Seeking Fortune and Avoiding Evil in the Cultivation World

Chapter 77: Chapter 77: Blessings and Misfortunes Intertwined, The Attraction of Destiny

”Is it destiny?”

”It can also be said that this is the guidance of destiny, the guidance of the Life Chart.”

Jiang Fan squinted his eyes.

He felt that his understanding of his Life Chart, Great Blessings Equal to Heaven, seemed to have deepened further.

Indeed, he possessed immense destiny that could help him obtain various opportunities.

But likewise, various tribulations would follow.

Even if he didn’t go out and stayed at home, he might still encounter tribulations.

He himself would become the center of tribulation, constantly attracting Tribulation Qi.

That’s why these Red Eyebrow Army did not go elsewhere but came to his place.

This was not a coincidence but a kind of inevitability.

”There is no free lunch in the world.”

”The greater the benefits, the greater the responsibility one must bear.”

”Since he enjoys endless destiny, he will also attract countless tribulations.”

”Therefore, if he wants to cope with future tribulations, he needs to continuously enhance his strength.”

”Otherwise, one day he will surely die under tribulations.”

Jiang Fan clenched his fists.

Undoubtedly, the Life Chart on him is a double-edged sword.

It is precisely because of the endless destiny that helps him escape his original destiny.

But it will also lead him to face endless tribulations.

This is like being constantly hunted by a monster, forcing him to keep moving forward.

If he stops moving forward, he will definitely perish and be completely devoured by tribulations.

Yet even so, he would not give up the benefits brought by this Life Chart.

Just like a wealthy person from a past life once said, he never wanted to be poor in this life; if wealthy, he could find solutions even when facing challenges in a villa.

But if poor, he could only cry in a factory.

The same logic applies now.

If he was still an ordinary person, he would likely have long since been unable to withstand the oppression of the Dragon King Gang and become a corpse.

He certainly wouldn’t have had the chance to live here in Yunze City.

Boom~~

In no time, Jiang Fan also piled these corpses together, then used Corpse-Dissolving Water to instantly dissolve the corpses, allowing them to completely merge into the earth.

In this way, no one would know they had ever been here.

Bang!

At this moment, a message instantly entered the depths of his conscious sea: ”You have slain Peng Wei and others who attacked in the night, traversed a killing tribulation, and gained three hundred and fifty Luck Points, along with one Ninth-Grade Opportunity.”

”Not bad.”

Jiang Fan smiled faintly, feeling very satisfied.

With the addition of these three hundred and fifty Luck Points, he now had a total of six hundred and sixty Luck Points.

If he continues to accumulate for a while, he will soon reach over a thousand Luck Points.

The death of Peng Wei and the others brought him such great benefits, truly a worthwhile death.

However, he did not expect to bring a Ninth-Grade Opportunity either.

He wondered what kind of opportunity it was.

Thinking of this, he gently clicked on the opportunity light point in the depths of his conscious sea.

Then a message spread: ”After three days, at noon, go to a fish vendor stall in the West Street Market for a Ninth-Grade Opportunity.”

”Hmm?!”

Jiang Fan blinked, although he didn’t know why the Ninth-Grade Opportunity appeared there, he would go and see in three days, believing it certainly wouldn’t disappoint him.

......

A few hours later, the sun rose.

Yunze City, a certain house.

This was where Bat King Yang Qin resided.

He was sitting cross-legged on the ground, in ragged clothes, with fresh blood occasionally seeping out. His body had numerous knife wounds, clearly indicating severe injuries.

Undoubtedly, in the prior battle at the City Lord’s Mansion, although he succeeded in assassinating Grandmaster Mu Da and seized Mu Da’s Essence Blood, he was also besieged by many martial artists from the City Lord’s Mansion.

He expended tremendous effort to escape from the City Lord’s Mansion.

However, for him, this was not considered a fatal injury.

As long as he devours enough fresh blood, he can rapidly recover.

”Having waited this long, could it be that Ge Lirong and others have faced an accident, already dead?”

”What a bunch of losers.”

”Only capturing some Blood Slaves, yet some mishap occurred.”

Yang Qin’s expression turned grim.

He completely didn’t expect such an accident to occur.

Originally, he was still waiting for Ge Lirong and others to bring back Blood Slaves and aid him in recovering from injuries.

Who could have imagined that until dawn, they hadn’t returned?

He knew Ge Lirong and the others must have encountered an accident.

Otherwise, they wouldn’t have failed to return by now.

Of course, he wasn’t concerned about the life and death of Ge Lirong and others, only lamenting their failure to capture Blood Slaves, which slowed the recovery of his injuries.

If his whereabouts are discovered by the Yunze City government, then he’ll be utterly doomed.

”Brother Yang.”

At this moment, a young figure arrived before Bat King Yang Qin.

The person was none other than Li Haoran, a direct descendant of the Li Family from Tonghe County, and Martial Artist of the Refining Organ Realm.

Undoubtedly, the Li Family and the Red Eyebrow Army had colluded, treacherous sycophants with each other.

Initially, the Li Family did not wish to have many connections with the Red Eyebrow Army.

But unexpected events occur in life.

Since leaving Tonghe County and coming to Yunze City, the Li Family immediately faced great peril.

The Lu Family of Yunze City personally visited, coercing the Li Family to join the Money Gang, becoming one of its halls.

To intimidate the Li Family, they even killed Li Shi’an, the patriarch of the Li Family.

Numerous elders of the Li Family were also placed under house arrest by the Lu Family.

This is the harshness of chaotic times.

While the Li Family was dominant in Tonghe County, ruling as overlords with no one daring to provoke them.

But in facing the mightier Lu Family, they were merely helpless lambs.

This is the so-called big fish eating the small shrimp.

Originally, the Li Family planned to come to Yunze City to avoid tribulation, who knew they would still be swallowed.

Moreover, they had no choice but to comply.

Thus, Li Haoran became the new patriarch of the Li Family and had to humble himself, becoming subservient to the Money Gang.

Yet this also ignited boundless hatred in Li Haoran.

For the sake of revenge and liberating from the Lu Family’s control, he chose to collaborate with the Red Eyebrow Army.

Once Yunze City is breached, he could not only avenge but also rise to power.

”You’ve come, is there anything?”

Seeing Li Haoran’s figure, Bat King Yang Qin said flatly, maintaining a degree of distrust towards this collaborator as the person was not a close subordinate.

Nonetheless, being in Yunze City, the person could be considered a local, and their help was significant.

In fact, his successful assassination of Mu Da was closely linked to Li Haoran’s assistance.

Therefore, he still needed the person’s help to pass through this most perilous time.
