Chapter 109: Chapter 109: Cutting Thoughts, Slaying Demons, Severing Karma
“Brother Shaoyuan is someone with really good luck,”

рlease,reading On ΒΟXΝOVEL.ϹʘM

Lv Defang didn’t notice Wang Chen’s look and seemed to fall into his memories, “Ever since I met him, his luck has always been good.”

Wang Shaoyuan was born a mortal.

As a mere human, he traveled tens of thousands of miles to the realm of immortal cultivation. Aside from his own strength, luck was indispensable.

Later, Wang Shaoyuan entered the path through martial arts and advanced to a Qi cultivation cultivator, becoming a disciple of the Cloud Sun Sect’s Outer Sect.

He left his peers far behind.

Lv Defang got to know Wang Shaoyuan when he was insignificant and witnessed the latter’s growth step by step!

In Lv Defang’s view, his friend’s luck was truly very good.

Almost too good.

When everyone teamed up for a hunt, others often ran into trouble, either getting injured or losing their lives.

Wang Shaoyuan was always safe and sound.

And he always had a good haul.

He even bought a house in the city, got married, had children, and truly settled down.

That’s a house in Cloud Mountain City!

Like all bottom-tier cultivators, Lv Defang could only dream of owning one.

Although Wang Shaoyuan’s wife later died of illness, Lv Defang thought that was nothing.

With a house in the city, who would fear not being able to marry a beautiful wife?

But Wang Shaoyuan didn’t remarry.

Lv Defang thought he was being sentimental.

(vitag.Init = window.vitag.Init || []).push(function(){viAPItag.display(“vi_765923973”)})

What truly caused Lv Defang to harbor a great grievance against Wang Shaoyuan was their shared experience of exploring a secret realm deep in the Heaven Cloud Mountain range.

“At that time, there were nine of us.”

As Lv Defang spoke, his expression became extremely dark, “In the end, only he and I came out alive!”

“He was unharmed, while I was seriously injured and even lost my storage bag.”

“I only picked up a useless broken net!”

“But I know.”

The cultivator at the Great Perfection of Qi Cultivation stared intently at Wang Chen, his eyes filled with rage and bitterness, “Wang Shaoyuan must have obtained an amazing treasure; I know him too well.”

“Yet, when I asked him about it, he just brushed me off, treating me like a fool!”

“Huh.”

“How unjust the heavens are!”

His roar echoed in the great hall, striking forcefully against Wang Chen’s eardrums.

Murderous intent was evident!

(vitag.Init = window.vitag.Init || []).push(function(){viAPItag.display(“vi_765923973”)})

But Lv Defang did not immediately take action because he hadn’t finished speaking.

“Fortunately, no one can be lucky forever.”

“That year, you suddenly fell seriously ill, damaging both your foundation and lifespan.”

“To save you, he went in search of that secret realm again.”

“And you know what happened.”

“Ha!”

“The heavens do open their eyes sometimes.”

Upon hearing this, Wang Chen couldn’t help but ask, “Is this your reason for wanting to kill me?”

“Of course not.”

Lv Defang explained patiently, “I suspect that before he left, Wang Shaoyuan entrusted that treasure to you. I’ve searched and investigated, wrung out everything you know, but found nothing at all.”

“But I’ve always believed that the treasure must be here!”

“Do you know?”

(vitag.Init = window.vitag.Init || []).push(function(){viAPItag.display(“vi_765923973”)})

“This matter has become my inner demon.”

“Without resolving it, my thoughts cannot reach coherence, and I won’t be able to break through and form my Breakthrough Mansion.”

“Killing you is to vanquish my inner demon!”

Wang Chen is Wang Shaoyuan’s only offspring left in the world, and as long as Wang Chen dies, all of Lv Defang’s resentment, obsessions, and karmic entanglements with Wang Shaoyuan would be completely severed.

Wang Chen asked in a serious tone, “Then why wait until now?”

“Your father was very clever,”

Lv Defang answered, “He anticipated he might encounter trouble, so before he left, he entrusted you to my care.”

“And then he made an oath in the main hall that as soon as his Soul Tablet shattered, the house in Cloud Mountain City would belong to me.”

“But the condition was that I had to take care of you until you turned eighteen, otherwise the property couldn’t be transferred!”

Wang Chen suddenly realized.

Some cultivators who often adventure and practice outside would make such oaths in their sects to prevent their inheritance from being usurped after death, leaving their belongings to a designated person.

However, drawing up such an oath required a large amount of Merit Points, which most people couldn’t afford.

(vitag.Init = window.vitag.Init || []).push(function(){viAPItag.display(“vi_765923973”)})

This oath undoubtedly hit Lv Defang’s weak spot!

“Your father was really clever!”

Lv Defang exclaimed, “He had me arrange for you to cultivate the Spirit Fields outside the city because your Root Bone talent was too poor and you were too dumb, with no future in cultivation. It’s better for you to live a stable life as a Spiritual Plant Farmer!”

“So I did as he wished and had Old Sun look after you.”

“Do you understand now?”

Wang Chen took a deep breath, “I understand!”

“So that means, last year, it wasn’t you who ordered someone to recruit me into the Night Patrol Team, was it?”

Lv Defang was taken aback, “How could I do such a thing!”

At that time, Wang Chen was not yet eighteen years old.

If anything happened, according to the oath, the house in the city would no longer belong to him.

Clearly, someone else was behind this!

“One last question.”

(vitag.Init = window.vitag.Init || []).push(function(){viAPItag.display(“vi_765923973”)})

Wang Chen decisively suppressed the new doubts that had just arisen in his heart and said, “Those two disciples from the Punishment Hall were always under your command, weren’t they? If I hadn’t run away today and had been taken by them, what would have happened?”

The question wasn’t really that meaningful.

But he wanted to delay a little longer.

By this time, Lv Defang’s killing intent was almost unstoppable!

“What would have happened?”

Lv Defang laughed, “The result would have definitely saved me the trouble, but unfortunately you didn’t follow my plan. No matter, now I have to personally take care of sending you on your way.”

“To be honest, I really underestimated you.”

He looked at Wang Chen, his fair complexion showing a trace of Evil Qi, “I was actually fooled by you before.”

“But now, regardless of what tricks you have up your sleeve, the result is predetermined.”

“Because in this world, strength dictates everything!”

As soon as he had finished speaking, Lv Defang suddenly raised his right palm and struck toward Wang Chen from across the space, “Die!”

He had said everything he wanted, his chest now cleared of the load, and his mind mostly unblocked.

Killing Wang Chen would completely eliminate his Heart Demon.

And establish the foundation for his Breakthrough Mansion!

Inside the grand temple hall, the wind and clouds suddenly changed.

An enormous translucent hand materialized out of nowhere, carrying overwhelming power, descending toward Wang Chen’s head like a mountain collapsing, aiming to crush him into powder!

Almost at the same time, Wang Chen instantly released ten Meteor Fire Talismans.

Lv Defang wanted to take his life to eliminate his Heart Demon.

Quite coincidentally, Wang Chen also needed the other’s head to liberate his own Heart Demon.

Tonight, in this place, only one person would leave alive!

In fact, Wang Chen could have run away today after realizing Lv Defang’s conspiracy.

He could have fled to the Outer Domain and hidden far away to avoid the threat of this Complete Qi Cultivation cultivator.

But Wang Chen had diligently practiced hard, steadily building up his strength and increasing his trump cards.

Not so he could run away more effectively when facing an enemy!

When it’s time to lay low, lay low. When it’s time to be brave, be brave!

This battle was Wang Chen’s destined confrontation, inheriting the cause and effect of the original owner of his body, and he had to face it head-on.

If he ran without fighting,

there would always be a shadow in his heart.

Who knows when, during the process of cultivation, he might suddenly perish because of it!

So…

Let the battle begin!
