Chapter 24 Killing and killing people!
"Miss Mu, why...why did you come to receive him specially?"
"He... isn't he a handyman or a temporary worker for the Mu family?"
"Impossible, absolutely impossible!"
"This loser, when did he get to know Miss Mu? And he let Miss Mu be so friendly to him!"
"Why does he do that? How dare he?"
A series of thoughts exploded in Zhou Yun'e and Hu Youquan's minds, and both of them looked incredulous, as if they had seen a ghost.
If it weren't for their remaining rationality restraining the two of them, they would have screamed out loud.
But they couldn't figure out no matter how hard they tried. Why did Xiao Changqing, a casual cultivator from the lowest level who lived in a shanty town and was in the early stage of Qi Refining, deserve Miss Mu's special treatment?
It looked like he was a guest of honor in the Mu family!
"What, the fourth level of Qi Refining?"
"How long has it been? More than half a year, less than a year, and you have gone from the second level of Qi training to the fourth level of Qi training?"
"Are you kidding me?"
After hearing the conversation between the two people, Zhou Yun'e couldn't even hold back her cold and arrogant personality.
She chose to abandon Xiao Changqing and follow Hu Youquan, a local second-generation cultivator, and lived in a real cave. She could eat spiritual rice for every meal, and occasionally take some lower-level elixirs to improve her cultivation.
But even so, she had just broken through to the third level of Qi Refining not long ago.
She now has no idea when she will be able to break through to the middle stage of Qi Refining.
Even if the conditions Hu Youquan provides for her now are maintained, it will take at least three to five years, or even more than ten years!
Her current Taoist partner, Hu Youquan, also has low-grade spiritual roots. He has lived in such conditions since childhood, and is only at the fourth level of Qi Refining now!
Xiao Changqing has similar spiritual roots to them, so why... has he made such rapid progress?
Could it be that Xiao Changqing has been hooking up with some big shot in the past six months?
The conditions for cultivation far exceed those of Hu Youquan and her!
Otherwise it doesn't make sense!
"The cultivation has improved so rapidly that the eldest lady of the Mu family treats me differently..."
"Xiao Changqing, who are you hanging out with?"
In addition to disbelief, shock and anger, Hu Youquan also quickly captured the crisis of the day!
Xiao Changqing, who was once considered a waste in his eyes, has now turned over a new leaf. His cultivation has broken through to the fourth level of Qi training, which is equal to his. He is also hooking up with a figure like the eldest daughter of the Mu family.
If he wants revenge, I'll be doomed!
He is not afraid of Xiao Changqing's breakthrough to the fourth level of Qi Refining. After all, he has the same level of cultivation and has a deeper foundation. He has various means of protecting himself, and his overall strength is definitely stronger than Xiao Changqing.
But what if the eldest daughter of the Mu family helps?
It is entirely possible!
After all, there is hatred between the two of them over someone’s wife being stolen from him!
Hu Youquan was praying in his heart, hoping that Xiao Changqing didn't see him.
He regretted very much that he should not have come to the Mu family to attend the birthday party today!
Zhou Yun'e's face also turned pale, and the cold and arrogant demeanor she usually maintained was completely broken.
"Fellow Daoist Xiao, are those two your friends? I see you have been looking at them. If you know them, let's go over and say hello." Mu Chunfeng pointed at the two people.
Xiao Changqing smiled and said, "It seems that Miss Mu has investigated my affairs very clearly."
Of course, he had already discovered Hu Youquan and Zhou Yun'e.
The moment Mu Chunfeng arrived, he understood the other party's purpose today and what he wanted to do.
Mu Chunfeng also smiled. It seemed that Xiao Changqing already understood what she meant.
Since everyone is smart, there is no need to beat around the bush. He said, "For cultivators of our generation, the most important thing is to have clear thoughts. If the thoughts are not clear, the cultivation will be affected. Fellow Daoist Xiao, do you want revenge today? If you want revenge, you can do whatever you want with these two people tonight."
"That's not necessary." Xiao Changqing shook his head.
Mu Chunfeng was stunned for a moment, a hint of disappointment appearing in his eyes.
Xiao Changqing, is he such a magnanimous person? He can even let go of the hatred of having his wife stolen and the hatred of life and death?
Such a person may be a good person, but he will definitely not go far in the world of cultivation.
At this time, Mu Chunfeng also began to think that he had misjudged the person and made the wrong investment.
Perhaps the recent rumors about Lingfu Pavilion are not groundless, and the elders are right to want to change investors.
"Fellow Daoist Xiao, are you sure?" Mu Chunfeng asked.
Xiao Changqing knew what the other party was thinking, and asked back: "Miss Mu, do you think that I will be able to get my revenge after I borrow your help tonight?"
"Uh..." Mu Chunfeng had never thought about this question.
She just had good intentions and wanted Xiao Changqing to take revenge and vent his anger. Once her thoughts came to her mind, her talisman skills might be able to reach a higher level.
"I appreciate Miss Mu's kindness today, and I'll keep it in mind. But if I have to rely on others' help for revenge, it would be too boring to rely on the power of others to bully others." If Xiao Changqing had just traveled to this world, and a family like the Mu family stood up to help him, he would have hugged them tightly without hesitation and stepped hard on the couple.
But now he has a golden finger and his future is almost visibly bright, so why should he seek revenge through others?
If Hu Youquan and Zhou Yun'e were to take revenge tonight, they might be afraid and horrified, but they would probably still feel unconvinced in their hearts and would think that he was just lucky to have climbed up the high branch of the Mu family.
So sometimes, revenge also requires a 'sincere conviction'!
"In the future, there will be a time when these two people will slowly regret and feel terrified... Revenge is easy, killing is simple, but it is satisfying to destroy someone's heart." Xiao Changqing said earnestly.
Ok?
Mu Chunfeng blinked.
She seemed to have completely misunderstood and had never figured out what kind of person Xiao Changqing was... "I thought you were a gentle and easy-going person..." Mu Chunfeng joked with a smile.
Xiao Changqing chuckled and said, "I am an honest man."
"I believe you." Mu Chunfeng nodded.
……
……
Xiao Changqing and Mu Chunfeng were chatting and laughing, and it was obvious at first glance that their relationship was unusual, not just ordinary acquaintances.
He did not go directly towards Hu Youquan and Zhou Yun'e, but made the two of them suffer a lot, restless, and the fear in their hearts grew.
Mu Chunfeng was secretly paying attention to the two people out of the corner of his eyes. After seeing the expressions on their faces, he understood Xiao Changqing's words "Killing is easy, but destroying the heart is satisfying" a little more.
Tsk tsk.
What a great Xiao Changqing.
But in that case, she would have to change her strategy tonight.
At this time.
Hu Youquan finally couldn't stand the inner torment any more, and no longer expected to gain anything tonight. He regarded the gift as free and prepared to pull Zhou Yun'e away quickly.
Seeing this, Mu Chunfeng hurried forward, stopped the two, and said to Zhou Yun'e with a half-smile: "Female cultivator, you actually abandoned Xiao Daoyou, who is a talisman master of the Lingfu Pavilion and has cultivated from the second level to the fourth level of Qi Refining in less than a year, and chose this cultivator Hu? What kind of vision is this?"
Zhou Yun'e trembled all over when she heard this, as if struck by lightning. There was shock, confusion, fear, and finally a trace of regret in her eyes. She looked at Xiao Changqing who was also walking slowly towards her and asked, "You, really became a talisman master of the Lingfu Pavilion?"
Xiao Changqing didn't answer, Mu Chunfeng nodded and responded on his behalf: "Of course it's true. Although he is still a basic talisman master, he is favored by the owner of the Lingfu Pavilion and the second-level talisman master Lu Fu who has left Nanshanfang. Master Lu Fu also gave Xiao Daoyou a gift! Otherwise, why would Xiao Daoyou become a guest of honor in my Mu family?"
The talisman master of Lingfu Pavilion is also favored by the shopkeeper and Lu Qiu, the second-level talisman master who caused a sensation in the entire Nanshanfang?
This……
When Zhou Yun'e and Hu Youquan heard this, they felt as if it was worse than death!
You are still a gigolo, or you are just lucky, or you just got a sudden success! How can you really have a bright future?
Seeing the two people's uncertain expressions, Mu Chunfeng nodded with satisfaction and deliberately said: "Friend Xiao, the most taboo for cultivators of our generation is to have unclear thoughts. Otherwise, at the least, it will be difficult to improve our cultivation, and at the worst, we will be haunted by demons. Someone is blind and can't see the talent in you. She chooses to leave you. It's her own bad luck, and outsiders can't do anything about it. But someone once bullied you because of your low cultivation and weak strength, and attacked you recklessly. Now that you have the strength, you should take revenge and fight back. It's reasonable..."
Killing people, destroying their hearts...
Ok.
Mu Chunfeng began to understand what Xiao Changqing meant.
Although Xiao Changqing did not plan to take revenge tonight, it was okay to destroy someone's heart.
"Xiao...Xiao Changqing, what do you want to do? Don't do anything rash!" Hu Youquan was trembling a little. He was really scared.
He was not stupid, and he came to his senses at this moment. It was obvious that the eldest lady of the Mu family had set up a trap today, and wanted to use him to vent her anger on Xiao Changqing!
Otherwise, with his cultivation level and status, it would be impossible for him to be invited to the Mu family’s birthday banquet.
It's ridiculous that he was so excited about this that he prepared expensive gifts, hoping to get close to the Mu family.
Damn Xiao Changqing! Damn the Mu family too!
Hu Youquan roared in his heart.
His body was shaking uncontrollably. The Mu family's attempt to kill him was no different from stepping on an ant.
"Xiao... Fellow Daoist Xiao, there was a misunderstanding about what happened back then. Please listen to my explanation..." Hu Youquan pulled Zhou Yun'e's arm hard and winked at her frantically, indicating that she should beg for mercy, hoping that Xiao Changqing would show mercy today because of their past relationship of more than ten years.
Zhou Yun'e showed a bleak smile on her face.
In addition to the shock in her heart, she also began to inevitably feel regret, but even more so, she felt a spreading resentment!
Why are you turning things around now? I have been with you for more than ten years! I have endured poverty for more than ten years!
Why didn't you show your talent earlier? Otherwise, why would I leave you?
You should always be as poor and destitute as you were in the past, living in a shanty town with no hope in life!
Xiao Changqing, you let me down!
You are sorry for me!
I hate you!
Zhou Yun'e was so tormented and distressed that she wanted to go crazy.
But she couldn't say any words to beg for mercy, apologize, or make amends.
Because she knew that it didn't make much sense to say these words now. Xiao Changqing was unlikely to forgive her.
It would be better to be decisive and retain your dignity.
"Xiao Changqing, if you want revenge, just do it. I won't beg you!" Zhou Yun'e closed her eyes, looking as if she was ready to kill or chop him up.
"Zhou Yun'e, you...I..." Hu Youquan was extremely anxious, but he couldn't say the undignified words of begging for mercy to Xiao Changqing. It was even more painful than killing him.
Even if Xiao Changqing became the basic talisman master of Lingfu Pavilion, even if his cultivation reached the fourth level of Qi Refining, it was not worth him begging for mercy!
What's more, this was a low-level cultivator whom he once looked down upon!
So he turned to look at Mu Chunfeng, and pleaded in a trembling voice: "Miss Mu, we are here today to celebrate your birthday and give you gifts. You can't do this to us, otherwise how will Nanshanfang look at the Mu family in the future..."
"Do you think you can threaten the reputation of my Mu family?" Mu Chunfeng said disdainfully.
"Yes, yes, yes..." Hu Youquan was sweating profusely.
Mu Chunfeng snorted coldly: "But today is a happy day, and Master Xiao Fu is in a good mood, and he doesn't want to be ruined by you. Hurry up and get out of here, and go back and behave yourself!"
Although the words were extremely insulting, Hu Youquan did not care about his dignity at this time. He quickly pulled Zhou Yun'e away as if he had been pardoned.
