken, but he did not give off any perverse or evil aura. Instead, he gave off a heroic and stirring aura.
How strange! It was strange no matter how he thought about it. Had that crazy woman changed? No, that was impossible!
"Hmm, you're the cult master?"
"The Radiant King."
