“Sh*t. I have a spell for backstabbing. Why can’t I use it?” Duan Jiude was unusually excited and felt insulted. He stared questioningly at Buttface and Xu Que.

Fortunately, a Shielding Spell had been set up around them, otherwise this would’ve disturbed the Ji Family’s entire backyard.

“If I say it won’t work, it means it won’t work. If you don’t believe me, ask the little lad,” Buttface scoffed disdainfully and pointed at Xu Que.

Xu Que seemed to be in deep thought, “What Buttface said is right. Your spell isn’t cunning enough. Backstabbing is child’s play and not impressive at all.”

“That’s right, it’s simply not worthy of our Exploding Heavens Faction. Come look at this, the spells that I’ve come up with are obviously much better,” Buttface said, laying out a model of the Spell Disk.

The Spell Disk was a layout that set out all spells, showing their effects. However, in order to really let these spells achieve their full power, the people using them had to go to the scenes to arrange them in person.

When Duan Jiude looked at them, he immediately yelled, “You old fart, aren’t you just adding a bit more venom in this formation? What’s so great about it?”

“Oh, it’s better than backstabbing.”

“Sh*t! Buttface, you want to fight? I’m willing to.”

“That’s enough. Both of you stop. What’s there to fight about? Can’t you just combine the two formations?”

“Combine?”

“Oh, that makes sense. After combining them, it’ll become backstabbing with a poisoned knife?”

“No, no, you can also upgrade it a little bit and make it even better. Such as coating a knife with poison and attacking the head.”

“Sh*t, that’s disgusting.”

.....

They stayed up all night, discussing their killing plans, and also playing a few rounds of cards...

In the end, hundreds of spells were successfully arranged and combined into one. Overnight, they slipped out of Tian Sha City and set the spells.

.....

The sky gradually brightened, and many disciples of the Dark Shadow Pagoda Sect were already sitting cross-legged, facing the rising sun to absorb Qi.

The door of the attic in the Ji Family’s backyard was pushed open.

Several elders of the Ji Family came out of the door frowning, their faces full of fatigue. A night without sleep wasn’t that much for a cultivator.

But the Ji Family had spent the whole night discussing their next moves, as well as how to persuade the Drug God to help them.

They really couldn’t figure out what the Chang Family had promised to the Drug God, and why the attitude of the Drug God had changed so much. It clearly meant that he stood on the side of the Chang Family.

“Qinghan!”

As Ji Qinghan walked into the attic, a slightly tired elderly voice stopped her.

Ji Qinghan paused for a moment, then turned to answer, “Grandpa, I am here!”

“You should test the waters with the Drug God, but don’t tell Wufeng about this. He’s in the sick bay, focusing on recovering. Don’t disturb him,” the old man said, sighing.

He was the Master of the Ji Family, and although he’d reached the True Celestial of the Great All-Embracing Heaven, he was also an old man.

There are ancestors of the Celestial Kings in the Dark Shadow Pagoda Sect. The future of the Ji Family depended on Ji Wufeng. If Ji Wufeng can’t regain the position of the Divine Son, the Ji Family was unlikely to have a future.

“Yes, grandpa, I understand,” Ji Qinghan nodded. There were some things that she knew she should do even without the Master mentioning them.

“Well, we have to try to reach an agreement. Remember not to upset the Drug God. Even if he doesn’t help this time, we can’t offend him,” the Master reminded her.

Ji Qinghan nodded again, “Grandpa, I know. But...if he refuses to help, what should we do?”

“If Wufeng’s illness is really incurable, maybe...it’s time to let Wuyun try to fight for the position of the Divine Son,” the Master said faintly, his voice full of loneliness and helplessness.

Ji Qinghan fell silent and stood still for a moment, but she didn’t say anything else. She bid farewell to the Master, then left.

.....

At the same time, in the backyard of the Dark Shadow Pagoda Sect’s Chang Family, three figures like ghosts were clinging tightly to the wall and perfectly avoiding detection by the many guards.

After some searching, they swiftly slipped into a room, set up a Shielding Spell, and pulled out a stick. With a smirk on their faces, they quietly approached a middle-aged man nearby who sitting on the ground cultivating.

PENG! PENG! PENG!

After a few seconds, amid a few muffled sounds, the middle-aged man fell to the ground and into a coma. There were several swollen patches on the back of his head.

“Sh*t! Teacher Buttface, aren’t you being too harsh?”

“Teacher Duan, you have the nerve to say that to me? You’ve made him more swollen than I have.”

“Hee, hee, hee, lad, I have to say, your Divine Aperture’s Shell is really useful. Even a True Celestial of the Great All-Embracing Heaven can’t detect us.”

“Oh, I’ve already told you that a True Celestial of the Great All-Embracing Heaven counts as nothing. Okay, don’t nag, quickly pack up, and act according to the plan.”

“Okay, I’ll tell grand master and the others first. I’m afraid the Dark Shadow Pagoda Sect is going to be in a big mess soon.”

“Hee, hee, hee, I’m afraid the whole Tian Sha City is going to be in a mess. Thinking about it makes me so excited!”

.....

After a while, the three figures slipped out of the room, but this time they were carrying a person wrapped up in a bundle. They quietly exited the backyard of the Chang Family home. The whole process had gone extremely smoothly.

As the sky brightened more, the children of the major families in the Dark Shadow Pagoda Sect became active, and the number of people going in and out of the backyard increased significantly.

However, everyone who passed the chamber didn’t notice anything unusual.

Four hours later, with a smile on his face, the Master of the Chang Family, walking slowly, came over with a large group of people.

“Drug God, did you have a good rest last night? A few friends of mine have come to visit you. I wonder if it’s convenient for you?” As the group of people arrived at the room, the Master of the Chang family took the initiative and asked.

The level and status of the Master of the Chang Family were no lower than the Drug God. Hence, he only spoke politely and lowered his posture slightly.

He also believed that the Drug God would definitely meet with him. After all, he’d come to discuss the cooperation that the two men had agreed upon.

However, the room was silent, and there was no response.

The smile on the Master of the Chang Family’s face gradually vanished, and he frowned.

Groaning a bit, he stepped forward to the door and gently knocked twice, “Drug God, are you okay?”

The room remained quiet.

This scared the Master of the Chang Family, and he felt that something was definitely wrong.

As he was about to push open the door, a voice suddenly came from behind him.

“So you’re already here. I wanted to talk to the Drug God about something, so I’ve come to visit. Please don’t be surprised!”

“Eh?” The Master of the Chang Family froze and turned his head. It was Qinghan.

The place where the Chang Family lived and also where the Ji Family and other clan forces lived were all within the territory of the Dark Shadow Pagoda Sect. The whole territory of the Dark Shadow Pagoda Sect could be said to be a combination of several large families.

Ji Qinghan coming over here at this moment was not unusual and didn’t require permission from the Chang Family.

However, the Master of the Chang family was at present dumbfounded.

He’d initially thought that the Drug God wasn’t in the room because he might’ve been attracted by the new conditions offered by the Ji Family, so he’d left overnight.

But now that Ji Qinghan had come over and said that she wanted to talk to the Drug God, the Master of the Chang family was relieved.

“So it’s Qinghan!”

The Master of the Chang Family smiled and waved his hand, “You’re welcome here. Everyone is from the same sect. But...”

The Master of the Chang family paused for a moment, pretending to feel awkward, “But I’m afraid the Drug God doesn’t have time to see you at the moment. I think something urgent must have come up. Please leave now.”

He gestured toward the guard to move her out.

Ji Qinghan didn’t move and smiled, “Elder Chang, I only want to see a glimpse of the Drug God. Why are you so protective?”

“Ha, ha, ha, what do you mean? I’m not being protective. I’m just afraid that you’ll disturb his rest. This is not the way of the Dark Shadow Pagoda Sect.” The Master smiled shallowly.

“Elder Chang, you should know that the Drug God had originally been invited by me. Now that I’ve come to see him, how can it be seen as disturbing him? You...” Ji Qinghan answered calmly.

Before she’d finished her sentence, there was a commotion in the front yard of the Chang Family’s house, followed by the sound of heavy footsteps. There was someone rushing over here.

“Bad news! Master, bad news! Something’s gone wrong!” A young disciple of the Chang Family hurried in panicked, bowing and shouting.

The Master of the Chang Family immediately frowned and said in a deep voice, “Scoundrel, why do you need to be so panicked? Can’t you stand up and speak properly?”

“Yes, sir!” The young disciple immediately stood up straight, lifted his head, and said, “The Drug God was captured and tied to the wall at the gates of our city. He seems to have been beaten, and rather badly.”

“What?” Everyone present, including the Master of the Chang Family and Ji Qinghan, stood open-mouthed with shocked expressions.

“The Drug God was captured? Hanging on the gates? And he’s been badly beaten? How...how could that be?”

The young disciple of the Chang Family had a bitter expression. “Master, you should go and see for yourself. This was done by the Exploding Heavens Faction. Now, they’re at the gates of the city, saying they want to play with some magic about greatly changing a live person, and in the end...in the end...”

“Scoundrel. This is outrageous!” The Master of the Chang family was furious, trembling with anger, and he yelled, “What happened? If you stammer again, I’ll punish your entire family.”

“Master, pardon me.”

The young disciple of the Chang Family jumped up and responded quickly, “In the end, they are throwing poop on the body of the Drug God and are providing a paid service. With one piece of magical Spirit Stones, you can have ten throws, and throwing at different parts of the body gives you different rewards. Apparently throwing into the mouth will gain the thrower an Inferior Celestial Artifact as a reward, and many surrounding cultivators are all having a go!”
