Chapter 300: I’ve Been Tricked

Translator: Larbre Studio Editor: Larbre Studio

Li Peiyun took out his mobile phone strangely. Although it was not a desolate area, it was really inaccessible. The nearest villages were tens of kilometers away, so the signal was poor and intermittent.

He took his mobile phone with him, mainly out of habit, so that he could see the time. Once in a while, he used to scroll a website to learn about the information and news happening within the demon descendants’ community. When he came here, he didn’t touch his cell phone except to keep track of the time.

There was a diesel generator in the valley. It was too troublesome to charge. Moreover, several protectors of the Great Demons’ Alliance despised him because he was unwilling to join the Great Demons’ Alliance. Li Peiyun’s character was like this. It was okay to let him be the leader of the Ancient Gods’ Clan. He could not be in power, but he needed to be the boss.

To join the Great Demons’ Alliance, he could only be a protector at most, equal to the other eight protectors, and he would need to listen to the “Emperor” of the Great Demons’ Alliance.

Don’t be ridiculous. I love freedom. Who dares to control me?

His pride came from self-confidence and his identity as the Demonic Priest’s successor. Demonic Priest Wang Chen was one of the only two peak Gokudo Path experts in the last 500 years. As his successor, when did he become someone else’s servant?

“I have a signal. I’m lucky tonight. I can go to the website to see the news…” Li Peiyun glanced at the mobile screen and his expression turned dark.

A message popped up in WeChat: “Rascal, where are you?”

The sender was Li Xianyu! Li Peiyun frowned. He didn’t expect that Li Xianyu would send him a message in the middle of the night. Although Li Xianyu saved him in the trial at the Forum Conference, Li Peiyun would not appreciate it at all. He was just keeping his life safe to bait out the Great Demons’ Alliance. In other words, if it wasn’t for Baoze’s actions, even he wouldn’t know Hu Yan had linked up with the Great Demons’ Alliance.

Moreover, he had never heard of the Great Demons’ Alliance before. This organization had suddenly appeared, and it also had a quite powerful force. He did not know where they found so many newly awakened demon descendants.

He ignored Li Xianyu, opened the most popular website in the demon descendants’ community, and brushed up the information of these days.

The biggest news in recent days was still the events that happened at the Forum Conference. It was worth mentioning that Taoism was electing a new Taoist Venerable, and the candidates would be determined before the end of the year.

In that storm, Taoist Venerable fell, the old case of Demonic Priest was turned over again, and people’s opinion of him changed from “extreme villain” to “he deserved to die” to “pitiful man”. Although there were still many detractors, there were more followers on his side now. It was all because of the short serial published by the guy he thought was a thorn in the flesh.

He couldn’t help but open Li Xianyu’s profile. He glanced at it. The latest update was two days ago.

Li Peiyun read and found that he had finished reading the story. The story stopped at the first time when Wang Chen went out with the army to kill the Japanese invaders. He looked at the number of words: 2,000.

“It’s short, yet he still stopped here,” he murmured, put away his cell phone, and planned to keep practicing his qi.

Ding dong!

The mobile phone rang again. He took it out and looked at it. It was still the message from Li Xianyu: “Rascal, are you going to meet me or not?”

Li Peiyun frowned again and felt some emotion in his heart. Li Xianyu sent his message at 3 or 4 A.M, he must have had a purpose. He would not be suffering from insomnia, chatting with old friends to kill time.

“Baoze used me as a bait to lead them to the Great Demons’ Alliance. However, he underestimated the strength of the Great Demons’ Alliance. Not only did they fail to keep me, but they allowed me to be abducted by another.”

“They will not give up. Instead, I am not Baoze’s real target. What they really want to deal with is the Great Demons’ Alliance.”

“Li Xianyu sent me messages so that I could reply to him and reveal my location?”

Li Peiyun sneered. That guy was clumsy in trying to bait him out. So funny, when did I have no intelligence?

“Meeting me or not?”

“Meeting me or not…”

A series of “Meeting me or not” messages followed. It seemed to hint that he would continue bombarding him with messages if he did not reply. Li Peiyun sneered at the corners of his mouth, but ignored him.

No matter how you try, I will not be moved.

“You said that you would fight me anytime. You just said it to preserve your dignity. I see. You’re afraid of me. Haha, after all, you’re the poor guy I beat twice in a row.”

Li Peiyun smiled. I won’t fall victim to your attempts in agitating me.

He was about to turn off his cell phone and put it back in his pocket when he heard it ring again. There was another message: “I guess you’re going to turn it off now and ignore me. Oh, I understand you. After all, people from the heart are like this. You shut it down. Anyway, it’s all my guess. Next time you see it, you can totally deny that it’s the cell phone that’s out of power. It’s sleeping. It’s just the cell phone that’s broken. There are all kinds of reasons. You can make them up. But can you deceive yourself when you are so cowardly?”

Li Peiyun’s finger slightly trembled as he fiddled with the shutdown key, and he felt a fire in his heart.

The issue that had perplexed him for a long time had acted up again. You beat me twice, but you cheated. What are you so proud of? What are you proud of?! I’m so angry.

After learning that Li Xianyu once entered Demonic Priest’s memories, Li Peiyun immediately reflected that, at Sanliban village back then, his Tri-Elements Sword Technique had not been completed, so it had a fatal flaw. Ordinary people would not know this, but Li Xianyu thought out of the box to defeat him. The precision was even more than getting a woman pregnant in one shot.

He thought for a long time and couldn’t figure it out. His heart said it was unreasonable and impossible. As a result, many of his brain cells died.

Since Li Xianyu had seen the recollections of the Demonic Priest, it was not surprising to know the weakness in the early stage of the Tri-Elements Sword Technique.

Hence, that time at Sanliban village, Li Xianyu had cheated. It was like when everybody was playing cards, you had eyes that could see through things. What was the purpose of playing then?

As for the battle for the treasures of the Demonic Priest, let’s not mention it. The evil thing that haunted Demonic Priest all his life was attached to him. Li Xianyu did not rely on his own strength at all.

Li Peiyun’s most unyielding and unforgettable memory was here. As the Demonic Priest’s descendant, he was defeated by an unrelated boy twice in a row by the relics (memories) of the Demonic Priest.

You took advantage of me and laughed at the size of my chest. That was how it felt.

“Dear nephew, Uncle will show you a good thing.” Li Xianyu’s message was sent again with a video.

Reason told him that this video was not a good thing, and it was better not to watch it.

“What am I afraid of, why am I chickening out?” Li Peiyun asked himself. “It’s just watching a video. I just don’t want to reply to him. I’m not angry at all, right, not at all.”

He dared not open the video and dared not see his information. As Li Xianyu said, he would not know. However, Li Peiyun never deceived himself. If he were to turn off his phone and not watch it, he would have chickened out psychologically. This was something Li Peiyun would never tolerate.

He calmly clicked on the video. The signal was not very good, the network speed was very slow. Even if it was a 4G network, in such a remote place, there was a 2G signal.

After waiting for about ten minutes, the video, which loaded incredibly slowly, was finally ready.

The first picture from the video made Li Peiyun’s pupils shrink and his anger flash. It was the scene of Li Xianyu kicking him to the ground during his trial at Lianghua temple. The background music was very lively.

A man’s rap sounded. The voice is very familiar. It was Li Xianyu’s voice.

“In a blink of an eye, three months in Baoze

The newbie’s journey made him very uneasy

I’m afraid to go out and meet bad guys at the first turn

There are a lot of experts in the demon descendants’ community

Yo, there are many experts

Went out today and had a good time

Saw an expert pretending in the temple

Li Peiyun, are you ok

Give me your Tri-Elements Sword Technique if you dare

The newbie will teach you a lesson

If you can’t, admit your failure”

The picture repeated the action of Li Xianyu beating him up. With this kind of rambling rap, the production style drew parallels from a particular video website. Li Peiyun looked at it and his face turned red slowly.

However, it was not over. The rap was still on.

“Li Peiyun, are you ok?”

“I say Li Peiyun, you say…”

The video jumped to the next frame. A beautiful girl with a mole on her left eye appeared and gave a thumbs up, but suddenly flipped her thumb down and said dismissively, “No way!”

“I say Li Peiyun, you say…”

As soon as the picture jumps, a beautiful woman with long legs entered the mirror. It was Thunderbolt Battle Lady, who he had fought with several times. The beauty with long legs sneered, “No way!”

“I say Li Peiyun, you say…”

The scene jumped again. This time, there was a sexy woman who had a devilish figure. Her arms were folded below her bosom as she sneered, “No way!”

The video ended with Li Xianyu beating Li Peiyun.

Bitch! Li Peiyun suddenly behaved in a frantic manner. He held his cell phone tightly. The veins were popping out of his brain as he exploded in anger.

Ding! A message came in.

The content was concise and comprehensive. “Let’s fight! Do you dare?”

Li Peiyun’s eyes were red, his whole body was trembling with anger, and he typed: “Fight!”

After the reply, Li Peiyun regretted it. He took a deep breath and looked up at the starry night sky.

I think… I’ve been tricked! Was it too late to withdraw now?

However, on second thought, Baoze’s target was the Great Demons’ Alliance. Even if they were to come, he would not be afraid. He was just waiting for Li Xianyu to come. With the Great Demons’ Alliance, he could even use their forces to separate Li Xianyu and the Unparalleled War Spirit.

This way, he would be able to fight alone with Li Xianyu and teach him a good lesson.

In the dense forest behind him came the sound of tiny footsteps, which was especially clear in the silent night. Li Peiyun’s ears moved. Looking back, he was wearing jeans and flip flops. His upper body was a narrow eyed man with a white T-shirt. He was walking towards him.

Looking at his face, he said with a smile, “What’s the matter?”

Li Peiyun restrained his anger and looked as usual. “Nothing much. What can I do for you?”

He nodded and replied in a loud voice, “Emperor is coming out of seclusion. I will take you to see her.”
