Daily Divination From Market Rogue Cultivator To Immortal Venerable - Chapter 138

Chapter 138 Do You Know You’re Wrong?

Li Chang’an quietly took two steps back, activating the Thunder Cloud Illusion Array to its full potential.

He knew this man’s identity well.

Huang Feng and Huang Liang’s master!

One must assume the worst of the enemy’s master.

Don’t be careless!

“Little friend Li, there’s no need for this.”

Murong Kang’s expression was warm.

He sensed the murderous intent lurking within and naturally understood what Li Chang’an was thinking.

“I’ve heard from Senior Sister Pei about what happened today. It was indeed my traitorous disciple’s fault. Now that his cultivation has been crippled, he won’t target you again.”

“Crippled?”

Li Chang’an was secretly surprised.

As a cultivator himself, he naturally understood what this meant.

In the mortal world, countless mortals pursued the path to immortality, yearning to experience the feeling of immortality, even willing to sacrifice their lives for it.

And yet, Huang Feng, already an immortal cultivator, had fallen to mortal status.

This disparity was difficult to accept.

If this were true,

Huang Feng would likely be in agony.

Murong Kang didn’t seem to mind, his smile still etched on his face. He said to Li Changan, “It was Senior Sister Pei who did it. She shredded my traitorous disciple’s meridians with her sword energy.”

Shredded!

Li Changan was even more surprised.

The so-called meridian damage usually only caused minor injuries, but shredded was something else entirely.

“Senior, does that mean Fellow Daoist Huang Feng will never be able to cultivate again in his lifetime?”

“Indeed. Barring any unexpected events, he probably won’t be able to cultivate again.”

Murong Kang nodded.

This was the truth; he hadn’t concealed anything.

“My traitorous disciple’s actions were truly despicable. This calamity is only deserved.”

Murong Kang stated that he was fully aware of the matter between Huang Feng and Li Changan.

He had come here today

hoping to fully understand it.

“Young friend Li, my traitorous disciple has become a mortal. I only hope he can live an ordinary life for the rest of his life. Will you agree to this unkind request of mine?”

“Senior, are you worried that I might attack Fellow Daoist Huang Feng?”

Li Changan shook his head.

He said sincerely, “Senior, I’m devoted to cultivation and self-cultivation. I’ve never initiated an argument, and whenever I take action, it’s only out of necessity.”

“Alas, if my traitor had your mindset, he wouldn’t be in this situation.”

Murong Kang sighed, seeming to regret that he hadn’t taught him well enough.

After receiving Li Changan’s promise,

he didn’t linger and turned to leave.

Before leaving,

he invited him, “My cave is located on the hillside of Huanglong Mountain, not far from Senior Sister Pei’s. If you have any questions about your cultivation, please feel free to come to me.”

“Thank you, Senior,”

Li Changan thanked him and watched him leave.

Then,

he closed the door, his expression suddenly cold.

“Did Murong Kang really come here just to end this matter?”

Li Changan wondered.

From the beginning to the end, he had never trusted Murong Kang.

…

Outside the courtyard.

After Murong Kang walked away, he glanced back, his expression equally cold.

“So he’s protected by a second-tier formation. No wonder Senior Brother Chu couldn’t kill him!”

This was exactly what Li Changan had thought.

He hadn’t come to visit Li Changan today to truly end the matter.

He’d simply wanted to see what Li Changan had in store.

Now,

he had seen clearly.

“It’s just a second-tier, low-grade formation. Breaking it wouldn’t be difficult with the right treasure. But Senior Brother Chu is delirious and his mind isn’t working well. He can only use brute force to break the formation, so it’s no wonder he’s trapped.”

He silently pondered a strategy to break the formation.

Unknowingly,

he had returned to the foot of Huanghe Mountain and arrived at Huang Feng’s residence.

At that moment,

Huang Feng lay on his sickbed, his face ashen, his eyes devoid of their former brilliance.

“My meridians, my cultivation… gone, all gone…”

The pain of being reduced to a mortal was something he had never imagined before.

Now, he even considered ending it all with death.

Death

would free him from this pain.

But he couldn’t bear it, because Li Chang’an was still alive and could continue his cultivation!

“Feng’er, do you know you were wrong?”

Murong Kang approached and asked him calmly.

Huang Feng trembled and replied hoarsely, “Master, I know I was wrong. I shouldn’t have killed Uncle Chu’s disciple.”

“Alas, it seems you still don’t understand your mistake.”

Murong Kang sighed, somewhat disappointed.

He sat beside the sickbed and patiently explained.

“Kill him, there’s no need to regret. For cultivators like us, what can’t we do to achieve immortality?”

“Huh?”

Huang Feng was stunned. He had never expected his master to say such words to him.

Murong Kang added, “Your mistake was that you didn’t handle this matter well enough, allowing Senior Sister Pei to notice the flaw. If you had done it more perfectly, you wouldn’t have suffered this disaster.”

At this point, he glanced at Huang Liang, who was not far away.

Huang Liang’s face paled, and he quickly knelt.

“Master, it’s my fault!”

It was his idea.

It shouldn’t have gone wrong.

After all, with Chu Xiong’s intelligence, he wouldn’t have realized this was a deliberate plot.

But…

who could have imagined?

Li Changan would actually invite Pei Yingyao again!

“Forget it, get up. You haven’t reached Foundation Establishment yet, so your vision is ultimately limited.”

Murong Kang waved his hand.

He looked back at Huang Feng, lying on the sickbed, a softer expression on his face.

“Heal your wounds well. I’ll find a treasure to reconnect your meridians.”

Huang Feng’s heart warmed, and tears streamed down his face.

“Master…”

“Don’t say anything. This is what a master should do.”

With that, Murong Kang stood up.

“As for Li Changan, I will cultivate a phantom puppet. It will have 30% of my cultivation. With the array-breaking treasure, he should be able to kill him.”

He didn’t dare to act himself, fearing that Pei Yingyao would be provoked again.

After all, he was no match for her.

What if the truth were revealed?

He could only cry out, “Master, help me,” begging Master Huang He to save him.

“Huang Liang, take good care of your junior brother,”

Murong Kang said with a simple command, and then he left.

He left the courtyard, a trace of impatience on his face.

Then,

he saw him clasp his hands together, casting a complex spell. A faint blood-red figure appeared in his palms.

This figure was an exact replica of Huang Feng.

“What a loser! He’s been destroyed by my senior sister before he even reached the level I could devour!”

Murong Kang felt irritated, a faint flash of blood in his eyes.

…

Time flew by. Three months later.

Inside the courtyard,

Li Changan was experimenting with the art of painting skin.

After days of study and practice, he had completely mastered the art of manipulating human skin.

As for making human skin,

he hadn’t attempted it.

The materials required to make fake skin were numerous and difficult to collect.

And making real leather required living cultivators as materials.

Li Changan hadn’t tried it yet.

“No need to make the skin for now, just control it.”

Over these days,

he had completely mastered the identity of Li Fan.

He even used this identity to contact some Jie Xiu, and no one noticed anything unusual.
