Only at the Mahayana Stage Does the Reversal System Appear - Chapter 203

Chapter 203 The pot calling the kettle black

Chapter 203:

The Laughing Man in the Face of a Thousand Steps. This demon cultivator was certain that no other demon cultivator had encountered the same situation as himself.

Unlike the rampant and overbearing demon cultivators of ancient times, their status is now precarious. Due to the Human Emperor Palace and other major factions’ crackdown on demon cultivators, they are on the verge of extinction, and most of their inheritances have been taken as trophies and stored within the Human Emperor Palace.

With enough casualties, demon cultivators can rapidly advance. He had accumulated his Divine Transformation stage cultivation by killing and burying people here and there. Although

this Divine Transformation stage demon cultivator may appear prosperous, he is actually like a stray dog, afraid to even venture into the bustling streets.

Imagine his excitement upon discovering this small town.

This demon cultivator believed that the heavens must have taken pity on him and gifted him this town.

To the demon cultivator, the people in this town are not even human, but rather his future cultivation.

Every demon cultivator who survived to this day is cautious. He feared that the disappearance of such a large town would attract the Human Emperor Palace’s pursuit, and he would then be dead without a seal. So he didn’t act immediately. Instead, he disguised himself as a traveler, carefully living there and investigating the town.

He described himself as a middle-aged man with no one to rely on, just looking for a place to make a living. So he applied for a job at a restaurant, and the owner readily agreed to let him work as a waiter.

Restaurants are places with the most intelligence, and the waiter’s identity makes it easy for him to gather intelligence.

For a month, he was summoned and dismissed at will, diligently disguising himself as a real waiter.

Finally, he discovered that this town was almost isolated from the outside world, and the mayor was the only one in the Nascent Soul stage.

This meant that even if everyone in the town died, no one would notice.

What a godsend!

The demon cultivator was ecstatic, overwhelmed with excitement. He wanted to sacrifice the town with blood to improve his cultivation!

So he set up a blood sacrifice formation that would surely kill anyone below the Golden Core stage.

The result was obvious: the place was full of dead, and it was impossible to use blood sacrifice to improve cultivation.

After the blood sacrifice failed, the demonic cultivator discovered that the town was deserted, filled with corpses. The mayor’s ability to control the corpse parasites was so advanced that even a Spiritual Transformation cultivator like him didn’t notice anything unusual.

He had foolishly lived among corpses for a month, painstakingly gathering intelligence and setting up the blood sacrifice formation!

Thinking of the hardships he had endured over the past month, the demonic cultivator felt a joke, an insult to his intelligence!

If word of this got out, how could he survive in the martial arts world?

That wasn’t right, the demonic cultivator realized. If word got out that he was a demonic cultivator, not only would his survival be in jeopardy, but his very survival would be in jeopardy.

Even so, he flew into a rage, threatening to imprison Aisu and put her to death. However,

because of her beauty, he decided to enjoy her first.

Unexpectedly, before he could even take off his pants, he was kicked aside by Commander Mu.

Jiang Li didn’t even need the demonic cultivator to confess; after listening to Aisu’s account, he had already guessed the demonic cultivator’s intentions.

It could only be said that Aisu’s corpse Gu cultivation was exceptional.

Seeing that Aisu hadn’t killed anyone or suffered any humiliation, Commander Mu finally relaxed.

Commander Mu had found his fiancée, Aisu had found a way out for the Gu Clan, and the demonic cultivators were seeking death. Everyone had a bright future.

A demonic cultivator who had reached the Spiritual Transformation stage had countless wronged souls on their hands.

Such a demonic cultivator, in the hands of the Human Emperor Palace, could not be allowed to live.

“Commander Mu, I leave this person in your care. See if you can follow him to find more demonic cultivators.” Jiang Li believed this demonic cultivator had connections with others, perhaps even a long list.

As for how Commander Mu would find them, that wasn’t Jiang Li’s concern.

Commander Mu agreed. He was well versed in such matters.

“So, you passed the Gu Immortal test, possess a love Gu connected to me, and are truly my fiancé?” After hearing the High Priest’s statement, Aisu looked at Commander Mu with a complicated expression.

She hadn’t expected to find a fiancé six months after leaving the Gu Clan.

But the Gu Immortal’s intentions were absolute, and as a member of the Gu Clan, she couldn’t disobey him.

Furthermore, this man was indeed powerful and handsome, fitting Aisu’s ideal of a future husband.

But the thought of them getting married so soon after meeting, as if being forcibly forced into the bridal chamber, gave her a nagging feeling.

“No, I think the Gu Immortal’s behavior is wrong. The feelings between two people are pure. How can they be bound by a love Gu?” Commander Mu said righteously.

He was undoubtedly attracted to Aisu, but claiming that he had a love Gu in his body and would explode if they didn’t enter the bridal chamber, wasn’t gentlemanly behavior.

Using a love Gu to form a marriage was a joke; Commander Mu had his limits. He

assumed the Gu Immortal must have been hurt by a man before, which was why he invented the love Gu, something that creates rifts between men and women.

“Am I not good-looking?” Aisu was surprised by Commander Mu’s response, and she felt a complex mixture of emotions. She wouldn’t accept him even if he offered her something for nothing. Was she not even remotely attractive in his eyes?

“Beautiful,” Commander Mu nodded sincerely. “Of all the women I’ve ever seen, you’re the most beautiful… Wait, there’s even Saint Pure Heart ahead of you.”

“Second most beautiful… That’s not right, there’s Queen Yuyin.”

“Third most beautiful… No, Island Master Mo of Penglai Fairy Island is also ahead of her.”

Finally, Commander Mu said seriously, “Of all the women I’ve ever seen, you’re the fourth most beautiful!”

He felt this was a sincere compliment to Aisu, and she would be delighted.

The demon cultivator, knowing his own death, should have been heartbroken, but upon hearing Commander Mu’s answer, he laughed honestly, earning Commander Mu’s glare.

Jiang Li remarked that it was fortunate Commander Mu hadn’t met Fairy Hongchen and Monk Dameng, otherwise Aisu would have been ranked even lower.

He also scoffed internally. With that kind of emotional intelligence, how could he possibly win over a girl?

Jiang Li figured it was simply because no one liked him. Otherwise, with his emotional intelligence, wouldn’t it be easy for him to find a wife and start a family?

Seeing Jiang Li’s sneer, the High Priest knew he looked down on Commander Mu’s response. Curious, he asked, “If Emperor Jiang were in Commander Mu’s position, how would he respond?”

This was the strongest cultivator in Jiuzhou. He should take every opportunity to ask questions; learning anything from them was a win.

Jiang Li, ever the teacher, explained to the High Priest, “Girls love to hear lies, so you absolutely can’t tell the truth to a girl.”

Jiang Li felt his logic was sound. He did find Aisu pretty, but not the prettiest. And since girls don’t like to hear the truth, the answer was obvious.

“I’d just say she’s not pretty,”

the High Priest said, his gaze sideways, as if he had just met Emperor Jiang.

Emperor Jiang’s answer was completely different from what he’d expected.

Was that the response of a Mahayana cultivator? It was truly unexpected.

The High Priest suddenly understood. No wonder he’d been stuck in the Nascent Soul stage, unable to make any progress. It turned out the mindset gap between him and the strongest cultivators was too great.

He felt that emulating Emperor Jiang’s mindset would surely help him break through to the Nascent Soul stage and achieve the Divine Transformation stage.

Jiang Li stepped forward enthusiastically and asked, “Do you need me to help you two cut off the love poison?”

“Cut! Must cut!” Aisu gritted her teeth when she said the word cut, and it was unclear whether she wanted to cut off the love poison or something else.

Jiang Li smiled and used the sword of the heart, easily cutting off the love poison in Commander Mu and Aisu’s bodies.

Commander Mu didn’t even react.

He sighed again, if Brother Jiang was an enemy, it would be too easy to kill him.

By the way, why did Aisu say that? Did he say something wrong? Commander Mu was confused.

Commander Mu didn’t know much about the relationship between men and women, so he decided to find an opportunity to ask Brother Jiang and learn from him.
