destiny eternal calamity

Chapter 18: Demons and Gods

It can't be... for love, can it?

Li Wei glanced at the concubine's trembling appearance.

The woman's willingness to stay and testify meant she was already destined to be drowned in a pig cage.

Xiao Shuying also transmitted her voice, saying, "This woman is really not worth it!"

What was originally just a simple prank has yielded unexpected results.

But this scene did not make her happy.

Seeing this situation, Li Wei realized that Li Ji had likely been exonerated.

That won't do.

He couldn't bear to see this woman die for Li Ji, while that guy went unpunished.

Li Wei observed for a moment and felt that his second aunt and the concubine wanted to exonerate Li Ji, but Li Lie and his cousin-in-law might not think so.

It could even be said that Li Ji ran away because he didn't trust them.

"Aunt Ying, do you have any way to get them to tell the truth?"

"Of course there's a way. And even if you hadn't asked, I would have taken action. I don't want to see such an unpleasant outcome."

As soon as she finished speaking, Xiao Shuying activated the eighth-level mental technique, Heavenly Demon Chaos.

With her current level of cultivation, she hadn't even grasped the basics of this mental cultivation method; she was merely relying on some special techniques to barely execute it.

It's like using a paper tiger as a real tiger to scare people.

But dealing with his cousin-in-law and Li Lie, two ordinary people, was far too much.

A mysterious power entered their minds from the void.

"Cousin-in-law, cousin, is that really true?" Li Wei asked the two of them, following Xiao Shuying's instructions.

"No, it was my brother, it was my brother who killed Father!"

Under the influence of the Heavenly Demon and the Chaos Gods, Li Lie had absolutely no intention of lying.

Moreover, this was exactly what he wanted to accuse; the Heavenly Demon Chaos was merely guiding him to say what he wanted to say.

"It's Li Ji. He was born to have an affair with this bitch. His father-in-law found out, then beat him to death, and made us lie for him!"

My cousin's wife also tearfully recounted her accusations.

The onlookers around were all sighing in amazement; this was too sweet a story.

This ethical drama is so captivating that I'm afraid the storyteller will have to start a new script for it tomorrow.

My aunt slumped to the ground as if her bones had been removed.

"Why are you trying to harm my stepson? If he gets arrested, our Li family is finished..."

"That old geezer can't even pay my taxes, yet he insists on marrying a young woman. He'd be better off dead!"

"Waaah, my stepson, you must run far away! This house can't tolerate you! My poor child!"

Li Wei was utterly speechless.

This second aunt really dotes on Li Ji, and has long wished for Li Anshun to die.

My second uncle is a real clown. His wife doesn't love him and wants him dead. His concubine is having an affair with his son and is eventually killed by his son.

Seeing that the surrounding crowd was pointing and whispering about the second aunt, and that someone was about to come up and beat her, the constables quickly dispersed the crowd.

If this causes a riot, they will be held very guilty.

"Let's send my second uncle to my place to lay his body in state and prepare for his funeral," Li Wei said to Li Lie.

Although I dislike my second uncle, I must respect the deceased and, as a relative, put on a show out of both courtesy and reason.

Li Lie sniffed, said nothing, and silently dragged the cart where his father's body was placed away from there.

The constables did not stop Li Lie, but took his concubine away, and his cousin's wife followed as a witness.

Only the second aunt remained at the scene.

The woman suddenly glared fiercely at Li Wei.

"It was you! You must be trying to harm my stepson!"

Li Wei frowned. This matter was indeed related to him, but thank goodness, it was originally just a prank by Xiao Shuying.

He didn't even ask Aunt Ying to deal with Second Uncle at the time.

Moreover, according to Xiao Shuying, this love potion is extremely magical.

It wouldn't activate unless both people under the influence of the poison simultaneously experience intense desire.

The fact that the concubine and Li Jineng fell for it so quickly suggests that they had been having an affair for some time.

The fact that Li Ji beat his own father to death was completely unexpected, which only proves that Li Ji is an incorrigible scumbag.

As for why he asked Xiao Shuying to help him interrogate him about the truth, it was entirely out of disgust for Li Ji, that scumbag.

It can be said that he stood on the side of justice from beginning to end.

As the saying goes, my heart and actions are as clear as a mirror, and all my deeds are for the sake of justice.

The woman is now accusing him simply because she already harbored hatred towards Li Wei.

Moreover, she felt that it was because of Li Wei's questioning that Li Ji's evil deeds were exposed and he became a guilty person.

Li Wei was too lazy to argue with this shrew and turned back to the Li residence.

"Aunt Ying, didn't you say that the love potion only works when two people are truly in love?"

"That's right."

"So Li Ji actually loved that woman, but he chose to have her help him commit perjury and ran away."

"Men are just so heartless." Xiao Shuying's voice carried a hint of coldness.

"I would never do that," Li Wei quickly defended himself.

Upon returning to the Li residence, they found no sign of Li Lie. The boy had apparently run off somewhere, dragging his father's body with him.

Li Wei isn't a saint, and he's too lazy to care about all that.

This family had no good intentions towards him, and he was already being extremely kind by allowing Li Lie to bring the body to the Li residence for a temporary rest.

If you don't appreciate it, then forget it.

The two Kunlun School disciples have returned and are practicing their skills in the courtyard.

In front of them, Li Wei also began to work hard to increase his score.

Anyway, neither of them knew Li Wei's previous martial arts level, so they wouldn't reveal anything.

[Ding! 180 recharge points (10% discount) have been deducted, and you have learned the second-tier skill "Pulse Grasping Technique" to the beginner level!]

[Ding! 180 recharge points (10% discount) have been deducted, and you have learned the second-tier skill "Eternal Spring Finger" to the beginner level!]

[Ding! 180 recharge points (10% discount) have been deducted, and the second-tier skill "Free and Unfettered Sword Technique" has been learned to the beginner level!]

Li Wei felt that he needed another day to settle down and practice the Five Steps Plum Blossom Stakes, so he decided to learn the basics of the remaining techniques today.

Instantly, memories containing insights from the initial stages of these techniques appeared in Li Wei's mind, and he practiced them in his mind again and again.

Li Wei then demonstrated the three techniques one by one.

When you first learn any martial art, your meridians will be opened.

The Bladder Meridian of Foot Taiyang, the Heart Meridian of Hand Shaoyin, the Governing Vessel, and the Belt Meridian.

At this point, Li Wei had opened up nine of the twelve meridians and eight extraordinary meridians.

The medicinal power of the Meridian Opening Pill was also continuously expanding his meridians.

The Kunlun Sect disciples were completely confused, assuming that the young man was only at the beginner level in the various martial arts techniques he was practicing.

He's obviously a newbie.

Xiao Shuying, who was hidden nearby, was shocked by the routine but was no longer surprised.

Li Wei felt stronger than ever before, thanks to the support of six second-tier cultivation techniques.

Mountain-Shattering Thunder Hand, Five-Step Plum Blossom Stakes, Pulse-Grabbing Skill, Everlasting Spring Finger, Six Harmonies Knife Technique, Free and Unfettered Sword Technique.

Every martial art has its own special effects. For example, the Mountain-Shattering Thunder Hand can enhance the practitioner's arm strength.

The original first-level perfected Mountain-Shattering Thunder Hand could increase the arm strength of a Body Tempering Realm martial artist by 50% (approximately over a thousand jin).

The second-tier Mountain-Shattering Thunder Hand, after being upgraded by the system and reaching its perfect state, can increase the arm strength of a martial artist in the Meridian Opening Realm by 50% (approximately tens of thousands of jin).

This effect is permanent; it doesn't mean it only takes effect when the practitioner uses their internal energy to unleash the Mountain-Shattering Thunder Hand technique.

It can be said that the special effects added to these martial arts techniques are extremely outrageous.

This is also the main reason why Li Wei felt that the martial arts in this world were completely incomparable to those in the martial arts novels of his previous life.
