Becoming an Immortal Emperor, All Thanks to the Efforts of My Enemies

Chapter 3



Chapter 3: Is Enemy Number One Done For?

After Liu Shunyi arrived at the dining hall, he made a dreadful discovery.

His precious spirit stones had been cleaned out by that damn Shen Kaiyang!

Even the points he earned as a servant disciple were swiped by Shen Kaiyang!

Right now, he was as broke as a church mouse.

Liu Shunyi felt miserable.

He cursed Shen Kaiyang to death in his heart.

But now, the question was—what to do?

He can’t exactly starve to death, right?

Liu Shunyi paced back and forth at the entrance of the dining hall.

Finally, he let out a helpless sigh.

In the world of cultivation, borrowing money is pretty much impossible.

And finding a good person? Forget it.

As for eating…

Liu Shunyi could only eye the wild vegetables by the roadside.

He casually snatched some up.

“Damn it, I must be the most unfortunate transmigrant in history!”

Liu Shunyi’s inner self was crying rivers.

But, compared to before, he felt a lot better now.

At least he still had his cheat!

As long as his enemies were alive, he’d have his day to shine.

Seeing that he had gathered enough wild vegetables, Liu Shunyi quickly left.

He had to admit, as a cultivator, digging up wild vegetables by the roadside attracted quite a few strange looks.

It was honestly quite embarrassing.

But given the lack of food, Liu Shunyi dashed to the back mountain to hunt some wild game.

After filling his belly, he had time to spare.

Liu Shunyi headed straight back to the servant disciple quarters.

First thing on his agenda? Earning some points.

“Bro, I’ll help you out! Just give me three points!”

Liu Shunyi approached some servant disciples and directly asked.

Those disciples, upon hearing this, seemed a bit intrigued.

Thus began Liu Shunyi’s mad working spree.

He slacked off not one bit; in fact, he was extremely efficient.

This left the others dumbfounded.

Afterward, Liu Shunyi took on several more servant jobs.

Once he was done, he decided to stop taking more work.

On one hand, Cui Hao couldn’t keep up.

On the other, working like a lunatic without showing any signs of fatigue was bound to raise some eyebrows.

Liu Shunyi ended up panting, his face flushed and his clothes drenched in sweat.

Of course, that was all an act.

But the results were fantastic.

By the end of the day, he earned thirty points.

According to Qinglian Sect’s prices, that was thirty bucks!

Liu Shunyi: “……”

Damn!

Liu Shunyi slammed the table angrily.

This place was simply unlivable.

At least tomorrow, he could go to the dining hall for a meal.

Thirty points meant he could finally treat himself to a proper meal!

Just thinking about it made Liu Shunyi’s stomach growl.

In these past few days of labor, transferring negative states and absorbing the light from their names had been incredibly beneficial for him.

Let’s put it this way.

Now, Liu Shunyi was practically a practitioner at the Qi Refinement Third Stage.

One punch could probably take down a cow.

Easy-peasy.

But of course, this also meant he had a giant appetite.

“This won’t do!”

With a cheat in hand, Liu Shunyi started planning his next steps.

First off, he needed to upgrade his cultivation.

Hmm.

Though Shen Kaiyang’s name still hadn’t recovered its brightness, the benefits of shared low-grade spiritual roots were still at play.

Liu Shunyi gulped down some water and dove into intense training.

Perhaps it was due to his enhanced physique, this time when he absorbed spiritual energy from the heavens and earth, nothing tore in his meridians.

“Heh, that kicks Cui Hao right in the gut!”

Liu Shunyi sneered, not saying much more as he continued training.

……

……

The next morning, Liu Shunyi woke up early.

Looking at Cui Hao’s dim name, he felt a bit melancholic.

“This year’s enemies are the worst I’ve ever encountered!”

Liu Shunyi grumbled.

But on the bright side, his relentless work over the past few days meant the servant disciple quarters was surprisingly quiet.

A few servant disciples were chatting amongst themselves.

With nothing else to do, Liu Shunyi grabbed a handful of sunflower seeds to join in.

“Hey, hey, have you guys heard? That Shen Shixiong who used to rob us all? He’s done for!”

At this, everyone froze for a second.

But then, it was absolute catharsis.

Someone was even ready to rush down the mountain to repay a favor.

There were smiles all around.

“Awesome! I don’t know which immortal got us this vengeance, but if I ever meet him, I’ll gladly bow in thanks!”

Liu Shunyi listened quietly, but he still asked casually.

“How did it happen? Any news? Is there a chance he can recover?”

One of the servant disciples shook his head.

“Word is, all of his meridians are severed. He’ll never be able to cultivate again. As for recovery, well, only top-tier healing pills can do it.”

“Shen Kaiyang is just a low-grade spiritual root outer disciple at best. Who would waste top-tier pills on him?”

Liu Shunyi nodded, a look of satisfaction appearing on his face.

This wasn’t just acting; he genuinely felt pleased.

But he still needed to find a more formidable enemy!

Though not too formidable.

Because if he offends someone too powerful, they might just swat him like a fly!

And he had no idea if his enemies could take a hit for him.

Liu Shunyi dared not joke about that.

This was something that required careful planning.

Right now, the most urgent thing was to earn some money.

But the servant disciples had exhausted all their tasks.

He needed to find a better moneymaking opportunity.

His only option was to find work in the outer sect.

But right now, Liu Shunyi didn’t dare step foot there.

Because one wrong move could get him hurt by those outer sect duelists.

“Damn it, still too weak!”

But with all these servants around, Liu Shunyi decided to simply ask.

“Brothers, my quota for the month was cleaned out by Shen Kaiyang. I’m broke. Please, any tips for a way out?”

The other servants looked at Liu Shunyi with some sympathy.

But one of them suddenly spoke up with some advice.

“Bro, I see you’re pretty strong. How about I hook you up with a job?”

“But bro, it’s a split of five-five, and it’s a big job!”

Liu Shunyi was stunned.

“Brother, is this job legit?”

That servant disciple chuckled.

“What, you want to make money, right? This job is super profitable!”

Liu Shunyi looked at this disciple with skepticism.

“Can you just spill the beans?”

The servant disciple waved him over.

Liu Shunyi hurried over.

The disciple whispered something.

Immediately, Liu Shunyi waved him off.

“No way, no way! I can’t do that.”

At the same time, Liu Shunyi felt dumbfounded.

Seriously? This guy was definitely trying to set him up for failure.

With a name like that, even the Dao Golden Scroll had it listed.

What shocked Liu Shunyi was that while Shen Kaiyang and Cui Hao had merely white glows around their names, this guy, Zhang Erhu, had a freaking green glow!

Wow, Zhang Erhu, huh? You’re quite the hidden gem.

Of course, Liu Shunyi’s guard was immediately up.

He had no idea what the green glow meant.

But he was sure it wasn’t the mark of just any servant disciple.

This guy could not simply be a servant; it was more likely he was an undercover from another sect!
