Chapter 165 You Can't Blame Society for Bad Luck
"Brother Xiao Cheng is so ruthless..."
At dawn, the sky began to lighten with a fish belly white.
The disciples in white robes from the Inner Sect started walking out of the prison one by one.
Li Muyang, breathing in fresh air to dispel the smell of blood from his body, clicked his tongue in amazement.
The young Valley Master of Chaotic Soul Valley had been tortured throughout the entire night.
Brother Xiao Cheng clearly came prepared, bringing many torture devices specifically aimed at cultivators from the Enforcement Hall on his trip down the mountain.
These punishment tools from the main temple of the sect were much more professional than those found within Tianjiao City.
At first, the young Valley Master of Chaotic Soul Valley could still curse furiously and cast malicious curses.
However, as the torture extended into the late night, the volume of the curses from this crazed woman significantly decreased, and her eyes changed as well.
No longer did she have her initial defiance.
She seemed unable to understand why the Refinement Demon Sect would send disciples in white robes to torment her.
Normally at such a time, weren't they supposed to be preparing to let her go?
Even if the negotiations hadn't been settled, they shouldn't have gone out of their way to torment her...
Truth be told, not only could she not understand, but Li Muyang also found it strange.
Walking at the end of the group, Li Muyang and his adoptive younger sister conversed through transmitted messages.
"...Brother Xiao Cheng is really ruthless, truly a man of few words."
Thinking back to the punishments inflicted last night, Li Muyang still felt his scalp tingle.
Li Yuechan glanced ahead and whispered through a transmitted message.
"It's said that recently there have been sightings of Blood Lotus Sect activities in the city, possibly related to Chaotic Soul Valley. Before the Valley Master of Chaotic Soul Valley came to Tianjiao City, he had met with someone from the Blood Lotus Sect."
"I thought it wasn't anything important, but the reaction from the sect has been intense. It seems this young Valley Master won't be leaving anytime soon."
Li Yuechan whispered, "I suspect last night's punishment was a threat specifically aimed at Chaotic Soul Valley, telling them to keep a distance from Blood Lotus Sect."
His adoptive younger sister indeed had an informed network, immediately providing Li Muyang with new intelligence.
Li Muyang blinked, "Blood Lotus Sect?"
He had heard of these lunatics, a group universally denounced in the Cultivation World.
Both the Path of Immortality and Demon Path cultivators widely shunned these madmen of the Blood Lotus Sect.
The core doctrine of these lunatics involved cleansing the world in blood, vowing to eliminate all cultivators.
According to their belief, disasters, wars, illness, and deaths were caused only because cultivators defied the heavens and angered the celestial beings, leading to divine punishments inflicted upon the world.
If all cultivators were eradicated, appeasing the celestial realms would cease the divine punishments, leaving no more disasters or wars, and everyone would live peacefully and prosperously forever.
Truth be told, it's quite insane.
In his previous life on Earth where there were no cultivators, disasters still occurred.
The Demon Path harbored many lunatics, but groups like the Blood Demon Path, despised both by righteous and evil sects alike, were truly unique.
Li Muyang laughed in disbelief, "Chaotic Soul Valley is a significant power in its own right, with extensive influence and resources; why would they even consider getting involved with the lunatics of Blood Lotus Sect?"
Blood Lotus Sect aimed at eliminating all cultivators, which included Chaotic Soul Valley on their list for eradication.
The old Valley Master of Chaotic Soul Valley must have had his head caught in a door to even contact Blood Lotus Sect.
Li Yuechan spread her hands, "No idea, perhaps the old Valley Master of Chaotic Soul Valley has also gone mad."
"His daughter seems quite mad too."
After leaving the prison, Li Muyang and his company returned to the residence where they were staying and started to enjoy their breakfast for the day.
After breakfast, Brother Xiao Cheng passed the orders that they were to return to the prison for interrogation tonight, then allowed everyone to go about their business.
Li Muyang naturally returned to the guest room at the inn, closing the door to play video games.
The crazies of the Blood Lotus Sect were absurd, but it wasn't something a minor character like Li Muyang needed to worry about.
It was up to a big shot like Yan Xiaoru to deal with the headache.
Li Muyang opened the game and entered the dark lands.
Facing the Work God that leapt out from the darkness, Li Muyang this time abandoned the Dharma Wheel of Annihilation and instead spit out a sword beam from his mouth.
Sword in the Belly!
With a 50% chance of instant death, the flying sword instantly struck the Work God.
The body of the Evil God inside the blood-red sedan chair stiffened suddenly, then disintegrated in the darkness, turning into countless surges of black mud.
The four sedan bearers screamed in agony, unable to escape, and were quickly submerged by the black mud.
In the blink of an eye, a blood-red sedan, along with the Evil God inside and the sedan bearers, all turned into black mud and disappeared underground.
Glass Immortal Maiden was inexplicably astonished.
"Nameless Sir..."
She remembered this flying sword—it had been used by Li Muyang back in Loushan City.
But Glass Immortal Maiden hadn't expected the flying sword to be so terrifying, instantly killing an Ancient Evil God.
Li Muyang, seeing the Immortal Maiden's surprised expression, smiled indifferently.
"Let's keep moving forward."
It wasn't that he wanted to show off; it was just that the system's skill was truly illogical and inexplicable.
Thus, Li Muyang simply played mysterious and continued to run forward with Glass Immortal Maiden through the darkness.
Luckily, Glass Immortal Maiden was not the type to pry further, seeing that Li Muyang did not intend to elaborate, she also kept quiet.
Li Muyang's Sword in the Belly skill had a 100% hit rate and a 50% instant death probability.
In that dungeon in Loushan City, its power hadn't been shown, since there were only minor monsters there.
But in this ancient well full of Evil Gods, the terror of Sword in the Belly became apparent.
Here, there were all Evil God Bosses, each capable of killing Li Muyang and Glass Immortal Maiden in an instant.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
But relying on the cheating skill of Sword in the Belly, Li Muyang could also kill an Evil God—even though the instant kill probability was only 50%.
But at least there was a way to contend against these Evil Gods.
After successfully defeating the Work God, Li Muyang saved the game and continued moving forward with the Glass Immortal Maiden.
Soon, a terrifying health bar emerged in the darkness.
[Dreamweaver]
Seeing the health bar, Li Muyang, without a word, directly spat out the flying sword.
But dense webs came covering the heavens and the earth, and this time the flying sword did not trigger instant death, only inflicting -11 damage on the Evil God's head.
The next second, Li Muyang's vision went black, and he was forcibly ejected from the game.
[You have died, game over]
"...Good, it didn't trigger this time."
Li Muyang shook his head and loaded the game again, reentering the game.
This time, facing the Dreamweaver, Li Muyang still launched the flying sword.
But the instant death probability did not kick in again, and he was killed by the Evil God in an instant.
Li Muyang didn't believe in his bad luck. On his third load of the game, he was still instantly killed by the Dreamweaver.
"Three consecutive failures to trigger instant death, a fifty percent probability... am I really that unlucky?"
Li Muyang released the flying sword skill again, attacking the Dreamweaver.
This time, it finally triggered instant death.
The Dreamweaver fell down and turned into filth in the darkness.
But needing four attempts to trigger instant death, this trigger rate still made Li Muyang complain.
"I get it, this flying sword is meant for the blessed ones."
Li Muyang helplessly covered his face and murmured in a low voice: "No rights for eyebrows at all."
