Diligence System: From Servant to Martial King-Chapter 369 - 280: Seizing Victory, Winning Beauty, Poison Flower Daoist, Candle Sect Recruitment?

Chapter 369: Chapter 280: Seizing Victory, Winning Beauty, Poison Flower Daoist, Candle Sect Recruitment?

Hao Qingshe said, "My disciple inherits my legacy. If she cannot kill someone, I would reprimand her. My disciple won fair and square, and if they died, so be it. If they dare to pursue this further, I will send them on their way again. Isn’t that easy?"

Yan Hao’s face turned ashen. Ye Cheng said, "Though your disciple is formidable, in martial contests, the situation changes in an instant. She won honorably, and even if she loses, it is also honorable."

Hao Qingshe laughed sinisterly, "Not necessarily."

Ye Cheng said, "We all witnessed it with our own eyes. Is Miss Hao implying we are biased?"

Hao Qingshe said, "Elder Ye... your tongue is indeed silver. But I’m not here to argue with you. To surpass my disciple, he must have used some deceitful method. I don’t need to see it to know. Even if you see it, you wouldn’t understand. Can you even compare with me in the art of poison?"

Ye Cheng’s face twitched, finding such fallacious arguments hard to refute. Hao Qingshe continued, "Dear disciple... tell me, who used despicable means to harm you?" Zeng Xiaoke pointed to Li Xian and said, "Master, it’s this thief. I was about to win when he suddenly used a secret trick. I hope Master will punish him severely and grant me justice."

Hao Qingshe said with interest, "So it’s you, little thief. Though you claimed victory, now that the truth is out, your life is forfeited, how pitiful."

Li Xian frowned deeply. Yan Hao said in a serious tone, "Hao Qingshe... stop being so unreasonable. We, Flower Cage Sect, organized this event, and this person already won. If you kill him, won’t we become a laughingstock?"

Hao Qingshe laughed, "Of course you’d be a laughingstock. Hahaha, and if I find it amusing, what will you do?" With that, she waved her sleeve, sending a cloud of pale blue poisonous mist.

Yan Hao’s face turned dark. Elder Liu Yu and Envoy Jin Shichang remained silent, but they were displeased with Hao Qingshe.

Li Xian felt a deep sense of crisis. Knowing Hao Qingshe’s intimidating presence would not allow him to speak further. Facing a formidable enemy, he remained calm despite the danger.

Seeing the poisonous mist approaching, he contemplated a way to escape. The mist appeared slow but was actually fast. Before he could devise a complete strategy, it began to envelop him. For now, he had to put aside escape and focus on confronting this attack.

He spat blood mist, intending to use blood fire to burn the poisonous mist. However, the mist cleverly swallowed all the blood fire.

Hao Qingshe laughed, "So this is the trick that burned my disciple’s skin. But it is useless against me, just accept your fate." It’s clear Zeng Xiaoke lost fairly.

"This poisonous mist is called ’Bone-Eroding Heart and Brain Incense.’ It corrodes flesh but has healing effects solely on the heart and brain. It erodes and purifies, leaving only the heart and consciousness. At that point, I will refine you thoroughly."

Shi Yufei rose and said, "Qingshe, enough! Withdraw the mist."

Hao Qingshe toyed with a poisonous snake at her fingertips and said leisurely, "Grand Envoy... you have no authority to command me."

Shi Yufei said, "I will be responsible for your disciple’s injuries. I quite like this person, please give me some face."

Hao Qingshe appeared indifferent, as if she couldn’t hear, and said, "I will not give you face, so what?" Meng Han thought to himself, "Even the Grand Envoy seems to favor this person. It seems my decision was right. If this person survives, wouldn’t he become influential in the future?"

Feeling secretly pleased.

Shi Yufei said, "Will you not stop?" He leaped, attempting to take Li Xian off the stage. Hao Qingshe raised her hand, and the speed of the poisonous mist suddenly increased, enveloping the stage before Shi Yufei could.

Shi Yufei’s face changed dramatically. Seeing the dense fog surrounding, even he found it difficult to break through. Given the circumstances, it seemed Li Xian wouldn’t survive. Despite regret, he was helpless.

Shi Yufei angrily shouted, "Hao Qingshe! Why are you like this?!"

Hao Qingshe giggled, "Grand Envoy Shi... would you really be angry over a dead person? We have such a long-standing friendship, you’re really breaking my heart."

She had a strange temperament, randomly killing people was nothing unusual.

Shi Yufei said, "You!"

Hao Qingshe said, "Alright, since the event is over, we can always have another contest, what’s the big deal? In half an hour, this guy will be corroded to only his heart and brain. I’ll take him back for further refinement."

"Whose disciple is this? I do apologize. If you want compensation, there isn’t any."

Ye Cheng’s face was ashen. Though having little connection with Li Xian, he felt very angry.

Shi Yufei saw the disciples around in utter terror. His intention for hosting the event was to gather students. Now, the effort seemed wasted.

Shi Yufei sighed, "For him to end up like this is the utmost tragedy. I need to give him a swift end. I can’t let you humiliate him further."

Hao Qingshe lightly flicked her sleeve, "Well, well... the Grand Envoy has spoken, I can’t ignore it, so I’ll let you handle it. But remember, the others weren’t killed by me, don’t blame that on me."

Just as she was speaking, her expression suddenly changed. She saw the poisonous mist dissolve rapidly, a mass of extremely pure energy repelling the mist. But Li Xian was unharmed, surrounded by spiraling clear energy.

In the mist, Li Xian appeared shrouded in a white, ethereal cloak. Surrounded by various supernatural phenomena, he resembled a Divine Being. His long hair flowed, his handsome face flawless.

It turned out...

Li Xian had long prepared a countermeasure. He gathered the three flowers, refining the energy and circling pure energy around him. Using "Pure Gang Qi Clothing," he enveloped himself in pure energy. In this way, he enclosed the pure energy within a muddied cloak, causing the energy to linger without dispersing.

The two complemented each other.

Surrounded by these supernatural phenomena, he appeared like an Immortal. The energy circling his body did not dissipate, subtly creating a boundary of purity within the impure, revealing the profound mysteries of heaven and earth in such proximity.

No matter how strong the poisonous mist, it couldn’t touch him!

Ye Cheng and Shi Yufei were both shocked and delighted. Hao Qingshe furrowed her brows, her smile fading, staring intently. Shi Yufei laughed, "Ha... Hua Wucuo, you still had this trick up your sleeve?!"
