Chapter 810 I want to collect three immortal tablets to suppress her (part 2)
Qi Huang’s spiritual sense could cover the entire cultivation world, and she naturally saw every move that the Lu family made. “I’ve already given you a chance. Since you insist on choosing the path of death, then I can only fulfill your wish.”
Qi Huang’s lips curved slightly, and then she excitedly shared this news with Cheng Hong Ling.
“Three immortal tablets?”
Cheng Hong Ling’s expression changed, and she looked at Qi Huang with a scrutinizing gaze. “So what? Why are you so excited? Those are three immortal tablets, not three mooncakes. Are you sure you can swallow them?”
“Wife, don’t worry. The immortal tablets only contain the residual power left by the immortals, not the real suppression of spiritual sense. Let alone three, even if all the immortal tablets in the cultivation world were added together, I wouldn’t care,” Qi Huang said calmly to appease her.
Cheng Hong Ling breathed a sigh of relief, then frowned again. “That being said, you can’t be careless. I really can’t understand why you released the two hostages. Are you also infected with the humanitarianism of those women from Shuiyu Valley? If Lü Yi and his son were still in our hands, would the Lu family dare to resist?”
“Hehe, I want the Lu family to resist,” Qi Huang’s lips curved slightly.
“What do you mean?” Cheng Hong Ling became even more confused.
“Think about it. If Lü Yi and his son were still in our hands, then the Lu family would not dare to oppose us, and might even surrender. What should I do when I attack their home then? Kill them mercilessly? Impossible, because doing so would invite criticism. If I don’t kill them, then I would be letting down the disciples of Shuiyu Valley who have died,” Qi Huang explained slowly.
Cheng Hong Ling frowned. This was indeed a problem.
“Conversely, if I let them go back, the Lu family will definitely be furious when they see their injuries, and then they will go all the way, and I will have a more legitimate reason to kill them,” Qi Huang said with a wink.
“So you released them to have a legitimate reason to kill them?” Cheng Hong Ling was stunned, then questioned, “Then isn’t this a waste of effort? Why did you capture them in the first place?”
“First, when we destroyed the Immortal Alliance, there were so many sisters from Shuiyu Valley present, and tens of millions of onlookers. If I, the Grand Elder, let them leave, wouldn’t I lose all my face? Second, capturing them not only allowed the sisters of Shuiyu Valley to vent their anger, but also allowed us to demand a large amount of compensation. Why not?” Qi Huang stated her reasons.
“For you, the first point is the most important, right?” Cheng Hong Ling pierced through without mercy.
“It’s my wife who understands me the best!” Qi Huang leaned over and kissed Cheng Hong Ling’s tender and pretty face fiercely. Then she said, “But my wife, you should also understand that since I am the Grand Elder of Shuiyu Valley, I have to find ways to earn some prestige. Otherwise, how can this position be stable?”
“Hehe, you are a person who cares about face even if you are not the Grand Elder of Shuiyu Valley!” Cheng Hong Ling smiled noncommittally, then reached out to wipe away the saliva on her face. She then said, “Let’s do this according to your wishes, but before that, we still have another important matter to deal with.”
“What matter?” Qi Huang asked curiously.
“Since we have established the Dao Alliance, we have taken on all the responsibilities of the Dao Alliance. The heaviest burden among them is the Evergreen Convention, which is held once every three years, because the growth of Immortal Seeds determines the future of the cultivation world. Time is approaching day by day, what about the rewards? Are you thinking of paying out of your own pocket?” Cheng Hong Ling reminded her.
“Pay out of my own pocket? I’m not a saint!” Qi Huang shook her head repeatedly.
“If that’s the case, don’t you want to find a way to control the Tencel Valley Treasure Land? The news of the destruction of the Dao Alliance should not have reached there yet. Once the guards hear this news, who knows how chaotic it will become, and the most worrying thing among them is that Colossal Vine,” Cheng Hong Ling said worriedly.
“Indeed, that guy is Lu Lin’s pet. Once it learns of its master’s death, it will definitely want to find its master,” Qi Huang stroked her smooth chin, then said, “It seems it’s time for us to go to the Tencel Valley Treasure Land.”
“One more thing. For our Dao Alliance to gain a foothold, we must ensure the safety of the people in the cultivation world. The biggest obstacle to this is those terrifying Yin Energy root causes. Should we take some time to remove them all? I won’t play the ‘raising a蛊’ tactic like the Immortal Alliance for my own benefit,” Cheng Hong Ling continued to remind her.
“You don’t need to worry about this. The reason why these Yin Energy root causes have always existed is because the Immortal Alliance has been continuously irrigating them with heavenly water since ancient times. Now that the Immortal Alliance has been destroyed, and the Heaven-Concealing Water has been cut off, they will be eliminated by the Heavenly Tribulation before long, and the remaining small fries will not be a threat,” Qi Huang said with great certainty.
“Then what about Ancestor Jiang Feng, Yaoyao, and Zhen Feiyan? Have you thought about how to deal with them? As long as they are alive, the evil spirits under them will inevitably conflict with the common people. You can’t lock them up like prisoners, can you?” Cheng Hong Ling’s tone became serious.
“This is indeed a problem!” Qi Huang also frowned. After a moment, her beautiful eyes suddenly lit up. “I’ve got it, send them to other stars!”
“What?” Cheng Hong Ling even showed a look of astonishment.
“You heard correctly. With my current strength, I can already travel through the universe on a small scale. It’s not difficult to take them to other stars. Then, the vast starry sky will become an insurmountable barrier between the two sides, and everyone will live their own lives, peacefully coexisting,” Qi Huang became more and more excited as she spoke.
“It’s a good method, but other stars have harsh environments, and I don’t know if they are willing to go. Most importantly, there are no living creatures in those places, and low-level evil spirits can only survive by absorbing blood or souls. How will they survive when they go there?”
“This is not a problem. The environment can be modified. With our blood, it’s not difficult to grow plants on other stars. As for food, it’s even simpler. Let them bring some cattle and sheep to raise themselves. Whether they absorb blood or souls after growing up is up to them, just like killing pigs for New Year’s,” Qi Huang proposed solutions one by one.
“It’s indeed feasible,” Cheng Hong Ling agreed after a brief thought.
“Then it’s decided. I’ll test their tone in advance,” Qi Huang was eager to try now.
“Let’s do it. We need to control the Tencel Valley Treasure Land as soon as possible to avoid any further complications,” Cheng Hong Ling urged.
Qi Huang then took Cheng Hong Ling towards the Tencel Valley Treasure Land, but changed course to No Night City midway.
“Why are you going to No Night City?” Cheng Hong Ling asked doubtfully.
“Think about it. The news of the destruction of the Immortal Alliance has not yet reached the Tencel Valley Treasure Land. If the two strangers like us suddenly visit and announce that we are replacing the Immortal Alliance, won’t we be treated as lunatics? I need to find someone with a strong voice to announce this matter,” Qi Huang explained.
“That makes sense, but who are you looking for?” Cheng Hong Ling asked curiously.
“It’s Elder Kang, of course. This old guy is cowardly and afraid of death, and has no intention of restoring the Immortal Alliance, so I let him off the hook,” Qi Huang replied.
“Elder Kang? Is it the Elder Kang who went to Tencel Valley Treasure Land with us last time? I remember you let him go and told him to go back to the Immortal Alliance to report the news,” Cheng Hong Ling recalled.
“Who else could it be? Speaking of which, I’ve killed this guy once before. If it weren’t for my clone transferring the injuries, I’m afraid he would have gone to see his great-grandmother by now,” Qi Huang teased.
At this moment, Elder Kang was drinking in a restaurant in No Night City. Since the Immortal Alliance was destroyed, he had become an unemployed wanderer. At first, he planned to find a position in an Immortal Sect, but no one dared to accept him because of his identity, so he could only live idly every day. Of course, not being able to find work was a minor issue; the key was that his former colleagues were dying one after another, and he was tormented internally, fearing that it would be his turn one day. rnrn”Elder Kang seems to be quite leisurely, coming to the restaurant to pass the time in broad daylight.” Qi Huang and Cheng Hong Ling appeared before Elder Kang in an instant.
“I lost my job to others, so can’t I be leisurely?” Elder Kang replied drunkenly.
“Then are you interested in joining the Dao Alliance?” Qi Huang invited him.
“Dao Alliance?” Elder Kang was stunned for a moment, then he looked at Qi Huang and Cheng Hong Ling properly. “Am I seeing things?” Elder Kang rubbed his eyes hard, then trembled violently, and fell off his stool with a thud, begging piteously, “Alliance Leader, spare my life! Alliance Leader, spare my life! I haven’t done anything to betray the Dao Alliance!”
“I know, that’s why you’re still alive, aren’t you?” Qi Huang calmly sat down, then elegantly crossed her legs, and asked again, “Did you hear what I just said? Are you interested in joining the Dao Alliance?”
“Yes, yes, of course, yes! Thank you, Alliance Leader, for your appreciation!” Elder Kang burst into tears and kowtowed desperately, because he knew that as long as he joined the Dao Alliance, he would no longer have to live in fear.
“Very good. In that case, you will be the Alliance Leader of the Dao Alliance from now on, and accompany me to Tencel Valley Treasure Land!” Qi Huang ordered concisely.
“Yes!” Elder Kang quickly stood up.
At this moment, Lü Dao had already arrived at Supreme Peak. The immortal tablet of this sect was his first target.
