Chapter 127: Struck by Thunder
Xie Xiaohai was shocked for a moment. When did Xie Yuqing become so skilled?
Then he thought that Xie Yuqing was only in the Foundation Establishment Stage, while he was already in the initial stage of the Spirit Transformation Stage. Even if the sky fell, he could not lose.
His tone suddenly became angry and arrogant, "Then I will ask to leave the sect!"
Chi Li chuckled softly, "This punishment is too light. Elder Xie, can't you afford to lose?"
Xie Xiaohai said angrily: "Then what do you want?"
Chi Qi smiled and said, "If you lose, not only will you be asked to leave the sect, but you will also have to kneel down and kowtow to me three times."
A cry of surprise echoed from within the hall. "How in the world can a father kowtow to his child? Isn't he afraid of being struck by lightning?"
Xie Xiaohai was so angry that his blood boiled and his face turned red. He angrily said, "Xie Yuqing, you rebellious girl, you actually dared to ask your father to kowtow to you? Do you still have filial piety in your eyes?"
Chi Li raised her eyebrows and spoke with disdain, "Filial piety? You've been cultivating for years, yet you're still talking about those trivial mortal things. Have you gone astray and lost your mind? Besides, you didn't give birth to me, so even if I wanted to be filial, I couldn't be as filial as you. If you don't dare to compete, just admit defeat. There's nothing to be ashamed of."
As soon as these words fell, the atmosphere in the hall froze, and all the monks felt suffocated by the tense atmosphere between the two.
But there were also people who were gloating in their hearts and just wanted to watch the excitement of the fight between father and daughter.
After all, this competition was a foregone conclusion. No matter how harsh Xie Yuqing's words were, he would still lose once he stepped onto the competition stage, and then gloriously became the sect leader with the shortest tenure in history.
Just thinking about it makes me feel like it's a joke that makes people laugh!
Xie Xiaohai was so provoked by Chi Li that he completely lost his mind and almost went crazy. He shouted loudly: "You said it, this time I will teach you a lesson, you rebellious girl, you are really rebelling against heaven!"
Chi Li looked at him calmly and indifferently, without a trace of emotion in her eyes. "Then I'll wait and see. I hope Elder Xie can keep his word this time."
Xie Xiaohai glared at her fiercely, his hands clenched into fists shaking constantly. If the monks from the sect had not been watching, he would have taken action long ago.
Seeing how furious he was, Chi Qi couldn't help laughing in her heart. Men were really hard to reason with. They would get angry over the smallest things.
But it was his own fault that he bumped into her gun, so she couldn't be blamed.
It was just the right time to pack up Shi Zhenlin and Shi Zhuoyue together, so that she could live a more peaceful life as the Sect Leader of the Jinmen Immortal Palace.
Thinking of this, Chi Qi immediately had an idea in her mind.
She turned around and called Yu Yixian, asking her to help set up the competition venue in the square in front of Shangyang Palace. She took out a green ring from her storage bag and asked her to place it on the statue in the center of the square.
"This is..." Yu Yixian held the ring and looked at it, but for a moment he couldn't tell what kind of magic weapon it was.
Chi Li explained, "This spiritual ring can capture the images of the competition on the stage and magnify them in the void. This way, no matter where the sect's cultivators stand, they can see the competition clearly."
Yu Yixian widened her eyes in astonishment, and her cheek muscles trembled uncontrollably. Xie Yuqing was really not afraid of losing face. She even showed the video of the competition to everyone. Was she afraid that others would not be able to appreciate her miserable loss?
She could almost imagine what harsh words those people would say behind her back.
Yu Yixian hesitated for a moment, took a deep breath, and advised, "Why don't you just forget it? How can you, a Foundation Establishment Realm cultivator, defeat him, a Spirit Transformation Realm cultivator?"
This is no longer a challenge across levels, but a gap of three levels!
If Xie Xiaohai really didn't care about the relationship between father and daughter, killing her would be as easy as crushing an ant.
Chi Yan looked at her in surprise. She didn't expect that Yu Yixian, who looked cold and ruthless, was actually quite soft-hearted.
She lowered her voice and said, "Don't worry, I will accept the challenge. I will definitely find a way to defeat him."
Seeing that he couldn't persuade her, Yu Yixian thought that Xie Xiaohai was her father and she wouldn't really hurt him, so she stopped trying to persuade her.
She put on the ring and went to the square to arrange the setting of the arena. Just as she was about to call Liu Xiaoman for help, she turned around and saw that her disciple was no longer behind her.
A monk nearby hurriedly explained, "Elder, Senior Brother Liu has gone to the restroom and will be back soon!"
Yu Yixian frowned slightly. Wasn't Liu Xiaoman already fasting? Why was he still using the toilet? What a useless person!
If the elders had not picked out all the good seedlings and only Liu Xiaoman was left, she would not have accepted him as her disciple.
In fact, before Liu Xiaoman, Yu Yixian had another disciple. In her opinion, she was more talented than Shi Zhuoyue.
What's hateful is that she tried her best to train this disciple, but in the end, she was crazy about love and was willing to sever the master-disciple relationship with her and marry her to the Lingjian Sect.
Yu Yixian was heartbroken by her and was too lazy to bother thinking about taking in a disciple. As for Liu Xiaoman, he just used her as a makeshift one.
"Go and call him back!"
The monk agreed and turned to look for Liu Xiaoman.

Inside Shangyang Palace.
As soon as Yu Yixian left, Chi Li announced to everyone that she would go to the side hall to rest and adjust for a while, and start the competition when the arena was ready. Then she took Shi Zhenlin and left the hall.
The other monks followed and rushed to the square, filled with excitement, just waiting to watch this ridiculous competition.
Xie Xiaohai was so angry at Chi Li that his heart was pounding and he couldn't calm down for a long time. The other three elders came over and asked him to go to the square together, but he directly refused.
"I will go out after the venue is ready. You don't have to worry about me." As he said this, he sat down cross-legged in the hall, took out the spirit stone, closed his eyes and began to regulate his breathing.
Shi Zhuoyue, who had been suffering in the hall for most of the day, saw Chi Li and Shi Zhenlin leave. He thought that the opportunity had finally come, and immediately took Qiu Qianling to the side hall.
Originally, he planned to take Qiu Qianling to find his father and force Chi Li to hand over the spiritual root. By then, with his father's intelligence and wisdom, he would definitely be able to coax Qiu Qianling into voluntarily giving him the spiritual root.
But now, he was full of questions. Why did his father give up the position of clan leader to his mother? It couldn't be that he was confused for a moment, or was his father forced by his mother?
Shi Zhuoyue was eager to know the answer, so he hurried to the side hall and didn't notice that Qiu Qianling was left far behind.
Suddenly, a figure flashed out from the small door next to him and blocked his way.
A teasing voice entered Shi Zhuoyue's ears, "Hey! Big Brother, where are you going, walking so fast?"
Shi Zhuoyue stopped in annoyance and looked up, only to see Liu Xiaoman with an arrogant look on his face.
He took a deep breath and smiled gently, "It's Junior Brother Liu. I have something important to do in the side hall. Please move aside. I'll talk to you after I'm done."
"You can move aside, but give me a hundred high-level spirit stones." Liu Xiaoman stretched out his hand towards him, greed glittering in his eyes.
He lived a very hard life in Wangyue Peak and was relying on Shi Zhuoyue to make a living.
"You--!" The smile on Shi Zhuoyue's face suddenly disappeared.
Liu Xiaoman then threatened, "Hurry up! Your junior sister is coming over. You don't want her to know about what you've done, do you?"
Shi Zhuoyue was so scared that he immediately looked back and saw Qiu Qianling's familiar figure appearing from the corner and about to follow him. He hurriedly pushed Liu Xiaoman into the small room next to him and closed the door.
"I can't afford so many spirit stones right now. I'll give them to you in two days." He said through gritted teeth.
Qiu Qianling walked over from the corner and looked around. How come his senior brother disappeared in just a moment?
It was all because she was seriously injured and her body had not yet fully recovered, so she was unable to keep up with her senior brother.
However, senior brother must have been frightened by what happened in the hall just now, which is why he left so quickly, right?
She was also very anxious, but her mood was completely different from that of her senior brother.
Seeing Xie Yuqing holding up the Golden Rope Sword and enjoying the kneeling worship of everyone in the sect, Qiu Qianling felt only endless hatred in his heart.
Why? Her mother had lived a peaceful life and had never thought of asking her to find her father, but she was still brutally murdered by Xie Yuqing, and even her spiritual roots were not spared.
Just because the mother is a mortal and has no one to rely on, their lives are not lives?
What’s even more hateful is that no one knows how shameless and hateful Xie Yuqing is. Even her senior brother suspects that she is lying.
Thinking of this, Qiu Qianling couldn't help but clench his fists, and his knuckles turned white from the force.
When she sees Xie Yuqing later, she will definitely expose her hypocritical face and let everyone know how despicable and shameless she is.
She will definitely take revenge for this blood debt herself!
Qiu Qianling was about to move forward to catch up with Shi Zhuoyue in front of him, but suddenly, a familiar voice came from the room next to him, and his steps stopped.
"Don't act like that! How could a dignified senior brother of the sect not even have a hundred spirit stones and think I'm your stupid junior sister? Is that so easy to fool?"
Qiu Qianling was startled. Wasn't that Liu Xiaoman's voice? How dare he threaten his senior brother?
She was very annoyed and put her hand on the door. She was about to push it open and rush into the house. The next moment, she heard the slightly humble voice of her senior brother.
"But I just gave you 200 spirit stones last time. It's only been a few days, and you're asking me for more again. I really can't come up with so many high-level spirit stones. You have to give me some time."
These words were so weak and powerless that Qiu Qianling's eyes widened. How could her handsome and calm senior brother beg in such a humble manner to that bitch Liu Xiaoman?
Liu Xiaoman sneered, "Humph, that's your problem. Don't forget, you were the one who strangled Junior Sister Qian Ling's cat, but I'm the one who took the blame in the end!"
"If you don't give it to me, I will make your secret public, letting everyone in the sect know that the eldest brother who usually talks about benevolence, morality, integrity and selflessness is actually a pervert who likes to torture cats. Then, the entire sect will spit on you. Without your cultivation and reputation, you will no longer have a place in this immortal clan!"
Outside the door, Qiu Qianling felt as if he had been struck by lightning. He froze in place, his face drained of all color.
