Cangyun Continent, a continent where vindictiveness and infidelity coexist.

Half of the people on Cangyun Continent had spiritual roots and the attributes of spiritual roots were divided into two types: heavenly spiritual roots and earth spiritual roots.

The heavenly spiritual root was the cultivation of true qi, focusing on composition and nourishment, literature and medicine. There were many benefits of true qi. Those who practice Qi essence could cultivate immortality and reach enlightenment, and even bring the dead back to life.

The earth spiritual root was to cultivate fighting spirit, and martial artists were respected. Those who could be called overlords on the mainland were all people who had reached the peak of their fighting spirit.

Ordinary people without spiritual roots lived an ordinary life and did day-to-day labor.

Qi Yan’s identity this time was the supporting male with heavenly spiritual root, Qi Yan, the eldest son of the Qi family!

The female lead’s name was Zhan NiShang, she was the first daughter of the Zhan family. The Zhan family members had spiritual roots for generations, but she, the eldest daughter, was a solid waste material, which made the Zhan family’s patriarch Zhan FengYun very embarrassed. Even in front of outsiders, he was full of dislike for this daughter.

As a result, in the past sixteen years, Zhan NiShang had suffered all kind of stares and neglect. She even lost her mother prematurely and had no one. In this huge Zhan mansion, even a concubine could ride on her head.

How could they ever thought that Zhan NiShang was drugged by a concubine when she was young. The poison destroyed her spiritual roots, but it didn’t dissipate. In a coincidence, Zhan NiShang got rid of the poison, stole ancient books, and used the excess true qi to form a second earth spiritual root, becoming the only person in Cangyun continent with double spiritual roots!

Like a phoenix, she retaliated against those who had bullied her like an evil spirit. She ruined the appearance of the concubine mother, injured the spiritual roots of the concubine sister, broke the bones of the servants, and finally domineeringly severed relations with the Zhan family.

These series of actions that she had done was seen by the leader of the demonic sect, the venerable Lou GuXiu, and left some impressions of her in his heart. In the various events that followed, he shared the joys and sorrows with her, knowing each other and meeting each other. But Zhan NiShang didn’t want to be with him, instead she thought about the Qi family’s young master, ‘Qi Yan’, who sneaked in to see her and brought her food and medicine when she was bullied in Zhan family.

Knowing that his sweetheart actually liked Qi Yan, Lou GuXiu was blackened. He slaughtered 18 members of the Qi family, cut off Qi Yan’s head, and took it back to Zhan NiShang. Zhan NiShang was naturally cried heartbreakingly, she never thought that the person she liked would be slaughtered like this.

So, she lived in seclusion in the mountains and forests, practicing her true qi hard just to avenge Qi Yan. However, she fell under Lou GuXiu’s domineering over and over again. She finally forgot about revenge and lived happily with Lou GuXiu.

Qi Yan felt that the ‘Qi Yan’ in the original work was the turning point that highlighted the happy life of the male and female lead afterward.

At the same time, it was very unlucky that Qi Yan’s possession time happened to be when Lou GuXiu came to slaughter the Qi family.

……Dressed as a young man, he had not even enjoy a day of blessing, yet now he was going to be beheaded?

In two hours, Lou GuXiu would come……

Qi Yan was silent in his room, hoping to come up with a plan to deal with it before Lou GuXiu came.

Suddenly, light flashed in his mind, Qi Yan stood up abruptly, and walked outside without saying a word.

“Aii! Young master, where are you going!” Before Qi Yan’s personal attendant could enter the house with tea, he saw his young master galloping away like the wind. He wanted to follow, but he was holding something in his hand, and could only call his young master loudly.

Unfortunately, his young master didn’t even stop for a moment, and disappeared under the moss-covered archway.

Using his true qi, Qi Yan leaped up lightly. After several ups and downs, he stood at the gate of the Demon Sect with his chest raised.

When several magic cultivators saw Qi Yan, they were taken aback for a moment. After a while, they remembered, and ran over with their teeth and claws open, cursing and swearing.

“How courageous! You dare to break into the powerhouse of the demon sect?!”

Qi Yan’s face did not change color. He looked at the demonic cultivator who was surrounding him and said with a serious expression: “Take me to see your leader!”

“Presumptuous! Is our leader someone you can see if you want to see?”

Hearing this, Qi Yan touched his chin thoughtfully. Just when the demonic cultivator thought he was giving up, he suddenly clapped his palms and looked directly at them innocently.

“Ah, isn’t it?”

Demonic cultivator: “…” Is this person mentally ill?

Before the demonic cultivator could say anything, Qi Yan muttered to himself, “Do I have to write a letter of visit? But I came in a hurry and didn’t write it… why don’t I write one now? But there is no paper and no pen here, how can I write it? Hey, can you lend me pen and paper? I can give you money…”

Demonic cultivator: “……”

This person is really mentally ill……

The demonic cultivators glanced at each other and were about to drive Qi Yan away, only to hear the wind make a loud noise. Several demonic cultivators recognized the overwhelming aura and knelt down together, trembling and not daring to make a sound.

In the blink of an eye, a man in a black robe stood in the open space. His perfectly carved face adorned with exquisite facial features, as if he was the darling of Heaven. His slender figure was hidden under the long black robe, as if he could not stand still to strike up a conversation. Currently, his red eyes were fixed on Qi Yan, who was surrounded by demonic cultivators.

Qi Yan felt that someone was coming and raised his head to look directly at him. The two gaze collided and they didn’t speak for a long time, there was a dead silence around them.

After about a few minutes, Qi Yan bypassed the demonic cultivators and walked straight to the black-robed man.

Standing less than five meters apart, Qi Yan suddenly raised a smile. He looked at the man politely and said, “Are you here to give me a pen and paper? Thank you. I’m really bothering you!”

Black-robed man: “…”

Demonic cultivators: “…” That’s enough, let’s go quickly! We think it’s too shameless to kill you, ah!!

Qi Yan walked around the black-robed man, wondering: “Where’s the pen and paper?” After a pause, he added as if promising, “I brought the silvers and I will definitely give it to you.”

This time, the man was no longer silent, his voice was mellow and pleasant, as melodious as a guqin.

“Qi Yan?”

“Yeah, it’s me.” Qi Yan nodded, “Do you recognize me?”

The black-robed man glanced at him contemptuously and did not answer his question, but asked again: “What are you looking for the sect leader for?”

Qi Yan waved his hand and said casually: “I want him to treat my sister well!”

“Your sister?”

“That’s right! NiShang!” Qi Yan naturally said: “NiShang is like my own sister. If this gentleman can see the sect leader, please tell the leader to treat my sister well. He has to marry my sister openly and honestly!”

“Also, my sister left the Zhan family. She has no maiden family, so I am her maiden family! I can sit on the elder’s seat on the day they get married and they can just worship me!”

“Hey, hey, this little guy, are you listening or not?”

After hearing the word “NiShang”, the black-robed man narrowed his eyes dangerously and looked at Qi Yan carefully. When he heard Qi Yan addressing him as little guy like a servant, he gently raised the corner of his mouth.

[Lou GuXiu’s favorability towards Qi Yan +5, current favorability: -55]

……

Damn it, that’s a lot of negative!

Lou GuXiu looked at Qi Yan with interested eyes, wondering whether to destroy the Qi family or not. After all, this fool was also a bit interesting.

“I said this brother.” Qi Yan glared displeasedly, “Did you hear me? If you hear it, report it to your sect leader. If you’re not listening, lend me pen and paper. I’ll write a letter of visit and say it myself.”

Demonic cultivators: “…” You haven’t given up borrowing pen and paper yet!

Lou GuXiu raised his eyebrows and said in a faint tone: “You go and say it yourself.”

“Where’s the pen and paper?”

Lou GuXiu’s handsome face was rarely cracked. There was a trace of undetected helplessness in his tone, “There is no need for a letter of visit.”

“No need?” Qi Yan repeated. After a while, he curled his lips in disgust, “Your demon sect doesn’t pay much attention to etiquette.”

Lou GuXiu：……

Are you trying to force me to exterminate your whole family?
