As a father, I just want to quietly watch you live a long life

Chapter 288 The Furnace Grandmaster Ascends the Tower to Kill You, I, the Bull Demon, Donʼt Care About the Big Picture!_2

```

”Itʼs actually you...”

Li Che held his fight hat tightly, his black robe billowing incessantly, and from beneath the Cute Bull Mask, a pair of eyes revealed shock and astonishment.

Because he had not expected that the person lurking in the shadows, who had bewitched Shangguan Qinglei and even taken out the Seven Elemental Divine Weapon to spur Shangguan Qinglei into attempting to harm Xi Xi...

Would actually be him!

Peaks rose abruptly from the earth, resembling swords imbued with flowing light, exuding a rampant and domineering Sword Intent!

Standing before Li Che was one of the four Elderʼs Peaks... Flowing Sword Peak!

Flowing Sword Peak!

The location of the Enforcement Hall of the Divine Sect Golden Light Branch!

Li Che took a deep breath, the air currents around him turbulent, clearly he was also somewhat shocked.

Xu Jiuqing...

It was actually him!

The Heaven and Earth Chessboard reflected this, instantly taking the position where Li Che stood as the Stellar Position, expanding continuously, slowly encircling and enveloping Flowing Sword Peak.

In Flowing Sword Peak, Li Che saw Xu Jiuqing sitting cross-legged.

Black Corpse Qi flames rose up from Xu Jiuqing.

Li Che had initially thought that there might be someone else on Flowing Sword Peak.

But it wasnʼt!

After several detections, he was certain...

It was Xu Jiuqing.

The Elder of the Enforcement Hall of the Golden Light Branch, was actually... an evil person from the Corpse God Cult!

This undercover act... had actually reached such a high position!

It was, simply put, far too surprising for Li Che.

Originally, Li Che had guessed that the one bearing the Seven Elemental Corpse Curse Seal must have reached the Divine Phase Realm.

The Divine Sect had only four Great Elders and the Sect Master Nan Lihuo as Divine Phase experts.

Since Sect Master Nan Lihuo had been ruled out as a suspect, that left the four Great Elders under suspicion.

Zhang Qing Zheng of Twin Sleeves Peak, Zhu Hong Dou of Red Cloud Peak, Xu Jiuqing of Flowing Sword Peak, and Weng Wuyu of Nanshan Peak!

Li Che initially focused his suspicions on Elder Weng Wuyu of Nanshan Peak.

But speculation is just speculation; he couldnʼt neglect the other three peaks.

Therefore, Li Che expanded the Heaven and Earth chessboard, continuously lashing out at the Corpse Curse Mark with the explosive power of Immaculate Heart Divinity.

It was as if a deity patrolling the mountain was conducting the search.

Upon investigating Twin Sleeves Peak, Zhang Qing Zheng seemed the least likely suspect, but he did not overlook him.

As expected, there was no response from the Corpse Curse Mark on Twin Sleeves Peak.

Then, it was Red Cloud Peak, followed by Flowing Sword Peak, and lastly Nanshan Peak.

But Li Che never thought...

That he would find the hiding Corpse God Cult rat just after investigating Flowing Sword Peak.

The world suddenly grew dead silent.

Wearing the Cute Bull Mask, Li Che let out a faint chuckle.

He couldnʼt help but think of that day, the scene where Xu Jiuqing came floating in, escorting the Inner Sect enforcer Zhao Jianmian.

Now that he thought about it...

The other party was clearly probing to see if he had exposed himself due to the loss of the Corpse Curse Mark.

And a righteous Sword Cultivator, who should be upright and unyielding like Li Qingshan, was actually an evil person from the Corpse God Cult.

No wonder he could hide within the Divine Sect for so long.

The past yearʼs act of a thief crying ”stop thief” was simply...

Exasperating to no end!

Youʼre so exasperating!

The killing intent in Li Cheʼs eyes was intense.

Thinking of Xu Jiuqing, the real culprit wanting to harm his daughter, flitting before his eyes and masquerading with a feigned façade.

Putting on an air of righteousness, swearing to root out the evil people of the Corpse God Cult...

Li Cheʼs desire to kill him became stronger than ever before!

”A righteous Sword Cultivatorʼs heart cannot possibly belong to an evil person from the Corpse God Cult ... those words, at that time, Xu Jiuqing must have been overjoyed in his heart,”

”A sense of pleasure from toying with everyone in the palm of his hand?”

The murderous intent in Li Cheʼs eyes couldnʼt be concealed.

He now wanted to slay Xu Jiuqing!

His desire to kill was exceedingly strong, impossible to hide, and he also... didnʼt need to!

What about the greater good?
