Chapter 37: Unethical

The qi of the Daoist sect?

A spy?

Lu Li was shocked. He looked at Crimson Lord carefully, and a trace of surprise flashed in his eyes.

Crimson Lord also looked at him with a smile.

There seemed to be a hint of profound meaning in her smile.

In the next moment, Lu Li nodded slightly to express his gratitude. Then, he went back to Demonic Devil’s side. Without looking at anybody, he silently activated the Mystical Devouring Technique and devoured the qi of the sun that he had just refined.

“It’s done.”

At this moment, Demonic Devil said coldly, “The guests are almost here. Serve the dishes. Everyone can leave after finishing their meal.”

Prepare to eat!

At that moment, Bai Jinfei voiced out, “The guardian of the Scripture Depository has arrived!”

Then, a white-haired old man with a human skull necklace on his neck appeared.

It was the old man from the Scripture Depository!

Lu Li’s expression turned serious.

“Greetings, Guardian Elder!”

Upon seeing the white-haired old man appear in the hall, everyone in the hall, including Demonic Devil and Crimson Lord also stood up and bowed.

Obviously, this white-haired old man had a high status, and it was very likely that he was an Immortal stage cultivator.

“There’s no need to be too serious. Little Li, I thought highly of you back then. I didn’t expect you to advance to the Demigod stage so quickly. Congratulations! This magical treasure can be considered a gift for you!”

The white-haired old man’s voice was loud. With a flip of his large palm, a black pestle appeared in his palm.

In an instant, a ferocious aura spread out.

Even a demigod would be intimidated by the ferocious aura. It was only a magical treasure!

“Black Devil Pestle? Thank you, Guardian Elder!”

Upon seeing the Black Devil Pestle, Demonic Devil’s expression immediately became joyful, and he hurriedly cupped his hands to express his gratitude.

On the side, Hell Master, Flying Fox Monster, and Heavenshaker all revealed a trace of envy on their faces.

In the next moment, everyone invited Guardian Elder to sit on the upper right side of Crimson Lord.

The white-haired old man did not stand on ceremony and casually sat down beside Crimson Lord. Suddenly, he saw Lu Li, and he immediately exclaimed in surprise.

At the same time, he kept looking at Lu Li from top to bottom, and a strange golden light flashed in his eyes.

It was obvious that he had activated his magical eye.

Lu Li’s expression did not change. He cupped his hands and greeted Guardian Elder.

“Serve the dishes!” Demonic Devil shouted.

Demonic Devil received the Black Devil Pestle and returned to his white bone chair in a flash.

“Hold on!”

Flying Fox Monster, who was sitting on the upper left, interrupted all of a sudden.

“Eh? Flying Fox Monster, what are you trying to do? Ruin the show?”

Demonic Devil was displeased and asked with a frown.

“Hahahaha, Demonic Devil, this banquet of yours is too boring! There’s nothing in here! Not even a lady dancing! Just like this? What a waste of my gift!”

Flying Fox Monster said with malicious intent, and his gaze inadvertently swept past Lu Li.

It was coming!

Lu Li’s mind tensed up, and he snapped out of his daze.

“Bah! 10,000 middle-grade spirit stones, and you want to enjoy some shows? How about I revive your mother and let her dance in the hall?”

Demonic Devil scolded.

“You b*stard!”

Upon hearing this, Flying Fox Monster’s eyes opened wide, and his purple face instantly flushed red.

At this time, the Guardian Elder opened his mouth and said indifferently, “Flying Fox Monster, Little Li always has a foul mouth, and you know that. You can’t take advantage of him by bickering with him. If you want to do something, just say it.”

Hearing this, everyone also knew the purpose of his visit.

He was here to make sure things did not get out of hand.

Obviously, the sect also valued Demonic Devil very much. They did not want his banquet to be screwed up.

“Hmph!”

Flying Fox Monster snorted coldly and did not waste any more time. He uttered, “Demonic Devil, I heard that you’ve taken in a new true disciple, and he’s very arrogant. Coincidentally, I’ve also taken in a last disciple. Why don’t we have a competition to see whose disciple is more powerful?”

After saying this, everyone looked at Lu Li.

However, Lu Li had a calm expression on his face.

“Okay!”

To everyone’s surprise, Demonic Devil straightforwardly agreed. He narrowed his eyes and said coldly, “Where’s your last disciple? Tell him to come out quickly. He’ll die in an instant!”

“It’s hard to say. Hu Fei, come out!”

Flying Fox Monster shouted.

“Yes!”

A youth draped in a white marten stood up and cupped his hands in response. With 1 step, he floated to the center of the hall.

Sixth level of qi refinement realm.

“Lu Li, go play with him,” Demonic Devil ordered coldly.

“Yes.”

Lu Li cupped his hands and slowly walked to the center of the hall, looking at the youth.

The large marten youth also looked at Lu Li.

“Junior Brother Lu, is it? Fifth level of qi refinement realm. I’ll only use the magic power of the fifth level of qi refinement realm later. However… I won’t show you any mercy! If you’re heavily wounded, please don’t blame me,” Hu Fei smiled as he cupped his hands and said.

There was a trace of sinister in his smile, like a cat playing with a mouse.

“Of course. I won’t blame you!”

Lu Li also smiled back at Hu Fei. “I’m so lucky to be able to spar with Senior Brother Hu. Even if I die under your hands, I’ll accept it.”

“Alright!”

Hu Fei laughed.

Although there was no wind blowing in the hall, his robe fluttered.

Under his sleeves, there were a few faint flashes of black light.

Hu Fei was ready to make his move.

At the side, a trace of coldness flashed in Li Jing’s eyes.

The elders frowned slightly too.

A talisman was hidden in Hu Fei’s sleeve. It was a treasure that was created by forcibly compressing the power of a spiritual tool and pouring it into the talisman.

He actually used a talisman in a fight between qi refining stage cultivators? He was a little unethical!

However, Demonic Devil did not say anything.

The Elders did not say anything either. Some of them were gloating and waiting for Lu Li to die.

“Senior Brother, hold on a minute!”

Lu Li suddenly shouted.

“Oh? Junior Brother Lu, what else do you want?”

Hu Fei was stunned for a moment.

“Before the fight begins, I have 1 more thing to remind you,” Lu Li said with a righteous face. “My cultivation has soared recently, and I can’t control my strength well. If I’m not careful enough, I’m afraid I’ll beat you to death. Senior brother, you… are you sure you still want to fight with me?”

This was blatant contempt!

As soon as Lu Li finished speaking, a trace of ruthlessness appeared on Hu Fei’s face. “I’m sure!”

The moment the Hu Fei finished his sentence.

Boom!

The ground shook violently like a volcano erupting.

Lu Li’s scorching blood qi was like boiling lava, gushing toward Hu Fei.

Hu Fei felt the heat wave. His eyebrows and hair seemed to be charred, and he could smell something was burning.

When he blinked and stared at Lu Li, he found that Lu Li was like a ferocious tiger that had come out of its cage. He had already rushed toward him. He was already in front of him.

Lu Li’s huge palm was like a dragon as he fiercely slapped at Hu Fei!

“Hmph!”

“Trying to kill me?”

“No way!”

The killing intent in Hu Fei’s heart surged. Without saying anything else, he was about to activate the talisman in his sleeve and kill Lu Li.

However, from the corner of his eye, he saw his master’s face was gloomy.

In Flying Fox Monster’s eyes, he shockingly saw that Hu Fei was surrounded by 8 afterimages.

Lu Li’s afterimages surrounded Hu Fei from all directions.

Ghostly Steps Technique!

Ghost Shadows!

Not good!

Hu Fei felt something was not right. He secretly cried out for trouble. He was about to dodge and retreat.

However, Lu Li’s afterimages in front of Hu Fei burst like a bubble.

Behind Hu Fei, an afterimage materialized.

Lu Li had a sorrowful look on his face. He used his large palm to hit on Hu Fei’s head.

“Damn it! A sneak attack! You’re unethical! I’m not ready yet…”

A final unwilling thought appeared in Hu Fei’s mind, and the next moment…

Bang!

An explosion sounded.

Blood splattered in all directions, and Hu Fei’s head was gone.

Hu Fei died on the spot.

Whoosh!

The afterimages in the surroundings disappeared one by one.

A gust of strong wind blew on Hu Fei’s corpse.

Puff.

The headless corpse fell to the ground.

Only Lu Li was still standing in the center of the hall.

The familiar scene was reflected in Li Jing’s eyes.

It was also reflected in the eyes of the guests.

Immediately, when everyone saw this scene, their eyes could not help but feel shocked.

Hu Fei… died just like that?

With the talisman in hand, Hu Fei died just like that?

He was not even able to defend against a single move. His head was destroyed by Lu Li with a single slap. He was dead already?

In an instant, the entire hall was completely silent.

Suddenly, the storage ring on Lu Li’s palm flashed with a yellow light. A stack of yellow paper money appeared in his hand, and he casually scattered it.

The yellow paper money that was flying in the air.

Lu Li shook his head and sighed. “Senior Brother, I’ve already warned you that you’ll die. Why didn’t you trust me? However, it’s a good thing that I’m a good person. I’m kind and good-hearted. Take this bit of paper money and spend it slowly on your way to purgatory.”

After Lu Li finished speaking, he took out a stack of paper money again and scattered it on the corpse.

“…”
