Ever since Li Xianyu embarked on this journey and officially made contact with the demon descendant community, he had encountered the forces of Ancient Gods Clan, headed by the God of War and Li Peiyun in Sanliban Village. That mission nearly caused the entire team to get wiped out.

Misfortune had turned into fortune, as the long-legged beauty had taken a liking to him in the life-and-death battle. This was definitely not his hallucination. Since then, Thunderbolt Battle Lady’s attitude towards him had changed significantly.

Later, they encountered chaos in the northeast. Despite knowing the company rules and regulations, Li Xianyu still accompanied her and charged to the Wu family, and even protected her in the battle by providing self-healing blood. Thunderbolt Battle Lady also confided in him, about her miserable childhood experience.

Therefore, the two became closer with each other. With Thunderbolt Battle Lady’s personality, if she wasn’t particularly close with the opposite sex, she could not manage to act cute and ask for money.

However, due to Li Xianyu’s disastrous reputation, Thunderbolt Battle Lady never expressed her feelings and merely revealed hints of “come pursue me, if you manage to pursue me, I’ll have sex with you.”

Erm, the part about having sex should be Li Xianyu being delusional.

Anyway, Li Peiyun was his enemy and had great potential. He might become his arch-enemy for life.

Li Xianyu should be happy to hear that the Buddhist society and Baoze were prepared to sentence him to death. However, Li Peiyun was the Demonic Priest now. Li Peiyun was using his life to help clear the Demonic Priest’s name, and Li Xianyu felt conflicted.

“If the judgment is today, it means it hasn’t been formally decided. Sentencing Li Peiyun is just a proposal, right?” Li Xianyu asked.

“What do you want to do?” Thunderbolt Battle Lady asked in return.

“Nothing, I’m just curious.” Li Xianyu looked over. “What are you writing?”

“I’m counting my bills and income for the month.” Thunderbolt Battle Lady bit the pen and frowned. “What am I going to do? Even if I borrow 500,000 from you, I bet 800,000 that Dan Chenzi will win. Together with your points, a little bit of my own meager savings… Oh, I don’t have any savings. I’m still three million short to pay my debts.”

“What the fuck, what did you do last month? Donated money to a hundred elementary schools?” Li Xianyu knew Thunderbolt Battle Lady was a spendthrift. Don’t look at how she’s dressed in such a chic manner, this pair of off-white tight jeans that wrapped around her long, shapely legs, cost 5000 dollars. What’s worth mentioning was that she negatively influenced Great-Grandma in only wearing branded goods.

However, when hearing Thunderbolt Battle Lady’s bills, he was still in disbelief.

Who the hell would be able to support this woman, what the actual fuck.

“Nothing much. Other than daily expenses, I’ve got a loan for a Ferrari.” Thunderbolt Battle Lady saw Li Xianyu’s expression darken, and explained hurriedly, “I wanted a badass sports car very early, but I was poor and I couldn’t afford it. Last month, I decided to just do it, and bought it.”

Li Xianyu said, “So, who gave you the courage to just do it? Qin Baobao?”

Thunderbolt Battle Lady explained exasperatedly, “The world is tough. I am a woman who is struggling to make a living and can’t make money. It seems that I can only find a rich and greasy uncle, to ensure a basic material life.”

She glanced at Li Xianyu, looking charming and adorable.

Great-Grandma immediately turned her head. “No matter which rich and greasy uncle it is, I agree to this marriage.”

Thunderbolt Battle Lady rolled her eyes internally and pretended not to hear anything.

Li Bai interrupted. “Battle Lady, I have 28 years of savings. Marry me and I’ll give all of it to you.”

Lady Killer puffed out a mouthful of smoke. “Battle Lady, I don’t have 28 years. I have one and half months of savings.”

Kato Eagle said, “I…”

“What about you? Shut up.” Li Xianyu spat at the bunch of experienced perverts, “Go go go.”

Everyone chuckled knowingly.

“Money is easy to earn.” Li Xianyu suggested, “When we get off the mountain, go on missions with me. I guarantee that you will earn big bucks.”

Thunderbolt Battle Lady was seriously contemplating, between money and life, which was more important…

Li Xianyu left the courtyard alone and gave Jie Se a call, as he wanted to ask where Li Peiyun was held prisoner at. However, the other party didn’t answer the call. Since he didn’t stay far away, Li Xianyu walked over to find him.

When Li Xianyu had just approached Jie Se’s room, he heard an agitated voice speaking in stilted Mandarin. “I waited three days in Lianghua Temple, and you all are not competing anymore? The Forum Conference started out with a bang and ended with a fizzle? I can’t accept this, I can’t accept it.”

Jie Se replied nonchalantly, “What’s the use of you not accepting it? This decision is made by the Buddhist society.”

The voice replied angrily, “I want to complain. I want to lodge a complaint.”

Jie Se said, “Complaint rejected.”

Li Xianyu stood at the door and knocked on the door twice. “Can I come in? Did something happen?”

After making his presence known, he pushed the door open. Jie Se’s room was adorned simply, just like that of Buddha Head. Around the only table in the room, bathed in the afternoon sunlight that shone in from the window, Jie Se held a book, and at the table stood an agitated foreigner, with his hands on the table.

He glared and tried to get Jie Se to yield with his powerful aura, but Jie Se’s expression remained nonchalant and unconcerned.

“You are…” Li Xianyu looked at the foreigner for a few seconds, and felt he was a familiar face. He finally reacted, “You’re the Canadian that is in the top four, right?”

That Canadian! I think… He was one of the top four.

Zhao Ding cradled his heart exhaustedly. “If you can’t pronounce my original name, you can call me…”

He waved despondently and left without a word. Forget it. No one would remember him as one of the top four anyway. Jie Se and Dan Chenzi were akin to popular celebrities, and their light was too dazzling. Li Xianyu was a high-profile figure, the three of them had completely snatched the spotlight away from him.

Soon after, the incidents of Hua Yu and Taoist Reverend that shook the entire demon descendants community had happened in the Forum Conference.

Hah, who can still remember that I’m one of the top four.

The saddest thing was that the Forum Conference was terminated. Not suspended, but it had ended. This conference didn’t have a champion, as no one was concerned about the Forum Conference anymore.

The Chinese as well as the international demon descendant communities have been focused on the case of the Taoist Reverend and the Demonic Priest. Who would still care about the Forum Conference?

His plan of becoming well-known in China has failed, but it doesn’t matter. At the end of the year, there was a league organized by the United States and Europe, which is the broader stage.

Zhao Ding has decided that after the Great Deities Palace event had ended, he would return to Canada and focus on cultivation to prepare for the league organized once every eight years. By then, he would wear the brightest clothes and attract everyone’s attention.

“He left just like that…” Li Xianyu watched his retreating back, muttering. He then looked at Jie Se and asked, “Where is Li Peiyun locked up at? I want to see him.”

Jie Se was expressionless. “The first courtyard of the east side, you can see it when you arrive, a lot of people are guarding it.”

Li Xianyu replied, “Oh,” and turned to leave. He stopped at the door and turned to ask, “Hmm. Dan Chenzi isn’t with you?”

Jie Se froze. “This is my room, why would he be with me?”

Li Xianyu said matter-of-factly, “Don’t you two have a bromance going on? Y’all kept sitting together at the Forum Conference.”

Jie Se’s face twitched. “Scram.”

Li Xianyu said, “Okay, ass.”

Li Xianyu found the yard where Li Peiyun was kept captive very quickly. Buddhist society members were guarding the door and Baoze staff were patrolling around the yard.

They weren’t worried that Li Peiyun would escape or be rescued by someone, they were trying to prevent random audience from approaching.

Three days have passed and only a small percentage of the Forum Conference audience have left. Most of them remained in Lianghua Temple to watch the drama, as they want to see how the Buddhist society and Baoze will handle Li Peiyun.

They also wanted to see the Buddhist society’s stance on this matter, and for them to make the final conclusion for the case of the Taoist Reverend and the Demonic Priest.

The news of the three parties deciding to sentence Li Peiyun to death had spread in Lianghua Temple, stirring up a commotion. At first, Li Peiyun’s female fans made a ruckus in Lianghua Temple, stating their disapproval to this conclusion.

However, monks and priests had allied to get them to keep quiet. They were now very silent and dared not continue to kick up a ruckus.

“Halt!” Two young priests blocked Li Xianyu, their faces cold. “You may not enter.”

“It’s me. I’m Li Xianyu. Even I can’t enter?” Li Xianyu was slightly surprised. My face is so handsome but it isn’t effective here?

The two young priests’ expressions were cold. “No.”

Li Xianyu sensed that they were picking on him intentionally.

“You two want to be cheeky with me, huh?” Li Xianyu removed his glove.

The two priests and two monks’ faces changed, as they all took a few steps backwards.

“Hmph!” Li Xianyu snorted in disdain and walked into the yard with big steps.

Looks like my left hand’s perverted reputation has inflicted fear on both male and females.

When he just entered the yard, he saw Lightning King slam the door and stormed out, his expression dark.

“Lightning King!” Li Xianyu waved.

“Why are you here?” Lightning King was surprised.

The two sat by the stone table in the yard. Lightning King lit up a cigarette and threw one to Li Xianyu. Li Xianyu waved his hands, pushed the cigarette back and took out another pack of cigarettes from his pocket.

“Why, do you think my cigarettes are cheap?” Lightning King asked in a muffled voice.

He was used to smoking civilian cigarettes which cost twenty dollars per pack. Experienced smokers didn’t look at the price when smoking, but rather at the taste. He was used to smoking these cigarettes. Even if one were to give them more expensive cigarettes, they might not fancy it.

“I smoked your kind of cigarettes before, it’s too choking. I don’t have a smoking addiction, I’m just smoking one with you,” Li Xianyu replied.

The two sat at the rock table, smoking, as Li Xianyu huffed out a mouthful of smoke. “Looking at your frustrated face, what were you doing in there?”

“Li Peiyun is a stubborn brat and refuses to tell us the hiding spot of the remaining members of the Ancient Gods Clan. As for Li Zhu’s bombs, the Taoist Faction has sent people to check near their vicinity. However, it’s difficult to locate bombs which are installed everywhere in the different provinces.”

Lightning King sighed. “Baoze has sent people to conduct checks in every major province. However, the city is so huge, who knows where they installed the bombs at?”

“Is he using this as a threat?” Li Xianyu asked.

“I think so. After all, no one wants to die. I gave him a chance. As long as he is willing to cooperate, Baoze is willing to step out to guarantee for him, or even recruit him,” Lightning King said.

“Recruit him?”

“Mmhmm. This brat has been biding his time for ten years, and has only appeared before the public’s eye recently. Although he is the leader of the Ancient Gods Clan, he hasn’t done anything heinous. Baoze can accept some criminal records which aren’t too overboard.”

“Afterall, some of our colleagues are in the gray area and we have people with all kinds of history. As long as he is willing to abandon the path of evil, Baoze is happy to accept such talent.”

What the hell, the company wants to recruit Li Peiyun behind my back? I am definitely not agreeing to this “marriage.”

“But even if the Taoist Faction wants to kill him, he won’t agree to come to Baoze?” Li Xianyu said, “Also, isn’t the Taoist Faction too overboard? Li Peiyun didn’t even bomb their territory, why do they want him dead?”

“Using an analogy… I have been hating the Japanese recently, so let’s use them as an example.” Lightning King flicked the cigarette ash away.

“If the Japanese Prime Minister were to commit an unforgivable crime deserving of death, and a group of Chinese with the banner of justice suddenly rushed out and took out a small pistol to shoot at the Japanese Prime Minister to impose justice on him, do you think the Japanese people’s reaction is to clap their hands or be angry?”

“Oh… Although it isn’t an appropriate analogy, I get what you mean.”

The Taoist Reverend was in the wrong, but this didn’t mean that Li Peiyun was innocent. It was reasonable for the Taoist Faction to refuse to let Li Peiyun off. They must be equally pissed off at him, but he had Baoze and Great-Grandma to back him up.

Baoze’s public relations were done well too and managed to make his image reputable. If the Taoist Faction refused to back down, that would mean they were condoning the Taoist Reverend, which was being unreasonable.

Li Xianyu finally understood Lightning King’s effort in public relations, despite sacrificing sleep for it. He had removed Li Xianyu from this controversy safely.

He had people to back him up but Li Peiyun didn’t. Moreover, Li Peiyun was a wanted criminal of the Buddhist society and Baoze.

“How about I have a talk with him?” Li Xianyu said.
