Martial Arts: I Have Diligence Reward System

"If I absorb your Qi Blood, I can condense your avatar, and then if I kill that avatar, your main body will die, right?"

Xu Baiyan asked again, nervous.

She had no idea where Su Yue got his intel from, but she had to ask clearly.

Crash!

Crash!

Crash!

The chains shook like never before. If the Spirit Slave Demon actually had eyes, they’d be brimming with tears right now.

Finally, she’s figured it out.

You idiot, you finally figured it out.

I can finally be freed, finally die.

Everything about the Spirit Slave Demon was already bound to Cang Ji’s chains; it had no chance of escape at all.

Death was its only release.

"So that’s how it is. How can you be this stupid, not telling me earlier?"

Xu Baiyan gave the chain a kick, then started complaining at the Spirit Slave Demon, face full of displeasure.

How did such a dumb beast ever cultivate up to Grandmaster level.

No wonder it got caught by Cang Ji and turned into a slave.

Serves you right for being this stupid.

Woo woo woo!

The Spirit Slave Demon wanted to explain, but couldn’t be bothered anymore!

It had been enduring pain every waking moment; the chance to be freed had finally arrived.

Say whatever you like, curse however you want.

As long as you can successfully kill me, you can curse me all you want.

"Come on then, all the Spiritual Qi, over here."

Xu Baiyan reined in all the lightning over her body.

Boom!

At last, the Spirit Slave Demon could recklessly bestow its inherent Qi Blood upon Xu Baiyan.

All these years, it had been suppressing its own innate Qi Blood, purely because it was afraid Cang Ji would take it and use it.

Now its savior had arrived, and the Qi Blood it had been suppressing was completely released.

"Huh, old meatball, your Qi Blood can actually help me cultivate too!"

Xu Baiyan restrained her lightning; in an instant, a layer of bloody glow shrouded her skin.

Right now, Xu Baiyan could clearly feel it.

The Spirit Slave Demon’s Qi Blood circulated one full cycle inside her body, then gathered in the palm of her left hand.

Xu Baiyan could confirm the Qi Blood was harmless.

Even though this Qi Blood couldn’t be absorbed, while it was circulating through her Qi ring it still had the effect of taking a pill—and it was the top-quality kind, the type that didn’t even need to be refined.

Simply miraculous.

Clatter, clatter!

The Spirit Slave Demon trembled twice, counting as its response to Xu Baiyan.

"You stingy, miserly big meatball, you actually couldn’t bear to let me use this before, what a cheapskate!"

Xu Baiyan muttered under her breath.

The Spirit Slave Demon started doubting its whole demon life.

Who was it that kept tirelessly pouring Qi Blood into you, and who was it that blasted it with lightning without a word.

Who kept trying, again and again, to communicate with you, and who never listened to a single explanation.

Forget it.

It had lived so many years, alone, in pain, with no hope of escape. Now the Spirit Slave Demon had only one goal left: hurry up and die, hurry up and be freed.

To the Spirit Slave Demon, death was just another turn of the cycle.

Its understanding of death was completely different from that of the human race; all it wanted was to die quickly.

To fully transfer half of its innate Qi Blood would take several days.

Starting today, Xu Baiyan finally had one more task.

...

Su Yue lay on the wall for a while, then went back into the little room.

Because it was raining outside, cold icy drops slapping his face all over... forget it, my heart actually feels pretty pleased.

Sitting in the room, Su Yue felt a bit bored.

Sleep?

No way. In the Damp Realm, he’d never be able to sleep in this lifetime. He could recover stamina without sleeping anyway, so why waste time sleeping, and it wasn’t safe besides.

What’s on the other side of this wall?

Suddenly, Su Yue found himself interested in the wall of the little room.

...

Available Effort Points: 90012

1: Sleep Pardon

2: Price of Love (next use consumes 5500 Effort Points)

3: Save Your Dog Life

4: Human and Ghost Are Different

5: Sneaky Invisibility

6: Deaf and Blind

Qi Blood value: 3222 calories.

...

Even though he’d just spent 20000 Effort Points, thanks to fighting a hundred rank-five foes in a row, Su Yue’s point gains weren’t bad. He still had over ninety thousand left now.

With this many Effort Points, burning another five thousand was no big deal. Perfect chance to see what exactly was inside the Divine Elder Hall.

Effort Points -5000

Su Yue activated the X-ray Vision skill.

Swish.

The instant it activated, Su Yue was scared half to death, even dropping back on his ass, dragging the little wooden table down with him.

Guess what Su Yue saw?

Cang Ji’s head.

That’s right.

After Su Yue turned on X-ray Vision, he was directly face-to-face with Cang Ji, their faces practically stuck together, eye-to-eye.

It was like seeing a ghost.

Precisely because of that, Su Yue got scared out of his wits; if his guts weren’t big, he might’ve gone into shock on the spot.

Cang Ji, a pre–absolute peak cultivator, staring back at you from ten-odd centimeters away—who wouldn’t be scared.

But after a few seconds, Su Yue came back to his senses.

Cang Ji couldn’t see him at all; Su Yue had only managed to spook himself.

He’d looked through the wall, and it just so happened Cang Ji was also sitting right behind that wall.

Cang Ji seemed to be "facing the wall in reflection," his gaze focused right on the wall, which made it look like he was staring straight at Su Yue.

Su Yue stood up and twisted his waist a bit.

Sure enough, Cang Ji was still that corpse-like figure, both pupils faintly twitching as he stared at the wall.

False alarm.

Su Yue really wanted to kick this beast Cang Ji to death—scaring people like that without paying for their fright.

"Wait, when I talk to my sis, will he be able to hear us, walls have ears and all that!"

Su Yue hadn’t even finished catching his breath when his heart shot back up into his throat.

At this moment, Su Yue noticed Heiye kneeling behind Cang Ji, his lips moving as if reporting something.

Sadly, Su Yue couldn’t hear a thing.

He snapped back.

Walls having ears? Not happening.

This wall had to be made of some special material, so Su Yue couldn’t hear what Cang Ji and the others were saying; by the same logic, Cang Ji also couldn’t hear his voice.

Makes sense—if he’d heard Su Yue was human, how could he stay this calm.

"What are those two beasts talking about? Cang Ji’s expression even looks a bit pained!"

Su Yue squatted, observing Cang Ji from up close.

He was really close, like standing on the other side of a mirror watching Cang Ji. He could clearly see every pore and wrinkle.

Heiye was kneeling behind Cang Ji instead, so Su Yue could only make out the rough outline.

"Gotta spend Effort Points again!"

Su Yue sighed. Curiosity really does kill the cat!

Activate Deaf: Effort Points -5000

Deaf and Blind activated together: Effort Points -10000

In the blink of an eye, Su Yue’s Effort Points were down to 75012.

Never earn enough, never have enough to spend.

When will I ever be really rich, the kind that never worries about money.

...

"Divine Elder, there are already over thirty thousand Owl Flame Lice nesting inside you. If this keeps going, it will be very dangerous!"

Su Yue finally heard Heiye’s voice.

He sounded genuinely anxious.

"Hmph, Lin Dongqi tried to use a poisonous Ice Heart to plot against me, Cang Ji. He’s simply delusional!

"I can’t dissolve the cold poison, but I can suppress it with Owl Flame Lice.

"As long as you don’t spread the word, no one in this world will know that Owl Flame Lice are nesting inside me!

"The human race won’t be able to exploit this flaw of mine. I have to reach the absolute peak!"

Cang Ji’s face was iron-blue.

On the other side of the wall, Su Yue’s heart was pounding wildly.

Lin Dongqi’s heart was poisoned, and he tried to use that heart to plot against Cang Ji?

The key thing is, this beast Cang Ji actually noticed Lin Dongqi’s scheme?

Just what the hell was going on.

Spy within a spy, scheme within a scheme?

Su Yue squatted down again, studying Cang Ji’s face.

Sure enough, in the depths of Cang Ji’s eyes, there seemed to be a few tiny, tiny red light dots, so small they were almost invisible to the naked eye.
