Gou Zai Yao Wu Simulated Immortal

The idle cultivators who usually lay lazily in front of their stalls were now whispering among themselves.

Someone's face turned red, and spittle flew from his mouth: "I heard it with my own ears!"

A diviner, having glimpsed the secrets of heaven through the foundation-building divination, said that a year later, a wondrous treasure of heaven and earth would surely be born on Mount Lei Ze!

At that moment, a voice came from somewhere, sneering and mocking: "Hmph! A wonder of heaven and earth? I think it's more like a catastrophe for heaven and earth."

In previous years, which unusual event didn't result in the deaths of rogue cultivators before the discovery of extraordinary treasures?

In my opinion, we should pack our things as soon as possible and run as far away as we can.

For a time, opinions were divided, and the rumors became increasingly fantastical.

Standing by the crowd, Li Qian inwardly grumbled, "Why do I always run into this kind of scene every time I leave Danxiang Tower?"

"Could it be that this place has some kind of special scene dialogue trigger?"

But despite his complaints, he already had a plan in mind.

A year later, a rare treasure appeared in Leize Mountain.

One should not act rashly if one's true identity is the mastermind behind the Soul-Devouring Sword.

Next time we hold a simulation, we might as well try it out here in True Spirit Continent and see how much our cultivation can be improved.

We also need to ask the Artifact Pavilion about the snakeskin armor to see if it's worth getting.

……

Puyuan County in the south, Siyi Office.

Zhou Lan was so worried that her head was throbbing.

Yesterday, the entire group collapsed on the edge of the white reed marshes.

After he regained his mobility, he found that the soldiers were still unconscious on the spot, and Xue Duan's men were laughing lewdly.

Li Qian fainted beside the horse.

He looks more like a rich young master who has suffered a misfortune than anyone else.

This actually caught Zhou Lan off guard.

Could it be... that I was hallucinating last night?

In fact, another expert secretly struck, killing the group of fox demons and rescuing them in the process.

But all I cared about was the Li family, and I cared about them too much.

Did I remember the young master's voice so clearly, thinking about it day and night, that's why I misheard it?

The thought itself seemed absurd, even to Zhou Lan herself.

But if that's not the case, then how should we explain it?

The fox corpses were all gone, leaving only a mess on the ground.

The more Zhou Lan thought about it, the more bizarre it seemed.

Once the logic was broken and one was freed from their thoughts, they began to notice the situation in the office.

A group of officers were standing in front of him, talking animatedly about what had happened the night before, their voices rising higher and higher.

He claimed that his boss could withstand the aphrodisiac, possessed unparalleled martial arts skills, and that all the seductive foxes had been killed.

They just want their boss to let them see the true form of the demon.

Zhou Lan frowned.

The tangled mess was made even more chaotic by the noise.

Just as he was about to slam his fist on the table and yell at someone, a servant came running in from outside.

He whispered, "Officer Zhou, Young Master Li has arrived. He says he has something to say to you privately."

Zhou Lan's heart suddenly skipped a beat.

With a stern face, he drove the soldiers out.

She then steadied herself in front of the mirror and ushered Li Qian into the side room.

Young Master Li was still dressed like a wealthy young master, and his face still looked somewhat shaken.

Zhou Lan saw that he placed a small paper package on the table.

Young Master Li laughed and said, "Yesterday was truly dangerous. I was hit by that demonic mist and my head was spinning. I can't remember many things afterward."

"I wonder which brave man has solved the fox problem? I hope that brave man will accept this gift."

coming!

Zhou Lan was still trying to comfort herself.

Now that the other party had asked that question, most of his remaining hope dissipated.

The Li family must have a very deep plan!

Even the fact that his own soul was abnormal, a mere flag officer, was clearly detected!

The fact that no one was sent to deal with him was probably part of the Li family's plan.

Is this telling me it's time to make a choice?!

Li Qian, sitting in front of Zhou Lan, watched him struggle with his inner turmoil and found it all very strange.

He sent that snakeskin soft armor to the Qiming Pavilion for inquiry.

It would have been better not to ask, because asking only brings heartache.

To re-infuse the spirit array, at least eight low-grade spirit stones would be needed.

However, the fact that he could obtain a mid-grade first-tier protective magic artifact made Li Qian's heart pound.

So I came here to make a show of it last night, and also to do someone a favor.

Ask Zhou Lan to show him how to formally join the Demon Slayer Division and obtain the cultivation techniques.

At the very least, we need to obtain information about the demons so we can plan how to kill them and exchange them for spirit stones.

For this reason, Li Qian even spent two spirit grains to buy two miscellaneous blood-cleansing pills so that Zhou Lan could taste the benefits.

But this week, the flag officer looked constipated, as if he wanted to urinate but couldn't.

Could it be that I arrived at the wrong time and disturbed him while he was using the restroom?

Zhou Lan's expression relaxed, and the sense of imperial righteousness and departmental rules that had been weighing on her mind faded away.

He has elderly parents to support and young children to raise, and he hasn't yet amassed enough wealth.

The newly acquired concubine from a few days ago hasn't even had a chance to be intimate with him much yet.

At this critical juncture, why show off your backbone and send yourself into a dead end? That would be truly foolish.

The moment I thought of joining Li, I suddenly felt the world had expanded.

He reached out and carefully put the small paper package away.

Lowering his voice, he solemnly said, "The valiant man that Young Master Li spoke of is none other than myself."

"I was born with a slightly stronger spirit and was not completely affected by the demonic mist. I managed to fight back and kill all those fox cubs."

"Later, despite his own injuries, he severely wounded that vixen."

"It's a pity that the witch launched a counterattack before she died, taking several corpses with her, which is why the scene became so chaotic."

He spoke in a measured and methodical manner, with just the right pauses.

Li Qian couldn't help but gasp.

This week, Lan really has a sharp mind.

Driven by greed for money and recognition, they can fabricate such eloquent stories.

Even he, the one who actually carried out the deed, almost believed it.

But this is naturally a good thing for him.

Now that Zhou Lan was willing to take on the matter and extricate himself from the situation, he was happy to go along with it.

Li Qian then showed gratitude, as if he had finally been relieved: "I see."

"I knew it, Zhou Qiguan was no ordinary person."

I used to think that with my home as a shelter, no matter how chaotic things were outside, they wouldn't affect me.

After last night's perilous experience, I feel even more strongly that having martial arts skills is the right path.

"Is the Demon Slayer Division's martial arts unknown?"

Hearing the praise, Zhou Lan felt a surge of warmth in her heart; it seemed she had made the right choice!

He quickly replied modestly, "Young Master Li, you flatter me. I was merely lucky. My martial arts skills are certainly not a problem..."

At this point, he paused slightly, "But... it's not easy to fool Officer Xue..."

The meaning couldn't be clearer.

Li Qian understood.

If you want to enter the Demon Slaying Division to learn some skills, I'm afraid a recommendation from just one flag officer won't be enough.

What I fear most is never asking for money, but not even having the means to give it away.

Now that Zhou Lan had already conveyed the message, he naturally wouldn't pretend not to understand.

So Li Qian flipped his sleeve and took out a small handful of golden scales, about seven or eight pieces.

Then he gently pushed a small porcelain bottle towards him: "Thanks to the brothers' protection yesterday."

"I'll leave the rest to Officer Zhou."

"These pills and odds and ends are not worth much money, just to calm the brothers' nerves."

Zhou Lan's eyelids twitched suddenly.

"Am I supposed to handle Xue Duan's situation myself? Is this a test of my abilities?"

He, Zhou Lan, dared not bully his superiors.

But concealing such a thing is something they are extremely familiar with.

Without hesitation, he accepted both the golden scales and the pill bottle.

He cupped his hands and said in a deep voice, "Young Master Li, rest assured."

"I will arrange everything for you perfectly, so that no one will have the slightest suspicion."

Upon seeing this, Li Qian smiled broadly.

This week's flag officer is on track!

The way he refers to himself is strange; sometimes he calls himself "this humble official" and sometimes "this lowly person."

He hasn't even joined the Demon Slayer Division yet, and he hasn't even climbed above him, but he's already so self-aware?
