"The situation is turning grim," one said.

"Hasn't it always been like this?" came the reply.

Chapter 331 A Hundred Years of Cultivation to Share a Boat

"What are the specific tasks?" Li Changzhou took a sip of spring water from his sister's cave, trying to calm himself down after a series of exciting events.

“It makes me angry just thinking about it,” Li Qianxia said. “They want me to kill Guanyin!”

Li Changzhou's pressure did not lessen because the two had the same goal; on the contrary, he became even more worried.

If only one player killed Guanyin, it proves that either the difference between Earth Immortals and Human Immortals isn't that big, or there's something wrong with Guanyin.

Li Qianxia's current target is also Guanyin, which indicates that the mission is extremely dangerous.

“I killed the monk Ji Gong,” Yang Qinglan said.

“This game is truly inhumane,” Li Qianxia sighed. “Bodhisattva Guanyin and Ji Gong are both good bodhisattvas and good arhats.”

“A single activity in the Value Game could wipe out more than 60% of life on dozens of planets. Do you think she would care whether two Bodhisattvas or Arhats on Earth are good or bad?” Li Changzhou asked her.

“I understand, and I won’t show any mercy,” Li Qianxia said. “I just hope that good people will be rewarded.”

Although she wanted to be a hot girl, she was kind and gentle at heart. Li Changzhou flicked her forehead.

"And you?" Yang Qinglan asked him.

"Immovable Arhat, Demon-Subduing Arhat, Guanyin."

"...I can feel the gap between my siblings and me now, like two Arhats." Li Qianxia was quite good at finding humor in hardship.

“Let’s join forces and clear them out one by one,” Yang Qinglan said. “This was originally a battle between Buddhism and Taoism, a battle between the entire Taoist and Buddhist communities.”

“Hmm,” Li Qianxia nodded, “When those people were having a meeting just now, they said it was for more Qi. I thought about it, and it probably refers to the mining rights of Qi. For this, we either have to go to other planets or join the Buddhist-Taoist war and fight to the death.”

“I have a feeling,” Li Changzhou mused, “that we’ve all been tricked by a game of values.”

"Hmm?" Li Qianxia looked at him.

Yang Qinglan smiled: "Are you trying to say that the ability to mobilize all the power of the past and annihilate those gods and immortals is through the hands of us players?"

“Yes,” Li Changzhou said with a smile, “Just like in mobile games, every player who makes a purchase is a shareholder.”

“Your analogy is completely inappropriate,” Li Qianxia said disdainfully. “It should be like a romance novel. It’s because of the fans who subscribe that the book can be written chapter by chapter, and the male and female protagonists can get together.”

“It’s more appropriate than your brother’s,” Yang Qinglan said with a smile.

"Whose wife are you?" Li Changzhou asked her.

“…You are more appropriate than her.” Yang Qinglan looked at her husband with a broom in hand, her face full of helplessness, but she still had to say ‘cool, cool, cool’.

Li Qianxia pouted.

Satisfied, Li Changzhou said, "Alright, enough chit-chat. Let's go find Yaochi. After we find her, we'll go to Lingyin Temple together."

[A book-reading app recommended to me by a friend I've known for ten years, Huanyuan App! It's incredibly useful; I use it to read aloud and listen to books while driving or before bed to pass the time. You can download Huanyuan App here.]

"Is the first target Ji Gong?" Li Qianxia asked. "Brother, you have three mission targets. I think I should help you first?"

"Do you know where the Immovable Arhat and the Demon-Subduing Arhat are? Let's capture Ji Gong, who knows where they are, first, and then find a way to find the others."

Capturing him alive is harder than killing him, but with the four of them working together, it shouldn't be a problem—if they kill him, Yang Qinglan will have to return to the train.

Li Qianxia suddenly looked up, opened the cave's magic array, and a bluebird flew in.

The bluebird flew around the cave once, hovering above the three of them, and a clear light shone down: "I am at the Liuhe Pagoda by West Lake in Lin'an."

As soon as he finished speaking, the entire bluebird turned into a ray of light and disappeared without a trace.

“Actually, Yao-jie and I don’t live far apart,” Li Qianxia said.

“Lin’an is indeed the next capital of the Song Dynasty; everyone is flocking here,” Li Changzhou said.

"Let's go." Yang Qinglan stood up.

"Wait!" Li Qianxia took everything she could from the cave, even if she might not be able to exchange it, she could still use it in missions.

The three of them rode on clouds to West Lake.

Yang Qinglan held the Fairy Ruyi in her arms, while Li Changzhou's Emerald Bee Sword transformed into a series of deadly weapons brimming with ferocity.

"The West Lake is so beautiful, especially in March. The spring rain is like wine, and the willows are like smoke... I wonder if I'll be able to meet Bai Suzhen and Xiaoqing on the Broken Bridge." Li Qianxia hummed a song in anticipation.

Li Changzhou glanced at her: "Whether we meet or not, don't do anything unnecessary."

"Can't I just have an autograph?"

There wasn't much entertainment when she was a child. The old-fashioned CRT TV showed "The Legend of the White Snake," and Li Qianxia would sit in front of the TV five minutes early every day.

She learned the hand gestures of Bai Suzhen to cast spells, wrapped herself in a white mosquito net, and sometimes twisted on the bed imagining herself as a snake.

Unfortunately, things have changed. Now that she's grown up, she wants to be a hot girl (but only in words), and has long forgotten the self who used to wear a white mosquito net.

Upon reaching the top of West Lake, the three concealed themselves and withdrew their magical power, transforming it into divine will.

To ordinary cultivators, the three looked like ordinary tourists out for a spring outing. Because they had lost their magic power, Yang Qinglan and Li Qianxia could not hide their appearances, so Li Changzhou simply turned the Emerald Bee Sword into a small boat.

The boat was small but exquisite and clean, and it was also equipped with a variety of food.

This is a prop specifically designed for enjoyment.

After hiring a group of children playing shuttlecock with a silver coin to deliver a message to Yaochi, Li Changzhou and two beautiful young women sat in the cabin, eating crabs, drinking wine, and enjoying the beautiful scenery of West Lake.
