Chapter 36 – I’ve already said I have a strong trump card, yet you still don’t believe me

  I days, to catch Li Qinghai leaving his residehe brothers Ye Kaishan and Ye gshan have beeless, uo eat or sleep. Their longing was akin to that for a beloved. Now, finally seeing the ohey had been dreaming of, Li Qinghai, they wasted no time in following him.

  However, to prevent Li Qinghai from rushing back to Green Bamboo Residehey decided not to act immediately. Instead, they po wait until he was further away to make their move.

  Li Qinghai leisurely made his way towards Falling Snow Residence, unaware of the two Qi Refining cultivators with ill iions trailing behind him. The distaween Falling Snow Residend Green Bamboo Residence was quite signifit, requiring at least the time it takes for two inse sticks to burn if walking. Although Li Qinghai had learned Sword Flight, he chose not to use it. For a Qi Refining cultivator, the spiritual energy ption of Sword Flight was immense. Moreover, a few days ago, someone had clearly tried to lure him out of Green Bamboo Residenow, Li Qinghai was uain if the lurking cultivator had left. Therefore, to be safe, he refrained from using Sword Flight, serving his spiritual energy for ued dangers.

  After walking for a while, Li Qinghai was a siderable distance from Green Bamboo Residence. Ye Kaishahat at such a dista would be nearly impossible for Li Qinghai to run baow was the perfect time to strike. The two brothers jumped down from the rge tree behind him.

  Ye Kaishan called out loudly, "Li Qinghai, long time no see!"

  Li Qinghai turned around and g them, "Oh, it's you." As he spoke, he tapped his Ste Bag, drawing the Spiritual Water Sword into his hand.

  Ye gshan chuckled, "You seem to have some self-awareness, knowing we're after you, and even took out your Spiritual Sword in advance. But do you think it will help?"

  The Sword Drawing Teique required charging, and Li Qinghai was more than willing to stall them. He sighed lightly, "Even if it's useless, I have tle a bit, don't I?"

  "Li Qinghai, I remember you weren't afraid of death at all before. Why struggle now?" Ye gshan asked.

  "Back then, my cultivation wasn't high, and I was young and reckless. Now that I've advanced a bit, I've realized how difficult cultivation is, and I cherish my life more," Li Qinghai replied slowly.

  "Hahaha," Ye gshan ughed heartily, "It's a pity you realized this too te."

  "It is a bit te. I regret meddling in things I shouldn't have. Do you think it's too te for me to admit my mistake now?" Li Qinghai asked with a sincere look of remorse.

  Ye gshan's eyes twinkled as he suddenly thought of a way to humiliate Li Qinghai. "It's not too te. If you kneel and kowtow to me three times, I'll spare your life," Ye gshan said with a wide grin.

  "Really? Let me... think about it," Li Qinghai preteo hesitate.

  Ye Kaishan noticed the absence of pani Li Qinghai's fad frowned slightly, feeling a bad premonition. He sehat Li Qinghai had something up his sleeve. To avoid any unforeseen plications, he urged, "Little brother, stop pying around, let's do it."

  "Big brother, wait a bit. Li Qinghai is just a mere fifth-level Qi Refining cultivator; he 't stir up much trouble," Ye gshan clearly didn't want to miss this iliate Li Qinghai.

  "Hurry up, my patience is limited."

  Suddenly, Li Qinghai grinned, "I've realized that dignity is more important. If you want to kill me, go ahead. I won't kneel."

  Ye gshan, seeing Li Qinghai's smile, felt as if he was being pyed. Enraged, he spped his Ste Bag, and a Spiritual Sword appeared in his hand. "If you won't kneel, I'll make you kneel," he said, eling spiritual energy into the sword and thrusting it towards Li Qinghai. The sword shimmered with a cold light uhe spiritual energy.

  Li Qinghai squinted slightly, silently ting in his heart. Closer, just a bit closer!

  Ye Kaishan sensed something was off about Li Qinghai's state and quickly shouted, "Little brother, stop, don't go any further!"

  "Big brother, what are you afraid of? Your caution shouldn't be wasted on a fifth-level Qi Refining cultivator!" At this point, Ye Kaishan was only four or five meters away from Li Qinghai. This distance was enough!

  Li Qinghai smiled, "Have you ever heard the saying, vilins die from talking too much?"

  As soon as he finished speaking, Li Qinghai suddenly drew his sword!

  Sword Drawing Teique!!

  g!

  The Spiritual Water Sword uhed, its tip aimed directly at Ye gshan. A dazzling sword light streaked like a meteor.

  Spt!

  The sword light pierced through Ye gshan's chest. His body froze, standing still. He looked down in disbelief, seeing a bloody hole in his chest, his clothes stained red with blood. Struggling, he lifted his head to look at Li Qinghai.

  "You... how could you..."

  Before he could finish, Ye gshan's body fell backward.

  "Little brother!" Ye Kaishan cried out in anguish but didn't move closer. He watched Li Qinghai with angry, cautious eyes. The power of Li Qinghai's sword just now was enough to make even a seventh-level Qi Refining cultivator like him shiver. If it had been him instead of Ye gshan, the oute would have been the same.

  Li Qinghai observed Ye Kaishan, who remaiill, and silently praised him. Indeed, cautious enough! Even the death of his brother couldn't provoke him.

  Ye Kaisha Li Qinghai, speaking coldly, "I uimated you. I didn't expect you to have such a lethal move!"

  Li Qinghai pondered slightly. Is Ye Kaishan trying to test if I have any strength left? Then I should do the opposite!

  Feigning fidence, Li Qinghai decred loudly, "There's a lot you didn't expect. I could kill your brother, and I kill you too." As he spoke, his hand holding the sword trembled slightly, which he then subtly hid behind his back. Though his hand was hidden, the sword tip was not, and it was visibly shaking.

  Seeing these signs, Ye Kaishan ughed, "Li Qinghai, you've hidden well, but you've still shown a fw!"

  Li Qinghai feigned ess, "Hmph. I don't know what you're talking about. If you dare, e and try. I guarantee you'll end up like your brother!"

  Ye Kaishan shook his head, stepping towards Li Qinghai, "Li Qinghai, there's o ao matter how strong you pretend to be, it 't hide the fact that you're weak right now."

  "Arrogant! I still have a powerful trump card. If you dare to touch me, you won't even know how you died," Li Qinghai maintained his posure, though his tone carried a hint of panic, ag just right.

  By now, Ye Kaishan had reached the spot where Ye gshan had fallen. He g his brother's lifeless body, his killing i rising, and tiowards Li Qinghai.

  "Li Qinghai, you stabbed my brother once! I'll repay you with a huabs!"

  Ye Kaishan advaep by step. Li Qinghai finally began to falter, retreating in fear.

  "You... don't e any closer, don't push me..."

  With a ctter, Li Qinghai's trembling hand dropped the Spiritual Sword to the ground. Ye Kaishan, who had been somewhat cautious, finally felt pletely assured. He leaped towards Li Qinghai.

  "Li Qinghai, you're full of fws! You're about to die, how long will you keep ag?!"

  Ye Kaishan drew closer and closer.

  Three meters.

  Two meters.

  Oer.

  At that moment, Li Qinghai's hand suddenly lifted, revealing a Talisman!

  Fireball Talisman!!

  He spped the Fireball Talisman forward!

  Ye Kaishan's eyes widened, uo dodge in time.

  Boom!

  A fierce fireball struck Ye Kaishan, shattering the Spiritual Sword in his hand and sending his body flying backward.

  Thud!

  Ye Kaishan nded heavily on the ground, his body charred and twitg. Li Qinghai wasn't sure if Ye Kaishan was dead. As a transmigrator, Li Qinghai uood deeply that an enemy not thhly dead must be finished off!

  He approached Ye Kaishan, taking a look. Ye Kaishan's eyes were wide open, his chest slightly heaving, clearly ging to the st thread of life.

  Li Qinghai shrugged ily, "I told you not to push me. I really had a powerful trump card! Now look, you wasted my trump card, and you 't survive. Why did you have to push it?"

  Ye Kaishan's chest heaved violently, his eyes bulging as if they would pop out, clearly infuriated by Li Qinghai's words. Struggling to breathe, Ye Kaishan finally couldn't catch his breath and died on the spot.
