I Just Want To Slack off In Cultivation-Chapter 20

It was just that without Fairy Li’s permission, Pei Ling did not dare to act in her name.

Indeed, Pei Hongnian said that Zheng Jingshan instructed him to get Pei Ling into the Deep Sea Sect through a voice transmission. However, Fairy Li had asked Pei Ling to master the Demonic Blood Malevolence Art within ten days before the ship arrived at the Dust Severing Square. If she did not intend to keep him in the sect, why did she only tell him then?

It meant that letting Pei Ling enter the sect was Fairy Li’s idea. However, letting Zheng Jingshan give the instruction was likely because she did not want to be associated with him on the surface.

Pei Ling did not dare to provoke Fairy Li’s anger at this time. He immediately said, “Senior Brother Zhou, you are mistaken. I come from a humble background. How can I be qualified to be familiar with Fairy Li? I’m just lucky that Senior Brother Zheng did not abandon me.”

“Junior Brother, why are you belittling yourself?” When Li Siguang heard this, his smile remained, and he said, “Everyone knows that Senior Brother Zheng has always been respectful to Fairy Li. When he’s outside, if not for Fairy Li’s permission, why would he dare to bring you back?”

“Perhaps this is because Fairy Li lived in my family’s guest house for a few days, so when Senior Brother Zheng brought me along, she did not mind?” Pei Ling denied. “But it was Senior Brother Zheng who instructed me to enter the sect.”

When Li Siguang heard this, his expression was slightly subtle. He suddenly pointed at the Life-Extinguishing Blade and said, “Junior Brother, doesn’t this blade seem a little familiar?”

Pei Ling did not hide it. “This was gifted to me by Senior Brother Zheng.”

“It’s indeed the Life-Extinguishing Blade!” Miao Cheng’an’s gaze kept drifting over just now. At this moment, he could not help but say, “Back then, Zheng Jingshan was known to be invincible in the outer sect. But we knew it was mainly because of the weapon he wielded. It’s known that this blade is incomparably sharp, and it’s also…”

Zhou Yi was even more direct as he said, “Junior Brother Pei, name a price. I want this saber!”

Pei Ling frowned. “I’m sorry, Senior Brother Zhou. It is a gift from Senior Brother Zheng, so it’s not convenient to sell it. Besides, I want to use it myself, and I don’t plan to sell it.”

“Zheng Jingshan?” After confirming that Pei Ling did not have any backing that they could not afford to offend, the three of them tore off their disguises. Miao Cheng’an laughed coldly. “If not for Fairy Li’s concern for her distant relative, would a piece of trash like him be able to hold on to the position of the Inner Sect Master?! For you to use him to suppress us is simply a joke!”

“While Senior Brother Zhou is kind-hearted and is willing to bid,”

As he spoke, he reached out to grab towards the saber and shouted, “Count yourself lucky that I fancy your saber too!”

Pei Ling quickly grabbed the Life-Extinguishing Blade and jumped back. He asked coldly, “You dare to ignore the sect rules?!”

“Sect rules?” The three of them looked at each other and burst out laughing. “The Holy Sect does have strict sect rules, but this place is remote. Even the patrolling disciples will only come here at noon or midnight. As long as we avoid these two timings, who cares if you’re willing to give us a saber?”

“No matter how strict the Holy Sect’s rules are, it’s still about evidence, and you have no proof. Now you’ve regretted gifting the knife. Don’t tell me you want us to return you? Haha, Junior Brother Pei, I didn’t expect you to be so naive.”

Miao Cheng’an spat on the ground in disdain. “What’s the point of telling him so much? When I saw this newcomer, I thought he had someone to rely on in the sect, just like ourselves. That way, we could become friends. But is this kind of lowly scum worthy of living with me?! Although I don’t know why he chose this place, since he’s here, he has to pay the price.”

He licked his lips, his gaze greedily sweeping over the pale blade. “This bastard doesn’t have much to take advantage of, but this blade is really not bad.”

Damn it!

Pei Ling finally understood the male disciple’s malicious intentions. He thought that the other party had found a good place for him to stay, but it turned out that he was intentionally sending him to these three people.

He tightened his grip on the Life-Extinguishing Blade and threatened, “Even if Senior Brother Zheng’s strength is lacking in the inner sect, he is still Fairy Li’s distant relative. Fairy Li did not forget to bring him along when she went out to do her missions. Since you guys look down on Senior Brother Zheng like this, aren’t you afraid that he will report it to Fairy Li and she will not let you off?!”

“Do you even understand Fairy Li’s identity?” Zhou Yi looked up at the sky and laughed. A complicated look flashed in his eyes, but he continued, “Haven’t you noticed that us outer sect disciples call an inner sect disciple like Zheng Jingshan as our senior brother? Even for faction masters, we call them Senior Brothers and Senior Sisters. Yet, why do we call core disciples fairies?

“That’s because, in the eyes of the Holy Sect, we outer sect disciples aren’t qualified to call core disciples as seniors.

“And in the eyes of the core disciples, the inner sect leader is not worth mentioning, much less us outer sects.

“Your surname is Pei. You must be in the same family as Zheng Jingshan’s dog in the outer sect, Pei Hongnian?

“Go and find out later when did Fairy Li ever care about Pei Hongnian’s life or death!”

With that said, he formed hand seals with both hands. Bronze rust-colored patterns surfaced on his cheeks and the back of his hand, quickly enveloping his entire body. His pupils also emitted a faint green.

In the next moment, he jumped up and punched toward Pei Ling’s head with both fists.

Zhou Yi intended to kill?! free𝚠𝚎𝚋𝒏𝚘ѵ𝐞l.𝑐oｍ

Pei Ling’s heart sank. He thought of the sect rules that he had just finished reading and immediately understood. These three people had good family backgrounds, and so they could afford the fine. From their attitudes, the Life-Extinguishing Blade was clearly not cheap, and it might even be priceless.

In that case, it was worth it to pay a fine after killing him.

With this thought, Pei Ling’s saber was hacking towards Zhou Yi’s arm, but it switched directions instantly and headed for his neck.

After all, at the moment of life and death, who could care about the sect’s rules?

“Bastard!” Zhou Yi and the other two were shocked. It was not the first time they had conspired to plunder their fellow disciples with their family backgrounds and cultivation levels, so they had gained a lot of experience.

Although they were not afraid of the sect’s rules, they were unwilling to kill anyone. After all, the penalty for killing someone from the same sect was too high. Even if they could afford it, why should they hand over the money to the sect?

However, from their experience, it was easier to force the victim to submit by showing a murderous intent. Afterward, it was more convenient to take anything valuable. Also, the victims would often not dare to take revenge or report them in fear of losing their lives.

Who knew that Pei Ling was a vicious person who seemed honest when he answered every question they asked?

Zhou Yi hurriedly dodged. Although his Green Ghost Battle Body had reached the point where it was invulnerable to sabers, it still depended on what kind of saber it was. The Life-Extinguishing Blade was the weapon that Zheng Jingshan used to become well-known in the outer sect. He did not dare to take the hit head-on.

“He doesn’t have any saber skills!” Right at this moment, Li Siguang, who was the best at observing among the three, suddenly reminded them. “In that case, beat the Life-Extinguishing Blade away!”

Pei Ling’s heart sank when he heard this. The rules of the Deep Sea Sect were too long, and he had spent too much time reading it. He did not have time to cultivate the Blood Malevolence Saber Art before the three arrived. Otherwise, he would not be randomly hacking at this moment.

Just as Li Siguang’s voice rang, Miao Cheng’an had already formed hand seals, muttering under his breath. A black Qi blade instantly condensed in front of him, and with a flash, it sliced towards Pei Ling’s arm that held the saber.

Pei Ling did not have the time to dodge. He could only raise his weapon and slash diagonally with the Life-Extinguishing Blade. Although he could destroy the Qi Blade, the blade shook violently under the effect of the Qi Blade..
