My Endless Life.

Chapter 298 Going up the mountain
Li Qi looked at the speechless old man Scorpion with a strange expression.

He thought for a moment, knocked the Rabbit Guardian unconscious, loosened the silk thread around the Scorpion Old Man's neck, and asked:
"You just said that the leader of the Shengxian Sect would abandon the Shengxian Sect. What did you mean?"

“…I also heard what the Left Envoy said.”

The old man's throat moved, and the bloodstains on his neck recovered a little. He then said, "The left envoy is in charge of the affairs of the Hidden Department. He occasionally meets with us in private to communicate. From him, I learned that the leader has been paying less and less attention to the affairs of the sect recently."

Li Qi was curious when he heard this: "What do you mean?"

Elder Scorpion answered truthfully, "The war between good and evil has already begun. This should have been an opportunity for my sect to advance further in the Demon Alliance, but the leader only asked me to teach my disciples to fight against the enemy on the front line.

“Nearly half of the twelve guardians are dead now, and one of the Four Symbols guardians was also surrounded and killed by the masters of the righteous path!

"Among the six demon sects, only our Shengxian Sect suffered the most serious losses, but the leader ignored it and still sent people to the front line of the battle between good and evil! If it were not so, why would we create more fake pills to train new disciples?"

When Old Man Scorpion said this, he revealed some resentment. He looked at Li Qi and said:
“I don’t know how you got in, nor do I know which sect you belong to, but since you didn’t kill us immediately, it means that we are of use to you.

"Nowadays, people in the sect are in a panic, and many well-informed people are starting to seek their own way out. My wife and I were also planning to find a way out and leave the Ascension Sect. If you are willing to let us go, we are willing to become your subordinates and slaves!"

What Old Scorpion meant was to give them a chance.

Li Qi looked at him with a smile without giving any response, while in his heart he was thinking about the changes in the Shengxian Sect.

The leader of the Shengxian Sect had built the sect up from nothing to its current state bit by bit. Now he was on the verge of consolidating his position in the Demonic Sect and officially becoming one of the top sects in the Demonic Path, but now he gave up.

This is totally unreasonable!

The same is true for Xihua Palace. Xihua Palace also has a sufficient status in the righteous world, but it is also willing to give up and even willing to migrate to the overseas magic island.

Shengxian Sect, Xihua Palace.

The actions of the two factions are somewhat contrary to common sense, but the two factions seem to be connected to each other.

Li Qi keenly felt that there was something fishy going on. Xihua Palace and Shengxian Sect, two different sects of good and evil, made the same choice at this moment.

If you say there is no trick involved, no one will believe it!

Looking at the old man Scorpion in front of him, Li Qi suddenly turned to look at the Rabbit Protector.

He walked up to the sleeping Rabbit Guardian, grabbed her neck, and used a little force:

"I can let you go, but I have to pay with her life."

"..."

The old man Scorpion was stunned for a moment. He stared at Li Qi blankly, then looked at the unconscious Rabbit Guardian, and asked with trembling lips:
"Can...can we change the conditions? I...I know many secrets of the Ascension Sect. As long as you are willing to let us go..."

"You are not qualified to negotiate terms with me."

Li Qi exerted force on his hands, and the sleeping Rabbit Guardian showed a painful expression on his face.

Seeing this, Old Scorpion’s eyes widened so wide that they almost popped out of their sockets.

His body was shaking, and the internal energy became increasingly unstable. But before his internal energy could circulate, Li Qi's silk thread pierced into his body, blocking several key acupuncture points.

Those demonized warriors in the Shengxian Sect who possess demon pills will self-destruct. Li Qi has suffered twice from this, so it is impossible for him to suffer a third time.

The internal energy could not circulate, and the demon pill could not explode. Old Scorpion could only watch Li Qi strangle the Rabbit Protector and was powerless to do anything.

In the end, he seemed to have given up, relaxed, and said dejectedly:
“…Your Excellency, please kill me, but please spare Yu’er.”

"I can't believe you're still such an infatuated person."

Li Qi was very surprised when he heard about Old Man Scorpion's choice.

Although not all the people in the Demon Cult are heartless and ungrateful, under the influence of the magic power, most of them will become bloodthirsty, insidious and ruthless.

People like Old Man Scorpion, who put the life of his partner above his own life, are extremely rare.

Hearing this, Old Man Scorpion laughed miserably and said:

"I adopted Yu'er when I was sixteen and took her in as my apprentice. When I was thirty, I brought her into the Ascension Sect to become a guardian. After that, I married her regardless of worldly ethics... To me, Yu'er is not only my only family, but also my lifelong partner...

"I have already regarded her life as more important than my own."

As the old man Scorpion spoke, he had the will to die in his heart: "So, if you really only want one person to live, then I... choose to let Yu'er live."

He finished speaking and closed his eyes.

Tu Yuer, whose neck was strangled by Li Qi, was already in tears.

Li Qi felt very strange when he saw these two evil people performing a drama of "love between life and death" in front of him.

The relationship between these two people is so pure that Li Qi is a little uncomfortable with it.

It's as if he is the villain.

It is obvious that these two guys are the ones from the Demon Sect.

After a little thought, Li Qi let go of Tu Yu'er, threw her on the ground, turned to Old Man Scorpion and said:

"Okay, since you care so much about this girl, I'll give you a chance for both of you to survive."

"Sir... No, please speak, Senior!"

Upon hearing this, Old Scorpion opened his eyes instantly and spoke in a humble tone.

Li Qi raised his hand and fed Tu Yu'er a pill, then said to Old Man Scorpion:
"I will disguise myself as her and stay in the Ascension Sect to gather information. What you and she have to do is to tell me everything you know, in detail, so that I won't be exposed." "When I get what I want, I will let you go, but if I am exposed during this period..."

Li Qi chuckled: "You may survive, but she will die."

Li Qi had never thought of killing Tu Yuer before. He was just confirming the importance of this rabbit guardian in the heart of old man Scorpion.

If Old Man Scorpion doesn't care about Rabbit Yu'er, then he will kill Old Man Scorpion and let Rabbit Yu'er come to assist him.

That's why he let Tu Yuer wake up halfway.

Only after seeing how ruthless and merciless Old Man Scorpion is, will Tu Yuer help him.

But if Old Man Scorpion cared about Rabbit Yuer very much, it would turn out like this.

Li Qi threatened Tu Yuer's life and asked Old Man Scorpion to cover for him.

…Looking at it this way, it seems that I really do have a bit of a villain vibe.

Li Qi secretly complained in his heart.

After hearing the conditions proposed by Li Qi, Old Scorpion felt relieved.

He was not afraid of Li Qi proposing conditions, but he was afraid that Li Qi would not offer any conditions and insisted on killing both of them.

Now that Li Qi asked the two of them to help conceal their identities, Old Man Scorpion felt a lot more relieved.

But he also reminded:

"Senior, forgive me for being so nosy. It's no problem for you to disguise yourself as Yu'er, but Yu'er has her own immortal body... When the guardians gather together, we will participate in it with our immortal bodies. You..."

"Is this the immortal body you are talking about?"

As Li Qi spoke, the surface of his body changed. White fur appeared on his body and a pair of long rabbit ears grew on top of his head.

After taking off the veil covering his face, Li Qi revealed an appearance that was exactly the same as Tu Yuer.

Seeing this, Old Man Scorpion and Rabbit Yuer, who had already woken up, both widened their eyes.

“This…this, this…”

Old Scorpion was so surprised that he was speechless.

Li Qi touched his face and looked at Tu Yu'er again: "Can we fool them like this?"

"…able."

Tu Yuer stared at Li Qi blankly, not yet recovering from her shock.

She had seen many ways of disguising one's appearance, but this kind of disguise that could even create the characteristics of a demon was the first time she had seen it!

How can this be called a disguise? This is simply a change of appearance!

Is there any disguise technique in this world that is as good as that of immortals?

Li Qi ignored the two people's shock. He touched the rabbit ears on his head, felt the texture, and nodded with slight satisfaction.

When the Immortal Heart Sutra reaches the third level, the disguise technique can no longer be called the disguise technique, it can be completely called the transformation technique!
By stimulating internal force and changing the accumulation of flesh and blood on the surface, it is possible to create characteristics that do not exist in humans to a certain extent.

For example, the fish gills that Li Qi had changed on the seabed before, and the rabbit ears on his head now.

However, the fish gills can help Li Qi breathe underwater, but the rabbit ears are just decorations. Li Qi did not make such a detailed connection between them and hearing.

"That's fine. Now tell me what I need to pay attention to. It's better to be detailed. Otherwise, if I'm exposed, you know the consequences."

Li Qi spoke to the two of them in a dim voice, and he looked like the villain that often appears on TV.

The lives of Old Man Scorpion and Rabbit Yuer were all in Li Qi's hands. They didn't dare to have any other opinions on this and quickly began to tell Li Qi what he needed to pay attention to.

……

The next morning, Hu Xiaoer and Wang Niuniu were woken up by the disciples of the Rabbit Sect before they woke up.

A girl wearing the pink and white uniform of Rabbit Gate came in and urged them:
"Hurry up, hurry up, everyone. Today the Sect Master will take you to the Holy Mountain to do some work. Don't be late!"

The girl left the house after she shouted. Hu Xiaoer got up rubbing his eyes in a daze, and subconsciously looked towards the place where Li Qi was sleeping, but found that there was no one there.

Hu Xiaoer was startled and was about to get up to look for it, when he found a small arrow under his butt.

Picking up the small arrow, the voice left by Li Qi came into his mind:
"I have something to investigate. Don't worry about me. Just protect yourself."

After the voice disappeared, a special thought flowed into Hu Xiaoer's mind.

In just a few blinks of an eye, Hu Xiaoer understood Li Qi's intention of leaving this small arrow.

This was left by Li Qi for him to use for self-defense.

The first level of "Heavenly Soul Transfer" cannot control this small arrow, but the spiritual thoughts left by Li Qi in it can allow practitioners who also practice Heavenly Soul Transfer to control this special small arrow three times.

This is something that can only be used by practitioners of the "Tiangong Soul Transferring" technique.

Of course, a master who has mastered the momentum can also do it.

However, the Grand Master also looks down upon this kind of method.
