Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

Zhao Tianji was very hesitant. This was not in their plan.

In their original plan, they would take advantage of this opportunity to swindle some spirit stones from the Myriad Treasure Chamber of Commerce and earn some extra money.

However, this sudden situation was really unexpected. If they did not seize this opportunity, this fool’s money would definitely fall into the hands of others.

“Most importantly, the kid in front of us was really too rich. Didn’t you see how much money he had?”

“I saw it, I saw it all!”

Zhao Tianji gritted his teeth and stared outside. He could not see anything here, but he had seen Li Yuanqing take out so many materials with his own eyes just now. Those were all treasures that were one in a million. If he could snatch those things, they would no longer have to swindle here and could do some serious business.

As long as he killed the kid in front of him, it would be that simple. As long as he killed the kid in front of him, he would have everything he needed. At that time, everything would be so perfect and he would not have to be afraid anymore.

“Have you thought about it? Just this once! Just this once, you only need this once!”

The Third Brother’s urging made Zhao Tianji very anxious. He felt that what the Third Brother said made sense. This was the only chance in their lives. As long as they seized this opportunity, they would be able to enjoy wealth and glory.

Who cared where this kid’s things came from? In any case, it was their treasure now that it had fallen into their hands.

Outside the window, Li Yuanqing’s lips curled into a smile. He was waiting for the two boys to make a decision.

Not long after, the door of the hut opened. The third brother ran out excitedly and hugged Li Yuanqing.

“Young Master, you’re really too lucky. I’ve already gone back and asked just now. Now, you only need to pay a medium-grade spirit stone to include all these top teaching services. You don’t need to pay any more fees to become the top alchemist on this continent!”

......

“Really? It sounds like a very good deal.”

“Of course it’s true. You’re my brother. When have I ever lied to you? The two of us are like brothers. Moreover, I’ve already helped you fight for it. You don’t have to pay any more!”

Li Yuanqing smiled and nodded. He looked at the two of them happily and said, “That’s great. I must become the most powerful array master on this continent. I’ll leave it to you.”

“Brother, you’re too polite to tell us this. I should be the one thanking you. If not for you, the two of us wouldn’t have opened today. However, we still have a final step to sign up and confirm. You need to come inside with us.”

Li Yuanqing followed the third brother into the hut in a daze.

They used a few spirit stones that did not have much spiritual energy to set up something that pretended to be an altar in the hut.

Actually, Li Yuanqing could tell at a glance that these things were all decorations and fake. They were useless and were purely used to fool people. However, he still pretended not to know anything.

“Little brother, as long as you stand on this array formation, someone will ask you some questions later. Answer truthfully. At that time, we will help you arrange it.”

The third brother patted Li Yuanqing’s back. Zhao Tianji suddenly grabbed Li Yuanqing’s wrist.

“Young Master, what do you want?”

Li Yuanqing turned around. His eyes were very clean. He hid all his thoughts. The two of them could not tell anything.

Zhao Tianji really wanted to stop him. He was really worried about the two of them. They just wanted to do business. If they really killed someone, would the people from the Myriad Treasure Chamber of Commerce forgive them and let them go?

The third brother suddenly pulled Zhao Tianji’s hand away and said with a smile, “It’s nothing. Don’t worry. He just wants to give you a few last instructions. You must answer seriously later. Although we can help you arrange it, you have to be more serious. You can’t say anything extreme that will make people hate you.”

“Don’t worry, I won’t say anything.”

As Li Yuanqing spoke, he stood on the altar and looked at the two of them.

The third brother waved at Li Yuanqing and said, “Little brother, you have to face that way to see them. The two of us won’t talk to you later. You must work hard.”

“Sure thing.”

Li Yuanqing cooperated and turned to face the wall.

A black dagger appeared in the third brother’s hand. The dagger was still flickering with a dense light and was actually covered in special venom.

He slowly leaned towards Li Yuanqing. If this saber strike landed, Li Yuanqing, this rich young master, would probably die. The treasures on this kid belonged to the two of them. They would never be able to earn so many spirit stones in their lives.

The third brother seemed to have seen his perfect life. He tightened his grip. As long as he slashed down, everything would be in his hands.

However, just as he was about to attack, Zhao Tianji suddenly grabbed his wrist and did not let him stab him.

The third brother glared at Zhao Tianji angrily and wanted to shake off his hand. However, Zhao Tianji refused to let go no matter what. His eyes were very firm, and he seemed to be determined to stop him.

Li Yuanqing seemed to have heard the commotion behind him and turned around to look.

The two of them hurriedly placed their hands behind them to block Li Yuanqing from seeing the dagger in their hands.

“What’s wrong? What happened? I don’t see anyone.”

The third brother smiled and comforted him. “Little brother, why are you in such a hurry? The reviewers are not ready yet. Wait for them to prepare first. After they are all ready, this array formation will be activated.”

“Alright, I’ll wait a while longer.”

Li Yuanqing was about to turn around again when Zhao Tianji suddenly pulled Li Yuanqing away from the altar and to his side.

“Little brother, you’re really unlucky today. The reviewers are busy interviewing the others. I’m afraid you’ll have to wait until tomorrow. They’re quite busy with work. Why don’t you go back today and wait for our news tomorrow?”

Li Yuanqing was stunned. He glanced at Zhao Tianji and asked curiously, “Why didn’t you attack?”

Zhao Tianji had originally planned to resolve the problem between him and his third brother after sending Li Yuanqing away. He did not react to Li Yuanqing’s intentions. He turned his head and stared at Li Yuanqing. After thinking for a while, he suddenly felt even stranger.

“Little brother, what do you mean by asking this?”

Li Yuanqing looked at him and said, “As long as you didn’t stop him just now, wouldn’t I be dead? Why didn’t you let him do it?”

“What nonsense are you talking about? We’re a place for serious enrollment. Why should we kill you?”

Zhao Tianji pushed Li Yuanqing away.

Seeing that the matter had been exposed and could no longer be hidden, the third brother took out his dagger and stabbed it at Li Yuanqing. “Why are you still wasting your breath on him? This kid has already discovered us. If we let this kid go, we won’t be able to bear the consequences. Hurry up and kill him!”

As the third brother spoke, he had already arrived in front of Li Yuanqing. The poisonous dagger was also aimed at Li Yuanqing’s heart.

That place was so close to his heart. As long as it scratched his skin, the poison would immediately invade his heart. Li Yuanqing would not be able to last long before he fell to the ground.

Third Brother was very confident in his dagger. He had already used this thing to deal with countless enemies. There were many vicious people among those enemies, but no one could survive in front of his dagger. Those people had really turned into bones. The only one who could survive was him, the ruthless Third Brother.

But this time, he was disappointed.

The third brother watched as his dagger stabbed deep into Li Yuanqing’s heart. Li Yuanqing also revealed a shocked expression, as if he had never expected to die here. The third brother thought that he had already won everything.

But just as he was about to celebrate, he felt a sudden chill in his chest. He looked at the black dagger stuck in his chest and found it familiar, yet so unfamiliar. He had never observed his dagger from this angle before. Why did this dagger grow so strange? This thought flashed through the third brother’s mind.

He reached out to pull the dagger out, but he had lost all his strength. He no longer had the strength to hold the dagger in his hand. His body gradually went limp.

Zhao Tianji watched as his brother committed suicide in front of him. Shock flashed across his eyes. He did not know how Li Yuanqing did it.

“Who exactly are you?”

Zhao Tianji took out a long saber and placed it beside him. He took a step back and retreated to the corner of the room, trying his best to distance himself from Li Yuanqing.

Li Yuanqing looked at Zhao Tianji coldly.

“You’re very smart.”

“Who are you? I have no grudge against you. We brothers have never provoked you. Why did you kill him?”

“Never provoked me?”

Li Yuanqing raised his hand and the small black dagger slowly floated in midair. The blood in his chest had already frozen. The blood in his body had been corroded by the venom of the black dagger and had become a solid existence, as sticky as black oil.

Cold sweat flowed down Zhao Tianji’s forehead like rain. He tried his best to find an excuse for himself, but he realized that he could not find any way to quibble. There was only one way left, and that was to escape quickly.

“Little brother, I was merciful just now. No! I shouldn’t have wanted to kill you. I’ve offended you. Please let me live. I will never appear in front of you again!”

Zhao Tianji acutely sensed the dangerous situation he was in. He could only beg Li Yuanqing for forgiveness or use it to escape.

Li Yuanqing walked towards Zhao Tianji step by step. It was as if his footsteps were stepping on Zhao Tianji’s chest. It was so heavy.

“Senior, I know my mistake. Senior, give me another chance. I didn’t know you had such strength. I shouldn’t have thought of framing you!”

Zhao Tianji begged helplessly, but it did not slow Li Yuanqing down at all. Moreover, the black dagger slowly floated over and stopped in front of Li Yuanqing.

“You want to live?”

Li Yuanqing’s question was very light, but it was so heavy.

Zhao Tianji knelt on the ground without hesitation and kept kowtowing to Li Yuanqing.

“Senior, let me live. My life is like an ant. It’s useless to you. Let me go. I will remember your kindness in the future and be your slave!”

“Be my slave.” Li Yuanqing recalled these words.

“If you need it, I can do anything!”

Li Yuanqing nodded slightly and raised Zhao Tianji’s face to study it carefully.

“You were the one who came up with the idea to use the Myriad Treasure Chamber of Commerce’s academy to deceive others.”

“Senior, please spare my life. I just want to find a way to survive. I didn’t mean to offend you. I have absolute longing for the Myriad Treasure Chamber of Commerce, that’s why I came up with this plan…”

“Oh? You mean you want to work in the Myriad Treasure Chamber of Commerce very much.”

Zhao Tianji was already at a loss for words because of Li Yuanqing. Li Yuanqing had the power to kill him at any time. Why did he suddenly say this? Could it be that this senior would still let an enemy like him live?

“If Senior can give me a chance, I’m naturally willing to do my best at the Myriad Treasure Chamber of Commerce!”

Zhao Tianji looked up at Li Yuanqing, not daring to breathe.

“Although you have evil intentions, you’re quite smart. If you hadn’t stopped him just now, I’m afraid you would be a corpse like him now. However, I think you still have room for guidance. Follow me in the future.”

“Senior!”

Zhao Tianji immediately lay on the ground again and kowtowed ten times. This was what it meant to survive a calamity. He had never experienced such a panic in his life.

He had never seen such a powerful senior. He did not even know how his third brother died, but he had already turned into a pool of blood. He could save his life now and think about the future.

“Thank you for your love, Senior. Thank you for your love!”

“Alright, go to the Myriad Treasure Chamber of Commerce to look for Zhao Tai’an tomorrow. He will tell you what to do. This is an opportunity and a challenge for you. As long as you take the wrong step, you know what the outcome will be.”
