Chapter 223 Uncle Lu's Entrustment



As a disciple, Jiang Si took Guan Qingchen and Li Jianshan to see Qin Zhi.

Qin Zhi had just returned from the company and showed no surprise at seeing them.

Guan Qingchen and Li Jianshan, however, seemed a bit awkward with each other.

In the past, although the Guan and Li families were only slightly inferior to the Qin family, they were still all from prominent families and their status was not much lower.

Now that Qin Zhi has become the leader of their sect, things are a little awkward.

In reality, Qin Zhi wasn't much older than them.

Upon seeing Qin Zhi, the two of them simultaneously called out, "Sect Leader."

Jiang Si then realized that she seemed a little awkward, and said, "I don't need to introduce you, you all know each other."

Qin Zhi nodded, "There are quite a few connections between them."

He then looked at the two of them with a scrutinizing gaze.

Guan Qingchen didn't have any extraordinary encounters, but he was born with a talent for cultivation, and given time he will surely achieve great things.

As for Li Jianshan, he absorbed the inner core of the thousand-year-old black dragon, gaining many years of extra power for no reason. If he could refine it all and use it for his own purposes, he would also be a terrifying existence.

He nodded: "These two disciples are quite talented."

To receive a single "yes" from Qin Zhi is truly remarkable.

In the eyes of the Asura King, you are all trash.

Jiang Si said, "The grand competition is just around the corner. We should participate and not lose too badly. Besides, it's our first time visiting, so Sect Leader Qin, you should at least show some appreciation."

Qin Zhi laughed, glancing sideways at Jiang Si: "Then let me tell you what I should do in return."

“I know you’ve always had a secret place.”

This was not a secret at all ten thousand years ago.

Legend has it that the Asura King was able to cultivate supreme magical power because he obtained a blessed land where he trained and made rapid progress in his magical abilities.

Unfortunately, the secret realm was opened by the will of the Asura. If the Asura King did not agree, or if the Asura King could not be killed, no one could obtain it, which made the Taoist sect members at the time grit their teeth in hatred.

Why should a demonic cultivator be allowed to obtain this precious land?!

"You've come up with a pretty good idea."

Jiang Si smiled.

Qin Zhi remained noncommittal, "Alright, you will be treated well if you join my Qingqiu Sect."

Guan Qingchen and Li Jianshan, who had been listening silently, brightened up.

It's here, the secret realm has finally arrived.

Jiang Si poured cold water on their enthusiasm: "Don't be too happy yet. He almost died when he went in. You will only be on the outer perimeter this time. If you encounter a problem that you can't solve, just squeeze the survival ball I gave you."

"You can't get fat in one bite; as long as you're alive, you can always make a comeback."

"Otherwise, I won't be able to explain this to your grandfather and Han Yunluo."

Jiang Si tried to reason with them and appeal to their emotions, but she was afraid that the two of them were too stubborn.

While he shouldn't lose his life, it would be bad if he got injured and it affected the game.

"Don't worry, we're not the kind of people who play the hero," the two replied in unison.

They were gone for more than half a month, and had already informed their relatives and friends.

Li Qinghuai wholeheartedly agreed, saying that a real man should make a difference.

The underworld has been quite busy lately, and Han Yunluo spends most of her time there.

When Han Yunluo received the paper money burned by Guan Qingchen, she only told him to cherish this opportunity and be careful.

Jiang Si never expected Qin Zhi to refuse, so she had them prepare to enter the secret realm immediately before they arrived.

Qin Zhi led them to the back mountain.

The Qin family occupied almost an entire hilltop, with mountains behind them. Some people thought this symbolized having a mountain to rely on, but no one knew that the Qin family's back mountain held many secrets.

The back mountain has been almost completely hollowed out; the huge, empty cave is almost empty of anything.

Jiang Si pursed her lips. "I didn't expect the road to be here. You really hid it well."

She knew at a glance that this was the road to Asura.

Legend has it that the gate to the Asura Realm is extremely hidden, and very few people know about it. However, it is also said that the Asura Realm is extremely desolate and barren, with not a single blade of grass growing inside, so much so that there is no motivation to even go in and rob someone.

No wonder the Asura clan is always restless.

Qin Zhi did not answer the question.

He stretched out his left hand, and out of thin air appeared a mirage-like object about the size of two basketballs. Inside, one could clearly see an endless forest, where several animals whose appearance did not conform to modern mainstream aesthetics were fighting bloody battles.

At this moment, Guan Qingchen and Li Jianshan finally had a clearer understanding of just how strong Qin Zhi was.

To hold a world in one's hands—that requires immense power.

Qin Zhi asked in a flat tone, "Are you ready?"

The two, still in shock, snapped out of it and replied, "Ready."

As soon as they finished speaking, the two disappeared from their spot and entered the secret realm.

Jiang Si was still a little worried, "Didn't they manage to kill my two apprentices?"

Qin Zhi withdrew the secret realm in his palm and chuckled, "If they can't even handle this small difficulty, I advise them to forfeit, lest they tarnish the reputation of our Qingqiu Sect."

Jiang Si: "..."

While the "but" makes a lot of sense, it's still possible to open a back door.

"Don't worry, you won't die," Qin Zhi said irritably.

Jiang Si was finally relieved.

After leaving, Jiang Si glanced back at the door and said, "Are you guarding this place because the Asura clan is out of control?"

Although Qin Zhi is the king of the Asura clan, the Asura clan has always been warlike and does not like to submit to others. Even Qin Zhi is always on the path of strong suppression.

In this era, if the Asura race were to invade the human realm, it would be a catastrophe.

Thanos won't be needed; the Asura race can complete their mission.

Even so, Jiang Si knew that occasionally members of the Asura clan would escape.

Qin Zhi pinched the bridge of his nose, his expression not good: "They've become increasingly arrogant lately."

Jiang Si patted him lightly a few times, "You've worked hard."

Managing a group of belligerent individuals is really not easy.

The Asura race fears neither rebirth nor the laws of heaven; they are born solely for pleasure.

Qin Zhi said, "I should be the one saying that to you. Let's go to the front hall. Are you in trouble?"

Jiang Si: "???"

It's not surprising that Jiang Si didn't foresee that someone who could heal himself was capable of healing others.

When Jiang Si arrived at the front hall, she was surprised to see her second uncle, Lu.

This is the only person in the Lu family who still has some humanity.

Since severing ties with the Lu family, Jiang Si hadn't paid any attention to them except for hearing that they were in a lot of trouble. She had no idea what her second uncle could possibly want with her now.

They even went to the Qin family's house.

Jiang Si didn't have that much of a problem with Lu Xingquan, and asked, "What's wrong?"

Lu Xingquan looked anxious and, upon seeing Jiang Si, said, "This time, as the client, I'm asking you to come out of retirement, is that alright?"

"..." Jiang Si said, "Why don't you tell me what it is first?"

She guessed that the Lu family was definitely involved in what was causing Lu Xingquan such a headache.

"Do you know 72 Pingnan Road? It's the most famous mental hospital in the city." Lu Xingquan looked at Jiang Si, his eyes filled with fear.
