Sword Qi to the Sky

Chapter 30 Position
The man in white robe glanced at the old demon, and his figure moved, and an afterimage appeared.

The old demon screamed and retreated, instantly transforming into a snake again.

Yu Qing punched the snake's belly, which immediately collapsed and bleeds. The old monster's huge snake body was knocked away again, and it screamed in pain.

The old demon didn't dare to speak when he got up again. The young man controlled by Li Fan obviously knew what the situation was. Li Fan loosened his grip a little. He coughed violently and cried bitterly, "I am from Xiyao Lake. I came here to pay a visit to you, senior. Please don't blame me for not being able to speak."

Yu Qing glanced at him indifferently, and the young man knelt on the ground and said, "I know I was wrong."

"Go away." Yu Qing's voice was calm.

"Thank you, senior." The young man kowtowed to Yu Qing, turned around and ran out, looking back at the old demon and scolded: "Hurry up, you dog slave."

"Yes, young master." The old man ran out with difficulty, looking extremely embarrassed.

When he walked out of the yard, the young man clenched his fists, his nails digging into the flesh of his palms, his eyes filled with murderous intent, and he roared in his heart: "I will kill them all, kill them all. I will chop the Lishan swordsman into pieces, and I will kill the snake demon after I have enjoyed him. I will skin and bone the dragon."

"Useless thing." He stared at the old demon beside him in a hoarse voice. This useless dog slave made him lose face. If it weren't for his cleverness, he would have lost his life.

The courtyard had become a ruin. Li Fan looked at the man in white robes and said, "Senior, please let that little beast go, but I'm afraid he won't be grateful."

"It's okay." The man in white robe responded, "Xiyao Lake is the top beast-controlling force in Dali, and it has many big monsters. This boy is not a core disciple, so he can't move many resources and pose no threat to you. If you kill him, Xiyao Lake can't just sit back and watch, otherwise it will be more troublesome."

Li Fan nodded. Mr. Yu was actually thinking about him and was very thoughtful. It was obvious that the little beast was mentally twisted and half crazy. Although he didn't understand Xiyao Lake, he believed what Yu Qing said.

Li Fan felt the other person's elegant temperament and found it difficult to put him together with the big demon dragon.

And according to the old monster, Yu Qing’s parents should be top monsters, big figures in the monster world, but they were skinned and had their tendons removed by humans. What happened to them?
Moreover, why is it related to Lishan?

There were rumors before that Li Shan was behind Fulong Villa, and the old monster also said that Yu Qing was kept in captivity by Li Shan.

Looking at Liu Ji's attitude towards him, she seemed charming but actually harbored hostility. There must be a lot of hidden secrets in this.

Yu Qing glanced at the ruins and then looked towards the distance, where several monks in white were standing. Yu Qing knew that they were from the Demon Slaying Division.

"It seems that there is no peace here anymore. Why don't you come with me to Fulong Villa?" Yu Qing said to Li Fan.

"Okay." Li Fan didn't mind. He just wanted to figure out some things.

Yu Qing turned around and led the way, Liu Ji followed quietly behind him, Li Fan leaped forward and followed, Li Hongyi hesitated for a moment and then followed.

Li Fan knew her temper and just let her do what she wanted.

Fulong Villa is located in the west of Lin'an County, close to Xishan Mountain. The villa is a forbidden area in Lin'an County. The surrounding area is very quiet and few people live there.

The villa was also very quiet. After entering the villa, Li Hongyi observed everything around her curiously. Since the City God Temple incident, she has been skeptical about everything she knew before.

"Mr. Yu, Sister Liu."

While walking in Fulong Villa, they met two girls about fourteen or fifteen years old who were bowing to Yu Qing and Liu Ji.

"An Ling, An Xin, why don't you rest so late?" Liu Ji said softly, completely different from how she said outside.

"We'll talk for a while at Sister Xiu's place, and now we'll go back and rest. Sister Liu, please don't be angry." The two girls laughed softly. Liu Ji glared at them and said, "Go back quickly."

"I understand, Sister Liu." The two responded playfully and then trotted away.

Later on the road, they met many women, most of whom were very young, which surprised Li Fan and Li Hongyi. So the rumors about Fulong Villa in the outside world were half true and half false?
There are indeed many women in Fulong Villa, but looking at their conditions, they are not as dirty as rumored by the outside world.

When he arrived at a courtyard, Li Fan saw the middle-aged man who had collided with the formless monk from Vajra Temple that day.

"Liu He, ask someone to prepare some wine and food." Yu Qing ordered.

"Okay." Liu He nodded and said to Li Fan with a smile, "Nice to meet you again."

"I would like to thank Mr. Liu for his help that day." Li Fan said.

"It doesn't matter. You will be fine even if I don't help." Liu He said casually, then turned around and asked someone to prepare wine and food.

Not long after, the wine and food were ready in the yard.

Yu Qing and Li Fan sat in the courtyard, Liu He and Liu Ji sat two seats behind Yu Qing, and Li Hongyi sat beside Li Fan.

There were also two young women pouring wine and serving on the side. That day, Li Fan asked Liu He if there were really a hundred women serving in Fulong Villa, and Liu He replied yes.

Now it seems that it is true.

"I didn't enjoy drinking at the restaurant last time. Let's have a few more drinks." Yu Qing, dressed in a white robe, still looked gentle and elegant. He raised his glass to Li Fan.

Li Fan had many questions in his mind, so he raised his glass and drank it all.

"What do you want to ask?" Yu Qing seemed to see through Li Fan's thoughts and asked with a smile.

"Senior, are you really a dragon?" Li Fan asked curiously.

"Why, don't you think so?" Yu Qing smiled casually as he looked at the innocent face of the young man in front of him.

"Not really." Li Fan shook his head and said, "More like an elegant monk."

"I have half human blood." Yu Qing responded: "My father is a great demon dragon, but my mother is human."

Li Fan looked at the other party with some surprise and whispered: "Humans and monsters can also..."

He seemed to feel bad, and then shut up again. "Humans are the spirits of all things. The higher the level of cultivation of monsters, the more they are like humans. They can survive in the world as humans, even marrying and having children with humans." Yu Qing explained nonchalantly.

When Li Hongyi heard this, he glanced at Liu Ji.

Liu Ji seemed to notice her gaze and gave her a charming smile. Li Hongyi felt that she could not resist it and glanced at Li Fan beside her.

Shouldn't he have such a strong taste?
"Before, the old monster said that the senior was driven away from the mountain..." Li Fan asked again.

"I am indeed under house arrest here by Li Shan. There is a dragon-locking formation in Fulong Villa, which does not allow me to leave a certain range of the villa." Yu Qing responded calmly.

When he mentioned this, Liu Ji's expression obviously changed, and there was a hint of coldness in her eyes when she looked at Li Fan.

Li Hongyi became a little nervous.

Li Fan looked strange and asked, "Why?"

"More than ten years ago, a war broke out between human cultivators and the demon world, affecting the entire Dali Dynasty. Did you know?" Yu Qing asked.

"I know a little." Li Fan nodded, and his mind was filled with bad memories again.

The piles of corpses looked like a scene from hell.

He walked through hell and was then taken away from the mountain.

But he was still young at that time and didn't know exactly what had happened.

"I made a mistake, I ate humans, and I was imprisoned by humans. This is how it should be." Yu Qing said calmly, but his emotions seemed to be disturbed. He raised the wine in the glass and drank it all.

The smile in Li Fan's eyes disappeared, and there was a strange color in his eyes.

"Humans killed your parents, so what's wrong with you eating them?" Liu Ji next to her became excited.

Yu Qing glanced at her, and Liu Ji still looked at him stubbornly without avoiding him.

She is not convinced.

If humans kill monsters, the monsters will naturally eat humans.

Yu Qing sighed, looked at Li Fan, and noticed Li Fan's subtle changes.

"There is no right or wrong in this world, only positions." Yu Qing raised his glass and said to Li Fan: "Would you like to drink?"

Li Fan was slightly moved.

Yes, there is no right or wrong in this world.

Since humans killed Yu Qing's parents, he naturally had to eat them.

He was also unhappy when he heard that Yu Qing had eaten people.

This is his stance, because he is a human being, and he has seen monsters eat humans...

"So, it's no problem for Li Shan to imprison me here." Yu Qing's expression returned to calm and he drank several cups.

When Li Fan heard Yu Qing's words, his heart was moved. If he were Yu Qing, he would definitely not be able to treat the other party as indifferently.

His parents were killed and he was imprisoned. From Yu Qing's point of view, this was a blood feud.

"How come there's no problem?" Liu Ji's voice was a little hoarse, and her eyes turned emerald green, as if filled with hatred.

"During the Dali Rebellion, countless people died in the Dali world. Even the world-famous sword master Lishan died. Whose fault is this?"

Yu Qing sighed.

When Li Fan heard that Li Shan's sword master had died, his expression became solemn.

That is my junior brother’s father.

Perhaps for this reason, the old blind man said that the junior brother had too much murderous intent, especially towards monsters. Li Fan had personally witnessed the scene of the junior brother killing monsters.

Liu Ji lowered her head and said nothing. She didn’t understand so many principles.

"Let's not talk about these disappointing things." Yu Qing shook his head, looked at Li Fan and said, "Speaking of Lishan sword cultivators, I heard that all of them have extraordinary talents. Some of them can draw on the power of the sun, moon and stars to refine their swords. You are also a sword cultivator, can you do it?"

All things in the world contain spiritual energy. People who practice cultivation absorb the spiritual energy of all things in their cultivation, including water, fire, grass, trees, rare treasures, and even rivers, lakes, thunder, and rain.

But people with extraordinary talents can use the power of the sun, moon and stars to practice. This was the case with the sword master Li Shan back then. I wonder how Li Fan tempered his sword.

"Huh?" Li Fan was stunned and looked up at Yu Qing.

"It doesn't matter if it's inconvenient to say." Yu Qing said with a smile.

"I think it's possible." Li Fan replied.

"Should it be possible?" Yu Qing showed a puzzled look when he heard Li Fan's words, and then smiled with relief, probably because the young man was too concerned about his reputation.

Li Fan also cultivates other abilities, so it's normal that his talent in swordsmanship is a little weak. The youngest fifth-level swordsman in Li Shan's Dali should be able to do it.

Of course, the "weak" talent in his eyes was not really "weak", but it was compared with the top sword cultivators in Lishan.
