Cultivating Immortality Begins with Acting as a Girl Chapter 120

Jiang Yanliang’s immortal destiny had finally arrived.

Some time ago, an immortal cultivator came to the Jiang family, rescued Jiang Yizhi and Jiang Yanliang, father and son, who were imprisoned in the water dungeon, and helped them seize control of the Jiang family.

After Jiang Yanliang took power, the first thing he did was to imprison the former family head, Jiang Yujin, and spread the word that if Jiang Yuling did not return to the Jiang family within ten days, he would personally execute Jiang Yujin.

Now, it was the last day.

“Eleven whole years, I can’t believe he actually waited for it…”

Song Ling chuckled softly, pondered for a moment, then picked a direction and walked.

He naturally wouldn’t go to the Jiang family directly in the guise of Jiang Yuling. After all, the other side had an immortal cultivator. Even though he had now reached the Heavenly Gang Grandmaster realm, based on his estimation, he was only comparable in strength to a Qi Condensation First Layer cultivator, not to mention that as an immortal cultivator, there were also strange methods like the “True Emotion Charm” that were impossible to guard against. Therefore, he had to be extra careful and make more plans.

…

Night.

Jiang Mansion, Haiyun Hall.

Jiang Yujin was tied up and kneeling in the middle of the main hall, surrounded by collateral members of the Jiang family and high-ranking household managers. At the very front were Jiang Yizhi and Jiang Yanliang, father and son, and a young man in a Daoist robe, sitting calmly on a chair, sipping tea.

The young man looked to be only sixteen or seventeen, but there was an indescribable aura between his brows. Every movement revealed a calmness and composure that did not belong to the mortal world.

Everyone around, including Jiang Yizhi and Jiang Yanliang, looked at him with a hint of reverence.

“Junior Brother Yanliang, this time I am here to take you back to the Daoist temple on Master’s orders. You said you wanted to wait for that Jiang Yuling to return for revenge, so I gave you ten days. Now, this last day is about to pass. I think she won’t be coming back,” the young man said indifferently.

Jiang Yanliang’s expression was not good. He glared hatefully at Jiang Yujin and said coldly:

“Senior Brother Chang, normally these two siblings have a very deep bond. Jiang Yujin, relying on his sister’s martial arts grandmaster strength, took the position of family head and threw my father and me into the water dungeon. That water dungeon is dark and damp, never seeing the light of day all year round, and the cold is bone-chilling. It’s simply not a place for humans to stay. My father and I were trapped in it, suffering torment every day.”

“The water level in the water dungeon often rises, and the icy, bone-chilling water submerges us up to our chests, almost suffocating us. Food is even scarcer, often some moldy steamed buns and sour water. Eating it would cause diarrhea, and our bodies would become extremely weak…”

“Such a great hatred, if I can’t personally send this pair of siblings to the Yellow Springs together, it will be hard to quell the hatred in my heart!”

As Jiang Yanliang’s voice fell, Jiang Yujin, who was kneeling in the hall, raised his head.

At this moment, there was not a single good patch of skin on his body, and even his face was covered in bruises, clearly having undergone a good deal of torture.

He said hoarsely:

“Jiang Yanliang… just based on what you and your father did back then, I didn’t execute you, but only imprisoned you in the water dungeon. That was already out of consideration for us being blood relatives of the Jiang family. What right do you have to resent me?”

Upon hearing this, a twisted, sinister smile flashed across Jiang Yanliang’s face. He suddenly stood up, strode a few steps to Jiang Yujin, kicked him directly over, and said fiercely:

“Right? You are nothing more than a dog beneath my feet now. What right do you have to talk to me about rights? Jiang Yujin, you were once high and mighty, did you ever think there would be a day like this? I’m telling you, today is your death day!”

As Jiang Yanliang spoke, he raised his foot and stepped on Jiang Yujin’s face, grinding it repeatedly, his eyes filled with cruelty and pleasure.

Just then, a hurried sound of footsteps suddenly came from outside the hall. Immediately after, an anxious voice sounded outside the door: “Stop!”

Hearing the sound, everyone turned to look at the door. They saw a woman in a quju-style long dress quickly stepping into the hall. Her face was elegant and gentle, and upon seeing Jiang Yujin’s tragic state in the hall, tears immediately welled up in her eyes.

“Young Master Yujin!”

“Lu Yingzhen?” Jiang Yanliang narrowed his eyes, immediately recognizing the identity of the newcomer.

Lu Yingzhen wiped away her tears, bowed to Jiang Yanliang, and said:

“Young Master Yanliang, Young Master Yujin is, after all, your brother. You are now about to follow an immortal master to cultivate the Dao, so why must you kill him completely and needlessly increase your killing karma?”

Jiang Yanliang’s face immediately turned cold:

“Needlessly increase killing karma? If I don’t kill him, my thoughts will not be clear, so how can I cultivate the Dao?!”

“Lu Yingzhen, you truly have deep feelings for Jiang Yujin… Two years ago at the Southern Garden Gathering, I invited you to tour the Green Pine Lake together, and you refused so decisively. Yet now, you come to plead for a person who is about to die?”

“If you truly like him so much, then why don’t you die in his place?!” A hint of madness appeared on Jiang Yanliang’s face.

He now had an immortal master backing him. Everything in the mortal world could no longer restrain him. Not to mention that Lu Yingzhen’s father was only an Inner Gang Grandmaster, even the current rising star, the leader of the Martial Arts Alliance Army, Palace Master Xia Tianlei of the Hegemon Palace, he wouldn’t care in the slightest!

“I…” Lu Yingzhen froze.

Jiang Yujin suddenly looked up at Lu Yingzhen and said sharply, “My business has nothing to do with you. Get out of here now!”

“Young Master Yujin…”

Lu Yingzhen bit her lip, a hint of sorrow flashing in her eyes. A few breaths later, her expression became resolute, and she said to Jiang Yanliang, “If I die in Young Master Yujin’s place, can Young Master Yanliang spare his life?”

“Lu Yingzhen, you…”

Jiang Yujin was filled with disbelief. He had never imagined that this woman, who had liked him for many years but was never taken seriously by him, would actually be willing to go this far for him?!

“Good, good, good! Since that’s the case, I’ll grant your wish! Let you be a pair of desperate lovers in the Yellow Springs!”

Jiang Yanliang’s eyes were filled with malice, and his entire body’s blood and qi surged. He punched towards Lu Yingzhen!

“Bang!”

Just as Jiang Yanliang’s fist was about to hit Lu Yingzhen’s head, a transparent shield suddenly appeared. His full-force strike landed on it, and the transparent shield remained unmoved.

“What?!” Jiang Yanliang was stunned.

Inside the shield, Lu Yingzhen gritted her teeth and took out a white talisman from her bosom. She bit her tongue and sprayed blood onto it, then threw the talisman towards Senior Brother Chang. The talisman instantly transformed into a stream of light and flew towards Senior Brother Chang. Then, the light flickered slightly, and a flower with eight illusory and one solid, a total of nine petals, bloomed above his head.

“Spirit Detection Talisman?” Senior Brother Chang raised an eyebrow.

This Spirit Detection Talisman could ignore the target’s concealed aura or hidden cultivation and directly display their true cultivation. For example, the flower with eight illusory and one solid petals above his head indicated that he was a Qi Condensation First Layer cultivator.

He looked at Lu Yingzhen, his eyes filled with surprise and uncertainty.

This woman was clearly just a mortal, yet she actually possessed a talisman. Could it be that there was a cultivator standing behind her?

“Miss, this talisman… who gave it to you?”

Senior Brother Chang put down his teacup and asked Lu Yingzhen indifferently.

“I did.”

Before Lu Yingzhen could answer, a clear, cold female voice came from outside the hall.
