Chapter 3 - Chapter 3: What Was So Wrong in Demanding Payment for work Done

When Lian Qi died in her previous life, she had already successfully formed her golden core, and her medical skill was in the peak of the fifth grade. With the previous life experience, it was even easier for her to save Lu Tianfeng now.

But she was hesitant.

Three Thousand Worlds had never been a safe place. Surrounded by demons and devils, lusted after by many kinds of beasts. There was also never have any shortage of struggles between human cultivators.

After her rebirth, Lian Qi could leave Qingfeng Valley. But she, with only Qi Condensation cultivation, could not protect herself in this Three Thousand World. So she chose to stay and cultivate diligently. Because only that way she could become strong enough to survive in this world.

Lian Qi carefully thought about the impending great change. It could be said that if not for Lu Tianfeng already cured of his poison and recovered his cultivation, then he wouldn't be able to move in time to call for strong saviors from Qingyun Palace. Then, it was almost certain that the entire Qingfeng Valley would have been destroyed. And the ending for the sect's disciples was either captured as the demons' slave or died without an intact corpse. At the time, when Lian Qi saved Lu Tianfeng, it was actually equivalent to saving herself.

But …

Lian Qi remembered the words she heard in her last consciousness when she died in her previous life: "Your senior sister Mo Yunxi has good luck and is the heaven's darling. Anyone who might take over her luck will be punished. How pitiful, how pitiful."

Lian Qi didn't know who was speaking to her. After rebirth, she repeatedly pondered over these words. When she carefully traced past events, every time she got bad luck, and even when she died at the end, were indeed seemed to be related to Mo Yunxi . To be precise, every time she couldn't help but reach out to her hands to save the men destined to love Mo Yunxi in the future, then she would meet bad luck.

Was this also because of Mo Yunxi 's luck? Because Lian Qi saved those people, that would probably make them feeling grateful to her instead of Mo Yunxi ?

"Hey …" Lian Qi was deep in her thought when she suddenly heard Lan Zhuxuan whispering to her: "How come? She is just standing in front of Qingyun Palace's young master, then got scared and fainted. In the end, she did nothing but still could get gratitude from the young master. This karmic relationship…. Is really a bargain."

Lian Qi was stupefied. She looked up at Lu Tianfeng, who was enduring this hour's poison pain. He was in the middle of giving the sect head explanation. Lu Tianfeng's explanation was pretty much emphasized by how Mo Yunxi bravely stood in front of him. He was injured and poisoned and finally managed to take Mo Yunxi to escape from the claws of a devil beast two ranks higher than his cultivation. After he finished explaining, Lu Tianfeng's gaze fell on the pale face of the still unconscious girl. The eyes that originally cold seemed to be softened.

——She got it!

Lian Qi suddenly realized. Cultivators greatly care about the karmic relationship of cause and effect. A heart demon planted during the Qi Condensation stage might bring a future doom during the Great Ascension stage.

And so...

When Lian Qi saved the men who had a karmic relationship with Mo Yunxi without asking for a reward, she took Mo Yunxi 's luck. Thus she met bad luck. So she…

Lian Qi suddenly made up her mind. Lu Tianfeng must be saved. The small realm where Qingfeng Valley was located was on the Three Thousand Worlds' eastern edge, bordering on the Demon Realm and The Devil Ream. The fifth-rank devil beast that hurts Lu Tianfeng did not appear accidentally. Without Lu Tianfeng, the entire Qingfeng Valley will be finished. Lian Qi couldn't escape by herself. However, she can cut off the karmic ties between herself and Lu Tianfeng!

The young man's face was still pale, painfully tasting the torments of ten thousand needles on his bones. His clothes heavy with sweat, he has never been in a more difficult situation. After being poisoned, his cultivation was suppressed, and now equivalent to Qi Condensation. In his current condition, half cultivators in Qingfeng Valley would probably be able to beat him.

As the young master of Qingyun Palace, his cultivation talent was very high. His vision was also extraordinary. He knew that a fierce battle will soon arrive, so he should recover as soon as possible. But…

Looking at the entire Qingfeng Valley, the most powerful sect leader was no higher than a Golden Core cultivator. Afraid that here, no one has the ability to detoxify him. Qingyun Palace was far away from here, and even his storage space item was damaged by the devil beast, so he couldn't ask his sect for help. This time, every single thing pointed to disaster.

Of course, Lu Tianfeng would not mention his worries to the people from Qingfeng Valley. He didn't even put the sect leader in his eyes. His gaze fell on Mo Yunxi 's face. He remembered how this girl dared to stand fearlessly between him and a fifth-rank devil beast, and that even though she was so scared that her face was pale white, still she gritted her teeth and persisted.

Lu Tianfeng's eyes became soft. He would protect Mo Yunxi even if he has to risk his life. This brave girl was the most beautiful, the most kindhearted, and the purest girl he ever met…

"I can cure your poison."

At this moment, a girl's cold and clear voice rang from his side. The voice was a bit soft and sweet. Lu Tianfeng turned his head and saw the blue-robed Lian Qi walking out of the crowd.

Eh?

He frowned at Lian Qi, who was obviously just a Qi Condensation cultivator.

Who is this woman?

Does she know how bad his poison is and how many injuries he suffered?

Is she … intentionally attracting his attention?

Lu Tianfeng frowned slightly. As the young master of Qingyun Palace, such a thing was naturally not uncommon. Whether it was the disciples from Qingyun Palace or the smaller affiliated sects, there would always be young and beautiful women who tried to attract his attention using various ways.

But before he could speak, he heard the girl continue: "I can cure you, but …" Lian Qi paused, her pair of big, clear eyes were looking directly at Lu Tianfeng.

She continued calmly: "I demand monetary payment."
