The Unruly Immortals

When Zhao Shuangdian and Qing Wanglai stood facing each other, their people stood behind their respective leaders, and the atmosphere in the study room became extremely tense.

As an outsider, Yi Donglai looked on at everything before him with hesitation, seemingly pondering what this scene truly signified.

Qing Wanglai suddenly chuckled, looked at Zhao Shuangdian and said, "I have my secrets, and I have the right not to tell you. I suggest we put this issue aside. After all, no matter who dies, it will only harm our subsequent encounters, won't it?"

"Zhao Shuangdian, don't forget our previous cooperation. Don't let this small, unproven matter delay the big picture, wouldn't you say?"

Zhao Shuangdian didn't speak immediately, standing still as if balancing something in her heart.

She remained silent, and it was Li Huowang who spoke first, stepping forward, "You didn't just kill Zuo Qiuyong, did you? When the Fate Commander Qian Fu died, it was related to you too, wasn't it?"

Li Huowang advanced step by step, stopping right in front of Qing Wanglai, staring intently into his eyes. "You also want the Heavenly Dao of Death, don't you? Even if Qian Fu was on your side, you didn't hesitate to act for the Heavenly Dao!"

"Qing Wanglai, you're truly cold-blooded!"

"Too bad, Qian Fu may have seemed foolish, but he wasn't truly foolish. What you didn't expect was that he had already given the Heavenly Dao of Death to Wu Sheng Old Mother by the time Zhao Shuangdian came to help!" Li Huowang held Yang Na's hand tightly.

"San Qing, why are you so greedy? Why do you want everything? What are you planning to do by seizing so many Heavenly Daos? Whose side are you really on?"

Qing Wanglai bowed his head slightly, the reflective lenses of his glasses obscuring his eyes. "Of course I'm on our side, there's no doubt about that, but I have my plan, which I can't tell you."

"Why? I just want to know why!! Is it because you are in charge of the secret Heavenly Dao! So, you act mysteriously all day? Others are already at your doorstep, and you're still hiding!!"

"Because I don't trust you, I don't trust you, the lunatic, why should I tell you?" Qing Wanglai's words made Li Huowang freeze on the spot.

"Heh heh... you don't trust me..." Li Huowang kept shaking his head, slowly retreating. "Heh heh... you don't trust me again... I should have realized earlier..."

"That's right, I don't trust you. Is that okay now?" Qing Wanglai asked Li Huowang softly with a smile.

"I have my own plans, and besides, aren't we standing together now because the situation compels us? My plan shouldn't have to be told to you, right?"

"Moreover, you've already joined Zhao Shuangdian's side, so do I still need your consent for anything?"

Noticing the growing fierceness in Li Huowang's expression, Chen Hongyu came over to mediate, "Alright, alright, stop arguing. You haven't even fought yet, and you're already at each other's throats?"

"Didn't we come here today to cure Li Huowang? How did we drift further and further from the topic? Let's focus on the main issue."

Upon hearing this, everyone simultaneously turned to Yi Donglai, who was sitting there with a notebook, seemingly recording something continuously.

"What are you writing? Stop taking notes, hurry up and finish the treatment so we can leave." Just as the topic in the room shifted to Li Huowang's condition, a call to wait halted everyone.

The call to wait came from Li Huowang, who, just moments prior, had been shaking his head, but now looked at Qing Wanglai with an expression of intense hatred and disgust.

"Not just Zuo Qiuyong and Qian Fu! What you've done extends far beyond them! You've been preparing for this for a long time! I'm finally seeing it!"

"Whatever plans I have are my own business and have nothing to do with you, right, Li Huowang?" Qing Wanglai said with a smile.

"Nothing to do with me? Really nothing to do with me? Then why did you change my name! Why did you steal the 'Huowang' from my name!"

"You didn't just target Zuo Qiuyong and Qian Fu, you've been targeting me for a long time too!" As he spoke, Li Huowang's expression became increasingly fierce. "And you used your Heart Pan Zhuge Yuan's hands to do it!! Speak! What did you take from me!!"

Li Huowang was certain that the Fate Commander's name missing a word was not a simple matter. San Qing's intentions were immense, and the missing "Huowang" surely represented something important!!

"Hey, don't be like that, we're all on the same side, let's sit down and talk it over slowly." Wu Qi came over to mediate.

"Sister Wu, you're helping him? Five worlds are too many, you can't handle them all as a Fate Commander, can you? San Qing even had Zhuge Yuan establish a Buddha statue in Zhengde Temple! You're still helping him! Don't you think he hasn't secretly tampered with your Heavenly Dao?"

Thinking of the altar above, with Zhuge Yuan marked with Cinnabar between the eyebrows, Li Huowang wished he could flay the San Qing before him.

Zhuge Yuan was his brother, but San Qing treated him like a puppet, manipulating and exploiting him at will!! Even after Zhuge Yuan's death, he continued to use Zhuge Yuan's reputation for saving Da Qi to usurp the Heavenly Dao of Five Wisdom Tathagatas!

He insulted Zhuge Yuan and treated himself like a fool!

"I don't know what you're talking about. Li Huowang, your illness is getting worse, you should receive treatment soon."

Li Huowang shook his head, "No, what you're doing is far more important than my condition! If your plans aren't addressed, the entire White Jade Capital could disappear because of you!"

"Growth, death! Confusion! Flesh and blood! Do you think I haven't seen through it? You've been scheming to steal all our Heavenly Daos! Even killing us all isn't beyond you! It's been the same from the start! You want everything!"

Zhao Shuangdian quickly calculated, and the sound of clapping reverberated throughout the study.

Hearing Li Huowang's words, everyone in the room turned to Qing Wanglai, waiting for his explanation.

"I really don't know what you're talking about. Everyone, do you really believe him and not me?" Qing Wanglai pushed up the glasses on his nose.

"Do you all truly think I would kill you all, just for the Heavenly Dao he mentioned?"

"Heh." Ba Nanxu and her brother laughed as they came to stand behind Li Huowang, "Although he's insane, I've gotten to know him a little through our interactions. I don't think he has the intelligence to make up such a huge lie to deceive us."

Wu Qi looked hesitantly at Qing Wanglai, "Qing Wanglai, could you tell us what your plan is? Is it really related to the Heavenly Dao Li Huowang mentioned? Just say it, and the misunderstanding will naturally be resolved."

Under the gaze of everyone, Qing Wanglai took out two dice and, with his long, slender, white fingers, spun them rapidly between them.
