Chapter 71: 068 Mind Technique Four (Xie Chun, Alliance Hierarch of the Nine Lotus Lanterns)
On the outskirts of Suiyang, the grassland rolled with gentle hills, slightly withered yellow, clumps of trees scattered like eczema, marking the land.
The stream flowed gently, with the bright White Star in the night sky as its only source of light.
The White Star was the moon of Earth-Moon, reflecting the sole light of a distant star.
Zheng Qingrong was woken by a cool evening breeze, slowly sitting up, only to realize that she was lying on a sloping hillside, surrounded by darkness with only the meandering stream stretching into the distance.
A tall and burly figure stood not far from her, quietly staring at her.
“You’re awake,” Li Chengyi said in a low, deep voice.
“Who are you?! Why am I here??” Zheng Qingrong quickly scrambled to her feet, on the alert, checking her clothes.
She wore a black, body-hugging long-sleeve shirt and pants for convenience in movement. Although the outfit revealed her figure a bit too tightly, she didn’t have to worry about her sleeves or pant legs getting caught.
As someone who had trained in freestyle combat for a few years and was proficient in close-quarters combat with cold weapons, Zheng Qingrong had been prepared to resort to violence from the moment she saw her sister’s corpse.
But, unfortunately, she overestimated her strength. When faced with three burly security guards who chased after her, she was quickly injured after just a few exchanges. Had it not been for someone helping her covertly, she might have been captured not long into her escape.
After a period of fleeing, she was eventually caught and brutally beaten.
Then came the scene witnessed by Li Chengyi, where she was punched and kicked until she briefly lost consciousness.

“Where are those three men? What kind of game are you playing?!” Zheng Qingrong demanded coldly.
Li Chengyi didn’t answer, just slowly approached her.
Only when he came closer did Zheng Qingrong get a clear look at his strange attire.
He was clad in purple-black metallic armor, even his head covered by a fully enclosed special helmet. The faceplate, covering his eyes as well, was made from a crystal-like purple-red material. From the outside, one could only see two diamond-shaped eyes.
The entire surface of the armor was intricately engraved with Wisteria flower patterns, clusters and clusters of them, looking both complicated and mysteriously elegant.
Just as Zheng Qingrong managed to see his peculiar dress, a gust of malicious wind hit her.
Poof!
Her body instantly curled up like a cooked shrimp, her abdomen struck by a vicious punch.
The severe pain and suffocation made her involuntarily vomit.
Thud.
She was then kicked to the ground and rolled several times down the grassy slope, curling up in a ball.
“So you want revenge?” Li Chengyi said. “I guess you won’t have the chance.”
From the mouths of those three burly men, he had gotten some inside information.
“The order from above was to dispose of you completely. Should I just bury you here or toss you into the river with stones to weigh you down?” He slowly strode towards Zheng Qingrong.
“You’ll… rot…” Zheng Qingrong pulled herself up, breathing laboriously. She realized this man was from Tie Feng.
“That’s your weakness,” Li Chengyi said indifferently. “Your sister got what she deserved, knowing she was pretty yet insisting on dressing up and going alone to a late-night bar, staying out late.
It’s like a piece of juicy meat presenting itself to predators without knowing how to protect itself…”
“Shut up!!!”
Suddenly, Zheng Qingrong yelled with all her might, lunged at Li Chengyi, and threw a punch.
Her punch hit Li Chengyi’s chest hard.
The fist naturally could not break through the Floral Dress, producing only a clang of impact.
Instead, Zheng Qingrong’s own fist quickly turned red.
Li Chengyi remained unmoved, but beneath his helmet, his expression had shifted ever so slightly.
Evil Rage +1.
Evil Rage +1.
Evil Rage +1.
Evil Rage +1…
The Gladiolus, having just completed an evolution upgrade, was now ramping up its Evil Thoughts progress wildly.
A rapid stream of prompt messages surged from the source of Evil Flower.
In just a few seconds, it shot up from 0% to 17%!
This kind of stacking, if followed by the completion of the final elimination step, could be permanently retained…
“Even if I stood here and let you hit me, you couldn’t do anything,” Li Chengyi continued.
“You’re too weak.”
“Like the weeds on the ground, they can easily be trampled underfoot.”
“You think you can protect your sister all by yourself? You can’t even protect yourself. Your sister was foolish, and you are even more so. Perhaps this is the very nature of how society operates.”
“Eliminating the likes of you, allowing smarter and stronger individuals to survive and continue the lineage. This is the law of survival of the fittest…”
“Shut up!!! I told you to shut up!!” Zheng Qingrong shouted again and attacked Li Chengyi with a flurry of punches and kicks.
But it was futile.
The Wisteria Floral Dress, having gone through an evolution, was now strong enough to directly withstand close-range handgun fire.
She couldn’t damage it with her random pounding.
Evil Rage +1.
Evil Rage +1.
Evil Rage +1.
The Evil Thoughts soared madly, quickly reaching 36%.
Li Chengyi, looking at the seemingly mad Zheng Qingrong, finally understood that quality was a better choice than quantity.
Seeking high-quality ‘fertilizer’ was the true path to evolution.
“What use is it to scream now? I’m standing right here; can you kill me? No, aside from crying out, there’s nothing you can do.”
“After you die, the Tie Feng Group will move on to your relatives and friends, all because they were implicated by you and your sister.”
“Then what? What can you do? Scream like a fool and then rush up to flail and bite?”
