The Happy Farmer Wanderer-Chapter 911: Truly Buried!

Black Arrow almost instantaneously shattered the Dantians of those two men.

Amidst the agonizing groans, Li Qing quickly filled the grave and tamped the earth solidly.

Even at this juncture, they still had the nerve to act tough like ducks fighting back; they could hardly blame him for being ruthless.

Although it was his first time doing such a thing, it was not the first time for Li Qing to kill, and his hand did not tremble in the slightest.

Fill the earth, tamp it down.

Li Qing affixed a Godspeed Talisman and directly left the desolate mountain.

As long as these two survived, aided by the healing of the Revitalizing Pills, a small pit certainly wouldn’t be enough to contain them.

He couldn’t let these two old coots take the chance to escape.

Rushing to the outskirts of the county town, Li Qing carried away an entire bag of Joss Paper from a funeral supply store, along with two boxes of incense, and returned to the desolate mountain. Although these two were hard-mouthed, standing tall and proud even at the brink of death, their will to live was indeed strong.

When Li Qing came back, he actually saw the two men working together, blowing the dirt around each other’s necks with all their might, and it was effective; the square-faced middle-aged man had most of his shoulder exposed already.

An ordinary person, even if they exhausted themselves to death, could at most blow away some loose soil, but these two, although their Dantians were destroyed, seemed to still retain a sliver of strength, which was why they were able to blow away so much earth in such a short time.

When they saw Li Qing return, the two middle-aged men froze in unison.

Shock and panic were thick on their similarly darkened cheeks.

Li Qing dropped the Joss Paper and incense in front of them and squatted down, "Pretty impressive, you two, just with your heads exposed and you still figured out a way to save yourselves. To be honest, I do admire that. Why not lie down peacefully and wait for death? Why bother struggling so much?"

He mocked them, refilling the earth they had dug out and stomped on it several times, "Does it hurt? All your efforts, and I just kicked it all back into place."

"Young man, why must you be so relentless? Killing us will not only bring disaster upon you and your Puppet, but it will also implicate the Ninth Bureau. You cannot imagine how profound the Elixir Sect’s foundations really are." The square-faced middle-aged man said with a painful expression, shaking his head, "Even the mighty Nine Truth Palace that boasts itself as the grand cultivation Sect must show cooperation in the face of the Elixir Sect’s foundations."

"This is the intention of our Sect, but we disciples speculate in private that this is probably a condition, or an opportunity, for our Wuyu Mountain to return once again. The Elixir Sect needs Wuyu Mountain to be the spear, to let the world see the Elixir Sect’s powerful strength once more."

Li Qing roughly understood that they wanted to display their powerful strength to the world, to announce their return.

And to even use the Nine Truth Palace as a comparison, this sly fox somewhat looked down on the Nine Truth Palace.

"I’ll ask one more time, how important is this Elixir Recipe to your Wuyu Mountain?" Li Qing asked with an extra bit of caution.

"A Sect treasure, the Great Rejuvenating Yang Elixir was once a moneymaker for our Sect," said the square-faced middle-aged man.

Li Qing nodded, "But I can tell you frankly that I do not have the Elixir Recipe in my possession. What you believe to be the Great Rejuvenating Yang Elixir is actually all about technology and hard work. Times have changed, esteemed gentlemen, and with today’s conditions, it’s not very difficult to achieve anything."

"Impossible!" shouted the square-faced middle-aged man.

"Believe it or not, I have nothing to argue about with two dying men like you," Li Qing sneered, opened the bag of Joss Paper, piled all of it in front of these two men, and then took out a lighter to ignite it. 𝒻𝘳𝘦𝘦𝘸ℯ𝒷𝘯𝘰𝑣ℯ𝑙.𝘤𝑜𝘮

After the flames rose fiercely, Li Qing opened the whole box of incense and threw all of it in as well.

Muttering a few spells carelessly, Li Qing considered the two of them to be appeased.

Then, under the stunned and panicking gazes of the two men, he left the hillside directly.

However, he didn’t leave but sat on the mountaintop and sent a short video to Dian Chunqiu.

After less than a while, Dian Chunqiu’s call came through.

"You little bastard, having recruited such a creature, I’ve truly exhausted my heart’s patience for eight lifetimes. You’re quite moralistic, aren’t you? Burying people and even knowing to send them off with some Joss Paper?" Dian Chunqiu barked angrily.

"Chief, I take no considerations when dealing with the living, but I think it’s better to be polite with the dead," Li Qing laughed, "I’m engaged in this sort of work now. If these two’s resentment lingers and doesn’t disperse, it might well become my issue again in some time. I may have to kill them once more."

"That would be too troublesome. I think it’s better to send them off smoothly all at once. It saves us both the hassle."

Dian Chunqiu huffed coldly, "You’re really saving yourself some trouble, but it seems they hardly deserved to die, right?"

"Chief, you can’t wrong me like that, I do have my principles," Li Qing said, "If people don’t offend me, I won’t offend them. But if they do, then they must be buried! Those two old fools were annoying. If I didn’t hand over the stuff, they would kill, so I had to kill them."

"The key is that I don’t even have the Elixir Recipe for the Solidifying Spirit Elixir that they were after. Isn’t that purely provocation?"

Dian Chunqiu drew a long breath, which could be clearly heard over the phone. After breathing deeply, he asked, "Tell me, did you get anything out of them? You can’t just kill people without garnering something."

"I did get something out of it, Chief, don’t think I’m that foolish," Li Qing said, looking at the paper money burning below with a smile, "These two bastards claimed that the Sect Guardian Beast of Wu Yu Mountain has been revived, and they are about to rejoin the Elixir Sect."

"Their coming here to forcefully demand things from me isn’t an isolated case. They are doing this extensively, by forceful means, to retrieve the things Wu Yu Mountain has lost and, under the pretense, regain their so-called lost dignity."

There was silence on the phone from Dian Chunqiu for a moment before he asked in a somber voice, "Is this true?"

"Whether it’s true or not, I can’t guarantee it. I heard it from them, so there might be lies!" Li Qing said.

Dian Chunqiu asked, "Are they still breathing? Is there a chance of saving them?"

"Chief, you want to plead for these two? Is it worth it? They were the ones who came knocking."

"Shut your mouth!" Dian Chunqiu scolded angrily, "These two are more useful alive than dead."

"The Sect Guardian Beast of Wu Yu Mountain is very powerful. Although its strength may have decreased significantly after such a long slumber, it is a Divine Beast after all, and supposedly the first known revived Divine Beast. It is not to be underestimated. Of course, even so, Wu Yu Mountain is not that much of a problem. What really bothers me is Elixir Sect’s intentions."

"If Wu Yu Mountain is doing this openly now, it is certainly with the consent of Elixir Sect behind them. They want to showcase their power."
