The Villain Has Something to Say

Chapter 103: I Want to Travel with You (I)

Translator: Storm in a Teacup

Although Luo Jianqing had told Xuan Lingzi about their story written in Seeking Immorality, he hadn’t said anything about his reincarnation, not because he didn’t believe Xuan Lingzi but he simply didn’t want to put more burden on his master.

Until now, he had read three series of Seeking Immorality. He only knew Xuan Lingzi gave the Xuan Ling sword to Li Xiuchen and ordered him to take Luo Jianqing back. Luo Jianqing didn’t want Xuan Lingzi to know that Xuan Ling sword actually pierced through his disciple’s heart. These were all the messes in his previous life. Now since he and Xuan Lingzi had reunited, it was not necessary to mention those things again, which could only foment feelings of estrangement between them.

Besides, that book wrote that back in Wan Shou Mountian Li Xiuchen had obtained a powerful instrument that could disconnect Xuan Ling sword with Xuan Lingzi. Xuan Ling sword couldn’t kill Luo Jianqing itself, as it was connected and controlled by Xuan Lingzi no matter how far it was, and that’s why Luo Jianqing was convinced that Li Xiuchen hadn’t stollen it.

Since Xuan Lingzi had nothing to do with Luo Jianqing’s death, there was no need to pursue this topic. For Luo Jianqing, the only thing that mattered was to kill Li Xiuchen.

He had once attempted to kill him but failed in Sir Bei Dou’s tomb. The law of nature didn’t allow him to do that, but he had to avenge the death of his two fellow brothers. He was desperate to tear Li Xiuchen into pieces.

You wanted to seize your karma, that’s fine, but why did you get others killed?

You finally got your karma, but Luo Jianqing’s two fellow brothers didn’t benefit from it. On the contrary, they were attacked and died because of you!

Li Xiuchen, would you feel ashamed and guilty each time you improved your realm with those karmas?

Under the warm sunlight, the cultivator in blue looked cold and stern. The lotus sword pattern between his eyebrows gave out overwhelming energy. The Floating Frost Sword started to rumble from the pattern. It had heard the call of its master. It was eager to fight with its master and slay that rotten, despicable person.

Seeing Luo Jianqing extremely furious, Xuan Lingzi slightly narrowed his eyes. In the end, he still sighed and said, “Li Xiuchen was the main character in that book. Jianqing, you told me that you had tried several times to kill Li Xiuchen but all failed somehow. Have you ever thought that it was the law of nature that was stopping you from killing him?”

Luo Jianqing said, “But what if I anticipate all the possibilities and avoid all the accidents? What if I’m thousands or even millions of times more powerful than him? I don’t believe that he can always escape my attack!”

Xuan Lingzi was cold and indifferent. He silently raised his head and gazed at the boundless sky.

“No matter how powerful you are, the law of nature will come and stop you anyway.”

Luo Jianqing was baffled by this sentence.

Xuan Lingzi continued, “When you reach higher realm, you will find that the law of nature is actually conscious. Its consciousness may be far less visible than that of ordinary people, but it exists indeed. It may be partial to some so-called main characters, creating various fortunes for them. So, if you want to kill Li Xiuchen and really come up with a perfect killing plan, the thunder of heaven will fall and stop your attack.”

Luo Jianqing clutched his fists and said unwillingly, “Then there is no way to kill him?”

Xuan Lingzi fixed his eyes on him, “Of course there is. You become the nature; you govern the Heaven!”

Luo Jianqing froze. He was kind of familiar with this sentence. Then he remembered that Mo Qiu had said this before.

Xuan Lingzi said, “Why does nature have to run this way? If you are powerful enough, if you can penetrate the origin and essence of the law of nature, why can’t you change this law and make the law serve you? We are all seeking for deity, but on the path, countless people die as they try to capture the law of nature and thus can never see the truth. They don’t understand that the true cultivation is to cultivate ourselves. Jianqing, I have told you for years that the most tangible strength is a powerful self, do you know it now?”

Xuan Lingzi’s words were so powerful that they were hitting Luo Jianqing’s heart.

A blood-red jade tablet was running in Luo Jianqing’s body, giving out continuous power. The tablet was so weird that when Xuan Lingzi’s primordial life entered Luo Jianqing’s body, he didn’t even notice that tablet. Luo Jianqingk knew it was the power of Nine Heavenly Seizure Record!

The ultimate realm of Nine Heavenly Seizure Record was to seize nature!

Since the law of nature stopped me from killing Li Xiuchen, since it was unfair to mortals, I would seize it and change everything!

Instantly, spiritual power ran vigorously in Luo Jianqing’s body. Seeing that, Xuan Lingzi was shocked. He shook out his sleeves and enchanted a ward for Luo Jianqing. Luo Jianqing sat cross-legged, with his hands quickly preceding the complex Hand Knack as a blurry figure. He grabbed the spiritual power from the Earth and Heaven avidly.

Nine Heavenly Seizure Record ran at high speed in his body.

Spiritual power flew constantly out of Luo Jianqing’s body. The power was like a roaring dragon, breaking the ward and swallowing other scattered spiritual powers. The power was so greedy and rampant, seizing other spiritual powers and squeezing them into Luo Jianqing’s body.

Surges of powers, like gushing flood and vast ocean, poured into Luo Jianqing’s body from his Heaven Spirit Acupoint.

A thick veil of blue light surrounded Luo Jianqing. As the power of Nine Heavenly Seizure Record gradually revealed, the invisible law of nature began to tremble around Xuan Lingzi’s house on the Yu Xiao Peak. Black clouds gathered overhead and the thunder of Heaven was about to fall, while Xuan Lingzi stamped his foot and snapped with cold eyes, “Get away!”

Those clouds hesitated for a while and finally vanished reluctantly.

Now, Luo Jianqing was sitting in the ward and absorbing spiritual powers, while Xuan Lingzi stood aside and protected him with one hand behind his back.

After 30 days, Luo Jianqing finally woke up and opened his eyes. A light flashed in his eyes and the atmosphere around him totally changed. Before this closed-door practice, he just finished the middle phase of Nascent Soul, but now he had skipped the late phase of Nascent Soul and was already halfway to Out-of-Body.

The four “seizures” in Nine Heavenly Seizure Record had been fully released in Luo Jianqing’s body and thus endowed him with overwhelming power.

As he finished his practice, Luo Jianqing pulled Xuan Lingzi closer and kissed him.

This unexpected intimacy made Xuan Lingzi’s body stiff and he didn’t give any response. Luo Jianqing also stopped here, not going further. He released Xuan Lingzi and said, “Master, now I have been halfway to Out-of-Body, 16 years earlier than you, so how many years can I save to reach Out-of-Body? And what about... Deity Transformation?

Luo Jianqing’s teasing chuckle resounded in Xu Lingzi’s ears, which reminded him of what Luo Jianqing had told him.

“If I reach Deity Transformation Period, will you treat me like this?”

When Luo Jianqing said that, he just reached Nascent Soul, but now, he almost finished his practice to Out-of-Body Period.

Undoubtedly, as time passed and the world changed, their relationship also became different. The moral and ritual blocks that separated them had been removed. But Luo Jianqing still liked to tease Xuan Lingzi with those provocative words. After all, in bed he didn’t have any advantage but in daily life, he could still enjoy the scene where Xuan Lingzi became shy for him.

Xuan Lingzi didn’t let Luo Jianqing down. Although Xuan Lingzi’s face was still cold and calm, his ears had already gone red. He threw away Luo Jianqing’s hand and scolded, “Reaching the middle phase of Out-of-Body Period doesn’t mean you can be complacent. You should practice harder in your cultivation!”

Just as Xuan Lingzi finished his words, Luo Jianqing immediately hugged him and asked, “You mean couple cultivation?”
