Inner Demons

Chapter 81: Courting Death

Li Yunxin stood up, sighed slightly, and slapped him.

He had carefully controlled his strength to prevent himself from slapping him to death and causing more trouble. He just wanted to interrupt him so he could think properly.

But even so, the young Taoist boy let out a grunt, was dizzy from being slapped, spun around, and fell to the ground with a thud.

A circle of rogue Taoist priests widened their eyes, watching this scene.

Li Yunxin sat down again and pondered his plan.

This sound alarmed the several important figures at the front, who frowned slightly and turned back to look.

They saw the young Taoist boy scrambling to his feet, spinning around, and covering his face as if looking for someone to look at. But as soon as he saw their eyes, he quickly stood up straight and put his hand down.

"What's wrong?" Xuan Chengzi scolded him in a low voice.

"I... The wind and rain are heavy..." The young Taoist priest gritted his teeth, pursed his lips, and was about to cry from anger, "I fell myself."

Xuan Chengzi glared at him, then looked at Li Yunxin.Li Yunxin smiled at him. Then he mouthed the words—

"Hit me."

Xuan Chengzi's face flushed red instantly, and he turned his head away resentfully.

Shi Kuizi quickly pulled Li Yunxin's sleeve: "You child..."

She whispered, "You child, why are you so, so..."

"Auntie, you know that mischievous children are hard to manage." Li Yunxin saw her expression and sighed, "He's so annoying and nagging. I don't want to fuss with a mischievous child, and I don't want to use force. But if I advise him, he'll defeat me with his rich experience. What else can I do?"

Shi Kuizi also sighed: "Alas, I... Alas. But you're making it difficult for your master. You're a good child, but what he said just now, although he might not do it, it will always make things difficult for you later..."

Li Yunxin smiled and shook his head: "You're mistaken. What he said just now is not that he might not do it, but that he will definitely do it. You are a kind person and may not think the worst of people. But those people like to go to extremes when dealing with people who are not on the same level as them."

"For example, I won't advise that mischievous child not to nag, I'll just slap him to interrupt him - simple and violent."

"As for them, they won't think about 'teaching us a lesson' to 'make us remember' - crushing people like us is like crushing an ant, so they just crush us. It's not difficult, why bother to put in other thoughts?"

"Either they don't bother to pay attention to you at all, or they want to go to extremes. This is the style of me and that group of people. Neither of us is a good person, we know each other well."

He had already thought of some things, so he was in the mood to chat with Shi Kuizi.

Shi Kuizi heard his words, and several people nearby also heard them. The young Taoist priest walked over resentfully, covering his face, and also heard the last few sentences.

For a moment, they were all a little surprised - Hunyuanzi's young Taoist boy could actually say such things.

It didn't sound like something he could say at all!

Xuan Chengzi's young Taoist boy gritted his teeth, held back his tears, pointed at him and trembled: "Good, good, good, you know it well, you—"

Li Yunxin then introduced him as if to him, reaching out his palm: "Auntie, look. This is what it's like. A child his age has almost no sense of right and wrong, and their heart can be the cruellest, and their actions can be the cruellest. Sometimes campus bullying - oh, you don't know what that means - is done by children this age. Just like today, they did it, or they wanted to do it, and no one could control or punish them, there's no fair and just environment, what should we do?"

"Then let's kill them." Li Yunxin turned to the young Taoist boy, "For example, a little brat like this - a child is disobedient and always likes to harm people, what should we do? Just beat them to death. Well, look, you and your master are planning to kill us, and now I'm not happy. So I plan to kill you and your master in a little while. Let's make a bet, do you dare to bet?"

When Li Yunxin spoke at this time, his whole body exuded a fierce aura.

The "fierce aura" and "killing aura" of ordinary people are a kind of "momentum".

But the "fierce aura" emanating from a person like him actually contains some Spiritual Power. It is truly frightening.

When the young Taoist boy saw his eyes, he finally felt a little scared. He stretched out his hand and couldn't speak, only trembling out two or three more "you, you, you" before quickly walking away.

Li Yunxin then sat down again with a normal expression.

At this time... Shi Kuizi just looked at him and didn't speak. The rogue Taoist priests around him also didn't speak. Although they only cultivated some minor techniques, they could still more or less feel some Spiritual Power.

So they all felt the real fierce aura on Li Yunxin.

It was only at this time that they realized that this "young Taoist boy" who seemed different... might not really just be a Taoist boy.

Li Yunxin thought for a moment and smiled at Shi Kuizi: "Alright. Let's talk about it."

"Actually, I'm not Hunyuanzi's Taoist boy. Originally, I planned to stay in Weicheng for a few more days, but recently, it seems I can't stay. But I have a good impression of the old Taoist."

"So I'm more afraid that someone will trouble this old Taoist after I leave. For example, that Xuan Chengzi - I provoked him once outside the building, and just now I provoked him again. Actually, I did it intentionally - I intentionally made him oppose me so that it would be convenient for me to do some things later. But in this way, he will hate this old Taoist, so for Old Daoist Liu's future consideration, I probably have to kill him... Otherwise, it will be very troublesome. To deal with these people, you have to beat them until they are scared and convinced at once. Otherwise, there will be endless troubles."

Hearing his words, others were even more dumbfounded.

Shi Kuizi was a woman, so her psychological endurance was probably a little stronger. After being dumbfounded, she slowly pondered his words and then frowned: "You... Let's not talk about whether what you said is true or false. It's just your reasoning... Your words are unreasonable..."

"You said you provoked that Xuan Chengzi to make things convenient for yourself." Shi Kuizi frowned, slowly organizing her words, "Then, you were the one who was unreasonable first... But now that you've used him up, you say you're afraid of his endless entanglement and want to kill him... Your reasoning... Are you bullying people?"

Li Yunxin suddenly laughed: "Hahaha. As expected, you are the woman Master likes - with a very proper outlook on life, and I like you very much too."

"That's right, I am bullying people. But he can't do anything about it. Auntie, remember one thing from now on - don't reason with evil people. Unless the environment you are in can support you in reasoning with evil people."

"Good people will not kill me for a small matter. So he is not a good person. Then it is no pity for him to die."

Shi Kuizi finally couldn't help but ask: "Then you... weren't you also seeking to kill for these things?"

Li Yunxin smiled and blinked at him: "So I'm not a good person either. But since you're the woman my master likes, for your sake, I'll give them a chance."

"If they don't court death in a little while, then they won't die, okay?"
