Chapter 316: The Peculiarities of the Heavenly Fiend Sect

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation  Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Jia Ping city was located in a small city in the north of the center of the Southern Continent.

It was a small city, it was only slightly bigger than an ordinary small town.

There were not many people living in this small city, but living here was better than living in the beautiful scenery. It could also be considered relatively comfortable.

According to the directions on the map and combined with what they learned from Wu Nanshan’s mouth, Gu Xi and Liu Qingqing quickly found Liu Qingqing’s home.

Liu Qingqing’s home was probably located in the northeast corner of Jia Ping City. The people here had moved here from the countryside outside the city a while ago, so most of the people living here were so-called countrymen, of course, most of them were from poor families.

When the two of them finally reached their destination, the scene in front of them made Gu Xi’s face suddenly sink.

In front of a dilapidated-looking house not far away, a few men dressed in the same clothes were pushing an old woman.

Not only that, they even kept cursing her.

“You old fart, if you still can’t pay the money tomorrow, Don’t blame me for tearing down your dog kennel!”

The leader of the group, a fierce-looking man, grabbed the old woman’s white hair and opened his eyes wide as he spoke in a stern voice.

“My family doesn’t have money. Even if I had money, I would never hand it over to you.”

The old woman endured the pain, but there was not much fear in her slightly weathered eyes. It was as if she was already used to such things.

“You damned old woman, you actually dare to talk back?”

Anger involuntarily surged onto the man’s face. He immediately raised his hand and threw a slap over.

The old woman subconsciously closed her eyes. However, the pain that she had expected did not arrive. She opened her eyes in puzzlement.

She saw a green-clothed man in front of her at this moment. The man’s long and slender hand had firmly grabbed the man’s slapping hand.

“You f*cking don’t want to live anymore?! How dare you stop me!”

The fierce-looking man was stunned for a moment before he snapped back to his senses and shouted. At the same time, he wanted to withdraw his hand. However, no matter how much strength he exerted, his hand did not move at all. It was as if his hand had stuck in stone.

Gu Xi did not pay attention to the man’s threat. Instead, he turned her head to look at the old woman behind him. He narrowed his eyes and smiled as he asked, “May I ask, grandmother-in-law, do you know where Liu Qingqing’s home is?”

“Liu Qingqing?”

Hearing this, the old woman was obviously stunned. Then, she pointed to the dilapidated little house behind her and said, “This is it.”

Gu Xi was also a little confused. He asked in surprise, “Could it be that you are Liu Qingqing’s mother?”

Hearing this, the old woman nodded repeatedly.

“I said, are you deaf? Can’t you hear me when I’m talking to you?!” At this moment, the fierce man’s voice sounded again.

Gu Xi suddenly turned his head back, and a terrifying cold light suddenly burst out from his eyes. He said sternly, “Get away from me. Don’t let me see you again!”

As soon as she finished speaking, Gu Xi threw the man a few feet away.

“You’re f*cking courting death!”

Seeing how strong Gu Xi was, the man could not help but be furious. He stood up and was about to make a move.

However, in the next moment, a cold killing intent burst out from Gu Xi’s body and enveloped the few of them in the blink of an eye.

Feeling this killing intent, an icy coldness shot up from the man’s heels to the top of his head, scaring him so much that he shivered violently.

“You… Do you know who I am!?” The man subconsciously swallowed his saliva and took two steps back.

“Get lost!” Gu Xi was not interested at all and only said coldly.

“Just you wait!” the man pointed at Gu Xi and said sternly. He did not dare to stay any longer and turned around to leave with his men in a sorry state.

“Reckless things.” Looking at the backs of the few of them leaving, Gu Xi snorted coldly. Then, she turned her head to look at the old woman behind her. Her expression immediately changed and she smiled. “Grandma, what’s wrong with these people?”

Mother Liu sighed slightly. She explained, “These people are all disciples of the Heavenly Fiend Sect in Jia Ping City. Ever since we moved here from the countryside, they have been coming to us every day to ask for money. However, we are just villagers and we don’t have much money in our pocket. How could we have the money to hand over?”

As she said this, Mother Liu could not help but feel a little worried.

These people had hit a wall now. They would definitely not give up so easily. In the future, they would most likely become even worse.

Gu Xi also sensed Mother Liu’s worry, but he did not say anything more. Instead, he helped Mother Liu back into the house.

“You know Qingqing?”

In the room, Mother Liu looked carefully at Gu Xi, “Did Qingqing cause any trouble?”

“No, Junior Gu Xi is the same as Junior Sister Liu. We are both disciples of the Medicine King Valley.” Gu Xi shook his head, and then a trace of undetectable sadness flashed across his face. He continued, “I happened to pass by this place on a mission in the sect, so I thought I’d drop by to see you.”

“It’s good that she didn’t cause any trouble.” Mother Liu secretly heaved a sigh of relief, and then asked with some concern, “Then how has Qingqing been these years in the sect?”

“She’s fine. Auntie doesn’t need to worry. Perhaps… She’ll come back to see you in a while.” Gu Xi forced out a smile.

Or maybe, the two of them would never see each other again.

The two of them chatted with each other, and soon, the sky gradually darkened.

Mother Liu wanted to stay for dinner, but Gu Xi refused because of the mission. Before she left, Gu Xi left a bag of spirit stones, enough to support Mother Liu to spend the rest of her life.

This could be considered as doing something for Liu Qingqing.

After leaving the dilapidated hut, Gu Xi let out a long sigh of relief.

In this way, Liu Qingqing’s last wish was fulfilled.

However, Gu Xi was not in a hurry to leave the small city. Instead, his gaze fell on a certain place in the city.

Soon, Gu Xi and Yun Zhiyi arrived above the Heavenly Fiend Sect.

“The Heavenly Fiend Sect oppresses the common people, causing them to live in poverty. This matter should end here.” Gu Xi spoke indifferently, his spiritual sense covering the entire Heavenly Fiend Sect below.

He knew that if he did not completely eliminate the Heavenly Fiend Sect, Mother Liu’s life would definitely not be peaceful in the future.

The Heavenly Fiend Sect was merely a small sect.

With Gu Xi’s current cultivation, one person was enough to wipe out the entire sect.

He no longer hesitated. Taking advantage of the night, this was also a good time to kill and start a fire.

The boundless spiritual power of the early stage of the Saint stage surged out from Gu Xi’s body. A heavy pressure that was as heavy as a mountain rolled down towards the Heavenly Fiend Sect below.

In just an instant, the rolling spiritual power approached the Heavenly Fiend Sect’s main gate.

At this moment, an extremely complicated blood-red array suddenly burst out with a dazzling light. The strange red barrier instantly enveloped the entire Heavenly Fiend Sect and actually forcefully withstood Gu Xi’s attack.
