My Golden Core is a Star, do you call this cultivating?

Chapter 442: Qi Yuan Gets Roasted

Outside the cave, Yu Mengxian stood anxiously, her expression full of worry.
The Mixed-Blood Sect was too domineering, casually offering immortal jade to buy someone.

About half an hour later, a voice came from within the cave.

“How could I use a disciple’s treasure? Take the Heavenly Origin Stone back; I will personally visit the Mixed-Blood Sect,”
The voice of Fengling Celestial Sovereign was filled with both sighs and helplessness.

Even after becoming a Yang God, he couldn’t achieve total freedom or peace.
Of course, compared to other cultivators, Yang Gods still lived in great comfort.

Hearing this, Yu Mengxian was filled with gratitude.

However, Fengling Celestial Sovereign’s next words were like a bucket of cold water poured on her heart.

“The Mixed-Blood Sect has always been arrogant and overbearing, and Tuoba Lingyu is the most beloved granddaughter of the Mixed-Blood Sect’s ancestor. I’m afraid… even I may not be able to stop this.”

As he finished speaking, Fengling Celestial Sovereign’s figure faded and disappeared.

The meaning was clear—he might not be able to stop Tuoba Lingyu, subtly suggesting that Yu Mengxian should take Qi Yi and leave.

On the other side, Qi Yi, hearing this, looked emotional. “Master, this is all my fault.”

If it weren’t for her, her master wouldn’t have to suffer this humiliation.

“This is not your fault. If anyone is to blame, it’s that Tuoba Lingyu!”
Yu Mengxian’s emotions were complicated.

The Celestial Sovereign’s hint was obvious: take Qi Yi and leave.
Even though he was a Celestial Sovereign, in the Supreme Truth Celestial Realm, there were many things beyond his control.

His plan to visit the Mixed-Blood Sect was merely buying time for her to escape with Qi Yi.

But… escape?

Being targeted by the Mixed-Blood Sect, how could they escape?

Every cultivator in the Lower Three Heavens knew about the shamelessness of the Mixed-Blood Sect.
They captured people at will for their bloodlines.
Once targeted, there was almost no escape.

Yu Mengxian even suspected that trying to leave might be exactly what the Mixed-Blood Sect wanted.
It could be a trap.

“Master, the Mixed-Blood Sect is after me. I don’t want to implicate you,” Qi Yi said solemnly after thinking for a moment.

If she continued to seek her master’s protection, it might lead to her master’s death.

At this moment, Qi Yi more clearly understood the harsh realities of the cultivation world.

Back on Gongxing, some noble families still maintained a veneer of honor and moral principles.
But in the cultivation world, such things were meaningless.
Demonic cultivators might as well carve the word “Demon” on their foreheads to announce their nature.

In the Sixth Heaven, Ghost Emperor Heaven casually slaughtered countless souls to refine ghost banners, moving from one realm to another in a spree of killing.
Was there any great power that stopped them?

No.

In the Sixth Heaven, power was everything.

As Yu Mengxian looked at Qi Yi, the image of that certain Celestial Sovereign flashed through her mind.
If only she had the power of that Celestial Sovereign, how could Qi Yi have to suffer like this?

Back in that mysterious land, that Celestial Sovereign had vanished without a trace, and the robot Zero-One had found Yu Mengxian, asking her to deliver something to Qi Yuan.

Afterward, she took Qi Yi and left Gongxing. When she looked back, she found that Gongxing had disappeared.

“If only Gongxing were still around… If we had a way to return there, the Mixed-Blood Sect wouldn’t be able to find us,”
Yu Mengxian sighed wistfully.

Of course, this was nothing but a distant fantasy.
The entrance to the Fire Spirit Realm was too far away from here.
They would likely be intercepted by the Mixed-Blood Sect before they could reach it.

Suddenly, Yu Mengxian thought of something and couldn’t help but ask, “Does your brother… have any connection to Black Abyss?”

She recalled the figure she had seen at Black Abyss.

Qi Yi was puzzled, then shook her head. “No, I don’t think so.”

Her master on Gongxing had been Qi Yuan’s mother.
As for her feelings toward her younger brother, they were complicated.
She had only hoped for him to live an ordinary life and stay away from the turbulence of the world.

Who could have expected that he would suddenly become a Yang God Celestial Sovereign?

“Although… it’s possible that he might,” Qi Yi added thoughtfully.

After all, she didn’t know much about her brother.

Yu Mengxian frowned. “I thought I saw him among the prodigies of Black Abyss attending the Supreme Truth Debate Gathering.”

She was puzzled. If it were really Qi Yuan, why would he be standing among those prodigies?
The prodigies were merely Yin Gods.

“Huh?” Qi Yi was taken aback.

“Unfortunately, we’re of such low status that we can’t even get an audience with the people of Black Abyss,” Yu Mengxian lamented.

Even someone like Tuoba Lingyu from the Mixed-Blood Sect would probably have to wait a long time just to have a message delivered to one of the Black Abyss prodigies.

After all, prodigies of that caliber had countless people seeking to meet them. If you weren’t important, your message might never reach them.

“I sent someone to investigate earlier, and the message came back. The person I saw is called Blood Robe, the second-ranked prodigy of Black Abyss.
It’s rumored that he could become a Supreme Truth Realm Yang God. So, it probably isn’t… Qi Yuan,” Yu Mengxian said, referring to the investigation she had ordered while visiting Fengling Celestial Sovereign.

The results had just come back through a message from Zhao Yu.
She felt somewhat disappointed.
Without a face-to-face meeting, she could only rely on outside information to determine if it was him.
She still couldn’t be sure whether or not the person was Qi Yuan.

At this moment, Qi Yi frowned, thinking of something. Suddenly, she said, “If you want to know if it’s him… why don’t you just publicly insult him?”

For Yang God Celestial Sovereigns, if someone in the same world discussed or cursed them, they would often sense it.

Hearing this, Yu Mengxian’s expression turned strange. “You have a point.”

What if it really was Qi Yuan?
If it wasn’t, well, one insult wouldn’t hurt him.

If it was, that would be perfect!

Sometimes, it was easier to get a Yang God’s attention by insulting them.

“I’ll do it,” Qi Yi said, immediately taking action. She imagined Qi Yuan’s face in her mind, her lips parting slightly, her cheeks flushing red.
“Qi Yuan, you heartless bastard! You irresponsible scumbag! You played with my feelings, slept with me, and then ran away…”

Qi Yi launched into a full-on tirade.

---

At a banquet, drinks flowed as people toasted one another.
In the corner, Purple Fate Daxue raised her eyebrows at Blood Robe.
“What do you think of that girl just now? Her assets rivaled those of Anxun Deer, and her big butt is quite perky. Her personality is as shy as Purple Fate Xiaolu’s, but based on my experience, those types of girls…”

“Have a hidden side?”

“Exactly! You’re quick with words today!” Daxue teased.

“Flattery won’t work on me.
As a woman, how dare you define other women? You only have the biology of a woman!” Qi Yuan was about to unleash a verbal attack and strip Daxue of her “womanhood.”

“Tsk tsk, I define women, and now you define me, huh?
Isn’t everyone equal? Why can’t women be defined, but I can?” Daxue lazily countered.

Once again, Qi Yuan was left speechless, his face flushed.

“See, your problem is that you’re too uptight. If that girl tried to hit on me like that, I’d have already given her my contact info and invited her out for a night walk,” Daxue laughed heartily.

“Not interested,” Qi Yuan shook his head. “I’m not that desperate.”

“I thought you believed in equality. So what, are you going to make her your wife?” Daxue mocked. “Isn’t it common for men to leave a brothel with a woman and call her the first friend they’ve ever made?”

“…” Qi Yuan decided to ignore Purple Fate Daxue.
She was full of nonsense.

And besides, he wasn’t good with words anyway.

Just then, Qi Yuan’s face suddenly changed.

Noticing the shift in his expression, Daxue’s face grew serious. She whispered, “What’s wrong?”

“My mortal enemy has arrived in the Supreme Truth Celestial Realm!” Qi Yuan replied gravely.

“Your enemy? Who is it?” Daxue’s expression tensed.

“Why is she still chasing me, even after I’ve come to the Sixth Heaven?” Qi Yuan sighed. “They say women are naturally loving, but I only owe her three hundred thousand… It’s not like I don’t plan to pay her back. Yet, she’s chased me all the way to the Sixth Heaven, spreading rumors that I’m a scumbag who doesn’t take responsibility.”

Hearing this, Daxue relaxed and laughed, covering her mouth. “So, it’s just a creditor. You scared me for nothing. How much do you owe?”

“Not much, just three hundred thousand… Sigh,” Qi Yuan continued. “Turns out, if you want a woman to remember you forever, don’t be good to her. Just owe her money.”

“Three hundred thousand immortal jade? Tsk tsk, if you owed me that much, I’d be sleeping in your bed every night!” Daxue teased.

Three hundred thousand immortal jade was a massive sum, even for Purple Fate Daxue.

“Alright, I’d better go find her before she reports me. If she puts me on the blacklist, I’ll be labeled a deadbeat.
Even though I don’t need to use the airlines, being called a deadbeat doesn’t suit my refined image.”

With that, Qi Yuan’s figure vanished.

“What a boring day,” Purple Fate Daxue muttered as she picked up her drink.

---

Meanwhile, Qi Yi stood with her hands on her hips, shouting at the sky.
Yu Mengxian looked somewhat embarrassed but didn’t stop her.
As childish as it seemed, it might actually work.

Just then, a helpless voice echoed from the air.

“Hey, girl, I only owe you three hundred thousand. Why are you spreading lies about me?”

Upon hearing that familiar voice, Yu Mengxian’s expression changed, and Qi Yi’s flushed face turned an even deeper shade of red.

In front of them stood Qi Yuan, dressed in black, tall and imposing.

“Qi… Qi Yuan!” Qi Yi hadn’t expected that cursing him would actually summon him.

“Greetings, Senior!” Yu Mengxian felt like she was in a dream and quickly bowed.

“You call me Senior, yet you’ve slandered me and damaged my reputation. I’ll pay you back two hundred ninety-nine thousand nine hundred and ninety. I’ll knock off ten coins for emotional distress,” Qi Yuan mused, deciding to short her by a small amount.

After all, he didn’t dare underpay too much.
There were far too many cases of people killing over unpaid debts.

Still wearing her tight outfit, Qi Yi’s face turned even redder as she hurried to explain, “I didn’t mean to curse you. I just wanted to…”

“Oh, so you’re not here for money?” Qi Yuan sighed with relief.
After all, he didn’t have the money right now. If Qi Yi had come to collect, it would’ve been embarrassing.

“Senior…” Yu Mengxian started to say something when a mocking voice interrupted.

“Well, well, it seems your Celestial Sovereign cares for you quite a bit, personally visiting my grandfather to negotiate.
But right now, they’re playing chess, so it’ll be a while before he can leave.”

As the voice trailed off, seven or eight figures appeared.

The one leading them was none other than the arrogant Tuoba Lingyu.

She swept her gaze over Qi Yi, inspecting her as if she were a commodity.
But soon, her eyes shifted from Qi Yi to Qi Yuan.

“Your bloodline…” She widened her eyes in delight, inhaling deeply. “What a wonderful scent!”

Her expression was one of pure fascination, as if she had just discovered a priceless gem.

Qi Yuan’s eyes widened in disbelief. “Are you sexually harassing me?”

He found that he preferred more gentle and refined women.
Bullhorn Lady and this bizarre woman were people he wanted to stay far away from.

“I thought Fengling Holy Land had one treasure, but it turns out there are two!” Tuoba Lingyu gazed at Qi Yuan with an intense, almost obsessive look.

Qi Yuan felt incredibly awkward.
It was the first time someone had called him a treasure upon their first meeting. What next, was she going to ask to see his legs?

Seeing this, Yu Mengxian quickly sent a message to Qi Yuan, “Senior, this woman is from the Mixed-Blood Sect…”

She explained the situation to Qi Yuan.

After hearing this, Qi Yuan’s expression remained calm.

Not only was this woman strange, but she was also involved in human trafficking.
He found her even more repulsive.

“This is my sister, so I’d appreciate it if you dropped this matter,” Qi Yuan said, trying to remain low-profile as he prepared to comprehend the Supreme Truth. He didn’t want to attract too much attention and risk being discovered by Taihuang Palace.

“Give you face…?” Tuoba Lingyu sneered, her mocking smile widening. “A mere Yin God from the Second Heaven, what kind of face do you think you deserve?”

“You…” Qi Yuan wanted to reveal his true identity.
But on second thought, being from the lower realm and still a Purple Palace cultivator, it might be better to keep quiet.

Tuoba Lingyu glanced at Yu Mengxian. “I’m taking these two with me. If you interfere… Fengling Holy Land won’t have a bright future.”

The Mythic Realm cultivators behind Tuoba Lingyu glared at Qi Yuan and the others with hostility.

“Hey, one immortal jade isn’t enough to buy me. Besides, you called me a treasure, didn’t you? And treasures are priceless,” Qi Yuan said, trying to resolve the situation peacefully.

He needed to improve his rhetoric—he couldn’t keep losing arguments to Bullhorn Lady.

“One piece of immortal jade…? That’s an insult. You don’t get it, do you? Or are you just stupid?” Tuoba Lingyu looked at Qi Yuan as if he were an idiot.

To her, even speaking to Qi Yuan was giving him more attention than he deserved.

After all, people like him were just livestock to be bled dry.

“You…” Qi Yuan was getting frustrated.
How could there be someone so vile in this world?
How could someone have such a venomous tongue?
He wasn’t hurt, but he was deeply irritated!

“Wearing something so revealing… and showing off three breasts, what’s the meaning of this?
Morals are in decline, and you’re offending my eyes. You deserve death!”
Suddenly, a voice rang out as a Yang God appeared, casting a glance at Tuoba Lingyu with disgust.
With a single slap, he crushed Tuoba Lingyu to death.

The Mythic Realm cultivators around her didn’t even have time to react before they, too, were killed by the slap.

It all happened so quickly.
They had been arguing, and suddenly, a Yang God appeared and killed Tuoba Lingyu.

The power of a Yang God was undeniable.
Mythic Realm cultivators were like ants to them.

Killing them took no effort at all.

The Yang God glanced at Qi Yuan, then said with a feigned indifference, “I just happened to be passing by. I’m not helping you.”

At that moment, a furious roar echoed from the sky.

“How dare you kill my granddaughter?!”

A terrifying figure appeared in the Supreme Truth Celestial Realm, radiating bloodthirsty energy that filled the sky.

The entire world seemed to be soaked in blood.

That terrifying figure’s gaze locked onto Qi Yuan and the others.

It was none other than the Mixed-Blood Sect’s ancestor, Shenxue Celestial Sovereign!

Upon seeing him, Qi Yuan’s face turned tense, and he quickly said, “It wasn’t me! I had nothing to do with it. It was that Yang God over there! I don’t even know him, and I definitely don’t know he’s called Devil Eye!”
